Challenge, Murder
After arriving at the square, Wang Feng and Hu Liena found a corner and sat down. Wang Feng immediately sat down to meditate, but Hu Liena clearly didn't want him to cultivate in peace and kept talking beside him.
"You're Wang Feng?"
Suddenly someone interrupted Hu Liena.
Hu Liena turned her head and glared at them, looking at the group of guys, none of whom she recognized.
Wang Feng also looked over and asked with a smile, "That's me. What's up?"
Wang Feng, I challenge you!
The man standing at the front of the group pointed at Wang Feng and spoke as if he were a newcomer and didn't know him.
"You want to challenge me? What's so great about me? Shouldn't you be challenging the number one on the Holy Ranking?"
"This is my business, Wang Feng. Do you dare to accept the challenge? If I defeat you, then your ranking on the Holy Ranking will be mine."
You're probably not qualified to challenge me.
You say I'm not qualified? Well, I'll see!
The man felt slighted and became angry, so he attacked immediately.
"Get out of here!"
Hu Liena gave a cold shout and, before Wang Feng could get up, she immediately stepped in to stop him, grabbing his arm and striking him in the chest with her other hand.
With a muffled thud, the man was thrown backward uncontrollably, taking more than ten steps before stopping, his face extremely pale.
"You can't even get past me, yet you want to challenge my senior brother? Get the hell out of here!" Hu Liena shouted coldly, then turned to look at Wang Feng and laughed.
The man stared intently at Wang Feng and Hu Liena, but ultimately dared not make a move and could only leave.
"Senior brother, these guys are really courting death, coming to challenge you. They must not know your reputation in the academy. That's why you're always running around outside. You'd better stay in the academy from now on. But if these guys knew your fearsome reputation, I wonder if they would come begging for your forgiveness."
"It's just about interests, not a life-or-death battle. Besides, this is the academy, and they haven't provoked me, so why should they be afraid of me?"
Wang Feng chuckled lightly, having already seen everything.
Someone challenged me as soon as I left the dorm. What a coincidence! It seems someone really couldn't sit still and wanted to see if my injury had healed.
Everything unfolded exactly as he had predicted. In the following days, he was frequently challenged, and some even came to his dormitory to find him. Among them were members of the Lower Four Sects, which made Wang Feng even more convinced that someone was deliberately sabotaging him behind the scenes. However, Wang Feng ignored these guys.
In one corner of the square, a group of people gathered together, led by Yu Tianheng.
The guys gathered here are all people who have come to challenge Wang Feng these past few days, but unfortunately, none of them have succeeded.
"Young Master Yu, we went to find Wang Feng as you instructed, but he just won't accept it, and there's nothing we can do!"
"That's right! Even if we force our way in, there's always someone who'll sabotage things."
"I know, but you can't give up. You have to keep harassing him; he definitely won't sit still."
"That's not good! Wang Feng is the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall. If he gets angry, we'll be killed."
"Exactly, we don't want to risk our lives."
"Young Master Yu, you should find someone else for this! I can't do it again. If my father finds out about this, I'll be in big trouble."
For several days, they had begun to back down. Fighting the Spirit Hall was too dangerous; they didn't have a powerful background like Yu Tianheng.
Yu Tianheng's face darkened as he looked at the group and said, "Think carefully. If you give up now, the benefits I promised you will be void."
"Young Master Yu, this..."
"That's not right! Even though we didn't succeed, we still did exactly what you said!"
"That's right, Young Master Yu. If you're going to do this, then we'll have no choice but to tell Wang Feng about what you arranged for us. We don't want Wang Feng to hold a grudge against us forever."
"Are you threatening me?"
Yu Tianheng's eyes turned cold as he stared intently at the man.
Unfortunately, the man was not afraid at all and laughed, "Young Master Yu, I'm not threatening you. Everyone knows that Wang Feng is the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, and we can't afford to offend him. Now that we've already offended him, if we can't resolve this enmity, the Spirit Hall will retaliate and we'll become a scourge to our sect."
"You're right, the Spirit Hall's influence is spread all over the continent, we really can't afford to provoke them!"
Others echoed this sentiment, even though they knew Yu Tianheng was the future patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, they were not afraid of him.
"Fine! You're afraid of provoking the Spirit Hall, then you're not afraid of provoking my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"
The group of people looked at Yu Tianheng, smiled, and remained silent, but their meaning was clear.
Compared to the Spirit Hall, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan does not have as much of a deterrent effect.
"Alright, alright." Yu Tianheng nodded with a smile, then suddenly his eyes turned cold, and he glared at the group, shouting angrily, "Get out!"
"Snort!"
The group glanced at Yu Tianheng disdainfully before turning and leaving.
The others didn't leave; they remained where they were.
Yu Tianheng kept watching the departing group until they disappeared before turning back to the remaining people with a smile and continuing to give instructions.
Several days later, a major incident suddenly broke out within the academy: several inner court students had been murdered outside the academy.
Most importantly, these people are all students from the Lower Four Sects, not students from poor backgrounds, so the problem suddenly became serious.
The academy has sent many people to investigate the matter, and although there has been no progress yet, almost everyone is pointing the finger at Wang Feng, because the victims had all challenged him.
In an instant, the entire inner courtyard was filled with panic, and some people even secretly spread rumors that Wang Feng was a perverted man who liked to kill.
Most of the students are simple-minded and do not have a strong family background, so there is less conflict and they will not develop any meticulous thoughts. In addition, Wang Feng has already killed two members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, which is a fact.
Therefore, many students unconsciously developed a fear of the name Wang Feng, and the management, especially the people from the Lower Four Sects, even demanded that Yu Xiaogang forcibly detain Wang Feng.
Although they knew that Wang Feng alone couldn't have done it so cleanly without leaving a trace, there were two Titled Douluo Wang Feng him.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan added fuel to the fire, making it almost impossible for Yu Xiaogang to breathe, and even causing some students to drop out of the academy.
Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to take action against Wang Feng, but he dared not detain Wang Feng. He could only interrogate him again and again, but unfortunately, no matter how he investigated, it was a fact that Wang Feng had never left.
Wang Feng stood by the window, looking at the crowd gathered in the square. Every now and then, he would glance towards the dormitory building, his gaze intentionally or unintentionally sweeping towards his room.
They couldn't see inside from the outside, so they couldn't see that Wang Feng was looking at them.
I didn't want to say this, but I felt I should. Ever since the Holy Academy appeared, the plot has actually changed. So don't worry about it not matching the original plot or timeline issues. It's definitely not going to match. I didn't intend for it to match either, otherwise I would have just followed the original timeline. I deliberately changed it, including some age-related issues.
