Chapter 307: The Storm in the Top 100 (2)
Su Yu gazed at Huang Qifeng for a while. He then smiled.
"Huang Qifeng, did you intentionally injure my senior sister?"
"Heh."
"I rarely lose my temper, but there is no need to hold back against someone like you." Su Yu's smile vanished again as he indifferently said, "Why put on an act here? You must have reached the Infinite Strength Realm long ago, right? You only insisted on challenging my senior sister to make trouble for our faction. If you dare to do so, why don't you have the courage to own up to it?
"Even when you're in front of so many people, you're still trying to hide behind a mask, acting like a dirty rat. The more I look at you, the less respect I have for you. Is this all you amount to after staying in the academy for five years? It's fine if you're weak. Perhaps you have been restricted by your talent or resources. But you clearly have the strength to enter the top 50 yet you insist on pretending to be weak and bully weaklings. You make me sick."
Su Yu sneered.
Huang Qifeng's eyes turned cold as he said, "Are you saying that you are refusing the private spar?"
"Spar?" Su Yu calmly said, "I will only dirty my hands sparring with a scoundrel like you."
He then looked at the referee and asked, "Teacher, is there an option where I can cripple him without taking any responsibility for it?"
The moment he said those words, a clamor erupted among the surrounding students.
"Junior Brother Su Yu, don't be rash!"
Some of the girls couldn't keep watching anymore. How could Su Yu allow Huang Qifeng to provoke him? That Huang Qifeng was a shameless snake!
During Huang Qifeng's fight with Wu Jia, a lot of people were present. Thus, a lot of girls loathed him for how cruel he was during the fight. And now, he was provoking Su Yu into a fight. He was clearly harboring evil intentions.
Su Yu smiled and cupped his fists at the crowd, "Thank you for the reminder, friends. But I can't forget what he did to my senior sister. If it had only been a regular defeat, it's fine. We are not sore losers. But some people insist on using these shameless tricks against my senior sister. That is truly disgusting. I honestly don't consider such a person...a person. Someone like that is more of an animal for me."
"Well said!"
Huang Qifeng looked at the crowd coldly.
Among the crowd, Wu Lan raised her head and arrogantly said, "What are you looking at? It was me! Slimy little snake! I hate people like you the most! If you are really so strong, go and challenge an expert. Only a piece of trash like you would spend your time bullying the weak!"
Wu Lan did not fear him.
This was how she had always been. She looked down on weaklings, and she only had her eyes on the strong. Of course, she ended up having her face slapped a lot of times, but she was the kind of person who would only be happy with defeating the strong, not the weak.
Huang Qifeng's eyes were frosty.
Wu Lan.
A member of the Wu Family. He didn't dare to say anything to her.
Meanwhile, the referee seemed more than happy to escalate the matter. He smiled happily and said, "Crippling him without taking any responsibility? Easy! Enter the top 80 and challenge him. Sign a release of liability before the fight. That way, none of you need to take any responsibility after crippling the other. Of course, a release of liability is quite troublesome as it needs your teachers to sign it for you. This rule is put in place to prevent kids like you from pushing things too far."
The referee smiled and continued, "There is another option. Both parties can also agree to fight a match where no party is allowed to surrender. I won't get involved unless one of you is on the verge of losing your life."
He assumed a toying tone as he said, "Since both of you hate each other so much, you should pick this option. Don't worry. You won't die. And it is also much simpler than the first option."
This fellow was clearly not afraid of escalating the matter. At this moment, a few people appeared in the air.
One of them roared, "Zhao Ming! What nonsense are you saying? Who gave you the permission to instigate students to fight each other to death?"
The referee called Zhao Ming was completely unbothered. He smiled, "What are you saying? Did I instigate them to do anything? They want to fight. Isn't this encouraged by the academy? Why should I stop them? I am only here to earn some pocket money. Am I not allowed to even speak anymore?"
They ignored him. One of them landed on the ground and looked at Su Yu. This person was quite young. He looked to be around 30 years old. He had a grave and stern expression.
