I will be making a public announcement and the students will be whipped in public. We will let the world see that order still exist in the Great Xia Cultural Research Academy. It is fine to compete among ourselves. But those who cross the line will be punished severely."   0

Di Feng, Huang Qifeng, and the other students would be subjected to 100 whippings, a fine of 1,000 merit points,...0
