"Given this situation, it seems unlikely that Aunt Nan will be able to obtain the inner core from the government. Could it be that she plans to improve the crystal using her own cultivation techniques, and then exchange it with the capital after achieving some success?"
Watching the car gradually disappear around the street corner, Wang Zheng shook his head. On his way back to the dormitory alone, he also stood in Nan Fengyi's shoes and thought about how to maximize the benefits according to her ideas.
However, after thinking about it for a long time without coming up with a solution, I simply stopped worrying about it.
Anyway, given Xiaobai's growth in strength, this matter is still a long way off. If it really comes to that, the capital city will probably help them in order to appease the only demon king who is not hostile to humans.
The principal's situation is really not ideal right now. Although he has the help of the Demon King's inner core, judging from his recovery progress, he is starting to run out of money and can't keep up with the consumption.
Wang Zheng's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and a heavy aura emanated from him. This time, after the violent incident at noon, it was clear that no one dared to point fingers at Wang Zheng anymore.
In addition, this guy is obviously preoccupied with something, so no one dares to mess with him again.
As Wang Zheng strolled leisurely to his dormitory building, pondering where else he could generate income, he was immediately ambushed by Chu Xiaoman, Wu Huan, and Mei Yiqi.
Seeing the worry on their faces, Wang Zheng didn't react at all; instead, he teased them.
"What's wrong with the three of you? Why are you all looking so menacing? Are you planning to gang up on me?"
Chu Xiaoman rolled her eyes, completely ignoring Wang Zheng's complaints, and then asked with obvious concern:
"Wang Zheng, are you really planning to participate in the martial arts tournament this year?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zheng didn't hide anything and simply nodded silently.
He had no idea where the news, which had spread like wildfire, had come from; logically, only he and Old Man Chu should know about it.
Now that things are making such a fuss, he's starting to wonder if the school released this information to provoke the older students.
Although Wang Zheng didn't mind, he didn't have that much time to deal with people constantly coming to his door to cause trouble.
However, the mention of the martial arts tournament gave Wang Zheng a headache again.
He's fine in solo matches, but he can't do the work of four people in team matches.
Although he was confident he could take on four opponents at once, or even five with the substitutes, the key issue was that the organizing committee didn't accept this type of application.
In the past, teams with fewer players due to injuries were automatically eliminated, and there was no such thing as playing with fewer players.
If he were alone, he wouldn't even be eligible to participate.
For Wang Zheng, it didn't really matter who his teammates were, since the skill gap between them was too large.
All he needs to do at the start is jump into the enemy team, unleash a Battle Roar, and then activate Heart of Thorns. He doesn't even need to make a move; he can just wait for the referee to count down.
But the main problem is that he doesn't know many people at school. If these friends are willing to be with him, it will save him the trouble of looking for other people.
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng immediately looked up at the three people in front of him and said:
"Besides the individual competition, I'm also planning to participate in the team competition, but I can't register by myself. Are you guys interested? I can help you guys win the national championship!"
Wang Zheng's outrageous remarks not only shocked Chu Xiaoman, but even Mei Yiqi behind him frowned.
Xiao Chu even touched Wang Zheng's forehead directly.
"You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense in broad daylight?"
Wang Zheng slapped his hand away.
"I'm serious. Call me Brother Wang Zheng and I'll lead you all the way to the championship."
Wang Zheng's idea was good, but he underestimated the ambition of his companions.
Although Chu Xiaoman was somewhat curious and wanted to see for herself, she clearly knew that her special ability couldn't enhance the team's strength, and being a burden wasn't her style.
He then merely mocked Wang Zheng for being arrogant and told him not to be so cocky, without mentioning his own participation in the competition.
"The group stage hasn't even started yet, and you're already celebrating the championship with champagne? Be careful you don't embarrass yourself later!"
As for the remaining two... although they are still a bit lacking in strength, they also have their own pride.
Faced with Wang Zheng's invitation, Wu Huan smiled and shook his head without saying a word.
Although this girl doesn't talk much, she's been very stubborn ever since Wang Zheng met her. Don't be fooled by her seemingly indifferent appearance; she's actually just as proud as anyone else.
As for Mei Yiqi, who had always been somewhat disrespectful to Wang Zheng, he directly refused.
"Wang Zheng, I admit you are very strong, but team competitions are more about teamwork. I think I am still far from being strong enough and I am not qualified to compete for a spot in the competition."
Besides, even if I could get a ticket to the finals with your help, it wouldn't be because of my own ability, and I wouldn't want to.
Seeing the change in Wang Zheng's expression after hearing his words, Mei Yiqi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly added:
"Although I am very grateful for your invitation, the addition of visualization techniques this year has made the competition even more intense than before, and I know that my abilities are not up to par."
Give me another year, and I can stand proudly on this highest stage in the country, relying on my own abilities.
