Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

"Hey, isn't this Li Dazhu making a romantic confession under the moonlight? I didn't expect we'd be so close!"

Just as the dog was about to say something, a somewhat shrill voice came from not far away.

The newcomer was overweight with sharp eyes, dressed in a bright red coat, clearly someone who liked to attract attention.

Two students, a boy and a girl, were also with him. Although they were just students, the expressions on their faces were exactly the same as those of a man.

"They've arrived." Upon seeing the newcomer, Gouzi temporarily put down what he was about to say, glanced at Lu Yunshi, and then looked at him with great interest.

Upon hearing the sound, Mr. Li frowned, casually erased the energy he had just injected into a student's body, and then turned to look at the source of the sound.

"Teacher Pang, why aren't you teaching your students properly? What are you doing here?"

"Haha! Seeing Teacher Li's students makes me realize that even though they are just elementary school students, there is still a big difference between trash and dregs." Crab laughed loudly, making no attempt to hide his contempt for elementary school students.

When Mr. Li's students heard the crab's blunt mockery, they all showed anger. However, the two students next to the crab, who had also been mocked, did not change their expressions at all.

“Teacher Pang, I have said before that talent may determine a person’s lower limit, but it cannot limit a person’s upper limit. Your idea is completely wrong. You should revise your views on students.”

Mr. Li's eyes also held anger, but his tone remained calm and unhurried.

"Then, no matter what their future holds, here they are your students, and you should and must consider yourself a teacher."

"Tsk! I've always hated your clichés." The crab jumped onto the stage and walked step by step to Mr. Li.

"I heard that you harbor a lot of resentment towards me and are spreading rumors that I deliberately made up about your shameful deeds, saying that all I do is play tricks and schemes, that I am dishonest and unfit to be a teacher?"

With each word the crab uttered, its aura grew stronger.

The aura that was two minor realms higher than his own put considerable pressure on Mr. Li, but he did not retreat even a step, instead meeting the aura head-on.

"First, I did not spread what you call rumors; one night is simply not enough time."

"Secondly, whether it was what you did or not, you and I both know, everyone knows, you don't need to pretend."

"Third, everyone knows what kind of person you are, and there is no need for so-called rumors to smear you."

“Fourth…” Mr. Li straightened his chest. “If you continue like this, you are indeed unworthy to be a teacher. You can be anywhere else, but you are not worthy to be here.”

Upon hearing Mr. Li's words, the crab's aura grew even colder, and even some of the students who were near him felt immense pressure.

Suddenly, the crab let out a cold laugh. "Whether I'm worthy or not is not for you to decide. Shouldn't this be decided by the students?"

As he spoke, the crab's cold gaze fell upon the two students he had brought with him.

Upon seeing this, the male student immediately began to cooperate with him.

“How am I unworthy of Teacher Pang’s title? Without Teacher Pang, we wouldn’t even have the opportunity to cultivate. Teacher Pang works from dawn till dusk every day, even neglecting his own cultivation. Isn’t that all for us students with low cultivation talent? Although he is sometimes a bit stern, it’s all to encourage us.”

"We can understand this kind of appropriate suppression."

"Teacher Pang has given so much; if he doesn't even deserve to be a teacher, then who does?"

As he spoke, the male student's tone became agitated, and he even wiped away non-existent tears from the corners of his eyes, as if he were genuinely indignant on behalf of the crab.

At this moment, the female student beside him also spoke with righteous indignation.

"That's right. In our eyes, Teacher Pang is the best teacher in the world. In my opinion, some people who only know how to throw mud are not qualified to be teachers."

"Hahaha!" Upon hearing the two students' comments, Crab burst into laughter, looking smugly at Mr. Li. "Look at Teacher Li, this is how a teacher should be. I've only been a bit strict on weekdays, how could I have caused such a misunderstanding, even leading to such rumors? Or perhaps..."

The crab paused for a moment, its expression mocking.

"Did yesterday's failure leave Teacher Li confused?"

Mr. Li took a deep breath and looked at the two students that Crab had brought, his eyes filled with disappointment.

"Really... With teachers like you, it's no wonder they say all sorts of things."

After saying that, Mr. Li met the crab's eyes with disgust. "If Teacher Pang came here just to say these things, then you can leave."

“Of course not.” The crab resolutely refused, then slowly said, “Teacher Li, although there are some misunderstandings, you insist on spreading rumors outside that I did something to you, which has caused great damage to my reputation.”

"In my opinion, shouldn't Teacher Li apologize?"

