Senior Xiao Chenyu Causing Trouble

As soon as Ling Han returned to the academy, he heard a student say that the work-study students and the upperclassmen were going to have a fight at Back Mountain.

If nothing unexpected happened, it was Xiao Chenyu and his group from the original story coming to cause trouble.

The moment Tang San heard that Xiao Wu might be in danger, he grew extremely anxious.

Ling Han patted Tang San on the shoulder. "Go, Xiao San. If anything happens, your master has your back."

With Ling Han saying that, Tang San felt much more reassured and sped toward Back Mountain.

Ling Han, meanwhile, spread his Ice Wings and flew into the sky, preparing to observe from a distance.

After Tang San reached Back Mountain, he saw two groups gathered there.

The work-study students were led by Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Chenyu, you still want Sister Xiao Wu to be your pet? You can forget about it for the rest of your life! Today, Sister Xiao Wu is going to beat you until you're crawling on the ground!"

Xiao Wu had been the one to challenge the upperclassmen today, but it was also true that Xiao Chenyu had come to cause trouble for her.

What Xiao Chenyu had said was utterly humiliating to Xiao Wu. If she could tolerate that, she wouldn't be Xiao Wu.

"Heh heh, Xiao Wu, stop overestimating yourselves. We admit that you have some ability, but do you really think that group of work-study students behind you is any match for us?"

The speaker wasn't Xiao Chenyu, but one of his lackeys, Liu Long.

"Withered flower, fallen willow—do you even have the right to speak here?"

Wang Sheng stepped forward and pointed angrily at Liu Long.

"A defeated underling like you thinks you're worthy of speaking to me?"

Liu Long was utterly disdainful of Wang Sheng.

Xiao Chenyu hadn't said a word the entire time. He had merely been sizing Xiao Wu up with an amused look.

Then, just as in the original story, both sides sent someone out to fight: Wang Sheng and Liu Long.

Just then, Tang San arrived.

"Tang San, you're finally here!"

Xiao Wu was overjoyed when she saw Tang San, which made Xiao Chenyu feel a burst of displeasure.

After learning the whole story, Tang San's brows drew together slightly.

Thinking of what Ling Han had said earlier, Tang San decided to stretch his muscles a little.

At that moment, the battle between Liu Long and Wang Sheng was also nearing its end.

Just as in the original story, Wang Sheng failed to defeat Liu Long.

Tang San then stepped forward and looked at Xiao Chenyu.

"Xiao Chenyu, right? I challenge you."

Tang San's tone was very calm. There was none of the fervor or fighting spirit one might expect, because to him, teaching a child a lesson was as easy as pie.

Xiao Chenyu sneered disdainfully. "Xiao Wu, which lackey of yours is this? He actually thinks he can challenge me. What an overestimate of his own abilities!"

Xiao Wu patted Tang San on the shoulder and proudly said to Xiao Chenyu, "Xiao Chenyu, don't get cocky. Tang San is my strongest lackey. He'll definitely beat you until you're crawling on the ground!"

Xiao Chenyu snorted disdainfully. "Then come on. I'd like to see how capable this lackey of yours is!"

The crowd cleared out an open space for the two of them to fight.

Xiao Chenyu released his Martial Soul first.

As a wolf's howl rang out, the phantom image of a wolf appeared behind Xiao Chenyu. A white Soul Ring then rose from beneath his feet.

An eleventh-level, one-Soul-Ring Battle Soul Master—that was Xiao Chenyu's level.

Tang San also released his Martial Soul at that moment.

Blue Silver Grass, streaked with threads of bamboo green, appeared in the palm of his right hand.

"Hahaha, it's actually that useless Martial Soul, Blue Silver Grass..."

Before Xiao Chenyu could finish mocking him, his smile froze.

A yellow Soul Ring was rising from beneath Tang San's feet.

"How is that possible? It's actually a Hundred-Year Soul Ring?"

Looking at Tang San before him, Xiao Chenyu felt a sense of wariness rise in his heart.

He cautiously asked, "Are you really a work-study student?"

Xiao Chenyu's father was the lord of Nuoding City.

He had repeatedly warned Xiao Chenyu never to provoke the children of powerful clans.

After all, in a place like Douluo Continent, where strength was supreme, the patriarch of a powerful clan could even command more respect than the emperor.

Tang San nodded. "The genuine article."

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be joking, Xiao Chenyu no longer hesitated and launched his attack.

Both possessed Beast Martial Souls, but Xiao Chenyu's fighting style was far better than Wang Sheng's.

After all, he had come from the city lord's residence. It was impossible for him to have no combat skills at all.

But no matter what, he still couldn't defeat Tang San.

In his previous life, Tang San had been a disciple of the Tang Sect. He was proficient in various Hidden Weapons and Tang Sect techniques.

Just as Xiao Chenyu's wolf claws struck toward Tang San, Tang San's hands transformed into the color of jade and he took the wolf claws head-on.

Tang San's level was higher than Xiao Chenyu's, so he didn't fall behind in this exchange.

Then, several strands of Blue Silver Grass drilled out of the ground and attacked Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu was disdainful. He swung the wolf claws in his hands, preparing to cut the Blue Silver Grass apart.

But the scene he had imagined—of the Blue Silver Grass being chopped to pieces as easily as slicing vegetables—didn't appear.

His proudly touted wolf claws landed on the Blue Silver Grass, yet failed to leave even a mark.

No one noticed that the first Soul Ring beneath Tang San's feet was shining brightly.

He had activated his first Soul Skill to strengthen the Blue Silver Grass's toughness, which was why the wolf claws couldn't cut through it.

Then, while Xiao Chenyu was busy dealing with the Blue Silver Grass, Tang San stepped on the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and instantly closed the distance.

Several more strands of Blue Silver Grass appeared, binding Xiao Chenyu tightly.

With the toughness enhancement, no matter how Xiao Chenyu struggled, he couldn't break the Blue Silver Grass.

Because his Soul Power was lower than Tang San's, he had no chance of exhausting Tang San's Soul Power.

Tang San walked up to Xiao Chenyu, gripped his neck with one hand, and said, "You lost. Go apologize to Xiao Wu."

Xiao Chenyu was still stubborn. "It's impossible for me to lose. There's something wrong with your Blue Silver Grass!"

"Smack!" Tang San slapped him across the face.

He had used the Mysterious Jade Hand for that slap, leaving a blood-red handprint directly on Xiao Chenyu's cheek.

The pain nearly made Xiao Chenyu faint, and he could even feel that his teeth had loosened.

"You're just a work-study student, yet you dare hit me? In all my years, even my father has never hit me!"

The next second, "Smack!" Another slap landed.

This time, both of Xiao Chenyu's cheeks swelled up.

From a distance, Ling Han saw how much Xiao Chenyu resembled Yu Xiaogang back then and couldn't help laughing. "Hahaha, as expected of my disciple."

After those two slaps, Xiao Chenyu became obedient and agreed to apologize.

After this battle, Tang San's name spread throughout the academy.

Wang Sheng's big mouth was still the most effective means of spreading the news.

According to him, Tang San had been practically a god descending to the mortal world, beating Xiao Chenyu into total defeat.

When they heard that the sixth-grade school bully had been beaten so badly by a first-year work-study student, many people in the academy began to admire Tang San.

However, many others also worried about Tang San. After all, Ling Han still hadn't publicly revealed that Tang San was his disciple, so everyone believed that Tang San was merely a work-study student without any backing.

Xiao Chenyu's father, on the other hand, was the lord of Nuoding City. That was why they were worried about Tang San.
