Chapter 442: Defeated in One Kick

Facing these scrutinizing gazes, Chu Yunfan was calm and composed. He did not take these people’s gazes to heart.

“You’re Sha Peng’s teammate?” the handsome youth asked as he stepped forward.

“Yeah, I’m Sha Peng’s teammate,” Chu Yunfan said calmly, “To be precise, I’m his captain!”

Hearing Chu Yunfan’s words, they looked at Chu Yunfan in astonishment. They all knew how outstanding Sha Peng was. Otherwise, how could they have possibly accepted Sha Peng into their team?

They had stepped into the Acquired Stage in their second year. Although they were one in a hundred at Federation University, Sha Peng, who had stepped into the Acquired Stage in his first year, was one in a thousand.

And Chu Yunfan was Sha Peng’s captain?

This was undoubtedly explosive news. They thought that Sha Peng had just invited his teammate. The difference between a teammate and a captain was worlds apart.

It was common for teams to be formed among the students of the university, but if one wanted to become the team captain, they had to be the cream of the crop. Most captains were the strongest within a team.

When they looked toward Sha Peng, he had a tacit look of agreement on his face. The team now looked at Chu Yunfan in a different light.

Sha Peng looked at Chu Yunfan and said, “Captain, let me introduce you. This is my elder sister, Sha Yingying. This lovely lady here is Senior Hu Xiangling. And these two are Senior Liao Fan and Senior Lin Qiuchi.

“Sister, this is my captain, Chu Yunfan, whom I told you about,” Sha Peng introduced both sides.

Chu Yunfan had keen senses. He had instantly taken in everyone’s expressions. When Sha Peng introduced his elder sister, Sha Yingying, he had not said much, but when he introduced the other woman, Hu Xiangling, he was clearly much more enthusiastic. Or rather, he was much more attentive.

Chu Yunfan instantly knew that Sha Peng was probably chasing after Hu Xiangling.

On the other side, when the handsome man, Liao Fan, looked at Sha Peng, his gaze was a little unfriendly. This was especially true when Sha Peng spoke so highly of Hu Xiangling.

Lin Qiuchi, on the other hand, was paying attention to Sha Yingying. Chu Yunfan understood the relationship between these people at a glance.

“Chu Yunfan? Why does this name sound so familiar?” Lin Qiuchi frowned. This name sounded familiar. There were hundreds of thousands of students at Federation University and each of them was said to be heaven-gifted geniuses. There were not many who could become famous throughout the university.

“Oh, I remember now. The one who challenged Jiang Lingxiao to a fight to the death in a year. That’s you, right?” Hu Xiangling said as her eyes suddenly lit up.

Immediately, the gazes directed toward Chu Yunfan changed. Although this matter had grown quiet over the last two weeks, there were hundreds of thousands of people at Federation University. There were not many things that could cause a sensation throughout the university.

The matter of Chu Yunfan challenging Jiang Lingxiao was something that everyone knew.

As everyone looked at Chu Yunfan, their gazes changed.

“You dared to challenge Jiang Lingxiao. You’re quite bold. Others say that you’ve lost your mind, but I don’t think so. I too don’t think Jiang Lingxiao is that amazing,” Hu Xiangling said as she looked at Chu Yunfan in a completely different way than before.

Not everyone had a good impression of Jiang Lingxiao after all.

“Although Sha Peng was the one who brought you here, we don’t accept trash. If you want to join us, you have to pass our test.” When Liao Fan saw that Hu Xiangling seemed to have taken an interest in Chu Yunfan, his face flushed with displeasure. He took a step forward and looked at Chu Yunfan provocatively.

“Chu Yunfan, don’t be mad. This is just what we do. Although Sha Peng introduced you, we don’t know your strength level. We just want to test you first,” Sha Peng’s sister, Sha Yingying, said as she stepped forward.

“No problem. You can test me however you want,” Chu Yunfan said indifferently. He did not care about these tests. Such things were common.

“Good, straightforward! I’m willing to be friends with a straightforward person,” Lin Qiuchi said, “As long as you pass our test, you can join us and become part of the team.”

“All right then,” Chu Yunfan said simply.

“Good. In that case, please excuse me,”

“How do you want to test me?” Chu Yunfan asked as he raised his eyebrows.

“Like this.”

Without another word, Liao Fan made his move. He surged forward like a poisonous dragon. In the blink of an eye, he threw a punch toward Chu Yunfan’s face.

Bang!

All they heard was a loud bang. Liao Fan’s fist was like a spear as it smashed toward Chu Yunfan.

Chu Yunfan did not even frown. He simply raised his hand and blocked this incoming punch that was akin to a thunderbolt. After which, he swept out a kick.

Liao Fan had not expected his attack to be completely ineffective. Chu Yunfan did not even waiver in the slightest. Chu Yunfan’s kick came too quickly. In an instant, the attack landed on Liao Fan.

Liao Fan was kicked head-on.

Bam!

Liao Fan flew backward like a kite with a broken string and spat out a mouthful of blood. The outcome had already been decided. Everything had happened quickly, but Chu Yunfan did not look happy.

When Sha Peng saw Chu Yunfan’s expression, he immediately knew that Chu Yunfan was not too happy. He hurriedly took a step forward and said, “I was the one who called for Captain Chu to join us. Don’t you guys trust my judgment?”

“It’s not that we don’t trust you, but hunting the members of the Monster Cult is a dangerous task. The elite members of the cult are no less than the elite students of Federation University. If an ordinary person were to join our team, they would only drag us down,” Sha Ying said in a serious tone as she stepped forward. She frowned and said to Chu Yunfan, “Why were you so heavy-handed?”

“It was also a conditioned reflex. Who asked him to suddenly attack without giving me a signal?” Chu Yunfan said with a sneer, “You wanted to test me to see whether I have the qualifications to be your teammate, right? Was there a need to attack me without saying a word? If I had been hit, what would’ve happened? Did you think about those consequences?”

Chu Yunfan’s words made Sha Yingying and the others feel embarrassed. They were not people who did not distinguish between right and wrong. It was unreasonable to have attacked so suddenly. If Liao Fan had won, it would’ve been fine, but he was defeated by Chu Yunfan in the blink of an eye.
