In the classroom, the homeroom teacher, Li Hong, was enthusiastically promoting the products she held in her hands to the students.
Her professional jargon and fluent sales pitch had many students impulsively placing orders.
Seeing more and more people buying, Li Hong's smile was harder to suppress than an AK's recoil.
A single Bear-Snake Pill cost over half a million, diluted into a thousand bottles, three hundred boxes, selling them all would bring in over three million!
After deducting costs, she could easily net two million in profit.
It was sheer profiteering.
Why bother being a teacher or giving lessons?
Every year, by relying on such sales, a few teachers would team up with school leaders, casually find a pharmaceutical company outside to collaborate with, and each person could easily earn hundreds of thousands.
Students all hoped to get into a good university, and hearing that it could strengthen their bodies and help with the National Martial Arts exam, parents were more than willing to pay.
In reality, if it were a genuine Bear-Snake Pill, it could indeed enhance physical strength, but after being diluted a thousand times, what effect could possibly remain? At most, it was just slightly better than ordinary health supplements.
As for this, Li Hong couldn't care less, as long as it made money.
Just as she was selling fervently, a tall and upright figure appeared at the door, interrupting the sales atmosphere.
Li Hong was immediately displeased, looked towards the door, and glared, "Who is it? Don't you know you can't visit during class? Leave now!"
But the person completely ignored her words, walking into the classroom on their own.
Seeing the person carrying a backpack, Li Hong realized it was a student, and upon taking a closer look at his face, she remembered who it was.
"Lin Feng?"
Lin Feng simply replied, "It's me."
For a moment, the entire classroom fell into an eerie silence.
Li Hong's expression instantly shifted from displeasure to amiability, even with a hint of flattery.
"So it's Lin Feng, not bad, not bad. The teacher saw your video in the Life and Death Arena, you have potential, talent, and skill, haha, go take your seat."
The video of Lin Feng, a Level 21 Martial Artist, barehandedly counterattacking and killing Zhang Yong, a Level 40 Martial Artist with a blade, in the Mingjiang Life and Death Arena had already spread online.
This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
Although the buzz had diminished over the days, people still talked about it and watched it repeatedly.
Moreover, netizens quickly uncovered Lin Feng's identity as a senior student at Mingjiang No. 3 High School.
This information naturally reached the school soon after.
Having such an outstanding student in the school was a big deal, and if Lin Feng had the chance to become a first-rate master, the entire school would benefit.
The school leaders immediately approached Li Hong, instructing her to treat Lin Feng courteously upon his return, focus on nurturing him, and provide any necessary support.
Li Hong hadn't forgotten this instruction, so upon seeing Lin Feng return, her attitude was exceptionally proper.
She behaved this way out of fear that Lin Feng might hold a grudge.
After all, Lin Feng had approached her several times when he was bullied, but Li Hong dismissed it as minor student squabbles without evidence.
Now that Lin Feng was back, if he still held a grudge, it would be troublesome, so she acted so diligently.
Lin Feng's name was already well-known among the students.
Many students admired Lin Feng greatly, claiming they would seek him as a mentor or leader upon his return.
Now, seeing him in person, Lin Feng's classmates couldn't contain their excitement, casting adoring looks his way.
The only ones with a completely different attitude were the three girls sitting in the last row.
They were Han Feifei, Li Chunxia, and Liu Xiaoyan.
The three girls turned pale as death upon seeing Lin Feng, their eyes filled with fear and panic.
They had bullied Lin Feng quite a bit in the past and had witnessed him brutally defeat Zhang Yong in the Life and Death Arena.
Although Lin Feng hadn't troubled them afterward, the three were so scared they didn't dare attend school for several days.
They thought Lin Feng, being so impressive now, wouldn't return to school.
Only then did they dismiss thoughts of transferring or even going abroad to return to class.
But unexpectedly, Lin Feng appeared before them once again.
The three felt as if the sky was falling, wishing they could escape right then if not for being in class.
Sitting in his seat, Lin Feng looked around the classroom and at his classmates, finding it all so novel.
He hadn't attended school in years, and now experiencing it again was quite nice.
"Brother Lin... have you finished your homework? If not, I can do it for you..."
A timid voice sounded beside him.
Lin Feng turned to see his deskmate, a short, cute, somewhat timid boy with black-framed glasses.
"Huang Xiaogui?"
"It's me, Brother Lin..."
Lin Feng remembered, this was his deskmate, also someone frequently bullied at school.
Both he and the original owner were victims of the school bully, Zhang Yong, who often bullied him alongside the original owner.
They were kindred spirits, sharing the same plight.
Huang Xiaogui had it worse; besides Zhang Yong, other classmates also bullied him, extorting protection money because he was wealthy.
Now, with Lin Feng's transformation into a gaming genius who defeated Zhang Yong, Huang Xiaogui was both in awe and worried that Lin Feng might bully him after gaining power.
Seeing Huang Xiaogui's timid demeanor, Lin Feng couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Li Hong, who had resumed selling, was interrupted again. Though displeased, she dared not show it, forcing a smile.
But Lin Feng kept laughing, making it impossible for her to continue selling.
"Lin Feng, the teacher is in class, please keep your voice down."
Li Hong attempted to use her authority as a teacher to suppress him.
But Lin Feng didn't care, continuing to joke with Huang Xiaogui.
"We're desk mates, no need to be so formal. From now on, I'll have your back, no one will dare bully you."
"Really, Brother Lin? You're so good to me, boohoo, Brother Lin, from now on, I'll be your most loyal underling!"
Huang Xiaogui, hearing Lin Feng's promise to protect him, was so moved he stood up, pounding the desk in excitement.
Li Hong couldn't hold back any longer; she might not dare reprimand Lin Feng, but she could certainly reprimand Huang Xiaogui.
"Huang Xiaogui! You're disrupting the class with your loud voice, go stand outside as punishment!"
Huang Xiaogui instinctively shivered, shrinking his neck as he was about to head to the corridor, but Lin Feng pulled him back.
"What punishment? Didn't I just say I'd protect you? Who dares make you stand as punishment when I'm here?"
Huang Xiaogui was almost moved to tears, having been bullied for so long, it was the first time someone stood up for him.
He now wanted nothing more than to follow Lin Feng's lead.
Li Hong, feeling humiliated by Lin Feng's words, looked displeased, suppressing her anger, "Lin Feng, I'm your teacher, your homeroom teacher, you..."
But before she could finish, Lin Feng interrupted her mercilessly.
"What kind of teacher are you? What kind of homeroom teacher? Besides selling snake oil and fleecing students, have you done anything to help them?"
Lin Feng addressed the students loudly, "Classmates, this Bear-Snake Pill costs just over fifty thousand, diluted into a thousand bottles, sold to you at ten thousand a box. Not only is she profiting off you, but the diluted medicine also has no real effect. I suggest you open your eyes and don't be deceived, your parents' money isn't easy to come by."
Hearing this, the students believed Lin Feng unconditionally, after all, he was a gaming expert, his words must be true!
The students immediately lost their urge to buy.
Some who had just signed up quickly changed their minds, saying they wouldn't buy.
Li Hong was completely dumbfounded.
