Nearby, Lan Yu, Jin Zhuliu, Xue Yun and Shi Yunpeng all wore the biggest smiles.

“We have dispatched all our forces this time. The great disturbance and public outrage have attracted the attention of the influential figures in the academy. Lin Xun is doomed this time!” Jin Zhuli uttered coldly.

“He has brought everything upon himself due to his arrogance. He dared to offend Her Highness and Qi Yu. Isn’t he asking for death?!” Shi Yunpeng sneered coldly.

“Lin Xun has an extraordinary mastery in the art of runes and also remarkable skills in martial arts. What should we do if the academy refuses to fire him?” Lan Yu asked with a frown.

“Impossible.” Zuo Yujing was full of confidence. “This time, Senior Brother Zhao Jingwen and I have asked some elders from the academy to come forward and pressure the academy. I believe the academy won’t want to offend us all just for Lin Xun.”

Some people trembled inwardly when they heard that. They had never thought that Zuo Yujing and Zhao Jingwen would call on some powerful and influential figures to help expel Lin Xun.

Then, they couldn’t help but burst out laughing. Lin Xun is going to suffer a calamity this time.

Not long after that, a man strode into the hall. He was dressed in a beautiful robe that highlighted his bright eyes and dashing eyebrows. As he stood in the hall with his hands behind his back, he radiated a heroic bearing.

It was Zhao Jingwen from the imperial family!

He was also a genius figure in the Dao Martial Department and had once occupied first place on the Spirit Sea Gold Rankings in the past.

However, he had dropped to the second spot when Gu Yunting emerged from closed-door cultivation and Lin Xun returned to Qinglu Academy.

“Paying our respects to Senior Brother Jingwen.” Everyone bowed respectfully.

“How are things going?” asked Zhao Jingwen.

“It’s the end for Lin Xun. The day he is expelled is the day of his death!” Zuo Yujing answered confidently.

“Good.” Zhao Jingwen seemed very calm and there wasn’t a ripple of expression on his face.

“Senior Brother Jingwen, do we need to inform Her Highness Princess Linghuang and Senior Brother Qi Yu first?” asked Xue Yun.

“No need, it’s just Lin Xun, and he’s about to die anyway. There’s no need to drag in so many people. We can let them know once the matter is over.” Zhao Jingwen turned to Zuo Yujing.

“I heard that there is enmity between your Zuo Family and the Lin Clan of Mind Cleansing Peak. Since we have decided to get rid of Lin Xun, will your clan also take action on Mind Cleansing Peak?”

A helpless look creased Zuo Yujing’s brows. “Mind Cleansing Peak has closed its door and isolated itself from the world. For now, it will be difficult to deal with them.”

“Don’t worry, they can’t hide forever. Once Lin Xun dies, they will be without a leader. When a tree falls, the monkeys scatter. We don’t need to do anything,” stated Zhao Jingwen.

“The elders of my clan think so too.” Zuo Yujing chuckled.

“Senior Brother Zuo, it’s not good!”

A sharp voice suddenly pierced the air and Mole Li Xiaofei rushed into the hall, looking exasperated.

“What’s wrong?” Zuo Yujing frowned.

“The academy has made a decision. Anyone who creates more trouble in the academy will be expelled no matter who they are!”

What?

Everyone’s expressions dramatically changed. They had never thought that such a situation would happen. How did it turn into this?

Zhao Jingwen was also baffled. “That shouldn’t be the case. I have asked an uncle to come forward, and he gathered dozens of higher-ups of the academy to put pressure on the academy! How would they not be able to do anything to Lin Xun?”

Zhao Jingwen’s uncle was called Zhao Zhanye and was one of the Deputy Heads of the Dao Martial Department. He had monstrous authority and power within the academy.

They couldn’t believe that even Zhao Zhanye failed to make the academy change its mind and fire Lin Xun.

“Is this true?” Zuo Yujing asked.

Li Xiaofei quickly confirmed.

The atmosphere instantly turned heavy in the hall. Everyone’s faces clouded over. How could this be? We have called on so many people and created such a scene, so why can’t we get rid of Lin Xun?

Soon, they found out a piece of news—Lin Xun planned to cast a rune armament by himself!

The news was like a thunderbolt—it threw Zhao Jingwen and Zuo Yujing into chaos.

If the news was true, it was easy to understand the academy’s reason for refusing to expel Lin Xun.

A young rune grandmaster who had evoked the phenomenon from the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate was about to cast a rune armament. No one could touch him, let alone expel him from the academy!

“Annoying! This is so annoying!”

Jin Zhuliu and the others all looked glum.

