Chapter 118: 118

Chapter 118 A Short Struggle

Xiang Ning’s thunderous strike shook the audience, sending them into an existential crisis. Who said that his team had only won because of Li Zimo and his other teammates? Who said Xiang Ning was a fake, that he might seem strong but was actually a weak part-time student? Look at his speed! Who here could beat that? This time, they had truly been shocked. 

Xiang Ning ignored the still-shrieking Tian Zhong. It was already merciful of him to not strike Tian Zhong’s crotch. When he looked up, he realized that all of his cute little classmates, who used to give him Fury Points, were staring with fear in their eyes and he instinctively realized he had made a mistake. He had revealed too much of his abilities, which far exceeded their imaginations. No, he must do something as a cover-up. 

Fang Rou jogged over to Xiang Ning, horrified. “Xiang Ning, are you alright? You’re injured!” 

Xiang Ning looked at Fang Rou, who was even more immersed in his act than he was, stunned for a second. Then she blinked and he immediately snapped back to his senses, resuming their choreography. He quickly clutched his chest, his knees giving out as he half-knelt on the ground. “I’m… I’m fine. I must’ve exerted myself too much, and I was shot a few times… I’ll be fine in a while.”

“I… I think you should stop fighting. You’ve already beaten two people,” Fang Rou said with great concern. 

“But….” 

As Xiang Ning hesitated, Zhang Tao clenched his teeth and took a step forward. “I’m Zhang Tao, tier one, seven-star martial artist. Let’s fight!” All eyes fell on him, making him anxious. But he couldn’t help but rush forward when Xiang Ning was in such a weak state. 

Xiang Ning’s eyes darted at him and scoffed, “You? As I said, I don’t want to fight anyone weaker than the guy I just beat. He’s a tier-one, eight-star martial artist.” 

“Yeah, tier one, seven-star? Get the hell out!” Li Zimo hurriedly shooed, unable to tell that Fang Rou and Xiang Ning were only acting. He thought Xiang Ning was injured and shouldn’t fight anymore. 

Sensing Zimo’s panic, Feng Yi coldly chuckled, “Hey, wasn’t he pretty powerful just now? It’s only been two rounds and he’s already done? He was the one who challenged us, is he scared now?” 

The crowd agreed. “Yeah, Zhang Tao’s a tier one, seven-star martial artist, why can’t he challenge you? Are you looking down on us?” 

“Hmph, I think Xiang Ning must have eaten some pill that gave him temporary explosive strength. How else could a useless part-time student beat both Kuang Yong and Tian Zhong? Especially Tian Zhong. Without the pill, how could the bastard dodge all those bullets?!” Feng Yi shot Xiang Ning an evil glare. 

“How shameless can you be? Has anyone seen him consume anything since he arrived? And the pill you mentioned costs thirty thousand dollars, why would he buy such a thing?” Li Zimo coldly stared at the crowd. 

“Hmph, not him but can’t you guys do it for him? Young master Li, I believe it’s no trouble for you to buy one, is it?” Feng Yi chuckled. 

Li Zimo couldn’t bear such an insult and yelled, “Feng Yi, don’t think you can say whatever you want just because you’re from the Feng family! You should think of the consequences!” 

Feng Yi bit her lip, her glare vicious. “What, now I can’t say anything? Seeing how agitated you are, something must be up!” 

“Do you think he really took some pill to strengthen himself?” 

“It sure seems like it, or how would he be able to achieve such speed?” 

“Yeah! He dodged so many bullets, too. He must’ve done something shady!” 

Surveying the increasingly enthusiastic crowd, Xiang Ning smirked. It was working. Delighted, he struggled to get off the ground, his face pale. Weakly, he said, “Fine, I accept your challenge!” 

“I apologize in advance then!” With a roar, Zhang Tao hurled a lance across a distance of two men, aimed directly at Xiang Ning’s torso. 

“That’s the Ultimate Shadow Attack!” 

“But that’s a tier three skill. Even if it’s used by just a tier one, seven-star martial artist, it is enough to skewer a tier one, nine-star beast!” 

“I didn’t know Zhang Tao had this up his sleeve, looks like he’s been hiding his capabilities!” 

Xiang Ning almost yawned. Every weakness was revealed by his Keen Observation ability and nothing piqued his interest. He was confident he could defeat Zhang Tao with ten different methods. But for the sake of the drama, he chose to get hit.

Xiang Ning was irritated. He had let them watch him get hit by the lance, and when he saw the measly thirty points, he almost rushed forward to knock Zhang Tao out. 

“Ah. Oh. Ugh. You’re strong. You’re so strong,” Xiang Ning dramatically gasped, unable to motivate himself to act anymore. But the crowd must have been drunk on something, for when they saw Zhang Tao in the lead, they hollered and cheered. They wrote Xiang Ning’s flat tone off as him being weakened. 

Fang Rou was no longer interested in watching. Sure, he could act, but what was he doing? He was playing Zhang Tao like a kid teasing a monkey. Zhang Tao was even straining himself to fight, too. 

Seeing his chance, Xiang Ning made a face that said he wanted to end it once and for all, then struck Zhang Tao down in one strike. It was the same weapon, same move, and his opponent collapsed in the same manner. 

“What the hell happened? Can someone tell me?” 

The students refused to believe that Zhang Tao could lose when he had the upper hand. 

“How could he lose!” 

“That’s a pity!” 

“Yeah, it’s a pity! Look at Xiang Ning, he’s about to collapse. That must’ve been his last outburst!” 

Xiang Ning, who was acting as always, weakly staggered, his footsteps shaky as if he really was about to collapse. “Heh... hehehe, what an imbecile. Looks like I don’t need to stay any longer. You’re all useless.”

“Motherfucker, you think you can leave just like that?” 

“Stay where you are! Who did you just call an imbecile?!” 

Xiang Ning looked at them, his lips slightly curved upwards as he patronizingly laughed, “I’m sorry, I wasn’t speaking to one person. Let me clarify: every single one of you are imbeciles. What happened to the gusto you had when you bullied my sister?”

“Fuck! I can’t stand this any longer! I’m Fu Yue, tier one, eight-star martial artist here to teach you a lesson!” 

Five moves later, Fu Yue collapsed. 

“Any other idiots who’d like to fight?” 

“Let me….”

Three moves later, defeat. 

After the eighth person was knocked unconscious, the crowd noticed that something was wrong. Wasn’t Xiang Ning about to collapse? How was he still knocking people down in seconds? 

Zhang Tao, who had gotten back on his feet, yelled with a reddened face, “Fuck! You’re just playing us! Do you know the consequences of that?” Xiang Ning wasn’t behaving like a person on the verge of collapse. 

“Uh….” Xiang Ning realized that they had caught on, and, after some thought, struggled to say, “I can do one more. I’m about to collapse soon, will you believe me?” 

The crowd was speechless.
