Sure enough, upon hearing Gu Junlin's subsequent request, Xu Hongling and the other two's expressions became unnatural.
"Your Highness... the matter of teachers at the Education Commission level is no problem, but the issue of the vice dean..."
"I can't make the decision myself; we can only have all the teachers in the college hold a meeting to select the winners!"
Upon hearing Gu Junlin's request, Xu Hongling knew that things had become more complicated.
However, she did not want the royal family to interfere with Tianshui Academy, so she could only make up a reason to speak.
"That's alright. As long as Dean Xu has no objections, I will find a way to get the other teachers to agree!"
Xu Hongling: "..."
Su Yuechan: "..."
Xu Wanshi: "..."
As a prince, you've already said this, how dare we have any objections?
“Of course I have no objection, but Tianshui Academy also has its own rules.”
"That means if you want to become the vice dean, you must demonstrate the ability to convince all the teachers and students!"
"As for how to achieve a truly impressive feat, it's simply a matter of defeating all the teachers and the dean of the academy!"
"so……"
Xu Hongling did not say what he was about to say. He believed that His Majesty the Prince was intelligent enough to understand what he meant.
"I see. No problem, I'll accept the challenge."
Upon hearing Xu Hongling's words, Gu Junlin agreed without any hesitation.
The three women were taken aback when they saw Gu Junlin agree so readily.
Suddenly, all three women felt that Gu Junlin seemed to have come prepared.
But since the words have already been spoken, there's no going back.
Therefore, Xu Wanshi had no choice but to notify all the teachers and students of the academy to gather at the dueling arena.
……
Soon, the four of them arrived at the dueling arena of Tianshui Academy.
This is a fighting arena, made entirely of extremely hard steel rock.
In Xu Wanshi's words, even an eight-ring Soul Douluo expert would find it difficult to destroy the arena in the slightest under their full power.
Needless to say, this arena was specially reserved by Tianshui Academy for teachers and students to exchange skills, resolve conflicts, and engage in duels.
The craters and potholes on the ground around the arena were probably made by the teachers and students who were knocked off the arena.
At this moment, dozens of female teachers were standing on the stage.
This must be the teacher who fought against me.
Gu Junlin thought to himself.
Then, he looked at the crowd, and their soul power cultivation levels appeared in his mind.
The dozens of female teachers were all experts at the sixth ring level or above.
Among them are teachers who are at the level of a seventh-ring Soul Saint.
After receiving information about the cultivation levels of many teachers, Gu Junlin remained calm and showed no reaction.
"I hope that after I defeat you all, you will all nominate me as the vice dean!"
Turning his head, Gu Junlin's calm voice rang out.
Xu Hongling and the other two: "..."
Many teachers: "."
Too arrogant?
"Your Highness, let's see who's truly capable!"
Xu Hongling's lips twitched, and she spoke calmly.
"Fight them first. If they're no match for you, there will be stronger opponents to fight!"
Chapter 113 If you're going to chase someone, chase three at the same time!
The battle begins.
With Gu Junlin's strength, it was no surprise that he easily defeated all the teachers at Tianshui Academy.
Even when Xu Hongling and Su Yuechan joined forces, they were no match for Gu Junlin.
Of course, Gu Junlin did not reveal too much of his strength.
He merely displayed a strength that was 'just right' enough to defeat all the teachers at Tianshui Academy.
Soon, the battle ended, and Xu Hongling withdrew her martial spirit, bowing slightly to Gu Junlin.
"Your Highness is truly formidable; Hongling is completely outmatched!"
"It was just a lucky victory. If Dean Xu hadn't held back, the outcome would have been uncertain."
Gu Junlin slowly shook his head, without showing excessive pride.
That's exactly what happened.
There's really nothing to be proud of in defeating a group of women who aren't even titled Douluo.
"It has caught the attention of His Highness the Prince."
Xu Hongling covered her mouth and chuckled. She knew that Gu Junlin was giving her face.
Gu Junlin smiled and shook his head, not delving into the matter further. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "So, Dean Xu, am I now eligible to compete for the position of vice dean?"
"Of course it's no problem."
Xu Hongling nodded, revealing a charming smile.
Next, Xu Hongling summoned all the teachers for an emergency meeting.
As expected, Gu Junlin became the vice dean of Tianshui Academy as he had hoped.
Gu Junlin did not attend this meeting, so he was unaware that there was no vote at all.
Xu Hongling acted arbitrarily and made a domineering announcement.
Prince Xuexing will now serve as the vice dean of Tianshui Academy.
As for the voting and such, Xu Hongling just made it up on the spot.
Her goal was to make Prince Xuexing back down.
After all, Tianshui Academy has always had a rule that it does not recruit male Soul Masters.
This applies to both students and teachers.
But now, Prince Xuexing, as an imperial prince, already holds an extremely high position.
Furthermore, they demonstrated their formidable strength to Tianshui Academy at this time.
At this point, Xu Hongling knew she could no longer refuse Gu Junlin.
If he remains obstinate and refuses to see the truth, he will surely lead Tianshui Academy to its destruction!
The wrath of an imperial prince was clearly not something that Tianshui Academy could quell.
Ultimately, Gu Junlin became the first male vice dean since the founding of Tianshui College.
Under Xu Hongling's personal guidance, Gu Junlin obtained his own office.
"Your Highness, this will be your office and residence from now on."
"Of course, Your Highness, you are busy with many affairs, there is no need for you to stay at Tianshui Academy all day."
"I have already informed the faculty and students of the academy. Your Highness, you are welcome to come. No one will stop you."
After saying that, Xu Hongling smiled slightly and prepared to leave.
However, Gu Junlin called out to her.
"Dean Xu, please wait a moment."
"Hmm? What is it, Your Highness?"
Xu Hongling turned around and asked, puzzled.
Gu Junlin smiled slightly and said, "I'm sorry for breaking the rules of Tianshui Academy."
A hint of surprise flashed in Xu Hongling's eyes; she hadn't expected Gu Junlin to say such a thing.
But the deed was already done, and she couldn't change her mind. She could only calmly say, "Your Highness..."
"You're joking. It's an honor for Tianshui College that you've joined their staff."
Upon hearing this, Gu Junlin chuckled softly. With his keen sense of reason, he naturally knew that the other party was being considerate of his feelings.
Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, then took out a soul bone from his pocket and handed it to Xu Hongling.
