Ryuen gave the order.

Yamazaki, Albert, and Ibuki Mio seemed to have made up their minds.

Yi Chen's gaze turned cold as he assumed a fighting stance.

Albert stepped forward with a left-right straight punch combination.

Yamazaki leaped, throwing a Monkey Fist toward Yi Chen.

Seeing this, Yi Chen first dodged Yamazaki's Monkey Fist by shifting to the side.

He immediately seized Albert's wrist.

With a backhand right hook, he stunned Albert.

Albert staggered back two steps.

He looked at Yi Chen in disbelief.

He thought to himself:

What is going on? This strength. This speed is completely different from before.

Yamazaki moved in with a front kick.

Yi Chen side-stepped and swept his legs.

Yamazaki fell, wincing in pain.

Ibuki Mio stepped forward with a Sun Character Punch.

Yi Chen retreated to dodge and parried the blow.

Albert moved in with a Vajra Arm.

Yi Chen ducked to avoid it.

Ibuki Mio delivered a high kick.

Yi Chen blocked with his bent arm.

Ibuki Mio followed up with continuous high kicks.

Yi Chen took the hits and retreated.

Yi Chen looked at them in disbelief:

"I didn't expect them to become this strong in just a month."

"Why hasn't my long-term practice of the Primordial Flower Hand suppressed them?"

Angel suddenly darted out at this moment.

Yi Chen observed the situation while listening to Angel speak:

"Once the Primordial Flower Hand reaches a certain level, it no longer increases physical constitution; it focuses more on qi."

"Haven't you noticed that you've become much more composed?"

"Besides, they have definitely been training hard this past month."

"You can suppress them effortlessly right now."

"That is the charm of the Primordial Flower Hand."

"Hahaha, hiccup."

"Keep it up, young man. I look forward to you completing your mission."

Yi Chen was too lazy to retort and continued the fight.

Albert stepped forward with left-right jabs.

Yi Chen dodged and deflected the force.

Albert attempted a headbutt.

Yi Chen retreated and countered with a Clinch Knee Strike.

With that blow, the black fighter Albert finally collapsed.

At this moment, Yamazaki, who was on the ground, immediately grabbed a wooden stick from who knows where.

He spun the stick with one hand and charged forward, swinging it heavily.

Ibuki Mio threw left and right hooks.

Seeing this, Yi Chen dodged to the side.

He dodged continuously.

He unleashed a Whirlwind Triple Kick.

Yamazaki was kicked away, and the stick fell from his hand.

With only Ibuki Mio left, Yi Chen's expression remained indifferent.

He delivered a Calf Kick.

Ibuki Mio dropped to one knee.

Ibuki Mio lowered her head in pain.

Ryuen watched Yi Chen from the side with an excited expression.

Kushida's eyes widened, her face twisted with malice.

Kushida snapped:

"Ryuen, what is wrong with your subordinates!"

"How could they get beaten up like this by a stinking otaku."

Ryuen brushed back his bangs and stepped forward with a wicked grin:

"Hoho, Miss Kushida, don't be so impatient."

"It is indeed my fault that my subordinates were beaten like this."

"I will be sure to teach them a lesson."

Yi Chen looked at Ryuen with a casual expression.

Ryuen stepped up to confront Yi Chen.

Kushida watched from the side with disdain.

Just as the tension between the three reached a breaking point.

The rooftop door opened.

It was Airi, holding a camera.

Airi's voice trembled as she said:

"Please, stop it."

Yi Chen looked at Airi with a cold, indifferent expression.

Seeing this, Ryuen smirked:

"Oh my, today really is quite unfortunate."

Ryuen walked up and patted Yi Chen on the shoulder, his face darkening as he said:

"Angela Yi Chen."

"You've certainly had your moment in the spotlight today, but let's leave it at that for now."

"I look forward to us having a proper fight next time."

"Just sit there and wait for me, filled with fear."

Yi Chen chuckled dismissively at these words.

Ryuen glared at Yi Chen in anger.

Yi Chen looked at Airi and said calmly:

"Airi, did you record everything that just happened?"

Airi nodded tremblingly upon hearing this.

Ryuen turned to leave.

Yi Chen grabbed Ryuen's shoulder and said coldly:

"Ryuen, you seem to have misunderstood one thing."

"Fear? You clearly don't understand me at all."

"Do you know what the most powerful weapons in this world are?"

Ryuen snorted:

"Angela Yi Chen, what are you trying to say?"

Yi Chen smiled:

"Airi's camera captured everything that just occurred."

Ryuen's expression turned grim:

"So what? You want to use that to threaten me?"

"Don't forget, you were the one who threw the punches."

"At most, I'll face a penalty, but you, Angela Yi Chen,"

"You'll be facing expulsion."

