Chapter 23 Conflict

"Kexin, who is this?" Ma Tianhai walked over to Liu Kexin with a forced smile.

"I am just a nobody, not worthy of your concern." Li Kong looked at the hypocritical Ma Tianhai with a fake smile.

"Oh? Do you know who I am?" Ma Tianhai, who was already on the verge of exploding, was a little ferocious. This kid in front of him was really too hateful, not to mention his tone, even his expression looked like he was asking for a beating.

"Who are you? Don't you know that a good dog doesn't block the road? You are clearly getting in our way, are you afraid that others will know that you are not a good dog?" Zhou Kai became sharp again. What he cared about was how to get rid of this person who pursued Liu Kexin quickly and get enough money for the four of them to eat the canteen on the second floor for a week.

"Brat, you dare to scold Brother Ma, I will tear your mouth apart." The attendant beside Ma Tianhai roared, and then he rushed towards Zhou Kai.

Zhou Kai dodged to the side. The small attendant who missed him turned around and rushed towards Zhou Kai again. Zhou Kai dodged while looking at Li Kong. "Do you think I'm playing with dogs?"

Seeing that his attendant did not defeat Zhou Kai but was fooled around, Zhou Tianhai could no longer suppress his anger. The purple light in his hand flashed and smashed towards Zhou Kai. He was very confident in his attack power. Lightning was the most powerful among many elements. Although this attack was only a test, it was powerful enough.

Looking at the purple light coming towards him, Zhou Kai secretly cried out. This distance was already impossible to dodge. Red light instantly covered Zhou Kai's entire body. He knew that with his strength, it was still a bit difficult to resist this attack. After all, he still did not know magic skills, but he had no other choice.

Just as the purple light was about to hit Zhou Kai, another red light collided with it, and then it slowly dissipated into everyone's ears.

"A sneak attack is not a good habit, which can reveal a person's character. You, as a good dog, have a bad character" Behind Zhou Kai, Li Kong swung the flame in his hand and looked at Ma Tianhai mockingly.

"To be able to defeat my attack with a casual strike, you are not as weak as I thought you were. But I want to know if your fists are as powerful as your mouth." Although the attack just now surprised him, Zhou Tianhai did not care. He was about to break through to the Third Grade. He was still confident in dealing with a new student. The purple light in his hand flashed again.

"Sigh, this person is not only narrow-minded but also small-minded. Can't you see that there is a notice board that prohibits fighting?" Li Kong did not intend to continue to tangle with this person here. He stretched out his hand and pointed at the notice board hanging on a nearby tree, spreading his hands.

This made Ma Tianhai feel like he was hitting cotton. "Oh, so you are afraid? Then you can stay away from Kexin in the future." He put away his magic.

The school had a clear rule that students were not allowed to fight privately on campus. Although not afraid of those rules, there would be some trouble if he broke these rules. Seeing that the kid admitted defeat, Zhou Tianhai naturally compromised to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Li Kong shook his head and extended two fingers. He said slowly, "One, I'm not afraid of you. Two, I have nothing to do with this girl. So you don't have to pester me. I'm also very busy and don't want to waste time with you."

Hearing this, Zhou Tinhai felt the anger that had dispersed instantly surging out again. "Brat, you are killing yourself. If you are a man, then go to the duel field with me. I will make you feel remorseful for what you just said."

The duel field was a place where the school specialized in settling personal grudges for some students. This was why such fighting scenes rarely appeared on campus.

"That's boring. I won't fight."

"Then what do you want to do? It's impossible to hastily end like this."

"How about this? We don't have to waste time talking nonsense. Let's make a bet. This will be interesting." Seeing that Ma Tianhai had taken the bait, Li Kong revealed an evil smile. He also knew a thing or two about the duel field, and gambling was also a popular method of fighting, so Li Kong, who was short of money, naturally treated Ma Tianhai as a fool and ruthlessly took advantage of him.

Zhou Kai, who had originally intended to persuade Li Kong, saw Li Kong's smile and immediately understood that Ma Tianhai was going to be tricked. Although he hadn't spent too much time with Li Kong, he knew that Li Kong wouldn't do something that he didn't have confidence in.

