Very soon, Su Hao was famous amongst the new students. They all knew a monster had appeared among the freshmen named Wu Xiangwu.
Not only the new students, even the academy teachers had heard his name, as well as his deeds on the training ground. The most entertaining part was, the one known as the warden for new students, Jin Datong, had lost his composure in front of this new student.
The teachers were looking forward to this new student’s performance.
But to Su Hao, was this a big matter? He only wanted to get his money. Everything else didn’t matter.
He wasn’t disappointed. The next day, after the end of class, Su Hao received his 10 gold yuan in front of the crowd. In an instant, he went from poor to rich. Su Hao destroyed the IOU. Jin Datong remained silent during the whole process.
Only now did he notice which class and teacher he had been assigned.
Su Hao was split off into class 8. The teacher was a burly bald man called Liu Changle, nicknamed Bald Old Liu. His face had two scars on it. His smile made him look ferocious and fierce.
The class didn’t have any familiar faces. Little fatty and He Qingqing had been assigned to different classrooms. Su Hao didn’t know which ones at the moment.
Su Hao looked around. In the class, everyone was looking at him with fiery eyes with a bit of fear mixed in, as if they were looking at a rare but were afraid of getting scratched or bitten.
Su Hao complained to himself and ignored it. A crowd of brats. If they dared to provoke him, he’d find an opportunity to make them all cry.
The Bald Old Liu brought Su Hao and the others to the side, briefly introducing himself.
After that, he said in an official tone: “You all will be doing a simple task. That is training, endless training. You will learn how bare-handed close combat, blade, spear, hammer, usage and maintenance of shields, survival in the wild, etc. Of course, the most important thing is actual combat…”
Bald Old Liu was neither quick nor slow with introducing the students to their daily life, his voice was low and powerful.
“Then our next training is the first step. It’s very simple — running!”
“What? Still running?” The experience of feeling half-dead from running was fresh on their minds.
Bald Old Liu spoke seriously: “Of course. According to yesterday’s display, other than Wu Xiangwu, no one was qualified. A powerful physique and a lasting endurance are prerequisites for becoming a strong warrior. So once you’re able to easily run the full 20 laps, we can move onto the next training item.”
At this time, another student asked: “Teacher Liu, will Wu Xiangwu also have to run?”
Bald Old Liu looked to Su Hao and said with a tone that did not allow questioning: “No one is an exception.”
Su Hao nodded towards Old Liu, then we walked to the student that asked the question: “What’s your name?”
That student was flustered and said in a trembling voice: “My name is Rong Guming. What do you want?”
Su Hao nodded: “Okay Rong Guming. I want you to remember this. I don’t need you to meddle in my affairs.”
Having said that, he sent Rong Guming flying with a fist, knocking out two teeth in the process.
Rong Guming didn’t have time to even grunt before crashing to the ground and passing out.
The other students jumped in unison, their scalps tingling in fear from Su Hao’s brutality. Even Bald Old Liu’s eye twitched and he couldn’t help but stroke his bald head.
Bald Old Liu looked fierce, but amongst the 8 teachers, he was considered as relatively well-behaved and rule-abiding. He knew why Su Hao had been assigned to his class was because the other teachers thought that students like Su Hao were troublesome and were unwilling to take him. So each of them pushed him away until he fell to Bald Old Liu.
He had thought that he should treat students equally. There was none that should be considered more troublesome, so he had agreed. Now it seems that he was too naïve.
Who had ever seen someone knockout a student as soon as they met?
Su Hao looked around in a circle and loudly said: “I’ll say it again. I don’t need you guys to meddle in my affairs! Understood?”
Immediately, some people ducked behind others and timidly said: “Wasn’t it just a question? Why hit someone? Can’t we just talk it out?”
Su Hao hesitated: “Should I not have hit people?”
When everyone saw that Su Hao didn’t move, they started to shout together: “That’s right. Why hit someone?” “Even if you’re stronger, you can’t just do whatever you want!” “So what if you’re strong. We have over forty people, why would we be afraid of you?”
Su Hao memorized each one of those that jumped out, a smile on the corner of his mouth. The opportunity he wanted had arrived. Time to use thundering means to save himself trouble!
He first glanced to Bald Old Liu. Seeing that he had his arms crossed and was only watching, no reactions, Su Hao relaxed.
Step by step, he approached the freckled boy who had spoked first.
The freckled boy thought to Rong Guming’s fate, and his legs felt wobbly, but a man’s dignity should not be provoked. He looked to the crowd for support: “Everyone go together. So what if he is powerful? We’re also warriors. As long as each person can get a kick in, we can beat him up. Otherwise he’ll think he’s the god above our heads.”
These words lit the crowds fuses.
Everyone had been practicing martial arts since they were young. Who hadn’t thrown out punches and kicks? They were the least afraid of fights. Could their forty plus people not beat up a single person? What a joke!
“Smack him!”
“Everyone go together!”
After shouting, some people started to move. As long as a single person lifted their head, the crowd would follow, and they surged towards Su Hao.
Su Hao smiled and didn’t say anything, simply treating them as being reckless.
So a one-sided fight occurred in the training field, even attracting other class students’ attention.
Su Hao was like a human-shaped beast. Every person that got within two meters of him, without even knowing what happened, would receive a hit. With a whimper, their entire body’s would fly back and crash into the ground, unable to recover.
“Ahhh~” “Ouch~”
Some were first sent flying, and before they could get back up, they got hit by the body of another student and were sent tumbling as a ball.
Not longer after, aside from a few girls that hadn’t spoken at all from beginning to end, everyone else was knocked down by Su Hao.
A few clear-minded individuals saw the situation turning for the worse and proactively lied on the ground, but they still couldn’t escape Su Hao’s wrath and were sent flying away.
There were also some resistant students. After being knocked down, they still got up. They were knocked down by Su Hao once again.
Soon, no one dared to get up and they obediently lied on the ground, hugging where it hurt and crying.
Many of them that had been crying helplessly looked to Bald Old Liu for rescue.
Bald Old Liu stepped out and said in a serious matter: “Wu Xiangwu, slow down there.”
Su Hao obediently nodded: “Okay Teacher Liu.”
Teachers must be given face.
Bald Old Liu said to the crowd: “Stop lying on the ground. Hurry and get up!”
The crowd didn’t dare to get up and timidly looked towards Su Hao.
Su Hao turned back and fiercely glared. He coldly said: “Are you deaf? Didn’t you hear Teacher Liu?”
The crowd didn’t dare to speak out, so they obediently got up.
Only Rong Guming was still on the ground.
“It looks like some people are deaf and need my help to fix it.” Su Hao slowly walked over to Rong Guming.
Rong Guming suddenly got up, trying to roll and craw away to hide.
But how could Su Hao let him go? He stomped the ground and he instantly appeared at Rong Guming’s side and kicked horizontally.
“Ah!”
Rong Guming let out a miserable scream and was sent flying a few meters, rolling on the ground crying bitterly.
At this time Su Hao lightly said: “Since he isn’t deaf but dared to not listen to Teacher Liu, he deserved to be beat!”
“Hiss–” Everyone gasped.
This guy was too brutal.
Bald Old Liu clapped his hands: “Okay, this farce ends here. Now, start running.”
As soon as he spoke, everyone began to move, scrambling to run.
The corner of Su Hao’s mouth twitched and he began to run behind the crowd.
Bald Old Liu smacked the back of his head and tsked in admiration: “This works pretty well!”
