41: Chapter 41 He's back to collect his debt!

Three months ago, Li Mo's strength was like an ant in front of Class Monitor Zhang Li.

But now, Class Monitor Zhang Li couldn't even withstand a single ordinary punch from Li Mo, thrown using only his base stats!

This scene left everyone stunned.

"How did Li Mo's strength increase so quickly?"

"Didn't he get expelled and sent to The Military? It's like he's cheating!"

"Damn! Class Monitor is in the top five of the grade! He couldn't even last one round in his hands!"

...

Li Mo's gaze swept across his classmates; his cold and stern expression frightened them into silence.

"Is there anyone else who wants to come?" Li Mo asked indifferently.

Are you kidding?

If a student like Class Monitor Zhang Li, who is in the top five of the grade, was insta-killed by Li Mo, wouldn't anyone else going up be like a moth to a flame?

For a moment, no one dared to speak loudly again.

Xu Feng, who was in the middle of beating someone, also stared in a daze, pausing his movements for a moment.

At this moment, he looked at the half-dead Zhou Run on the ground and asked: "Should I keep hitting him?"

Zheng Jiahao hesitated for a moment, then glanced at the silent Li Mo, roughly understanding Li Mo's intention.

"I said beat to death. You should understand what the words 'beat to death' mean, right?"

"OK!"

Xu Feng continued his actions, and Zhou Run on the ground was already as good as dead, like a dying dog.

This matter quickly reached the ears of their homeroom teacher, Teacher Cao Yun.

Starry Sky University's assessment of teachers is actually quite strict. If a student is beaten to death on campus, the homeroom teacher of the class the student belongs to will face severe punishment.

The lightest penalty would be suspension!

Last time, Teacher Cao Yun's failure to bring back Li Mo had already infuriated the school leader, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu. He had used all his strength to barely manage to stay at the school, and if another incident like this occurred, his position would likely be impossible to keep.

However, the person relaying the message only said that Zhou Run was about to be beaten to death, but no one mentioned who was doing the beating.

Therefore, when Teacher Cao Yun rushed to the scene in a panic, he was terrified as soon as he saw Li Mo's face.

Teacher Cao Yun slammed on the brakes in the school corridor; now, looking at Li Mo was like looking at a plague god.

He didn't even want to have any further involvement with Li Mo!

The incident last time at The Military camp, where he was beaten until his skin was torn by Zhang Ruxue, was still fresh in his memory; even now, he hadn't fully recovered!

He didn't want to experience such a terrifying ordeal a second time!

"Why is this guy like a ghost that won't go away! Didn't he say he wouldn't return to school? Why is he back?" Teacher Cao Yun cursed inwardly.

Immediately, he put on a smiling face for the teacher who delivered the message: "Teacher Liu, I need to use the restroom, I'll go relieve myself first!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Teacher Cao Yun turned and left, moving with astonishing speed.

He didn't look like he was going to the restroom at all; he looked like he was running away.

The messenger, Teacher Liu, was dumbfounded. His own student was about to be beaten to death, yet he wanted to go to the bathroom at a time like this?

Of course, Teacher Cao Yun wasn't going to the restroom; he was finding an excuse to notify a higher-level school leader!

Although he was wicked, he wasn't stupid.

If Li Mo were still his student, he could handle this matter.

But the situation was different now; Li Mo represented The Military. If he, a teacher at Starry Sky University, were to have a conflict with Li Mo, it would mean a conflict between Starry Sky University and The Military. He couldn't bear such a huge responsibility.

Therefore, he had to find a higher-level school leader.

And the person he was looking for was none other than the current Deputy Mayor of the capital, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu.

In fact, Li Mo had already seen Teacher Cao Yun fleeing in a panic through the corner of his eye. He chuckled to himself but didn't expose him.

If he wanted to thoroughly investigate Starry Sky University, Li Mo would have to face these high-level leaders sooner or later, so Teacher Cao Yun going to notify the high-level leaders played right into Li Mo's hands.

...

Teacher Cao Yun stumbled into Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu's office, unable to even speak clearly.

"Leader, it's... it's bad! Li Mo is back!"

Upon hearing this, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu was actually a bit happy, thinking that Li Mo had changed his mind and was prepared to return to Starry Sky University.

But immediately after, he saw the look on Teacher Cao Yun's face and realized that things were not that simple.

"What exactly is going on?"

"I have a student who seems to have gotten into a conflict with Li Mo and talked back to him a few times, and then Li Mo dragged him to the steps, intending to beat him to death in front of the entire school's teachers and students!"

Hearing this, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu immediately snorted coldly: "Serves him right! Do you think I can't guess how you people bullied Li Mo in the past?"

Seeing this, Teacher Cao Yun looked troubled: "Leader, what should we do then? We can't really let him beat my student to death in the street, right? Zhou Run's father seems to be a leader in the Energy Bureau..."

Hearing this, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu's expression finally loosened up a bit.

"Could I really just watch him beat our school's student to death? Where would that leave Starry Sky University's reputation? In the future, wouldn't The Military treat our university like their own backyard?"

Speaking of this, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu suddenly sighed heavily.

"This Li Mo, he has come back to collect a debt!"

After speaking, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu followed Teacher Cao Yun and hurried to the scene.

However, by the time the two arrived, it was already one step too late.

Even though Zhou Run had a body forged by hard training, he couldn't withstand Xu Feng's repeated violent blows. He rolled his eyes, and there was no breath left in him.

A cold corpse lay there on the steps of Starry Sky University.

Where had this group of students ever seen such a scene? They were frightened pale, and some even scattered and fled.

"Ah! Someone died!"

"Li Mo actually dared to beat someone to death at Starry Sky University!"

"It's too terrifying! The corpse is covered in blood!"

The students in the university were far inferior to soldiers like Li Mo who had personally been on the battlefield.

A corpse was enough to scare them like this.

If they encountered exotic beasts, they would probably have weak knees immediately.

If they encountered those assassins from the Black Death Group, it would be considered brave if they didn't pee themselves.

Seeing Zhou Run's corpse on the steps, a trace of anger appeared on Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu's face.

"Li Mo, if you hadn't beaten this person to death, perhaps there would still be room for maneuver in this matter."

"But since you killed him, the nature of the matter has changed! What do you think Starry Sky University is? Do you think you're amazing just because you're a military officer? I'm telling you, no one dares to act wild at Starry Sky University!"

"Are you in The Military planning to trample over my Starry Sky University?"

A terrifying aura radiated from Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu, and the pressure of the Liangyi Realm was released, as if it wanted to tear Li Mo into pieces.

However, after having faced assassins of the Liangyi Realm from the Black Death Group, this bit of pressure from Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu was simply child's play in front of Li Mo.

Li Mo ignored him and looked at Teacher Cao Yun behind him.

"Teacher Cao, it's been a few months, and you're not even going to say hello? Are you feeling better from the injuries you sustained at The Military camp last time?"

Teacher Cao Yun was terrified by these words. He didn't want to have any connection with Li Mo at all and was even hiding on the side. But in this situation, Li Mo was taking the initiative to speak to him—wasn't this like roasting him over a fire?

However, before he could answer, Deputy Mayor Zhu Wu, who had been ignored, became even more furious and flashed directly in front of Li Mo.

"Li Mo, I am talking to you! Is The Military planning to deal with my Starry Sky University?"
