Chapter 249 -249: Slamming the Professor!

Wang Hao had barely finished speaking when the entire hall erupted in shock!

Who could have expected that when the true history was uncovered, Liu Bei would be so drastically different from the image everyone held in their hearts?!

“Wang Hao, you!” Zhang Xingzhe pointed at Wang Hao, unable to finish his sentence.

“What’s the matter,” Wang Hao chuckled, “Professor Zhang, don’t be anxious. I haven’t finished yet.”

“A hero deals with people with love and wins them over with virtue. He is kind-hearted, yet capable of punishing evil and promoting good with thunderous actions. Although he is stronger than others, he is neither arrogant nor domineering and can be considered an exemplary figure among men. Liu Bei is said to be skilled in scheming and acting, but to say he truly deals with people with love, wins them over with virtue, and is kind-hearted, that’s questionable! A man who readily abandons his wife and children can hardly be called a true hero.”

“Then what is he? I actually think ‘heroic tyrant’ suits him better!”

“‘Heroic tyrant’ is another way to describe a hero. The ‘tyrant’ is a fierce bird, meaning brave and difficult to subdue, thus the term carries a negative connotation. ‘Heroic tyrant’ refers to fierce and outstanding individuals, often ambitious and aggressive. Hence, the meaning of ‘heroic tyrant’ is not as some might suggest—deceitful and untrustworthy—it refers to an uncontrollable hero.”

“Having said this, I believe everyone has understood. Liu Bei had aligned himself with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and even Lv Bu! He had wept over Jingzhou and abandoned his family, but was he ever subdued? No! Even when he had only one soldier left, escaping the world with Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, he never truly bowed his head. So, I don’t know about others, but in my view, Liu Bei was actually a ‘heroic tyrant’!”

When Wang Hao had finished, the room fell dead silent.

No one could utter a word, everyone was stunned by Wang Hao’s brilliant speech!

Nobody could believe that through layers of mystery, Wang Hao could delve so deeply into the history of the Three Kingdoms!

After completing all his analysis, Wang Hao leisurely took a sip of water and smiled, “Professor Zhang, are you satisfied with my explanation now?”

“Clap!” “Clap clap clap!” “Clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap clap!”

Suddenly, someone initiated a round of applause and in no time, the entire hall erupted with applause like thunder, everyone rising to give Wang Hao the most enthusiastic applause!

Today, they had heard the most spectacular speech of their lives!

Wang Hao’s views might not necessarily gain unanimous approval from everyone present or from academic experts, but his well-grounded arguments and composed demeanor, along with his impressive insights, commanded everyone’s deep admiration.

Brilliant!

Absolutely brilliant!

This was the only word that came to the minds of the audience at that moment!

“Teacher Wang Hao, your performance was spectacular!”

“Absolutely stunning, truly eye-opening today, it was worth coming!”

“Teacher Wang Hao is amazing! Well said!”

The cheers from the crowd were lavishly thrown at Wang Hao, while Zhang Xingzhe sat across from him with a dejected look on his face.

He had initiated today’s challenge, but who could have imagined he would be so thoroughly rebutted!

This was a face-smacking, powerfully delivered face-smacking!

Seeing himself overpowered by Wang Hao, a young man in his mid-twenties, controlling the entire room in an instant, the four guests could no longer sit still.

“This is complete nonsense, Liu Xuande could never be such a person!”

“Exactly, the young people these days really just spout nonsense, lacking any literary culture!”

“Debating the Three Kingdoms like this is simply blowing hot air, completely unreliable!”

A guest mustered courage, and Zhang Xingzhe, provoked to fury, suddenly stood up and exclaimed loudly, “This ignorant youngster is really twisting history with silver-tongued words. At first glance, Liu Bei might not seem like a hero, but it’s actually the opposite. Unlike Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Liu Bei was a person whose feelings did not show easily on his face. The books describe him as being able to bend and stretch. Liu Bei, Liu Xuande, in the history of the Three Kingdoms, has always been known for his benevolence and righteousness. We have a saying ‘the benevolent are invincible,’ which refers to great heroes like Liu Bei! But such a person, in the mouth of this ignorant youth, has become a crafty hero, truly lamentable. The historical knowledge of our people really needs improvement!”

Oh my god, you didn’t even know my name just a moment ago, and now you dare to jump out?

Watch me beat you until you can’t take care of yourself!

Wang Hao, grinning, said, “Stop dragging those useless things in, show us the real substance!”

“Exactly, show some real substance if you’re capable, what’s the point of just yelling here?”

