Chapter 84

Yang Xiong said: "That's right, and it's been that way since the first actual combat."

Zhao Chi said: "The luck factor was actually quite significant this time; I had the advantage in several stages."

Yang Xiong waved his hand.

"Don't say that, everyone is the same... I mean Zhou Lue, Yuan Zhao, Hua Hua Yuyin, and the others. Their races must have also had several stages where they had the advantage."

Lu Yi also nodded: "Right, being able to have the advantage in front of magical beasts is itself a kind of strength."

Yang Xiong said in surprise: "Damn, Lu Yi, you really know how to talk; you're worthy of being the class monitor."

Lu Yi smiled and shook his head.

"What does that have to do with me being the class monitor? These are all things Instructor Li always says."

Yang Xiong said: "Oh... regardless, our class battles and grade battles are stable from now on, and we won't be afraid of fighting other schools!"

Speaking of this, everyone was silent for a moment.

Lu Yi said: "Let's not think about such things for now. Drawing lots doesn't necessarily mean we'll draw our class, and fighting other schools isn't a certain death sentence. We can all get quite a few credits this time; let's go exchange them in a while."

The auditorium was bustling.

The students were chatting messily.

Zhao Chi was surrounded, and the students were all expressing their surprise and admiration.

"Move aside!"

A cold voice came out.

The surrounding students looked back and saw it was Cao Feng, so they consciously cleared a path.

Behind Cao Feng followed Zheng He, Kong Xiang, Shi Juan, and Li Ke.

They looked aggressive.

Yang Xiong reached out to block them: "What are you doing? This is inside the academy; do you dare to be presumptuous?"

Cao Feng snorted: "Damn it, I’m a man of my word. Yang Xiong, you’re not qualified to talk to me; I’m here to find Zhao Chi."

Yang Xiong lowered his hand: "Oh, Cao Feng, you know how to be a man of your word? Isn't it because you signed an agreement? Do you dare not to be?"

"Get lost." Cao Feng glared at him, then said to Zhao Chi: "You’re badass, damn it, you’re actually first. Here, take my stuff, be careful not to choke to death!"

Cao Feng reached out.

In his hand was a folded piece of paper.

It looked like a piece of draft paper, but this was the "Race Improvement Book."

Zhao Chi smiled: "Not bad, Cao Feng. Based on your usual style, you would definitely drag it out and find a way to break the agreement. Not bad today."

Zhao Chi received it into his system space.

Cao Feng snorted: "When have I ever broken an agreement? Those verbal agreements don't count; what's there to fulfill in a verbal agreement?"

Zhao Chi smiled: "It seems that betting with you really requires signing an agreement. You paid the tax for this improvement book, right?"

Cao Feng’s expression sank.

"I just finished fighting too; where would I have the time to pay taxes? Just wait; I’ll go to the exchange to pay the tax in a while."

Yang Xiong added: "After becoming an official lord in a while, you can pay taxes remotely."

Cao Feng cursed: "I know, damn it, do I need you to nag?"

At this moment, another group of people walked over.

"Move aside, move aside."

"Hurry up, move!"

"Don't block the way!"

Several people turned to look.

"Damn!" Cao Feng cursed under his breath and turned to leave.

His few followers all withdrew as well.

They left in a hurry.

But before they could think too much, a rather handsome student walked out of the crowd.

He was tall and dressed luxuriously.

One look and you could tell his family background was good.

He naturally exuded a very confident temperament.

Everyone knew him.

Class 10’s Yuan Zhao.

Yuan Zhao was followed by more than ten people, all of whom looked ill-intentioned.

Yang Xiong whispered: "Be careful, Yuan Zhao is not to be trifled with."

Zhao Chi nodded.

Yuan Zhao laughed: "Yang Xiong, I heard what you said, but I’m not here to pick a fight; don't have too much prejudice against me."

Yang Xiong smiled.

But the few people behind Yuan Zhao all stared at Yang Xiong.

Yuan Zhao continued: "Duan Yun, you’re 39th this time, which is quite impressive. You’re much stronger than in the mock combat before; it seems you’re the actual combat type."

Duan Yun said: "Thank you for the recognition."

Yuan Zhao nodded and turned to look at Lu Yi.

He smiled very gently: "Lu Yi, your actual combat isn't as good as your theory, but it doesn't matter. With a good theoretical foundation, your potential will be great; you definitely have a chance to enter the top 20."

Lu Yi smiled: "I wouldn't dare to hope for that, but you’re right. My actual combat is indeed not good; my judgment in combat needs to be improved."

Yuan Zhao smiled: "We can spar more when we have time. You can come to my territory; I have a specialized training ground there that can increase training experience."

Lu Yi thanked him: "Mm, I’ll definitely go take a look when I have time later. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

Finally, Yuan Zhao looked at Zhao Chi.

"Zhao Chi, I heard you made a bet with Cao Feng? Did he go back on his word? I can help you ask him for the bet."

Zhao Chi shook his head: "No need, Cao Feng has already fulfilled his bet. Thank you."

Yuan Zhao smiled: "Why did Cao Feng change his nature this time? He’s the representative of being untrustworthy; I’ve disciplined him several times. Let’s not talk about him; you’re first this time. Congratulations."

Yuan Zhao extended his hand in a friendly manner.

Zhao Chi shook it.

Soon, Yuan Zhao let go and said: "Zhao Chi, how did you fight at the end? Those slimes’ recovery abilities were too strong; they simply couldn't be killed. By the end, my soldiers’ stamina and morale were all very low."

Zhao Chi spread his hands: "I fought very hard here too. Look at my hair, it’s all covered in gel. I also couldn't kill the slimes at all, and in the end, I relied on willpower to fight hard."

Yuan Zhao smiled: "Of course, it must rely on willpower. Your own losses weren't too great, right? I lost quite a few subordinates, which is very heartbreaking."

Zhao Chi said: "It’s okay, the losses were within a range I could withstand."

Yuan Zhao nodded.

"That’s good. The monthly exams later don't matter. But when the year-end test comes, it will be very severe. I hope we can cooperate well then."

Zhao Chi said: "I understand. Let’s work together then."

"Mm, keep it up."

Yuan Zhao extended his hand again.

Zhao Chi shook it again.

Yuan Zhao suddenly smiled: "Oh, Hua Hua Yuyin is coming over. You guys can chat; see you later."

"Alright, see you."

Yuan Zhao smiled and said again: "Lu Yi, Duan Yun, Yang Xiong, let’s chat when we have time!"

The three of them also said goodbye to him.

After Yuan Zhao and his ten-plus followers left, another female student indeed came over.

She was tall and looked quite good.

She wasn't the soft and beautiful type like Lu Yi, but leaned more toward the athletic type.

Like someone who often went to the gym or yoga studio, and often ran or swam for exercise.

But she was definitely not a muscular woman.

Hua Hua Yuyin walked over alone, and before she even spoke, the surrounding students cleared a path for her.

Dozens of gazes fell upon her.
