Chapter 83 Do you know him?
After refining the dragon flame, Jiang Han left the cultivation room. However, when he left, he had an adorable little fox in his arms. Jiang Han, holding the little fox, attracted a lot of attention, especially the female students, whose eyes were sparkling. It was unclear whether they were looking at Xue Ling or at Jiang Han.
"Wow, that little fox is so cute, I want to reach out and pet it!"
"By the way, who's that handsome guy? Is he from our Thunder Academy? I've never seen him before."
"I don't know him. I'll ask a guy later."
"·····"
On the way here, Shao Lei told Jiang Han that in half a month it would be the new challenge day of Lei Academy, and he should prepare in advance. The challenge day of Lei Academy is mainly to urge students to work hard in their cultivation. The higher the ranking, the more cultivation resources will be allocated. The top five students will have the opportunity to enter the Three-Step Tower for cultivation.
Jiang Han was naturally unwilling to miss this opportunity to enter the Three-Step Tower for cultivation. However, it would probably be quite troublesome to break into the top five of Thunder Academy next week. After all, how could a student who could rank in the top ten of Thunder Academy be an ordinary person?
Ring ring~, the phone in my pocket rang.
Jiang Han took out his phone from his pocket and answered the call, asking casually, "Hello, who is it?"
"Jiang Han, what do you mean? You didn't even tell me you were coming to register at school. Do you want me to come pick you up?" Mo Fan's cheeky voice came from the other end of the phone.
"No need, the reporting is all over and you're not coming to pick me up, get lost (ノ`Д)ノ."
"Are you free? I found a really good crayfish restaurant near the school, want to go grab some tonight?"
"Sure, I'll definitely go if you treat me, hahaha."
"I'll treat you, I can easily afford a crayfish dinner. By the way, let me introduce you to a good buddy tonight, he's super loyal and doesn't skimp on money."
"Okay, see you tonight."
······
The Pearl River Delta is exceptionally beautiful at night, with colorful neon lights everywhere. A few hundred meters from the entrance of the Pearl River Delta University, there is a night market called Fatty's Food Stall, where you can see many people drinking, eating barbecue, and bragging.
Jiang Han smelled the aroma wafting from the food stall and said, "Hmm, it smells pretty good, but I wonder how it tastes."
"Hey, Jiang Han, you've finally arrived! I thought you were going to stand me up!" Mo Fan greeted him with a smile.
Beside Mo Fan was a boy with brown hair, dressed in a pure white tracksuit. When the boy saw Jiang Han walking over, he greeted him in a friendly manner: "You must be Mo Fan's brother, Jiang Han. My name is Zhao Manyan, and I'm his roommate."
"Hello, hello." Jiang Han also greeted Zhao Manyan with a smile.
He didn't care that Mo Fan had met Zhao Manyan beforehand. After all, Mo Fan going to school early would definitely cause a series of chain reactions, so it was reasonable for him to meet Zhao Manyan in advance.
"Come on, come on, what are we still doing outside? Let's go inside. I've been wanting to eat crayfish here for ages." Mo Fan excitedly led the way for Jiang Han, with Zhao Manyan following behind them.
After finding a seat, the owner quickly brought out the crayfish. Mo Fan said generously, "Come on, eat, eat, it's on me today, don't be shy."
"Are you sure? That boss, bring me another one..." Jiang Han's words were cut off by Mo Fan before he could finish.
"Damn it, Jiang Han, don't go too far! Do you know how hard it is for me to earn this money?" Mo Fan said unhappily.
Jiang Han slapped Mo Fan's hand away and said calmly, "Get your paws off me, you're affecting my appetite."
"You..." Mo Fan took a deep breath, trying his best not to get angry. "I called you here today to ask if you're going to participate in the beast fighting competition in a few days. If you do, I'll just admit defeat."
"A beast fighting competition?" Jiang Han was slightly taken aback, not understanding what Mo Fan meant by the beast fighting competition.
Zhao Manyan explained casually, "This beast fighting competition is, to put it nicely, a welcome program for new students; to put it bluntly, well, it's just a beast fighting competition. If they win, Mo Fan and his Summoning Department will be the focus of the entire school; if they lose, they'll be a laughing stock."
"Oh, so it's this match. I'll see how it goes. If it's possible, I'll go back and have a go."
Jiang Han remembered the opening ceremony program at Mingzhu Academy. This program was Mo Fan's chance to show off. If he didn't go, Mo Fan might actually get to show off. So he decided to go and join in the fun.
"Holy crap, Jiang Han, are you kidding me? You're really going?" Mo Fan stared at Jiang Han in shock. He hadn't expected Jiang Han to go back and join in this kind of fun. He had originally planned to take the summoning class and show off. If Jiang Han went, winning would probably be a long shot.
"Yes, is there a problem with me participating in this freshman beast-fighting competition as a freshman?"
"Um, no problem, then you can participate."
Jiang Han patted Mo Fan on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I'll try to go easy on you."
Mo Fan gave Jiang Han a resentful look before continuing to eat crayfish. He couldn't beat Jiang Han in a fight, so he could only vent his frustration by eating crayfish. As for his original plan to show off, it was probably going to fall through.
Jiang Han, you just wait. I'll tell Xin Xia bad things about you later, hehe, then...
Jiang Han and Zhao Manyan chatted and laughed, ignoring Mo Fan who was frantically sucking on the crayfish.
······
A few days later, after the welcome program started, Jiang Han said goodbye to Director Shao Lei and went to the Qing Campus to participate in the welcome program.
As he left, Shao Lei said with a smile, "Well, it's fine to participate in the freshman program, but go easy on them. I'm afraid you'll hurt the summoning freshmen if you go too hard."
The Beast Fighting Tournament is not only the most discussed program across the entire school, but also the most entertaining program in the Qing Campus in recent years.
As soon as Jiang Han entered the Qing Campus, he saw promotional pages featuring summoned beasts hanging everywhere on campus. The entrance to the Qing Arena was also decorated with posters of students who had performed well in previous beast fighting competitions, all of them incredibly flashy.
The Qingdou Arena is incredibly grand and imposing, with its dueling arena even larger than a football field. Having hosted several beast-fighting tournaments, the arena is jokingly referred to by students as the "Beast-Fighting Cage." The arena features tiered seating on all four sides, arranged neatly, easily accommodating tens of thousands of people. It's estimated that only top-ranked academies like Mingzhu Academy could afford to build such a arena.
The welcome program was scheduled for the evening, so many students lined up right after lunch. When Jiang Han entered the Qingdou Hall, he saw that the venue was already full of students. Following the flags of each college, Jiang Han went to Lei College and found a seat at random.
As soon as Jiang Han sat down, students nearby started discussing it. After all, there were only so many people from Lei Academy, and even those who weren't in their class had definitely seen him before. But why hadn't they seen this silver-haired youth before?
"Hey, who's that person? Are they from your class?"
"No, isn't he/she from your class?"
"Don't look at me, I'm not from our Class 3 either."
"He's not from our Thunder Academy anymore, so what's he doing here? Could he be a spy sent by the Summoning Department?"
"Impossible. There are only seven people in the Summoning Department, and I know them all. He's not from the Summoning Department."
The young man sitting in front heard some people talking behind him and casually turned his head to glance at them. Unexpectedly, this glance made him freeze, looking at the silver-haired young man and the white fox in his arms with disbelief.
"Xu Zhaoting, what's wrong? Do you know that silver-haired youth?" The girl next to Xu Zhaoting nudged his shoulder.
