Seeing Su Mingren's attitude, Xiao Feng walked up to him, grabbed him, and pulled him in front of Li Dehua: "If you are wrong, you have to apologize for your actions."

Su Mingren's face was full of resentment, and he refused to say a word of apology no matter what.

Seeing that Su Mingren was unwilling to apologize to them, the students quickly said to Xiao Feng, "If he's not willing to apologize, then... let's just let it go."

They had no idea who Xiao Feng was.

If Xiao Feng ever leaves the city, Su Mingren will definitely cause them trouble again.

Just as Xiao Feng was about to speak after hearing that the students didn't need Su Mingren to apologize, Su Mingren's voice rang out: "You heard that? I was planning to apologize to them."

Xiao Feng originally thought that Su Mingren would thank them, but no one expected him to show such an expression.

Since that was the case, he felt he didn't need to give his former comrade any face, and the Mountain and River Sword was suddenly drawn and landed beside him.

Xiao Feng pointed his chin at the Mountain and River Sword beside him and said, "If you refuse to apologize, don't blame me for showing no mercy with my sword."

Although he had never witnessed the power of the Mountain and River Sword firsthand, he had heard in the city that Xiao Feng had once fought the city lord to a draw using the Mountain and River Sword.

If this Mountain and River Sword were to fall into his hands, he would have no ability to resist its impact.

Left with no other choice, Su Mingren had to compromise and approached Li Dehua, saying, "I'm sorry, I was wrong before. I promise I won't treat you like that again."

Li Dehua originally thought that Xiao Feng would blindly side with Su Mingren's team, but no one expected that he would actually switch sides and stand with his own team.

At this point, Li Dehua's opinion of Xiao Feng changed drastically, and he came to see him as a righteous person.

He greeted the students beside him, saying, "Help me up, I can't lie on the ground."

That attack just now sent him flying, almost smashing through the academy wall.

Within two breaths, the students helped him up from the ground and led him to sit at a perfectly intact table.

Xiao Feng walked up to him, a smile on his face: "How are you? Your body should be fine now, right?"

With his strength as a first-level cultivator, he was not strong enough to knock someone down with a single punch, and he believed that Li Dehua in front of him was not seriously injured.

Li Dehua pulled open his clothes and pointed to the fist marks inside: "Look, this is what you just made."

Fortunately, Xiao Feng's strength had already reached the first-level cultivator level, otherwise he could have shattered Li Dehua's internal organs with a single punch.

Just then, Su Mingren walked up to Xiao Feng, his face cold: "Can we leave now, young master of the Xiao family?"

This time, he no longer regarded Xiao Feng as his friend, but as his enemy.

He was the one who asked for help, but no one expected it to have the opposite effect, making him lose face completely.

When the spoiled young masters around saw Su Mingren walk up to them, they quickly lowered their heads and didn't dare to say a word.

Su Mingren glared at them and said, "You guys are always so eager to come out and have fun, but when I ask for your help, you all stay silent."

Although the spoiled brat was scolded by him, he still followed behind Su Mingren, and the group left.

As soon as they left, Li Dehua stood up, glanced at Xiao Feng, and said, "We owe you a favor for what just happened, so I'll be leaving now."

This time, he had recovered his strength and could walk forward without anyone's help.

As Xiao Feng watched Li Dehua walk to the academy gate, he couldn't help but say to Li Dehua, "Wait."

Upon hearing Xiao Feng's voice, Li Dehua subconsciously turned around and saw Xiao Feng charging towards him with both palms raised.

In an instant, he gathered the power within his body into his palms and unleashed a palm strike.

However, their spiritual energies were completely asymmetrical. Xiao Feng sent Li Dehua flying with a single palm strike, sending him crashing heavily into the wall.

The students thought Xiao Feng had joined their side, but no one expected that Xiao Feng would actually succeed in a sneak attack.

Li Dehua looked at Xiao Feng with a shocked expression: "You...you...you actually ambushed me."

Xiao Feng looked at Li Dehua with a solemn expression and found that his skills were just as he had guessed.

He clearly possesses spiritual power within him, but it is extremely weak. Without systematic training, he likely does not belong to any particular sect.

The students came to Li Dehua and helped him up from the ground, sitting him down at his desk.

Li Dehua looked at Xiao Feng with a surprised expression, his brows furrowing slightly, not understanding why he would attack him.

Suddenly, one of the students stood up, his face full of anger: "I refuse to believe that there is no place in the world where we can reason things out. I'm going to tell the people in the government."

The other students all turned their attention to Xiao Feng, as if they wanted to see if he would make a move.

However, Xiao Feng's actions were merely a test for Li Dehua; he had no intention of becoming an opponent for all the students.

Xiao Feng remained motionless throughout the entire process of letting the student leave, as if waiting for the county officials to arrive.

Li Dehua glanced in Xiao Feng's direction and asked, "Aren't you leaving?"

Xiao Feng shrugged indifferently: "Why should I leave here? I admit what I did."

That palm strike was to test the spiritual energy within Li Dehua's body, and now he has the answer.

However, he admitted that the spiritual power in that palm strike was indeed too strong, almost killing the person.

In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a sound came from the academy gate.

Xiao Feng glanced at the entrance and saw that many government officials had come inside. He immediately spotted Xiao Feng sitting calmly inside.

The students pointed in Xiao Feng's direction, their faces filled with anger: "It was him... who tried to kill our people. It was too much!"

The county officials approached Xiao Feng, their faces ashen: "Please come with us. Why did you make a move here?"

Hearing the subtle hints of blame in their voices, Xiao Feng stood up with an indifferent expression: "I'll go with you."

Given his status, he could do whatever he wanted in this city.

Even if the magistrate imprisoned him, Xiao Feng was confident he could escape.

Li Dehua looked at Xiao Feng with a surprised expression, not understanding why he would obediently follow behind.

Xiao Feng never used his spiritual power from beginning to end, following behind him with a faint smile on his face the whole time.
