Seeing Zhou Yuhu lying motionless on the ground, it was clear he had passed out. After hearing the combat instructor confirm that Zhou Yuhu was not in any serious danger and would wake up in a while, though he would still need to go to the infirmary for bandaging and rest for over a month, the situation was clear.

As for the city-wide combat tournament in three weeks, Zhou Yuhu could forget about participating.

Everyone's gaze shifted to Shi Feng. Seeing his lean, frail frame, they were stunned that he could unleash such terrifying power. They gasped, and as they recalled the things they had said to him earlier, cold sweat began to pour down their backs.

At this moment, the way the boys in the class looked at Shi Feng had completely changed. There was no more mockery or contempt, only deep-seated fear. The third-strongest person in the entire school had been knocked down in a single move; who else in the school could possibly be Shi Feng's opponent?

If Shi Feng decided to settle scores with them, the consequences would be unimaginable, yet they had actually dared to hand over Shi Feng's recommendation spot to Lin Feilong on a silver platter...

Thinking of this, the hearts of those who had been so hot-blooded earlier began to pound wildly.

Under the witness of the main brain, Shi Feng retrieved his Beidou Fitness Center membership card and the 10,000 credits. He then swept his gaze over the crowd beneath the ring. Some of the timid boys only had to glance into Shi Feng's deep, piercing eyes before their legs went weak, and they fainted on the spot, foaming at the mouth.

"Teacher, it's bad! Little Liu has fainted!"

Before the words were even finished, another boy collapsed to the ground.

The remaining boys who were still standing began to feel their scalps tingle. This Shi Feng was too terrifying; just a single look had scared two boys into fainting. However, they felt a sense of envy toward those who had passed out. If they were unconscious, they wouldn't have to endure this pressure. The surrounding air seemed to have solidified, making it difficult to breathe, and their limbs felt as heavy as if they were filled with lead.

As for the girls in the class, they were all stunned. Seeing Shi Feng look their way, they hurriedly lowered their heads, feeling completely uneasy, like frightened little rabbits being stared at by a big bad wolf.

Qin Shuyu's mouth hung wide open. She rubbed her eyes, and only after confirming it multiple times did she realize that Zhou Yuhu had indeed been knocked out by Shi Feng. Shi Feng was just too amazing; why hadn't she noticed it before?

If she could be with a man like this, her sense of security would be off the charts. Just thinking about it made her feel happy. As for money, that was even less of an issue; with Shi Feng's strength, he could easily enter the city-wide combat tournament and place in the top ten without any trouble. By then, celebrity endorsements would surely follow.

Seeing Shi Feng look over, Qin Shuyu tidied her clothes and hair, appearing charming and moving. She even exposed a deep cleavage, saying weakly, "Brother Feng, it's already noon. I know a nice restaurant with a great atmosphere and delicious food. My treat—let's go there and have a taste."

However, Shi Feng didn't pay any attention to Qin Shuyu. He was only looking for Zhao Ruoxi. Once he spotted her, he walked straight toward her, completely ignoring Qin Shuyu.

Seeing Shi Feng's cold, indifferent gaze, Qin Shuyu suddenly felt as if she had lost something important. Her heart ached as if it were being sliced by a knife, and she regretted being so blind back in high school.

"Class Monitor, this is your 10,000 credits. I will return the remaining 10,000 as soon as possible," Shi Feng said with a faint smile, handing over the money.

Zhao Ruoxi didn't take it immediately. She just blinked her beautiful, large eyes at him, as if looking at a rare animal, filled with both shock and delight.

"Are you really Shi Feng?" Zhao Ruoxi asked softly, sounding somewhat uncertain.

Throughout their four years of university, her impression of Shi Feng was that he was reticent, frequently bullied by others, and acted quite proud. He never accepted help from anyone, like a wounded little wolf licking its own wounds in solitude.

She hadn't expected that all of Shi Feng's actions today would be so different from the past. She looked at him in a completely new light; it was as if Shi Feng had grown from a little wolf into a dormant dragon. He didn't move often, but when he did, it was shocking. Even Zhou Yuhu, the third-ranked student in the school, was no match for him. If he had participated in the school-wide combat tournament, he might have already been the champion.

"Of course I'm Shi Feng. Why are you asking that, Class Monitor? Is it because I'm too handsome and don't look like my old self anymore?" Shi Feng joked. He naturally understood what Zhao Ruoxi was thinking. He had been too eye-catching today, though he hadn't intended it; the way things had developed was purely unintentional.

