The first WeChat moment was posted by Teacher Yang Xi.
"My body feels so comfortable all afternoon. Turns out, life is truly beautiful."
Seeing Teacher Yang Xi's post, Zhou Hong smiled and gave it a small red heart.
The second post was from Liu Hua.
"Zhou Hong has gone to university, and I'm all alone here working as a security guard. It's so boring."
Seeing Liu Hua's post, Zhou Hong chuckled and commented, "I'll transfer you in someday to study with me."
Liu Hua, though a friend of the original owner of this body, was quite likable to Zhou Hong. He'd mention it to the department head later and have him transferred in, so he'd have some company.
Just as Zhou Hong was about to continue scrolling through his WeChat moments, Wu Jinbin, sitting in front of him, turned back in a hurry and said, "Zhou Hong, someone wants to meet you on the rooftop."
"Who?" Zhou Hong frowned.
"Qiu Minghao, from the third-year Tourism Management major."
"I don't know him. Why would he want to meet me on the rooftop?" Zhou Hong was baffled.
"He probably wants to beat you up."
Zhou Hong's brow furrowed.
"How do you know?"
"He posted on the university app forum, saying you're too arrogant. You've only been here one day in the School of Economics, and you're already so cocky. He wants to meet you on the rooftop."
"What's this Qiu Minghao about? If he knows I'm so cocky, why does he dare to challenge me?"
"Perhaps he wants to establish his authority with you. This Qiu Minghao is the class bully in the third-year Tourism Management major. Among the over thirty classes from first to fourth year in our School of Economics, he's ranked among the top three bullies. He's well-known, and no one dares to refuse him."
"I'm not going." Zhou Hong found it too tiresome. He had just dealt with Guo Jinhui, and now Qiu Minghao popped up. He came here to study, not to get entangled with thugs endlessly.
Zhou Hong didn't realize that ever since he beat up Guo Jinhui, he had already entered this circle. Even if he didn't pay attention to others, others would pay attention to him. Getting out of this wouldn't be so easy.
"If you don't go, he'll definitely come to the classroom," Wu Jinbin said.
"Damn it, then I'll go meet him. It's as if I'm afraid of him." Zhou Hong was getting a little angry. Anyway, classes were too boring, and a breath of fresh air on the rooftop wouldn't be bad.
At this moment, on the rooftop of the teaching building, a young man stood smoking. Behind him followed three or four burly young men, who were holding a large fishing net.
"Brother Hao, do you think this Zhou Hong will actually come up?" one of the youths asked.
"It would be best if he comes. If not, it doesn't matter. My goal is to establish my authority, and now that the post is out, many students and teachers at Jinzhou University have seen it," the young man said, exhaling a ring of smoke.
"Yes, Brother Hao. In the School of Economics, you've always been suppressed by Wang Zhicheng and Kang Bing Tian. If you don't establish your authority soon, many students and teachers in the School of Economics will forget about you, the number three figure. Taking down this Zhou Hong today to establish your authority is very necessary," another follower said.
"Hmph, daring to be so cocky on his first day. If I don't make an example of him, who else will?" Qiu Minghao snorted slightly.
Just then, Zhou Hong appeared at the small door leading to the rooftop.
"Who wants to make an example of me?" Zhou Hong walked out and asked.
Qiu Minghao and his followers immediately looked towards Zhou Hong.
"Heh heh, you must be the new student from the second-year accounting class," Qiu Minghao said with a cold smile. The followers behind him immediately picked up their fishing nets, preparing for action.
"Yes, I am Zhou Hong."
"I saw your video where you severely dealt with Guo Jinhui from your second-year class. Is that right?"
"That's right."
"I'll give you two choices. First, you post on the campus forum saying: 'Brother Hao, I didn't expect to disturb you. I'm extremely sorry. Tonight, I've booked seven or eight tables at a five-star hotel. I hope Brother Hao...' "
"I choose the second one." Before Qiu Minghao could finish, Zhou Hong quickly shouted, declaring he wanted the second option.
Qiu Minghao's brow furrowed. He knew this newcomer was cocky, but he didn't expect him to be this cocky. He interrupted Qiu Minghao before he even finished his first option, claiming he wanted the second.
"Very good, you are indeed cocky. Today, I will make an example of you in the School of Economics." Qiu Minghao's gaze turned cold.
"Hahaha, I couldn't ask for more." Zhou Hong laughed heartily.
"Go!" Qiu Minghao signaled to the followers beside him.
Those followers were not useless either. Grabbing a fishing net, they charged forward. They had trained regularly, so ordinary students were no match for them. This was why Qiu Minghao dared to challenge Zhou Hong; he was confident in his fishing net formation.
The next second, Qiu Minghao's followers, holding the fishing net, rushed forward.
Zhou Hong didn't dodge. He let them throw the fishing net over him.
Almost instantly, Zhou Hong was trapped by the fishing net.
"Brother Hao, it was effortless," one of the followers said with a laugh.
"Hahaha, seeing how arrogant he sounded earlier, I was actually worried we might have bitten off more than we could chew. I didn't expect it to be so easy to deal with him," Qiu Minghao roared with laughter.
"Is that so?" At this moment, Zhou Hong's voice sounded from behind Qiu Minghao.
"Who!" Qiu Minghao quickly turned around and was shocked to find Zhou Hong standing behind him.
"Ah." His followers were also stunned. They quickly pulled up the fishing net and found nothing.
"This is impossible. We clearly trapped him just now. Our fishing net formation, even a first-tier low-level martial artist might not be able to break free so quickly," the followers said, their faces filled with disbelief and confusion.
Zhou Hong heard them mention "low-level martial artist" and didn't know what it meant. He guessed it was the martial cultivation realm in this world.
"Everyone, it's my turn now," Zhou Hong said. With a palm strike, he hit Qiu Minghao on the neck before the latter could react.
Qiu Minghao slumped to the ground powerlessly.
The followers frantically grabbed the fishing net again and charged at Zhou Hong.
"Bang bang bang." Zhou Hong easily struck them down to the ground.
"How can you be so powerful?" Qiu Minghao and the others looked at Zhou Hong in disbelief, feeling that Zhou Hong's strength was even greater than the top two bullies in the School of Economics.
"With your amateur skills, you dared to try and establish your authority with me. Since that's the case, I won't hold back," Zhou Hong said. He then picked up the fishing net, wrapped Qiu Minghao and his followers in it, and with a mighty throw, flung them off the rooftop.
"Ahhhhh!" Feeling the sensation of falling, Qiu Minghao and the others screamed in terror.
This pig-slaughtering shriek startled many students and teachers in the teaching building who were attending classes.
After falling a few meters, Zhou Hong pulled the fishing net, otherwise, they would have plummeted to the first floor.
