Holidays always seem to fly by, and before we knew it, it was October 7th.

It was only eight o'clock in the morning, and Wang Zheng went out still half asleep.

The military research institute hasn't contacted me for the past few days, nor has it mentioned going to help again.

My mom hasn't said anything about whether there's been any progress on the matter of him arranging for my dad to be a guinea pig.

He did make a few calls to Qian Ruibo to inquire about the old lady's condition and received a reply that everything was normal, which moved Qian Ruibo deeply.

Wang Zheng is now planning to fight for benefits for his father and has taken the matter to heart, but the military region has not contacted him and there is nothing he can do.

As for Wang Zheng, who loves to sleep in, why did he leave home so early in the morning?

It was all because Chu Xiaoman called early this morning, asking Wang Zheng to come to the school, and mysteriously said that there was something important to discuss.

Although Wang Zheng didn't believe a word of it, he was woken up and couldn't fall back asleep.

He stared at the ceiling for a while, then jumped out of bed, grumbling as he went out.

That Chu Xiaoman is really something. She finally gets a holiday, and instead of resting early in the morning, she disturbs everyone's sleep. Besides, today is already the last day of the National Day holiday.

As for important things, all she thinks about is eating and playing; there's nothing important about that.

When Wang Zheng arrived at the martial arts hall in a daze, he discovered that apart from Bai Meixi, Wu Huan and Mei Yiqi were also present.

Wang Zheng had just walked over with a yawn when he heard Chu Xiaoman sneakily approaching: "Wang Zheng, I heard my grandpa say yesterday that some people from Shanghai University are coming over in a few days for an exchange competition."

Wang Zheng flicked her forehead: "What does this have to do with me? You've been calling me nonstop this morning just because of this?"

"Oh my! The freshman exchange competition! My grandfather said that the president of Shanghai University is personally leading the team to participate in the exchange competition. He said that they have acquired a new technique this year, and after practicing it for a while, they want to exchange techniques and improve together."

Wang Zheng turned and left. What was the point of exchanging ideas? There was no benefit to it, so he couldn't be bothered to go.

Chu Xiaoman grabbed Wang Zheng's arm tightly, but Wang Zheng was too strong, and she ended up being dragged along the ground by him.

Before Wang Zheng could even reach the door, he saw Chu Tianxing push open the door of the martial arts hall!

"What are you guys doing? You're on holiday and not resting at all, working so hard?"

Wang Zheng flung Chu Xiaoman aside, clapped his hands, and said in a pretentious manner, "Cough...cough...The principal is right. A balance between work and rest is essential for better cultivation. I trained too late yesterday and I'm so tired now. I haven't recovered yet. I'm going to take a nap first."

Chu Xiaoman naturally resisted and tried to pounce on him again, but Wang Zheng dodged her.

"Grandpa, we all know. Shanghai is coming to play an exchange match, so I specially called everyone to come and practice together."

Chu Tianxing chuckled and said, "Oh, I see. I knew it. You're so thoughtful. I was planning to let you know this afternoon, but it was all decided on the spur of the moment. It's not that important. You can do as you please."

Chu Xiaoman shouted, "I heard everything! That Principal Yan looks down on us, saying that anyone who comes to their school... Waaah! Waaah! Waaah~"

"Cough cough cough."

Chu Tianxing coughed and quickly covered Chu Xiaoman's mouth.

"There are some things you shouldn't talk about outside, Xiaoman, you can't say things carelessly."

Chu Xiaoman stuck out her tongue, feigning innocence: "I know Grandpa looks down on Shanghai University and Beijing University the most. This time, I'll definitely beat them to a pulp!"

'This grandfather and grandson are putting on a show!'

Wang Zheng watched the two perform with an expression of complete indifference.

However, Wu Huan remained quiet and didn't say anything this time, which made Wang Zheng very happy.

They've grown up! It's true that classmates grow up so fast when they're around such excellent people like themselves.

However, when he turned around and saw Mei Yiqi, he saw that Mei Yiqi looked eager to try, and he immediately covered his face.

Mei Yiqi responded loudly, "Principal, don't worry. I missed the training camp before, but this time I'll definitely teach them a lesson and let them know that Nanjing University is not to be trifled with!"

Chu Tianxing shouted, "Good! That's the spirit you young people should have!"

"Slap~~~Slap~~Slap~"

Wang Zheng's face was full of joy, but he clapped perfunctorily.

"That was great! Keep it up, I'm off."

"Hey! Wang Zheng...you..."

Before Wang Zheng could finish speaking, Chu Xiaoman rushed over again and held him tightly, preventing him from leaving.

Chu Tianxing didn't care at all; he had completely grasped Wang Zheng's weakness.

Chu Tianxing coughed lightly twice, then slowly said:

"This freshman exchange competition, although it's just something Old Man Yan and I organized privately, has pretty good prizes! All freshmen from both schools can participate. As for the rewards, I won't go into details, since some people might not even care, but the first-place winner gets a full ten spirit crystals!"

Upon hearing about the ten spiritual energy crystals, Wang Zheng instantly perked up and stood up straight.

Chu Xiaoman was still struggling with him when Wang Zheng suddenly stopped, causing her to lose her balance and fall on her bottom.

At this moment, she was rubbing her buttocks and glaring angrily at Wang Zheng.

Wang Zheng was standing in the shadows, the morning light streaming through the glass window and falling on him, making him appear exceptionally tall and imposing, his face radiating passion and fervor.

Then he shouted, "How dare you, a mere Demon University, come to my territory and challenge me?"
