Chapter 74

That is, Wu Liang's physique was a bit more exaggerated than he had imagined; just look at the other's solid biceps and forearms.

Isn't this a bit too exaggerated? Did Wu Liang, that scoundrel, already have this physique a month ago?

Look at Wu Liang's muscular physique; it doesn't look like the build a student should have.

Thinking about this, the thug couldn't help but swallow hard. In a one-on-one fight, he didn't seem to be up to the task.

"I have three great hobbies: reading books, reading newspapers, and drinking tea."

"I have three things I hate: fighting, fighting, fighting."

Wu Liang held up one finger and shook it; what he disliked most in his life was fighting and killing.

"I only retaliated because you provoked me beforehand. If you still have any complaints, I can apologize to you."

Wu Liang shrugged; he didn't want to escalate the situation any further.

He had already been warned not to cause any more trouble, or his mother might punish him.

"Apologize?"

The thug was stunned, the Rat was stunned, and Han Yu, who was eagerly waiting behind, was even more stunned.

Wu Liang actually took the initiative to apologize to someone? And to a group of thugs no less—this was something they hadn't expected at all.

This doesn't seem like Wu Liang's usual behavior at all. Is the sun rising in the west?

"If you are willing to leave this place with Di Yue's group and forgive and forget, I can sincerely apologize to you."

Wu Liang glanced at the thugs around him and roughly counted their numbers.

Twenty-five people, or twenty-six if you include the Pompadour Head in front of you...

"Well..."

Han Yu shook her head in disappointment. So even with a pompadour hairstyle, it didn't work.

The Wu Liang of today is no longer the spoiled young master who captivated her; he has completely transformed into a timid and hesitant rich second-generation.

It was so disappointing. She had thought that Wu Liang would regain his former domineering nature after styling his hair in a pompadour.

Did she misjudge him? Wu Liang is no longer the same as he used to be.

"Wu Liang actually apologizes to someone...?"

The students who had been observing from a distance were also murmuring in disbelief.

That scoundrel young master who never even looks people in the eye actually bowed his head and apologized... and he was with a group of thugs no less...

"Pfft... Pfft hahaha!!!"

The Pompadour Head suddenly burst into laughter as he looked at the serious-looking Wu Liang.

Hahaha, this is hilarious! That so-called villain Wu Liang actually bowed his head on his own initiative?!

This is really strange. The gangster boss who used to fight to the death is actually apologizing to him?

"Is that true? You really want to apologize to me?? Then can you kneel down and lick my shoes while you apologize, hahaha!!"

The Pompadour Head burst into laughter, and the surrounding thugs from the Imperial Moon Sect also mocked him after hearing Wu Liang's show of weakness.

Is this the backbone of the hooligans at the Huihuangxing Academy? They'll do anything to avoid getting beaten up.

"I apologize, but I'm not so shameless as to have no bottom line."

Wu Liang scratched the back of his head in frustration. Communicating with this group of idiots was really exhausting.

He wouldn't get angry because of their provocation; after all, they were just a group of high school students.

Harmony is his motto in life. No matter what happens, he will try his best to avoid conflict with the other party and choose a peaceful solution.

But there's nothing that can be done about it. After all, he's a good young man who loves prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, the rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness.

"I thought you were someone important Wu Liang, but it turns out you can only be arrogant when there are many of you."

"When you're all alone, you're really just a coward with a cow dung hairstyle."

The Pompadour Head waved his baseball bat and said mockingly.

He's just a pretentious young master; he only feels confident when there are many people around.

When he's all alone, he's as cowardly as a dog, it's really laughable...

A dark shadow flashed past my eyes, and the whistling wind of the incoming fists whistled past my ears.

Bang

A muffled thud resounded across the ground. Staring blankly at the azure sky above, the Pompadour Head couldn't understand why he was lying on his back on the ground.

The warmth from his nose made him reach out to wipe it, but when he looked down, he found his hands were covered in bright red blood.

"Huh?"

The thug with the Pompadour Head stared blankly at the patch of bright red blood on his hand, then felt a piercing pain shoot through his nose...

Chapter 10: The Real "One-on-One Showdown" (Bonus Chapter 4/10 for Monthly Tickets)

No one saw what had just happened.

Even the Pompadour Head thug himself was unaware of what had happened to him.

All he knew was that something had broken the bridge of his nose, and the intense pain was traveling through his nerves to his brain.

"Aaaaaaah!!"

He lay on the ground, covering his nose and rolling around, looking exactly like a clown.

Clutching his broken nose, he screamed in pain, his Pompadour Head completely devoid of its previous arrogance and swagger.

What exactly happened? What happened in that less than one second?

It felt like being hit head-on by a heavy motorcycle. Had he just been hit by something heavy?

The thugs around him stared blankly at the Pompadour Head rolling on the ground.

To be honest, they hadn't seen what happened before; they only remembered that this guy was provoking Wu Liang.

But the next second he flew out and crashed heavily to the ground. By the time they came to their senses, the guy was already screaming in agony.

"Wu... Wu Liang, classmate..."

Han Yu stared in shock at Wu Liang standing in front of her.

