High School of Demon Hunting

Chapter 2094: Chapter 315: Zheng Qing, Your Inbox Has Exploded

A quick and intense rebuttal had greatly drained Zheng Qing’s energy; he felt as if he had participated in a full marathon or faced the Black Prison battlefield once again.

Standing opposite the young public student, the three warlocks showed different expressions.

Zhang Ji Xin scratched his head, looking bewildered, completely believing Zheng Qing’s explanation; Xin Fat Man crossed his arms, sneering, not believing a word; as for Doctor Xiao, he adjusted his glasses as usual, and glanced at the newspaper.

”I have a few words to say too.”

The short warlock picked up the newspaper, shook it, speaking calmly, with rigorous wording: ”Firstly, if you don’t have the relationship with Su Councilor as implied by the newspaper, you shouldn’t have rebutted with such an attitude just now...”

Zheng Qing was taken aback.

”At the very least, you shouldn’t have been so emotional.” Xin Fat Man sneered, mocking, ”The way you acted, it was as if someone stepped on your tail. Originally, I was just suspicious... but now I’m ninety percent sure it’s true.”

”Moreover, your explanation has various loopholes.”

Xiao Xiao continued to fill in his argument: ”For instance, first, the newspaper talked about ’public contact,’ and the contacts in the lab hardly count as public; and then, although the relationship between the two little foxes could barely be acknowledged, using the good relationship between Poseidon and Li Meng as evidence seems very odd.”

”This is particularly suspicious,” the Fat Wizard chimed in, glancing meaningfully at the front of the classroom: ”After all, we all know who Li Meng’s cousin is.”

The blush on Zheng Qing’s previously flushed face turned pale again.

He decided to struggle a little more.

”The distance between Su Shijun and me is farther than the distance between a fish and the moon,” the young public student laughed dryly, exhausting his already dried-up brain: ”...everyone knows fish can’t touch the moon.”

”But fish can touch the moon’s reflection every night.” Xin Fat Man, always exceptional at finding fault, immediately posed a retort that left Zheng Qing speechless.

Xiao Xiao also scrutinized the young man, adding from the wizard’s perspective: ”Moreover, ordinary fish might not touch the moon, but magical fish... like Kunyu that can transform into a big Kunpeng? Coincidentally, you’re not an ordinary fish...”

”In the Kunpeng Hunting Team my brother is in, there’s a little spiritual wizard; she can summon a giant Kunpeng, which can dive into the sea and fly into the sky.” The red-faced male wizard enthusiastically interjected.

”Isn’t your brother in the school hunting team?” Zheng Qing immediately found an excellent opportunity to change the topic.

”My elder brother, Zhang Boren, he’s already married!”

Zhang Ji Xin scratched his head and spread his hands: ”The one in the school hunting team is my fourth brother... at the end of last semester, my elder brother’s hunting team also participated in the Black Prison battle and even undertook a very important task! Don’t you remember?”

”So, Poseidon really is Su Shijun’s child, right.” Xin Fat Man’s face took on a faint blue glow, as if he would explode the next moment and punch Zheng Qing into pancakes.

”Relatively speaking, I’m actually more curious about how you and Su Councilor... produced Poseidon.” Doctor Xiao took off his glasses, full of admiration.

”No, it’s not what you think...” the young public student moaned softly, his scalp tingling, as if already imagining the terrifying scene of being chased by half of the school’s warlocks.

”One must not... at least shouldn’t, conceal such important matters from their friends!” Xin Fat Man hammered his chest, making the blue glow on his face flicker, showing a heartbroken look.

Zheng Qing squinted his eyes at him.

”If I had admitted it before, would you have calmly accepted it?” the young public student tactfully probed.

”No,” on this point, the Fat Wizard’s response was very honest: ”Before hammering you flat, I would have fed you enough Death and Life Water... and not like now, smashing you into meat paste with punch after punch while you’re sober!”

Death and Life Water, also known as Hell Potion, is a strong sleeping drug.

”Then I really should thank you.” Zheng Qing muttered, intending to say something else, when the surrounding sound insulation barrier suddenly shattered, and the low conversations of other classmates and Professor Yi’s voice clearly reached the ears of the young men.

”Class is starting!”

The Divination Class professor knocked on the bamboo cane in his hand, glanced at the back corner, and scolded in his familiar heavy nasal voice: ”I’ve heard some students like to set up sound insulation barriers in the classroom recently, I need to remind everyone, this is my class... don’t do some irrelevant things... if you don’t want to attend, then leave!”

The audience immediately became solemn.

Zheng Qing also quietly let out a sigh, forced himself to perk up, and opened the ”Basic Study of Changes - University Second Grade” in front of him.

The professor nodded satisfactorily, but glanced at Zheng Qing twice more, frowning slightly, as if about to say something, but in the end, simply shook his head and opened his own script:

”In this class, we will continue to study the lines and clauses of the I Ching; the classical divination skill uses turtle shells, divining grass, even copper coins, chess pieces and many other ’media’ to analyze the clauses, and predict good or bad luck, which is a quite rough method of divination. The famous Great Divinor Lai Zhide from the Ming dynasty clearly stated in his work that divination should achieve the unity of principles, materials, images, and numbers...”

Professor Yi shook his head, uttering complicated content, while on the platform, although Zheng Qing appeared serious, looking intently at the textbook, he wasn’t absorbing a single word, his mind filled with ’I’m doomed,’ ’I’m doomed,’ ’what to do,’ ’should I just flee,’ ’can I escape’ and other messy thoughts.

So much so that when Professor Yi’s bamboo cane banged two or three times, the young public student didn’t hear it, and it was only when Doctor Xiao beside him quietly tugged his clothes, that he snapped back to reality.

”What?”

Zheng Qing turned his gaze, seeing Xiao Xiao’s expression, immediately realized and hurriedly stood up, first glancing at the blackboard, then leafing through the textbook before him, muttering: ”Six Lines... Six Lines Divination Method should be with ’the principle of yin and yang, motion and stillness, life and subjugation to activate the Divine Changes’...”

Snap, snap!

Professor Yi, with a dark face, banged the desk hard and snorted, annoyed: ”I didn’t ask you to answer a question... I didn’t even raise one! There’s someone at the door looking for you!”

Zheng Qing raised his head in bewilderment, looking toward the classroom’s door.

A tall, thin male warlock was peering in, and when he spotted Zheng Qing, he immediately waved kindly: ”Zheng Qing? I’m from the student council office... would you mind stepping out for a bit?”

The young public student slunk out the door amid the low laughter of his classmates.

”What’s the matter?” He, holding a guilty conscience, dared not step out of Professor Yi’s sight, stood blocking the door and asked in a low voice.

”Your email inbox is full.” The tall, thin warlock shrugged: ”The student council has never encountered something like this either... so we need you, the affected party, to help handle it.”

”Go on, go on!” The professor in front of the class waved dismissively: ”The second half of the class you probably won’t make it back for... by the way, good luck!”
