Even Ants Have a Temper

"That guy's name is Gao Ziyong. I was in the same class as him in high school. His current Biological Rank should be Ordinary Tier 3."

"That cute girl with pigtails is the daughter of my mom's colleague. Her Biological Rank is only ordinary Tier 2, so she's probably the weakest in the Talent Class."

"Comrades of Evolution Class 8, Gao Ziyong is your class to deal with. Any questions?"

"No problem, I guarantee it'll be completely shredded!"

"Leave the one with the pigtails to me, I can take her down by myself!"

After deciding to gang up on the freshmen in the Talent Class, the freshmen in the Ordinary Class all began to take action.

Everyone worked together, each fulfilling their assigned duties.

Anyone who knows a freshman in the Talent Class will proactively share their information, saying things like how well so-and-so in the Talent Class did on the college entrance exam and how capable they are.

Those with leadership qualities, upon hearing this, immediately began to mobilize their forces, specifically allocating a certain number of troops to deal with Talent Class.

Looking at the scene before him, Lin Zichen said to Shen Qinghan beside him:

"This scene looks a bit like players teaming up to fight a big boss in a game. We, the Ordinary Class, are the players, and you, the Talent Class, are the big boss."

Shen Qinghan tiptoed and whispered in his ear, "Right now, it's true that the Ordinary Class are teaming up to fight the Talent Class boss, but in a little while, it'll probably be the Talent Class teaming up to fight the boss—you, the super big boss."

Shen Qinghan's voice sounded slightly excited as she said this.

She couldn't wait to see Lin Zichen single-handedly defeat the entire Talent Class, and she desperately wanted to see Lin Zichen perform a miracle in front of everyone, shocking the entire audience.

As I was thinking, I suddenly felt an urge to urinate.

Shen Qinghan said to Lin Zichen, "Xiao Chen, I'm going to the restroom, I'll be right back."

After saying that, she scurried towards the restroom, her legs pressed together.

She jogged back in less than three minutes.

Just as she was about to reach Lin Zichen's side.

A girl from Ordinary Class, with her hair in a bun, stopped her and said, "You're from the Talent Class, go back to your Talent Class and don't come to our Ordinary Class!"

"I am neutral."

Shen Qinghan explained weakly.

Although she has become a top genius and has become much more confident, her years of inferiority and introversion make her instinctively appear somewhat timid when facing a menacing stranger.

"Who cares if you're neutral or not? As long as you're from the Talent Class, you're now on the opposite side!"

The girl with the bun hairstyle said somewhat aggressively.

Upon seeing this, Lin Zichen immediately went over to speak up for Shen Qinghan, smiling and saying, "She's my childhood sweetheart, let her in, I want to say a few words to her."

"Ah, oh, okay."

Facing the handsome and dashing Lin Zichen, the girl with the bun hairstyle stammered, feeling both nervous and excited.

Lin Zichen's looks are incredibly attractive to girls his age; very few can resist them.

Seeing that the girl had moved aside, Shen Qinghan quickly went to Lin Zichen's side.

Lin Zichen led Shen Qinghan aside and said to her:

"I feel it would be better for you to go back to the Talent Class. You're a freshman in the Talent Class, so you should have a sense of class honor, especially at the beginning of the semester, otherwise you might get ostracized."

But I want to stay by your side...

"I'd like to, but it's really not suitable."

"Oh well..."

Shen Qinghan was a little reluctant, but she still chose to obediently listen.

She thought about it and realized that Lin Zichen was right.

It's only the beginning of the semester, so it's important to have a sense of class honor to avoid being ostracized.

Having figured this out, Shen Qinghan quickly returned to the Talent Class.

After she returned to her position, all 2,959 freshmen in the Ordinary Class and 50 freshmen in the Talent Class stood on either side of the central martial Martial Platform, their camps clearly divided.

Soon after, the stadium's loudspeakers started broadcasting a countdown.

"Ten seconds until the trial begins!"

"10!"

"9!"

"8!"

"7..."

As the countdown continued, all the new students fell silent.

Adrenaline levels surged.

My heart is beating faster and faster.

A feeling of tension suddenly filled my entire body.

"6!"

"5!"

"4..."

As the countdown drew ever closer to the start of the trial, many freshmen with weaker mental fortitude began to feel their legs go weak and their hands tremble slightly.

Especially those freshmen in the Talent Class whose physical strength is relatively low and who rely entirely on Gene Fusion and compatibility to improve.

Although they are freshmen in the Talent Class, their Biological Rank is only ordinary Tier 2, the same as most freshmen in the Ordinary Class.

Next, they will face dozens or even hundreds of Ordinary Class freshmen with the same combat strength as themselves. Being ganged up on by these Ordinary Class freshmen with similar combat strength is bound to make their legs weak.

