Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 2149 Someone is challenging me

In order to take better care of the county magistrate, Wan Shufang did not return to Qingyun Academy, but stayed in the old house and treated the patient with peace of mind.

But the next day, Wan Shufang's servant hurried to the old house.

"Master Wan, something terrible has happened. Someone is looking for trouble at the gate of Qingyun Academy and has smashed many desks and books. The dean and the others are not here, so I had to come to find you first." The book servant spoke in a panic, breathing heavily, and was sweating profusely.

Hearing this, Wan Shufang paused, her eyes filled with confusion: "Do you know who is causing this trouble, and what is their purpose?"

"This... I don't know either. As soon as I saw something was wrong, I came here."

"I understand. Wait for me for a moment." Wan Shufang said lightly, got up and went out, asked Chen Changli for a few secret guards, and led them directly to the academy.

With a servant leading the way, Wan Shufang arrived quickly. At the entrance of the academy, a middle-aged man was pointing at the academy and angrily yelling, "Bah, what a Qingyun Academy! The disciples they teach are all frauds who steal the reputation."

"You can't even explain the basic meaning of the scriptures. You should close down your business as soon as possible and stop harming the children of the noble families!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd suddenly became lively, and everyone started talking and pointing at Qingyun Academy. Seeing this, Wan Shufang understood.

Qingyun Academy has become famous recently, and there is an endless stream of people seeking to study there. This must have made other academies jealous. After all, there are only so many students, and all of them come to Qingyun Academy. Naturally, other academies would be unwilling to not be able to get good students.

Thinking of this, Wan Shufang stepped forward, calm and composed, and said, "Everything must be based on evidence. You want to slander our Qingyun Academy with nothing but empty words. How can this be justified?"

Hearing the woman's voice, the man turned around and saw Wan Shufang. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Are you the new female teacher of Qingyun Academy, Wan Shufang?"

"That's right." Wan Shufang nodded without hesitation, walked to the steps of the academy, and looked down at everyone: "You all came to my academy to cause trouble, and you used this trumped-up crime?"

"Humph, what a false accusation. The students you taught are trash anyway."

The man snorted coldly, staring at Wan Shufang with his triangular eyes, and continued, "However, I want you to admit this crime sincerely."

"Let's let the disciples of the two academies compete and see who is better."

As he spoke, the man held his head high, full of confidence in his academy.

He looked at Wan Shufang provocatively, his eyes were sharp and full of mockery. When their eyes met, Wan Shufang raised her eyebrows, realizing that the other party was here to challenge her.

Glancing at the crowd, Wan Shufang noticed that many of them were from other academies, whispering to each other, waiting to see the joke.

But since she has entered Qingyun Academy, she will not let anyone bully the academy under her nose. With her thoughts swirling, Wan Shufang smiled and agreed immediately: "Okay, it's just a competition, what's wrong with that."

"Someone, bring some pen and ink."

Wan Shufang looked at the clerk, who immediately understood what she meant and hurried away, quickly bringing back pen and ink. In front of everyone, Wan Shufang wrote a notice on the spot and asked the clerk to post it on the door.

As soon as the notice was posted, everyone gathered around and were shocked when they saw the content.

The notice only said that three days later, a literary examination arena would be set up in front of the City God Temple, and anyone who could defeat the disciples of Qingyun Academy would be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold on the spot.

"Qingyun Academy is so arrogant that it dares to challenge all our academies?"

"Could it be that they really have some killer weapon?"

"It's just a pretense. How can a woman teach a powerful person? I'll take the 1,000 taels of gold."

"That's it."

The crowd was talking about it, not taking Qingyun Academy seriously at all. This scene made other people in the academy very angry.

But Wan Shufang just smiled, looked at the middle-aged man, and said calmly: "How is it? Are you satisfied with this?"

"If you are satisfied, don't forget to come to the City God Temple to compete in three days."

Wan Shufang spoke these words clearly and arrogantly, which made the middle-aged man unhappy. He looked at Wan Shufang fiercely and said with gritted teeth: "Wan Shufang, don't be so arrogant. Be careful that you will be beaten to a pulp and lose everything."

"You don't have to worry about that. Since I dare to write the notice, I am naturally not afraid of winning or losing. Moreover, Qingyun Academy will definitely win." She said in a firm tone, and her eyes swept around, finally fixing on the middle-aged man.

"Now, the academies that want to participate in the competition can sign up to take part."

After the words fell, several academies looked at each other in hesitation. After they were sure that Wan Shufang was not lying, they all became excited.

"I'll come and sign up for Wuya Academy."

"The Fairy Academy has also signed up."

"Liuyan Academy..."

Wan Shufang raised her hand and told the clerk to remember these academies. In just a few minutes, twenty academies signed up to take part in the challenge, including the middle-aged man.

When the registration was over, everyone dispersed and returned to their own academies to prepare.

Before leaving, the middle-aged man glanced at Wan Shufang and said indignantly: "You are young and full of energy. In three days, you will know how to write the word regret."

"I've always known it, so don't worry about it." Wan Shufang smiled and made a gesture of invitation. The man left angrily, and she also returned to the academy with the list.

Only half a day later, the news that Wan Shufang had challenged other academies was known to other elders of Qingyun Academy, and several old guys hurried back.

In the meeting hall.

The old guys looked at Wan Shufang with disapproval in their eyes and blamed her: "Master Wan, how can you be so impulsive and arrogant? Not to mention the strength of those academies, can you guarantee to win every game?"

"If we lose, people will use it as an excuse to mock Qingyun Academy for not having any real talent."

"Yes, yes, Master Wan, you really were impulsive this time."

Their faces were filled with anxiety and they kept accusing each other. Wan Shufang didn't say a word the whole time, she just lowered her head, and no one knew what she was thinking.

This attitude made the old guys anxious. They felt that their authority was challenged and immediately became angry.

"Wan Shufang, we are talking to you, can you hear us?"

"I think she is just too arrogant. After receiving the silk banner, she thinks she is invincible and dares to issue any challenge."

"This kind of person is not worthy of staying in the academy, kick her out." Someone was trying to add insult to injury, and as soon as this was started, several people immediately followed suit.

For a while, there was constant noise in the courtyard. The dean was also very troubled. He looked at Wan Shufang in embarrassment, then at the elder. After receiving the dean's gaze, Wan Shufang gave him a soothing look.

Then he looked at the old guys and said softly: "Elders, I am sure I can win this matter, so you don't have to worry."

"If I can't win, the academy can kick me out. Everything is my fault. I have no complaints."
