Chapter 374: Ashamed to be a Teacher
As he walked through the National Academy, Qin Feng did not hear the sound of loud reading, nor did he see the students studying hard at the cold window.
A group of well-dressed young men with various decorations were chatting there.
However, when Qin Feng listened closely, he realized that they were not discussing serious matters, but rather gossiping about romantic affairs or admiring the beauties in certain brothels. They werent talking about anything serious.
Even in some lecture halls where teachers were teaching, the audience seemed disinterested, and some even blatantly slept on their desks.
This was in stark contrast to Qin Fengs impression of scholars.
It was not without reason that Great Qian revered martial arts but was weak in literature. He couldnt help but sigh.
After passing a calss, Lan Ningshuang suddenly shouted, Young master, look, isnt that the young man who guided us earlier? Why is he standing outside?
Qin Feng followed her gaze and indeed saw a young man standing outside.
The clothes on his body were already thin, and combined with the cold weather, he couldnt help but shiver from the cold.
There were several other young men like him standing next to him, all with red faces and shivering bodies from the cold.
However, despite the harsh conditions, they remained focused on the lecture inside the classroom, listening intently to the young man speaking on the stage.
Looking around the room, a group of young men were focused not on the lecturer, but on the young men outside the room.
Their eyes were filled with disgust and contempt, and they even mocked and pointed at the young men outside.
Qin Feng frowned. He had long known that the Grand Literature Academy was not kind to the children of poor families, but he had never imagined that they would be so heartless and insane.
The young man on the stage who treated these students differently was truly unworthy of being a teacher!
As an outsider, Qin Feng couldnt directly confront the young man; otherwise, it might backfire and lead to even more mistreatment of these youngsters in the future.
After careful consideration, he took out various pieces of clothing from his spatial ring.
Understanding his intention, Lan Ningshuang approached with the clothes and began to help the shivering youths put them on.
This sudden act left the young men confused. They came from humble backgrounds and were used to unfair treatment and cold words. When had they ever experienced such kindness?
The bittersweet and touching moment brought tears to their eyes.
The young man who had guided them recognized Qin Feng and weakly said, Thank you, brother.
Qin Feng smiled and nodded in recognition. Although he was able to help these youths, his abilities were indeed limited.
After giving away the clothes, he was about to leave. At that moment, an arrogant young master arrived late and said loudly: Master Li, Han Zhi and the others arent paying attention to the lecture!
Master Li is of course the young man who gave the lecture, while Han Zhi is the young man who guided Qin Feng.
The young instructor had noticed Qin Feng and his friends actions outside the room a long time ago.
At first, he wanted to turn a blind eye, after all, he had no interest in whether these poor students attended or not.
However, when someone spoke up, he could no longer ignore it.
The arrogant young master who came late was the youngest son of a third-rank official in the court. Whether or not he could rise in the imperial court depended largely on the background of this young man.
Han Zhi, what are you doing? If you dont want to listen to my lecture, you dont need to come.
And who are you? I made them listen to the lecture outside as punishment for being late. If they cant bear this little hardship, theyd better give up studying and go home soon. That way I wont be bothered. The young man spoke sternly.
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to the arrogant young man with a smile and said, Master Fu, come inside quickly. Its freezing outside. Dont let your body freeze.
Young Master Fu entered the school with a proud look on his face.
The group of youths outside the room lowered their heads in silence, unsure of where to put their hands.
This blatant discrimination made Qin Feng laugh.
Unable to stand it any longer, he spoke up, Being punished for being late is understandable. However, as a teacher, you should treat everyone equally.
Why do they have to listen to the lecture outside as a punishment for being late, while this young man who just arrived can enter the classroom?
Young minds are naturally unruly; as a teacher, you should set an example. If you treat the privileged and the poor differently, wont they grow up to be like you?
When the Teacher Li heard this, he turned his head, frowned, and said, This is my classroom. How I do things and how I teach is none of the outsiders business.
Besides, Master Fu is the son of the grand master. How can he be compared to these ordinary people? He usually gets etiquette lessons at home, and being a little late is forgivable.
But what important business could these poor students have? Theyre probably just fooling around on the way, thats why theyre late.
At that moment, the young man named Fu raised his hand and said, Teacher Li, youre wrong. I just overslept because its cold.
Teacher Li was immediately contradicted, and the atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Since he couldnt vent his anger on Master Fu, he directed it at the poor students outside, If I had known you were so unruly, I wouldnt have accepted you into the school in the first place.
How many teachers in the entire National Academy would be willing to accept you? Its really unfortunate. If you still want to attend my lecture, take off the clothes that person gave you and honestly stand outside, or dont bother to come in the future.
Upon hearing these words, the young masters in the room immediately started making noise.
Han Zhi and a group of young men were relatively young, and at that moment, all the accumulated bitterness and resentment surged into their hearts and turned into rolling tears.
Seeing this, Young Man Li not only felt no remorse, but also proudly looked at Qin Feng and said, Not everyone can stay in the National Academy. Influencing others teachings is a violation of the rules. Why dont you leave?
You! Lan Ningshuang frowned slightly. She had endured the other partys harsh attitude for a long time. Now that she heard the insult to her brother-in-law, she wanted to step forward and teach him a lesson.
However, a figure in black was faster than her. He took three steps and two steps at a time and ran into the classroom. Then the crisp sound of a slap resounded.
For a moment, the whole class fell silent.
Master Li covered his face in disbelief: You dare to hit me?!
Qin Feng rubbed his wrist, So what if I hit you?
Do you know where this is? This is the National Academy. You dare to hit me. You are just courting death! Help, someone, help! The young man became hysterical.
Slap!
Qin Feng slapped him again with his backhand. The young man was stunned and froze in place, even forgetting to scream.
Sorry, I have OCD. Seeing one side of your face swollen while the other is unharmed makes me feel uncomfortable. Youre not mad at me, are you?
The young man didnt understand what OCD meant, only that he had been humiliated in public twice.
At this moment, he no longer cared about anything and rushed towards Qin Feng like a madman, Im going to kill you!