Conversely, super geniuses like Li Moyu and Ma Xiwei, whose physical strength far surpasses that of their peers, are all brimming with fighting spirit, eager to experience the crushing feeling of being able to defeat a thousand men single-handedly.

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"The trial has officially begun!"

At the very moment that final broadcast announcement rang out.

The freshmen from the Ordinary Class surged towards the freshmen from the Talent Class like a tidal wave.

"Charge! Everyone! Crush the Talent Class!"

"A Talent Class has stepped onto the Martial Platform! It's Gao Ziyong, whose Biological Rank is at the Tier 3 of the ordinary level! All members of Evolution Class 6, charge! Knock him off the Martial Platform!"

"Mechanics Class 2, 3, and 4! Our target is Zhao Chuying! Don't hold back just because she's a girl! Give her your all and beat her up!"

Amidst shouts filled with fighting spirit.

The freshmen in the Ordinary Class, who had a numerical advantage, all rushed into the ranks of the Talent Class, clearly targeting the freshmen in the Talent Class.

At first, the scene was orderly.

However, because there were so many people, and many of the new students in the Talent Class were running around trying to avoid being ganged up on, the situation became very difficult.

In a matter of moments, the whole scene descended into chaos.

"Stop fighting! I surrender! I surrender!"

A female freshman in the Talent Class, who was in the Tier 2 of the ordinary class, was surrounded by more than ten female freshmen from the Ordinary Class. She was pinned to the ground and beaten, while she kept begging for mercy.

Those dozen or so female freshmen in the Ordinary Class were considered to have relatively good martial arts ethics.

Upon seeing the target shouting surrender, they immediately stopped, refusing to strike again.

"Fuck you! All you do is gang up on the weak, what kind of skill is that? If you've got the guts, fight me one-on-one!"

The Talent Class male freshman named Gao Ziyong, whose Biological Rank was as high as the ordinary Tier 3, was surrounded and attacked by the entire class of Evolution Class 6 on the Martial Platform, and he was so anxious that he cursed loudly.

However, no one was willing to fight him one-on-one; they all chose to gang up on him.

"Stop! Don't run! Is Favored Child of Heaven in the Talent Class know how to do is run away? You coward!"

Shen Qinghan, who is physically weak, was targeted by more than a dozen female freshmen from Ordinary Class and was chased all over the gymnasium by them.

She wasn't particularly fast, but with her silky footwork, she managed to evade the clutches of these female freshmen from the Ordinary Class every time, much to their annoyance and prompting them to grumble and curse.

On the other hand, Lin Zichen originally planned to jump onto the Martial Platform as the boss and defend the arena at the very beginning of the trial, easily winning the title of Newcomer King and obtaining a 100- Credit reward.

Seeing how energetic the freshmen in the Ordinary Class were, we decided to let them perform first and not steal their hard-won limelight.

After all, they've devised tactics, arranged troops, and done all that; it's time to let others show their skills.

Bored, Lin Zichen kept looking around to watch the show.

Soon, his gaze fell on Shen Qinghan.

I saw Shen Qinghan being chased and beaten by a group of people.

However, he did not offer any assistance; he simply watched quietly.

He felt that this was a necessary training for Shen Qinghan as an Evolution Student, and that helping her would do more harm than good.

"Good footwork; all these years of training haven't been in vain."

Seeing that Shen Qinghan had been chased for almost ten minutes without being caught by the group of female freshmen from the Ordinary Class, and that she had darted in and out of the crowd like an eel with incredibly smooth movements, Lin Zichen couldn't help but admire her.

However, less than three seconds after she gave her praise, Shen Qinghan was caught.

Fortunately, she wasn't very proud and surrendered the moment she was caught, thus avoiding a beating.

His gaze shifted away from Shen Qinghan.

Lin Zichen looked around the entire stadium.

The scene that met my eyes was one of the Talent Class students being ganged up on and brutally beaten.

The reason for this one-sided situation is that none of the top fighters in the Talent Class have made a move.

Led by Li Moyu and Ma Xiwei, the top combatants of the Talent Class, a total of 12 people, were all standing on the second-floor corridor, looking down at the battlefield below.

Before the trial even began.

These 12 people then leaped high onto the second-floor corridor, reaching the same height as a group of school leaders on the opposite corridor.

This action clearly demonstrates that they have distanced themselves from the freshmen and are trying to be as superior as the school leaders on the other side.

Lin Zichen glanced at the 12 top combatants from the Talent Class on the second-floor corridor, activated his Biological Attribute [Danger Perception], and sensed the Biological Rank of these 12 people.

The strongest Li Moyu and Ma Xiwei, both have Biological Rank as high as the Ordinary Tier 5.

