‘As soon as these words were said, the four people at the door instantly revealed astonished expressions.

Although they didn’t directly ridicule Chen Nan, the disdain on their faces was almost overflowing.

During the awakening ceremony, everyone in the entire academy knew that Chen Nan’s contracted beast was a sparrow.

‘They were very clear about a sparrow’s strength.

Where did Chen Nan’s confidence come from?

To think he would say such a thing!

‘When the youth standing at the front heard this, he chuckled and said, “Since you’re asking for it, we don’t mind.”

His tone carried a hint of contempt.

With Chen Nan’s strength, how could he be compared to Ji Ren?

He was simply asking for it!

Hearing this, the others laughed as well. Of course, they were only laughing out of ridicule, nothing else.

With Chen Nan’s strength, he probably wouldn’t even be able to kill an ant that had some aggressivity.

“Let’s go. Let’s see how he’ll deal with it tomorrow,” There was a hint of ridicule in the youth’s tone. After he finished saying this, he turned around and left.

Seeing this, the others glanced at Chen Nan and left as well.

Chen Nan didn’t think much of it. After seeing them leave, he returned to his seat.

The second the four of them turned, Liang Feiguang closed the door with a “bang’, instantly isolating themselves from the chatter outside.

When the four lackeys had come to find trouble with Chen Nan, the entire corridor had been filled with people.

‘They were all here to watch the show.

‘As such, they naturally heard Chen Nan’s words and were looking at him strangely.

However, the door had been blocked by Liang Feiguang, so they could not see inside the room at all.

Thus, they started discussing Chen Nan’s words.

“What is Chen Nan trying to do? Apologize or fight?”

“Is there even a need to say that? It must be to fight!”

“But can Chen Nan’s contracted beast fight?”

“Maybe he contracted another one.”

From their words, it could be seen that they think highly of Chen Nan at all.

After all, in this era, the only solution for conflict was for the contracted beasts of both parties to fight.

On top of that, Ji Ren’s contracted beast was very powerful.

In their class, it was likely that only Qing Yunshi could defeat him.

At this moment, with a loud bang, the dormitory door was closed, blocking their vision.

They stood gazing at each other on the spot, at a loss for what to do, and finally returned to their dormitories.

Still in the dorm, Chen Nan didn’t hear their discussion.

After all, their voices had been noisy and he could not hear them clearly.

‘That being said, he more or less knew what they were discussing.

‘They were probably saying things along the line of not thinking highly of him and things like he could not compete with Ji Ren.

However, Chen Nan did not take these things to heart.

‘When his gaze landed on Liang Feiguang, he found that Liang Feiguang was looking at him with a strange expression.

‘There had been a hint of worry in his eyes from the beginning to the end. He looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated.

Seeing this, Chen Nan’s expression didn’t change at all as he said indifferently, “If I don’t do this, I won’t be able to live in peace in the future.”

If he wanted to live a peaceful life in the academy, he had to first get rid of this trouble with Ji Ren.

Otherwise, in the future, Ji Ren would come over and provoke him from time to time.

Coincidentally, Xiaochi had completed its evolution, so he could take this opportunity to see its strength after evolution.

He could also use this opportunity to test the strength of Ji Ren’s contracted beast.

Although Ji Ren’s contracted beast was at the low-rank silver grade, its combat strength was still unknown.

After all, the level was not the only standard for a contracted beast’s strength. It also had to improve its combat experience.

Chen Nan turned around and saw that Liang Feiguang was still looking at him with a strange expression.

At first, he was a little puzzled, but he quickly understood that Liang Feiguang had probably misunderstood him.

However, he did not explain. Anyway, after tomorrow, Ji Ren would probably take a detour whenever he saw him.

After cleaning up, Chen Nan went to bed.

Seeing this, Liang Feiguang did not say much, but he still had a hint of worry in his heart.

He sighed in his heart and also went to bed.

If Ji Ren made things difficult for Chen Nan tomorrow, he would be stand in front of Chen Nan, just like today.

In short, he would always stand on Chen Nan’s side.

‘The next day, after Chen Nan and Liang Feiguang had packed their bags, they left the dorm together and headed for the classroom.

A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at the classroom door and walked in.

‘There were already quite a number of students in the classroom.

Noticing that someone was at the door, all of them looked over.

‘When they saw that it was Chen Nan, their expressions were a little strange.

Chen Nan did not think much of it and walked to his seat that he took yesterday and sat down.

Liang Feiguang also returned to his seat.

Qing Yunshi, who was sitting in her seat, could not help but glance at Chen Nan a few times.

Seeing this, Chen Nan nodded at her indifferently as a greeting.

Qing Yunshi did not give him any response and turned her head to the side instead.

Seeing this, Chen Nan did not say anything and looked out of the window.

Just then, Ji Ren walked in then straight to Chen Nan.

“Last night, were you the one who said you wanted to challenge me?” Ji Ren looked at Chen Nan and asked with a smile on his face.

When he heard this news, he was as surprised as the others.

But he quickly recovered. Since Chen Nan wanted to ask for trouble, then he would fulfill his wish.

At the same time, Ji Ren’s words caused everyone present to be very surprised. All of them turned their gazes towards Chen Nan.

Even though they had already heard about it yesterday, they were still very shocked when they heard it again.

This was because, with Chen Nan’s strength, he was completely no match for Ji Ren.

“Why would Chen Nan make such a request? He’s really stupid!”

“How could he win against Ji Ren? Isn’t he just walking into the trap?”

“Shouldn’t he take a look at the strength of his contracted beast first? To think he’s so arrogant.”

“That’s right. For Ji Ren, dealing with him would be as easy as dealing with an ant.”

Most of the students in the class had high hopes for Ji Ren.

Especially Ji Ren’s lackeys, their reactions were especially intense.

‘They could even imagine how down and out Chen Nan would be after losing.

Just thinking about it made them extremely excited.

‘When Ji Ren heard these words, the smile on his face deepened.

He could not help but raise his chin and look down at Chen Nan.

“I don’t want flies to wander around in front of me every day either, it’s too uncomfortable,” Chen Nan glanced at the people who did not think highly of him and said indifferently.

‘They could think whatever they wanted. He just wanted to resolve the problem and get rid of Ji Ren as soon as possible.

Otherwise, he would only appear in front of him many times in the future.

‘When Liang Feiguang, who was sitting not far away, heard this, he finally understood that Chen Nan had been talking about solving the conflict with the means of a Beastmaster.

It seemed that he had misunderstood yesterday. He thought that Chen Nan was going to apologize to Ji Ren and had been worried that Ji Ren would make things difficult for Chen Nan in the process of his apologizing.

But at this moment, knowing that Chen Nan was going to challenge Ji Ren, Liang Feiguang became even more worried.

He didn’t know if Chen Nan could resist Ji Ren’s attacks.

He was even thinking if he should call Yu Ruyun over.

Even Qing Yunshi, who was sitting at the side, took a few more glances at Chen Nan.

There was a hint of confusion in her eyes.

She didn’t understand why Chen Nan would take the initiative to challenge Ji ren.

After all, Chen Nan should find Ji Ren’s strength hard to resist.

However, on the surface, Chen Nan appeared to be very calm, and he didn’t show the slightest hint of fear.

It was as if he was not the one who issued the challenge.

One could even see a hint of certainty in him that he was going to win..
