T/N: Face-slapping set up~ and payoff coming soon

Chapter 29: Conflict

The people who had been tested were now sitting in the auditorium waiting for the opening ceremony. Seeing this scene, all of their expressions changed. Ying Yuan, who was waiting for Shi Qingyang and Cheng Ran, changed his face and walked away without looking back.

Cheng Ran was exquisite, cute, and well dressed. Many people accosted him in the queue, but now they all avoided him like Ying Yuan.

After all, while some few people entered Spark Academy through connections, no matter how bad their qualifications were, they were at least rank D. But Cheng Ran didn’t even reach rank E… no, he doesn’t even have radiant energy!

Those who entered Spark Academy with their own qualifications were full of dissatisfaction. Even those who came in through the back door frowned. Even if they gave a large amount of sponsorship money, they wouldn’t be allowed in if they weren’t at least rank D. Why would Cheng Ran be an exception?

Even if they do not discriminate against people who do not have radiation energy, they will discriminate against people who came in through the back door!

“Spark Academy is a radiation energy academy, isn’t it? Why can people without radiation come in?” someone whispered. Gradually, more and more people raised such questions.

Cheng Ran was very sensitive in some aspects. Naturally, he felt the malice of the people around him. He looked at everything around him blankly and got closer to Shi Qingyang.

On the second floor of the auditorium, a middle-aged man looked down at all this and frowned slightly. Seeing this, the people around the man whispered, “Dean, do you want to go down and help him?”

“No.” You Liangping, Dean of Spark Academy, refused. When he was young, he was subsidized by the Cheng family. Only through the Cheng family’s training did he become a level 5 warrior. Naturally, he was the Cheng family’s supporter.

This time the Cheng family offered to let Cheng Ran study here. He was very happy. But Cheng Ran’s situation was very special. Cheng Hong told him not to pay too much attention to Cheng Ran and not to treat him differently

Did the Cheng family want the experience of a non-radiated person? You Liangping wondered if he should go down.

“Of course it’s fine.” Shi Qingyang held Cheng Ran’s hand.

“Can a person who doesn’t even have radiation energy come to Spark Academy?” At this time, someone suddenly stood up. Who was it if not Yin Jinru? “I remember that the rules and regulations of Spark Academy clearly stipulate that only those with at least grade D qualification can enter Spark Academy through sponsorship. What’s going on now?”

Yin Jinru’s face was full of anger, and he looked at Cheng Ran with a foul expression. The Yin family was the largest family in Spark City, but as they usually didn’t bully others, they had a good reputation. Although Yin Jinru was a dandy, at most, he just played around more. He made people envious, but didn’t disgust them. As soon as he said this, he naturally won the approval of many people.

The people who came in with Yin Jinru, who had sponsored them, even more closely surrounded Yin Jinru: “Without radiation energy, he can’t even go into the training room. What can he do to learn radiation? That type of person should just learn to repair cars!”

“How can he learn to repair cars? With that small body, could he be a car repairman? It wouldn’t be a problem for him to serve others, in fact, he might have climbed into someone’s bed to get here.”

“Wouldn’t his skills in bed be very good? Boys of this age are really attractive after all.”

……

These people around Yin Jinru were native to Spark City, and no one else understood the situation of Spark City better than them. They had never seen Cheng Ran in Spark City and naturally didn’t take Cheng Ran seriously.

Cheng Ran was stunned. He didn’t seem to react. He looked around at them, but Shi Qingyang suddenly stopped in front of him: “Keep your mouth clean!”

“What do you care what we say?” A man gave a cold snort to Shi Qingyang: “Are you in a relationship with him? Does he taste good?”

Yesterday, he just learned the cause of his parents’ death. Now someone was saying such filthy words in front of him. Shi Qingyang wanted to tear the mouth of the person before him.

However, when a conflict broke out in the city and hurt people, the only unlucky person would be himself. Thinking of his previous plan, Shi Qingyang pretended to be furious: “I want to compete with you! If you lose, apologize and slap yourself ten times!”

Dueling was a tradition of the college. In fact, students could learn from each other this way. Such learning was supervised by teachers and robots. Once someone was seriously injured, the duel stopped immediately.

The place where duels were conducted had very weak radiation energy, and fighters could not carry weapons, so the duels were never life-threatening.

However, generally, only radiation energy warriors would agree to compete. These new students were only 16 years old. Most of them barely have radiation energy. How can they compete with each other? Were they supposed to jump and bite at each other?

“You don’t want anyone to say anything, it makes me think you’re really in a relationship?” The boy laughed again, but Yin Jinru didn’t say anything except the provocation at the beginning. At this time, his eyes were even more confused.

“Cheng Jiafu, shut up!” At this time, Yin Tiancheng suddenly came in from the outside. He glared at Cheng Jiafu angrily. After Cheng Jiafu hid his head to the side, he looked at Cheng Ran: “Sorry, they are not sensible.”

“It’s you?” Cheng Ran recognized Yin Tiancheng, but his face was still at a loss.

“Let those people be evil first, so you can come pretend to be a good person?” Shi Qingyang said bluntly, thinking of Yin Jinru’s reaction.

