Chapter 122 needs no explanation!
Fan Yu glared at Wang Wenbin: "Explain? How do you intend to explain? The fact that these things are here with you is the best explanation!"

Wang Wenbin's smile froze. It seemed the matter was more serious than he had thought. After gathering his thoughts again, he carefully chose his words.
"Well, here's what happened. When the package was delivered a couple of days ago, they said Shrek was supposed to sign for it, but they didn't specify who signed for it."

If the vice president doesn't believe me, he can check. There should have been another batch of items delivered at the time; I wasn't the only one there.

At that time, Teacher Liu Li told me that they had ordered these things a few days ago. I didn't think too much about it then, assuming they were soul tools ordered by the academy, so I put them away first. I just didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Fan Yu snorted coldly. He knew that Wang Wenbin was trying to shift the blame, but he didn't have any substantial evidence, so he couldn't make a decision easily.

In addition, Wang Wenbin is indeed quite capable and has good interpersonal relationships. If he is punished too severely, someone might come to him to plead for leniency.

Let's just accept his version of events. Besides, he has already implicated Liu Li, which can be considered an explanation to Zhou Xuan.

"Okay, let's put the screen issue aside for now. How are you going to explain the rare metal thing? Don't tell me you didn't know about it?"

He was referring to the incident involving Liu Li and Zhou Xuan. After all, even Qian Duoduo had intervened, so it was impossible for him not to know about it.

Hearing Fan Yu say this, Wang Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems the screen issue is over, but the rare metal matter was indeed something he did because he listened to the slander of Liu Li and a few others, and because they offered him some irresistible benefits, which is why he took the risk.

However, based on this one incident alone, Fan Yu wouldn't punish him too severely, since it's really just a matter of resource allocation.

"I really have no excuse for this. I did do it, but it was Liu Li and the other two who came to me for help."
We're all colleagues, and they told me their research was at a critical stage, so they could postpone it for a month and finish later, which is why I...

Fan Yu sighed, "Old Wang, what can I say to you? You're usually quite sensible, so why are you acting like this at a time like this?"

Wang Wenbin said with a forced smile, "They gave me so much that I was momentarily blinded by greed."

In his heart, however, he had already cursed Liu Li and the other two to the bone.

Fan Yu was silent for a moment: "You should give up your position as director to someone else for now. Don't provoke Zhou Xuan anymore, otherwise I won't be able to help you."

Wang Wenbin nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, yes! I've got it."

In fact, the punishment was not serious for him, and he secretly remembered the name Zhou Xuan.

"It seems I need to cultivate a good relationship with Zhou Xuan." After all, even Fan Yu had to handle this matter personally, which shows that the other party's identity is extraordinary.

"Alright, pack up and hand over your work. I'll handle the rest."

Wang Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, and turned to pack his things.

Fan Yu planned to go directly to Liu Li and the other two. In less than ten minutes, he arrived at the laboratory where the three of them worked.

Since the last incident, they were sent to work in this laboratory. Although it's called working, the three of them were previously teachers at the Soul Guidance Academy.

So in reality, it was just a change of location to continue researching soul tools; the treatment he received remained unchanged.

Fan Yu knocked on the door: "Liu Li, you three come out for a moment!"

After saying that, he walked outside. After all, this was someone else's laboratory, and even though he was the vice dean, it wasn't appropriate to disturb their research.

A few minutes later, the three of them came out, with Liu Li walking in front, a fawning smile on his face.

"What does the vice dean want with us?" he asked with a smile.

Fan Yu didn't put on a stern face. He had no good feelings towards these three people at all. They weren't very capable and always liked to do things in a roundabout way.

"Can you explain why the rare metals that were promised to Zhou Xuan and the others are here with you?!"

Liu Li and the other two's expressions changed slightly, but he quickly explained with a smile, "Vice Dean, there's a reason for this."

Our research is at a crucial stage, and we desperately need these materials. We're only borrowing them temporarily; we'll definitely return them in a month. Besides, Zhou Xuan isn't here right now, is he?
Isn't it a waste to leave so many resources lying around?

"Borrow?" Fan Yu sneered. "Liu Li, Liu Li, it's one thing to fool me, but don't actually fool yourself."

