"Did you hear? Xing Zhen from Leize Team got defeated, and by a freshman this year." "No way, that Xing Zhen the Bear Man actually got defeated?" "It seems to be Yang Ze, a first-year student."
"However, I heard that Yang Ze's victory over Xing Zhen also had an element of luck. Apparently, Xing Zhen somehow ran into Yang Ze's fist." "Is that so?"
The news about the school team spread quickly, shocking the entire Leize Academy.
It should be noted that Xing Zhen was a formal member of the Leize Team, and he was known for his arrogance and was a local tyrant at the Leize Martial Soul Academy. The news of his beating spread throughout the academy immediately, and many people were gloating.
The other members of Leize Team were also curious. "Someone actually beat up Xing Zhen? Who is this guy, and he's so strong?"
"I heard it was a freshman this year. Xing Zhen is still unconscious, but according to Zhang Xiang from Team One, that freshman completely saw through Xing Zhen's moves and easily defeated Xing 857 Zhen," said Du Le, a member of Leize Team.
"Oh, that's quite an achievement," said Jiang Qin, captain of the Leize Team.
"So, Captain, should we recruit him into the team?" Du Le asked.
"Go and make contact with him, test his abilities. If he's really as good as the rumors say, then recruit him into the Leize Team," Jiang Qin said. "Understood."
The matter was the talk of the school, but Zesi didn't care and continued to go to school every morning and go home to train in the afternoon.
After finishing his classes that morning, Zesi was about to go home when Zesi suddenly blocked his way.
"You must be Yang Ze?" the newcomer asked with a Yang Ze.
"Shouldn't you give me your name before asking others?" Zesi said casually. "Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Du Le, a member of Leize Team." "What do you need me for?" Zesi asked. "I heard you beat up Xing Zhen from our team?" "What, are you getting revenge for him?" "I have no connection with Xing Zhen. You beat him up, that's fine, it has nothing to do with me. But since you defeated Xing Zhen, the captain asked me to test you. If you pass, you can Leize Team."
"No interest."
Du Le was taken aback by Zesi's words.
I didn't expect Zesi to refuse so readily.
This is a Martial Soul team that can participate in the Martial Soul League.
The Martial Soul League is the dream competition for all Martial Soul Masters. Once promoted from Rank B to Rank A, they can even compete for rankings such as the Hundred Battles Ranking and the Rising Stars Ranking.
Even a Rank B character can garner significant attention. For Martial Soul Master, attention can increase the connection between the Martial Soul Master and their Martial Soul.
To everyone's surprise, Zesi refused without the slightest hesitation.
"Oh, really? Well, I'm sorry to have bothered you." Du Le smiled and left without a second thought.
Whether Zesi joins the Martial Soul Master team or not is none of his business.
He was merely relaying what the captain had said.
Zesi naturally didn't care, and the matter was originally supposed to end there. However, unexpectedly Zesi, on the day Zesi was about to go back, someone blocked his way.
"So you're Yang Ze, the one who defeated Xing Zhen?" the newcomer asked with a disdainful expression.
"If no other Yang Ze can defeat him, then it's me."
"My name is Zhou Ping. Kid, I heard you're pretty arrogant. Not only did you beat up one of our people, but you also refused the captain's offer to join the team."
"I'm just not interested."
"Kid, I don't care if you're interested or not. Since you're not joining our team, then hitting one of our players is tantamount to provoking us. Although I'm annoyed by that good-for-nothing Xing Zhen, how can I save face if an outsider, especially a newbie, hits one of my teammates?"
"So what?"
"They naturally fought back."
As he spoke, Zhou Ping charged rapidly toward Zesi.
Zhou Ping, whose body was radiating the light of his Martial Soul, moved with incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Zesi.
The fists kept attacking Zesi.
Zhou Ping's fighting style differs from the straightforward fighting style of the Pirate King World; it incorporates many sophisticated techniques.
However, hidden dangers lurk within the seemingly ingenious moves.
An ordinary person would quickly fall into his trap under the influence of this ingenious and deadly set of moves, leaving them defenseless. Zhou Ping's moves would become increasingly powerful, eventually overwhelming his opponent. However, in Zesi's eyes, all of Zhou Ping's moves were flaws.
He stood still, effortlessly dodging all of Zhou Ping's attacks.
The next moment, Zesi took a step forward and instantly appeared behind Zhou Ping, striking Zhou Ping on the back of the head.
Zhou Ping instantly lost consciousness and collapsed to the ground.
"Come out. You've been looking for so long, haven't you had enough?" Zesi ignored the fallen Zhou Ping and instead looked towards a secluded spot, saying this.
"As expected, your strength is not simple. I just don't know why Martial Soul Master with your strength would come to a third-rate Martial Soul Academy like Lei Ze." As he said this, several people emerged from the hidden place.
Zesi recognized a few of them, including Xing Zhen the Bear Man and Du Le, who had contacted him before.
And in their center Zesi was a young man wearing glasses.