Yi Chen's expression softened:

"What are you talking about?"

"Ryuen, the footage is in my hands, and I can easily edit out the beginning and the end."

"I can't guarantee that what others see will be the complete recording."

Ryuen heard this and said resentfully:

"Angela Yi Chen! How dare you!"

Yi Chen feigned shyness:

"I'm so scared, classmate Ryuen."

"You should know that once you're expelled, there will be nothing you can do about me."

Ryuen was furious, clenching his fists tight.

Ryuen glared with wide eyes, gritting his teeth as he said:

"Aren't you afraid I'll destroy the camera right now?"

Yi Chen said indifferently:

"The memory chip inside the camera is very small; even if the camera is smashed, the chip will be fine."

"Besides, can you guarantee that with me here, you'll be able to touch Airi?"

Ryuen looked toward Airi at the rooftop entrance.

He then looked at Kushida with resentment, before turning an unhappy gaze toward Yi Chen.

"What do you want?"

"Angela Yi Chen!"

Yi Chen looked at Ryuen calmly:

"Three people."

"One hundred thousand points per person."

"Give me three hundred thousand."

Ryuen's face was full of displeasure, but he had no other choice.

After some deliberation, Ryuen gritted his teeth and transferred 300,000 points to Yi Chen.

Afterward, the group approached Airi to delete the recording.

Ryuen and his group left the rooftop in a rage.

Kushida looked at Airi and Yi Chen with disbelief and intense resentment.

Her fists were clenched tight.

Seeing that Ryuen and the others had left, Kushida also intended to walk away.

Yi Chen stepped forward to stop Kushida.

Kushida reverted to her usual expression, though her complexion remained poor:

"What do you want, Yi Chen? The video is gone, so threatening me is useless."

"Consider yourself lucky this time."

After speaking, Kushida glared angrily at Airi, who was standing next to Yi Chen.

Airi lowered her head in guilt.

Yi Chen said indifferently:

"Give me your phone."

Kushida:

"Why should I?"

Yi Chen said indifferently:

"I earned a bit from Ryuen, so I'll share some with you."

Kushida laughed disdainfully upon hearing this and held out her phone.

Yi Chen transferred 100,000 points to Kushida.

Kushida was shocked as she looked at her balance.

Kushida snapped:

"Angela Yi Chen."

"Don't think you can win my favor this way."

"You've already seen my true colors."

"If you dare to expose my true face, I will definitely make you regret it."

Kushida then looked at Airi with a sinister expression:

"The same goes for you."

Airi pressed tightly against Yi Chen's back, her body trembling slightly.

Yi Chen said indifferently:

"Kushida, I told you we are even."

"I will pretend nothing happened today."

Hearing this, Airi hurriedly chimed in:

"Kushida-san, I'm sorry, I will also pretend I didn't see anything."

Airi tremblingly raised her small hand.

"I promise."

Seeing this, Kushida immediately returned to her usual smiling face:

"That's great, Yi Chen-kun and Airi-san."

"I hope you both keep your word~"

After saying this, Kushida left the rooftop with a look of delight.

Yi Chen looked at Airi indifferently:

"Thanks, Airi."

Airi said shamefully:

"I'm sorry Yi Chen, it's all my fault."

"They helped me today, so I thought they weren't bad people at all."

"I didn't expect... I'm sorry Yi Chen."

Yi Chen said calmly:

"It's fine, it's a good thing you were there; we even earned three hundred thousand points."

Airi thought back to the vicious Kushida from just a moment ago and felt a bit scared.

Airi whispered:

"I never imagined Kushida-san was that kind of person."

Yi Chen saw that Airi seemed unable to move past it.

Thinking of Airi's experiences, he reached out and patted her head.

Airi shyly looked up at Yi Chen.

Yi Chen said slowly:

"It's okay, the world is just like this."

"One person has one way of thinking."

"Ten thousand people have ten thousand ways of thinking."

"Everyone has their own life."

"Perhaps Kushida hasn't had it easy in the past."

Airi nodded upon hearing this.

Airi then shyly said:

"Yi Chen-kun was so cool just now, so strong, just like a male lead in an anime."

Yi Chen smiled faintly:

"Thank you."

Airi said bashfully:

"Yi Chen-kun, now that you have a girlfriend, can we still chat like we used to?"

Yi Chen:

"Of course we can, we share the same hobbies after all."

"If I have free time, you can come find me to talk."

Airi smiled happily.

The two stopped exchanging pleasantries and left together.

Airi held her hands to her chest, looking at Yi Chen with eyes full of affection.

Afterward, Yi Chen transferred one hundred thousand points to Airi as well.

Airi refused repeatedly, but she couldn't withstand Yi Chen's firm attitude.
