The fact that Duan Fang, a junior, ignored the provocations of others and went directly to Wang Zheng had already aroused considerable dissatisfaction among the crowd.
His challenge to Wang Zheng at this moment ignited everyone's emotions.
Some people who don't know Wang Zheng's strength think that Wang Dashao only got first place because of his connections, and they criticize Duan Fang for being shameless and only knowing how to challenge the weakest junior.
Some say he lacks ambition and doesn't dare to challenge the strong, so his achievements in this life are limited and he will stop here.
Some even challenged him, telling him to challenge the veteran powerhouse, Li Yi, the student council president.
The challengers' camp was filled with jeers and jeers, as if Duan Fang had committed a terrible crime by not intending to let them "bully" Wang Zheng.
However, these clueless guys, in their words and actions, always placed Wang Zheng in a weaker position.
They wanted to force Duan Fang, who was first in the selection competition, to give up choosing Wang Zheng as his opponent, so that they could reap the benefits themselves.
Wang Zheng was somewhat surprised to see the "raging bears" in front of him.
Although he had considered that some people might think he was too young and lacked strength, he didn't expect there to be so many fearless people these days. Seeing the intense gazes these people were giving him, his expression became somewhat strange.
'Good grief, so I'm the one who's in the spotlight, huh? Do these guys really think I'm an easy target? Do they really not care about the school's official rankings at all?'
Wang Zheng couldn't help but reflect on whether he had been too low-key lately, giving these people the illusion that they could challenge him.
These senior students at Nanjing University are truly rotten. No wonder they haven't made any progress over the years. Once their enrollment plan is realized, they'll have to start correcting this bad habit from next year!
At this moment, Wang Zheng remained silent, pondering how to improve the school's atmosphere, but Duan Fang was not so good-tempered.
Before Wang Zheng could even respond, Duan Fang revealed a disdainful sneer, slamming his spear heavily into the ground, his aura erupting from his body.
The strength of the B-level Awakened was undeniable.
While everyone was stunned and retreated, even Li Yi couldn't help but narrow his eyes, becoming wary of this unknown junior.
Then, Duan Fang let out a wild roar and shouted:
"A bunch of ignorant fools who can't see their own strength. If they go to the finals, they'll only bring shame to Nanjing University and the principal. I should break your legs in the challenge match so you won't embarrass yourselves when you leave the school."
You think Li Yi is the strongest student at Nanjing University? Then ask him if he's a match for Wang Zheng!
Seeing Duan Fang speak so rudely, Li Yi's two companions became excited and wanted to test their junior's abilities.
Li Yi, however, didn't seem to care at all. He chuckled and stopped them, then said to the man who was neither firm nor lenient:
"Junior Duan is right. In terms of strength, I am definitely no match for Junior Wang Zheng. In any case, on the Nanjing University strength list, his ranking is above mine, and I am completely convinced of his strength."
At this point, he changed the subject.
"However, compared to Junior Brother Wang, I am more curious about Junior Brother Duan. If I remember correctly, Junior Brother, you dropped out of school after only one semester and have not been seen since."
You skipped a grade and went straight to your third year when you came back to school. I imagine the practical training over the past two years has greatly improved your skills.
I really want to spar with you and see if your two years of experience outside have truly taught you more than you did in school!
Duan Fang's eyes narrowed upon hearing this, realizing that the student council president truly lived up to his reputation.
He had only been back and had just played a few challenge matches, yet the other player had already dug up his past experiences. His thorough preparation was truly worthy of his former title as the top student at Nanjing University.
However, he did not respond to Li Yi's indirect challenge, and even ignored Li Yi's words. He simply turned his head and stared at Wang Zheng with burning eyes, as if waiting for him to make a decision.
Although the junior student, as the one being challenged, did not have the right to refuse, Duan Fang, as an awakened practitioner of practical skills, also hoped to gain the other party's recognition.
He genuinely wanted to challenge Wang Zheng and test his junior's level, not just for the chance to compete.
It had nothing to do with the challenge or the martial arts tournament. Duan Fang just wanted to see what kind of genius could make his idolized principal rank him first on Nanjing University's strength list.
Speaking of which, Duan Fang is also an absolute genius.
He awakened his powers naturally when he was only in his first year of high school and was personally recruited into Nanjing University by Chu Tianxing.
Later, due to the unique nature of his superpower, he was unable to improve his strength or train his superpower at school, resulting in no progress in his strength for an entire semester.
After his classmates regarded him as yet another naturally awakened but useless person, Chu Tianxing defied their objections.
Using the excuse that they would rather not have a student who had naturally awakened than ruin a child's future, they gave him special treatment, pulled strings, and sent him to the front lines for training.
He even personally stayed by his side on the front lines for several months, waiting until he had fully adapted to the intensity of the front lines before finally leaving.
Duan had been fighting on the front lines for two years and hadn't appeared at school for a long time. In addition, he was relatively weak in his freshman year and had little presence, which is why the junior and senior students didn't have much of an impression of him.
