Tatake’s limbs were crippled.
He mastered the secret of [Arcane Magic], and if he wished, he could complete the reconstruction of his limbs in a few breaths, with the strength of the newly restored limbs dropping at most by two ranks, which overall, would still be far superior to that of ordinary people.
But he dared not do so.
Because the one who crippled his limbs was Ye Fengqing.
Without the other’s permission, he absolutely could not allow himself to heal as before.
Bulbous masses of yellow light branched out from Tatake’s limbs, forming shapes resembling limbs, barely supporting him in his approach to Ye Fengqing, where he knelt on one knee.
The substitutes for limbs constructed from this arcane brilliance seed sowhat rough and shoddy, obviously only capable of performing the simplest, most basic activities, unable even to accomplish the precise daily movents that a normal person could.
Tatake could easily create more advanced prosthetics, and even regenerate flesh and grow limbs that completely matched his body.
But at this very mont, he didn’t entertain that thought at all.
He just knelt in front of Ye Fengqing, shivering, appearing entirely like a stray dog wagging its tail and pleading to a human.
All the mbers of the academic society present remained silent, their emotions extrely complex.
Despite Tatake’s current disgraced appearance, and even his character being dismissed in just a few words by Su Qiangwei, everyone knew well that, purely in terms of strength, probably only Ma Ran and Ye Fengqing could undoubtedly defeat this guy, and even Su Qiangwei would have to fight to see who might actually erge stronger.
However, such a strong individual, upon encountering Ye Fengqing, seed like a mouse seeing a cat, nearly frightened out of his wits, with no trace of his forr aristocratic grace, unable even to retain his personality and dignity, directly kneeling on the ground, just short of bowing his head fervently in place.
"Really interesting."
Though she spoke thus, a hint of disdain appeared on Su Qiangwei’s face as she whispered into Ma Ran’s ear: "This guy just arrived saying he was forced here by Granny Ye."
"Listening to his tone back then, one wouldn’t have thought he had much respect for Granny Ye, initially assuming he was tough, strong enough to prick in front of Granny Ye."
"Now after seeing the real person..."
"And this is the result?"
"Too disappointing!"
Ma Ran glanced at Su Qiangwei with a blank expression, just slightly nodding in response.
As for Su Qiangwei...
Classically enjoying the spectacle without caring about the trouble, finding joy and delight in seeing others fight, now finding it uninteresting that Tatake conceded and directly knelt in front of Ye Fengqing.
Had Su Qiangwei displayed anything other than this, Ma Ran would have suspected if she had been possessed by soone.
With Su Qiangwei leading the way, the others at the scene began whispering among themselves.
"Is this person called Tatake? Wasn’t he just arrogant and brazen? How co he turned docile now?"
"Foreigners are like this, bullying the weak and fearing the strong."
"Fortunately, Brother Ran invited this Lord of the Red Lotus, or else this fellow would have put on quite a show! Acting all tough in foreign battles, but nowhere to be found when truly needed. I just can’t stand such people!"
"Well said!"
In the crowd, the [Light Speed Gentleman] William’s face flushed as he heard this, feeling rather awkward.
After all, he was the "soft" part being bullied in the "bullying the weak and fearing the strong."
At this mont, Tatake, at the bottom of the disdain chain, completely ignored the crowd’s discussions, keeping his head down, obediently kneeling in front of Ye Fengqing, hurriedly explaining: "Lord Honglian, I never intended to defy you, I foolishly thought you had deeper anings in sending us here, so that’s why I acted in such a misleading way."
"To earn your forgiveness, I’m willing to face more punishnt!"
No matter how others view Tatake as a shaless character, at least his words linked his previous actions with his current reactions, providing a seemingly reasonable explanation.
Sly Tatake, eager to flatter Ye Fengqing, mistakenly thinking he could fathom his intentions, unwittingly stumbled upon pitfall.
Now labeled as "flattering sycophant" and "contemptible villain" in people’s eyes, Tatake at this point had no interest in what others thought, all his focus was on appeasing the [Lord of the Red Lotus].
These weaklings...
If not for Ma Ran and others protecting them, he alone could kill them all, why should he care about their opinions?
Hearing the discussions and feeling the disdainful gazes, Tatake didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
When in Guangyu Academy, the [Lord of the Red Lotus] clearly wore a false amiable mask, making these people think she was easy-going, but actually...
Despite having limited interactions with this woman, Tatake and his six fellow brothers in adversity had reached a consensus — the Lord of the Red Lotus, Ye Fengqing, is a monstrous terror to the ultimate degree, an embodint of cruel wickedness, whoever defies her would face dual punishnt on both soul and body!
As for the specifics of the punishnt...
Tatake suddenly shivered, feeling a chill rush up his tailbone to the crown of his head, breaking out in cold sweat, his pupils slightly dilating, his mind montarily blank.
This was the consequence after he had already endured a [Red Lotus Punishnt], requesting his good brother Arnold to use magic to erase his own mory.
He had no regrets.
Because most of the other unlucky fellows in the sa situation chose the sa "healing thod."
Although he lost that crucial segnt of mory, Tatake still vaguely rembered his own evaluation of that blank mory.
"Never ever attempt to retrieve these mories! If I do, I will completely go insane! I will die horribly! Even my soul will be extinguished! No one in the entire cosmos could save !"
Whenever curiosity got the better of Tatake, attempting to use arcane ans to trace back to that mory, his own voice would erupt in his ears as if amplified a hundred tis, wildly roiling in fury.
It was as if soone was yelling into a gaphone inside his brain, infinitely looping.
More ridiculously...
Three inscriptions were embedded into the voice: "Vibration", "Pain", and "Slicing Spirit".
The power of these inscriptions complented each other, supported by his life force and arcane energy, solidified in his true spirit for eternity.
If Tatake stubbornly insisted on retrieving that punished mory...
The power of the three major inscriptions would instantly erupt with all might, scattering his soul completely.
And all of these were precisely the "mory trap" set up by Tatake himself.
