Chapter 118: Stop Jinxing
Xu Zhenguo frowned subconsciously when he heard this. He had more or less heard of this student, Zhou Hao. After all, Zhou Hao was very close to his daughter, so it was impossible for him not to know.
However, he had never interfered because he was afraid that his daughter would become rebellious.
But now, it seemed that his daughter had fallen for him completely.
He knew very well that no matter what difficulties his daughter encountered, she had never asked him for help.
“Dad!” Seeing that Xu Zhenguo did not say anything, Xu Ling could not help but shout again.
“Ling’er, how do you want me to help your classmate?” Xu Zhenguo suppressed the annoyance in his heart and asked.
Xu Ling hesitated. “Dad, didn’t your company develop a special medicinal pill to increase your cultivation level recently? I want to give that to Zhou Hao.”
Xu Zhenguo refused flatly. “No!”
Xu Ling was stunned. She did not expect her father to refuse so decisively without any room for negotiation. “Dad, why?”
Xu Zhenguo also realized that his tone was wrong and hurriedly explained, “Ling’er, the side effects of that medicinal pill are too great. Although it can immediately help your classmate advance to a high-level martial artist, he will be stuck at this level for the rest of his life.”
Xu Ling shook her head. “Dad, but… but that’s not what you said last time!”
“Last time… Last time, it was because we didn’t finish testing the side effects!” Xu Zhenguo looked at Xu Ling and couldn’t help but say, “Ling’er, I know you’re being kind, but this kind of thing can’t be rushed or forced. Even if you help your classmate this time and let him pass the combat assessment, what about next time? Can you help him forever?!”
Without waiting for Xu Ling to speak, he continued, “Now that you have the Ice Muscle Body, you’re destined to be extraordinary in the future. You should give up on those ordinary students!”
Xu Ling was not stupid. On the contrary, she was extremely bright. When she heard this, how could she not know what her father meant? She stood up from the sofa and said expressionlessly, “Dad, I understand. Continue with your work!”
As she spoke, she walked quickly to the door.
“Ling’er…” Xu Zhenguo shouted anxiously.
Xu Ling paused for a moment. “Dad, Zhou Hao was the one who discovered and found the Ice Needle Mushroom. If not for him, your daughter would have died in the mouth of the Blackman Demon Python. In addition, I’m not saying this on purpose to help him. I’m only stating the facts. If Zhou Hao is expelled from the training class this time, I will also leave the training class with him!”
With that, she walked out of the office without looking back.
Xu Zhenguo looked at his daughter’s back and smiled bitterly. He regretted saying those words just now.
“I will personally go and meet this Zhou Hao tomorrow! I want to see why my daughter is willing to do so much for him!”
…
The next morning.
On the training grounds of Qu City High School.
There was a dense crowd of people. All the year three students and teachers were sitting in the audience seats, and there were many parents on the high platform.
It was just like the previous combat assessment.
“The same combat assessment is being held at the same place. I wonder if there will be any accidents this time?”
“Stop trying to jinx it. I still want to live for a few more years!”
“Now that the wilderness area is almost cleaned up and there are only a few high-level demon warriors left, how could the foreign races invade our Qu City High School again?”
“That’s right. Don’t scare yourself!”
Most of the year three students were discussing in low voices, and the parents of the training class were also talking to each other.
“Director Xu has really nurtured a good daughter!”
“That’s right. The Ice Muscle Body… That’s a special physique destined to be extraordinary. When Director Xu becomes successful in the future, don’t forget to support us!”
“Director Xu must have received a lot of invitations from the large factions in Yanjing City these days!”
Xu Zhenguo couldn’t stop smiling as he listened to the surrounding parents praise him and his daughter.
Soon, Instructor Shen walked up to the high platform.
Xu Zhenguo hurriedly stood up and saluted.
“Zhenguo, I remember you were quite unlucky back then. I didn’t expect your daughter to turn out to be so lucky!” Shen Jing chuckled.
Xu Zhenguo smiled and touched his head. “I must have transferred it to her. By the way, Instructor Shen, about my daughter…”
Shen Jing waved his hand and interrupted, “Zhenguo, if you trust me, then take my advice and don’t be in a hurry to make your decision. Take your time and see how things go after a while.”
Xu Zhenguo immediately nodded. “Of course I trust you, Instructor. I’ll leave my daughter in your care!”
Not long after, all the students of the training class arrived. The school started distributing the standard T-3 armor.
After Wang Ming, Li Ji, and the other students finished wearing their armor, their expressions became solemn. Their armor was T-3, meaning that in this combat assessment, they were at least going to face demon warriors.
Indeed, Instructor Shen’s voice sounded from the high platform.
“In this combat assessment, the minimum requirement is to kill two low-level demon warriors!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the audience immediately went into an uproar.
