Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Now he really wanted to go all out. He had only one goal: to get into the Alain A-Class Military Academy. Before, his chances were slim, but now he had a fifty-percent shot!

"Don't disappear after school today. Train with me."

"No way, you're serious!"

" That's right, even being a gossip reporter requires stamina. Your body is in no shape right now, don't think about running, you're no match for me."

Ma Ka was stunned, he had already accepted this fate, because he had resisted yesterday, but was brutally suppressed, and he was completely powerless against Li Feng.

How could he know that even the best professional assassins might not be able to handle Li Feng's skills now.

Li Feng and the listless Ma Ka walked into the classroom, but after class started, Li Feng became just like Ma Ka. He found that he still couldn't absorb this kind of classroom knowledge. Although it was a bit better than before, it was only a bit, and soon after, Li Feng fell asleep too.

The classes were all open lectures, no one bothered them. The teacher just mechanically muttered that everyone should study hard for exams, then went on lecturing.

It wasn't until the bell rang that some students perked up. Li Feng wasn't very interested in this kind of knowledge; he felt it was a waste of time. Instead of this, it was better to make a new training plan. The physical test would definitely be no problem, but he needed to prepare for other aspects of the military academy exams.

Yeah, that's right, this is the best choice. I'll go check online when I get back.

Suddenly, the noisy classroom fell silent. Ma Ka heavily punched him a few times. Li Feng looked up and saw... it was Tang Ling.

What is she doing here?

This was Li Feng's first reaction. Although Tang Ling was still as beautiful and moving as ever, she could no longer affect Li Feng's heart like before.

And in fact, Tang Ling had hesitated many times before coming. She simply could not swallow this anger. She was going to ask this guy why he stood her up, and without even an explanation!

But the moment she stepped into the classroom, she spotted Li Feng at a glance. This wasn't just seeing with the eyes; in her spiritual perception, Li Feng was so abrupt and unique, there was no need to search for him.

And for the first time, Tang Ling felt a kind of threat. Before, it was just curiosity, but now Li Feng was like a monster in human skin.

After calming herself down, Tang Ling slowly walked toward Li Feng, and the whole class's eyes followed this celebrity—this was a completely different level. Though they were all students, their futures were utterly different; there was no doubt that in a few years, Tang Ling would become a big name appearing in the news every day.

“Li Feng, I'd like to talk to you alone. Do you have time?”

The other students were stunned, like they were dreaming. The princess of GAD was actually taking the initiative to talk to a guy, and that guy was the class's little loser.

Ma Ka was dumbfounded, gripping Li Feng's arm tightly. “Of course no problem, Tang Ling. Hi, I'm Ma Ka, Li Feng's best buddy!”

“Hehe, I know. Nice to meet you.”

After a polite reply, she still looked at Li Feng.

“Go on, keeping a girl waiting isn't gentlemanly!”

Ma Ka was more anxious than Li Feng, practically shoving him out.

As soon as the two left the classroom, chaos erupted inside. Some familiar people immediately surrounded Ma Ka, racking their brains trying to figure out why the princess of GAD would condescend to lower herself to find Li Feng. Unfortunately, Ma Ka didn't know either, because Li Feng said he didn't know—he'd only received an invitation from Tang Ling like a classmate, and they hadn't even exchanged many words.

The two walked in silence. Actually, Tang Ling wanted to lose her temper, but somehow she was suppressed by Li Feng—the strong aura from him made her unable to muster the will to resist.

“Sorry, I wanted to go that day, but I was hospitalized. So, no matter what, I'm really sorry.”

Li Feng broke the silence. Since he'd accepted the invitation, he should have attended out of politeness, but he really couldn't be in two places at once.

“Ah, hospitalized? What happened, were you injured or sick?”

As soon as the words left her mouth, Tang Ling regretted it. At this moment, she should have been questioning him, or reluctantly accepted his apology, but instead she was actually concerned about him.

“Hehe, it's nothing.”

Li Feng didn't mind at all. Watching his calm demeanor, Tang Ling felt an indescribable, complex feeling in her heart—no boy had ever been so composed in front of her.

“That's good, but I still have to give you a birthday present!”

Li Feng was taken aback... The princess of GAD seemed to have everything, and he really had nothing to give.

“What do you want?”

“Hmm... let me think. I'll tell you when I figure it out. Let's go back to class first.”

Watching Tang Ling leave, Li Feng was still a little confused. He didn't understand what about him attracted her. Given her situation, there was no reason for her to waste time on him. Still, he felt happy—being this close to someone he liked was a nice feeling.

But his main goal now was no longer Tang Ling. It was to become a true warrior, even a general!

As soon as Li Feng got back, Ma Ka grabbed him immediately. Everyone else stared intently—this was huge gossip. Human curiosity was always intense.

Ma Ka had his sights set on being a gossip reporter. He might let other things slide, but if he didn't know this, it would drive him crazy. Li Feng was about to confess, but Ma Ka looked around warily.

“Don't say it now. Tell me after school—this is an exclusive scoop!”

Ma Ka looked like he'd just discovered a treasure, excited beyond belief.

“Sure, but you have to finish today's training plan first. Otherwise, forget it.”

“Alright, alright, I know. You're such a nag, man!” Ma Ka didn't like it, but he knew Li Feng meant well. Only a true brother would bother with this.

Looking at the gossip-hungry crowd of guys and girls, Ma Ka felt incredibly smug. This feeling was amazing—he was determined to become the most famous gossip reporter in USE, no, in all of humanity.

Ma Ka's training was simple. At least for Li Feng, it couldn't even be called training. With the gravity device gone, they could only use ordinary training methods. Li Feng did his duty, jogging with Ma Ka and briefly mentioning what happened with Tang Ling during the day. It was nothing special, but Ma Ka listened with gleaming eyes—based on his experience, something was off!

"Kid, you're in luck. With my wit and experience, I can tell: Miss Tang has her eye on you."
