At this moment, the stinging pain in Bai Feng's eyes had only slightly subsided. He quickly got up from the ground. His bloodshot eyes were full of admiration as he stared straight at Fang Yuan and said excitedly, "Brother Fang, you're so awesome! Even Lord Shi couldn't trap you!"
Bai Feng's address for Fang Yuan changed from "Fang Yuan" to "Brother Fang". At the same time, the name above his head changed from blue to green.
Bai Feng secretly rejoiced that he hadn't begged Shi Mo for mercy and distanced himself from Fang Yuan just now. Otherwise, he would have suffered a great loss! Fang Yuan could easily break through Shi Mo's restriction. His future was bound to be limitless. This was a thigh that he had to hold tight! Fang Yuan glanced at Bai Feng and thought to himself that they were both fifteen years old. How did he suddenly become "brother"?
He also noticed that the identity label above Bai Feng's head had quietly changed from [Young Master of the Bai Family Martial Arts Hall] to [Student of Tianjiao Camp]. It seemed that this name system displayed the most important current identity of the other person. Apparently, the identity of a Tianjiao Camp student carried more weight than that of the young master of a martial arts hall.
"Didn't I tell you to cover your eyes just now?" Fang Yuan looked at Bai Feng and asked. "Well... mainly I was a bit slow to react..." Bai Feng scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
"I said it twice."
"My hearing isn't very good either..."
"With you being so weak, what are you still practicing martial arts for?"
"..." Bai Feng was immediately at a loss for words and fell silent. Looking at his appearance, a flash of inspiration came to Fang Yuan's mind. He pondered that he could create a new move, using electricity to generate intense light to blind the enemy's eyes, somewhat like the Solar Flare in "Dragon Ball". However, he put this thought aside for now. The top priority was to find a place to live. Fang Yuan didn't want to live in those shabby thatched huts.
He looked around and found that there were exactly fifteen wooden houses in the Tianjiao Camp. Each wooden house had a number engraved on it. Presumably, this was the strength ranking. The earlier the number, the stronger the strength.
"Have you decided who to challenge?" Lin Jing noticed Fang Yuan's gaze and asked.
"Of course, I'll choose the first one." Fang Yuan said and then walked towards the wooden house ranked first, showing great initiative. Fang Yuan shared the same thought as most people here. As a genius, one had to be arrogant. When there were benefits, one had to fight for them, and fight for the best!
The wooden house area was the private territory of the top fifteen students. Usually, few people approached it. Seeing Fang Yuan take the initiative to walk over there, the young students around immediately became interested: "Hey, that kid is going towards the wooden house area. It seems he's going to challenge the top fifteen!"
"He's new, right? He dares to challenge the top fifteen on his first day. Tsk tsk, he's really bold!"
"What do you know? This is called a newborn calf not fearing the tiger!"
"Come on, brother. I'm rooting for you!"
"Right, just go for it. Our Tianjiao Camp will cover the medical expenses and there will be enough medicinal materials!"
... The teenagers around had expressions of watching the excitement and not thinking it was a big deal. They talked and cheered one after another. More people heard the news and came out of the thatched huts one after another. Watching a new person challenge the top fifteen was one of the few amusements in the Tianjiao Camp. After all, life was short, and one had to learn to find amusement in other people's affairs and have some fun for oneself. Some students even opened a betting line on the spot, betting on whether Fang Yuan's challenge would succeed or not.
Not only the ordinary students, but also several of the top fifteen students in the Tianjiao Camp came out of the wooden houses. They could all potentially be the targets of Fang Yuan's challenge. Their gazes towards Fang Yuan were different, some disdainful, some focused, some cautious... But when they saw Fang Yuan walking straight towards the innermost part, they were all surprised: "Wait, this kid actually wants to challenge Mo Wuhen, who ranks first!"
"He's even more arrogant than I thought!!"
"Haha, he has quite a nerve. Does he want to be the boss just after arriving?"
...
The discussions among the students reached Bai Feng's ears. He couldn't help but sneer. Was this considered arrogant? What was it for Brother Fang to challenge the number one student? If you saw that even Lord Shi was subdued by Brother Fang, you'd probably be scared out of your wits! Lin Jing glanced at Bai Feng. Seeing his excited expression, she knew that this kid had probably put himself in Fang Yuan's shoes and was secretly having a great time.
Fang Yuan naturally heard the discussions among the students too, but he didn't take it to heart. They could discuss as they liked, as long as they didn't launch personal attacks...
"Where did this stupid kid come from? He's going to look for the number one as soon as he arrives. Is he in such a hurry to get beaten up?!"
"Newcomers are all like this. They're extremely arrogant. They'll be obedient after getting a beating."
Well, what he feared the most had come. This was actually normal. After all, most of the students here were talented elites from various parts of Guanghan Prefecture. In their respective small areas, they were the best among their peers. They had developed arrogant tempers and looked down on others at every turn. This was the so - called arrogance of geniuses. Someone as modest as Fang Yuan was really rare.
Fang Yuan turned his head following the sound, and his eyes quickly locked onto the two people who were speaking. Above their heads, it showed [Zhuang Yu, Student of Tianjiao Camp] and [Yuan Yifei, Student of Tianjiao Camp]. These two were both in the top fifteen, one ranked thirteenth and the other fourteenth. Without saying a word, Fang Yuan strode towards them.
In the game, when encountering a taunting minion, one must attack it first. The same was true in reality!
"Hey, this kid is coming towards us!"
"Just in time. Let's warm up and teach this kid a lesson!" Seeing Fang Yuan approaching, Zhuang Yu and Yuan Yifei were not panicked at all. They clenched their fists and got into a stance, looking confident of victory. As members of the top fifteen, they were full of confidence in their own strength. Otherwise, they wouldn't have dared to taunt. In their eyes, dealing with a new student was just a piece of cake.
Fang Yuan quickly walked up to the two of them, casually pointed with his hand, and said, "I challenge you!"
As soon as the word "you" was spoken, Fang Yuan instantly disappeared from where he was. The only thought left in Zhuang Yu's mind, who was pointed at, was: "Where is he?"
"Damn it!" In the blink of an eye, Fang Yuan appeared behind Zhuang Yu. A powerful whip kick, like a firecracker exploding, carried visible demonic energy and heavily hit Zhuang Yu's back.
Bang!!! Zhuang Yu's whole body was like a kite with a broken string, smashing hard onto the hard obsidian ground. He became motionless and was directly kicked unconscious with one kick.
??? What was going on? Yuan Yifei beside him was extremely frightened. He only felt a blur in front of his eyes, and Zhuang Yu beside him was replaced by Fang Yuan. Sensing Fang Yuan's unfriendly gaze, Yuan Yifei took several steps back in fear, his voice trembling: "Hey, bro... you've already hit him. You can't hit me again!"
