Delta: The First Person at the Peak

Chapter 216 General Education Course Crisis

The spotlight shone on the three of them. Jiang Feng raised his hand to suppress the cheers from the audience, then chuckled, his fingertips touching the microphone. His voice carried throughout the entire auditorium and reached the ears of millions of viewers in the live broadcast room.

"Don't worry, the opening date is set, please wait a moment, bosses."

As soon as he finished speaking, the audience erupted in cheers again, and the live chat was flooded with comments, with "crying, crouching, crouching" dominating the rest of the comments.

An Ke added, her eyes crinkling, "There's a second competition, we'll definitely hold one! This time it was too rushed. Next time we'll get more sponsors, build a bigger venue, and let more top players compete. I guarantee it'll be even more exciting than this one."

Meanwhile, those escorts who didn't participate in the assessment are currently squatting under Zhengfeng Esports' official account, frantically sending private messages asking when the next registration time will be. Many other club owners are also holding meetings overnight to discuss countermeasures. Zhengfeng Esports' move has directly raised the bar for the escort circle and also grabbed most of the traffic. If they don't keep up, they might not even get a taste of the benefits.

The live stream ended, and the audience in the auditorium gradually left, but the aftershocks of this assessment continued to reverberate across the internet.

The success of this online assessment has shown everyone that Delta Esports has a future; it's just that the organizers haven't fully grasped the competition format yet.

If the search, strike, and withdrawal model wants to evolve into an e-sports format, there's no need to be rigidly confined to the existing framework.

This also gave Yifeng a lot of new inspiration. But he didn't have time to think about the competition system reform right now. He had two things on his mind that he wanted to implement more: one was to promote anti-cheat measures, and the other was to try to make the M14's Huff coin brick skin.

The assessment had just ended when related clips flooded Douyin (TikTok).

Jiang Feng's 22 kills broke the record, which was undoubtedly astonishing.

BB's last-ditch comeback and Chengcheng's CEO-style 1v9 sliding tackle sniper were among the many memorable moments that were edited and re-edited, causing the number of reposts to skyrocket. BB and Chengcheng were also experiencing the taste of fame for the first time, with their private messages flooded by fans and their comment sections filled with praise, giving them a fleeting illusion of becoming celebrities.

Several highly popular questions emerged on Zhihu overnight:

How do you view the various events that occurred during the Delta Force Club's recent assessment?

How would you evaluate Jiang Feng, the anchor of Operation Delta Force?

How would you rate Jiang Feng's strength?

"Is Jiang Feng really dead?"

"What are your thoughts on the upcoming Zhengfeng Esports Club?"

The answers below flipped through page after page in just a few hours, and the discussion remained high.

Hupu went even further, releasing a scoring post for the assessment overnight, listing a total of 23 people – including Jiang Feng, Fang Ningxue, and An Ke who were present at the assessment.

Jiang Feng scored a high score of 9.7, and the entire division received unanimous praise:

"Ahhhhh~ My husband is so handsome!"

"Bang! Absolutely bang!"

"What do you mean by 'the number one person in the Delta'?!"

"I'm witnessing the birth of Delta GOAT!"

The praise was overflowing, and the few negative comments actually made him stay away from Fang Ningxue and An Ke.

Fang Ningxue and An Ke even scored as high as 9.9, with the entire section filled with "beautiful, beautiful, beautiful".

"With looks like that, I suggest she enter the entertainment industry and clean up the domestic entertainment circle."

"What river breeze? A 'blowing wind'! Just accessories for two beautiful women!"

"A beautiful woman can be beautiful on her own, but she should stay away from the river breeze!"

The scores varied among the contestants. Chengcheng Dawang scored a high 9.5 with his outstanding slide-sniping technique. Surprisingly, the unlucky player who lost both rounds with the AW Rapid Spaceback actually ranked second with a score of 9.4, largely due to netizens' sympathy for him. BB's score followed closely behind. Overall, the online assessment received a near-perfect reception.

Jiang Feng, Fang Ningxue, An Ke, Chen Yulin, Chen Dexing, and Zhang Jindong sat around the table, the grill in front of them sizzling with smoke, and the table was piled high with meat skewers, crayfish, and clams.

