Slap!!
...
In the arena, a continual slapping sound could be heard, but it wasn't the noise of any primal behavior. It was the crisp smack of a palm strike, making listeners wince as if they could feel the pain in their teeth.
In just a few seconds, everyone, including those from the Human Sect, hadn't even seen how Liu Wentian moved before Xue Kai and his lackeys started screaming, holding their swollen, red faces.
—A crowd looked on at Liu Wentian in shock.
Liu Wentian smiled and said, "Is that all the skills you've got? If you have more, now's the time to show them."
The very next moment, his tone turned icy, "If that's all, then don't bother Qingqing again. Otherwise, having your arms and legs broken will be the least of your worries! She's here to study, not to waste time with you lot!!"
Everyone was left trembling from his icy tone.
Xue Kai's face flushed red, not from the beating, but from sheer embarrassment! He had always been the ultimate rich and handsome guy in school. He'd play with a girl and then toss her aside. He was always successful and had never been slapped in the face like this!
If he let this go, how was he supposed to keep his reputation?
Despite Liu Wentian seeming rather formidable, Xue Kai still gritted his teeth and said, "Don't get too cocky. I have a brother who is the main force of the Taekwondo club. I'm calling him over now. Do you dare to wait here?"
"Sure," Liu Wentian responded indifferently.
"Fine, you're asking for it!!" Xue Kai sneered.
Then he made a phone call.
"Xu Yi, I got beaten up. I'm at the school gate, come help me out!!"
"What, you're with Coach Park from your Taekwondo club? Great, bring him along. This guy seems quite tough!"
"Alright, hurry up!!"
After hanging up the phone, Xue Kai sneered at Liu Wentian, as if he had already seen him lying on the ground searching for his teeth.
The students watching on the side felt a pang of sympathy for Liu Wentian when they overheard Xue Kai's phone conversation.
Liu Menglou was pulling Liu Wentian, trying to leave.
"We need to go fast. That Coach Park is a Taekwondo Black Belt 7th Dan, a super-master who won the Zhao Nation National Taekwondo Competition. He doesn't hold back when he hits; last time, he even broke the ribs of a dozen hoodlums who caused trouble at our school! Let's leave quickly before it's too late!!"
After saying this, seeing that Liu Wentian hadn't moved, she became angry and said, "Why are you still standing there?? Hurry up and get in your car and leave!!"
Zi Qing's face also went pale when she heard her words. Coach Park was so formidable, and he was a Zhao Nation National Taekwondo Competition champion. She also became worried and urged tensely, "Brother Wentian, let's just go quickly. Let's not bother with them!!"
"It's okay, I'm actually quite interested in this so-called Zhao Nation National Taekwondo champion. It could be good to see how we measure up," Liu Wentian said with an unconcerned smile.
"You... you really are insensible!! I can't deal with you!!"
Liu Menglou stamped her foot, huffing angrily at Liu Wentian, but then she added, "Are you really not leaving?? Are you silly?"
A corner of Liu Wentian's mouth curled up. His fierce little sister was a bit hot-headed, but she wasn't a bad person. Zi Qing was lucky to have such a deskmate.
"Hmph! You can't leave now. Coach Park and Xu Yi are here!"
Xue Kai sneered and then waved at the two men and one woman walking towards them, calling out, "Xu Yi, over here, hurry up!!"
The onlookers, seeing this scene, had already started buzzing with discussion.
"This kid is done for, Coach Park is probably gonna kick his ribs in and break a bunch of them!!"
"Yeah, but Coach Park might not even need to step in, Xu Yi will likely take care of him."
"Look, the little witch is here too, I bet Xu Yi wants to show off in front of her and take down this kid!!"
"Haha, it'd serve him right to get taken down, daring to hit on our school's fairy and driving such a flashy car, he's just asking for a beating!!"
"..."
Following Xue Kai's gaze, Liu Wentian looked up and was momentarily stunned. What a coincidence, it was someone he knew; no wonder he found the name Xu Yi somewhat familiar when he heard it earlier.
Among the three people who arrived, there was the purple-haired and green-eyed haughty Li Ruan, and next to her was none other than Xu Yi, the purple-haired guy who had been slapped by Liu Wentian at the bar last time.
Now, Xu Yi and Li Ruan also saw Liu Wentian. They halted in their steps, and upon seeing him standing next to Xue Kai, surrounded by a crowd, they immediately guessed that he was the one who had hit Xue Kai.
Xu Yi, who was originally brimming with anger, suddenly twitched his face and his legs went soft, almost turning around to run away.
Li Ruan, on the other hand, subconsciously covered her butt, then, with a flushed face, moved her hand away, glaring at Liu Wentian with resentment yet also showing a hint of shyness.
Coach Park was a muscular and somewhat fierce-looking middle-aged man from Zhao Nation.
Upon seeing Xu Yi and Li Ruan stopping in their tracks looking awkward, he asked puzzledly, "Xu Yi, what's wrong with you two??"
Grinding his teeth, Xu Yi said, "Coach Park, that guy is the one who hit me, and also because of him, Li Ruan was planning to quit the Taekwondo club.
Li Ruan hadn't been to the Taekwondo club for several days, and today, right after she came to the club, she immediately said she wanted to quit."
This startled Coach Park. Little witch Li Ruan was the Taekwondo club's golden sign attracting rich second-generation kids to join—how could she quit?!
Inquisitively, he found out that both Xu Yi and Li Ruan had been taught a lesson, and Xu Yi, the main strength of the Taekwondo club, had no power to resist in front of others, which made Li Ruan feel Taekwondo was useless and had no desire to learn it anymore.
Now, seeing the person who messed with his prized sign in front of him, he couldn't help but become furious.
He took a few steps towards Liu Wentian and shouted fiercely, "Are you the one who hit Xu Yi and Li Ruan??"
Whish!!
The onlooking crowd was in an uproar, this guy actually hit Xu Yi, was he really that powerful??
But hitting Xu Yi was one thing, even the little witch had been hit by him, and the fact that he could still stand here jumping and bouncing was even more incredible!!
These people all understood that Li Ruan was the daughter of the chairman of Tiange Group, and had a terrifying backing!!
If they knew that Li Ruan was not just beaten, but had her butt smacked, so she was too embarrassed to tell her family, it would probably shock them into dropping their jaws.
"That's right, I'm the one who hit them. Are you going to stand up for them??" Liu Wentian provocatively said, unimpressed by Coach Park's questioning.
"Hmph!! You hit my students, of course, I have to stand up for them!!" Coach Park retorted coldly.
Hearing that Xu Yi and Li Ruan had been hit by Liu Wentian, Xue Kai was also shocked and secretly relieved that Xu Yi had brought Coach Park with him.
Quickly, he said, "Coach Park, give that guy a harsh lesson for me, I'll give you 100,000 yuan afterward for the expansion of your Taekwondo club."
"Don't worry, Master Xue, no problem!!"
Coach Park excitedly responded and then tauntingly smiled at Liu Wentian, "Kid, since you were able to defeat Xu Yi, have you practiced before?? Karate, Judo, something??"
"Huaxia Kung Fu." Liu Wentian said blandly.
"Haha, Huaxia Kung Fu, that's the trickery in TV shows where they fly around deceiving people, right?? Pah! Let me show you what real strength is!! Come here, let me teach you a lesson with one move!!" Coach Park spat disdainfully and said with contempt.
