Chapter 34: MMA Club

Translator: AbyssrulerEditor: Lucas

This Physics Department guy was just too much. Who the hell did he think he was?

Wang Zheng ignored the insults from the Math students, as he was absorbed into solving the equation. Although the math problem was tricky and deviated from what he was used to, it was still within his capabilities. Besides, the deviation was only very slight. Wang Zheng preferred to finish what he had started.

After spending an hour on the problem, Wang Zheng had more or less completed it. He exhaled in relief as he checked the time. Sh*t! It was already 2 PM! This activity had taken up so much of his time! Wang Zheng quickly rushed out of the math classroom and ran towards Xiao Fei's office.

As Wang Zheng left, the Math Department students were left absolutely speechless, their eyes wide in shock. Some of them were muttering curses under their breath while others were even making rude gestures.

Wang Zheng walked away, leaving behind him a deathly silent classroom.

After finishing his task, Wang Zheng had no more trouble from Xiao Fei. She was very busy and did not have time to constantly fuss over her protégé. She simply reminded him to attend her classes punctuality.

After his ordeal with Xiao Fei, Wang Zheng went for a quick lunch before heading over to the MMA club. In a regular school, such clubs would typically be less popular than other more conventional clubs. However, as this was a military school, the MMA club was one of the three largest and most popular clubs.

As a result, the space allocated to the MMA club was extremely large. The school had even allocated a special area to the club, specifically for sparring purposes. The club's facilities were truly lavish and extravagant.

”Hello, who might you be looking for?” a pretty girl asked.

”Hi Miss, I'm here to join the MMA club. Student Meng Tian recommended that I sign up.”

It was expected that polite individuals were treated better, and the pretty girl was happy at the way Wang Zheng had addressed her. ”You're really good with words ; ) The Vice President is here, just follow this corridor to the end and make a right turn. They are currently in training.”

Wang Zheng politely nodded his head before following the pretty girl's directions. Before long, he could hear muffled sounds of grunting, and he felt restless with anticipation.

He emerged from the corridor into a wide open training area. There were over 10 students energetically sparring with one another. Meng Tian was one of these students. Wang Zheng watched as she elegantly smashed her sparring partner back with a single kick. It was truly a sight to behold.

Although her sparring partner was wearing rubber guards, she yelped in pain as both of her arms went numb.

There were both male and female members in the MMA club, and Wang Zheng was surprised to find that a third of the members were female. Traditionally, women did not pursue such aggressive sports, but it seemed as if the women of today were more proactive in learning how to protect themselves.

What Wang Zheng was most concerned about was what the training facilities provided. A quick scan of the area showed a complete set of training equipment. But Wang Zheng was even more impressed by the gravity room[1]. There was a sign next to the door that warned people against entering the gravity room while it was in use. F*ck, this was too extravagant!

Conventional training methods could no longer satisfy Wang Zheng. As such, having a gravity room at his disposal was absolutely wonderful news.

When Meng Tian saw Wang Zheng, she immediately walked over to greet him. ”I told you, didn't I?” she said, pride evident in her speech.

Wang Zheng did not hesitate in giving his response. ”This is great! I would love to join the MMA club!”

”Meng Tian, who is this b*stard? He can't be from the Mecha Department, right? I've never seen him around before.” An obnoxious-looking guy commented as he strode over to join the conversation.

Actually, this guy was staring daggers at Wang Zheng. He did not like how Meng Tian had chosen to approach Wang Zheng, and judging from her body language, it appeared that she was giving him preferential treatment!

”Wang Zheng is from the Physics Department,” Meng Tian replied. ”Student Wang, this is Senior Guan Tao from the Mecha Department. He is also a Vice President of the MMA club.”

Guan Tao gave a smile and extended his hand. ”Ah! So, you're the Wang Zheng that Xiao Tian has been talking about! I am Guan Tao, Vice President of the MMA club and also Vice Captain of the Dragon God Corps.”

Wang Zheng returned the handshake. ”Our school still employs mercenary soldiers?” he asked.

”Yes, in CT. The Dragon God Corps is considered to be the best team in the Asian Region. Our team Captain is Ma Xiao, who is also the MMA club's President.”

Guan Tao smiled cheerfully at Wang Zheng before suddenly flexing his muscles to tighten his grip on their handshake. Yet Wang Zheng's expression did not change. He nonchalantly replied, ”It is an honor to meet you, Senior Guan Tao.”

Meng Tian laughed. Wang Zheng had never even heard of Guan Tao or Ma Xiao before; what honor was there in him meeting them?

Guan Tao saw that Wang Zheng did not even flinch at his deathly tight handshake. It was impressive that while Wang Zheng's build was not particularly large, his grip strength was still quite monstrous! But Guan Tao still did not back down from attempting to scare his junior. ”Xiao Tian, you know the club rules. As Wang Zheng is not from the Mecha Department, he has to pass a test before he can enter the MMA club.”

Meng Tian nodded her head. ”I agree. Wang Zheng, shall we spar for a bit?”

Guan Tao quickly stepped in, saying, ”You don't need to worry, I will spar with him! And besides, I am free for the afternoon.” He turned to Wang Zheng. ”Student Wang, follow me to the sparring area! Do not worry, I will be gentle.”

Despite his beguiling words, Guan Tao had every intention of humiliating Wang Zheng! Everyone in the vicinity was watching them. Guan Tao was going to properly discipline this b*stard and make an example of him to the rest of the MMA club.

”Come, pick whatever weapon strikes your fancy! We have wooden swords, nunchucks, and a whole lot more.”

Guan Tao gestured towards a rack of weapons. With a competition about to start, the surrounding students halted their sparring and gathered around the Vice President and the new guy.

Wang Zheng shrugged his shoulders. ”It would be better if we kept things simple.”

”Did this guy just offend Guan Tao?”

”He is such an idiot! Remember that one guy who flirted with Meng Tian? Guan Tao put him in the hospital!”

”I think the new guy is just unnecessarily stirring up trouble. Meng Tian doesn't like this sort of guy. The Captain is a much better fit for her!”

”How would you know? Maybe Meng Tian likes this sort of guy.”

”Who does this chump think he is? Coming in here and making a scene?!”

”Who knows? Although, I do think newbies need to be taught a lesson! They need to know their place!”

Wang Zheng ignored the hushed whispers. He took off his shoes and stood on the sparring platform. Guan Tao was already waiting in front of him with a combat stance.

”Bring it!” Guan Tao beckoned with his hand. As a senior and a leader of the club, he had a reputation to uphold.

In front of such a large audience, Wang Zheng could not help but show off his skills. He slowly walked over to Guan Tao, and as he lifted his arm, he lashed out in a kick.

Plonk.

Guan Tao was knocked onto the floor. He lay there dazed, sprawled like a frog on its back.

Everyone was shocked. This was totally unexpected! Guan Tao was angry now, and he did a kip up to get back on his feet. This b*stard was too sneaky; he feinted with his arm and got a surprise attack in!

Little did he know that Wang Zheng was merely playing with him.
