The words had been spoken.

The entire classroom fell silent; everyone was looking at him as if they were witnessing a madman.

Qin Heng spoke with an indifferent tone, yet the content of his words was shockingly unconventional to the extreme.

Zhuang Zhou was of his grand-disciple's generation?!

Even Taishang Laojun's cultivation was inferior to his?!

Holy shit!

Qin Heng's boasting was way too much!

"Hahaha! I'm dying of laughter. Qin Heng, have you read too many novels? Do you think you're Lord Yuan Shi or the Leader of the Tongtian Sect?!"

"Damn, it's my first time seeing someone make such an excuse for not reciting the lesson! Next time my teacher asks me to recite the Tao Te Ching, I'll just say I'm Ancestor Hongjun, and that Lord Lao wouldn't dare ask me to recite it, hahaha!!"

The whole classroom erupted with laughter, everyone pointing at Qin Heng and laughing uproariously.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

"Quiet! No laughing allowed!" Su Xiao rapped on the lectern. She glanced over the students, then turned to Qin Heng and said, "Qin Heng, is this your attitude? Is this what you meant when you said you would study diligently even outside the classroom? Start reciting now, or else leave and stand as punishment!"

Su Xiao was usually good-tempered and seldom scolded anyone. However, Qin Heng's attitude today was truly unacceptable to her. Her disappointment that he wasn't trying hard enough finally made her angry.

Regarding Qin Heng's words, she didn't believe a single one!

"Qin Heng, don't be stubborn. Just recite it," a charming girl sitting near the door said softly.

This was Chu Yun, the Chinese class representative, with her long hair draped over her shoulders and wearing glasses. Her demeanor was elegant and distinguished. She had a good relationship with Qin Heng and didn't want to see him confront the teacher.

Qin Heng looked around calmly, his gaze finally resting on the Chinese textbook on Su Xiao's lectern. He shook his head slightly and said, "I still won't recite it. Otherwise, there will be a problem with the Chinese textbooks here."

"What!?" Su Xiao was truly angry this time. Her pretty face flushed red as she took off her glasses and picked up the Chinese textbook. Glaring at Qin Heng, she said sternly, "Qin Heng, I'm right here listening. Let's see what problem could possibly occur with my Chinese textbook!"

The other students were also looking forward to the excitement, curious to see how Qin Heng would get himself out of this. Claiming that Zhuang Zhou didn't dare to make him recite 'Free and Easy Wandering'—saying such a thing was utterly laughable!

"There's really no helping it." Qin Heng sighed lightly, resignedly saying, "In the northern darkness, there is a fish, and its name is Kun..."

The moment his voice began...

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

A gust of wind rose outside, causing Su Xiao and the other students to tense up.

It had been a sunny day, without a cloud in sight.

How had the wind suddenly started blowing?

Yet no one associated it with Qin Heng; they all thought it was a coincidence.

"...When the Peng journeys to the southern darkness, the water splashes for three thousand li..." Qin Heng continued reciting with an unfazed expression, while Su Xiao nodded in satisfaction.

CLANG!

Just then, the classroom windows were suddenly blown open by a burst of wind.

The sudden gust caused everyone present to shudder.

WHOOSH!

The wild wind surged into the room through the windows!

The Chinese textbook in Su Xiao's hand was blown away, its pages fluttering wildly in the wind. When it landed on the floor, it happened to open to the page of 'Free and Easy Wandering.'

BANG! BANG!

The classroom's water dispenser was knocked over by the wind. A whole bucket of water spilled out, drenching Su Xiao's Chinese textbook. The pressure from the fallen dispenser then shredded the 'Free and Easy Wandering' page beyond recognition—it was unreadable!

In just a few seconds, Su Xiao's Chinese textbook, used for teaching, was completely ruined!

Silence!

The whole classroom suddenly fell into silence.

Everyone stared at Qin Heng in disbelief. Had something really gone wrong?!

Su Xiao was stunned, staring incredulously at the tattered Chinese textbook on the floor.

She discovered that only remnants of the 'Free and Easy Wandering' page were left; the rest had been torn to shreds by the force of the water dispenser and soaked in water, rendering the characters illegible.

Eerie! This is too eerie! How could such a thing happen?!

"...Is the azure of the heavens its true color?..." Qin Heng continued to recite as if he hadn't noticed what had just occurred.