He berated Su Yu, "Just focus on your challenge. What's the point of letting your emotions dictate your actions?"
He then looked at Huang Qifeng and coldly said, "Those ranked higher are not allowed to challenge those ranked lower. Don't you know the rules?"
Huang Qifeng frowned and said, "We are both top 100 students. As long as Su Yu agrees to the fight, it is not against the rule for us to fight. Also, I am asking for a private spar, not a challenge match."
The man ignored Huang Qifeng and looked at Su Yu, "Continue the challenge matches. Don't drag unrelated affairs into the challenge."
Su Yu did not know who this person was, but he could feel this person's goodwill. But he had been wanting to deal with Huang Qifeng for quite a while. Wasn't this his goal all along? Wasn't this the reason he had come here after cultivating the new technique?
He inhaled deeply and said, "Thank you, Teacher. But...I am someone who remembers gratitude and grudges. The single character faction has been attacking us relentlessly. There is no need for a private spar. I disdain sparring with someone like this. I want to challenge him. Since I still can't challenge him now, then I'll challenge someone at the 81st place and below. If I win, I'll be able to challenge him, right?"
He then loudly asked, "Is Senior Brother Liu He here? During the start of semester, you said that you would be waiting for me in the Top 100 Ranking. Today, I'm here. Do you dare to accept my challenge?"
"Liu He!"
Many people exclaimed in alarm. Had Su Yu gone mad from anger? He was going to challenge Liu He before challenging Huang Qifeng?
Liu He was ranked 84th in the ranking. When the semester started, he was still in the 87th place. His position had improved. It was unknown if he had challenged his way up or his position had simply increased because some older students had left the ranking.
Huang Qifeng smiled.
He had a mocking look on his face as he said, "Interesting. You are very confident. Su Yu, you're really an interesting person. I'll be paying attention to you. I'll be waiting for you to defeat Liu He before challenging me. If you lose...then you're really a piece of trash unqualified to challenge me."
Su Yu indifferently replied, "Piece of trash? A student of a Mountainsea. A student who has been in the academy for five years. Everyone knows who the actual piece of trash is here. Don't you know that yourself? There are so many senior brothers and sisters present. Just ask them. Which of them wouldn't be stronger than you if they have a Mountainsea as a teacher? What a joke. After exhausting countless resources and enjoying the guidance of a Mountainsea for five years, this is all you amount to...hehe. If I were you, I'll just cripple my own cultivation. This is too embarrassing."
Su Yu pointed at Yang Sha and said, "Senior Brother Yang Sha is only the student of a Skysoar. Even someone like him knows shame upon failing to enter the top 100. Meanwhile, you're the final student of a Mountainsea who has been in the academy for five years. With your cultivation, you're calling me a piece of trash? My teacher is only a Skysoar. I have only been in the academy for two months. I come from Nanyuan. Huang Qifeng, you're not only an animal, but you're also a fool. Do you even have a brain?"
Huang Qifeng's aura erupted, releasing the pressure of an Infinite Strength cultivator. The look in his eyes was incredibly cold. Su Yu had clearly hit a sore spot.
Su Yu smiled indifferently and continued speaking calmly, "The purpose of studying is to cultivate our mind. You can't wage a war of words. You can't use your brain. Are you...even qualified to be a cultural researcher? I am embarrassed to call you my peer. Your existence is an insult to all cultural researchers in existence.
"If it wasn't for the sake of avenging my senior sister, I wouldn't have wasted my time entertaining a barking dog like you. After all, how would a human waste his time bickering with a dog?"
"Well said!"
Once again, someone in the crowd praised. Some of the people still didn't dare to say anything, but they still felt incredibly good to hear what Su Yu said.
Huang Qifeng had a Mountainsea. If they had Mountainsea teachers as well, they would definitely be much stronger than him after five years in the academy. That was what everyone would think. Everyone was confident that with the same teacher and same amount of resources, they would do better.
Huang Qifeng had always been an arrogant person. Thus, Su Yu's words caused him to be flustered and exasperated. Standing beside the calm and indifferent Su Yu, he really did look like a mad dog.
