Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 519: Chapter 518 You’re Just Jealous

The people from Seventh Middle School looked at each other, and they all fell into silence.

Third Middle School’s academic performance had always been at the top of the city, and even ahead in the province. Seventh Middle School, however, was close to the bottom in the city.

To compete with Third Middle School on the spot, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble? Who would want to do something like that?

Seeing that no one answered, the acne-faced boy immediately looked smug, ”What’s the matter? Too scared to go? Don’t say I didn’t remind you, if you sign up for the competition, the registration fee is waived. So, are you tempted now?”

His words only made everyone angrier. This was simply contempt!

Just then, the class president sitting in the front took a deep breath and said firmly, ”I’ll go!”

”Class president?” Everyone exclaimed in surprise, and Zhao Qiupeng looked especially concerned, ”These people are just setting us up. They devise the questions for the competition; if you go, you’re sure to be at a disadvantage!”

The class president shook his head and said with determination, ”We can’t let them look down on us!”

Everyone fell silent. The acne-faced boy glanced at the class president and sneered, ”I know you, Wang Liao, you made it into the city’s top ten before, but you quickly fell off and never made it into the top fifty after that. Hmph, I’ve always suspected there was something fishy about your top ten finish. This time, we’ll test your true skills!”

”You know your grandpa!” Zhao Qiupeng shouted angrily, ”The class president was sick and resting at home for a while, that’s why his academic performance fell behind. Otherwise, what would you count for?”

”Sick or not, we don’t know. We’ll see after the competition,” the acne-faced boy sneered, ”Wang Liao, remember to come early that day, and don’t chicken out!”

Someone from below couldn’t help cursing, ”Fuck off, watch your language!”

”How the hell do you talk!” the acne-faced boy also got angry, ”You dare to curse?”

”What about it if I curse you, I’ll even hit you!” The person below howled and rushed up, and the two sides immediately started fighting.

The people from Seventh Middle School had already been holding back their anger, and upon seeing this, a group of them immediately rushed up and surrounded the students from Third Middle School, beating them.

Su Yang stood in the back, shaking his head again and again. These students who excelled in their studies didn’t hold back in a fight either.

However, these people from Third Middle School were indeed too arrogant, Su Yang wanted to beat them up himself. If it weren’t for his status, Su Yang probably would have taken action already.

As the brawl continued, a burst of angry voices suddenly came from the door, ”What are you doing? What are you doing? Stop it right now!”

”The principal is here!”

With a shout, everyone quickly dispersed, leaving the scene in disarray.

White Fatty Dong Hui and several men in suits were coming from a distance. One of the tall men was the vice principal of Third Middle School, and he said with an angry face, ”Principal Dong, what is going on? Is this the quality of the students from Seventh Middle School? So many of you beating up a few from Third Middle School, what is this? Are you all hooligans or what?”

The boy with acne hastily ran over, his voice choked with tears, ”Principal Zhou, those people from No. 7 Middle School are bullying us too much. We just told them we have seventeen recommendation spots, and they lost their tempers, kept insulting us, and even started hitting us...”

Principal Zhou was even more livid, ”Dong Hui, what is the meaning of this? Our school has seventeen recommendation spots, and that was decided by the higher-ups. If you’re unhappy about it, why don’t you talk to them? Why beat up our students to vent your anger? If your own students are not capable, and nobody gives them recommendation spots, can you blame us for that?”

Dong Hui’s face was extremely ugly. Just now, when Principal Zhou came to find him and mentioned the recommendation spots, he himself nearly passed out from anger.

In previous years, No. 7 Middle School would at least get one recommendation spot. But this time, with this move, No. 7 Middle School probably wouldn’t have a single one left—it was a downright insult to him as the principal.

Truthfully, he himself wanted to beat these people up. But the problem was, you just can’t do that, can you? What would it mean for students to fight like this!

Clenching his teeth, Dong Hui strode over to the scene, glared at everyone, and shouted angrily, ”What are you doing?”

Everyone hung their heads and didn’t dare to speak, all with extremely ugly expressions on their faces.

Principal Zhou strode over furiously and yelled, ”Got any complaints, speak up! Your principal is right here, just say it. What, you’re not satisfied with our school’s recommendation spots? Fine, speak up, if you’re unsatisfied, just say it. Oh, right, there’s no point telling your principal, go talk to the Education Bureau, go to the province, make a fuss there, go there to hit people.”

”Look at yourselves, do you even look like students? Students are supposed to focus on their studies, what is this behavior? If you can’t study as well as others, do you resort to beating others up because you outnumber them? What’s the difference between you and those hooligans outside?”

”I’ve long heard that No. 7 Middle School produces little thugs, but I didn’t expect to actually witness it today. Is your school there to educate and nurture, or to cultivate failures and trash? If such people are sent into society, wouldn’t they be a specific menace to the public?”

The students from No. 7 Middle School clenched their fists tightly, all extremely angry but daring not to say anything.

”Your words are too harsh!” Dong Hui couldn’t help but protest, ”What’s wrong with our No. 7 Middle School students? Your students from No. 3 Middle School come here to show off, shouldn’t they bear some responsibility?”

”We have seventeen recommendation spots, and we came here to share our joy, share our learning experiences, what’s wrong with that?” Principal Zhou yelled, ”I see it’s jealousy, you’re jealous we have so many spots. But you see, these spots are earned through strength, you’ve got no strength, what’s there to talk about? If you’re not convinced, let the higher-ups allocate a few recommendation spots to you too!”

Dong Hui was so angry he was at a loss for words. He indeed wanted some spots, but the problem was, who would give them? No. 7 Middle School’s results were only mediocre. If there were a dozen spots, they might have gotten one. Now, with only three left, there was no chance for No. 7 Middle School to get any!

Just then, a person beside them suddenly ran over panting, urgently saying, ”Principal Dong, the president of Jinghua University and three vice presidents, as well as Director Hu from the Provincial Department of Education have arrived!”

”What?” Dong Hui was stunned, as were all the people on the scene, especially Principal Zhou, whose eyes nearly popped out of his head, what’s going on?

Jinghua University was the best university in all of Huaxia. Their president had a status not much less than the number one official in Pingnan Province. Such high-profile figures had personally come here?

And the head of the Education Department actually came to Nanluo City, which in itself could shock the education sector.

But most crucially, they came directly to No. 7 Middle School without any notice from the city education bureau, indicating they didn’t know about this matter, making it even more shocking!

”They... what are they here for...” Dong Hui’s lips were quivering.

”They... they said they came to invite... to invite Su Yang to Jinghua University...” the person swallowed nervously and tremblingly let out two words, ”as a teacher!”
