Looking for a VenueIn secret, Xu Gong went out. When he got on the bus to Fu Qi, he looked up and still saw dark clouds hanging over the Nine Dragons Palace and many flying sword cultivators.Sight un...Chapter 475 Another Fight!

Hao Ren shook his head and smiled wryly, preparing to explain the situation to Lu Jilin and Lu Lili when someone else barged in through the classroom door.

"Senior," Xu Ke's face was beaming with a smile as he walked straight up to Hao Ren.

He pulled out five crisp hundred-dollar bills from his wallet and presented them to Hao Ren with both hands, "This is my membership fee; I just took it out today."

His smile was sincere, almost as if he were addressing a respected elder rather than an opponent.

Hao Ren put away the money but didn’t know what else to say in response.

Xu Ke then turned to look at Xie Yujia beside Hao Ren and said, "Thanks for directing me last time."

"Oh, no problem," Xie Yujia reflexively replied.

Lu Lili and Lu Jilin, sitting on Hao Ren's right side, noticed that Xu Ke was at the Rank Exchanger Intermediate level.

Ding-dong... The classroom bell rang.

"I’ll have to take up your time again another day," Xu Ke smiled brightly once more before swiftly exiting the classroom.

He spoke humbly and with sincerity, showing no trace of arrogance like what was rumored about Golden Dragon.

"He seems quite decent," said Xie Yujia as she watched Xu Ke's retreating back in the corridor.

Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia, "Be careful. Golden Dragon isn't as simple as you think."

Xu Ke displayed himself to be at Rank Exchanger Intermediate level, but this didn’t necessarily reflect his true power level. Furthermore, during the night's ‘friendly’ match-up, Xu Ke had completely relied on the might of his magical treasures without revealing any of his cultivation techniques.

On the contrary, he was always pressuring Hao Ren to use the Split Light Sword Shadow Technique and was even trying to provoke Hao Ren into using the Mystic Water Sword Art.

Knowing your enemy and knowing yourself will help you win a hundred battles. However, Xu Ke utilized his real identity, so Hao Ren couldn't directly confront him.

After two morning classes, accompanied by Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters, Hao Ren went to eat lunch in the canteen. Since Lingzhaos High School's ninth-grade was holding a baseline exam today, Zhao Ranzǐ wouldn’t be able to come over at noon.

"Brother Hao!"

It was now during the peak lunch hour; some members of Hao Ren’s Calligraphy Club were also eating in the canteen and approached him proactively upon seeing him, offering their seats.

Hao Ren's match with Xu Ke didn't actually land any hits on Xu Ke, so he couldn’t gauge Xu Ke’s true strength. However, Hao Ren established his authority among the young cultivators.

Especially with Hao Ren being a Tri-pole Inspector and having an open position for Assistant Inspector, it was quite appealing to these young cultivators.

If one could become Hao Ren's assistant inspector, they would have a huge advantage in the Dragon God Temple’s imperial examination. With powerful magic treasures and high-grade medicinal pills, there might even be a chance of becoming an official inspector.

Once someone became an official inspector at the Dragon God Temple, various resources would double their growth rate, and one could receive numerous opportunities for training. Even if they left the temple in the future, they would have the qualifications to sit as elders in their own dragon palaces.

The ordinary students in the cafeteria, holding trays, looked around aimlessly but couldn’t find a seat to sit at.

However, when Hao Ren casually walked into the dining area, the calligraphy club members scrambled to offer him seats.

This was the disparity…

The participants of this year's calligraphy club were all formidable students in their peers' eyes; either they came from prominent families or had exceptional intelligence. Their eagerness to give Hao Ren seats indicated that...

Hao Ren’s prestige far exceeded their expectations.

"Screw your basketball team, it thinks it's the best."

"Did you purposely pour water on me Are we supposed to be easy targets for your football team"

In the chaotic cafeteria, a few shouts of curses suddenly rang out.

Queue number six gradually carved out its own space in the crowded area.

"Who let you cut in line Get back to the end," Zhao Jiayan's voice thundered.

Rumble…

The crowd of diners suddenly stirred with commotion.

"Fighting! Fighting!" A few onlookers almost gleefully shouted.

Hao Ren rose from his seat and, through the sea of heads, saw Zhao Jiayan fighting with a tall and burly figure.

Although Zhao Jiayan wasn’t tall, he was still quite muscular. At that moment, red-faced, he fought fiercely and powerfully.

The other side grabbed Zhao Jiayan’s collar, attempting to slam him onto the ground, causing them both to crash into multiple tables in a chaotic dance of punches and kicks.

Hao Ren vaguely remembered this big guy; he was the captain of the school's football team. The two main teams at East Sea University were basketball and football.

The basketball team has been performing exceptionally well, securing national championships for several consecutive years. In contrast, the football team is doing poorly; they can't even beat other schools in Donghai City and are almost always at the bottom of their league.

