Chapter 1072 - 1071: Wu Feizhi Takes the Lead
The three most famous experts in the senior class were led by Lü Donglin, followed by Wu Feizhi and Ge Kaiyang.
Although Zhao Dongming was the disciple of the Martial Champion, due to Fang Ping’s presence, most of the Capital City’s people sided with Fang. As a result, Zhao Dongming’s status in the senior class was actually far below that of these three.
Later, after Fang Ping died, his people turned to Zhao Dongming. However, this was a recent development, and people had not yet placed Zhao on an equal footing with Lü Donglin, Ge Kaiyang, and Wu Feizhi.
Among these three, although Lü Donglin was a bit stronger, in fact, the most renowned was Wu Feizhi.
In some ways, Wu Feizhi’s situation was actually more similar to Su Yang’s. Both came from ordinary families and had both been bullied by local thugs.
But Su Yang was a bit stronger than Wu Feizhi. He was sent by Su Ping to the military, and he had Destiny’s Tome. After three years in the military, he returned home and steadily climbed to the pinnacle. Moreover, although his father Su Ping had been bullied, Su Yang quickly dealt with these issues, facing virtually no setbacks along the way.
Wu Feizhi’s tale was different. At just eight years old, he witnessed his father being beaten to death by those villains, his mother being humiliated and killed, and he himself was buried alive by them. In his young heart, he despaired of the world, and the seeds of hatred were thoroughly sown at that moment.
Later, as he followed a blind man wandering the world, although the blind man had half a secret manual, it was barely enough to scrape by. A blind man and a child wandering the martial world naturally saw the coldness and tragedy of human relations. When the blind man froze to death on a snowy night, it illustrated the hardship they faced in their wanderings.
One could say the experience at the age of eight planted the seeds of hatred in Wu Feizhi’s heart. And the five years wandering the martial world with the blind man tempered him, exposing him to the cruel reality of life. Even though Wu Feizhi was only thirteen years old when the blind man died, his social experience was already on par with an adult who had spent many years in the martial world.
