Chapter 71 - Argument
“Zhang Yi, what’s the matter?” Zhou Hao asked curiously.
Zhang Yi scratched his head. “Zhou Hao, it’s like this. My sister’s birthday is tomorrow, so I wanted to invite you over for a meal to thank you for your help in the previous assessment competition!”
When Zhou Hao heard this, he couldn’t help but smile. “Sure. Speaking of which, I haven’t met your sister yet. By the way, why don’t you call Xu Ling over too? It’s more convenient since they’re both girls.”
“I’m not familiar with Xu Ling..” Zhang Yi said in embarrassment.
“That’s not true. We’ve all become quite familiar after cooperating together during the training these past few days. Don’t worry, if you ask her, she’ll definitely agree to coming.”
Just as Zhou Hao said, when Xu Ling heard that she was being invited to Zhang Yi’s sister’s birthday party, she agreed without thinking and even offered to arrange the venue.
Zhang Yi hesitated for a moment and agreed.
Zhang Yi was broke in the past but his financial situation was better now. He wanted to give his sister the best birthday this year.
The next afternoon, Zhou Hao went straight to the agreed-upon De Ran Residence.
When he arrived, he realized that the other students from their class were also there. Even Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the other Yanjing geniuses were there.
Needless to say, this was definitely arranged by Xu Ling.
He hurriedly walked in front of Xu Ling and whispered, “Xu Ling, why did you invite so many people?”
Xu Ling explained, “Zhang Yi told me yesterday that his sister has always had low self-esteem since she was young. She barely has any friends in school, so he asked me to make things more exciting for her this time.”
“I was thinking that since we haven’t had a gathering together before, I might as well take this opportunity to invite everyone over.”
After Zhou Hao came to a realization, he couldn’t help but be speechless.
“Yuan Cheng and the others actually accepted your invitation?”
Xu Ling smiled and said, “Yuan Cheng and Yun Yan are pretty easy to talk to. As for Fang Yu, Lei Jinpeng, and the other two, they were probably persuaded by Yuan Cheng.”
Zhou Hao was convinced. Xu Ling did not have much talent in combat, but in terms of dealing with people, she had inherited her father’s strengths. In just a few days, she was able to be on friendly terms with Yuan Cheng and Yun Yan!
Of course, what he didn’t know was that Instructor Shen was actually responsible for getting Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the others to show up.
As time passed, Zhang Yi and his sister still did not arrive.
The originally bustling spacious room gradually became restless.
After all, many students had come because it was Xu Ling who invited them.
“Xu Ling, where’s Zhang Yi? Why isn’t he here yet?”
“Aren’t we here to celebrate his sister’s birthday, so why doesn’t he arrive earlier?”
“That’s right, it’s almost 1 pm. We still have classes in the afternoon!”
Many students complained.
Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the other Yanjing geniuses did not say anything.
Fang Yu seized the opportunity and sneered. “If you don’t even have this bit of patience, then you probably won’t be able to accomplish much in the future!”
Lei Jinpeng chimed in, “Sister Fang is right. In a battle with the foreign races in the wilderness, patience is the most important. We’ve only waited for a while, and yet you guys are already getting impatient. As expected of the students from Qu City High School!”
The other students had long disliked Fang Yu and Lei Jinpeng.
In the past few days of the virtual combat training, the two of them had often found fault with them and mocked them endlessly. It seemed that they wanted to vent the humiliation of losing to Xu Ling and Zhou Hao last time.
Now, when they heard what Fang Yu and Lei Jinpeng just said, they immediately exploded in an uproar.
“What’s the use of patience when you were still suppressed by our Qu City High School’s Xu Ling?”
“Hehe, weren’t they the so-called geniuses of Yanjing Training Camp? In my opinion, they’re probably trash that are ranked at the bottom of the Yanjing Training Camp!”
“Definitely. If they were real geniuses, why would Instructor Shen transfer them here?”
They shouted angrily.
Fang Yu and Lei Jinpeng were already very bothered about being transferred to Huadong City. When they heard what they said this moment, they immediately became furious.
“We’re trash? What a joke. Come, I’ll fight you without even using my hands!”
“You weaklings should consider it an honor to even be able to speak to us. After all, you guys can’t even deal with a single demon warrior.”
“A bunch of trash who only knows how to make up stories!”
The other students were not to be outdone as they shouted again, “Yes, we can’t beat you, but the peerless genius of our Qu City High School can easily crush you with a finger!”
“That’s right. Stop looking down on our Qu City High School. When you see the strength of that hidden peerless genius, you will understand that you aren’t as superior as you think!”
“In the eyes of the peerless genius of our Qu City High School, you are even inferior to demon warriors!”
The spacious room was immediately filled with noise, and there were even signs of fighting.
Xu Ling felt a headache coming on. She hurriedly stopped them, but it was useless.
Zhou Hao was also feeling very helpless. The moment these two groups met, they began fighting without stopping.
“Hahaha, you’re making up stories again?”
“Where’s the peerless genius who killed three high-level demon generals? Ask him to come on out and show us his strength!”
“In terms of the ability of making up stories, we are indeed far inferior to the students of Qu City High School!”
Lei Jinpeng laughed crazily.
Fang Yu looked at them disdainfully.
Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the others also shook their heads secretly.
They had often heard these Qu City High School students talk about that peerless geniuses. However, let alone these five transfer students, even the Head Instructor of the Yanjing Training Camp did not believe it.
“Zhou Hao, call Zhang Yi quickly,” Xu Ling urged.
historical
Zhou Hao had actually called Zhang Yi a long time ago, but the other party did not answer.
He spread his hands and was about to say something when he saw an anxious Zhang Yi appear at the door of the room.
The other students in the room stopped fighting.
They could tell that Zhang Yi was on the verge of breaking down.
