Swish, swish, swish…
As Wang Zhisheng’s voice rang out, almost everyone snapped back from their shock and searched the crowd for the source of the sound.
The next moment.
They saw Wang Zhisheng amidst the crowd.
Wang Zhisheng stood with his arms crossed, his head held high, ignoring everyone’s gaze. His eyes remained fixed on Jiang Wuming, adopting a provocative stance.
Seeing this, many new students turned their attention back to Jiang Wuming, as if wanting to see how he would respond to Wang Zhisheng.
But one person continued to stare intently at Wang Zhisheng!
Su Qiang.
Yesterday, after reporting for duty, he went to the dormitory, only to be toyed with by Wang Zhisheng there!
At that time, Su Qiang’s other two roommates had also arrived. Upon learning that Wang Zhisheng was from the Wang family and his father was a War God, they were quite eager to please him.
Su Qiang, having been neglected in the Su family since childhood, had developed a solitary personality. Upon entering the room, he did not proactively greet the three of them, merely introducing himself simply.
“Hello, my name is Su Qiang…”
“We know your name is Su Qiang, and we also know you are merely a two-star martial artist, not meeting the admission requirements of Donghai Martial Academy. You were able to enter Donghai Martial Academy by going through the back door!
Donghai Martial Academy requires new students to be at the three-star martial artist realm or above.
Jiang Wuming, relying on the good relationship his deceased father had with Dean Ren, shamelessly approached Dean Ren and got you a spot!”
At that moment, before Su Qiang could finish speaking, Wang Zhisheng interrupted him with a cold sneer.
Upon hearing Wang Zhisheng’s words, Su Qiang was stunned!
On one hand, he was unaware of Donghai Martial Academy’s admission requirements for students and had always believed he was admitted due to his outstanding martial arts talent.
He had even confidently told Jiang Wuming that he would work hard to practice martial arts and catch up to Jiang Wuming soon.
On the other hand, he knew Jiang Wuming’s background and that Jiang Wuming had a very good relationship with the Qin family, where the Eastern Domain War God Qin Yuanzheng resided, and even with the Martial Department.
Under such circumstances, Wang Zhisheng’s words not only shattered Su Qiang’s fantasy of becoming a martial arts powerhouse but also made him doubt the reason for his admission to Donghai Martial Academy!
It wasn’t until he inquired with the enrolling teacher this morning that he learned he had been specially recruited.
The reason for his special recruitment was that he had transformed from an ordinary martial artist to a two-star martial artist in just one month, which was extremely rare globally.
The reason the enrolling teacher at Donghai Martial Academy made this judgment was because they didn’t believe that Su Qiang, an ordinary person, would take gene drugs!
After all, due to limited medicinal ingredients, gene drugs were extremely scarce, only possessed by the world’s top martial arts powers, and administered only to martial arts prodigies!
“Fellow student, what qualifications do you think are necessary to be your teacher?”
Jiang Wuming was unaware of Wang Zhisheng’s identity and was somewhat surprised by his abrupt questioning, but he still asked politely.
“The teachers at Donghai Martial Academy are all powerhouses at the Martial Grandmaster realm or above, and you are merely an eight-star martial artist!”
Wang Zhisheng responded with a cold sneer.
“Apologies, I was not aware of this.”
Although Jiang Wuming sensed that Wang Zhisheng’s expression was not quite right, as if he was deliberately looking for trouble, he did not pay it any mind. Instead, he apologized to all the new students in front of him and explained the situation, “Dean Ren invited me to be a guest lecturer at the academy and asked if I could give you your first lesson…”
“Heh… Jiang Wuming, you truly are shameless!”
This time, before Jiang Wuming could finish speaking, Wang Zhisheng interrupted with a cold sneer, “I already made it very clear, only powerhouses at the Martial Grandmaster realm or above are qualified to be teachers at Donghai Martial Academy!
You, an eight-star martial artist, actually claim that Dean Ren personally invited you to be a guest lecturer at the academy. Your skin is thicker than the city walls!”
“Exactly, bragging without a second thought!”
“People say that a dragon father begets a dragon son, but this is too much of a disgrace to Jiang Zhan!”
…
As Wang Zhisheng’s words fell, Su Qiang’s two roommates, in order to curry favor with Wang Zhisheng, immediately chimed in.
While the other new students did not speak, their gazes towards Jiang Wuming became somewhat strange.
Earlier, Ren Xiaoyao’s speech at the opening ceremony had deeply impressed them, and they greatly admired Jiang Zhan!
But at this moment, their admiration for Jiang Zhan was silently fading.
This was because they also believed that Ren Xiaoyao would not actively invite Jiang Wuming, who was merely an eight-star martial artist, to be a teacher at Donghai Martial Academy!
“I can testify that Dean Ren invited Brother Wuming!”