"Pfft, stop being so full of yourself. In my eyes, you're just barely passable," Zhao Ruoxi said, immediately snatching the money from Shi Feng's hand. A faint smile appeared on her fair, delicate face. Seeming to recall something, she said softly, "In ten days, the school is organizing a networking event, and some senior executives from well-known enterprises in Jinhai City will be attending. Aren't you looking for a job to make money? This is an opportunity; you should give it some serious thought."

Just after she finished speaking, Zhao Ruoxi thought about Shi Feng's situation and realized he couldn't possibly afford the entry fee, so she whispered, "As for the money needed to attend the networking event, I can pay it for you."

Shi Feng thought for a moment. The annual networking event organized by Jinhai University was a major affair; perhaps that person would also attend. He nodded and agreed, "Thank you, Class Monitor. I will go, but I will pay for the entry fee myself."

Zhao Ruoxi felt a little happy when she heard Shi Feng was going, but when she heard he would pay for the fee himself, she felt an indescribable sense of loss.

The crowd heard their conversation, and especially upon hearing that the class monitor, Zhao Ruoxi, had taken the initiative to invite Shi Feng and even offered to pay his entry fee, everyone thought they had misheard.

Zhao Ruoxi was a true beauty. She usually didn't dress up and wore plain clothes, but that couldn't hide her elegant, refined face and exquisite figure. If she dressed up even a little, even the school beauty might not compare to her.

Because of this, many wealthy and capable handsome men had pursued Zhao Ruoxi, but they had all been rejected one by one. Only Lin Feilong had managed to get slightly closer to her, though that only resulted in Zhao Ruoxi being a bit nicer to him. This showed just how proud Zhao Ruoxi was. Now that she was inviting Shi Feng, it was enough to drop everyone's jaws.

With such a great beauty extending an invitation, who would refuse?

Yet, Shi Feng had politely declined Zhao Ruoxi's kindness.

Lin Feilong, standing to the side, felt the anger in his heart burning brighter and brighter as he listened to their conversation.

"Shi Feng, a person should know their place. This networking event hosted by the school will feature some big shots from Jinhai City. With the way you're dressed, you might just get kicked out by security. Don't embarrass our class when that happens," Lin Feilong sneered.

"Classmate Lin Feilong, you don't need to worry about that," Shi Feng turned to look at Lin Feilong, pointing at the ring. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he sneered, "Instead, didn't you say earlier that you wanted to teach me how to behave? This is a combat arena—why don't we go up and spar? Let me learn how to behave."

"Shi Feng... you... don't go too far. I was just following the suggestions of the whole class," Lin Feilong suddenly felt a chill run through his body. He stepped back involuntarily, looking at Shi Feng with hesitation, stuttering.

To spar with Shi Feng was simply suicide. Those who hadn't participated in the combat tournament had no idea of the significance and terror behind Shi Feng's clash with Zhou Yuhu. Zhou Yuhu had been so formidable, and even he had admitted he was no match for Shi Feng, yet he had been taken down by Shi Feng in one move. This fight couldn't even be called a spar; it was a one-sided toy-like display.

"The whole class's suggestion?" Shi Feng's gaze swept over the students standing to the side, and he said coldly, "What kind of suggestion was that?"

Naturally, no one would stand on Lin Feilong's side anymore; even a fool could see how afraid Lin Feilong was of Shi Feng.

"Fine, I admit defeat. I was blind. Tell me what you want," Lin Feilong said, gritting his teeth as he looked at the unconscious Zhou Yuhu on the ring. If he sparred now, he would have no room to resist. He didn't believe Shi Feng would show mercy. If he offended Shi Feng like this, he would definitely end up in the hospital for a month, and he wouldn't even be able to participate in the city-wide combat tournament. He wasn't willing to accept that loss.

"The Beidou 5000 Credit Voucher awarded by the school," Shi Feng stated. Beidou had the best nutritionists in Jinhai City; with this voucher, he could supplement the nutrients his body needed and rapidly improve his physical fitness.

Lin Feilong took out the Beidou voucher with extreme reluctance. This thing couldn't be bought even with 10,000 credits on the outside...

After obtaining the voucher, Shi Feng left the combat arena.

Back in his rented room, Shi Feng began exercising again. When he was tired, he would look up information on God's Domain and Jinhai City online to make a comprehensive plan for his future development.

Especially regarding this school networking event, he had to prepare enough capital before it started, otherwise, his development plan would be difficult to implement.

It wasn't until after he finished dinner in the afternoon that Shi Feng lay on his bed, put on his God's Domain helmet, and began the second day of God's Domain.

PS: The framework of this book is very large. To manage it, I can only reveal it slowly. There will be no recommendation slots tomorrow. If you like this book, please add it to your library; it's fine to just let it sit for now.
