There were a total of four girls in Yu Man's dormitory. The reason they shared the same dormitory was because all four of them were from Qingze Town.
Yu Man was the youngest among them, and she was the only one who came from Qingxi Village. The other three girls usually took good care of her. Although the four girls were relatively poor students, after three years of living together, their relationship was closer than that of real sisters.
The four of them had only sensed origin ability this year. It was reasonable to say that a bright future had finally arrived. However, Lei Bao had sent someone to pass on the message last night that he wanted to "impart his cultivation experience", causing the four of them to suddenly feel a great fear.
The eldest sister, Zuo Min, had always been calm. After thinking about it, she still comforted her three friends: Isn't it just 400 star coins?
Just give it to him. We trained for three years and finally became origin ability users. We can't let anything happen at this juncture. Just treat it as spending money to buy safety. After passing the exam, there will still be a bright future waiting for us.
Don't lose the big picture for the small. Bear with it for a while. Ah Man's conditions aren't good. I'll help you pay for it …
Since it was the eldest sister who got the attention, the four sisters continued to go to the fifth floor's practice room early in the morning. Everyone didn't dare to slack off for a moment because their respective families were doing their best to support their studies.
However, just as she pushed open the door of the practice room, Zuo Min felt that something was wrong because Lei Bao's group had already arrived.
Lei Bao himself was sitting in front of the podium, surrounded by more than ten men and women. She recognized almost all of them: Jin Xiaoqi, Hao Wei, An Xiaoan, Du Ziteng, Zhu Yiqun … and the most terrifying of all, "Hong Mei".
Hong Mei's real name was Hong Mei, and she was also a senior student of Listin Academy. She was originally very talented, but after entering the academy, she was obsessed with plastic surgery. For the past two years, she would go to the beauty center every few days to have her face changed. After plastic surgery, she looked like a product that didn't even look like a product. Her appearance couldn't be considered ugly, but it was incomparably strange: colorful short hair, a face that was as sharp as a nail, and her cheekbones were particularly prominent. She looked like a snake spirit.
Of course, he didn't pass the first exam, but he transferred to the North District's Fist Force Faculty, Class 1. Under Teacher Jiafa's guidance, his strength improved by leaps and bounds. He was one of the top students who had a chance of passing the exam this year.
And because she had fought a few beautiful fights with people in school, her fame spread through the North, West, and South districts, so it was homonym for Little Sister Red.
This Red Sister had a strange hobby. She did not like to deal with male students, and she was especially hostile towards females. Whenever Lei Bao and the others caused trouble for the females, it was always Red Sister who dealt with them. Her methods were rather brutal.
It was said that the attack on Yu Man's dorm mates outside the school was secretly ordered by Little Sister Hong.
When they saw Hong Mei in the practice room, Zuo Min and the others felt that something was amiss. Looking at Hong Mei's black leather jumpsuit and shiny boxing gloves that extended to her elbows, Zuo Min could already smell the danger. She turned her head and whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Something's wrong. Ah Man, leave here first and find Teacher Xu."
As soon as Yu Man turned around, she felt a gust of wind. Before she could see the person clearly, Hong Mei had already blocked her path and looked at her with a smile, "Hehe, since you're already here, don't be in a hurry to leave."
Zuo Min frowned and asked coldly, "What do you want?"
Jin Xiaoqi, who was below the podium, had already stood up. Her face was very gloomy, "Same old rules. Aren't you guys practicing?
We're here to teach you fist techniques today. It's voluntary. There's no coercion. "
The muscles at the corner of Zuo Min's eyes twitched. She replied coldly, "We're students from the West District, and we also have our own fist technique teacher, Teacher Xu Weimin. We don't need students from the North District to teach us, right?"
This was a typical case of wishful thinking. Lei Bao and the others were already here, and things had already reached this point. There was no point in saying these things.