"Oh, then what's the bet?"

"We are poor people. We will bet on the food on the second floor of the canteen for a week." He thought for a moment and added, "I mean the four of us for a week."

"Sure." Ma Tianhai agreed without even thinking about it. It was just a small amount of money to him, but he would be very happy if he won and used the money.

Liu Kexin did not expect that Li Kong would bet with Ma Tianhai. She asked hesitantly, "Are you confident? This Ma Tianhai is a Second Grade Senior-level mage. I heard that he is about to break through to the Third Grade."

"Anyway, it's not my money. Let's take a gamble. Maybe we can earn two weeks' worth of food. Why not?" Li Kong did not care about Liu Kexin's question and answered casually.

Looking at Li Kong's indifferent expression, Liu Kexin was so angry. She had kindly reminded Li Kong, but his guy just ignored her warning.

"Hmph!" Liu Kexin snorted coldly and turned her head to the side. She planned to watch this arrogant person suffer a crushing defeat.

"Very good. To be honest, I haven't had a bet with anyone since I came to this school for a year. You are the first and the last. I admire your courage, so I won't let you lose too badly later."

Hearing Ma Tianhai's answer, Zhou Kai said indifferently, "You don't have to be happy too early. It's not certain who will win or lose. Don't cry when you lose."

"Hmph, let's meet at the duel field after school in the afternoon. Don't be absent because of fear." After saying these harsh words, Ma Tianhai left with his followers.

"Brother Ma, I've found his information. The one who bet with you is called Li Kong. Next to him are his roommates, Zhou Kai, Mo Xing, Liu Leyang." A follower whispered in Ma Tianhai's ear.

"How is Li Kong's strength?" Before he had a dispute with Li Kong, he had asked his followers to investigate him. Although he did not care, he still had to be careful.

"This Li Kong's strength is also at the Second Grade Senior-level, and he also has controlled magic skills. He clashed with Zhao Qingyun at the beginning of the semester. It's better for Brother Ma to be careful." -- - The attendant next to him carefully reminded.

"Second Grade Senior-level in fire element?" Ma Tianhai pondered for a while, but immediately felt relieved - he had been in the advanced level of the second stage for a long time, with a solid foundation. In addition, he was a lightning mage, so his odds of winning were still very high.

The news of the freshman Li Kong and the sophomore Ma Tianhai's duel spread like the wind throughout the campus.

"Hey, do you know that Li Kong and Ma Tianyu will have a duel in the duel field after school?"

"I know. We have to run faster after school in the afternoon. Otherwise, we won't be able to get a seat in the front row."

"Yes, yes, yes. This Li Kong is a little awesome. He had a conflict with Zhao Qingyun at the beginning of the semester, and now he is gambling with Ma Tianhai. He is a born calf who is not afraid of tigers."

"Yes, if we were him, we wouldn't have the courage..."

"What did you say? Li Kong and Ma Tianhai made a bet." In a luxurious room, Zhao Qingyun patted the bench and asked excitedly.

"That's right, Young Master Zhao. This is the school's current uproar." Li Zijian replied excitedly.

"Not only did this Li Kong go against me in every way, he even provoked Ma Tianhai. After school, there will be a good show to watch. You must prepare a good seat for me. I want to see how Li Kong will make a fool of himself." Zhao Qingyun was overjoyed. Ever since he came here, Li Kong had repeatedly stolen the limelight that should have belonged to him. Now that he had provoked Ma Tianhai, he was naturally happy to see it.

"What do you think of this afternoon's duel? Are you feeling pressured?" Liu Leyang stepped forward and asked.

"It's alright. I don't feel any pressure."

"If you really can't do it, I'll do it for you?"

Liu Leyang's words immediately made Li Kong speechless. He did not expect that Liu Leyang who always looked indifferent would say such words. This also indirectly revealed that Liu Leyang's strength might be higher than he imagined.

"Don't worry, I won't refuse when I need your help." Li Kong shook his head. He also wanted to see if his strength had increased recently.

"Yes." Liu Leyang did not say anything else. Li Kong had not forgotten him no matter what he did these past few days. He was naturally very grateful...
