Chapter 28: Please Guide Me In The Future, Everyone

An incident had occurred. The news quickly spread throughout the school.

The school battle team had encountered a grade three star beast that had crossed regions during the field training outside the city. The captain, Yan Chiyu, had been seriously injured while protecting his teammates. Therefore, the field training ended prematurely. This news was absolutely devastating for Red Flag High School. Yan Chiyu was the top genius of Red Flag High School. She was the only student at the tenth stage.

Most high school battle teams were composed of five members. They had two main fighters, one medic, one weapons specialist, and one beastmaster. Yan Chiyu was one of the main fighters for Red Flag High School. She was also the only hope for Red Flag High School to make a breakthrough in the Liuhe Base City War God League. But she had fallen just before the opening of the league.

Ding ding ding!

The class bell rang and the students returned to their respective classrooms.

"It's over, it's over."

"When it rains, it pours."

"I heard that Senior Sister Yan got injured saving Bai Qiqi."

"That freshman who joined six months ago that specialized in beast mastery?"

"There's no other way. With Senior Sister Yan's personality, she would never ignore a classmate in danger."

"That's right. Never abandoning your classmates in any situation is the first principle of Red Flag High School."

"Sigh, what do we do now? Our primary fighter is injured, and the league's prospects look bleak."

"I wonder if Senior Fang Buyi, the secondary fighter, can hold up."

"Senior Fang is at the eighth stage, so he should be able to, right?"

"What do you know? The battle teams of those noble high schools have monstrous primary fighters at the Limit Breaking Realm."

"Well, isn't there still that freakish freshman?"

"Fist King Li Xiaofei?"

"Fist King?"

"It's a new nickname. With such powerful fists, what else would you call him if not Fist King?"

"True, he instantly defeated the seventh stage Zhou Yiyou with one punch. What realm do you think Fist King is at?"

"Isn't he at the fifth stage?"

"Idiot, can someone at the fifth stage punch with such terrifying force? He's definitely holding back his true strength."

"Regardless, I can bet that Senior Fist King definitely qualifies for the battle team."

"Do you even need to say that? If he could perfectly fill the gap left by Senior Sister Yan, that would be great."

"Although Fist King is strong, Senior Sister Yan is not that easy to replace."

"That's right. Her strength was not the only reason Senior Sister Yan became the core of Red Flag High School's battle team."

The students had no motivation to study or cultivate until the afternoon self-study period as they whispered and chatted at their desks. They were worried about the results of the War God League, about the fate of their school and their own futures.

At the same time, the principal's office was quite crowded. Li Xiaofei was also present.

"From now on, Li Xiaofei will be a member of the school battle team, serving as the substitute for the primary fighter," announced Chen Fei.

He solemnly handed a set of special battle attire, which exemplified the school battle team, to Li Xiaofei. At the same time, Li Xiaofei's student light-core information was reset. Grandpa Qin, the gatekeeper and dean, was also in the office along with three grade directors. Of course, the other eleven members of the school battle team were also present.

Chen Fei introduced each team member to Li Xiaofei one by one. Captain Yan Chiyu, with her left leg bandaged, sat in a wheelchair. She was a seventeen-year-old girl with a head of thick, boyishly cropped hair. She wore a gold circular earring on her right ear, had willow-leaf eyebrows, and large, round eyes with slightly upturned corners.

This type of eye shape often gave an impression of sharpness and intimidation. Her nose was straight and prominent, and her lips were long but not thin. They seemed slightly pale due to her injury. As she sat straight in the wheelchair, she seemed rather slender, with an estimated height of around 1.7 meters.

When Chen Fei introduced her, Yan Chiyu scrutinized Li Xiaofei with a harsh, critical gaze. Whether it was an illusion or not, Li Xiaofei couldn't shake the feeling that this heroic and spirited female captain looked at him with a deep sense of hostility. The team's secondary fighter, Fang Buyi, was a robust 1.8 meters tall, with thick eyebrows and large eyes, and always wore a confident and cheerful smile on his face.

The substitute primary fighter, Zhuge Long, was a thin and delicate-looking young boy at the seventh stage who smiled shyly at Li Xiaofei. The main healer was Ren Dong, a little girl with a big head, naturally light yellow hair, big eyes, and freckles on her face, giving her a look straight out of a Japanese manga.

