Chapter 184: An Idol’s Ethics and Manners

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

“You’ve got balls!” the rock golem roared. “Let’s see how long you can be arrogant for!”

With his body radiating a boundless might, the rock golem charged toward An Lin.

He was renowned throughout the Hall of Creation for his short temper. Now that someone dared to provoke him, of course he had to teach them what pain and agony felt like.

Liu Qianhuan also arrived at the scene of commotion. Seeing the rock golem, her eyes lit up. “Wow! This cosplay is absolutely spot on! Malphite, is that you?!”

She could barely contain her urge to use a combo attack on the rock golem. However, she was scared that she would disturb An Lin’s flex, so she forcefully suppressed this urge.

Although this rock golem was easily angered and acted without thought for consequences, the fact still remained that he was a fearsome cultivator of the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage. Now that he was charging over, An Lin felt immense pressure.

An Lin didn’t dare to take his opponent lightly. Right from the beginning, he used his Divine Inspection and Wind Spirit Technique.

The rock golem’s fist brought with it a powerful might as it cut through the air toward him.

Rings of winds appeared below An Lin’s feet, and his steps were light as he quickly turned his body. The rock golem’s heavy fist scraped past his shoulder.

In the same instant, a white wind shrouded around his Evil-Slaying Sword as it struck out like lightning. Drawing out a pure white moon crescent, it cut toward the rock golem’s arm.

Boom!

The Evil-Slaying Sword collided with the indestructible looking igneous arm. The energy of the collision exploded outwards, blasting the spectating students back.

Immediately afterward, the igneous arm started to fracture and crack open!

Boiling red lava started to seep out from the cracks in the rock golem’s arm.

The rock golem screamed in pain and stumbled back in retreat as a look of shock spread over his face. “Y-you actually have the ability to injure me?!”

He was unable to come to grips with the fact that a student of the Spirit Nurturing Initial Stage could wield such a terrifying sword technique.

An Lin brandished his sword in disappointment. The rock golem was a bit more “thick-skinned” than he anticipated. However, this didn’t make much difference as he was still able to injure the rock golem anyway.

Seeing An Lin injure the rock golem with a single strike, Yao Mingxi and Yao Xiu’s eyes burned with fervor. They were extremely worked up, and they felt as if the anger in their chests had been let out.

The surrounding students also started cheering loudly.

“A representative from the Hall of Creation? God An only needs one strike to defeat you!”

“God An held back his full power. Otherwise, he would’ve been able to settle this battle with a single finger!”

“Having interactions is most important. If God An uses his full power from the get-go, then no one will want to battle with him…”

…

Hearing the discussion of the students, An Lin’s expression remained calm and composed. The rock golem, on the other hand, was startled and enraged.

“Come again!” the rock golem roared. Then, he charged toward An Lin once again.

This time, a red flame burst from his body and enveloped his surroundings. His speed increased significantly, and even his aura became more vast and boundless.

An Lin frowned. He thought that the rock golem would stop after being injured by him.

“Stop!” A roar once again boomed down from the sky.

A white sword shot down from the sky and stabbed into the earth. A powerful wind force was released from this sword, causing the charging rock golem to stop in his tracks.

Seeing this familiar scene, An Lin’s eyes twitched.

He thought back to his battle with Liu Dabao which occurred not long after he entered the university.

Sure enough, a blue-robed male descended from the sky. He flashed his badge and said solemnly, “I’m a member of the university enforcement team. Engaging in private scuffles on university grounds is an extremely abominable act. Are you two the ones involved in the scuffle?”

Saying this, the blue-robed male shifted his gaze toward An Lin and the rock golem.

When he saw the rock golem, his expression suddenly changed. Upon seeing An Lin, his expression changed even more drastically.

F*ck! Why does it have to be him?!

“This isn’t Senior An Lin’s fault! This battle was caused by me. An Lin got involved in order to protect me!” Seeing a member of the university enforcement team arrive, Yao Mingxi instantly shouted in panic.

He definitely couldn’t let his idol become embroiled in this mess because of him.

