Looking at the bustling crowd, Ye Haoran quickly locked onto his target.
A boy wearing gold-rimmed glasses was walking down the stairs, talking and laughing. His face was full of smiles.
However, a trace of gloominess would occasionally flash across his eyes. It was Zhao Hui.
"Brother Zhao, what if that madman from Class 5 comes to cause trouble again during the combat exam this afternoon? That madman is full of brute force, I can't beat him without a contract spirit," One of his underlings said.
"What's there to be afraid of? 'Win people over with virtue', understand? I've already prepared everything."
Zhao Hui smiled hypocritically as if everything was within his control, and he was all set to go.
Ever since he was killed by Ye Haoran offline last time, he had realized that it was a stupid move for a spiritualist to fight without a contract spirit.
Therefore, he brought the contract spirit with him at all times. As long as Ye Haoran dared to come, he would make him go back on all fours.
Ye Haoran's eyelids twitched. This b*stard was smiling with a sinister look and was probably thinking of some dirty tricks.
Seeing that they were about to come over, Ye Haoran clenched the hemp rope tightly, ready to give justice to the heavens.
Suddenly, the system's options appeared.
[Option 1: Send Zhao Hui to the hospital and make him unable to attend the afternoon exam. Reward: Earn the title 'Conquer everything with brute force', increase strength by 5%.]
[Option 2: Lightly injure Zhao Hui and then defeat him in the combat exam. Reward: Strength potion +2.]
[Option 3: Give up and leave immediately. Reward: Earn the title 'Cowardly escapee', increase escape speed by 10%.]
Ye Haoran raised his eyebrows. He had wanted to give him a beating.
But now it seemed that beating him up first and then defeating him again in the afternoon exam would benefit him the most.
Ye Haoran quietly put away the hemp rope and walked forward quickly.
"What?"
The space in front of Zhao Hui turned dark, and when he raised his head, Ye Haoran was already standing in front of him.
"What are you doing?" Zhao Hui was confused. Could it be that Zhao Jinlong was exposed?
"I want to arrange a battle with you for the combat class in the afternoon," Ye Haoran said directly.
"Are you sure? I'm alright with it." Zhao Hui sneered in his heart and thought to himself, "I will send you to the hospital in the afternoon so that you can't come for the exam."
"Also, I don't like the look of you, so I'll beat you up first." After saying that, Ye Haoran directly launched a sneak attack and smashed his fist forward.
"Bang!"
Zhao Hui couldn't dodge in time and his glasses broke in an instant. His body was sent flying and he crashed onto the ground.
"What the f*ck, why did he attack after just saying a sentence?" Zhao Hui was dumbfounded.
"You f*cking....." Zhao Hui shook his head. He saw stars in front of his eyes and the world began to spin.
Ye Haoran was originally strong, and after consuming the potions given by the system, he became even stronger. Without the help of the contract spirit, Zhao Hui would not be able to withstand his attack.
A few underlings hurriedly helped Zhao Hui up, but when they looked up, Ye Haoran had long disappeared.
"F*ck!"
Zhao Hui clenched his fists and his expression turned dark.
He had to make Ye Haoran pay for what he did to him during the combat exam this afternoon.
...
Ye Haoran hummed a little tune as he returned home. Mr. Ye only raised his head to take a glance before turning off his phone.
Ye Haoran was puzzled.
Mrs. Ye walked over with a plate of spare ribs and said, "Son, come over and eat. Don't bother about your father."
After saying that, Mrs. Ye turned around and switched her phone to flight mode.
Ye Haoran continued to give a puzzled look.
Mr. Ye sighed and said, "It's not that I'm suspecting you. If you're so happy, it means that someone is suffering. I don't want to hear your teacher complaining about you."
Ye Haoran didn't pursue the topic any further and asked, "Where's my little goldfish?"
"In the pot," Mr. Ye replied.
Ye Haoran was shocked and rushed to the kitchen with great speed. He found the goldfish in the vegetable basin.
Fortunately, he came back early. Otherwise, his goldfish would become dinner for the family.
Ye Haoran reached into the vegetable basin and took the goldfish out, then put it back into the beast taming space.
