Greene nodded his head. He also wanted to hear what Wang Zhong had to say.
"Hello, Headmaster Bradley. I'm Wang Zhong, the captain of the Tianjing Squadron." Wang Zhong even introduced himself to Bradley before turning around and saying, "Actually, this matter is very simple. Since the recommendation spots belong to the third year seniors, we just need to listen to the opinions of the parties involved." Bradley nodded and nodded. "That's right.
Just as he finished speaking, Hymin was the first to voice out her support. "I'm willing to bet on that spot!"
"Me too!"
"Me too!" Colby and Lily had also spoken up. The four recommended spots for this batch had already been decided internally. They were Reeves, Lily, Colby, and Hymin. Although Reeves had been expelled, there was no dispute over who the remaining three spots belonged to. Even if one insisted on saying that there was still one spot that had yet to be declared, it could only be said that the minority had to obey the majority.
Hymin naturally knew how important that spot was to her. However, if she was still thinking about that spot when her most respected Headmaster Greene and her alma mater were being insulted, could she still be considered a human?
"That's it." Wang Zhong didn't have the same hesitation as Headmaster Greene. He simply turned around.
"It looks like tomorrow's exchange competition will be canceled."
Bradley, Headmaster Greene, and everyone else in the surroundings were slightly stunned. This brat had first confirmed the bet, but now he wasn't going to bet? Only Scarlet gave a knowing smile. After taking care of Wang Zhong in the hospital for a period of time, she had a better understanding of Wang Zhong's character. She could more or less guess what this fellow was going to say, which was exactly what she wanted to say.
Wang Zhong smiled faintly. "Headmaster Bradley, thank you and all the other students for coming. Just as you said, the spots should be left for those who truly need it. We're willing to bet on it."
Just as he finished speaking, everyone in the surroundings gawked. Was he giving them away? Buy one get four free?
This was the academy's property. It wasn't something that a few seniors could decide. If they didn't want it, they could give it to someone else. Not only that, if this matter were to spread, Tianjing Academy would explode.
Headmaster Greene opened his mouth to speak. However, upon seeing the agitated students surrounding him, including his precious granddaughter Scarlet, he decided to remain silent. If he were to speak out to stop them, Tianjing Academy would truly be unable to raise their heads. Taking a step back, if they continued to fall from grace, they would not be able to protect their quota. After all, there would come a day when their reputation and connections would be exhausted.
Bradley was stunned at first, and then he laughed. He had thought that this boy was a little different, but it turned out that he was just a hotheaded young man. He was almost scared by that face. "Haha, young man, you have ambition!"
"Respected Headmaster Bradley, our bet is four slots. What about you? I believe that Headmaster Bradley isn't the type of person who would try to gain something without risking anything, right?" Wang Zhong continued to stare at Bradley with his big, innocent eyes.
"Haha, then let's bet our Adolf Academy's two quotas." The one who spoke was Cecil. He'd been immersed in the memories of the fight between Laura and All-Mouthy King. It was only when Headmaster Bradley mentioned the matter of the 'recommendation quota' that he regained his focus.
Admittedly, Greene was the target of love and respect from the students of Tianjing Academy. However, within Adolf Academy, Bradley was also the person they respected the most! He was also a good headmaster and teacher who wholeheartedly thought about his students. He'd thrown away his relationship with his old friend and face to snatch these quotas. Who was it for? Wasn't it all for them! Wang Zhong didn't have the qualifications to discuss conditions with Headmaster Bradley. Their seniority wasn't even equal, so it was only natural for him to take the spot. As long as he obtained these four quotas, the future of his brothers behind him would be bright!
"Four quotas to bet against two quotas?" Wang Zhong smiled. "That doesn't seem fair."
"Then let's add in ten percent of our Adolf Academy's resources for this year." Bradley waved his hand and looked at Greene with a smile. "Old classmate, your students are a little hot-blooded. Shall we settle this matter?"
Headmaster Greene took a deep breath and looked at the ardent and spirited eyes around him.
Even though he wasn't too optimistic about the outcome of this bet, he knew that sometimes, it was necessary to have the courage to cut off all means of retreat!
He extended his hand towards Bradley. "Then let's listen to the children!"
"Haha, I've finally seen you happy for once, old fellow!"
Both of them clasped their hands tightly as Greene smiled. He didn't blame Bradley for scheming against him. To him, Bradley had betrayed his friendship with his old classmate. However, to the children of Adolf Academy, Bradley had given them a bright future. He was a good headmaster that would be remembered for a lifetime.
Who was right and who was wrong, good and bad? Who could clearly define who was right and who was wrong?
Then let's fight. Regardless of victory or defeat, this world was ultimately a stage reserved for the strong!
The battle was about to begin. At night, the Prodigy Society was brightly lit. Ma Dong had already brought the information over. From the captain to the substitutes, he had more or less detailed information on everyone. Although it wasn't detailed enough, it was enough to be used as a reference.
At that time, there was a bit of courage and even impulsiveness. However, one couldn't rely on luck in a battle. The Tianjing Squadron hadn't been established for long, so there wasn't much of an individual's strength. However, there wasn't much they could do in a group battle. Now that the arrow had been nocked on the bow, there was no choice but to release it. Everyone seriously looked at each other's profiles, as well as the recent combat information that could be found in the OP. These things couldn't be completely relied on, but they could at least be used as a reference.
It had to be said that the entire Prodigy Society turned silent as they read. It couldn't be said that they didn't have a chance, but … the chances were miniscule. Everyone was under immense pressure. If it was just an ordinary exchange, it wouldn't matter. However, this was a gamble for Tianjing Academy's future and dignity. This was no longer a simple matter of victory or defeat.
In reality, all of the heavy responsibilities rested on Wang Zhong's shoulders. He was now the captain … although he was a dispensable captain in the eyes of all the Tianjing students, he indeed had to shoulder the responsibility. It was easy to say vicious words, and anyone could do so. However, tomorrow's duel wasn't a joke.
Scarlet and the others were also silently calculating their possible opponents. However, they didn't delve too deeply into it. After all, there were too many sudden changes in the formation. Coupled with the contrast in strength, perhaps the greatest test this time wasn't them, but Wang Zhong.
Wang Zhong was the last to leave. He repeatedly looked at the video and the profiles of these people. No one disturbed him.
Was it rushed? Perhaps a little. However, a battle would never wait for one to be ready. Furthermore, when would one be considered ready?
