Chapter 560: Chapter 559: Technical Summary After the Event

When the National Cup Organizing Committee’s disciplinary team arrived at the hotel, the courageous students from Daxia had already subdued the "thugs" who had been causing trouble.

Because the incident involved foreign contestants, staff members from the Goryeo Consulate in Daxia also came along.

When the staff from the Goryeo Consulate saw Kim Jisoo with his nose prosthetic knocked off, they were instantly furious and demanded a satisfactory explanation from the organizers.

However, when the disciplinary team questioned the Daxia students present, everyone said that it was the Goryeo side that had unprovokedly assaulted the accompanying teacher, they even suggested that Kim Jisoo might have manic syndrome while expressing their concerns about competing with such a person.

Having no choice, the disciplinary team had to send the injured to receive medical treatment first.

Meanwhile, an edited video titled ’Goryeo student assaulting someone’ spread quickly online, rapidly making its way to the top of the trending search list.

The Goryeo students’ foul attitudes and remarks in the video, along with their unprovoked attacks on the accompanying teacher, immediately sparked strong disapproval among Daxia’s netizens, who also took to bombarding the Goryeo Consulate in Daxia’s social media accounts.

Goryeo, under pressure, demanded that the surveillance video of the scene be made public. Unfortunately, there was a "technical fault" with the surveillance equipment in the restaurant where the incident occurred, preventing it from working.

The only evidence available was the short video posted online and the accounts given by the Daxia students present.

As for the participants from Goryeo, their accounts varied among the five of them, the only consistency being in favor of their own side, but clearly, such claims were not acknowledged by the disciplinary team as they believed them to be concealing the truth.

Eventually, pushed by public opinion pressure, the Goryeo Minister of Consulate had to make concessions, disable the comment function on consulate social media, claiming they would no longer pursue the matter, and the Organizing Committee’s disciplinary team banned the involved Goryeo students from competition.

With that, the matter was finally concluded.

"You really are something, can’t deny it. I thought staying away from you would keep me out of trouble, but I guess I’m still too young..."

Shao Zifeng stood in the hotel corridor, grinning as he listened to the complaints coming through the phone: "Old Cang, I owe you one this time."

"Ah, what trouble. Talking about these vague things doesn’t make any sense, not as good as something concrete."

Shao Zifeng thought for a moment, "How about I treat you to a drink sometime?"

The moment he said this, the other end of the phone became silent, followed only by Cang Haiyuan’s heavy breathing.

Click.

A crisp lighter sound was heard, then a deep exhale: "Shao Zifeng, if you still consider me a friend, please never ask me out for a drink. You can party all you want in Yundu, but this is the capital!"

Shao Zifeng’s face darkened.

What does that mean, saying I can’t hold my liquor?

He was just about to retort when someone called out to Cang Haiyuan on the other side.

"I’ve got something here, gotta hang up." Before he hung up, he added, "You did well this time, I’ve been irritated by those guys from the north for a while now."

After hanging up, Shao Zifeng pushed open the door and entered the room, several pairs of eyes immediately turned to look at him.

Shao Zifeng changed into slippers and said with a smile, "It’s all settled, those few from Goryeo have been banned."

"Captain is awesome!!" Hu Shiwu bellowed, then circled around him asking, "Captain, where have you been these last few days, your phone was unreachable."

"Where did you get this outfit, it’s really cool!"

"Eh, why are you looking at me like that..."

Shao Zifeng watched the noisy Hu Shiwu without saying a word.

Feeling a bit sheepish under his gaze, Hu Shiwu glanced around and saw that no one else intended to speak, then said dejectedly, "I was wrong, Captain."

With his arms crossed and leaning against the shoe cabinet, Shao Zifeng looked at him with interest, "What were you wrong about?"

"How would I know?"

"However, admitting fault first in this kind of situation is definitely not wrong."

Hu Shiwu thought for a moment, then spoke in a low voice, "I shouldn’t have caused trouble."

Shao Zifeng looked at him seriously for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Who said you were wrong? What you did just now wasn’t bad."

"Really?" Hu Shiwu’s eyes lit up, his spirits instantly restored, and he said with a smug face, "Heh, I’m not bragging, but I coddled that kid like I was coddling my son."

"Don’t celebrate too early," Shao Zifeng timely threw a wet blanket over him, "Although your intentions weren’t bad, your approach was too rough. If I hadn’t come back, what were you planning to do next?"

Hu Shiwu thought seriously for a moment, "I run?"

"And the others? You might manage to escape using your advantage, but wouldn’t the others be dragged down by you?" Shao Zifeng patted his shoulder, saying earnestly, "Your advantage is clear, but if you only see it as a burden, then this advantage will surely become your eternal burden."

"Think about it, if you hadn’t stepped up but instead kept to the shadows and followed them, waiting for a chance to use your advantage to strike a covert blow, to sow discord, or even to spread lies, wouldn’t all these have caused less damage than insulting them in front of everyone?"

Hu Shiwu wore a thoughtful expression.

As Shao Zifeng had said, he indeed treated his ability as a burden. The reason he had stepped forward was because he felt he could extricate himself afterward and also briefly satisfy his desire to be the center of attention. As for what happened next, it was out of his consideration.

"And you know," Shao Zifeng was getting more enthusiastic as he spoke, just as he tried to delve deeper with Hu Shiwu about his insights, he noticed Casar and the others were casting increasingly strange glances at him.

Especially Li Yiming, who now always felt like he was being tricked.

"Ahem..." Shao Zifeng withdrew his right hand from Hu Shiwu’s shoulder and asked nonchalantly, "Ms. Xiaoyu, I haven’t paid much attention to many things these past few days. Could you tell me what’s the deal with that Korean competitor?"

Yu Xiaoyu was sneakily eating something when, faced with Shao Zifeng’s sudden question, she panicked and shoved an entire French roll into her mouth, choking and rolling her eyes.

Seeing this, Shao Zifeng’s lips twitched.

Indeed, Ms. Xiaoyu was still the same Ms. Xiaoyu.

Accepting a drink handed to her by Li Yiren, Yu Xiaoyu washed down the roll with the beverage.

She sat up straight, crossed her long legs in a ladylike pose, and then said pretentiously in a delicate voice, "Student Shao wants to ask about the competition."

Shao Zifeng gave her a look of disgust, "Be normal."

"Oh," Yu Xiaoyu suddenly slumped, lying back listlessly like a salted fish, "There’s not much to say about the competition. Xiang Nan played very well in the match after you left, and then he luckily drew a bye."

"As for the Korean student," Yu Xiaoyu pouted, "It isn’t just Korean competitors; since you left, competitors from the Bald Eagle, European Federation, Fuso, Southern Viet and several other countries and federations have consecutively arrived."

After saying this, she waved at Shao Zifeng and said gossipy, "Let me tell you, I heard the prize for this competition’s winner is very generous, including something that lets pets rapidly learn skills."

Li Yiming and the others were surprised, Is there such a thing?

"Wow..." Hu Shiwu was the first to speak, "I thought pet skills could only be learned through study and evolution, and progression, right?"

Yu Xiaoyu was pleased with the students’ reactions, she swung her toes and said proudly, "That I don’t know; it’s what some sisters I was doing SPA with..."

At this, she hastily shut her mouth and sneaked a glance at Shao Zifeng, seeing that he wasn’t paying attention to her, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Shao Zifeng thought for a moment, "What about the schedule for the upcoming matches?"

"It’s been rearranged," Xian Xiaoyu said listlessly when not gossiping, like a dreamless salted fish, "This time dozens of foreign teams came, plus the hundred or so of us remaining, we’ve been pushed to the day after tomorrow."