BOOM!

CLANG!

Like an earthquake, the already closed classroom door was blown open by the wind, smashing against the adjacent wall. The glass shattered, and countless shards fell to the floor.

This left everyone dumbfounded, including Chu Yun, the Chinese class representative who had just urged Qin Heng to recite.

What's happening?? Everyone was flabbergasted.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

The classroom's main door having been blown open, the wind's ferocity increased even further. All the Chinese textbooks in the classroom were whisked into the air, fluttering chaotically.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The windows on the other side were also blown open, and some of the Chinese textbooks that had been blown into the air were now flying out through these windows!

"Stop reciting! Stop reciting!!"

Su Xiao hastily shouted, trying to stop Qin Heng from continuing his recitation.

Regardless of whether what just happened was a coincidence, she had to make Qin Heng stop reciting first!

My goodness! This is truly terrifying!!

"I told you, Zhuang Zhou doesn't dare to have me recite," Qin Heng said helplessly, spreading his hands. He turned around, returned to his seat, and sat down.

Although my current cultivation is only at the Qi Refinement Realm, my Divine Sense and Daoist Realm are genuinely Eternal, above Daluo, surpassing the Three Pure Ones. Zhuang Zhou's Realm is barely Daluo; he's still far behind. As long as I don't want to recite, and someone else demands that I do, it immediately triggers a response from the Heaven and Earth Laws, naturally causing an anomaly. The situation now is still mild. If I were to recite the entire 'Free and Easy Wandering,' it's probable that all Chinese textbooks in Tianhai City containing the text would be ruined!

After Qin Heng sat down, the wild wind outside gradually subsided.

The Chinese textbooks, previously scattered by the wind, also fell to the ground.

The wind stopped!

The classmates were shocked once again!

Holy shit! It actually stopped?! Unbelievable!!

"Alright everyone, don't move around. Let's clean up the classroom first."

Su Xiao spoke up to mobilize the students. They closed the windows and cleaned up the shattered glass from the door. Then, she looked at Qin Heng with a complex expression, took a deep breath, and said, "Qin Heng, this time... this must have been a coincidence. As your teacher, I will continue to monitor your studies closely."

People new to a job are often full of enthusiasm, and Su Xiao was no exception. Right now, she wished every student in her class would study hard.

But the incident just now had really scared her.

She dared not ask Qin Heng to recite again.

Too terrifying! Way too weird!!

「...」

The Chinese class ended, and Qin Heng lay listlessly on his desk.

Su Xiao had already left.

More than a dozen classmates, both boys and girls, surrounded Qin Heng's desk, continuously asking about what had just happened.

This is insane! Just reciting the text caused the wind and clouds to surge!

The gale scattering the Chinese textbooks was like a natural disaster, completely defying belief!

Qin Heng couldn't be bothered with them.

At that moment, Chen Feng, the Discipline Minister of the student council, entered the classroom.

He approached Qin Heng's desk.

The surrounding students, seeing Chen Feng approach, all moved aside, not daring to block his path.

The student council's Discipline Department reports directly to the principal. Chen Feng, as the Discipline Minister, has power only slightly less than the Dean of Studies! He's definitely someone the students avoid provoking!

Why is he looking for Qin Heng? many wondered.

Chen Feng was tall and well-built, with a handsome face, making him a prominent figure in Tianhai No.1 Middle School. His visit to Qin Heng's class, Grade 3 Class 2, also drew attention from other classes.

Most of them were girls, staring at Chen Feng through the windows, their eyes nearly sparkling like stars.

"Qin Heng, Principal Li wants you to go see him," Chen Feng said, looking down at Qin Heng, who was sprawled on his desk. There was a trace of scorn in his gaze as he continued, "Principal Li probably found out you've skipped too many classes. Who knows if he'll expel you!

"Frankly, trash like you is a disgrace to Tianhai No.1 Middle School. Skipping classes to go out and have fun... If you get expelled, it'll be cause for celebration. Get up! Come with me to see Principal Li!"

Chen Feng had a significant conflict with the original Qin Heng and, at this juncture, would not miss an opportunity to taunt him.

"Principal Li?" Qin Heng, still lying on the desk, sneered. "If Li Hecai wants to see me, tell him to come here himself. Don't send a dog to yap in front of me; it's too noisy!"