The substitute healer, Nan Tianxing, was a muscular man who was as big as a bear and hefted a specially designed large storage box on his back. His 2.1-meter-tall body almost blocked the ceiling light, casting a shadow on the ground. He seemed to be pondering some century-old problem, muttering to himself under his breath.

The main beastmaster, Liu Xiao, was a tall, skinny boy with thick eyebrows. The substitute beastmaster, Bai Qiqi, was slender and looked as delicate as a porcelain doll. Her skin was astonishingly white, almost like she had albinism. At that moment, her face was filled with regret and shame. Yan Chiyu had been injured by the grade three star beast, the Earth-Splitting Green Lizard, while saving her. Bai Qiqi felt guilty, so her eyes were red and filled with tears, making her look even more charming and lovely.

The main weapons specialist, Bai Longfei, was handsome and tall, the kind of guy who was a heartthrob at first sight. He was rather popular at Red Flag High School. The substitute weapons specialist, Du Heng, was a taciturn and dark-skinned young man. The boys and girls all looked at Li Xiaofei, sizing him up curiously.

"Welcome to the school battle team." The secondary fighter, Fang Buyi, greeted him enthusiastically, "I heard about your achievements in the arena, well done."

The other team members also greeted Li Xiaofei one after another. Only Yan Chiyu sat in her wheelchair, saying nothing.

Li Xiaofei didn't mind and smiled as he responded to everyone, "Please guide me in the future, everyone."

He was not stingy with his kindness towards his own people. The other members of the team all breathed a sigh of relief when they realized that the rumored Fist King was rather approachable. They had feared encountering a genius who, despite being extraordinarily powerful, was arrogant and uncooperative. Such an individual, though strong in personal combat, could undermine the team's overall effectiveness.

Chen Fei also smiled in satisfaction as he said, "According to school regulations, you should start from the first year of high school, but considering you’re a bit old, we'll put you in the third-year class."

Li Xiaofei couldn't help but complain inwardly.

This damn principal, he had been so obsequious when recruiting me. Now that he has me, he’s complaining about my age.

Chen Fei continued, "You’ve been running rampant outside for too long and never received a formal systematic education. This won't do. Here's the schedule I've set for you. Starting tomorrow, follow the timetable and attend classes. Try to make up all the basic classes before the High School War God League starts."

Li Xiaofei was speechless.

Good grief. After complaining about my age, now it’s my educational background.

Li Xiaofei was momentarily stunned silent as he looked at his densely packed schedule on the learning light-core pad.

I must have lost my mind to agree to come to school.

"In addition to that, you also need to participate in the team’s joint training," Chen Fei continued. "Little Yan’s injury is severe and she needs three months to fully recover. As the substitute primary fighter, you need to integrate into the team as quickly as possible and be ready to step in immediately if needed."

Unable to bear it any longer, Li Xiaofei said, "What do you take me for? A workhorse or a programmer on a tight deadline? Do I not deserve some rest?"

Chen Fei replied as if everything was perfectly reasonable, "This is all for your own good."

Li Xiaofei was rendered speechless again. He wanted to argue further, but Chen Fei chased him out of the office.

Outside, the sun was shining brightly.

"Li, let me show you around the campus," said Fang Buyi, the vice-captain, immediately extending an olive branch.

"Thank you," Li Xiaofei replied.

He was also curious to find out how the current high schools managed to balance learning and cultivation, and what the combined curriculum entailed.

"Let's all go together," Ren Dong, the manga-like healer, said excitedly.

The other team members silently followed along. Getting to know each other and building camaraderie was part of the team's daily training regimen.

***

In the principal's office.

"Principal, I oppose Li Xiaofei joining the battle team," Yan Chiyu said, her head held, eyes resolute, and expression stubborn. "As for the reason, Principal, you should know it well."

"Red Flag High School has no other choice," Chen Fei replied with a bitter smile. "To be honest, I visited every district in the base city this entire recruitment season, and in the end, I only managed to deceive- ah, recruit him as a student."

"Actually... I think Li Xiaofei is quite good," Grandpa Qin, the gatekeeper, said with a cheerful smile. "Besides, Little Yan, you don't want Red Flag High School to be delisted by the Education Department, do you?"