“You can’t arrest God An! This rock golem clearly slandered him off first!”

“That’s right! Creatures like him should be taught a lesson!”

“I recognize you,” a pretty girl yelled loudly. “You’re Fourth Year, Class One’s Yang Xin! If you dare arrest God An, then don’t even think about chasing Sister Qin Wen anymore!”

…

Looking at the angry crowd, Yang Xin—the blue-robed male—felt a splitting headache. He suddenly felt that he was under immense pressure.

Upon seeing An Lin, he knew that such scenes would unfold.

Ah… How good would it be if An Lin was still the “most connected backdoor entrant” of the past…

Yang Xin sighed miserably in his mind. On one side was the social relationship, on the other side was professional responsibility. As a member of the university enforcement team, he knew that he needed to uphold his duty and obligation.

After all, it was an undeniable fact that the two of them had been involved in a scuffle. As for the cause, that could be further investigated after they were arrested.

As if waiting for An Lin’s input on this, Yang Xin turned his gaze toward him.

An Lin smiled faintly. “It was the rock golem who slandered me off first. Then his actions irked me, so I started to abuse him too. That’s how we got into a tussle. This has nothing to do with anyone else.”

Yang Xin nodded upon hearing this and announced loudly, “According to the relevant rules listed in the regulations of The United University of Cultivation, you two are now under arrest and will be detained in the university detention facility for three days!”

“For what reason are you arresting Senior An Lin? If you want to arrest someone, then arrest me! I was the first one who instigated a fight!” Yao Mingxi’s eyes were bloodshot, and he yelled loudly at Yang Xin.

Yang Xin turned a deaf ear to this and silently handcuffed An Lin.

He knew that An Lin wouldn’t be released even if he arrested Yao Mingxi. Thus, he might as well play deaf and arrest one fewer person.

An Lin also understood this. Instead of having both him and Yao Mingxi arrested, it was better if he took full responsibility for this. At any rate, it was only three days of detainment.

“Brother…,” Yao Xiu sobbed, “Senior An Lin has actually gone to such extents for you.” She was moved to tears by her idol’s selfless actions.

Yao Mingxi’s body trembled as he stared dazedly at An Lin’s disappearing figure.

How could he not understand the reason behind An Lin’s actions?

Right now, he could only clench his fists and bury this feeling of remorse and gratitude deep within his heart.

Although the surrounding students were also indignant as they watched An Lin being led away, they did understand why he had made this decision.

“Yang Xin, just you wait! I’m going to tell this to Sister Qin Wen right now! You’re done for!”

Hearing this, Yang Xin, who was taking the rock golem and An Lin away, staggered and almost fell.

Quickly though, this shout was drowned out by other cries of support for An Lin.

“As expected of my idol, An Lin. He’s so reliable!”

“God An, we all support you!”

“I support you! You’ll be a hero again when you come out…!”

…

All of a sudden, the students all started applauding.

The applause was thunderous, and it traveled into An Lin’s ears.

Turning to look at the rock golem next to him, An Lin taunted, “Do you see that? That’s what you call ‘lose the match and lose support’.”

“Howl!” Hearing this, the rock golem howled loudly. He glowered at An Lin, and the flames on his chest burned brighter and more intense.

An Lin shrugged his shoulders, feeling extremely proud of himself. He was very happy right now. Not only did he crush the rock golem in all aspects, he even earned three days in detention.

The Dao Exchange Conference was going to begin in two days. Now that he was going to be detained for three days, it meant that…

He had the opportunity to not participate in this whatever bullsh*t Dao Exchange Conference!

Absolutely marvelous!

At the same time, perched on a tree not far away from them, a golden-eyed owl spat in disgust.

“Ptui! That idiot Hong Dou. He causes trouble wherever he goes!”

“Hopefully this situation doesn’t escalate any further… I need to inform the Lion King at once.”

Watching the rock golem walking further and further into the distance, the owl was both annoyed and furious. He should’ve never allowed him to go strolling by himself. After strolling for a while, he had strolled himself into a detention cell! What was up with that?!

The owl sighed again. It spread its wings and flew toward the sky.
