The teachers and students from both academies were stunned by this scene.
They never expected that this captain named Zhao Chen would actually dare to take action.
But thinking back to what happened on that planet, this was the ruthless character who dared to crush Zerg with his bare hands!
The male student struggled in pain, but the hand pressing down on his head felt as heavy as a thousand pounds. No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn't break free.
Zhao Chen stared coldly at this male student. In truth, he had long anticipated that among these students, there would definitely be arrogant and domineering individuals, especially those from the Tianyao Noble Starship Military Academy who were born with silver spoons in their mouths.
But he never expected that, just after arriving, he would hear this guy cursing his female crew members.
How dare you curse my woman?
"You... you... let go... don't... don't... think that just because you saved... me... I... I won't dare... to touch you...
I... I am the son of a Count!" the male student still arrogantly shouted.
Zhao Chen released his hand and stood up.
Only then could the male student catch his breath. He immediately tried to get up and raise his hand, intending to angrily rebuke this rude man.
The next second, his head once again made intimate contact with the floor.
This time, Zhao Chen directly stepped on his skull with his foot.
"Count what? I didn't hear clearly?"
After stepping on him, Zhao Chen withdrew his foot.
"You bastard... I'll..."
"Count... what? My ears aren't working well. Say it again." Zhao Chen stepped on him once more, then withdrew his foot again.
"I'll make you pay..."
"Son? What? You're a grandson? I don't have a grandson like you. Don't go around claiming relatives."
Zhao Chen stepped on him again.
The teachers and students from both academies nearby were dumbfounded. Zhao Chen stepped on him again and again, each time releasing his foot only to step down once more.
In the end, the male student didn't even dare to lift his head again.
And because Zhao Chen's face carried a terrifying ferocity—perhaps due to his recent experience killing Zerg—the intent to kill around him was still very strong.
The teachers and students from both academies didn't dare to approach, momentarily forgetting to intervene.
Zhao Wan'er, Senior Su Lan, and the others were stunned by the overwhelmingly domineering man before them, unable to react for a moment.
Zhao Wan'er realized that this time, upon seeing him again, her brother seemed even more dazzlingly charismatic.
"Don't... don't... step on me... anymore... I... I... was... wrong..."
The male student now pleaded in terror, looking at the man before him as if he were more frightening than the Zerg.
Zhao Chen's icy gaze fixed on the male student, whose face was already a bloody mess from being stepped on. "This is my starship. If I hear another word that displeases me,
I won't mind turning this starship around and throwing you to the Zerg."
"Yes... yes... I was wrong..." The male student kept pleading for mercy. This man was too terrifying.
At that moment, Teacher Qin hurried over. Judging by her drowsy, bleary-eyed appearance, she had apparently been asleep.
She hadn't closed her eyes during the previous days of battle and seemed utterly exhausted.
"What... what's going on here?" Teacher Qin looked at Zhao Chen's fierce expression, then at the student on the ground whose face was beyond recognition.
"Sister Qin, don't mind him. He brought this upon himself." Chu Xuan walked over, looking disdainfully at the male student on the ground.
She despised two types of people the most: those who abused their status to act arrogantly and commit wrongdoing, and those who bullied starship military personnel and crew members.
Unfortunately, this male student had violated both.
In Chu Xuan's eyes, the half-beast female crew members on Zhao Chen's starship were all highly dedicated, respectable crew warriors.
"But this person holds the title of Count... I'm worried it might affect Zhao Chen in the future..." Teacher Qin looked at Zhao Chen with concern. She also despised such students—beating him was one thing, but she feared the repercussions for Zhao Chen.
This surprised Zhao Chen, leaving him with a rather favorable impression of this Teacher Qin.
"Count? Is a Count more powerful than our Chu Family?" Chu Xuan chuckled lightly.
"The Chu Family..." Teacher Qin was taken aback, then stared straight at Chu Xuan... Earlier, she had called her "Sister Qin"...
"You're Chu Xuan of the Chu Family!" Teacher Qin suddenly exclaimed.
Her voice echoed throughout the hangar, startling the teachers and students from both academies. No one had expected the renowned young lady of the Chu Family to be aboard this starship, participating in the mission to rescue them.
"Sister Qin didn't recognize me earlier," Chu Xuan said affectionately, holding Teacher Qin's hand.
Teacher Qin smiled and gestured, "The last time I saw you was ten years ago. You were only this tall back then.
I never imagined ten years would pass, and you'd grow into such a fine young lady; I truly didn't recognize you."
"Zhao Chen, you might not know this. Teacher Qin is the daughter of Dean Qin from your North Star Starship Military Academy. Strictly speaking, I should call her Aunt Qin, but whenever I did, she'd get upset, saying I made her sound old," Chu Xuan explained to Zhao Chen.
Zhao Chen looked at Teacher Qin in surprise. This elegant and graceful female teacher was actually the daughter of that Dean Qin?
"Dean Qin was deeply engrossed in research during his youth, so he had a daughter later in life," Chu Xuan explained, noticing Zhao Chen's astonishment.
So that was the reason.
"Teacher Qin, please wait a moment. I still have some unfinished business to attend to," Zhao Chen said politely to Teacher Qin before turning his gaze to the male student still lying on the ground.
The moment he felt Zhao Chen's eyes on him, the male student trembled all over, fearing another kick.
"My starship deck does not tolerate filth. Lick up all your disgusting blood and anything else you've left behind.
If I see even a single drop remaining, you know what will happen," Zhao Chen said coldly.
Due to the earlier incident, a pool of the male student's blood and the saliva he had spat earlier now stained the floor.
The male student was stunned. Lick it clean?
How could he, the son of a Count, preserve his dignity like this?
But recalling this unreasonable and terrifying individual before him, he could only repeatedly agree and begin slowly licking up the blood he had spat onto the floor.
However, with wounds on his face, every time he licked a little, more would drip down, as if he could never finish.
Seeing Zhao Chen humiliate this student from the Tianyao Noble Starship Military Academy so severely, Teacher Qin felt a pang of worry.
But noticing Chu Xuan's calm expression beside her, she relaxed slightly.
Given the situation, it seemed Chu Xuan was backing Zhao Chen. If that were the case, a mere Count was indeed nothing to fear.
"Listen carefully, on this Starship, my words are command. Anyone who dares to disobey my orders—
don't worry about who they are.
Even if the Heavenly King himself came, he'd have to crawl on the ground before me!
If anyone dares to speak words that humiliate you, cut out their tongues." Zhao Chen looked at the hesitant Female Crew Member from earlier and spoke sternly.
Though his words sounded like a reprimand,
the Half-Beast Female Starship Crew felt warmth in her heart. This was the commander standing up for them, the Half-Beast Female Starship Crew, even at the risk of offending those nobles.
"Yes, sir!" The Half-Beast Female Starship Crew straightened her posture and responded.
Zhao Chen's cold gaze swept over the teachers and students from both academies in the Hangar. At this moment, not a single one of them dared to speak.