The crowd couldn't help but to agree with Su Yu. Someone like that was unworthy of being a cultural researcher. If they were given what Huang Qifeng had, they would have reached the top 10 long ago or even the Skysoar Realm!
Once again, Huang Qifeng looked at the crowd coldly. Previously, it was Wu Lan. Who was it this time?
Jia Mingzhen was the one who had shouted previously. When he saw Huang Qifeng looking at him, he arrogantly said, "What are you looking at? Your daddy isn't a top 100 student. What can you do? Are you going to beat me up? Just you wait. If you're still around after I enter the top 100, I'll kick your ass. Keep staring at me. Come on, stare at me. You'll regret it."
"..."
Huang Qifeng was on the verge of losing control.
He stared at Jia Mingzhen for a long while before leaving the stage. He walked toward Jia Mingzhen and gloomily said, "We'll wait and see."
He then turned to look at Su Yu, "It doesn't matter how good you are with your words. Is talking all you're good at? I'll be here waiting for you to defeat Liu He."
Liu He was not present, but someone had already gone to notify him of the challenge. Su Yu was in no rush. He smiled and ignored Huang Qifeng.
He left the ring as well and said, "I'll wait for Senior Brother Liu He to arrive. As for Huang Qifeng, can I trouble someone to call a healing teacher over? I'm afraid I might injure him too much and he couldn't get treatment in time. It won’t be good if I accidentally sever his path of cultivation, right? Sure, he might have wasted all the resources he had used for the past five years, but I am not a bad person."
Referee Zhao Ming smiled and said, "I'm good at healing. There is no need to call anymore. If anyone ends up crippled, come look for me. You only need to pay 50 merit points per treatment. My door is always open for business."
Su Yu said nothing. This referee was a shit-stirrer through and through. He wondered which faction this referee came from.
The incident had caused a sensation in the entire academy. Bai Feng's student was challenging Liu He to top 90 before challenging Huang Qifeng. The conflict between the multiple character faction and the single character faction had reached a boiling point.
Everyone Su Yu had challenged so far had been single character faction students.
Mental Tempering Garden.
Liu He walked out with an unsightly expression. Using him as a stepping stone? Su Yu should first look in the mirror and see if he was actually capable of doing so. He had only joined the academy for two months yet he was already so arrogant. Today would be the start of his fall from grace.
Right after Liu He left his villa, someone softly said, "Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Huang said that you better lose. He wants to personally cripple Su Yu."
Bang!
Liu He threw a punch at that person, sending him flying while coughing blood. "Scram! Who is Huang Qifeng to order me around? Su Yu is mine. Huang Qifeng is a piece of trash that has been in the academy for five years. He should know his place."
The messenger paled. He didn't dare to say anything. Nor did he dare to report this incident. He only scurried off in haste. Every single one of these geniuses were terrifyingly arrogant. He already knew he was going to suffer when he was given this task. And sure enough, he suffered. He told himself to avoid getting involved in matters like this in the future.
Liu He had a look of arrogance.
Huang Qifeng?
If it wasn't for the fact that Liu He's older brother had advised him to not worsen his relationship with them, he would have challenged that arrogant piece of trash long ago. As a piece of trash that couldn't enter the top 10 even after staying in the academy for five years, he was unworthy of even standing beside Liu He.
Even Su Yu was much more talented than Huang Qifeng. He had only entered the academy for two months. Even if he was going to end up defeated today, his performance was still enough to prove that Bai Feng wasn't blind.
"Bai Feng..."
Liu He snorted and adjusted his clothes before continuing forward.
Not far away, Liu Hong was rubbing his chin while looking at his little brother who was walking away furiously and sighed, "I guess it's time for me to accept an actually reliable student?"
Lin Yao was a fool.
Yang Sha was untalented.
As for Liu He...it was better to not mention him. His talent was decent, but he lacked a brain.
Liu Hong shook his head and vanished into thin air. He was also going to head to the ring and enjoy the show as well.
