Chapter 97 Qualifications
After Chen Chuan returned to the room, he closed the door naturally, as if the fight just now was as common as eating and drinking.
He first washed up and changed his clothes. After walking out, he found that Jing Lin was gone. Only some students were still discussing excitedly there. When they saw him, they nodded and greeted him.
He came to the public phone, and the dorm supervisor looked at him helplessly and said, "Student Chen, don't take it out on the wall next time you're in trouble. It's rubbed off a lot of the paint."
Chen Chuan said apologetically, "I'm sorry, teacher."
The dormitory supervisor smiled and said, "Well, you can work on the floor next time. It doesn't matter if more damage occurs. That way, it will be easier for me to report it, right?"
Chen Chuan also smiled. After the dormitory teacher left, he picked up the phone and called Cheng Zitong.
After the call was connected, he said, "Teacher, I just met a man who claimed to be from Central City. He said he wanted to take me to see his teacher."
Cheng Zitong's voice turned serious: "Where, when? Did you agree?"
"I didn't agree." Chen Chuan briefly recounted what had just happened.
Cheng Zitong said in a deep voice, "I understand. If this person comes to you again, just refuse him directly. Remember, this is Wuyi College in Yangzhi City, not some central city. I'm busy and can't leave here right now. If you have any questions, you can call the senior manager of the Recruitment Department directly, and he will help you solve them."
Chen Chuan said hello.
After Cheng Zitong hung up the phone, he turned around and was about to talk to the person on the sofa opposite, but found that the person had disappeared.
After Chen Chuan put down the phone, he looked at his watch. It didn't take him long. He was delayed a little while washing up, but it was not past dinner time.
After taking the elevator downstairs, he headed towards the cafeteria. On the way, he recalled the previous battle. Jing Lin was a little different, as if he had broken free from the shackles of the Breathing-Driven Alien Organization, but he didn't think that this performance alone was that remarkable.
According to his observation, the teachers in the academy also have this level, unless Jing Lin has some extra skills, or simply thinks too highly of himself.
He was unwilling to meet that teacher because he didn't believe in the so-called opportunity at all. If that were the case, Cheng Zitong would have told him long ago.
Moreover, as his instructor, Cheng Zitong certainly could not avoid such matters, or at least he had to be aware of it. However, the other party bypassed Cheng Zitong and came directly to him, and there was no respect in his words.
That is an arrogance that runs deep into the bones.
While he was thinking, he arrived at the cafeteria unknowingly. He put the matter aside for the time being, and after eating, he returned to the dormitory to continue training.
Two more days passed like this, and on the day off at the end of the month, he went back home. This time, Nian Fuli was still not there. According to Yu Wan, he had been given a lot of tasks recently, but Nian Fuli did not feel tired at all. Instead, he was full of energy.
Chen Chuan could guess the reason. He smiled, took out the stack of tickets, and said, "Aunt, these are given by the college teachers. You and your husband can take your cousins to see it."
Yu Wan looked at the stack of tickets and couldn't help but feel a little surprised. In the Republic of China, martial arts were popular and people from all walks of life were very keen on boxing matches. However, the citizens of Yangzhi City could usually only watch matches in various boxing gyms, but no matter the scale, competitive level, or even the duration, they could not be compared with Wu Yi.
Although underground arenas like the Bloodstain Gang and the Iron Chain Gang have a high level of competition, they are not only bloody and exposed, but also not places that ordinary citizens can go to. Therefore, the annual competitive arena competition of Wu Yi students at the end of the year is the most popular. Tickets have been hard to come by in previous years. I didn't expect Chen Chuan to take home so many tickets at once.
Neighbors can also share some of these tickets, so they can go watch the boxing match together.
"Chan'er, this time your aunt will accept it."
"Chan'er, I want one too. I want one too." Nian Mo was jumping there.
Yu Wan grabbed her youngest son by the ears and lectured him, "The things your cousin brought back last time weren't enough for you to play with. And, how many times have I told you not to call your brother by his nickname?"
"I'm polite, I'm polite, I always call you brother." Nian Lu tilted his little face, his expression full of "come and praise me".
Yu Wan patted Nian Mo's butt and said, "Sister is much more sensible than you."
Chen Chuan smiled and said, "I'll bring it to you next time." Nian Lu immediately said sensibly, "Thank you, brother."
After spending a night at home, when I woke up the next day, it was already December. Although there was still a month before the Chinese New Year, every household had already started to decorate.
After breakfast, Chen Chuan said goodbye to Yu Wan and went straight back to school. After entering the school gate, he could hear the orderly running sounds and slogans from the training ground of the B-grade students. Some A-grade students on the road were also in a hurry, and when they met each other, they just nodded as a greeting.
