Liu Wen had spent many years mixing in the underworld. When Li Fei charged at him, he did not retreat. Instead, a ferocious glint flashed in his eyes as he raised the iron rod in his hand and swung it at Li Fei with all his strength!
His nickname was Blind Bear. It was not only because one of his eyes was blind, but also because he was built like a giant and possessed the brute strength of a bear.
Whoosh—
The iron rod came whistling through the air. Li Fei raised his arm to block it.
"You're asking to die!"
Liu Wen had far too much experience with situations like this. He was certain that this blow would break the other man's arm!
However, when the iron rod slammed heavily into Li Fei's right arm, Liu Wen did not feel the familiar sensation. Instead, it felt as though he had struck an air-filled tire, and the iron rod bounced away.
"Ah—"
The next second, Liu Wen let out a miserable scream. He abruptly doubled over and collapsed to the ground, his face turning pale.
It turned out that while Li Fei raised his arm to block, he had also kicked Liu Wen in the groin!
Li Fei had not held back with this kick. He could clearly feel something rupture beneath his foot.
This man might have to say goodbye to being a man for the rest of his life.
After taking down the leader in a single move, Li Fei's tense heart finally settled somewhat.
Whether in his previous life or this one, he had never encountered anything like this before. It was impossible not to be nervous.
"Luckily, I'm cautious enough."
Li Fei secretly congratulated himself.
Ever since he had eaten with Lu Changwu and the others that day, he had carried two packets of lime powder with him every day, specifically to guard against the Tiger Sabre Gang! Although he had not yet clashed directly with the Tiger Sabre Gang, one could never be too wary of others. Against a vicious gang like the Tiger Sabre Gang, which stopped at nothing, he dared not lower his guard.
Lime powder was easy to obtain and light enough to carry around. It was practically an ideal self-defense weapon!
Li Fei could actually have run away after dealing with Liu Wen, but after calming his nerves, he suddenly felt less inclined to flee.
First, these people looked like street thugs from some gang. Their strength was average, making them perfect for improving his own practical combat experience.
Second, he had just obtained the Blood Rage Blood Soul Skill, so these people were just right for him to practice on.
Third, he was short of money, wasn't he? These people might have some on them.
These thoughts flashed through Li Fei's mind in the blink of an eye. He turned around, bent down to pick up the iron rod Liu Wen had dropped, and charged forward!
The five underlings who had just finished clearing away the lime stared in astonishment at Li Fei, who was charging toward them instead of fleeing. They were somewhat dumbfounded.
"Get him—"
A minor leader shouted and was the first to charge at Li Fei.
There was no reason for more than a dozen of them to be frightened into retreating by a single opponent.
Just as the two sides were about to close in, Li Fei activated Blood Rage.
Within the Myriad Blood Bead, a Blood Soul was instantly consumed.
The next second, a warm current surged out from the Myriad Blood Bead and rapidly flooded Li Fei's limbs and bones, filling his entire body with explosive power!
Li Fei felt his blood boil with a long-lost heat. He wanted nothing more than to roar.
He swung the iron rod at the people ahead with all his strength, while the minor leader charging toward him did the same.
Bang!!
The two iron rods collided fiercely with the sound of splitting wind, denting inward at the point of impact.
The next second, the minor leader's iron rod was knocked from his hand.
His face was filled with horror. He could not understand how this seemingly unburly youth could erupt with such tremendous strength. Even Liu Wen, the strongest man in the gang, was inferior to him in power! Taking advantage of his daze, Li Fei decisively used Hook Scythe Leg, easily hooking his legs out from under him. He then followed up with a 'soccer kick,' absolutely forbidden in the Arena Tournament, driving his foot heavily into the man's face!
The man groaned. His nasal bridge broke instantly, his face blooming with blood as fresh blood sprayed everywhere. The immense pain knocked him unconscious.
Li Fei continued toward the underlings behind him.
Four underlings charged almost simultaneously. Two attacked from the front while the other two attacked from the sides, one targeting Li Fei's shoulder and the other bending down to strike his leg.
The four worked together with perfect coordination. Clearly, this was not their first time doing something like this.
Li Fei raised his right arm above his head and let the two underlings in front strike his arm with their iron rods.
He first used Heavenly Star Overlord Body to disperse the force and defend himself. Then the iron rod in his hand shot straight forward like a sharp sword, stabbing toward one underling's chest.
The underling who was struck went deathly pale in an instant. He dropped the iron rod in his hand, clutched his chest with both hands, staggered, and collapsed while howling in agony.
Bang! Bang! At the same time, the two underlings on either side also struck Li Fei with their iron rods.
One hit his shoulder and the other his leg, striking so hard that their iron rods bent slightly. Yet Li Fei's body did not even sway. His hands never stopped moving, and he continued stabbing toward the second underling in front with the iron rod, its tip now stained with blood.
"Ah—"
As screams rang out, Li Fei took down another man.
He turned and swung the iron rod at the underling on his right. The man instinctively raised his own iron rod to block. With a bang, the weapon was smashed violently to the ground, and the next instant, the man's arm took a blow and broke on the spot!
The underling clutched his arm and began howling.
Li Fei felt that his strength at this moment was already greater than Zhou Yishan's, who had dominated Xingcheng Secondary Vocational School with his power!
He turned and swung the iron rod to the left, easily taking down another man.
In a mere few seconds, counting Liu Wen, six people were already lying on the ground. Six remained.
The six remaining underlings had already been charging this way. Just as Li Fei finished taking down the other six, they arrived.
Before they even had time to feel afraid, Li Fei threw away the bent iron rod in his hand, switched to a new one, and charged toward them of his own accord.
Once again, he raised his arm and took the frontal attacks head-on before striking with the iron rod.
With Li Fei's strength now, anyone struck directly by the rod would suffer nothing less than a fracture! As he finished off the two men in front, one underling circled behind him. With a savage look on his face, he pulled a dagger from his waist and viciously stabbed at Li Fei's lower back! These men had all seen blood. If their employer had not instructed them not to take any lives this time, they would not have brought out only iron rods. They would have carried sabers instead.
Still, one of them had a dagger on him.
When the man successfully stabbed Li Fei with the dagger, the others all breathed a sigh of relief.
No matter how well Li Fei could fight, getting stabbed in the lower back would certainly cripple him.
Clang—
With a crisp sound, the underling who had stabbed Li Fei's lower back froze.
His dagger had not gone in. It had been blocked by a sheet of iron.
"A Stab Proof Vest? He's wearing a Stab Proof Vest?!"
One of the underlings stared at Li Fei as though he were looking at a ghost.
A Stab Proof Vest was standard equipment used by the Overseeing Bureau. It was a vest made of two iron plates, one in front and one in back, specifically designed to defend against sabers and dagger thrusts.
People from the Overseeing Bureau wore this equipment whenever they dealt with gang members, so the underlings of the Bear Strength Gang were very familiar with it.
Li Fei had a father who was a squad leader in the Overseeing Bureau, so obtaining this equipment would not have been difficult. But how much of a freak did someone have to be to carry lime powder every day and wear a Stab Proof Vest beneath his clothes?
On the tree-lined path, Li Fei, his face radiating righteousness, turned around. The shadows of the trees on both sides enveloped him.
At this moment, his not particularly tall figure looked somewhat terrifying in the eyes of these underlings.
