Chapter 25 He’s Just a Piece of Trash, He’s Not Worth It
“Enough! Why are you all quarreling here? Are you letting them laugh at us?! If other people know about this, they would think that the people in our school are not getting along!” The principal shouted and finally stopped the quarrel between Mr. Yang and the female teachers.
Even though they had stopped talking, their angered expressions and angry gazes did not weaken at all.
Seeing this, the principal also shook his head and sighed in his heart, “Su Chen is such a disaster! If it wasn’t for the fact that there are so few people who have awakened their talents today, I wouldn’t even have come to see him even if I have to die!”
“To think the teachers of the school are quarreling because of this useless student. What would other people think of Binhai First High if they saw this?” The principal turned his head and glared at the teachers, his expression impatient and disgusted.
At this moment, an excited roar came from the arena. It was as if tens of thousands of people were singing a chorus. It was majestic and powerful.
When the principal and the others heard the roar, they were surprised, puzzled, and worried.
The pleasant surprise was that if the audience was still cheering, it meant that the duel was still going on, which meant that Su Chen had persisted for so long!
The puzzlement was because Su Chen had only awakened a D-grade talent. How could he have lasted so long in the battle with the weeping corpse bird?
He hadn’t awakened a combat-type or defensive talent, so what kind of method did he use to keep himself going?
In the end, the principal and Mr. Yang were worried again.
After all, Su Chen was only a student with a D-grade talent.
He did not have a good talent, nor did he have combat experience.
It was already a miracle for a person who didn’t have anything to persist for so long. It was even possible that Su Chen was already exhausted at this point and had performed beyond his usual limits.
Therefore, every minute or even every second after that would be extremely difficult!
As such, the principal, Mr. Yang, and the others were increasingly worried. They were anxious to seize every second to save Su Chen!
“This arena is just cheating! Su Chen must have been tricked into going in!” The principal looked at the exaggerated advertisement on the poster and was so angry that he wanted to smash his phone.
At the same time, he kept muttering in his heart, “Please bless my student, he must stay alive! Please don’t die!”
“Su Chen, you must hold on! I’ll be there to save you soon!” Mr. Yang mumbled to himself anxiously, to the point that a layer of dense sweat appeared on his forehead.
Hearing Mr. Yang’s words, the female teachers who had quarreled with him began chattering again.
“Hmph, he’s just putting up a show. It makes me want to puke just looking at him. If Su Chen didn’t awaken a money-making talent, he wouldn’t have been so worried, right?”
“Ms. An, that’s not right. After all, those who didn’t awaken a talent didn’t get the attention of someone either, right?”
“Hey, don’t say that. Who knows, maybe Su Chen will buy our school in the future. By then, someone might be directly appointed as the principal!”
“That’s right. Who would dare to say that Su Chen is useless then? Let alone a weeping corpse bird, he wouldn’t even be afraid of the myriad races of fierce beasts, right?”
The sarcastic chatter once again drifted to Mr. Yang’s ears.
But this time, before he could lash out, the five muscular men finally appeared in their line of sight again.
The leader of the group was holding a few tickets in his hand and walking towards them with a smile, “You guys are lucky. There are still a few seats in the stands. Pay up, it’s only 1380!”
The principal heaved a sigh of relief when he heard 1380 Yuan. He could accept the price.
Although 1380 Yuan was almost half of his monthly salary, to save Su Chen as soon as possible, he had to pay the hefty price.
When he took the ticket and looked at it, he suddenly frowned. He looked at the two words on the simple ticket and felt as if he had been cheated, “Standing tickets?”
These standing tickets cost 1380 Yuan each. Before the principal and the others had arrived, standing tickets only cost slightly more than 400 Yuan, and that was after the price had been tripled.
“That’s not right! You guys clearly said that the ticket price was only 458 Yuan! Why is it so many times more expensive now?!” Mr. Yang couldn’t understand.
He didn’t expect that after he asked this question, the ticket in the principal’s hand was taken back straight away.
The five muscular men simply took the tickets and left!
“If you don’t have money, why buy tickets? Do you think our boss is doing charity?”
Seeing those people walking further and further away, the principal was anxious. If they wanted to save Su Chen, they had to first enter the arena.
Therefore, even if the other party maliciously raised the price, he had no choice but to buy!
“Wait! I’ll buy it!” The principal gritted his teeth and decided to buy the ticket. Even if it was only a standing ticket, it was better than not being able to enter!
However, the other party’s next words left the principal and the others dumbfounded, “1380 Yuan for one ticket. You pay, then you can enter.”
The principal’s hand that was getting the money suddenly froze in place. Then, he looked at the strong man in shock, “What? 1380 Yuan for one… standing ticket?”
They could have just robbed them, but instead, they choose to force a piece of scribbled paper on them and collect a fee.
“I…” The principal clenched his jaw and passed the money to the other party with trembling hands. However, if he were to buy tickets for other teachers, he would have to lose a lot
At the same time, Mr. Yang took out his own money and handed it to the other party, getting a standing ticket in exchange.
This action surprised the principal. He looked at Mr. Yang with a trace of gratitude.
Yet, Mr. Yang inadvertently attracted the resentment of other teachers once more.
“Yo, some teachers are really rich. To think he can buy a ticket that costs more than a thousand Yuan just like that. He’s even franker than our principal!”
“Isn’t that so? Don’t you see that the student only has a D-grade talent? I’m afraid that he’s already at his limit for being able to hold on until now, right? Don’t tell me he’s going to die on stage after we buy the tickets?”
“Sigh, now that you’ve mentioned it, I’ll just wait outside. If the garrison comes, don’t they need someone to receive them?”
All of a sudden, the ten or so teachers all expressed that they would stay outside.
To them, Su Chen was not their student. Even if they saved him, would he be grateful to them?
Besides, was it worth it to save a guy with a mere D-grade support-type talent?
It wasn’t worth it. At least to them, spending such an amount to save a good-for-nothing student was not worth it at all.
“Alright, since that’s the case, Mr. Yang, the two of us will go in together. The rest of you can wait outside for the garrison,” After the principal gave his instructions, he and Mr. Yang took the standing tickets and stepped into the arena.
At this moment, a figure ran in hurriedly.
The youth’s face was covered in sweat as he stopped in front of the crowd and panted heavily.
Then, he opened his hand and shoved it to the muscular men. The few crumpled notes in his hand were thus displayed in front of everyone. He panted as he said, “Boss, a ticket please!”