Under the dazzling spotlight of the basketball team's success, the football team has become synonymous with incompetence. No one pays attention to their matches, especially not the pretty girls in school who would rather watch the basketball players train than attend a football game.

As such, the football team is quite resentful of the basketball team. However, previously led by Xie Wanjun, the football team dared not provoke them even if they muttered about it among themselves.

Hao Ren saw that the captain of the football team and Zhao Jiayin were fighting, with several other football players in the crowd. He knew that their match must have just ended, and while heading to the cafeteria for food, they had run into Zhao Jiayin alone and provoked him.

"Beat him up!" The football players raised their fists and cheered on their captain.

These football guys aren't good at competing but are proficient in smoking, drinking, and fighting. There were also some ill-tempered members in the basketball team, but each player was strong with a ball in hand, and under Xie Wanjun's strict management, they didn’t descend to such levels.

Boom boom boom

Hao Ren leaped up, stepping on three tables consecutively before rushing towards window number six.

He had initially planned to intervene and stop the fight, but seeing these football players cheering loudly made his temper flare.

"Beat him! This short little punk! Beat him!"

The dozen or so football players standing in the innermost circle of the crowd were blushing red as they shouted.

Zhou Liren and others, who had come to the cafeteria with Zhao Jiayin, immediately rushed over to attack them.

These football players were all seasoned fighters on the outside. Seeing Zhou Liren charging towards them, they welcomed it, rolling up their sleeves ready to engage in a fight.

The basketball team members are big and strong, often trained rigorously, so the football team dare not confront them head-on. However, Zhao Jiayin’s classmates aren’t afraid of these footballers at all.

To escalate it into a group brawl would make the situation difficult to resolve.

Slap slap slap slap slap...

A dozen loud slaps suddenly landed on the faces of these football players.

The tall, one-meter-eight footballers instantly saw stars in their eyes. After Hao Ren kicked a few more times, several of the loudest shouters fell to the ground.

The cafeteria floor was dirty and slippery; these people hadn't even had time to react before they tumbled to the ground, looking extremely disheveled.

Boom boom boom...

Zhao Jiayin and the football team captain were locked in a fierce struggle. Zhao Jiayin’s forehead was already bruised, while the football captain had several red marks from where he was being choked around his neck.

Both of them were already in a state of anger, especially Zhao Jiayin, who was full of rage and had his temples bulging with veins.

The members of this football team rarely attended classes at school and lived in separate dormitories. Therefore, they didn't know who Hao Ren was. When they saw him suddenly attack, their heads heated up, and they punched Hao Ren.

"Come on," Hao Ren, who was furious, spread his arms wide, grabbed two heads like watermelons, and slammed them together with a loud thud.

“Still want to fight” He then picked up another one with one hand, throwing him over his shoulder and onto the ground heavily.

The floor seemed to shake from the tremendous sound. The member of the football team that Hao Ren threw would have broken several bones at least.

A few others, seeing Hao Ren as a monster, quickly stepped back. Hao Ren grabbed their clothes directly and pushed them together with their backs touching each other and heads colliding like gongs; they fell to the ground in a daze—knocked unconscious.

The remaining few who were shouting just now received two slaps from Hao Ren. They spun around like spinning tops, unable to distinguish between east, south, north, or west.

"Hao Ren," Xie Yujia called out seeing Hao Ren’s anger.

Hao Ren clenched his teeth and rapidly punched several times on the chests of the few football team members who had already been stunned. They groaned and sank to their knees.

The captain of the football team, completely engrossed in the fight without noticing any changes around him, finally managed to pin Zhao Jiayin down and raised his fist.

Just as he was about to deliver a heavy blow, he suddenly felt his wrist being grabbed.

In front of many students' astonished gazes, this one-meter-eight tall football team captain was lifted by Hao Ren with just one hand.

The captain's wrist burned from the pain and tried to pull it free but found himself powerless against Hao Ren who was half a head shorter than him.

"F***, you dare provoke our football team. Do you want your soul" The furious captain glared at Hao Ren viciously.

He seldom cared about school affairs and didn't know who Hao Ren was.

The students around looked at the captain of the football team with pity—this guy really thought his football team was invincible. Provoking Hao Ren should mean he's asking for trouble.

"Zhao Jiayin, are you okay" Hao Ren asked Zhao Jiayin after turning to look at him.

Seeing Hao Ren turn around, the captain of the football team suddenly threw a hook punch toward Hao Ren's face.

A few female students sucked in their breaths, but Hao Ren’s fist was faster than their gazes. It hit the captain's abdomen with a loud thud, causing him to instantly curl up into a shrimp shape.

"The principal is coming! The principal is coming!" Several students near the staircase shouted.

The Water Show canteen was located between the teaching building and the administrative building, so teachers from the administrative building often came here for meals. The difference being that the teachers’ dining area was on the second floor.expression on Zhao Yanzǐ’s face, Duan Yao’s arrogance was instantly ignited as well. She glared fiercely back at Zhao Yanzǐ.Despite having suffered setbacks and feeling down, her stubborn nature remai...