They had almost been successful in getting rid of Lin Xin from the academy but a sudden change had happened. How could they accept it?

“Impossible, he’s only a sixteen-year-old rune grandmaster. How can he make a rune armament? This has to be a lie! Lin Xun must be deliberately spreading this lie to prevent him from being expelled from the academy!” Zuo Yujing uttered coldly after drawing a deep breath.

Everyone responded strongly.

“Yes! How old is Lin Xun? No matter how good he is in the art of runes, how can he possibly create a rune armament?”

“That boy is so cunning. He used such a trick to deceive the higher-ups of the academy to prevent his teaching qualification from being stripped away!” Jin Zhuliu hissed through gritted teeth.

“No matter what, the higher-ups in the academy believe him. Now, even if Lin Xun fails, who would dare to expel him again?” Xue Yun sighed.

“I inquired and found out that Lin Xun will go into closed-door cultivation in the next few days. He will isolate himself on the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower to prevent any disturbance. The academy has decided to ensure his safety during this period. They made it very clear that anyone who dared to touch him during this period is going against the academy.”

Zhao Jingwen and Zuo Yujing fell silent, complicated emotions swirling in their hearts! Lin Xun had dodged a bullet again!

“Rune armament...If he is successful, it will be even more difficult to deal with him in the future…” Zhao Jingwen muttered.

He knew the value of rune armament very well. He also knew what sort of treatment a rune master would receive after successfully casting a rune armament.

At least, almost no one in the entire Ziyao Empire would willingly go against such a person because it would be met with great resistance! Unless they had some deep-seated hatred between them.

“What can we do now?” Jin Zhuliu and the others asked, upset by the news.

Zhao Jingwen restored calmness to his face and said thoughtfully, “Do you think Lin Xun will succeed?”

“Impossible!”

Everyone’s answer was surprisingly unanimous. They didn’t believe in the slightest that Lin Xun could succeed. How could a sixteen-year-old rune grandmaster cast a rune armament?

No one would believe it!

Never had something similar happened in the past!

“Since that’s the case, this matter is easy to handle. We just have to wait until he fails and then we teach him an unbearable lesson!” Zhao Jingwen’s eyes glinted chillingly.

He was determined to kill Lin Xun. He is just a surviving member of a deteriorated clan. He has slandered and insulted the dignity of the imperial family. He will become a stain on the imperial family if he’s not killed.

……

“Lin Xun is about to create a rune armament by himself!”

The news caused a sensation in the Qinglu Academy like a thunderbolt that had struck down from the ninth heaven.

A rune armament!

It was an unparalleled treasure in the world. Not only were they invaluable and unfathomable, but also only a handful of rune masters in the entire empire were able to cast rune armaments.

However, Lin Xun, a sixteen-year-old rune grandmaster, had announced that he was going to make a rune armament. How would that not stir the world?

“Is it true?” Many people had the same question.

After all, it was too unbelievable.

“Lin Xun must have noticed that his situation isn’t good so he deliberately made that up to avoid being expelled from the academy.”

Many people shared the same view. In recent days, many students and influential figures had been condemning Lin Xun and demanding he be stripped of his teaching qualifications and expelled from the academy.

Coincidentally, Lin Xun suddenly announced that he planned to make a rune armament. Many people couldn’t help but think that he made up the lie to protect himself.

“I’m not too sure. I heard that Master Shen Tuo came forward and specially provided the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower for Lin Xun’s exclusive use.”

Some people believed in Lin Xun. After all, he had caused the phenomenon from the Nine Tablets of the Dragon Gate, and he was known for his unbelievable talent in the art of runes.

In short, it caused a stir in Qinglu Academy, and the news sparked heated discussions among both teachers and students.

Soon, the news spread out of Qinglu Academy at an incredible speed and pervaded the Forbidden City.

“Create a rune armament? Has Lin Xun gone crazy?”

“If he can do that, I will eat shit! How can a sixteen-year-old kid make a rune armament? He’s so arrogant and ignorant!”

“It’s Lin Xun again! Why is there always news about him these days? That guy creates so many disturbances!”

Almost everyone in the Forbidden City was skeptical about Lin Xun casting a rune armament. He is dreaming if he thinks he can make a rune armament with his current ability. He will only make a fool of himself.

However, many people paid close attention to this matter because Lin Xun was a famous figure in the Forbidden City, and he had created many miracles in the past. They believed that he had to be confident in making a rune armament if he chose to do so.

Regardless of the uproar and sensation in the outside world, Lin Xun was meticulously sorting out the several kinds of rune materials on the ninth floor of the Refinement Tower.
