"You guy...!"
Moriyama got angry again when he heard this.
Although everyone knows that Wu Yi is very powerful, it is like putting the world champion and a wild Siberian tiger in the same cage.
The fighting power of the King of Fighters is indeed amazing, but it is still not enough when facing a strong adult tiger... unless this is a King of Fighters who can slide.
Especially since humans have entered modern society for so many years, they are no longer as ferocious as wild animals in fighting for their lives.
"Okay, forget about him. Now is not the time to talk about this."
Hashimoto reached out to stop him in time, glanced at Koenji who continued to walk forward on his own, and shook his head.
"Let's go back and find the teacher first."
"makes sense."
After a brief exchange, the group no longer hesitated and quickened their pace to return to the place where they started.
Listening to the chaotic footsteps behind him gradually fading away, Kouenji raised his hand to smooth down the golden hair hanging in front of his forehead, shook his head as if he was a little bored with their panicked behavior, chuckled, switched to jogging mode, and began to continue running slowly forward along the predetermined route.
"Well, I have to speed up, maybe I can catch a good show."
On the other side, Wu Yi, who was carried by the wild boar for hundreds of meters, finally stopped in a flat open space in the mountains and forests.
To be precise, he jumped out of the car on his own initiative.
As soon as Wu Yi jumped out of the car, he felt the wild boar on its back suddenly brake and stop. Its four sturdy hooves scratched four shallow grooves in the not-too-wet mud.
It turned its huge pig head and looked cautiously at the bald monkey in front of it, which was obviously different from the previous ones, and made a low hissing sound in its throat as a warning.
Theoretically, at this time you just need to face the wild boar head-on and back away a little bit without making eye contact with it to escape danger.
But Wu Yi refused.
Facing this ferocious beast that exuded a primitive aura all over its body, he actually stretched out with ease and then got into a stance.
"Well, although the process was a little different from what I expected, the result was good overall."
"Then come on now."
Volume 225: Chapter Rescue? No need at all
The view turns back to the entrance of Linjian School.
Almost an hour had passed since the students set out. Onodera, who always gave people a serious and taciturn impression, now moved a rattan chair and sat outside the door. He raised his head and closed his eyes, letting the sunlight shine on him, quietly enjoying this rare quiet winter morning.
At this moment, someone's voice mixed with unhurried footsteps came from behind.
"What's going on? A man lying in a place like this like an old man, ready to retire?"
Tomoya Mashima came up from behind, came to the rattan chair and glanced at Onodera who was dozing off, his tone sounded very familiar.
It's impossible not to be familiar with each other. After all, there are only a few classes in Gaoyu High School. Apart from the teachers of various subjects, there are only a few class teachers. They see each other every day in school.
"Hmm? Oh, it's Majima..."
Onodera opened his eyes, looked, and immediately closed them again.
Tomoya Mashima was obviously not satisfied with this answer and couldn't help but click his tongue.
"Are you thinking it would be better if it was Xing Zhigong who came to see you?"
Onodera exhaled softly, "Unfortunately, I'm not very good with that type of woman."
"No way, isn't the Star Palace good?"
"As an old classmate of yours, you should know whether she is good or not and what kind of person she is, right? If she is really that good, why don't you take action?"
"Isn't it because we are old classmates who are too familiar with each other? It would feel weird if I did it..."
"Okay, just take what you said as the truth."
One was the head teacher of Class B of Grade 1, and the other was the head teacher of Class B of Grade 3. At the gate of Linjian School where no one else was around, the two of them were gossiping aimlessly like old friends.
After a while, the sound of someone running could be heard faintly on the dirt road in front of the school gate, coming from far away and getting closer, and it didn't sound like just one or two people.
"what happened?"
Onodera frowned and stood up from the rattan chair.
He had been teaching at Gaoyu High School for much longer than Majima, and had experienced similar exams at least two or three times, so he had some idea of what kind of results students would get if they participated in such assessments.
That’s 18 kilometers of mountain road. How can you run back and forth in just one hour?
Obviously not possible.
“Hashimoto?”
Tomoya Majima also narrowed his eyes and observed the situation. When the familiar yellow hair came into his sight, he couldn't help but speak out.
Onodera, who was standing next to him, saw the scene a little later due to the angle, but he still quickly recognized that the student was from the group he was in charge of.
"What's going on? Why are you back?"
"Old...teacher...something happened..."
As soon as Hashimoto stopped, he bent over, supported his knees and gasped for breath. He had been running all the way back at the speed of a 100-meter sprint. Fortunately, his football foundation was still there, but he was still very tired.
"Wu Yi... he was dragged away by a wild boar..."
"Wu Yi?"
"Wild boar?"
Majima and Onodera both exclaimed in surprise, but their emphasis seemed to be completely different.
“Yes…that’s right.”
Hashimoto barely supported himself on his knee with one hand and pointed behind him.
