Pei Ji and Lin Baoyu exchanged glances before silently approaching Lu Qingyu with a fist-clasped bow.
Pei Ji said, "I thank Dean Lu Qingyu for lending a hand. Otherwise, the Sword Art Academy would have truly suffered shame today."

Pei Ji and Lin Baoyu exchanged looks, both wearing wry smiles.
Just before Pei Ji was about to take action, Lin Baoyu abruptly intervened, displaying a formidable presence that forcefully manifested the vigor of the Sword Art Academy.
Otherwise, today's infighting within the Sword Art Academy would have certainly become a source of criticism from the other nine courtyards of the Miracle Ridge.