Just as everyone began to question and resent Jiang Wuming’s words, Su Qiang stepped forward and said loudly.
“You still have the nerve to step out? Do you have any idea how you, a two-star martial artist, got into Donghai Martial Academy?”
Wang Zhisheng looked at Su Qiang as if he were a clown.
“I went to ask the enrolling teacher this morning. He said that although I am a two-star martial artist, my martial arts talent is good because I went from an ordinary person to a two-star martial artist in one month, so I was specially recruited…”
Su Qiang trembled with anger and loudly explained himself.
“Heh heh…”
Wang Zhisheng let out a cold laugh, interrupted Su Qiang again, and put on an exaggerated expression, “Fellow students, do you believe what Su Qiang said about transforming from an ordinary person to a two-star martial artist in a month?”
“What a joke!”
“Even the geniuses of the major martial arts powers can’t achieve this, right?”
“Exactly, if your martial arts talent is that strong, why are you only a two-star martial artist now?”
…
This time, not only Su Qiang’s two roommates but also the other new students began to doubt Su Qiang’s words.
This did not align with their understanding of martial arts!
“I…”
Su Qiang’s face turned ashen, and he trembled all over, wanting to explain again.
However, this time, Wang Zhisheng did not give him a chance to defend himself.
“Fellow student Su Qiang, it’s fine for Jiang Wuming to put on a show, but you shouldn’t. Your acting is too poor!”
Wang Zhisheng said with a playful smirk, then pointed at Jiang Wuming and said, “Originally, you were not qualified to be a teacher at Donghai Martial Academy, but you shamelessly went to Dean Ren. Dean Ren, out of consideration for your father Jiang Zhan, agreed to your request.
And you took the opportunity to get Su Qiang a spot at Donghai Martial Academy!
Your father Jiang Zhan is hailed as the pride of Donghai Martial Academy, a hero of the Martial Department. Your actions are simply tarnishing his lifelong reputation!”
“What is your name?”
Upon hearing Wang Zhisheng mention his father, Jiang Wuming frowned.
There was no unprovoked love in this world, nor was there unprovoked hate.
Wang Zhisheng’s repeated provocations against him were no accident, but a deliberate setup.
“My name is Wang Zhisheng. Are you going to hit me?”
Wang Zhisheng loudly stated his name and deliberately leaned forward, as if saying to Jiang Wuming: Try touching me with even a single finger?
“Wang Zhisheng, you’re damn enough!”
Seeing Wang Zhisheng’s unbridled demeanor, Su Qiang was instantly enraged. He clenched his fists and roared at Wang Zhisheng.
He could tolerate Wang Zhisheng toying with him, and he could tolerate Wang Zhisheng mocking him in public, but he could not tolerate Wang Zhisheng slandering Jiang Wuming in public!
“Tsk tsk, you’re clenching your fists, are you going to help Jiang Wuming hit me?”
Hearing Su Qiang’s angry rebuke and seeing Su Qiang clench his fists, Wang Zhisheng was furious, but his self-control was much greater than that of his peers. He did not retort to Su Qiang, but instead provocatively said with a cold sneer, “Since that’s the case, I’ll give you this opportunity. Let’s have a fight!
Well, I believe your martial arts talent is so strong that you can surely fight across realms, right?”
“If you want to fight, we’ll fight! I’m not afraid of you!”
Su Qiang was completely enraged at this moment and wanted to teach Wang Zhisheng a harsh lesson. Without thinking, he directly accepted the challenge.
Jiang Wuming’s brows couldn’t help but twitch.
He could see that Wang Zhisheng was deliberately provoking Su Qiang and then attacking Su Qiang under the guise of a challenge.
Su Qiang was merely a two-star martial artist, one minor realm lower than Wang Zhisheng in martial arts cultivation. Furthermore, he had only learned internal energy cultivation techniques and had not yet learned specific combat martial skills, so he was no match for Wang Zhisheng!
“Teacher Jiang, who got in through the back door, let me give you a piece of knowledge. To foster a competitive atmosphere, the academy allows students to spar and challenge each other. As long as both parties agree to the challenge, no one is allowed to interfere.
Just now, fellow student Su Qiang has agreed to challenge me, so you cannot interfere with this challenge.”
Just as Jiang Wuming frowned, Wang Zhisheng saw that Jiang Wuming wanted to stop this challenge. He immediately spoke, blocking Jiang Wuming’s words.
“Su Qiang will prove that with his martial arts talent, defeating you across realms is as easy as turning over his hand!”
Jiang Wuming narrowed his eyes.
Although he did not know why Wang Zhisheng had repeatedly provoked him, insulted his father, and even pushed his luck by taking the opportunity to target Su Qiang, he did not mind teaching Wang Zhisheng a lesson!
