Chapter 212: Wheel of Fortune. The Competition Officially Began
“Yes, yes, Student Ye Feng, you are the pride of our class. We all admire you very much. I hope you can progress with great success. Our class has many of your fans. I hope we can witness your glorious journey.”
“Ye Feng, you must do your best to win first place. Don’t let us down!”
In the distance, Lei Jia spoke in a weird tone. The disdainful expression on his face couldn’t wait to jump out and show off to Ye Feng.
Ye Feng saw Lei Jia leading the group and ridiculing him in a weird tone. He immediately felt a little nauseous.
As expected, this level could be seen at once. The few people who greeted him politely just now were all existences that were even more awesome than him.!!
But they knew how to be polite and respectful, and the difference between their qualities was immediately revealed.
Ye Feng shook his head and wanted to leave, but Lei Jia stopped Ye Feng and continued to mock, “Aiya, don’t go. We haven’t finished chatting yet!”
Ye Feng frowned and said somewhat helplessly, “Student Lei Jia, is there anything else?”
“Don’t be in a hurry to leave. Aren’t we preparing to start the draw competition? You’re the person of the moment in our class, so of course you can’t just leave. Isn’t this, everyone is waiting!” Lei Jia said with a smile, his face full of pride.
Ye Feng had long seen through Lei Jia’s character and knew that this guy wanted to find trouble. No matter what Ye Feng said, it wouldn’t do.
Therefore, Ye Feng no longer paid attention to him. After all, because of that incident previously, Lei Jia would definitely hold a grudge. Now, all of his actions could be seen that they were all aimed at him.
Previously in the police station, before Lei Jia fled in a sorry state, he had even left behind a ruthless statement, telling Ye Feng to wait and see for the Promotion Exam.
Now was the Promotion Exam. He would definitely have all sorts of underhanded methods to deal with him. However, Ye Feng didn’t think much of it. No matter how powerful Lei Jia’s internal strength was, Ye Feng would always have a way to subdue him.
After all, his body could contain the ultimate water elemental power. This was one of the four major elements, the water element’s origin inheritance.
Not to mention these people, as long as Ye Feng wanted to, he defeat the entire competition at any time.
However, Ye Feng would not do that either.
Keeping a low profile was the fundamental principle of his development.
“Let’s start drawing lots now!”
On an arena next to the rostrum, a group of people had already stood up. There were more than 40 students randomly counting.
The promotion stage would start with a round-robin battle. Each person had to draw lots to match their opponent.
Now it was the first round, with a total of 109 students participating.
Soon, the number of participants started to be announced. The big screens around the arena started to flash with rows and rows of battle numbers.
“First round, No. 1, Second Grade, Luo Nuo!”
“First round, No. 2, Third Grade, Zhang Manyu!”
“First round, No. 3, Second Grade, Chen Daxia!”
“First round, No. 4…”
“First round, No. 5…”
“First round, No. 6…”
“…”
A series of registration numbers soon reached the numbers at the back.
These students were all selected from more than 400 people. The weakest among them was at least C+ grade. Some of them were even at A- grade. Their strength was several times stronger than ordinary students.
These students were all elite students from all the major classes in the entire grade. They were all qualified to participate in the Promotion Exam. They only came to participate in the Promotion Exam with the belief that they would definitely win.
The number that Ye Feng drew in the first round just happened to be empty. In other words, Ye Feng could directly advance to the second round of the competition.
Of course, the prerequisite was that he could not be defeated by others, or he would be eliminated.
“This Ye guy’s luck is really too heaven-defying. He actually got an empty round from the start and advanced directly. This luck is too good!”
After Lei Jia saw that Ye Feng got an empty round on the big screen, he immediately gnashed his teeth. The depths of his eyes were filled with dense fury, as if he wanted to eat Ye Feng alive.
Liang Gang, who was beside Lei Jia, saw that Ye Feng got an empty round in the first round, and his heart immediately felt an indescribable depression.
He originally thought that he would be able to eliminate Ye Feng in the first round, but he did not expect that Ye Feng would be directly promoted to the second round. This made their plans in the first round, as well as their plan to end the battle quickly, all come to naught.
If it was a battle of attrition, even if Lei Jia and the others had powerful combat strength, they probably would not be able to hold on for that long. After all, their plan was to draw lots and make some adjustments so that they could match up to Ye Feng in the end.
They would take down Ye Feng. This way, they would be able to eliminate him.
After that, whatever rewards and quotas wouldn’t be related to him anymore.
If they could eliminate Ye Feng, this could also be considered as letting Lei Jia avenge his previous humiliation. After all, the quota for him to be promoted to the main campus was extremely limited.
The rarity wasn’t any less than the opportunity to obtain the wind elemental inheritance.
Obtaining the opportunity to obtain the inheritance didn’t mean that one would definitely be able to obtain the wind elemental inheritance. It was just that there was an opportunity.
However, obtaining the spot to be promoted to Cloud Mist Academy meant that his batch of people would definitely become the cream of the crop in Cloud Mist Academy.
After graduating, they would definitely become existences at the level of a mighty figure.
“Hmph! It doesn’t matter if he isn’t in the first round. I don’t believe that he will still be able to take an empty turn in the second round. At that time, he will definitely fall at our feet!” Liang Gang laughed coldly, showing extreme disdain toward Ye Feng.
Lei Jia nodded and agreed, “Yes, not bad. This guy’s luck is indeed very good. However, he should also be glad that he didn’t meet us in this round. Otherwise, he would have died.”
“Big Brother, you can rest assured. We haven’t been able to find a chance to mess with him in the Water Training Hall. Now that it’s a round robin battle, he will definitely have to fight. As long as we enter the top ten, he will definitely be able to match us.” The corner of Liang Gang’s mouth was itchy. He wanted nothing more than to immediately tear Ye Feng apart.
Lei Jia said with a cold smile, “Hmph, this time I will definitely give him a good beating. However, I really want to see just how powerful he is.”
Not far away, Ye Feng had a calm expression and did not pay any attention to the conversation between Lei Jia and Liang Gang.
Ye Feng’s mood was very relaxed because he knew that he would not be eliminated.
He believed that in the future, he would have countless opportunities to torture this group of trash!
Ye Feng also believed that among them, there would definitely be someone who would meet him. However, this did not matter, because Ye Feng was not afraid of anyone.
Just like the white-clothed youth he faced last time, no matter how strong he was, Ye Feng still had a trump card to fight with.
The host looked at all the students and then announced loudly, “Now, the competition officially begins! First round of the competition, Group A versus Group B, both sides, please get ready!”
Ye Feng looked at the center of the ring. There were four small round arenas filled with students. All of them were staring at him as if they were waiting for a good show.
Because there were many people at the beginning, the first round of the competition began in groups. Each side had two teammates.