Yin Tiancheng’s idea was really this. He didn’t understand Cheng Ran’s identity. He was more worried that someone wanted to control Spark City, so he naturally wanted to test Cheng Ran.

As soon as Cheng Ran came, he won over Shi Qingyang, who had a quarrel with the Yin family. Who could guarantee that he was not pretending?

Seeing that Shi Qingyang even proposed to fight, Yin Tiancheng doubted even more: “Shi Qingyang, I have no malice… You still don’t apologize?” In the latter sentence, he looked at Yin Jinru and said.

Yin Jinru and the rest were afraid of Yin Tiancheng. Although they were unwilling, they all apologized: “I’m sorry.”

“Those guys must not be radiation warriors if they can’t even participate in a duel. Do you want to replace them? Whoever loses will slap himself ten times.” Shi Qingyang didn’t seem to hear what he said and defied him.

Yin Tiancheng paused and quickly agreed: “Shi Qingyang, I apologize to you on their behalf. If you need to fight to forgive them, I will accompany you.” He investigated Shi Qingyang. Before meeting Cheng Ran, he had never learned radiation energy at all. Although he followed Gu Changjin to the training room every day lately, it had only been a few days, and Shi Qingyang looked very tired after every training. Maybe the training was not radiation energy at all, but physical skills.

Smelling the medicine scent from Shi Qingyang and seeing the dark circles under Shi Qingyang’s eyes, he was more sure of this.

Most people didn’t like Cheng Ran, and now Shi Qingyang was being aggressive. Yin Tiancheng saying this now gave him a more elegant impression.

“Now that you’ve promised, don’t take back your words!” Shi Qingyang squinted and didn’t speak any more. He took Cheng Ran to his seat.

The teachers of Spark Academy were different from those teenagers who were at an impulsive age. After reading Cheng Ran’s information, they knew Cheng Ran was different. They may not like Cheng Ran, but they would never make a fool of him.

Finally, their attitude was to ignore them and continue to test the rest.

Lines of letters appeared on the curtain of the auditorium. Such a policy once attracted the dissatisfaction of many educators who felt that it would affect social relations. However, in the face of the increasingly cruel living environment and the ever-evolving mutated beasts, human beings had to make changes.

Moreover, although everyone had qualifications, it was not that no one couldn’t break through. At the same time, there were also people who had rank B qualifications but could only become level 1 and level 2 warriors in the end.

“He Ming, radiation capacity: C+; radiation adaptability: C+”, a familiar name appeared on the front screen. Not long after, Shi Qingyang saw a young man walk near him. At first, he showed off all over his face. When he found that Shi Qingyang didn’t respond, he gave him a fierce stare.

Wasn’t this the same student he used to want to compete with in his old school?

The result of double C+ was very good in Spark Academy, but the most outstanding one was Yin Tiancheng, who had a double B-.

In addition to Yin Tiancheng, there were several B-C+ or C+B- people, and one more person, whose impact on everyone was no less than that of Yin Tiancheng.

“Xie Chucui, radiation capacity C+; the radiation adaptability is B+.” The higher the radiation adaptability was, the higher the control of the radiation energy was. This girl had such a high radiation adaptability, her control would be very stable in the future.

Moreover, such people were best suited to become pharmacists.

One could choose pharmacy at Spark Academy. When Xie Chucui went up, Shi Qingyang saw teachers staring at her. Later, they called her toward them. Most of these teachers were pharmacists.

After the opening ceremony, it was time for dinner. Students could also go home by themselves. After all, school only officially started tomorrow.

But at this time, no one left at all, probably because Yin Tiancheng made some efforts. Now through word of mouth, everyone knew that Yin Tiancheng wanted to compete with Shi Qingyang.

After sitting on his seat, Cheng Ran kept checking things with his contact device. At this time, he finally looked at Shi Qingyang: “Qingyang, do you really want to duel him? But… Can you not go?”

“No.” Shi Qingyang smiled.

“You’re doing it for me, so should I compete with him instead? Slapping is nothing anyway…” Cheng Ran added. He just checked Yin Tiancheng. Others said that the man was very powerful and learned to fight from childhood…

Can someone who can’t even move him onto the bed really duel in his place? Shi Qingyang was speechless and could not help touching Cheng Ran’s head: “I will win.”

Yin Tiancheng would promise to fight with him, most likely he was already able to use radiation energy. Maybe this was what he learned when following him and Gu Changjin to the practice room every day.

Yin Tiancheng wanted to take this opportunity to show his hand. It was not certain who would win.

“Then you must knock him down.” Cheng Ran completely believed in Shi Qingyang.

“I will.” Shi Qingyang smiled. He had participated in such duels countless times. If the opponent was an adult level-1 radiant warrior with combat experience, he might not win, but Yin Tiancheng was only 16 years old.

“By the way, Shi Qingyang, what are bed climbing and bed sports? I’ve been looking for it for a long time, but it’s all blocked.” Cheng Ran pointed to his contact terminal.

This was the highest level of information blocking, wasn’t this applied for children under the age of 10? Shi Qingyang took a look at the contact terminal and silently turned his head away.