Liu Li's face flushed slightly, but he still said, "Teacher Fan Yu, even if you are the vice dean, you can't say that about us. We are all contributing to the Soul Guidance Academy!"

Fan Yu almost laughed out of anger: "Then how do you explain the screen issue?"

"What screen?" Liu Li looked bewildered, but a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

Somewhat surprised, she thought, "How did Fan Yu know about this? Did Wang Wenbin betray us? Didn't he promise me that before?"

I was taken advantage of for free?

Fan Yu looked at them coldly: "Stop pretending. Wang Wenbin has already told me everything."

Bribing college professors? You guys have some serious nerve!!!

The full power of an 80th-level Soul Douluo is something that Liu Li and the other Soul Emperors who relied on pills to reach their level are simply no match for.

"Please let me explain!" Liu Li panicked completely: "Please give me a chance to explain."

Fan Yu shook his head: "No need to explain, the evidence is conclusive, pack your things and get out!"

"No, I'll give everything back to him, please! Please! Don't expel us, please forgive us for all the years we've worked so hard for the academy." Liu Li almost knelt down.

The other two teachers were the same, after all, Shrek Academy's status was evident throughout the entire continent.
Being a teacher there would be an honorable thing for their family, but now they are being fired. How can they accept that?
"What were you doing all this time? It's too late now!"

"Please! Please!" Liu Li's attitude was now extremely humble.

He knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

Although Fan Yu was resolute, she couldn't help but feel saddened to see her former colleague in this state: "Get up first."

Liu Li thought things had taken a turn for the better: "Did the vice president agree?"

The latter's face stiffened: "There's no room for discussion on this!"

Someone has to bear the consequences of this. Since he chose to let Wang Wenbin go, Liu Li has to take the blame.

Liu Li's expression changed drastically, and he became furious: "Fan Yu, don't go too far! We need resources to do research, is that wrong?"

That Wang Wenbin is a fence-sitter, don't believe him! Besides, Zhou Xuan is just a student; even if he luckily beat us before, he doesn't deserve to use so many resources!

Fan Yu's eyes suddenly turned cold, and she abruptly shoved Liu Li away, the last trace of pity in her heart vanishing: "Liu Li, watch your attitude. I am the vice dean of the Soul Guidance Academy. You are disrespecting the academy's rules."
"It's perfectly reasonable for me to deal with you!" Liu Li, now completely defiant, retorted, "So what if you're the vice dean? Is it really worth making such a fuss over such a trivial matter? Or did Zhou Xuan give you some kind of benefit?"

At this point, Liu Li felt like he had guessed correctly: "Yes! That must be it! I knew it!"

"How dare a mere student from the Soul Guidance Department have their own laboratory, and even get the chance to hire you, the vice dean of Shrek Soul Guidance Academy!"

His words directly crossed Fan Yu's bottom line: "Fine! Very well! Liu Li, you not only misappropriated academy resources, but you also dared to slander the academy's vice dean!"

You don't need to pack your things, just get out of here! And I guarantee, no academy will dare to accept you!

The other two immediately changed their expressions: "Vice Dean Fan Yu, what you just said was all Liu Li's opinion, it has nothing to do with us, you can't treat us like this!"

Even if they were expelled from Shrek Academy, with their years of teaching experience, they could have done very well anywhere. But now, Fan Yu's intention is to blacklist them!
How could they possibly accept this?
Although they still possess cultivation levels, they haven't fought in a long time, and their strength is less than one-tenth of what it used to be.

"You two cowards!" Liu Li glared at them fiercely, then roared at Fan Yu, "You're just feeling guilty! I told you so!"

See? This is Shrek Academy for you. In the end, it all comes down to social status! Commoners like us will always be excluded!

Fan Yu's expression immediately changed. She knew that this was outside the laboratory, and there were many students here, including some who were from ordinary backgrounds.

Because the argument was so loud, some students started peeking out of the lab to look in their direction.

If these words were to reach their ears, it would be like mud falling into their crotch—even if it wasn't excrement, it would still be excrement.

"Liu Li, don't talk nonsense! It's clearly your own problem!"

