On the empty campus of Nanjing University, Wang Zheng unexpectedly encountered several students who had not yet left the school. They were curiously examining the military vehicles driving on campus.
However, after recognizing Wang Zheng, the bully from Nanjing University, who was driving, he immediately turned around, changed his route, and disappeared on the main road of the campus in an instant.
Wang Zheng didn't know these classmates either, but seeing how "shy" they were trying to avoid him, he naturally wouldn't stop to greet them.
Little did he know that the news of him driving around campus with a girl from outside the school had quickly spread among the students staying on campus, and new rumors about him would probably appear on the campus forum soon.
For example, "A notorious school bully is suspected of being kept by a rich woman and was caught speeding on campus during the Spring Festival, which has attracted great attention from school leaders!"
For example, "Why did the bully from Nanjing University speed through the streets, and why did the young woman in the passenger seat cover her face and cry bitterly? Is all of this a sign of moral decay or a distortion of human nature?"
After all, Wang Shao's reputation at Nanjing University is well-known.
Besides, there's no responsibility on the internet; people can make up whatever they want.
If the post goes viral, we can ride on the coattails of this rookie king's popularity.
However, if Wang Zheng really comes to power, these idle senior students will probably be in for a rough time.
Leaving those aside for now, just a few minutes later, Wang Zheng brought the car to a steady stop in front of the martial arts hall.
After getting off the car, he led Fu Zhenzhen around the front of the martial arts hall and knocked on the door of the living room on the second floor.
"Come in, the door's unlocked."
As Chu Tianxing's powerful voice rang out, Wang Zheng didn't stand on ceremony and pushed the door open to enter.
Inside the still clean and tidy room, besides Chu Tianxing, there was another elderly man with a resolute face sitting opposite him.
Although the old man's hair had turned white much earlier than Chu Tianxing's, there were still quite a few silver strands mixed in with his short, black hair, which suggested that he must have worked very hard every day.
Needless to say, this must be Fu Zhenfeng, the highest commander of the Baoshan military headquarters, who was known as one of the "Thunder and Fire Twin Blades" alongside Old Man Chu when he was young.
However, unlike what Wang Zheng had guessed, Commander Fu, who was sitting opposite Chu Tianxing, looked even more robust than Old Chu.
His cheeks were dark, his eyes were bright and piercing, his body was upright, and his back was straight as a pine tree.
Although he wasn't wearing a military uniform and was only dressed in a loose-fitting civilian outfit, you could still see the muscles bulging beneath his clothes, thick, strong, and full of power.
Wang Zheng was also somewhat surprised, wondering if the awakening in that era was always so intense.
Take these two brothers wielding the "Thunder and Fire Twin Blades," for example. They are both incredibly robust, showing no signs of being elemental awakeners at all.
If Wang Zheng hadn't known that Commander Fu's superpower was elemental fire ability, he would have thought that the man in front of him should be a superhuman strongman.
However, although the old man looked imposing and domineering, his face was somewhat pale.
It seems he was affected by the toxin; his complexion wasn't very good. However, this minor injury couldn't diminish his majesty and imposing presence, making him awe-inspiring.
In front of this old man, Wang Zheng also restrained his cynical nature and stood obediently.
After all, there were outsiders present. In private, things could be done however they wanted, but in front of Lao Chu, an old friend, Wang Zheng had to give him some face.
Fu Zhenzhen greeted Chu Tianxing immediately upon entering, then stood respectfully behind her grandfather, politely declining Chu Tianxing's offer to sit down.
Just as Wang Zheng was sizing up the commander of the Baoshan Military Command, Old Master Fu Zhenfeng was also looking Wang Zheng up and down.
Seemingly noticing Wang Zheng's tense state, Fu Zhenfeng praised him:
"Good, not bad, very energetic!"
“Lieutenant Wang, your principal and I have been friends for many years. You don’t need to be too reserved, just relax.”
Upon hearing that her grandfather's information was outdated, Fu Zhenzhen quickly reminded him in a low voice.
"He's now Major Wang. The conferment ceremony was just held this morning."
Fu Zhenfeng came to Jingnan in a private capacity and did not go to the military region, so he naturally did not know that in such a short time, Wang Zheng had been promoted from lieutenant to major like a rocket.
However, the old man was, after all, a commander, and immediately laughed it off.
"Not bad, not bad. It's this old man who's fallen behind. Young and promising, truly young and promising..."
Fu Zhenfeng was not surprised by Wang Zheng's promotion.
After all, in his opinion, Wang Zheng had made such great contributions, possessed strength comparable to an A-level Awakened, and had the special ability to break through the Demon King's domain. The key point was that this kid was not even 17 years old. No matter how you looked at it, he had a bright future.
Let alone a major, even if he were a senior colonel in Baoshan, what difference would it make?
The more he looked at it, the more craving it became, and eventually, a hint of jealousy crept into his gaze as he looked at Chu Tianxing.
Although these two friends chose different paths back then, their abilities were always equally matched.
Later, Chu Tianxing chose to venture into the wilderness alone, where he had a fortuitous encounter and his strength improved to a higher level, even surpassing Chu Tianxing's. But even at that time, Fu Zhenfeng never had the same feelings as he does now.
Now that he sees that Chu Tianxing has found such an outstanding successor, he is so envious that he is drooling with envy. Why can't Yunnan produce a few talents like this?
At the same time, he kept cursing Chu Tianxing in his heart for his incredible luck. He had opportunities all the time when he was young, and now he can find such a genius in his old age...
Who is our young master Wang? If his ability to read people could be represented as a real skill in the data panel, he would definitely be at the maximum level without even looking at it.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, he quickly replied:
"Commander Fu, you can just call me Xiao Wang. This isn't a military region, so you can call me whatever you like."
Fu Zhenfeng nodded, then continued:
"Xiao Wang, then I won't stand on ceremony with you. But please don't call me Commander Fu anymore, it sounds too formal. Just call me Grandpa Fu, like Zhenzhen does."
Chu Tianxing: ? ? ?
Wang Zheng: ? ? ?
The father and son from southern Beijing both have the same bewildered expression.
One reason is that they feel their longtime frenemy might have ulterior motives and could be trying to steal their partner.
Another reason is that they feel they've suddenly been demoted by a generation, and feel like they've been taken advantage of.
However, Fu Zhenfeng only said it casually and obviously didn't take it too seriously. He then continued:
“When I was recuperating in Kunming, I kept hearing the healers from the military region say that you were very skilled at treating toxins. You were able to dispel the neurotoxins of the poisonous python king. That’s really amazing.”
Wang Zheng could no longer remain silent, so he could only humbly say:
"I only know a little bit about this; it's just my colleagues being polite. Don't take it seriously..."
