The tension between Class 7 and Class 1 was palpable like a bubble waiting to burst. Class 1 boasted the arrogant and affluent Duan Shujie from the prestigious Duan family in the capital, while Class 7 had the swaggering Han Ning. Both were formidable contenders.
Yet, what remained a secret was the fact that Class 7 harbored a hidden powerhouse—Rong Qi—who wielded immense influence from behind the scenes.
Curiosity piqued, many students took to the campus forums to place bets on who would ultimately emerge as the top dog of the university. The odds were split down the middle, between Duan Shujie and Han Ning. On one hand, Duan Shujie had the capital's powerful Duan family backing him. On the other, Han Ning had long ruled the roost at the university, and his position seemed unshakeable. The outcome of this battle for supremacy was anyone's guess.