“That’s right, you need to present something substantial to refute, else who can’t speak like that?”

Facing the whole audience, Professor Zhang Xingzhe was so angry his teeth were almost grinding, and he said, “Why did Cao Cao call Liu Bei a hero? There is a reason behind this, let’s discuss. First, it was Cao Cao being courteous to Liu Bei. Look at what this so-called vegetable-gardening Liu Huangqin was trying to achieve, to test him, giving away the hat of a hero to see his reaction. Secondly, Liu Bei was a man with great ambitions. I don’t know what he was thinking regarding the rescue of the Han Dynasty, but the slogan of reviving the Han Dynasty was definitely on his lips, and he was also fond of showing off. Whenever Liu Bei was mentioned, everyone would think he was the most loyal official. Remember, when Cao Cao took them hunting, Guan Yu wanted to kill Cao Cao, Liu Bei quickly stopped him. In Liu Bei’s words, it was ‘to avoid damaging the utensils while trying to catch a rat,’ but he knew Cao Cao could not be killed, if he acted, he might have exposed his own intentions. See, this explains that Liu Bei had extraordinary qualities, right?”

You think you can fight me with that nonsense?

Wang Hao leisurely replied, “Life is like a drama, it all depends on acting skills. It seems you deeply agree with my statement that Liu Bei could win an Oscar for Best Actor. I’d like to thank you for that! You also mentioned Liu Bei liked to show off, when we usually talk about someone loving to show off, what do we think of? It means the person is too pretentious, in a bad way just a hypocrite…”

“Exactly, loving to show off is not really a positive image, it means just a hypocrite!”

“That’s right, saying they support the Han Dynasty but dreaming of becoming the Emperor themselves!”

Wang Hao’s words again slapped Professor Zhang Xingzhe’s face, infuriating him—

Zhang Xingzhe: “You brats just know how to argue with your tongue, I won’t stoop to your level!”

With that, he sat down, and another guest couldn’t hold back any longer!

Li Xinghan: “Liu Bei was indeed remarkable. When Tao Qian in Xuzhou was besieged, Cao Cao came to attack to avenge his father, but none of the lords came to the rescue. Only Liu Bei led Guan and Zhang along with a little over a thousand of his troops from Tian Kai to the rescue, plus a part of Gongsun Zan’s troops, which were hardly a match for Cao Cao’s massive army. Yet Liu Bei dared to strike the stone with eggs, an act of rare courage.”

Wang Hao, smiling broadly, responded: “Thanks to this professor for proving again the point that they knew each other from childhood—otherwise, with Cao Cao’s vast army and generals at that time, how could he not finish them?”

Audience laughed loudly: “No fault in that statement!”

Professor Zhao Qiming: “Liu Bei was not weak, though very benevolent, he was spirited. Historical records mention him whipping the imperial commissioner, and it wasn’t what Zhang Fei did, but Liu Bei himself. You can imagine his inner irritation and fury at the moment.”

Wang Hao continued to counter: “That’s not really the point we are discussing, thank you!”

Professor Zhao Qiming: “You…%%%￥#”

Finally, the guest Niu Zhancai spoke up: “Alright, let me say something practical. I’ve never believed Liu Bei only relied on acting skills to earn his Five Tiger Generals. During the Three Kingdoms period, aside from Lv Bu who was recognized as the greatest warrior, weren’t Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Ma Chao all heroes who could hold their ground? Zhao Yun even killed scores of Cao Cao’s favorite generals in the battle at Changban Slope; could such a person really be won over just by acting? And please don’t tell me all the things Zhao Yun did were false, I would laugh at you.”

This question was a good one, lifting the audience’s hearts again.

Ah, Zhao Yun, definitely a peerless warrior in the people’s hearts!

Wang Hao and Wang Ritian: “Yes, Professor Niu hit the nail on the head—almost everything about Zhao Yun is true, I certainly agree with that. But, Professor, regarding Zhao Yun’s origins and background, Liu Bei actually never truly valued him. When Liu Bei praised Zhao Yun saying, ‘Zilong is all courage!’ he didn’t grant him any official rank. The title ‘General Hu Wei’ was actually just a nickname the troops gave to Zhao Yun, not until after Liu Bei’s death did Zhao Yun truly gain significant recognition. Surely that’s correct, right?”

Professor Niu Zhancai: “This…”

Yet another professor rendered speechless!

You little punk, trying to fight me!

Backstage, Liu Qisheng, watching the heated atmosphere, slapped his thigh forcefully: “Well done! Just push back like that! With this show, the ratings definitely won’t be bad!”
