69: Chapter 69 This is the Queen in My Heart
Yun Zhuo saw that guy charging toward him like he didn't care for his life, so he had to squeeze both the front and rear brakes at the same time.
But driven by inertia, the front of the bike still slammed into the fellow.
Fortunately, after his Body Integration with his War Princess, the fellow's mecha body was heavy enough. He even hugged the front of the bike and used his feet to brake against the ground, sliding backward for dozens of meters before helping Yun Zhuo come to a stop.
"You crazy bastard, are you trying to die?"
"It's me, Brother Zhuo, Jiang Longji."
"If I didn't know it was you, kid, I would've run you over long ago. Would I even give you a chance to say your last words?"
The people on both sides of the battle were the teachers from No. 3 Middle School and Seventeenth Middle School.
When they saw Jiang Longji charging over, they spared a glance.
But seeing him chatting with Yun Zhuo, they stopped paying attention.
"No, Brother Zhuo, No. 3 Middle School is bullying us now. Since you've run into this, you can't just stand by and watch, right?"
"No. 3 Middle School?"
Yun Zhuo had heard the term No. 3 Middle School from others more than once, and from their tone, No. 3 Middle School was the Number One among the high schools in Dawn City.
The elite of the elite.
He had thought they would all have three heads and six arms, but seeing them today, their reputation far exceeded the reality.
Their fighting looked like they were just trading choreographed moves.
But to be fair, a scan with Breaking Delusion and Seeing Truth revealed that those guys were already at Ranks 16 or 17, and one guy was actually already Rank 19!
They were leveling up incredibly fast.
"Holy crap, how exactly are those guys leveling? How are they so fast?"
I have Imperial Rank talent and I'm only Rank 16 today. Is this a reversal of the natural order?
"Huh, Brother Zhuo, what did you say?"
Yun Zhuo retracted his gaze and glanced at Jiang Longji, who was blocking his path: "Why aren't you at Rank 10 yet, kid? Look at them—that guy firing cold arrows is already Rank 19."
Yun Zhuo was actually wronging him; the last time they met, this fellow was only Rank 8, and now he was already Rank 9.
Yun Zhuo felt like a long time had passed, but in reality, it hadn't even been two full days.
To be able to gain a Rank in two days was already quite good for Jiang Longji, who was Heaven Rank Middle Grade.
After all, this wasn't going from Rank 1 to 2; it was from 8 to 9.
"No, Brother, what are you talking about? Hurry up and get down here to help.
Otherwise, we from Seventeenth Middle School will have to call them 'Grandpa' whenever we see them from now on."
Yun Zhuo really couldn't muster any interest in this kind of kids' fight; fighting them felt a bit like bullying.
However, that Gu Xiandeng from No. 3 Middle School—the guy firing cold arrows whom Yun Zhuo had just 'praised'—fired a cold arrow straight at the two of them.
This chaotic battle was twenty-one against thirty-five. No. 3 Middle School had fewer people, but their Ranks were generally higher than those from Seventeenth Middle School.
Seventeenth Middle School had lower Ranks, but they had the numbers.
Plus, since both sides were fighting without any real strategy, they were actually evenly matched for the moment.
The teachers were already used to this; after all, today was only their second day of actual combat, and the number of Mutated Beasts they had killed could be counted on their fingers.
By the end of the month, it would be about right. At that time, as long as they could reach Rank 15 or higher, many would be able to get into first or second-rate martial academies.
As for super-first-rate martial arts universities, they hadn't even thought about it, and Dawn City had never produced such a student.
But Gu Xiandeng didn't think that way. He was already Rank 19. Even in No. 3 Middle School, where Geniuses appeared in droves, he was a Top Dog existence among Geniuses.
Now, after fighting a group of Small fry around Rank 10 for so long, he still couldn't crush them.
The key was that both sides were tangled together, and he was afraid of friendly fire.
This left him with a stomach full of anger and nowhere to vent. Just then, seeing Jiang Longji separated from the group, he fired an arrow without a second thought.
Before Jiang Longji could react, he had already been pushed away by Yun Zhuo using Gravity.
The flying light arrow flashed through the gap that had just opened between the two of them.
Jiang Longji was stunned, then turned his head to look at Gu Xiandeng outside the crowd.
"Dammit, that little piece of trash is playing dirty, actually using sneak attacks! Brother Zhuo, he even shot at you, aren't you going to mess him up?"