Unlike the contestants who participated in the online assessment at home, Jiang Feng and his six colleagues, who had been busy with on-site coordination all day, were finally able to unwind and celebrate the successful conclusion of the assessment with ice-cold beer and barbecue skewers.

Everyone picked up their ice-cold beers, but Jiang Feng had a cup of warm tea, a complimentary gift from the restaurant, in front of him.

Jiang Feng doesn't drink alcohol and is extremely strict with himself.

In his past life, he had broken his hand due to his decadent and indulgent lifestyle and drunken mistakes. In the end, he lost all his talent and became just an ordinary person. That regret and resentment became the most profound warning for him in this life.

Given a second chance at life, he would never touch a drop of alcohol, and would never squander his talent or jeopardize his future.

This is self-discipline.

Jiang Feng raised his cup of tea, his gaze sweeping over the group of people fighting alongside him. His tone was firm and sincere as he used the tea instead of wine: "I hope all our efforts will bear fruit! This is just the beginning. Going forward, we must build Zhengfeng Esports into a major force, making it bigger and stronger, and creating even greater glories!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other five raised their glasses. The beer glasses clinked with the teacups, the crisp sound echoing in the barbecue restaurant, mingling with the aroma of smoke and the passion of youth, capturing this warm and powerful moment.

"Cheers!"

…………

The next day, December 26th, Thursday.

Logically speaking, this should be Jiang Feng's most relaxed day of the week, except for the weekend—he only has one class in the morning and a general education class in the afternoon, which is no different from having no classes at all.

Unfortunately, exam week is approaching and the general education courses are coming to an end. This week's class is the last general education class, and it's time to check the grades.

This class is absolutely essential!

Jiang Feng had been adhering to the principle of "skipping required courses and definitely skipping elective courses" since the start of the semester. He hadn't stepped into the classroom once for this general education course on global perspectives, and he was completely clueless about the course requirements. Panicked, he frantically asked questions on the school's online forum before finally figuring out the rules: a paper copy needed to be submitted in person, and a 1000-word paper on global perspectives needed to be uploaded online.

Upon seeing the requirements, Jiang Feng's heart pounded. The reason was simple—he knew nothing about the teacher, the topics covered, or the key points emphasized, let alone how to produce a decent final paper.

Despite his apprehension, he gritted his teeth and decided to work through the night to finish the manuscript. But when he actually sat down at the computer, he realized that this was ten times harder than his Delta Force 22-kill challenge. He stared at the blank document for a long time, unable to even write the opening paragraph of the paper. He felt like his head was about to explode.

Fortunately, this is where the classmate's help came in. Jiang Feng quickly pulled out Lao Cao's WeChat; Lao Cao was a well-known essay-writing expert in the class, with a fast and steady pen.

Jiang Feng asked Lao Cao to write one for him. Lao Cao was a straightforward person and readily agreed, sending over the completed paper before class in the morning.

Jiang Feng, who was in a hurry to finish his work, didn't even look at the document once. He saved it, ran to the print shop to print two copies, and hurriedly headed to the teaching building with the paper copies in his hand. He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, this was his first time attending this class this semester. He pushed open the door and looked around at all the unfamiliar faces, so he found an empty seat at the back and sat down, not daring to be stared at or join in the chattering discussions.

He was a prominent figure at school during this period, and people had gotten used to it.

He simply lowered his head and started playing on his phone, waiting for the teacher to collect his paper.

Just then, a WeChat message popped up from Anke: "Where are you?"

Jiang Feng subconsciously replied: "Building A, XXX."

He didn't think much of it after sending the message. Just as he put his phone back in his pocket, he heard a slight noise coming from the classroom door. He looked up and was stunned.

Anke had her hair tied in a simple high ponytail, wearing a casual hoodie and jeans. Her face was bare of makeup, and her eyes were bright and lively. She was holding a few pieces of paper in her hand and was standing at the door scanning the classroom. The moment her eyes met his, her eyes curved into a smile, and she walked towards him.
