Chapter 16: Defining Leadership

Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After Du Gang carried Mu Chuxue back to the boys’ dormitory, he handed her over to Wang Yixuan’s care.

At the same time, he found two empty rooms on the sixth floor for An Ya and the six young ladies.

“Du Gang, who are you to kick us out?”

“Yeah, this is our dormitory!”

Ma Haibin and his gang stood in the corridor and yelled loudly, which soon attracted the attention of the other students.

Upon seeing the other students gathering in the corridor, Ma Haibin and his gang became more hyped up and raised their voices, not caring whether or not this would attract the attention of more insects.

Du Gang calmly said: “I told everyone to go to the first floor and block the door, and only the six of you didn’t. We still remember it.”

Ma Haibin listened and had a guilty conscience. However, he stubbornly retorted: “Even so you can’t just kick us out. The insects are out there! This is murder!”

“Kick?”

Upon hearing his words, the crowd discussed among themselves, and from time to time, they looked at Du Gang with odd expressions, as if they were in dismay at how heartless he was.

Du Gang couldn’t be bothered with Ma Haibin putting up a straw man argument. Du Gang crossed his arms and coldly said: “I give you two choices: either you live in the lower floors or I’ll throw you out!”

“Du Gang, you can’t do that. You’re breaking the law! You’re committing a crime!”

Ma Haibin panicked but refuted in a stern voice.

Du Gang sneered and said indifferently: “On the count of three, I’ll make the decision for you!”

“One!”

Ma Haibin and his gang panicked. After seeing Du Gang remain unmoved, they turned to the others for help: “Guys, say something! We were indeed in the wrong to not go down with you, but we thought that there were enough people and joining you guys will only add to the chaos… In any case, this shouldn’t be punishable by death!”

Ma Haibin continued to put up a straw man argument, as if Du Gang making them live on the fifth floor was taking their lives.

Sure enough, a few students were persuaded by the talk and said: “Du Gang, forget it. They didn’t mean it…”

Before the students finished their sentence, Du Gang’s apathetic voice sounded again: “Whoever wants to accompany them to the fifth floor, you’re free to do so!”

In an instant, the others shut their mouths and didn’t dare to say another word.

“Two!”

Seeing that the others didn’t dare to speak up for them, Ma Haibin once again placed his hopes on Du Gang, begging for mercy: “Du Gang, we are classmates, aren’t we? There’s no need to go so far…”

He shifted his gaze to An Ya and the other young ladies, saying: “Teacher An, Du Gang is sending us to death just to vacate a room for you girls. It isn’t appropriate, is it?!”

As expected, the six young ladies who were quietly watching couldn’t stand it anymore. They spoke up one after another.

“Yeah, Du Gang, wouldn’t that be too much?”

“Yeah, Du Gang, you don’t need to chase them away just to give us the room. The sixth floor is so big, let them squeeze in with the rest…”

“Isn’t there only Ma Li and you in your room? There is still enough space for them…”

“Three!”

The moment Du Gang’s voice sounded yet again, he moved his feet. Ma Haibin and his gang were so terrified that they hurriedly scrambled towards the stairs and flew down the steps as if a motor was installed on their soles.

If this happened during peaceful times, Du Gang would have been submerged in their saliva.

But now, Du Gang was the strongest here. The most important thing was that he was truly cruel. There were so many girls in the girls’ dormitory, yet he insisted to not save them and completely ignored the student’s moral coercion.

Ma Haibin firmly believed that if he didn’t run away from Du Gang, the latter would throw him out the window to feed the insects.

After waiting for the six of them to run downstairs, Du Gang turned around and looked coldly at everyone else.

“I hope you are aware by now that this is the end of the world. Don’t even try bringing up your usual moral standards…

“Do you guys think that I have a better chance of surviving with you guys, or by myself? If you guys want to stay with me, then you have to listen to me!

“I hope you guys set yourselves straight. If this happens again, we’ll all go our separate ways!”

After speaking his mind, Du Gang pulled Ma Li and went straight back to his room.

After he left, the people in the building went speechless.

In the end, in groups of three or five, the students returned to the rooms that were farthest away from Du Gang’s.

On the other hand, An Ya and the five young ladies very tacitly went back to the same room.

Although An Ya thought that Du Gang was acting strangely at first, these two recent events had alarmed her a bit.

She couldn’t believe that Du Gang was so cold-blooded!

After entering the room, they looked at each other quietly. Mu Chuxue who was lying alone on the bed dubiously asked: “What just happened?”

Even though she was awake, her body was weak as she felt spiritless after casting that icicle.

After hesitating for a moment, Wang Yixuan told her everything in full detail.

At the same time, she also spoke about Du Gang saving the girls earlier.

After listening to her words, Mu Chuxue sneered: “I knew he’s such a person. Luckily I didn’t agree to follow him back then!”

“Not even a day has passed since the crisis, and he is already impatiently gathering power…”

Wang Yixuan sighed and shook her head, saying: “Don’t say that. We do need to rely on him to survive…”

Everyone else also seemed to agree. Although they were unhappy with Du Gang’s attitude toward them, they had to admit that he was right.

It was just that they couldn’t accept it. They were used to living in a society where everyone was equal and had freedom of speech. But now, it turned into a dictatorial situation.

In everyone’s mind, there was a burden that couldn’t be laid down.

Upon hearing their words, Mu Chuxue became indignant: “Who does he think he is? Some bigshot?”

“Girls, don’t worry. I also have supernatural power. When I feel better, I’ll bring you out of here safely!”

As soon as those words left her, the girls looked at her in disbelief.

Mu Chuxue proudly said: “Do you think I was saved by him? I awakened the ‘ice’ supernatural power and killed an insect myself…”

She subconsciously ignored the fact that she only had the power to cast one icicle and that she would have been bitten to death by other insects without Du Gang saving her.

And sure enough, when the girls heard her, they were all astonished.

“You girls have to keep this a secret. Meanwhile, wait for me to recover my strength…”

The group of girls instantly discussed in secret.

…

Compared to the seven girls who were conspiring, the atmosphere in other rooms was much heavier.

“What do you guys think of Du Gang’s words?”

It was uncertain who threw out this question, but a long time passed and still, no one answered.

Nobody knew what to say.

Should I acknowledge Du Gang’s leadership position?

The idea of equality among everyone had been instilled in them for a long time that they didn’t want to acknowledge him as a leader.

For a long time, one of them looked at the silent crowd, sighed, and turned around to leave.

Is there any other choice if we don’t accept his leadership?

After he left, everyone else left one after another. Everyone admitted that there was nothing more to discuss.
