85 Fourth-Year Student of Heart Society
Ye Fan ignored everyone’s praise.
He calmly walked down the arena and returned to the waiting area.
Chen Xin, Xiao Qiuya, and the others were ranked last. After a while, the four of them went on stage one after another.
More than ten arenas were used in turns. The competition progressed very quickly.
The qualifiers ended at noon.
There was no need to mention Xu Menghan and Su Wan’er, the two third-year students.
Xiao Qiuya was an elite second-year student to begin with. Her strength was enough to rank in the top five of the entire grade.
It was very easy for them to pass the qualifiers.
Chen Xin had also broken through to Rank 2 not long ago. In terms of strength, she could compare to most second-year students. Although the entire process was a little strenuous, she still passed the qualifiers without any mishaps.
Thus, including Ye Fan, all five members of the Rose Society advanced.
“The official competition starts in the afternoon. I’ve asked around.”
After lunch, they went to the field early to wait.
“I’ve asked around. Among the 300 people in the official competition, only Ye Fan and Chen Xin are first-year students.”
“There are more than ten second-year students, and the rest are all in the third or fourth grade.”
As they walked to the waiting area, Xiao Qiuya described the situation she had asked around. The others were not too surprised to hear this.
Rank-2 was only the threshold. Unless the students below Rank-2 happened to be opponents of first-year students, it was impossible for them to pass the qualifiers. After all, any second-year student could defeat them.
As for elite first-year students like Chen Xin, who had advanced to Rank-2, as long as their luck wasn’t too bad, they had a chance of advancing if they didn’t encounter third- or fourth-year students or second-year elite students.
Of course, a monstrous genius like Ye Fan was naturally not among them!
With Ye Fan’s strength, he didn’t need to be afraid of second- or third-year students at all. The only thing he needed to worry about was the fourth-year students. Most of them were Rank-4 Beast Tamers.
Xiao Qiuya analyzed seriously.
“The fourth-year students are generally very strong and have been training outside the school for a long time.”
“They have experienced countless battles and have a lot of combat experience.”
Compared to them, the other three grades were like flowers in a greenhouse that could not be blown by the wind or drenched by the rain.
“To encounter such an opponent, even you, Ye Fan, have to be extremely careful.”
Hearing her words, Ye Fan only smiled and didn’t say anything.
The few of them were chatting when they noticed a group of people walking towards them from the corner of their eyes. Those people were not very friendly.
The leader was a very tall young man, and there were many people behind him.
Upon closer inspection, they were familiar faces. Guo Qi, Cao Wuji, and Li Weiping, from Heart Society!
“Junior Sister Menghan, it’s been a long time since we last met.”
The young man at the front greeted Xu Menghan and Su Wan’er with a warm smile.
“Long time no see, Senior Xue Shan.”
Xu Menghan replied indifferently.
Su Wan’er only nodded without saying anything. Their reactions were very calm.
Glancing at Guo Qi and the others standing behind that person, Ye Fan more or less understood.
Clearly, this young man called Xue Shan should be the fourth-year senior of the Heart Society.
Although these society members had already left the society, their relationship with the society was still not ordinary.
Xue Shan seemed to be used to Xu Menghan and Su Wan’er’s coldness. He did not say anything.
Instead, he smiled and asked, “Where’s Shen Miao? Why isn’t she here?”
“Senior Sister Shen Miao has already left.”
Xue Shan nodded. Only now did he seem to notice Ye Fan’s existence and look at him.
“This must be Junior Brother Ye Fan.”
Ye Fan expressionlessly glanced at Guo Qi, not saying anything.
The meaning was very obvious. How could Guo Qi and the others not have told you about me?
Seeing him like this, Xue Shan’s face twitched slightly, but he endured it and spoke to him.
“I’ve long heard that Junior Brother Ye Fan’s talent is outstanding. Even Junior Brother Guo Qi and the others lost to you. If there’s a chance in this competition, I hope I can compete with you.”
Ye Fan didn’t cower. He directly replied, “No problem, if you can last until the end.”
To Guo Qi and the others, these words sounded like he was looking down on them. Their expressions changed slightly.
Cao Wuji sneered. He was just about to mock him, but when his gaze met Ye Fan’s, his heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t say anything.
Xue Shan’s eyes were filled with fear, and the smile on his face faded.
“Confidence is a good thing. I hope Junior Brother Ye Fan’s strength matches your confidence.”
After saying this, Xue Shan left without looking back. The members of the Heart Society hurriedly followed.
“I knew this guy wasn’t up to anything good. He came to cause trouble.”
Xiao Qiuya stared at their backs and sneered.
Chen Xin revealed a worried expression.
“Xue Shan and the others are all in the fourth grade.”
“Yes.” Xu Menghan answered.
“Xue Shan is the previous president of Heart Society. The other fourth-year students are also old people from Heart Society.”
When Chen Xin heard this, she became even more worried.
“Wouldn’t it be bad if we meet them in the competition?”
Ye Fan smiled and comforted her, “Don’t worry, it won’t be so easy to meet him.”
However, he did not take it seriously at all. If he could defeat them once, he could defeat them a second time!
Soon, they threw this matter to the back of their minds and focused on the upcoming competition.
After walking far away, Xue Shan’s expression suddenly darkened. The fourth-year students beside him also had an ugly expression.
Cao Wuji snorted. “That kid is really arrogant. How can a mere first-year student be so arrogant?”
“Look at him just now. He didn’t even take Brother Shan seriously. I wonder who gave him the confidence.”
“No matter what, we have to take revenge for the Rose Society snatching away our resources!”
The few fourth-year students said with gloomy expressions.
