Justice

Su Hao did not want some Level 4 Students to pop up later and cause more trouble. He might as well settle everything in one go and be done with it once and for all. Grinding his way up layer by layer would not only waste time, it would be endlessly irritating.

Once his name, "Wu Xiangwu," intimidated everyone, there would be no more trouble.

In the novels and television shows he had watched before, the protagonist would beat up a small fry, only for a bigger one to appear; then after beating the bigger one, an old one would come. All manner of strange events would continuously happen to the protagonist.

It had seemed pretty satisfying to watch back then, but when such things happened to him, he did not like them one bit.

There were piles of trivial crap, big and small, every single day. Was he supposed to stop studying? Was he supposed to stop practicing martial arts? Therefore, whenever he encountered trouble, he preferred to eliminate every hidden danger in one sweep. Otherwise, when would he ever finish learning all the knowledge recorded in Marble Space? For example, lately he had not had the time to research Photon Computer and Quantum Computer topics. As long as there was no breakthrough in foundational logic and computing power, his "Light of the Universe" could not undergo a major upgrade, and its help to him could not be maximized.

Therefore, a quiet study environment and ample time were what he needed most.

Moreover, he had recently planned to break through to Grandmaster Warrior, which required even greater peace of mind.

After asking several more people, however, he learned that under normal circumstances, one would not encounter Level 4 Students at the Academy. That was because all Level 4 Students had joined various Exploration Groups or Guard Teams and begun their internships.

Only then did Su Hao relax. He had already beaten down the First-Level, Level 2, and Level 3 Students. There should not be any more trouble afterward.

Still, he had impulsively kicked that spiky-haired guy's balls to pieces today. The guy would definitely think of a way to retaliate later. Su Hao needed to prepare himself. If he had the opportunity and ability, he might as well wipe out the backing behind that guy in one pot.

"Then next, I'll quickly advance to Grandmaster Warrior, just in case."

Thinking this, Su Hao walked over to Little Fatty and He Qingqing. The surrounding people retreated one after another, making way for him.

"Little Fatty, Qing Qing, let's go!"

Su Hao and the others had just started to leave.

"Stop!" A sharp female shout suddenly rang out.

Su Hao turned and saw that it was the short-haired girl he had knocked down earlier. He had some impression of her, because among all those Students, she was the only Elite Warrior.

Su Hao frowned and said flatly, "What? Do you still have something to say?"

Ye Xiaomeng was furious. "Who are you? You came here out of nowhere and caused a huge scene, then you're just going to pat your ass and leave? What do you take this place for? What do you take us for? Tools for venting your anger?"

"Tools for venting anger?" Su Hao looked her up and down, then said, "You're not worthy."

"You..." Ye Xiaomeng pointed at Su Hao, too angry to speak. If she truly could have beaten him, she would have rushed up and gouged out his eyes at once.

Su Hao added, "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving!"

"Stop!" Ye Xiaomeng shouted, directly running over to block Su Hao's path. She said coldly, "You must give me an explanation. Otherwise, even if I die here, I won't let you leave."

Su Hao suddenly laughed, a cold laugh. "An explanation? Don't you think that's ridiculous?"

Ye Xiaomeng said, "Not ridiculous at all! You have to make yourself clear, or I won't let you off."

Su Hao's eyes turned cold. "Are you threatening me?"

Ye Xiaomeng's heart trembled, but the justice in her heart would not let her retreat. "It isn't a threat. I just can't be beaten up by you for no reason. None of us Level 3 Students can be beaten up by you for no reason. We are not tools for you to vent your anger or build your reputation."

Su Hao stepped forward, facing Ye Xiaomeng head-on. "That's why I said you're incredibly ridiculous."

Ye Xiaomeng was puzzled.

Su Hao continued, "Just now, a whole group of Level 3 Students blocked the entrance to the girls' dormitory for First-Level Students. They used force to threaten a young girl into being that guy's lover for a month. If she refused, they would beat up her roommates to coerce her. Tell me, did they deserve to be beaten?"

Only then did Ye Xiaomeng learn what had happened. Her face turned livid. "Where are they?"

Su Hao laughed. "Heh! I broke their arms and legs long ago. Was I supposed to wait for you to deal with them?"

Ye Xiaomeng immediately protested, "They caused the trouble. Punishing them is enough. Why did you have to beat up all the Level 3 Students? If that isn't venting anger, what is?"

Su Hao said, "You're wrong. You still haven't understood why this happened."

Ye Xiaomeng frowned. "Why?"

Su Hao said, "You're the strongest among the Level 3 Students, right?"

Ye Xiaomeng nodded directly.

Su Hao mocked, "The reason lies with you!"

"What do you mean?"

Su Hao shook his head. "You are an unqualified strongest. You have strength far beyond that of your peers, yet you don't know how to put it to use. You may not understand, but within a group, the strongest must take the lead. They must thoroughly carry out their own will and justice, making the entire group act under their will, so that the whole group can unleash its greatest power."

"And you? What role have you been playing? Are you worthy of the Title of strongest among Level 3 Students?"

"You Level 3 Students are lawless, doing whatever you want without any restraint. Today you want to bully First-Level Students; tomorrow you want to use force to coerce those weaker than yourselves; the day after tomorrow, when you run short of money, you'll directly block the road and rob people. In the future, when you're unhappy, will you rely on your powerful martial strength to kill everyone you see? And you? You know nothing. Even if you did know, you would indulge them. Tell me, what is your purpose? Where are your rules? Where is your will?"

Ye Xiaomeng's eyes widened, her face filled with panic.

Su Hao continued, "What happened today—if I hadn't been here, guess what the consequences would have been? What kind of psychological trauma do you think it would have caused that young First-Level Student? That's right, only those scum actually committed the wrongdoing. But as the strongest among the Level 3 Students, tell me, did you deserve to be beaten? And as fellow Level 3 Students, were they innocent for allowing this to happen? Did they deserve to be beaten?"

Su Hao shouted, "Let me tell you! Those who indulge wrongdoing are even more detestable than those who commit it!"

After saying that, Su Hao stepped forward and sent Ye Xiaomeng flying with a savage punch.

To deal with this bunch of little brats who had no complete worldview, he did not need to rack his brains at all. He could completely bluff them with a few casually made-up words! Besides, he was not wrong. In this world where the weak survived by attaching themselves to the strong, if the strong did nothing, one could well imagine the living conditions of those beneath them.

Ye Xiaomeng stood there dumbly, neither dodging nor blocking. After falling to the ground, she did not get up. Her empty eyes stared at the sky as she murmured softly, "I did nothing... Was I wrong?"

At the side, Xiao Yushu, the strongest Level 2 Student, was also rooted to the spot in intimidation. "I... should have taken responsibility? Did I do wrong too?"

Even Jin Dayan, who had always considered himself a Genius, stared blankly at Su Hao's back, deep in thought.

At this moment, everyone who had considered themselves extraordinary was intimidated by Su Hao's words.

It was as though they understood some principle, yet as though they did not.

It was as though they had seen through this lawless "Violent Flyer Wu Xiangwu," yet as though they had not.

Those words completely changed everyone's impression of Su Hao. A thought rose in their hearts: Perhaps Violent Flyer Wu Xiangwu was not as arrogant and overbearing as they had imagined?

"This kid is interesting!"

On a distant rooftop, a middle-aged man in a white robe patterned with clouds chuckled.

This man was Xiao Jixuan, the dean of Lingyun Warrior Academy. From beginning to end, he had watched this entire farce unfold.