She saw Wu Liang make his move just now. Although it was only for a brief moment, it was indeed Wu Liang who made that thug end up in that miserable state.

Even though she was standing so close to Wu Liang, she could only see a fleeting afterimage of his punch.

"Boss... Boss? Didn't you say we should prioritize harmony...?"

The Rat's expression was very strange at this moment. Why didn't its boss give any warning before making a move?

Didn't the boss say he wanted to resolve this peacefully? What happened to the principle of valuing peace?

What happened to your motto of "harmony is precious"...? You said the thing you hate most is fighting... You're not playing by the rules here...

"Wu Liang... you damned bastard, you actually resorted to underhanded tactics!!!"

The thug, his hands stained with blood, grimaced and cursed in pain.

He stood up awkwardly, clutching his injured nose. It was definitely that bastard Wu Liang who had hurt him.

Damn it, Wu Liang actually launched a sneak attack! I was careless and that's why I fell victim to his move. This guy is still as cunning as ever.

"Weren't you all here to teach him a lesson too? I've already been beaten up and you're just sitting here watching? You'd better teach him a good lesson!"

"Are those weapons just for show? As long as no one gets killed, that's all that matters. Give them a good beating!"

The thug with the Pompadour Head haircut pulled a handkerchief from his pocket and covered his broken nose to stop the bleeding.

The sudden, sharp pain from the wound made him cry out in agony. Damn it, Wu Liang's punch felt like a cannonball.

"You actually injured one of our Emperor Moon's people? Don't think we're afraid of you just because you're some country bumpkin."

"Why waste so much breath on him? Grab your weapons and get him! I'll smash that pile of shit on his head to shreds."

The thugs from Di Yue picked up their weapons and surrounded Wu Liang.

The students of the Huihuangxing Academy couldn't help but feel worried for Wu Liang after witnessing this scene.

Although the previous heavy punch was indeed very satisfying and made them all feel a secret sense of satisfaction.

Let's see how arrogant you people of Diyue are, let's see how you people of Diyue dare to come here to provoke and shout, now you've got a beating!

But that was only because Wu Liang launched a surprise attack that it succeeded. If those thugs had taken it seriously...

Even if Wu Liang is a skilled fighter, it's impossible for him to fight so many people by himself.

"What did you just say?"

Wu Liang slowly raised his head and pointed to a Blondie man not far to his right.

He clearly intended to resolve the issue peacefully from the start, and apologizing to someone isn't particularly difficult.

Moreover, he didn't want to make a big deal out of it, and he didn't want the Nan Zhu and the female leads to have a bad impression of him because of this.

If a group fight causes your image to plummet in the eyes of the Nan Zhu and the female leads, then you're doomed, it's a huge loss.

But for some reason, he would become extremely irritable after hearing anything that insulted his hairstyle.

This irritability seemed to come from an instinct deep within him, making him exceptionally violent.

It's hard to control the underlying emotions deep inside. If someone touches on that point, Wu Liang might really lose control of his body.

"What? I said... I said you... I didn't say anything..."

The Blondie, who was being pointed at, stepped forward with a fierce aura. Just as he was about to hurl a tirade, he suddenly met Wu Liang's eyes, which were as cold as an abyss.

A sudden chill ran down his spine, and the Blondie thug suddenly had the illusion that he was being targeted by a ferocious beast.

The gaze, as if looking at a corpse, sent chills down his spine, and the words he wanted to say stuck in his throat.

He stood obediently to one side, not daring to speak, and shrank his neck, keeping his mouth shut.

"You're such a coward, you wilted just because someone pointed at you? How did I ever meet such an idiot like you?"

Another thug emerged from the crowd, wielding a baton, and mocked the companion who had been scared off by Wu Liang earlier.

You get scared like this just from being glared at? What use are you?

"So what if you have a dick on your head? Look at your thick, black, stinky head, what kind of game is that..."

Before the thug could finish speaking, he was already flying high into the air.

The impact, like a truck hitting his chest, sent him flying several meters away.

She fell to the ground like a rag doll, pointed a trembling finger at Wu Liang, rolled her eyes, and fainted.

"Holy crap..."

The Rat nearly popped its eyes out when it saw this.

That's insane! I know our boss is pretty good at fighting too.

But the boss used to rely on sneak attacks and dirty tricks. He could only take down several people by catching them off guard.

How come the current boss is acting like he's on drugs, as fierce as an ox, taking down two people with a single punch and kick?

If things continue like this, let alone twenty-odd people, even if another twenty-odd people came, they might still be able to defeat them.

"Holy crap? Is this for real? The person flew away??"

"Are they filming a movie? Or am I seeing things??"

The thugs were dumbfounded. Wu Liang had just kicked someone and sent them flying three meters away.

Is this high school level? This is ridiculous! That kick should have sent the person flying!

"Are you going to take me on one-on-one, or am I going to take on all of you one-on-one?"

Wu Liang cracked his knuckles and muttered to himself, feeling irritable. A strong sense of irritability was sweeping through his brain.

After his hairstyle was insulted by these thugs, he couldn't suppress the restlessness in his heart.

"Hey, this guy's getting more and more arrogant! Let's all teach him a lesson!!"
