Zhao Wuji Gets Beaten Up

Zhao Wuji Gets Beaten Up

After coming outside, Zhao Wuji instantly possessed his martial soul and warily scanned his surroundings.

"Stop playing tricks and come out. I know you're here..."

A black figure slowly emerged from behind a large tree. This person was completely shrouded in black clothing, even wearing a black hood over his head. From his appearance, one could only tell that he was a tall man. Who else could it be but Tang Hao?

"Who are you?" Zhao Wuji barked coldly. Having completed the possession of his Vajra Bear martial soul, his entire body radiated a wild aura, imposing without even needing anger.

Tang Hao did not answer him, merely speaking calmly.

"To encounter the Immovable Bright King in such a small place, I simply wanted to spar with you. It's been a long time since I last stretched my muscles."

Without further nonsense, he extended his right hand. The Clear Sky Hammer martial soul appeared instantly, followed by nine soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and five black. In particular, the ninth black soul ring carried a faint reddish tint within its darkness, emanating an immense pressure.

Seeing the black-clad man release nine soul rings, Zhao Wuji felt as though a bucket of ice water had been splashed over his face, and he shuddered from head to toe.

"A... a Titled Douluo..."

Zhao Wuji spoke those words tremblingly, his previous arrogance vanishing without a trace.

"May I ask which senior has graced us with his presence? Please don't joke around with someone like me. How could I possibly be worthy of sparring with you?"

"Heh heh."

Tang Hao gave a cold laugh and spoke.

"What does worthy or unworthy have to do with it? Didn't you have a fine time bullying those children during the day? I've discovered that bullying people seems to feel rather good. So let me bully you too. Of course, you may consider this using strength to oppress the weak."

Zhao Wuji was utterly dumbfounded. At most, I used the exam as an excuse to test those children's abilities. But you... you're planning to tear me apart directly...

Yet he did not dare resist. If he did not resist, there might still be a chance of survival. If he fought back, he would probably die right here on the spot.

Besides, judging from what this senior had said, he probably had no intention of killing him. Otherwise, he would not have wasted so many words on him.

Suddenly, Tang Hao stopped when he was about ten meters away from Zhao Wuji.

"Since you're here, come out. What difference does one or two make?"

As a figure flickered, another person appeared beside Zhao Wuji. It was Flander. The moment he appeared, the expression on Zhao Wuji's face relaxed somewhat.

"Boss, this senior..."

Flander waved a hand at him, signaling him not to speak, then bowed.

"Greetings, Clear Sky Crown..."

The moment Zhao Wuji heard that, he was stunned. His mind raced, yet he could not figure out what connection he had with this ruthless man, much less how he might have offended him.

Tang Hao said indifferently.

"No need for formalities. I'm here to cause trouble. Cat Eagle martial soul, Rank 78. You are indeed Flander, the main combatant of the Golden Iron Triangle back then. This Shrek Academy belongs to you, doesn't it?"

Flander nodded and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. I wonder how Zhao Wuji has offended Your Majesty. Could you give me some face?"

"Hmph..."

Tang Hao snorted coldly and said.

"Enough nonsense. Stand to the side. Otherwise, I'll beat you up too. Zhao Wuji, I'll give you a chance. I won't use my martial soul. If you can last an Incense Stick's time against me, I'll leave immediately without another word. Otherwise, you must do one thing for me."

Zhao Wuji gave a bitter smile. "Clear Sky Crown, I truly don't understand how I offended you. Could you tell me clearly first?"

"Little San and Xiao Hao are my sons. If you beat up the young ones, naturally the old one must step forward to seek justice. That is only right. Make your move."

Hearing those words, Zhao Wuji looked at Tang Hao in complete shock.

"Tang San and Yin Hao are your..."

He then turned to look at Flander, only to find him equally bewildered.

Tang Hao did not waste any more words. He gathered his Soul Power and prepared to attack. Seeing that Tang Hao was serious, Flander gave Zhao Wuji a look that said, "Good luck," before retreating to the side.

Then Tang Hao's figure vanished in an instant. Before Zhao Wuji could even react, he felt a heavy blow strike his chest.

Bang bang, boom boom, ah—

The sounds of collisions, surging force, muffled groans, and miserable screams rose and fell through the woods.

Flander, with his two wings spread, could not help covering his eyes and turning his head away, unable to bear watching any longer.

Early the next morning, Xiao Wu brought Ning Rongrong to Yin Hao's door.

Knock knock knock!

"Hao Gege? Hao Gege? Are you awake? The sun's already shining on your butt!"

Yin Hao opened the door. Seeing Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu outside, he paused slightly before giving Ning Rongrong a friendly smile.

But before he could speak, Ning Rongrong spoke first.

"Hello, Yin Hao. I came to thank you for what happened yesterday. Thank you for saving me."

Yin Hao had nearly forgotten about it. Only after she mentioned it did he recall saving her during the battle with Zhao Wuji yesterday.

"That was nothing. No need to thank me."

Ning Rongrong shook her head.

"My father always said that kindness must be repaid. If you don't mind, I'd like to treat you and Xiao Wu to a meal..."

After giving it some thought, Yin Hao agreed.

Setting aside the Little Witch's personality, Ning Rongrong's upbringing was still quite good. She had simply been spoiled rotten by the two Titled Douluo in her family.

The three of them headed toward Suotuo City. As they passed a cluster of residential houses, they suddenly heard voices nearby.

"Ma Hongjun, don't come looking for me again. I won't be with you anymore."

"Cui Hua, haven't I treated you well? Why do you want to break up with me?"

Hearing that there was some excitement to watch, Xiao Wu's rabbit ears perked up again. Her eyes filled with curiosity as she looked toward the source of the voices, tugging at Yin Hao's clothes to make him stop.

Yin Hao gave her a helpless look. Having read the original work, he naturally knew who was speaking.

Ning Rongrong was also somewhat curious and followed Xiao Wu's gaze.

There, a country girl and a chubby boy with short red hair were pulling at each other.

"You have treated me well, but I really can't stand you anymore. We're not suited for each other. You should find someone else. Besides, I'm several years older than you. Please, don't come looking for me again."

Hearing this, Ma Hongjun flew into a rage out of shame.

"What do you mean, you can't stand me? I really don't understand what you women are thinking. Fine, we can break up—but do it with me one more time, and then I'll break up with you. Otherwise, no chance."

As he spoke, he reached out to grab Cui Hua.

Cui Hua turned pale with fright and retreated again and again, trying to escape Ma Hongjun's clutches. But she was only an ordinary person—how could she possibly be faster than Ma Hongjun? He grabbed her hand directly, leaving her unable to move.

Xiao Wu could not bear to watch any longer. She immediately stepped forward and shouted sternly.

"Stop! What are you doing!"
