Chapter 73: Chapter 72: The First Battle of the Fawn (2/2)
In the training grounds of Su City University, Class Three and Class Four were engaged in a combat confrontation.
The students of the two classes formed a circle, shouting wildly, cheering on their classmates.
In the middle of the training grounds, two young men stood commanding their magical creatures to battle against each other.
“Use Eagle Strike and finish it!” a boy clad in an old school uniform pushed up his black-framed glasses, a reflective flash passed over the lenses, making him appear very calm.
“Oh!” The unevenly feathered rooster powered up its legs, shooting into the air like an arrow released from a bow, and when its strength was exhausted, it suddenly spread its wings and dove at a faster speed toward its opponent.
“Little Bird, dodge quickly.” The slightly chubby girl across saw the rooster’s attack and her face turned anxious.
“Chirp, chirp~” The injured gray sparrow, as if startled silly, just stared blankly at the charging rooster.
“Oh~!”
A weak gust of wind spread, and the badly wounded rooster pressed its claws against the little sparrow, excitedly stretched its neck and crowed loudly, sweeping a contemptuous glance at the surrounding crowd.
“Class Three of the Combat Training, Li Yiming is victorious.” After the referee announced the result, two waiting medics hurried into the arena to attend to the little sparrow.
As the referee declared the outcome, the surrounding students erupted into murmurs.
“Wow, wasn’t Li Yiming supposed to be timid, even his own magical creature looked down on him?”
“Yeah, yeah, that’s three consecutive wins, right? They cooperate so well.”
“I never noticed before, but Li Yiming actually looks quite handsome…”
…
“Hey, have you guys heard? I heard that Li Yiming sent several third-year bullies who picked on him to the hospital. In the end, I don’t know what happened, but those guys all transferred schools and didn’t even sue Li Yiming,” a girl with freckles mysteriously told her peers the gossip.
“Probably got scared off, but Li Yiming is so strong, he actually managed to beat those guys.” The girl with braided pigtails admired Li Yiming with stars twinkling in her eyes.
“Little girl’s got a crush,” the freckled girl teased.
“Stop it, I do not, I just fancy him…” the braided girl feigned shyness.
“Pfft, you little minx,”
Amidst the heated debate, Shao Zifeng stood smiling at the back of the crowd, watching Li Yiming in the arena.
Unexpectedly, this scapegoat seemed to be unharmed.
His entire demeanor seemed like that of a different person.
Life is indeed unpredictable.
Speaking of which, the rooster, a blue light flickered in the depths of Shao Zifeng’s eyes.
…
Bald Qiang was currently feeling very annoyed, as his class had lost three matches in a row to Class Three, all to the same person.
“Bald Qiang, your class is not up to the mark, three of you couldn’t even defeat one of my students,” Class Three’s homeroom teacher Wu Songlin looked at Bald Qiang triumphantly, feeling extremely pleased.
I can’t defeat you, but my student can defeat yours.
Thinking this.
Wu Songlin’s aged face beamed like a blooming chrysanthemum, his missing front tooth apparent as he smiled.
“Wu Gap-Tooth, don’t get cocky, let’s you and I have a match.” Bald Qiang, flushed and furious, his neck veins bulging.
When Bald Qiang called out his nickname, Wu Songlin wasn’t upset, instead, he touched his missing front tooth and snickered, “You can’t even defeat my student, what makes you think you can challenge me?”
“You!” Bald Qiang breathed heavily, scanned his students, “Any volunteers for a challenge?”
The students of Class Four looked at each other, all dodging Bald Qiang’s gaze.
There really was no helping it, their class was the weakest, and the strongest, class monitor Sun Qiang, had been beaten first; there was no point in fighting now. @@novelbin@@
Bald Qiang stared fiercely at his students, frustrated at their incompetence.
Just then, his eyes were drawn to someone standing at the fringe of the crowd.
His eyes lit up: “Shao Zifeng, you’re up.”
While everyone else was looking down, Shao Zifeng who was smiling at the rooster stood out too much.
The students of Classes Three and Four all turned their gazes toward Shao Zifeng.