"Stop dreaming." Mr. Li's voice finally turned cold.

"Making a mistake and refusing to admit it is not the kind of behavior a teacher should teach students," the crab sneered.

Faced with this, Mr. Li remained unyielding. "What I want to teach them is that they should never take credit for things they haven't done wrong."

"Then I will have to teach Mr. Li a lesson so that he can wake up."

At this moment, the crab finally revealed its true intention for coming here: to find a reason to beat up Mr. Li.

Mr. Li was already aware of this, but he still had no intention of backing down. Even though there was a two-level difference between them, and even though he knew that he had no chance of winning if they really fought, he was even more aware that, under the watchful eyes of his many students, this was not a situation where he could simply back down as usual; this was a situation where he could not back down.

"In that case, it wouldn't hurt to have a friendly spar with Teacher Pang..."

Before Mr. Li could finish speaking, a young voice suddenly came from below the stage.

"I think it's really pointless for two teachers to spar. Besides, shouldn't a teacher's real fighting strength come from their students? Only the students' strength can truly reflect the teacher's strength."

The two, who were interrupted by the sudden voice, immediately looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the speaker was Lu Yunshi.

"Oh, this is..." The crab was curious about the person who dared to interrupt it, but its eyes were also filled with malice.

"Lu Yunshi! What are you doing out here? Go back now." Mr. Li frowned when he saw Lu Yunshi's face and immediately scolded him.

Lu Yunshi smiled, but his gaze fell on the crab.

“Teacher Pang, I, Lu Yunshi, have been quite offensive this time. But as I just said, since the two teachers have a dispute because of the student, this matter should naturally be resolved by the student. How can we let the two teachers come to blows?”

"Lu Yunshi?" The crab paused for a moment upon hearing this, then immediately burst into laughter. "You're that toad who dreams every day?"

Although he had never met Lu Yunshi, he had heard of Lu Yunshi's name and had even used it to mock Mr. Li on several occasions.

Lu Yunshi shook his head slightly, walked up to the stage, and actually stood in front of the crab to look at it, and even held up two fingers.

"Whether it's a toad or not is not important; the two things that need to be addressed most now are..."

"Oh? Which two things?" The crab became interested and decided to listen.

"The first thing was that Teacher Pang belittled and insulted all the students in our class. Although I lack talent and have poor skills, I still couldn't swallow this insult."

"Secondly, Teacher Pang tried to smear my teacher's professional ethics and ruin his reputation with just a few words. As a student, I cannot pretend I didn't see it."

“Yun Shi…” Mr. Li was somewhat lost in thought upon hearing this, staring at Lu Yun Shi beside him speechlessly.

"What first or second place? You're just as disgusting as your damn teacher." Crab felt even more irritated after hearing Lu Yunshi's words. He came here just to beat Mr. Li up to vent his anger, not to listen to a little brat's long-winded lecture.

As it spoke, the crab slapped Lu Yunshi with its paw. This slap was not imbued with spiritual energy, but rather with the power of its physical body.

Even so, the crab did not deliberately hold back.

Even without spiritual energy, a slap from a cultivator at the Mountain Moving Realm can still kill a person without them consciously holding back their strength.

Even a cultivator who has already tempered their body would likely be severely injured by this slap.

Before the slap even landed, the fierce wind from the palm was already blowing in his face, making Lu Yunshi's hair dance wildly. But at that moment, a hand blocked Lu Yunshi's way.

"Pang Xie, to lay such a heavy hand on a student is strictly forbidden by the academy. How dare you do it? And right in front of me!" Since Pang Xie's appearance today, Mr. Li had never been so angry.

He had already made up his mind that he had to fight Pang Xie this time. Even if he lost, even if he had to give up his cultivation, he would make Pang Xie pay the price.

"Hmph, what a deep bond between master and disciple~" The crab that was stopped did not make another move, but instead gave Lu Yunshi a deep look, while secretly glancing at Mr. Li, and made a more interesting decision.

"Kid, you want to stand up for your teacher?"

"It's also to stand up for the injustices I feel," Lu Yunshi said with a smile.

"Good! Good!" The crab said "good" twice and then grinned. "Seeing how filial you are, I'll give you this opportunity and use your students to resolve this matter, just as you said."

"Pang Xie, what do you want to do?" Upon hearing the crab's words, Mr. Li instinctively felt something was wrong and immediately tried to stop it, but the crab ignored him and shouted to itself.

"Xiaomei!"
