Wang Hao had just parked the Mechanical Giant Wolf when Principal Zhong Li came over with a pained expression.

The higher-ups have ordered strict punishment against you—if it weren't for your good performance, they wouldn't have let you off with just compensating for the Grey Dragon Ship."
"You mean to say that the Grey Dragon Ship loss is being held against me?" Wang Hao pointed at himself innocently.
Principal Zhong Li nodded helplessly.
"You've got to be kidding!" Wang Hao looked incredulous and then huffed, "The contest rules were set by them, and the Grey Dragon Ship was given to Xi Rongxuan by them. Why blame it on me?"