At that moment, a majestic voice rang in their ears.

Everyone turned around at the sound and saw a woman in armor walking slowly towards them, her face full of coldness.

Fan Yu was taken aback when she saw the person who had arrived, but she quickly bowed respectfully and said, "Dean!"

The person who arrived was none other than Xian Lin'er, the dean of Shrek Soul Guidance Academy.

Upon seeing this, Liu Li and the other two turned deathly pale. They never expected that the highest leader of the Soul Guidance Academy would personally appear here.

In fact, Qian Duoduo usually manages all the big and small matters of the Soul Guidance Academy, so although everyone knows that the dean of the Soul Guidance Department is Xian Lin'er, many people have never seen her more than a few times.

So everyone naturally started calling Qian Duoduo "Dean".

Xian Lin'er looked at Liu Li and the other two expressionlessly: "I just happened to be passing by and overheard your conversation."

Liu Li, are you saying that Shrek Academy values ​​social status and only favors those with connections?

"No, that's right!" Although his legs were trembling, he stubbornly insisted on his words.

Xian Lin'er raised her hand to stop his explanation, her tone calm: "Since its establishment, Shrek Soul Guidance Academy has always adhered to the principle of selecting the best talent."

Whether you're from a noble family or a commoner, as long as you have talent and ability, you can get equal opportunities and resources here.

If Zhou Xuan were here, he certainly wouldn't agree with her point of view.

From any perspective, Shrek Academy has now become an aristocratic school, and only those with exceptional talent from commoner backgrounds have the opportunity to enter.

Xianlin'er looked around at the students gathered there and continued, "The academy will never discriminate based on a person's background."

On the contrary, we prefer to provide assistance to students from humble backgrounds who work hard and persevere.

Xian Lin'er turned to Liu Li, her tone becoming stern: "As for Zhou Xuan you mentioned, he has his own laboratory and receives support from the academy."

It's because of his talent and contributions to the academy! Not because of his background!

Liu Li's face grew even uglier, but he was still unconvinced: "What contribution could a student like him possibly make to Shrek Academy?"

Xian Lin'er sneered: "Putting everything else aside, just look at this Soul Master Competition. Zhou Xuan led the academy to win the championship. Do you think that alone is enough?"

Even Fan Yu was somewhat surprised, as he was unaware of this news.

"As teachers at Shrek Soul Guidance Academy, the three of you have not only failed to create value for the academy, but..."
Instead, you misappropriated resources, bribed colleagues, and even worse, spread rumors in public, tarnishing the college's reputation! What else do you have to say?

Liu Li was speechless and could only stand there with a grim expression.

Her voice suddenly rose: "People like that don't deserve to stay at Shrek!"

Then she raised her hand and waved it, and three streams of soul power struck the three of them simultaneously.

"Ah!" The three of them screamed at the same time, feeling their soul power receding like a tide.

"Your cultivation is destroyed today. From this day forward, you have nothing to do with Shrek Academy!"

Liu Li and the other two collapsed to the ground, their eyes devoid of light.

"Guards, take them out of the academy!" Xian Lin'er gave the order, and several academy guards immediately stepped forward and dragged the three away.

Xianlin'er turned to Fanyu: "Fanyu, you handled this matter well." Then she looked at the students around her, "Listen up, everyone, Shrek Academy has always valued talent."

Regardless of your background, as long as you have talent and put in the effort, the academy will reward you accordingly. Don't listen to slander!

This matter caused quite a stir and quickly spread throughout the entire Soul Guidance Academy.

Therefore, Zhou Xuan naturally knew the outcome of the matter.

He was quite satisfied with how the three of them, Liu Li and his companions, had been dealt with. After all, their cultivation had been crippled, so they probably wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

However, he still vividly remembered the lessons Xu Sanshi had learned.

The saying goes, "To cut the grass, you must pull it out by the roots."

In the laboratory, Zhou Xuan squinted.

"Perfect timing. The stuff probably won't arrive that quickly anyway. I'll go home first to check on the two kids, and while I'm at it, I'll find someone to deal with these three."
There are only three useless people around; even if Shrek Academy knew, they wouldn't say much.
