“And you are?”
Taken aback when she saw a group of people approach her, Jiang Yaru expressed that she doesn’t know them. She doesn’t know what they want from her.
“I am Han Shan from Zhengde High School.” The young man in white introduced himself, elegant. However, there are traces of pride on his face, betraying his innate disposition.
The surrounding students were shocked at once.
“Zhengde High School? That’s that famous private school in Skywater City?”
“It’s that school. Reportedly, students who can attend that school e from privileged backgrounds. The tuition fee there is 30,000 to 40,000 federal credits every semester. It’s no hoke. That’s not something the poor can afford.”
“Moreover, the students attending that school are really strong. Students attending a public school like us fundamentally can’t pare with them.”
“How could we pare? All of them are rich kids. With monstrous beast meat to eat, famous teachers to guide them, and all kinds of training facilities, they have great advantage over us.”
“Han Shan apparently is famous in Zhengde High School. He’s the school’s No. 1 expert, an 8th layer Martial Apprentice.”
“No way! Wouldn’t that make him stronger than Jiang Yaru and Chu Rong?!”
“He’s not only strong, but also has an impressive background. His family opened a food processing plant that specializes in processing monstrous beast meat and other foods. The plant has over 10,000 workers, with a market cap of 1 billion. It is said that the Han Family has great influence in Skywater City.”
The students were shocked and looked at the group of students from Zhengde High School with envy. The people from Zhengde High School, on the other hand, straightened their backs and lifted their chins, looking like their in a league of their own.
Han Shan has an expressionless look on his face, taking it for granted.
“So you’re a student from Zhengde High School.”
Nonmittal regarding the other party’s identity, Jiang Yaru asked indifferently, “What do you want?”
“The reason why I came to you is very simple — I want us to work together.”
Han Shan uttered with a light smile, “I heard of your reputation, Miss Jiang. You’re the No.1 expert of 9th High School, a 7th layer Martial Apprentice. You would be regarded as an excellent seedling even in Zhengde High School.”
“Therefore, I hope you can join our team for Savage Beast Island’s trial by fire.”
“I believe you are aware that a person’s strength doesn’t count for much in a jungle like Savage Beast Island. However, a team is different. It greatly increases survivability.”
“Miss Jiang, if you join forces with us, taking first place in this trial by fire will be as easy as pie.”
He looked at Jiang Yaru with a burning shade in his eyes. To tell the truth, he is seeing a girl as beautiful as her for the first time. He fell in love with her at first sight. There aren’t such beautiful girls even in Zhengde High School.
If he takes advantage of this trial by fire, he can hit it off with the other party. Coupled with several deliberately created “the hero saves the beauty” scenarios, he may be able to charm this beauty and win her heart.
In fact, Han Shan doesn’t care about the Body Tempering Pills. He is rich and can buy several at will. But beautiful girls are different. It’s not so easy to obtain them.
“There’s no need.”
Jiang Yaru refused flatly: “I already formed a team with my classmates. Therefore, I’m afraid I won’t be able to join your team.”
Han Shan’s face turned gloomy when he heard this. He came to personally invite the other party, yet was unexpectedly rejected. He said, “With all due respect, I don’t think there are many strong people in 95th High School.”
“If you form a team with such people, they will only drag you down. You would to better to think it through some more.”
“I, Han Shan, personally came to invite you. This is a rare opportunity. I hope you will cherish it.”
When they heard his words, the students from 9th High School were livid. To be looked down and treated as trash, they are justifiably angry.
Jiang Yaru frowned. She didn’t expect this guy to be so troublesome, to be so relentless when it e to pursuing girls. At this time, she suddenly saw Xia Ping sitting close by. He is drinking a beverage happily, a leisurely expression on his face.
She got mad immediately. She’s in such an awkward situation, yet this guy here is just drinking a beverage as if nothing happened. That’s really too much.
She turned her eyes in thought. An idea struck her, and she said casually, “It’s alright with me to form a team with you. However, my boyfriend won’t agree to it.”
Jiang Yaru is secretly pleased with herself. This is you just desert for deliberately spreading rumors, you scoundrel.
Boyfriend?!
Upon hearing this, Han Shan’s expression became unsightly. In a rare fashion, he took a fancy to a girl, yet she’s already taken. That’s not right. He stared at Xia Ping sitting close by, anger spilling out of his eyes.
“Boy.”
Han Shan stepped forward, exuding a violent and oppressive aura. He’s trying to stifle Xia Ping: “Miss Jiang formed a team with us for the trial by fire. You should have no objections, right?”
“People from 95th High School such as your self with only drag Miss Jiang down. Don’t overestimate yourself. You have to know how to appreciate favors, you know?”
His words contain a threat, which seems to imply that he will take exception to him if Xia Ping has any objections.
The surrounding students watched Xia Ping with schadenfreude. The students from Zhengde High School, in particular, know that Han Shan is a vengeful guy. Furthermore, the methods he employs are cruel. Anyone who offends him won’t have a good ending.
Once in Zhengde High School, several students disrespected Han Shan. As a result, he had someone ambush them in an alley and break all their bones. To this day, no evidence has been uncovered regarding thin incident, tying the police’s hands.
The victimized students ended up traumatized and transferred schools, not daring to stay in Zhengde High School.
“Get lost!”
When he heard this, Xia Ping looked up lazily and just said two words to the other party.
What?!
Han Shan turned a bit green in the face. He is the king of Zhengde High School, and all the students passing by must bow their head and say hello to him. When has anyone ever spoken such words to him right to the face? But now this guy actually told him, Han Shan, to scram?”
The other students were stupefied. Although they knew that Xia Ping isn’t someone who should be provoked, but they didn’t expect him to be so arrogant. He doesn’t intend to give Han Shan any face.
The people from Zhengde High School were taken aback. They didn’t expect to see someone talk to Han Shan in such a manner. Suddenly, someone spoke with schadenfreude, “Han Shan, it seems that your name is useful only in Zhengde High School. No one cares about you outside.”
“Shut up!”
Han Shan roared. The person in question immediately shut their mouth, not daring to say anything else. It is evident that Han Shan is really angry.
He is furious. After all, this is the first time he was humiliated like this. His heart is babbling over with anger. If he does’t redeem his dignity, what face will he have left? Will he still be able to lift his head in front of the other students?”
