In the instructor's office on the first floor of the training building.
"Teacher Wang, Ye Li isn't someone who backs down easily. If he gets into a fight with Senior Jiang out of impulse, it'll be trouble!"
Yu Qianqian's expression was anxious as she explained the situation to the figure behind the wooden desk.
A middle-aged man dressed as a teacher sat in the chair behind the wooden desk.
It was Wang Yongfeng, the instructor for the School Team.
His strength was just one step away from Tier 3. His main job was usually responsible for the training plans and resource allocation for the School Team members.
"I understand."
After listening to Yu Qianqian's report, Wang Yongfeng nodded slightly, quickly realizing the seriousness of the situation.
Jiang Qingzhu was Linhai First High School's ace student, and a lot of effort from the school and the Jiang Family had been poured into her.
As for Ye Li, he was a talented martial artist Wang Yongfeng had only recently noticed, and he hadn't had time to provide any significant, tangible help.
It was like comparing the palm to the back of the hand; if they fought, Jiang Qingzhu might not suffer much, but Ye Li would definitely get hurt.
If he wasn't careful, serious injury wasn't impossible.
This was not the outcome Linhai First High School wanted. They were counting on Jiang Qingzhu and Ye Li to work together and achieve good results in the exchange competition and the Martial Arts Exam, bringing glory to the school!
Thinking of this, Wang Yongfeng immediately stood up and asked in a deep voice:
"How long has he been gone?"
"Not long, only about ten minutes."
Yu Qianqian glanced at the wall clock and quickly replied.
"Good, then they probably haven't started fighting yet."
Wang Yongfeng said as he walked towards the door, calling out, "Let's go, take me to see them!"
Yu Qianqian was about to nod when she heard him.
Suddenly, her phone in her pocket vibrated slightly; someone was calling her.
Yu Qianqian picked it up and was immediately surprised as she looked at Wang Yongfeng, saying:
"Teacher, Ye Li is calling me."
"Excellent!"
Wang Yongfeng visibly relaxed, smiling, "It should be fine. Go ahead and answer it."
Yu Qianqian nodded and answered the call.
"Classmate Yu."
A calm young voice came from the other end of the phone, "Are you free now?"
"Yes, I'm free." Yu Qianqian quickly asked, "How are things going with you and Senior Jiang?"
"I was just about to tell you about that."
His voice seemed a bit hesitant, "Simply put, we've reached a preliminary understanding."
"That's good then." Yu Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Ye Li's next sentence made her mood tense up again: "However, she's unconscious right now, and I need you to help me handle it again."
"Unconscious?!" Yu Qianqian exclaimed.
Wang Yongfeng, standing beside her, was also startled and asked in a low voice, "What happened?!"
"Mm, she passed out."
The calm voice on the other end of the phone confirmed.
"Senior Jiang..."
Yu Qianqian tried her best to calm herself, covered the phone, and cautiously asked, "How did she pass out?"
"I hit her."
The voice on the other end of the phone said matter-of-factly, as if slightly puzzled why Yu Qianqian would ask such a foolish question.
"What?!"
Yu Qianqian trembled all over at his words, unable to believe it.
"What's wrong?"
Wang Yongfeng was startled by her reaction and couldn't keep his voice down anymore, quickly asking.
"Is someone next to you?" Ye Li sounded a little surprised.
"Yes, there is."
Yu Qianqian took a deep breath and answered in as calm a tone as possible, "I'm in the instructor's office on the first floor right now. You... just bring Senior Jiang over directly."
"Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Li hung up the phone.
"What happened?"
Seeing Yu Qianqian sit down on the chair in a daze, Wang Yongfeng felt extremely anxious and asked worriedly.
How could a phone call turn her into this?!
Wang Yongfeng's heart was in turmoil, and he immediately thought of the worst-case scenario: "Did those two get into a fight?"
"...Yes, they fought."
Yu Qianqian came back to her senses slightly, holding her forehead, and frankly admitted his concern.
Originally, in her opinion, Jiang Qingzhu's strength far surpassed anyone on the School Team.
