Xu Tianyi’s body froze for a moment. After a long while, he looked at Gu Qingchen with a serious expression, then at Jia Zhirui, muttering, “Can Gu Qingchen really be that powerful? More powerful than me? How is that possible! She’s just a little girl! You guys overestimate her.”
“We’ll find out after the fight. Just rest.”
Zhao Zimo handed Xu Tianyi a bottle of water. Xu Tianyi opened it and drank a few mouthfuls. When he saw Luo Yu not far away, he thought for a moment, then asked Zhao Zimo for another bottle and threw it at Luo Yu.
Luo Yu was almost smashed. He wanted to shout a few words, but when he saw that it was a bottle of water, Luo Yu looked at Xu Tianyi and was silent for a few seconds. Then, he picked up the bottle and raised it in Xu Tianyi’s direction to express his gratitude.
Xu Tianyi smiled and replied, then continued to drink a few more mouthfuls.
Many people were guessing whether Gu Qingchen would accept the challenge. After all, the difference between the two was too great. No matter how they looked at it, they felt like they were bullying Gu Qingchen.
However, since this was the rule, they could not make an exception just because of Gu Qingchen.
Just when everyone was guessing, Gu Qingchen slowly stood up and walked out with light steps.
“Since you want to fight, then hurry up.”
Gu Qingchen took off her heavy coat and put it aside. She stood there and looked at Jia Zhirui, who had a serious look on his face.
Jia Zhirui strode in front of Gu Qingchen without any contempt. He knew that Gu Qingchen was definitely not as weak as she looked.
“I won’t show mercy to you. You have to be careful.”
Gu Qingchen smiled and nodded. Then, she said the same thing to Jia Zhirui, “I won’t go easy on you either. You have to be careful too.”
Yo!
The students in Class One were a little dumbfounded. They did not expect Gu Qingchen to be so arrogant. Not bad. There would be a good show to watch this time.
Initially, they were worried that Gu Qingchen would be beaten up badly. But now, it seemed that she had brought it on herself.
Jia Zhirui’s gaze deepened. He narrowed his eyes and a cold light flashed in his dark eyes. At the same time, he attacked!
Gu Qingchen did not move at all. She stood there quietly and observed the attack route of Jia Zhirui. But in her mind, she was calculating a few ways to break the attack.
Just when Jia Zhirui’s fist wind reached Gu Qingchen’s face, Gu Qingchen finally moved.
The corners of Gu Qingchen’s mouth lifted, and she leaned back flexibly. At the same time, she raised her hand and flicked Jia Zhirui’s elbow with her finger. Jia Zhirui felt a pain in his arm instantly, and his entire body stiffened for a moment. He could only take a few steps back abruptly.

Gu Qingchen did not stop. She exerted force from her waist, stood up straight, and stepped on the ground with both feet. Her body was like lightning as she rushed towards Jia Zhirui.
Jia Zhirui immediately raised his other hand to defend himself, but who knew that Gu Qingchen would suddenly change direction when she rushed in front of Jia Zhirui. She grabbed Jia Zhirui’s wrist, and with a twist, she pulled Jia Zhirui forward. Her left knee pressed against Jia Zhirui’s knee, and with a gentle push, her right hand pushed Jia Zhirui’s side waist. Then, she threw him out.

Jia Zhirui’s tall body was thrown out by Gu Qingchen with a thud, making a muffled sound.
This series of movements was completed almost in an instant. It was so fast that before anyone could react, the battle had already ended.
1
They had finally witnessed what stability, accuracy, and ruthlessness meant.
Jia Zhirui fell to the ground. Even he himself did not know how he fell.
Although Jia Zhirui really wanted to stand up, he could not use any strength on his arm. This was the first time Jia Zhirui had lost so badly. In just one round, he was beaten to the ground before he could use any move. He could not even get up.
Pfft!
Xu Tianyi spat out a mouthful of water. He choked and coughed. His eyes widened in disbelief.
Was his vision playing tricks on him? Why did he seem to see Jia Zhirui being thrown out by Gu Qingchen and not being able to get up?
Cough, cough, cough, cough!
“This… it must be my dizziness and hallucinations.”
Xu Tianyi blinked his eyes and rubbed them with his hands. He looked over and saw that it was still Jia Zhirui lying on the ground.
Gu Qingchen stood there and looked at the crowd indifferently. Then, she asked, “Is there anyone else who wants to have a duel with me?”
1
Her indifferent tone was as if she was asking if they had eaten their lunch.
Zhao Zimo was also stunned. He could tell that Jia Zhirui valued Gu Qingchen so much because Gu Qingchen had her own abilities. However, Zhao Zimo never thought that Jia Zhirui would lose.
Moreover… he lost so miserably.
It was only one move, only one move, and he was knocked down by Gu Qingchen.
Everything happened too quickly and too sudden. For a moment, no one dared to step out and challenge Gu Qingchen.
What a joke. Didn’t they see that Jia Zhirui had lost? They thought that they couldn’t beat Jia Zhirui, so they naturally wouldn’t go up and wait to be beaten up.
But they had never thought that Jia Zhirui would lose.
Gu Qingchen looked around, but she didn’t see anyone who wanted to step out for a one-on-one fight. She walked to the side, and with a hook of her toes, the thick coat on the ground rose into the air and landed steadily in Gu Qingchen’s hands. All her movements were completed in one go.
“Since there’s no one want to fight me anymore, I’m done here.”
After she finished speaking, Gu Qingchen left the place with big strides, leaving the crowd with a cool back view.
1
After Gu Qingchen’s figure disappeared, the crowd finally reacted, and someone exclaimed in surprise.
“F*ck! She’s too f*cking cool, he’s so charming!”
The surrounding boys also nodded one after another, their eyes filled with excitement. They had always thought that the word handsome was a term used by men. Today, they realized that the girl who used the word handsome was actually so stunning.
“She’s a Valkyrie. Did you see her series of movements just now? It was like the flowing clouds and flowing water. It was very impressive!”
“Now I somewhat understand why she dared to request Director Jiang to assign her into Department of Economics at the welcoming ceremony. If I had such skills, I wouldn’t be afraid.”
“I have to say, Gu Qingchen’s skills are too cool. But if she could come to our department, she can’t only have skills. We are not those simple-minded and well-developed fellows in the Department of Sports. In our department, we use our brains!”
“Have you forgotten her performance last class? If she can answer Mr. Shan’s question, how can her brain be simple! I think that our Department of Economics has sent a top-notch student, and the school will be even more lively in the future.”
The students in Class One were discussing animatedly. It could be seen that they were not rejecting Gu Qingchen and Luo Yu, but it was a habit of Hongfeng. Everyone had gone through it that way, naturally, Gu Qingchen and Luo Yu were no exception.
Zhao Zimo glanced at Jia Zhirui and patted Xu Tianyi, “Don’t rest. Let’s go and check on Jia Zhirui. I think he is badly injured, and not just physically.”

Xu Tianyi shrugged, “I can’t cure him mentally, but he has been arrogant for so long. Gu Qingchen might be the cure for his arrogance.”
