He had made himself a reputation after fighting on equal terms with Zhang Yue.
“Brother Jiang, since your physical capabilities have grown a lot recently, want to test how strong your punches are?” A male student flattered.
His name was Li Dong, with a life force of 0.8, which was considered outstanding in the class, top of the crop. However it paled in comparison to Jiang Li and Zhang Yue.
It used to be that many people wanted to suck up to Zhang Yue, however, Zhang Yue cared not for little characters, and Jiang Li was much more amiable and easy to approach.
“Ye Jiang Li, let’s test your physical capabilities.”
A few girls chimed in, chattering away.
Before, they would have paid no attention to Jiang Li, but now they had also crowded around him. Jiang Li recognized that power brought status.
Guo Meng also received attention, and felt great about himself.
“Ok, I’ll try it.”
Jiang Li walked in front of a measuring instrument.
It was as tall and wide as two people, with a sandbag connected to a holographic computer that could accurately calculate the force of a punch.
Hai!
Jiang Li was relaxed as he made a slashing gesture at the sandbag, creating air ripples. Halfway upon impact he formed a first at a speed that was visibly unfathomable. His hands struck the sandbag with great force.
“Fist Power: 0.8 tons!”
Numbers appeared on the holographic screen, with an A.I voice declaring the stats.
“Wow! 0.8 tons!” A girl started to scream.
“Zhang Yue only have 0.76 tons when he tested… So basically Jiang Li has surpassed Zhang Yue in terms of fist power?” Li Dong was shocked, but he didn’t show it. His suggestion to test Jiang Li’s power was to see how strong the latter had become, but he never thought it would exceed his expectations by this much.
A point to note was that Jiang Li had not used his legs to propel himself in the punch. If solely by fist he could reach 0.8 tons, it was scary to imagine what would happen if he had given it his all.
Jiang Tao could reach 0.9 tons. Jiang Li could easily as well, as long as he used his full power.
But there was also another student nearby, also tall and handsome. However he acted distant, as if too prideful to interact with people. It was in fact Class Captain Zhang Yue.
Three outstanding characters of the school Zheng Wenbing, Yang Wu and Zhang Yue gathered together, staring down Jiang Li.
Of course, Zheng Wenbing was the centre of them all.
His family was the most powerful, and his own physical capabilities were crème de la crème. In last semester’s exams, his life force had already reached 0.98, a breadth away from 1.
Once you have a life force of 1, your status would change immeasurably. Not only could you do pretty much anything at school, you also possessed great status even in society.
The army, police and government bodies craved such students.
“It was easy, not worthy of praise,” Yang Wu nodded his head, and looked towards Jiang Li.
“Brother Bing is here, aren’t you going to send your greetings?”
“Everyone is a fellow student,” Jiang Li couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s not like you’re a gang or anything, why would you need to be greeted? When did such rules apply in school?”
“Such reckless words,” A student sneered. “Brother Bing, want to bash him up first?”
Other students huddled in and glanced at Jiang Li was if he was prey. It seems it wasn’t the first time they had done something like this.
“You’re very brave.” Zheng Wenbing waved his hands, beckoning the others to stay put for now.
“Your brother Jiang Tao is strong, and looks down on me. But what are you relying on? Are you perhaps riding on your brother’s power and influence?”
“What do you want from me?” Jiang Li scanned the sides. He had been surrounded.
If it were his former self, he’d feel great pressure, but now he craved for battle. “Don’t tell me it’s about stopping Jiang Tap interacting with Yelanie Lu? I can’t control him, so finding me is useless.”
“Calling you here today is for you to help me do something,” Zheng Wenbing chucked aside the towel, “I have a packet of stuff here. When your family eats, put it inside Jiang Tao’s bowl. Afterwards I’ll give you 10,000 star coins! You have never seen so much star coins in your life, have you?”
“What, you want me to defile my brother?” Jiang Li had a weird expression on his face. Two hundred years ago in the 21st century, there had been cases of students that were jealous of another student’s accomplishments, and resorted to food poisoning. Zheng Wenbing was also attempting the same ploy here.
To think Zheng Wenbing would try to kill Jiang Tao just because he beat him in a fight.