"Kids fighting, not interested!"
"What? No way, the guy almost shot you in the mouth."
"You... do you believe I'll slap you to death?"
As Yun Zhuo was speaking, three more consecutive arrows came straight for him.
Bang, bang, bang. As the three consecutive arrows approached Yun Zhuo, it was as if they hit an invisible barrier and were all deflected by Gravity.
But Yun Zhuo was angry now.
If the target had been Jiang Longji, being hit would at most cause him to de-integrate from his War Princess.
But he hadn't performed Body Integration with Teacher Su yet. If he were really hit by those three consecutive arrows—even if only one landed—he would truly be killed.
Gu Xiandeng was even angrier. That trash actually dared to call my fighting 'kids fighting'!
I'm already Rank 19, what Rank are you, you trash? You actually dare to look down on me.
The teachers from both sides had also seen it just now, and although they were startled, no one stepped out to stop it.
Gu Xiandeng's Rank was miles ahead of the others. Besides his own extraordinary talent, it also meant he had a deep background.
Teachers weren't like students; they had experienced the harsh beatings of society and had learned to be smart. They knew which students could be bullied and which ones had to be treated like little ancestors.
Besides, he hadn't hit anything anyway.
Just as Gu Xiandeng drew his bow and gathered power to give Yun Zhuo a vicious shot,
Yun Zhuo and Teacher Su had already completed their Body Integration and transformation, appearing instantly in front of him.
Gu Xiandeng only saw his vision go dark, and before he could react,
Yun Zhuo had already delivered a slap.
It sent him flying right where he stood, spinning dozens of times in the air.
By the time he slammed into the ground, still dazed and disoriented, Yun Zhuo had already stepped on his face.
He snatched the bow away and with a 'crack,' snapped it into two sections, turning it into nunchucks.
Before the students could react, the teachers from both sides were dumbfounded.
"Is that kid from your Seventeenth Middle School?"
"Seems like it."
"What do you mean 'seems like it'?"
"I know what you want to ask, but I really don't know that kid. He's always been led by Wu Song."
"Wu Song? Then it's no wonder. That ruffian clearly isn't any good. To use such a heavy hand during a spar between classmates..."
By now, Gu Xiandeng had regained consciousness. Seeing the nunchucks in Yun Zhuo's hand, he was so furious he screamed like a stuck pig, struggling desperately under Yun Zhuo's foot.
That was his War Princess's Lifebound Weapon. Although it could be repaired during a Second Transformation, the War Princess's Rank would drop by at least one.
Don't be fooled by the fact that Teacher Su's foot wasn't large; it pinned the fellow down as firmly as a nail, making it impossible for him to move even if he wanted to.
His pig-like howling immediately caught the attention of the other students, and everyone began to stop fighting.
"What's going on? Isn't that No. 3 Middle School's Genius Tyrant Gu Xiandeng? Why is he being stepped on?"
"Is that guy stepping on him from our school? Such a domineering mecha, how come I've never seen it before?"
"Right? It's like a Queen, simply too perfect!"
"To be honest, Gu Xiandeng isn't losing out this time! To be stepped on by a Queen like that, I couldn't get that chance even if I begged for it!"
As soon as those words fell, a circle of 'you understand me' looks were cast around, followed by everyone nodding in agreement.
Although female-form mechas weren't rare, it was the first time everyone had seen one with such perfectly proportioned body dimensions.
Pointed high heels with gilded patterns were firmly planted on the ground. Beneath the slit of the white skirt were long legs with lines so sharp they could reflect light. The curve of the waist and abdomen was tight and smooth, and then there were those things, like nuclear bombs.
Not to mention that long snow-white hair and the spotless body; the cold and noble aura was like a layer of light, making it impossible for anyone to look away.
Someone couldn't help but murmur: "Seeing this today, I finally realize how shallow my previous imagination of a Queen was."
Hearing these words, the teachers from No. 3 Middle School were so angry their blood pressure almost blew the crowns off their heads. Their hands throbbed, wishing they could slap these students to death.
This was a spar between students, so as teachers, it wasn't appropriate for them to intervene.
But what was wrong with these brats? It was one thing not to help, but they were actually admiring the enemy.
"Are you all just going to keep watching like this!"
(Everyone said the last picture of Teacher Su wasn't good, so here's another one. I definitely won't lie this time.)
