Chapter 921: Chapter 111 First Mission Execution_3

Ever since Zhao Yu had outsmarted him last time, he had been thinking about was.h.i.+ng away the disgrace.

For Zhao Yu, these fights were meaningless.

In terms of combat experience, he was quite seasoned and didn’t need to practice with some greenhorns.

“Hmph, just wait, the second week when we change dormitories, I’ll certainly show Zhao Yu what’s what!”

Zhou Zhenghua knew there was only one way to challenge Zhao Yu openly and squarely.

That was to have a battle during the week of the dormitory exchange.

The first time entering the cla.s.sroom, the type of pool available, there were only ninety spots, and the order of entry also mattered.

Officially, it was a division between different dormitories, but in reality, it was also a division of strength.

Any sane person wouldn’t miss the chance to soak in the pool sooner and for a longer time.

So, in the second week, when Zhou Zhenghua was rubbing his fists and wiping his palms in antic.i.p.ation at the premium dormitory area, he found out Zhao Yu didn’t come at all.

“How dare he not come?!”

“Doesn’t he know that without a premium dorm, he won’t be in the first group to enter the cla.s.sroom? That means less time to soak in the pool!”

Zhou Zhenghua was puzzled, “One slow step leads to falling behind at every step, I can’t believe Zhao Yu actually chickened out…”

“Yeah, he must’ve been daunted by Boss’s reputation and just didn’t show up…”

Little did he know, at that moment Zhao Yu was in the Vice Princ.i.p.al’s office.

“You’re going to fight a Spirit Ghost?!” the Vice Princ.i.p.al asked in astonishment, a hint of skepticism in his eyes.

This was the first time he saw someone so eager to fight a Spirit Ghost within ten days of becoming a Spiritualist.

“Yes, to learn and to apply is timely, I should experience actual combat at some point…”

Zhao Yu nodded.

These days, he had learned almost everything necessary, and staying at school would only help in refining the design logic chain and acquiring some minor resources.

Besides, practices like cultivating Spiritual Power could be done anytime, anywhere, and didn’t require staying at school.

And the resources of the school, while eagerly sought after and highly valued by others,

weren’t as important to Zhao Yu as killing Spirit Ghosts as quickly as possible to get Technology Points, which in turn would strengthen his Spiritual Power.

After a moment of hesitation, the Vice Princ.i.p.al nodded and agreed.

“You can go, I’ll arrange for someone to take you on a mission…”

He thought, let the youth taste the bitterness of reality, and let Zhao Yu knock on the door of failure himself.

“Thank you, Vice Princ.i.p.al!”

…

Zhou Zhenghua waited until the end but Zhao Yu never showed up, leaving him to sigh, “It seems this guy is really scared and didn’t dare to come!”

“I thought he was a figure of note, but it turns out he’s only tough on the outside but hollow on the inside!”

This battle was not only awaited by them, but also by all the other two hundred-some students in their year.

After all, it would determine who stood as the foremost among them.

Seeing Zhao Yu didn’t appear, Yang Xiaoying and Hu Yapeng were somewhat disappointed.

After all, over the course of this week, because they were Zhao Yu’s companions, they had received a number of favors.

Otherwise, with their own strength, they couldn’t have stayed in the B-Cla.s.s area, but others did not challenge them there out of consideration for their connection to Zhao Yu.

Furthermore, over this period, their popularity had surged, thanks to Zhao Yu.

But now, with Zhao Yu not attending the battle, their disappointment was immense.

“Why didn’t he come, even if he lost, it’s better than not daring to come at all, right?!”

Hu Yapeng was discontented, having declared confidently before the fight that Zhao Yu was definitely stronger than Zhou Zhenghua.

But now, Zhao Yu didn’t even have the courage to compete, leaving him feeling as though his loud support was somewhat embarra.s.sing.

“Maybe he was held back by something else?!” Yang Xiaoying tried to find excuses for Zhao Yu.

“Heh, what could be more important than today’s battle?!”

“This is about whether or not you can soak in that pool of Spiritual Water, a treasure that can increase your Spiritual Power level progress…”

Hu Yapeng shook his head, “I misjudged him, I thought he’d actually turned over a new leaf, but it turns out to be nothing special…”

“This…”

Yang Xiaoying didn’t know how to retort, as Zhao Yu’s absence was a fact.

“Sigh!”

She sighed deeply and stood up to leave.

It wasn’t just the two of them who were disappointed, most of the people who came to support Zhao Yu felt the same.

This new cla.s.s, with over two hundred people, naturally formed groups among the thirty-odd locals, unanimously excluding outsiders.

As a result, people from outside were forced to band together, and Zhao Yu had been their standard-bearer, their standout figure.

But now, he didn’t even dare to fight, which was truly disheartening.

“Zhao Yu…”

“Hmph, better to rely on oneself than to seek help from others!”

w.a.n.g Meng snorted coldly and said, “One day, I’ll defeat them…”

His gaze s.h.i.+fted towards Zhou Zhenghua; and the moment their eyes met, he looked away, casting his glance towards the student he’d almost defeated.

“Haha, are you out-of-towners all this lame?”

“Zhao Yu didn’t even dare to show up, what a disgrace!”

Although Zhou Zhenghua didn’t say much, his buddies felt very relieved as they loudly voiced their feelings.

This caused everyone else to glare at them, but without the ability to refute.

After all, Zhao Yu really didn’t show up!

Thus, the crowd dispersed quickly, otherwise, staying put would only invite ridicule.

The dormitory disturbance came to a close, and when the crowd got to school, they were shocked to discover Zhao Yu didn’t come to cla.s.s.

“Teacher, where did Zhao Yu go?” Zhou Zhenghua couldn’t help but ask.
