Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Wang Tengs calm voice spread slowly, capturing the attention of everyone around him.
For a moment, you could hear a pin drop in the silence.
Wang Teng was about to directly revoke Ockhams associate council member status, a move considered exceptionally ruthless!
With this decision, Ockham not only lost face but also faced the prospect of losing his associate council member status. It was a severe blow, leaving him in a humiliating position.
Was it worth it to retaliate against Wang Teng at the cost of such heavy consequences?
Sympathy began to well up among the onlookers.
Yuan Mus expression changed slightly, and he looked at Wang Teng with a hint of astonishment. Revoking Ockhams associate council member status directly was a harsh move, leaving no room for compromise.
Wu De, too, was taken aback by Wang Tengs decision. He thought Wang Teng intended to make Ockham lose face, not to completely strip him of his associate council member status. Wasnt he afraid of offending those who supported Ockham behind the scenes?
In the past, Ockhams associate council member status got snatched by Wang Teng. Half a year later, when the councilor promotion assessment was about to start, he miraculously regained his associate council member status. There must be someone supporting him.
The heaven-stage martial warriors who attacked Wang Teng with Ockham were appalled. They stared at Wang Teng in disbelief.
If Ockham were revoked, they would be in a precarious situation.
However, they couldnt act at this moment. Wang Tengs actions made them wary, and the presence of Councilor Wu De deterred them from taking any reckless actions.
They felt locked down, and attempting to make a move would surely prompt Councilor Wu De to intervene.
They wouldnt be able to break this situation alone.
Pfft!
At this moment, Ockham, struggling to rise from the ground, heard Wang Tengs words and sprayed out another mouthful of blood. His eyes were filled with despair.
Enough, you can leave, Wang Teng glanced at him and said calmly.
Wang Teng! Ockham clenched his fist, his eyes bloodshot. He glared at Wang Teng, struggling to utter Wang Tengs name through gritted teeth.
Why arent you leaving? Is this not enough? Wang Teng asked.
Wang Teng, this is too much. 1 dont even know that youre a councilor... Ockham was furious and struggled to speak coherently.
Still want to argue? You knew my identity, yet, driven by personal grievances, you dared to attack me, belittling me for not having a solid foundation, trying to make me lose face. Do you have any respect for the Academy Arbitration Association? Wang Teng shouted fiercely.
You! Ockhams eyes widened. His fingers trembled as he pointed at Wang Teng. 1 didnt! Youre spouting nonsense!
Whether you did or not, you know it in your heart, Wang Teng sneered.
Wu Des expression turned strange. Wang Teng was not someone easy to deal with. Not only did he have a thick skin, but he also had a dark heart.
Enough!
Just at that moment, a stern voice rang out.
Wu Des expression shifted slightly, looking towards the void. A figure slowly emerged, walking through the air.
It was a martial warrior with long blue hair, appearing to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. His ears were slightly pointed, and he had a remarkably handsome face. A rhombus-shaped crystal was embedded at his forehead, seemingly fused with his flesh, giving off a mysterious aura.
This person was none other than a wind element fairy, a windranger!
Councilor Ernest!
Now he finally understood who was helping Ockham.
The person before them was a councilor who sided with the Judge and, at the same time, served as Ockhams backer.
Windranger! Wang Teng squinted. He didnt expect to meet another Windranger in the Stellar Academies.
In the Great Qian Empires No. 29 Defense Planet, he met a Windranger who was controlled by a dark apparition.
However, that person clearly couldnt compare to the figure before them.
The person standing before them was a universe-stage martial warrior. The faint aura emanating from him was beyond what a heaven-stage martial warrior could possess.
Windrangers were considered a powerful race in the universe, and the strength of a windranger who had grown to the universe stage could be imagined.
Councilor Ernest! Ockham was elated. He looked at the Windranger hopefully.
The other heaven-stage martial warriors also showed pleased expressions. Excellent, Councilor Ernesthad stepped in. Now, lets see how Wang Teng would handle this.
Yuan Mus eyes gleamed as he respectfully nodded toward Councilor Ernest. This councilor held a significant position in his brothers circle, and he had to maintain proper respect.
In the universe, showing enough respect to powerful individuals was considered a basic courtesy.
Councilor Ernest looked at Yuan Mu, a hint of a smile appearing on his face as he nodded slightly. Then, his gaze shifted to Wang Teng, and the smile faded away. He spoke in a calm tone, Councilor Wang Teng, its just a minor matter. Why make it such a big fuss? Give me some face, and lets consider this matter settled.
Councilor Ernest, right? Wang Teng asked.
Thats right. Ernest frowned slightly.
Seated in a position of authority with formidable strength, Councilor Ernest commanded respect from everyone. Even the Judges brother, Yuan Mu, showed him great deference.
However, the tone used by Wang Teng now left Ernest feeling an absence of respect.