Even Li Yiming, who was standing coolly in the arena, looked over.
Shao Zifeng, hearing his name called, looked somewhat bewildered; he had just been checking on the rooster and the injured little sparrow and had no idea what had happened.
Damn.
Why are you all staring at me?
All the boys and girls in the audience looked at themselves with curious eyes.
Shao Zifeng just felt uncomfortable all over.
“Shao Zifeng, you’re up this time,” Bald Qiang said encouragingly, his tone also full of expectation.
Shao Zifeng felt a headache coming on. What was this all about?
But since he had been named, he couldn’t say no. He had to split the crowd and head to the field.
“Hey, hey, hey… I didn’t even notice there was a handsome guy standing behind us,” the girl with twisted braids said, her face full of surprise as she looked at Freckle Face.
Freckle Face covered her flushed face with her hands: “It’s over, it’s over. He must have heard all that shameless talk just now. What do we do…”
“Pssh, give it up, you flirtatious woman. This little brother is mine.”
…
Students on both sides stepped aside to clear a path, and all eyes fell on Shao Zifeng, who whispered among themselves.
Shao Zifeng forced a smile on his face and walked to the center of the field.
“Big Brother Shao.” Li Yiming, who had always acted cool, saw Shao Zifeng opposite him, clutched the hem of his oversized uniform, lowered his head, and even his ears turned a bit red.
Shao Zifeng was even more bewildered.
Dude, why the hell are you blushing?
It’s really easy to be misunderstood like this.
Don’t you have any sense of being a scapegoat?
Sure enough, seeing Li Yiming’s behavior, the students watching around the field burst into an uproar.
Some obvious fujoshis yelled “awsl” and collapsed into their friends’ arms, acting as if they had been shot through the heart.
A serene literary girl, seemingly out of nowhere, pulled out a notebook, her cheeks flushed as she wrote something down, as if this scene sketched out a love story that defied societal prejudices.
Shao Zifeng’s face darkened, and he said stiffly, “Lift your head, fight.”
Li Yiming shivered all over, immediately lifted his head, puffed out his chest, and straightened his arms tightly along the seams of his school pants, but his gaze still dared not meet Shao Zifeng’s, his eyes flitting about.
The cock, having now won three rounds in a row and brimming with confidence, cast a strange glance at its owner. Seeing his performance, it looked somewhat disdainful, then turned its head, curious to see who had the audacity…
“Oh”
The cock looked at the slender figure opposite, vaguely able to see a blazing inferno burning behind him.
The sparse feathers instantly clung to its body, its head drooping as it took small steps backward. Its former momentum was gone in a flash.
This wasn’t going to work.
Shao Zifeng looked at the opposing duo and desperately wanted to transform into a man from Zu’an.
The girls were already shouting things like dominant seme and younger uke.
He took a deep breath, forcing himself not to be distracted by the outside world.
Still, he had to strike first.
Shao Zifeng slightly closed his eyes and communicated with the small deer through his spiritual power.
He extended his index finger, a ripple of spatial disturbance spread out, and a semi-transparent space rift instantly opened, a faint cyan light glowing.
“Yo~”
The small deer was chewing on something, its wet, large eyes surveying the surroundings.
“Deer Aromatic Healing!”
Upon hearing Shao Zifeng’s voice, the deer slowed its chewing. A pair of illusory antlers emerged on its head, its eyes emitting a hazy green light.
All the students on the scene smelled a faint fragrance, feeling as if their bodies were being cleansed.
The downcast cock stiffened, its body covered by a green energy, healing wounds left from the fight, spreading a strange tingling sensation throughout its body…
The cock rolled its eyes back, vaguely seeing numerous chick sisters rushing towards it.
“Oh~”
The cock let out a strange, long crow, fell to the ground, and twitched its legs.
All present fell into silence…
Li Yiming’s eyes sparkled, looking at Shao Zifeng with admiration. “Big Brother Shao really is a good person, even healing my cock.”
Shao Zifeng felt Li Yiming’s strange gaze and twitched the corner of his mouth.
Damn it, he’s misunderstood again.
What do you think?
