Chapter 622: A slap is a sign of respect
The place where the dishes were set out was already surrounded by people, and the crowd was clearly divided.
On one side were the poor students of Peaceful Academy, and on the other side were the people from National Academy, with others on the periphery who had come to watch the excitement.
The man in charge of Peaceful Academy already had a fresh red slap mark on his face.
Next to the dandy, who was insulting and harassing him with words, there were several Divine Martial Guards, as well as the colleagues from the National Academy.
Although the strength of these warriors was only at the sixth rank, it was still more than enough to deal with weak scholars who had not yet entered the Literature Saint Dao Lineage.
The dandy sneered, “This slap is to teach you manners. When you’re outside, if you break something, you’ll have to make up for it.”
“If everyone just walked away like you, how would this Literature Gathering continue year after year?”
A student from the National Academy immediately chimed in, “That’s why I said the existence of the Peaceful Academy is nothing but a joke. How can ordinary people ever become true scholars?”
After a few more exchanges, the onlookers seemed to understand the situation.
