Rising up in China university of little consequence (9)

'rising up' is the definition.
(mutinying is a kind of rising up)

'in china university of little consequence' is the wordplay.
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'china' becomes 'ming' (Chinese porcelain from the Ming dynasty).
'university' becomes 'u' (abbreviation for university).
'of little consequence' becomes 'tiny' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'u'+'tiny'='utiny'
'ming' placed around 'utiny' is 'MUTINYING'.