The remaining 10 people all had Biological Rank of at Ordinary Tier 4.

Li Moyu, with her keen senses, noticed that Lin Zichen was observing them from below. She smiled slightly and invited Lin Zichen, "Lin Zichen, why don't you come up and watch the battle together?"

Lin Zichen smiled and politely declined, "No need, I'll be fine downstairs."

About twenty minutes later.

Under the onslaught of nearly 3,000 Ordinary Class freshmen, except for the 12 people in the second-floor corridor, the Talent Class freshmen below were completely defeated.

The victorious freshmen from the Ordinary Class all gathered around the twelve people in the second-floor corridor and shouted loudly at them:

"Get down!"

"Come down and face your death!"

"Speed!"

The freshmen in the Ordinary Class, who had just won a perfect victory, were now incredibly arrogant, thinking that the Talent Class was nothing special.

They can't wait to defeat the top 12 students from the Talent Class and fight for the honor of the Ordinary Class.

"Ha, they think they can bully others just because they have more people. They get all cocky after beating a few weaklings. Little do they know that ants are just ants, and no matter how many there are, they can't bite an elephant."

On the second-floor corridor, a Big Guy, two meters tall, looked down at the shouting freshmen from the Ordinary Class below, his eyes full of disdain.

After saying that, he jumped down from the second-floor corridor, landing with a thud on the ground and leaving a noticeable shoe dent in the wooden floor.

He was too heavy; the ordinary wooden floor simply couldn't withstand his impact.

"Don't you all like to bully the weak with numbers?"

"Come on, I'll stand right here, feel free to attack me."

"So that you will realize your own weakness."

The Big Guy looked calmly at the freshmen from the Ordinary Class in front of him, his disdainful tone infuriating.

Seeing his massive body, as large as a mountain, the freshmen from the Ordinary Class standing at the front were immediately filled with fear and instinctively took a few steps back.

But soon, someone in the crowd shouted, trying to boost morale:

"We outnumber him, what are we afraid of? If we all rush in and each throw a punch, we can knock him to the ground and make him beg for mercy!"

"That's right, we outnumber them, let's take them down!"

"Charge! Get him!"

The freshmen in the Ordinary Class were rekindled in their fighting spirit and swarmed towards the Big Guy, determined to use their numerical advantage to defeat him.

Faced with a large number of freshmen from the Ordinary Class rushing towards him, the Big Guy didn't panic at all. He simply raised his leg and kicked the first few people flying.

The boy who was kicked squarely flew more than three meters into the air before crashing heavily to the ground with a thud. He was curled up on the ground in pain and couldn't get up, his face contorted in agony.

"Blood! He vomited blood!"

Some people noticed blood seeping from the boy's mouth and were quite frightened, their faces filled with panic.

Being kicked to the point of vomiting blood must mean he has internal injuries!

Soon, medical personnel who had been stationed at the scene brought over a stretcher and carried the boy who was vomiting blood away to treat his injuries.

This scene startled many freshmen in the Ordinary Class, causing them to back away.

She dared not approach the Big Guy any further, fearing she would be kicked and cough up blood herself.

Everyone was just here to participate in a trial; no one expected to be seriously injured.

At that moment, the situation instantly reversed.

The freshmen in the Ordinary Class originally thought they could use their numerical advantage to defeat everyone in the Talent Class.

However, in retrospect, this was a serious underestimation of the strength of the top combatants in the Talent Class.

The gap is so large that it cannot be bridged by simply increasing numbers.

"We're all classmates, did you have to hit me so hard?!"

A freshman from Ordinary Class looked at the Big Guy with dissatisfaction and rebuked him for this.

The Big Guy laughed and said:

"An ant tries its best to bite an elephant, but can't bite it. The elephant gets annoyed and gently touches the ant, breaking its leg. Then the ant condemns the elephant for being cruel. Don't you think that's hilarious?"

His constant use of the term "ant" infuriated the freshmen in the Ordinary Class.

They were indeed from Ordinary Class, but the fact that they were able to get into Shanhai University means that each of them was Favored Child of Heaven in their high school.

Yet, at this moment, they are being scorned like this.

This is absolutely intolerable!

Despite their inability to tolerate it, they still dared not step forward.

"Lin Zichen, this guy is too arrogant! He keeps calling us Ordinary Class ants and insulting us like that. Let's go and take him down!"

Soon, a freshman from Ordinary Class shouted.

It's okay if they can't beat the Big Guy, as long as Lin Zichen can!

Lin Zichen is the runner-up in Nanjiang Province, and his Physical Fitness Test Data is the best in the province. He can definitely compete with this Big Guy in the Talent Class, and might even beat him!
