"Look, it looks like Qi Xiang has blocked Chen Feng."

"This is going to be interesting."

"You don't know yet, do you? This morning, Chen Feng and Zhao Xue were chatting and laughing, and someone reported them to Qi Xiang."

"What? Everyone in school knows that Qi Xiang is madly pursuing Zhao Xue. Has Chen Feng lost his mind? He actually dares to pursue Zhao Xue?"

"Hmph, you think you're so great just because you've only just broken through to become a martial artist? You've kicked a hornet's nest, haven't you?"

"That's right. He used to be the worst student in our class, relying on his parents' pension to buy medicine to improve his qi and blood. Even if he breaks through to become a martial artist, he won't have a future."

"Chen Feng is like a toad trying to eat swan meat, and he ended up running into Qi Xiang. He's definitely going to get what's coming to him today."

At this moment, many students in the cafeteria saw this scene and started discussing it, while some of Chen Feng's classmates watched it all indifferently from the crowd.

"Qi Xiang, what do you want to do?" Zhou Ping stood up and shouted.

"Chen Feng, you piece of trash! I heard you just became a martial artist and you've already become arrogant and ignorant, daring to make a move on Zhao Xue? Don't you know Zhao Xue is my target?"

Qi Xiang ignored Zhou Ping and stepped forward, acting all high and mighty as he yelled at Chen Feng.

"Hey, where did that mad dog come from in the school cafeteria?" Chen Feng asked loudly, turning around and looking around as if he hadn't seen Qi Xiang.

"Bang--"

Qi Xiang's face immediately turned red. He stepped forward and slammed his hand heavily on the dining table, knocking Chen Feng and Zhou Ping's lunchboxes up and splashing soup and water everywhere.

Chen Feng pulled Zhou Ping away and jumped back, then looked at Qi Xiang and sneered, "Qi Xiang, I think you should change your name to Eat Shit, because your brain is full of shit."

"Whoosh—"

Chen Feng's voice was loud, and instantly all the hundreds of students in the cafeteria heard it, causing a huge uproar, because Qi Xiang was quite famous among the senior students and currently had the highest Qi and Blood value.

No one expected that Chen Feng, an unknown student, would dare to insult Qi Xiang like that, so everyone started discussing it.

"Who is this guy? He's too fierce! He actually dares to insult Qi Xiang?"

"He is Chen Feng, a senior in high school. He is the son of martyrs whose parents were attacked and killed by a cult half a year ago. I heard that he just broke through to become a ninth-rank martial artist a few days ago."

Why did Qi Xiang approach him?

"I heard it's because of a girl, Zhao Xue, the first senior to become a ninth-rank martial artist. It's said that Qi Xiang is pursuing Zhao Xue relentlessly, but Zhao Xue is indifferent to him. And today, Zhao Xue was chatting and laughing with Chen Feng, which angered Qi Xiang."

"You're courting death!" Qi Xiang roared, and a powerful surge of blood energy erupted from his body, making him look like a mad tiger.

"Stop. This is the school cafeteria, not a place for you to fight. If you have any disputes, go to the playground and settle them in the ring."

Just then, an even stronger aura suppressed Qi Xiang, and then a teacher appeared in front of the two of them, coldly speaking to them.

The school generally doesn't interfere with fights between martial arts students, but it does stipulate that fighting is not allowed in other parts of the school. If there are conflicts or disputes, students can apply for a duel at the arena on the school playground.

"Chen Feng, do you dare to fight in the ring? I bet you're too good for a piece of trash. Kneel down and beg for mercy, and maybe I'll spare your life today," Qi Xiang asked Chen Feng coldly.

"Do you think I'm just bored and have nothing better to do than go to the ring with you without any reward? Unless you can come up with something that interests me, whoever wants to go to the ring can go," Chen Feng scoffed, rolling his eyes at him.

Although Chen Feng believed in his own abilities, he was unwilling to argue with Qi Xiang, that mad dog, and give everyone a show to watch, because he and Zhao Xue had nothing going on. If they were to fight like this, the rumors would only get more and more outrageous.

"If you beat me, this D-level martial art, the Wild Bull Fist, is yours." Qi Xiang was still excited. Seeing that Chen Feng was unwilling to fight him in the arena, he impulsively took out a martial arts USB drive and shouted loudly.

"Is this true?" Chen Feng's eyes lit up immediately. A D-level martial arts technique is worth at least 100,000 yuan, and there's nowhere to buy it.

Now that Qi Xiang has come to him, how could Chen Feng refuse?

"Of course, but only if you can beat me." Qi Xiang snorted. He was absolutely confident in his strength. He had tested his Qi and Blood value a few days ago when he came back from vacation and it had reached 18.5, which was second only to Zhao Xue's in the entire senior class.

"Teacher, please be a witness and help verify the authenticity of the martial arts technique."

Chen Feng immediately turned around, cupped his hands, and said to the teacher next to him, "Because students need a teacher as a referee when they compete in a ring."

“Okay, I’ll be the referee.” Since he happened to be in this situation, the teacher decided to act as the referee according to the school’s rules.

In front of everyone, the teacher took the martial arts USB drive from Qi Xiang, checked it on the martial arts website using his mobile phone, nodded and said to everyone, "This is indeed the D-level martial arts skill, the Raging Bull Fist. I will keep it safe now."

"Brother Feng, are you really going to fight Qi Xiang? I heard his health is over 18 points. Can you handle it?" Zhou Ping asked Chen Feng nervously.

"Give it a try." Chen Feng didn't say much, just smiled faintly.

As a group of people walked onto the playground, the entire Jiangzhou No. 1 Middle School was in an uproar, as many busybodies called and sent group messages to notify their classmates, roommates, and others to come and see what was going on.

When Chen Feng and Qi Xiang arrived at the playground, students kept running towards it, quickly surrounding one of the arenas.

"Brother Xiang, Brother Xiang—"

Qi Xiang comes from a very well-off family. His father, Qi Zhilin, is the CEO of a company, and his older brother, Qi Fei, is the captain of a hunting team. He has a lot of influence at school, so when he came on stage, many students immediately cheered.

"Brother Xiang, teach that kid a lesson, beat him until he shits!" someone shouted, pointing at Chen Feng.

"That's right, anyone who dares to compete with Brother Xiang for his sister-in-law should be beaten to a pulp!" someone who knew the inside story shouted.

"Brother Feng, keep it up. If it really doesn't work, just exchange a few blows with him and then admit defeat. We've just broken through to the ninth rank of martial artist, there's no shame in admitting defeat. A gentleman takes revenge even after ten years."

After Chen Feng went on stage, Zhou Ping shouted at him from below the stage, close to Chen Feng.

"I am Zhang Yuanhua, a teacher in the second year of high school, and I will be the referee for this match. Students should stop when they have made a point, and it is strictly forbidden to intentionally injure or cripple a classmate."

"Furthermore, after the fight, regardless of who wins or loses, all grudges will be wiped clean, and no further disputes are allowed. Do you all understand?" The teacher who came up on stage with the two shouted.

This is a common occurrence in schools. While students are allowed to compete and challenge each other, the school also wants to prevent them from making enemies. Therefore, after resolving grudges through the challenge, no further disputes are allowed regardless of who wins or loses. Otherwise, the school will intervene to investigate and handle the matter.

"Understood, Teacher Zhang," Chen Feng and Qi Xiang replied loudly at the same time.
