Merging with Demon Spirits
Chapter 603 - 436: Crushing
Student council office area, inside the meeting room, the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.
Rong Wei, along with the seven major department heads and fourteen deputy heads, all had unprecedentedly solemn expressions.
Ever since Lin Feng’s squad returned to Red Cloud, they had been on edge, never able to relax.
"The whole school is talking about it, even the instructors, and within half a day, over a hundred people have signed up."
"Since Lin Feng and his team came back, the Jianghu Martial Arts Club has become more and more arrogant, shouting wildly these past couple of days."
"Endure it, there’s no choice but to endure it."
Everyone was discussing, their tones full of worry.
With a cigarette in his mouth, Rong Wei’s expression seemed calm amidst the smoke, but his mood was exceptionally irritable.
Everything had exceeded his expectations.
Be it Lin Feng’s squad’s popularity or their strength.
Now he no longer hoped to suppress the Jianghu Martial Arts Club, only praying for peace and quiet this month.
A month later, he would graduate and leave Red Cloud, at which point whatever happened would no longer concern him.
These past two days, he had been constantly on guard against Lin Feng’s squad, but there was not the slightest movement; everything seemed normal, but it was this abnormal quiet that was worrisome.
This year, as the Jianghu Martial Arts Club developed rapidly, the main task of the student council had been to suppress the Jianghu Martial Arts Club.
After losing their main position, during this more than a month, led by their group of four in the student council, they showed no scruples and launched insane retaliations, with conflicts occurring almost daily.
This month, nearly half of the Jianghu Martial Arts Club’s self-operated stores closed, someone was getting injured every day, and the whole situation was severely damaged, with unrest spreading among the people.
In Rong Wei’s view, even if Lin Feng’s five-member team returned, they could not easily change the current situation.
They just never expected that the Red Cloud Team would win the National College Honor League championship.
This was Red Cloud University’s first championship.
Afterwards, Lin Feng’s squad performed one astonishing feat after another, becoming heroic figures that caused a sensation nationwide and even worldwide.
Eradicating thousands of alien races, slaying over twenty kings and five apostles, thinking of Lin Feng’s squad’s achievements sent chills down Rong Wei and the others’ spines.
Although nothing had happened in these two days, Lin Feng was notoriously vindictive; those who offended him had never met a good end, so this matter could not possibly be resolved so easily.
In these two days, Lin Feng’s squad publicly announced the sealing of the Seven-Star and Eight-Star Space Gates, sparking global discussions, with their popularity soaring once again.
At Red Cloud University, not claiming 100%, at least 70 to 80% of students were their supporters.
"It’s not like we don’t have backing support, Lin Feng’s squad won’t dare to act recklessly; our position is not something they can just take away."
Rong Wei said, comforting everyone.
"Don’t dare act recklessly?"
Liu Lin asked, his tone laced with sarcasm and self-mockery.
Having been kicked out of the main position a month ago, he had been retaliating against the Jianghu Martial Arts Club, and he didn’t really care about the money.
To him, Rong Wei’s words were laughable.
Because at Red Cloud University, the one most daring to act recklessly was Lin Feng!
He always liked to act recklessly.
Whether it was the king’s challenge match, or seizing the main position, sealing the Jade Seal Spatial Gate... he even dared to fish for and slay apostles, so what wouldn’t he dare to do?
They indeed had backing support, but how could they act?
In the Three Heroic Academies, no power could interfere in student conflicts.
And the backing strength behind Lin Feng’s squad was far stronger than theirs!
No comparison at all.
At Red Cloud, might makes right, everything is determined by strength.
Facing his subordinate’s sarcasm, Rong Wei remained silent, knowing well that this was just comfort.
He also knew he was about to graduate and couldn’t stay in this position for much longer, but staying just one more day could earn him tens of millions more, and he was unwilling to leave just yet.
The rest were the same.
With money to share, naturally, they were unwilling to leave easily.
Rumble!
As everyone was still discussing, a deafening explosion sounded, the meeting room shook violently as if an earthquake had hit.
At this moment, everyone’s expression changed.
They came!
Hearing the explosion, they knew Lin Feng’s squad had arrived.
The explosion’s shockwaves caused alarming cracks to appear on the ceiling, dust falling and with several loud crashes, huge stones fell onto the meeting table, making a tremendous noise.
"Let’s go check it out!"
Rong Wei abruptly stood up, skillfully avoiding the falling stones, darting out of the meeting room, with the others quickly following in his wake.
Their guess was accurate; downstairs, a dense crowd had already gathered, at least a thousand people strong.
At this moment, Lin Feng’s squad stood at the forefront of the crowd, watching them with eyes showing a hint of mockery, clearly with no good intentions.
And just as they landed, with a loud crash, the three-story building of the student council collapsed, causing a series of exclamations.
Rong Wei and his group reacted in time and were unharmed, but they looked a bit dusty and disheveled.
"This is the student council; what are you doing?"
Rong Wei did not take action but calmly asked, his gaze sweeping over Lin Feng’s squad members, pausing slightly on Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi, finally landing on Yang Ningbing.
Faced with Rong Wei’s gaze, Yang Ningbing averted her eyes, not daring to meet it directly.
A month ago, they were still teammates in the same squad.
To support her, Rong Wei had even absorbed two support soul skills, yet no one expected things to develop to this point.
"You’re not fit, Rong Wei, you have no qualification to be the student council president."