In a few days, the B-grade students will have to undergo the competition selection, while the A-grade students will have to worry about the final exams. This time of year is the most stressful time for Wuyi students.
In contrast, he walked slowly and leisurely in the school with his hands in his pockets.
After returning to the dormitory, he changed his clothes and went to the military training hall he often went to. The management teacher here was very familiar with him, and he only needed to nod and say hello every time he entered.
But today he felt that this teacher was a little different from usual. When he came in, he kept looking forward, as if he didn't see him.
He thought for a moment and continued to walk in. After pushing open the door, he saw that the spacious training ground was empty. The students who came here to train in the past were nowhere to be seen. Only a tall and thin man with a half-smile on his face was standing there.
The moment he came in, he guessed the man's identity, but he did not retreat. Instead, he turned around and closed the two doors behind him, and stood in front of the man.
The man looked at him with interest and said, "You're quite perceptive. I felt you slow down for a moment when you entered the venue. You must have noticed something was wrong today, but you came in anyway. Was it because you trusted the school environment, or because you had confidence in yourself?"
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "It's probably both."
The man said, "Very interesting. Your confidence must have been accumulated through surviving countless battles and defeating your opponents time and time again. Very good."
Chen Chuan could understand the man's gaze. It was like he was evaluating an object that was worth discussing. He seemed to be wavering between an intermediate value that could be given up or acquired at any time, and he was enjoying the pleasure of this measurement.
This attitude undoubtedly places oneself in a very high position, which is also a kind of arrogance. Although it is expressed differently from Jing Lin's way of expression, there is no fundamental difference.
He said, "It seems that he is indeed your student."
"student?"
The man seemed a little surprised, but also a little amused, "You're wrong, he's just a toy of mine."
A hint of evil interest appeared on his lips. "He is a bastard child who was often abused by the heir when he was young, but he was reluctant to flee his home because even though he was beaten, scolded, and abused, he lived better than most civilians in Central City and ninety-nine percent of the people in the slums.
Deep down, he longed to be superior, longed for revenge, and longed to trample underfoot those who had beaten, scolded, and abused him in the past, so I gave him a chance because I really wanted to see how this drama would unfold next.
You have to buy a ticket to see a play, so I'm willing to give him some advice, but I can't give him too much, because that would be too boring. You know, when he was in Central City, he was an inferior and timid person, not even daring to speak loudly to others, but now outside, he has become arrogant, reserved, and superior. This is really interesting. "
Chen Chuanshuo said, "Then you came to me for the same reason?"
"No, no, no." The man immediately denied it. "I won't go to another play before I finish watching the one I'm in. Originally, I just wanted to meet you on a whim to see if you're really as great as the newspapers boasted about you. But after Jing Lin came back, I learned more about your past and found that you meet my requirements."
"Require?"
The man looked at him and said, "People like you who come from small places are just looking for an opportunity to officially gain a foothold in the Central City. As a student of Wu Yi, there are only two ways to go to the Central City.
One is to enter the main hospital by yourself, but the number of places is very limited and almost no one will be invited except for recommended students. The other one is more practical for you, which is to establish a personal dependence relationship with someone who is qualified to go to the central city and enter there as a servant. However, this opportunity is not available to everyone, and no one will look at you if you are not good enough.
Whether it is what you have done in the past or the strength that defeated my toy not long ago, it has proved your personal ability and you are qualified.
So as long as you agree to be my servant, well, of course nominally you will be my student's sparring partner, then you can go to Central City with me."
He smiled playfully again, "It doesn't matter if you can't make up your mind right away. I've always been tolerant of talented people. I'll give you two days. When you've thought it over, you can come to me."
After saying that, he walked out.
Chen Chuanshuo said, "May I know your name?"
"Tan Wang."
Tan Wang walked past him, opened the door, turned around and said, "I forgot to say, I don't like being rejected. Enjoy this day off." After that, he walked out.
Chen Chuan stood in the empty venue and thought for a while. After a while, he also walked out.
After leaving the training hall, Tan Wang went straight back to the villa in the center of the lake. However, when he walked into the training hall, he narrowed his eyes because he saw someone sitting on the sofa where he usually sat.
This was a lion-like man with a broad mouth and a big nose, and loose hair draped over his shoulders. His broad and strong figure seemed to bend the sofa. He was wearing a corset training suit, revealing distinct muscles. His strong body seemed to possess a captivating power that could make people feel suffocated even from such a distance.
His narrow eyes narrowed slightly, "Who are you?"
The man slowly stood up from the sofa, and with this movement, a stronger sense of oppression suddenly arose, and he answered in a broad and powerful voice: "He Xiaoxing."