"When we were less than two kilometers away... a wild boar suddenly jumped out, and Wu Yi was dragged away by the wild boar in order to protect us..."
"Is anyone hurt?"
Giving Majima a look to indicate that he should call the school headquarters immediately, Onodera continued to inquire about the details.
"No, no, no one is injured."
Perhaps feeling that this was not enough to explain the situation, Hashimoto added another sentence stumbling over it.
"Student Wu Yi was not injured at the time. He was taken away riding on the back of a wild boar. We don't know what happened now."
"……what?"
Onodera suddenly felt that he was lacking in imagination.
On the other side, Majima, who had walked some distance from the school gate, successfully dialed the number of Chairman Sakayanagi, and the middle-aged man's gentle voice came from the phone.
"It's so early, what's going on, Majima-sensei?"
"Yes... I'm sorry to disturb your rest, Chairman Sakayanagi. There was indeed an accident."
After a simple greeting, Mashima Tomoya got straight to the point and quickly recounted in detail what had happened at the Linjian School.
In fact, theoretically speaking, this is purely a case of bypassing the chain of command to report something, and it is the kind that cannot be bypassed any further.
In a company, it can probably be compared to a subsidiary manager calling the headquarters' top CEO early in the morning to report, which is enough to be fired ten thousand times.
But this is the only exception.
"Wild boar?"
Slightly different from what Majima expected, Chairman Sakayanagi's voice on the phone was quite calm.
"Okay, I got it. Let the group of students who are coming back to report rest today. I will send someone to help. You just continue to do what you need to do. The training and exam will proceed as normal."
Majima hesitated.
"Does this... require us to go and rescue?"
"Need not."
Need not?
The male teacher had a big question mark in his mind.
"Well, as I said, you just continue as usual, and I'll take care of the rest."
Chairman Sakayanagi paused for a moment, a hint of amusement in his voice.
"As for Wu Yi, just let him play as he pleases. He knows his limits."
"Uh...oh, okay, goodbye, Chairman."
Mashima Tomoya hung up the phone a little numbly.
"What does the school say? Should we ask the nearest police station to intervene?"
At the school gate, Onodera noticed that Tomoya Majima had ended the call and immediately turned around to ask about the situation.
"No, no need."
Mashima Tomoya shook his head blankly.
"The chairman said he would send reinforcements and told us not to worry about it and to continue with our exams and training as normal."
"……what?"
Another male teacher's brain also short-circuited.
At the same time, in an unknown mountain forest, in a clearing, a man and a pig were engaged in an unprecedented wrestling match.
Wu Yi was seen leaning forward with his legs pressed against the ground, one in front and one behind. His hands were tightly grasping the two sharp tusks of the wild boar, and his muscles were tense and bulging.
The wild boar roared and snorted, and its hooves kept scraping across the ground, raising large amounts of dust.
This is a wrestling match between life and death.
If Wu Yi couldn't hold on first, he would be pierced in the abdomen by the wild boar's two long tusks and die.
But if the wild boar loses its strength first, it will be knocked down on the spot by the human in front of it and killed by a punch to the throat.
They had been in this position for nearly a quarter of an hour.
Wu Yi grinned when he realized that the force from the fangs in his hand had weakened.
"Hey, what's going on? Is this not okay?"
As he said this, he took a deep breath, took a decisive step forward, and the wild boar moved back half a meter.
Another step, another half meter.
When the third step was taken, the wild boar could no longer hold on, and sat back staggering, neighing.
Wu Yi saw the right moment and let out a low shout. He suddenly raised his arms with force. The veins under his skin jumped like angry snakes. He grabbed the fangs and threw the whole wild boar away.
Half a second later, as the mountain-like body fell down with a loud bang, the ground shook violently.
Wu Yi did not rush forward and punch him to death.
He just watched quietly, watching the wild boar that he had thrown away struggle to get up from the ground, then slowly walk to his front and crawl down obediently.
This is a gesture of surrender.
Without any extra words, Wu Yi sat astride the wild boar and patted its back.
"Then - Hog Rider, let's go!"
Volume 226: Chapter : Boar Rider!
As time passed, the Golden Crow rose higher, and as the hour hand on the watch gradually approached the position of nine, Chabashira Sae, who was at the turning point on the top of the mountain, finally welcomed the arrival of the first group of students.
That was the third-year group headed by Horikita Manabu.
They passed through dense and rugged forests and arrived here as the first in the whole grade.
Although most of the students are from Class C in the third year, at a glance it seems that no one in the group has fallen behind, the only problem is the ranking order.
If Hoshinomiya Chie was here, she would probably have already come forward and said something like "thank you all for your hard work, you are first place, that's great, really good" and so on.
Unfortunately, the person responsible for registering the name of the turning point was not Hoshinomiya Chie, but Chabashira Sae.
Without any words of comfort, she just uttered two words lightly.
"name."
After receiving instructions from the teacher, the third grade groups began to announce their names one by one.
