Zheng Nan's gaze locked directly onto Chen Shu, clearly having come prepared.

He took a few steps forward, and the others dared not approach, even retreating a few steps.

After all, upper-grade students always carried an aura of intimidation, a universal rule in school.

Zheng Nan slightly looked up at Chen Shu and sneered.

"So you're the damn Chen Shu?" he said, reaching out his right hand to pat Chen Shu's face.

Chen Shu remained unfazed, instantly grabbing Zheng Nan's wrist.

At the same time, three options appeared before his eyes.

[Option 1: Let go of Zheng Nan's hand, allow him to pat your face, and smile obsequiously, saying, "Brother Nan, that feels great." Reward: Title 'He Who Knows When to Yield is a Hero', Effect: Appetite increases by 50%.]

[Option 2: Seriously say, "Brother, you've got the wrong person, my name is Zhang Dali." Reward: Golden Slime size increases by 10%.]

[Option 3: Directly counterattack and show your prowess. Note: Zheng Nan is a Level 6 Beast Master. Reward: Skill Book: Dominant Body.]

Chen Shu's mouth twitched, almost laughing out loud at the first option.

The content was so ridiculous, and the reward was even more absurd.

A title that increases appetite? Truly, 'He Who Knows Food is a Hero.'

With no time to think further, he chose the third option.

He had beaten up a Level 9 Beast Master wanted criminal before, so a mere Level 6 Beast Master was nothing.

Chen Shu's left hand held him firmly, while his right hand swung fiercely.

Bang! "I'm the damn Chen Shu, got a problem?"

In an instant, Zheng Nan's head snapped to the side, his brain buzzing.

Are students this violent nowadays?

What happened to the universal school rules?

The fear of seniors?

Though a Level 6 Beast Master, Zheng Nan was thin and no match for Chen Shu.

"You looking for trouble?!" Zheng Nan's face turned livid, fists clenched, feeling a surge of anger rising from his chest.

"What? Want to summon your Contracted Spirit?" Chen Shu's right hand formed a palm and slapped again.

According to the official Beast Master regulations, summoning Contracted Spirits at will was not allowed.

If a Contracted Spirit injured someone or caused a scene, the Spirit Suppression Bureau would investigate personally.

To maintain social stability, China had enacted various strict laws.

"If you dare summon, we'll call the Spirit Suppression Bureau." The students of Beast Class Five threatened.

Fights were usually minor scuffles, but summoning a Contracted Spirit to harm someone was a different matter.

"Got the guts to come with me to the school's Beast Hall!" Zheng Nan felt his anger surge, not expecting the other party to be so ruthless, catching him for a beating.

"You think I'm as stupid as you? Coming to get beaten?" Chen Shu sneered, his tone dripping with sarcasm, making Zheng Nan's anger spike. "I bet you've played too much Plants vs. Zombies."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Zheng Nan, having taken several slaps, was a bit dazed and instinctively asked.

"Your brain's been eaten away. Last time, I'm asking, I'm the damn Chen Shu, any problems?"

Chen Shu lightly patted Zheng Nan's face, looking arrogant.

Everyone was momentarily stunned,

The thick fog made it hard to tell who the villain was.

"No... no problem..." Zheng Nan said, feeling aggrieved, finally choosing to back down.

If he'd known this guy was so tough, he would've brought more people.

"Alright! Disperse!" At this moment, the homeroom teacher, Fang Ke, leisurely entered the classroom.

"Chen Shu, what are you doing?"

"Teacher Fang, we were just playing around. Xiao Nan recently advanced in Beast Rank and wanted to spar with me."

Everyone was speechless; the excuse was too far-fetched.

Which Beast Master, upon getting stronger, would choose to fight personally instead of going to the Beast Hall?

"Alright, Zheng Nan, go back to your class."

Fang Ke nodded slightly, completely accepting the excuse.

With a bruised face, Zheng Nan left Beast Class Five, casting a venomous glance at Chen Shu as he left.

"Chen Pi, be careful, Zheng Nan is combative and might do anything if provoked."

Fang Ke warned, having some impression of this senior year student.

Chen Shu dismissed it: "As if he can do anything? Give him a set of college entrance exam questions."

Fang Ke: "...Stop the nonsense, come with me to the office."

Chen Shu's face fell, reluctantly following Fang Ke to the office.

"Chen Shu is really something, beating up the Zheng brothers, who are quite well-known at Nanjiang Second Middle School."

"Indeed, Zheng Yi is the class monitor of Beast Class Three, and Zheng Nan is a member of Beast Class One, definitely future key university students."

"Will Chen Shu face retaliation? If he's ambushed, it could be trouble."

Everyone discussed, feeling a bit worried.

Though Beast Masters couldn't summon Contracted Spirits at will, in secluded places, who knows?

As long as it didn't cause serious injury or death, the Spirit Suppression Bureau wouldn't thoroughly investigate.

"I think the chance of Chen Shu being ambushed is low..."

The aloof Xia Bing said softly.

Everyone was taken aback, then felt it made sense.

Though Chen Shu's Beast Rank wasn't high, he was incredibly cunning,

And he never played by the rules, always managing to pull off something astonishing.

"Teacher, I really didn't hit anyone, Zheng Nan came to me just to discuss something."

"What was the issue?"

"He asked if I was Chen Shu, and I answered him kindly."

Fang Ke was speechless, "Then how did he get those injuries?"

"Every time I answered, he got emotional and kept hitting his head against my hand, leaving me bewildered."

Looking at Chen Shu's innocent expression, Fang Ke couldn't help but sigh.

How can you be so calm, spouting such nonsense with a straight face?

"Alright, I won't pursue it, since he started it."

Fang Ke already knew and hadn't intervened, intending to let Chen Shu teach Zheng Nan a lesson.

"Zheng Nan brought it on himself, but what you did to Zheng Yi was wrong."

"Fights between Beast Masters aren't allowed for students to participate personally, or how would we explain injuries to parents?"

If everyone acted like Chen Shu, the school would be in chaos.

From a young age, students were taught that the human body is fragile and that battles should rely on Contracted Spirits.

Contracted Spirits have strong vitality and can recover from severe injuries.

But if a person dies, it's all over.

"Teacher, I was just showing him the dangers of the world. If he goes to the Dimensional Realm gate, ferocious beasts won't just target his Contracted Spirit."

"If you can't protect yourself, even the strongest Contracted Spirit is useless."

"Spare the rod, spoil the child... cough, create a strong person, I was just trying to train them."

Fang Ke was momentarily convinced, left speechless.

"I suppose my words have deeply touched your soul."

Chen Shu clasped his hands, "Teacher Fang, take your time to ponder, farewell!"

Fang Ke: "..."
