Chapter 80 Mr. Bi's Ascension
"Ladies and gentlemen, please get up!"
Zhang Xuan hadn't expected these people to come to the school, and he quickly reached out to help Zhou Qun and the others to their feet.
"Father..."
Zhou Qingkai, who had just been arrogantly unassailable, stood petrified on the spot.
In his mind, his father's Horse Taming Techniques were unparalleled, if not the best in the world. Yet now, his father knelt before another man, offering the respect due a disciple... How powerful must that man be?
No wonder Patriarch Chen Xiao had employed him as an honorary elder instead of his own father.
In an instant, he felt a burning pain on his face.
Unlike the shock of the others, Elder Chen covered his forehead.
He had hoped to keep the fact that Zhang Xuan's horse taming abilities were extraordinary under wraps for as long as possible, but it had come to this...
Turning his head to look at Zhou Qun and the others, he felt a wave of speechlessness wash over him.
Absolutely unreliable!
Of course, the most outrageous was his own damned son.
Thinking of this, his eyebrows shot up, and he yanked Chen Hao's ear: "You beast, get out and kneel down!"
"I..."
Chen Hao winced in pain: "Father, even if Teacher Zhang's knowledge impartation is flawless and he can tame beasts, Miss Liu and Miss Yu obviously did not want to be his students. My actions were merely to help them."
Patriarch Chen Xiao was furious: "What nonsense are you spouting?"
Chen Hao: "I'm not talking nonsense. They didn't even want to remember or learn the cultivation techniques he taught. Isn't it clear whether they are willing or not?"
Just then, an anxious voice sounded, and everyone turned to see City Lord Yu Longqing hurriedly walking in.
Yu Longqing: "Teacher Zhang, I told Xiaoyu to do that. Her failure to listen carefully in class is all because of my wrong ideas..."
Zhang Xuan was puzzled: "City Lord, why would you say that?"
Yu Longqing's face was full of embarrassment: "I was worried that you, having never taught students before, might not be able to explain clearly enough for her to understand... So I had her support the class and prevent it from falling flat... If all else fails, I could always tutor her at home!"
The city lord, thinking of helping his daughter cheat, grew increasingly embarrassed as he spoke.
Zhang Xuan was stunned by the reason, and his expression turned curious: "You are the city lord, and I'm just a regular, insignificant teacher. Why would you help me?"
This time it was Zhang Xuan's turn to be baffled.
His dealings with the city lord had been limited to taming the Cangbai Eagle for him, but he had been compensated for it. There was no need to force his daughter into his class or unconditionally provide support for him!
Yu Longqing was speechless.
Claiming he did it because Zhang Xuan was a genius, in order to ingratiate himself early, was implausible, yet any other reason seemed insufficient.
As he stood there awkwardly, he saw that everyone around him was equally puzzled and looking his way.
It wasn't just Zhang Xuan who was perplexed. The entire crowd was confused.
This was the city lord, the most powerful man in Baiyan City... being overly nice to such a Miscellaneous Duties Teacher was a bit too much.
As he was at a loss for words, Dean Lu Mingrong stepped forward, his eyes revealing a complex emotion: "Please don't blame Teacher Zhang. The city lord did this at my request!"
Zhang Xuan was puzzled.
Dean Lu Mingrong looked distant: "Indeed, ever since I learned you helped City Lord Yu tame the Cangbai Eagle, I began considering the matter. If such a powerful beast taming ability could be passed on through teaching, perhaps more people could learn it and tame more Primordial Beasts for our use! Therefore...
at the start of the school year, I directly made you a Miscellaneous Duties Teacher by exception and entrusted the city lord to have Xiaoyu become your disciple, so that you could move up from Miscellaneous Duties Teacher to a regular teacher..."