The beast taming space was something that every spiritualist brought with them, and it was used to store their own spirits.
Ye Haoran had been keeping the goldfish at home because it had been useless so far. Now it seemed that it was too dangerous to leave it at home. One day, it might become fish soup.
"Dad, Mom," Ye Haoran said seriously at the dinner table, "Do you think I can become a powerful spiritualist?"
Mr. Ye's face was calm as he immediately summoned his spirit, which was a green Giant Ape.
"Xiao Qing, take him to the hospital to have his brain checked."
The Giant Ape gritted its teeth and its fan-sized hands instantly wrapped around Ye Haoran.
"F*ck! Get away from me!"
Ye Haoran felt a chill run down his spine. He dodged and jumped to the side, " I'm not sick! I'm just asking if it's possible."
"No, not possible," Mr. Ye picked up a piece of food and said, "Do you expect that little fish to become a dragon?"
Ye Haoran kept his mouth shut, but his eyes flickered. It wasn't impossible for his goldfish to become a Golden Dragon.
Beitong No. 2 High School.
In the afternoon, the weather was hot. The strong sunlight shone on Zhao Hui's broken gold-rimmed glasses, making him look extremely comical.
Behind him, a silver wolf was lying on the ground, enjoying the service of a few underlings.
"Hmph, Ye Haoran," Zhao Hui said hatefully. The swelling on his face had mostly disappeared, but the bruises were still visible.
"I have the Aurora Wolf. What makes you think you can fight me with a fish?"
At the same time, the silver wolf behind him howled, attracting the attention of the passersby.
The 3-star contract spirit, the Aurora Wolf, was a rare and powerful spirit. It was known for its speed and was mainly used for offense and assassination. It usually took the main position.
Moreover, Zhao Hui's Aurora Wolf had become a Level 4 spirit with the help of a large number of resources, which made him ahead of most of the students in his grade.
This was also the reason behind Zhao Hui's confidence. With the Aurora Wolf's help, Ye Haoran's brute force was completely useless.
At this moment, Ye Haoran walked over from the school gate.
"Brother, the rope."
Zhao Jinlong quickly walked forward and in front of Zhao Hui, lowered his head to Ye Haoran and said, "Brother Ye, I've already deeply reflected on my mistakes. I'll turn over a new leaf from now on and won't do bad things again."
As he spoke, Zhao Jinlong handed over the rope and a few pieces of paper to Ye Haoran.
Ye Haoran lowered his head and saw that it was a letter of apology. It was filled with words of praise for him.
Ye Haoran nodded and put away the letter of apology. Of course, he would slowly appreciate this kind of thing at night.
Zhao Hui's eyes narrowed. He knew that a spineless person like Zhao Jinlong was unreliable.
Ye Haoran ignored Zhao Hui and directly walked into the Spirit Arena.
The Spirit Arena was a battle place built by the school and it was specifically used for students to fight with each other.
Due to the fact that spirits had all sorts of strange abilities and were very destructive, the Spirit Arena was built very sturdy and high, with a height of several tens of meters.
Ye Haoran went straight to the gathering point of Class 5 and saw Su Chen, who had arrived early.
"What happened?"
"As one of the two grand thieves of Beitong, why did you get beaten up?" Ye Haoran asked in confusion as he looked at Su Chen, whose eyes were bruised.
"Sigh, don't talk about it," Su Chen waved his hand. "Old Zhou saw my exam paper when he was invigilating today and said I was a fool. I was so angry that I tied him up with a hemp rope."
"And then, you did it?" Ye Haoran looked at him as if he was a fool.
"I did, but I didn't," Su Chen said and softly added that he was also beaten up.
"You're really awesome. Old Zhou is a Level 26 spiritualist," Ye Haoran said and gave him a thumbs-up. Then he asked, "You're just a Level 1, how dare you provoke him?"
Su Chen changed the topic and asked, "I heard that you have a fight with Zhao Hui from Class 4. Are you confident?"
Ye Haoran's lips curved up slightly as he whispered in Su Chen's ear, "Have you heard of the Dragon's Roar?"