Although both were councilors, Ernest had never considered them equals. This Wang Teng was just a freshman, similar to Yuan Mu.
While he was genuinely surprised that Wang Teng had defeated Ockham, it wasnt enough to impress him.
Engaging in a calm conversation with a cosmos-stage martial warrior like Wang Teng was already Ernests greatest act of mercy and patience.
Do you think its a small matter if a councilor from the Academy Arbitration Association is insulted, Councilor Ernest? Wang Teng countered.
Ernests brow furrowed even more deeply. Undoubtedly, Wang Teng had turned the tables on him. If he answered yes, he would be placing the dignity of a councilor in a precarious position.
If Councilor Ernest encounters such a situation, would you generously forgive others as well? Wang Teng grinned at him. Please, answer honestly. So many people are watching. If someone inadvertently offends Councilor Ernest in the future, will you also forgive them?
Ernests expression darkened, a cold glint flashing in his eyes as he stared at Wang Teng.
Wu De couldnt help but find it amusing. He initially intended to assist Wang Teng, but now he realized that even Ernest was at a disadvantage in front of him. It was quite entertaining.
Yuan Mu looked at Wang Teng with surprise, secretly sneering. He couldnt believe Wang Teng dared to confront Councilor Ernest like this. He was courting death.
Outrageous! Wang Teng, how dare you speak to Councilor Ernest like this? Ockham, enduring intense pain, shouted.
You heard it. This guy has no respect for me as a councilor, Wang Teng said, glancing at Ernest. He smiled faintly, a glint of coldness flashing in his eyes, and then vanished from his original position.
Ernests face darkened, reaching out to grab Wang Teng.
Wu De, however, intercepted him with a smile. Councilor Ernest, Ockham showed disrespect to a councilor and should face punishment.
Boom!
The next moment, Wang Teng appeared directly above Ockham, stomping down with tremendous force onto his head. The terrifying power erupted instantly.
You! Ockham never expected that Wang Teng would dare to act in front of Councilor Ernest. He looked at Wang Teng in disbelief.
Splat!
Without much time to think, a terrifying force surged into his body, causing him to scream in agony. He spat out a large amount of blood, and his entire body was forcefully pressed into the pit by Wang Teng.
You... rascal! His face turned pale, struggling to lift his head to gaze at Wang Teng.
What qualifications do you have to speak to me like that? Wang Teng looked down at Ockham with indifference.
Wang Teng! Ernests eyes glinted with coldness as he stared at Wang Teng, saying, Youve gone too far. Ockham is under my protection. You have no right to discipline him.
He disrespected me, so I have the right to discipline him. Any objections, Councilor Ernest? Wang Teng looked at him fearlessly and spoke.
This is the Academy Arbitration Association, not a place for your insolence, Ernest said coldly.
Is it wrong for me to discipline someone who disrespected me? Wang Teng asked.
Even if Ockham is at fault, you shouldnt have beaten him like this. Is this how you conduct yourself? Ernest reprimanded him in a cold voice.
My conduct is tit for tat. I treat friendly people with tea, and for those with hostility, Im sorry, but theres only this pair of fists. Wang Teng sneered.
Ockham is under your protection, so you intend to shield him? Wang Teng asked.
If Councilor Ernest has any objections to me, you can report to the Academy Arbitration Association and see if they can l What a sharp-tongued Councilor Wang Teng! Ernests face darkened to the extreme. Wang Teng had completely backed him into a corner, leaving him with no words. He coldly hummed, Todays events will be reported to the Academy Arbitration Association. Ill have all the councilors vote to revoke your councilor status. With your conduct, youre utterly unfit for the position of a councilor. Want to revoke my councilor status? Wang Teng laughed, tilting his head. Just you? Do you represent the entire Academy Arbitration Association? What did you say? Ernests expression turned icy. No one had dared to speak to him like this before. Wang Tengs repeated mockery infuriated him to the extreme. A terrifying aura erupted from him, pressing down on Wang Teng. Ignoring his status as a councilor, Ernest was ranked in the top twenty of the top 100 universe-stage martial warriors, making him one of the most powerful universe-stage martial warriors. He could easily crush Wang Teng, a mere cosmos-stage martial warrior, with just one finger. Yuan Mus expression changed instantly. Wang Teng was acting recklessly, pushing Ernest, a councilor, to such an extent. Wasnt he afraid of being suppressed on the spot? Although Wang Teng had already proven he could defeat Ockham, challenging Ernest was a different story. The onlookers below were also stunned. Wang Teng was too audacious, daring to confront even Councilor Ernest. Wasnt he afraid? Wang Tengs gaze focused, showing no fear of Ernests released pressure. In return, he emanated a terrifying aura. Lightning appeared in the void, displaying a mighty and unyielding presence. Simultaneously, an ancient and vast aura, as if traversing the endless ages, descended upon this world, leaving everyone in awe..
