Chapter 49 - Battle Royale? (1/2)
”Today we will be electing the class representatives.” With Elder Cai absent as usual since she only wanted to be the teacher of this class to abuse her power, Shen Yi took charge of the lectures while Wu Zhangkong stood to the side in silence.
”A class battle will be held and the final victor will be the class president. Those who do exceptionally well will fill in the other positions. All of you will be going to a practice field later where you can fight to your heart's content. Feel free to make teams if you want to as well.”
As she said that, the attention of all the students in the class were directed to Huang Yu almost immediately. Since Elder Cai had placed him in the first seat first row a few days ago, everyone wanted to show that they were more deserving of that spot than a slacker like Huang Yu who didn't even pay attention in nearly every class.
Hearing those words from Shen Yi, Huang Yu perked up. He raised a hand before asking, ”Ms. Shen, is this a battle royale?”
Shen Yi raised an eyebrow. ”I suppose you could call it something like that.”
A bright smile appeared on Huang Yu's face as he gave a thumbs up. ”Nice~”
”You all have fifteen minutes to prepare. You can do whatever you want during this time, it's all up to you. We will only observe the battle.”
At that, everyone scurried about to form their own groups. The only exception to this was Huang Yu.
Of course, the other students didn't know this. Only Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan had a small inkling of how strong he actually was.
Fifteen minutes passed by in a flash. Shen Yi and Wu Zhangkong led the 101 students of the first grade out of the classroom. They walked down a long hall, venturing into the depths of the school building.
They soon arrived in a large circular room.
”In a moment, all of you will enter an illusory world. It's rather similar to the spirit ascension platform which I ȧssume all of you have been in before.” Shen Yi said. She then shifted her gaze onto Huang Yu. ”And please, do not do anything that might damage the illusory world.”
The other students were all confused at Shen Yi's last sentence, but Gu Yue, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan knew what she was talking about.
*Cough* Huang Yu's snapping half the platform away. *Cough*
Several oval cabins appeared from the centre of the room. Then, all the students deftly went inside them so that they could be sent inside the illusory world.
Huang Yu and Gu Yue chose two of the cabins that were closer to one another before being sent in.

Since she wasn't here at the moment, he might as well go and have a bit of fun with the other students.
He was an Ace rank player in PUBG mobile. He was going to play those kids like a fiddle.

The first vic— classmate Huang Yu found was a large boy by the name of Yang Nianxia. It was really easy to find him since this guy was…
Well, he wasn't really being subtle about where he was with all the shouting out of Tang Wulin's name he had been doing.
Huang Yu dropped down from a tree he had been standing on, causing Yang Nianxia to instantly stiffen up.
'What? How did he approach me like this? I didn't even sense him.” Yang Nianxia thought in shock. He was very confident in his own capabilities and didn't believe that there would be someone his age that could sneak up on him like this.
Huang Yu gave him a smile before waving his hand at him. ”Hello there.”
Yang Nianxia, seeing Huang Yu's distinct features, widened his eyes in astonishment. ”Classmate Huang Yu. You are a bold one, to confront me like this.”
Huang Yu chuckled softly seeing this but he didn't make a move to defend. Yang Nianxia eventually entered a close enough range to attack Huang Yu.
He swung down his massive claw, twisting his hɨps as he did so to provide that extra power to his strike. Noticing that Huang Yu wasn't even reacting, Yang Nianxia thought that Huang Yu wasn't all that the teachers had cracked him up to be.
However, to his surprise, he suddenly felt as if he had hit an unbreakable wall just as his claws were around thirty centimetres away from making contact with Huang Yu's head.
Yang Nianxia instantly jumped back. He was very wary of Huang Yu now. He didn't know what Huang Yu had done, but his thoughts about Huang Yu not being strong were quickly disappearing.
Despite his wariness, Yang Nianxia was a knuckleheaded individual thanks to his martial spirit. He charged forward once again with a flurry of blows this time.
A swipe at the ribs, a claw to the ċhėst, a kick to the knee. Each and every attack that Yang Nianxia did, they were all stopped by an invisible force of nature.