Jin Xiaoqi snorted coldly, "The North District's fist technique course is obviously not comparable to the West District's. We're here today to help our students better cultivate. You can leave now. If you miss this opportunity, don't regret it in the future."
This was a blatant threat. Seeing more than a dozen people staring at her, Zuo Min sighed slightly, "Okay, Sister Qi, how do you want to collect the tuition fees?
We'll just pay. "
Hao Wei stood up at this time. The screen on his wristband was already turned on, "Same old rules, 400 star coins per person. Points are fine too, just transfer it to my number."
"Okay."
Zuo Min had no choice but to turn on her wristband as well. After the screen lit up, she entered her number and password and transferred 400 star coins from her personal information card.
With her taking the lead, the second sister, Jiang Lili, and the third sister, Akasu, could only lower their heads and pay the money.
Hao Wei kept his right hand raised, keeping the screen in the state of currency transactions. However, when it was Zuo Min's turn to walk up, she finally said, "Wait."
"What do you want to do?" Jin Xiaoqi immediately stared at her.
Zuo Min said, "I'll pay Ah Man's share for her."
Lei Bao, who had been sitting in the chair without speaking, finally said lazily, "You'd better not pay for her."
Zuo Min said, "Why?"
Lei Bao leaned forward slightly, looking down at her like a leopard, "Because her tuition fees are different. I'm afraid you can't afford it."
Zuo Min couldn't take it anymore. Her tone had a hint of anger, "Why are they different?"
Lei Bao was too lazy to pay attention to her. Hao Wei spoke for Lei Bao, "Ah Man, 400 star coins is not enough. You have to pay 4000 star coins."
"What did you say?"
Zuo Min was furious. Four thousand Star Coins was equivalent to four years of tuition for a student. Not to mention that she could not afford it, even if she could, she would not hand it over. This was no longer as simple as a "protection fee", it was simply robbery.
Lei Bao turned his head and glanced at Red Sister, "It seems that her hearing is not good. She can't hear what we are talking about. Go and make her hear clearly."
Red Sister appeared in front of Zuo Min in the blink of an eye. Zuo Min couldn't react at all. Red Sister's palm slapped Zuo Min's ear, causing her to fall to the ground.
This slap caused Zuo Min to see stars and her nose to bleed.
"Sister Min." Yu Man and the other two exclaimed and ran over.
Red Sister smiled and glanced at Zuo Min who was lying on the ground, "Hehe, did you hear clearly this time?"
"You!"
Yu Man's eyes were filled with anger, "Why do I have to pay 4000 star coins? This is not fair."
"Fair?"
Red Sister smiled again as if she was looking at a pitiful worm, "In our Norse Empire, have you ever seen any fairness?"
Yu Man understood what she meant. The Norse Empire advocated force, and Listin School was no exception. Did you think the school didn't know about "protection fee"?
That would depend on who was collecting the fee.
Zuo Min crawled up from the ground, her eyes filled with anger, "You mean … if we can beat you, we don't have to pay the fee?"
"Ha!" Red Sister smiled even more happily, "You think a worm like you can beat me?"
"I'm not a worm," Zuo Min retorted angrily.
Red Sister touched the gloves on her forearms and said proudly, "If I say you're a worm, then you're a worm."
Zuo Min clenched her teeth. She could tell that Lei Bao and his group weren't here to collect protection fee. They were here to deal with the four of them.
Seeing her unconvinced expression, Red Sister became even more interested, "Don't be unconvinced. If you have the guts, then come and try. You'll know that I'm not lying. Don't even think about beating me. If you can even land a hit on me, then I'll consider it your win. I'll even refund all the fees to you, but …"
Her tone changed again as she pointed at Zuo Min, "If you can't hit me, then you still have to pay 4000 star coins."
Zuo Min gritted her teeth and said, "You said it yourself."
"I said it, so I'll keep my word." Red Sister hooked her finger at her, "Come, come, come and hit me."