Even though Ye Li's strength was good, there was still a huge gap between him and Jiang Qingzhu.
That's why she rushed to ask the guidance teacher.
And now you're suddenly telling me you knocked Senior Jiang out?!
At this moment, Yu Qianqian felt dizzy and like the world had turned upside down.
"What? They really fought?!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Yongfeng quickly walked up to her and said, "What was the result? Is Ye Li badly injured?"
"This kid, after just a few days, is already fighting everywhere... sparring, isn't he afraid his body can't handle it!"
"It's one thing to spar with Shen Lian and Liu Yangde, but why did he get into a fight with that Jiang girl! She usually doesn't hold back when she fights!" Wang Yongfeng beat his chest and stomped his feet, clearly in great pain.
With the exchange competition and the Martial Arts Exam approaching, Shen Lian and Liu Yangde hadn't fully recovered from their injuries. For such a promising talent like Ye Li to get injured again, how could he not be heartbroken?
Linhai First High School's School Team was about to become a gathering of disabled people!
"Sigh, where is he now?"
After his emotions settled down a bit, Wang Yongfeng looked at Yu Qianqian and sighed, "I still have a top-grade healing Spirit Medicine here. You can give it to him later..."
Creak--
Before he could finish speaking, the office door was pushed open from the outside.
A young man in white walked in, with holes and bloodstains on his shoulders, his expression as calm as water, and he was holding a person in his arms.
Seeing Ye Li, Wang Yongfeng was stunned at first, then subconsciously stood up, his gaze falling on the person in the young man's arms.
The next second, his pupils contracted sharply.
He saw a black-haired girl with a cold demeanor and a swollen, red face, lying unconscious in Ye Li's arms with her eyes tightly closed and a pained expression.
If it wasn't Jiang Qingzhu, who else could it be?
"This, this, this!"
Wang Yongfeng's head buzzed, his mouth trembled, and he stammered for a long time without being able to form a complete sentence.
He could only look at Yu Qianqian behind him, his eyes wide open: "What's going on?!"
"As you can see, Teacher Wang."
Yu Qianqian was also incredulous, and said with difficulty, "Senior Jiang was knocked unconscious by Ye Li and needs a place to heal now."
"..."
Wang Yongfeng's body stiffened, and he slowly looked back at the young man in white by the door.
"Hello, teacher."
Ye Li nodded politely at him, then looked at Yu Qianqian: "Where should I put her?"
"The hospital, it's not far from school. Follow me." Yu Qianqian walked out of the office with legs that felt like they were filled with lead, numbly.
Ye Li followed closely behind and left the office.
Only Wang Yongfeng was left standing there blankly.
Tick--
Tock--
The sound of the wall clock's pendulum was as clear as thunder in his ears, making his heart clench repeatedly.
That was Jiang Qingzhu.
She was the most talented Martial Science Student at Linhai First High School in nearly twenty years!
She had a cold and serious personality. In the past, let alone letting others touch her, ordinary Martial Science Students couldn't even exchange more than a few words with her.
She was the kind of girl who, even when exhausted from training, would grit her teeth and return to the training room on her own.
Yet now, she was lying unconscious in someone else's arms, her face swollen and red, clearly having suffered a heavy blow to the head.
For a martial artist, being struck in a weak spot like this during a fight already meant defeat.
In other words, this young man in white, who had only joined the School Team a couple of days ago, had defeated their ace genius... How could Wang Yongfeng believe this!
"Ye Li..."
As he muttered the name, Wang Yongfeng's breathing grew heavy, his heart pounding.
For the past three years, the opponent had been unknown. Now, in a single stroke, they had taken down Linhai First High School's School Team!
Such terrifying composure, such outrageously outstanding talent!
A genius, undoubtedly a genius!
"Hahaha—"
Wang Yongfeng sank onto the sofa, one hand supporting his forehead, and burst into laughter.
"Ye Li, you brat, you're a damn monster!"
With a freak like this on their side, what were the other schools even playing for?
The exchange competition is secured!
The Martial Arts Exam is secured too!!
