Implication
The sudden change stunned everyone in the private room.
Xu Yuan and Qian Hui’s expressions changed when they saw who those people were.
The tall young man leading the group looked around the private room. When he saw Xu Yuan and Qian Hui, he immediately sneered.
“I see the two of you are in a good mood. You’re actually in the mood to sing karaoke!”
Xu Yuan took a step forward and blocked his girlfriend behind him. He said with a straight face, “Zhou Zhihai, what are you doing here? This is our private room. You’re not welcome here. Get lost!”
Zhou Zhihai’s face darkened. He pointed at Xu Yuan and scolded, “Xu, you stole my woman and still dare to be so arrogant to me. Do you really think I won’t hit you?”
At the side, Zheng Hongsheng saw that the intruders had ill intentions and wanted to step forward to mediate the fight. When he heard this, he immediately stopped and looked at Xu Yuan in shock.
Even Lin Shen raised his eyebrows.
“Bullshit! Zhou Zhihai, don’t slander me!” Xu Yuanfeng’s face turned red.
Zhou Zhihai sneered. “Am I wrong? If you hadn’t interfered, would Qian Hui have broken up with me?”
This time, before Xu Yuan could retort, Qian Hui, who had been hiding behind him, suddenly stepped forward. She mustered her courage and shouted,
“Zhou Zhihai, that’s not true! We broke up three months ago. At that time, I didn’t even know Xu Yuan. Our breakup had nothing to do with him!”
Zhou Zhihai glanced at Qian Hui from the corner of his eyes and snorted coldly. “You can say whatever you want. No one can tell if you’re telling the truth. Anyway, I can’t take this lying down. If I don’t teach you two a lesson today, nobody will respect me in the future!”
With that, he walked toward the two of them in an aggressive manner.
Seeing this, Zheng Hongsheng smiled awkwardly and blocked Zhou Zhihai’s way. He tried to dissuade him, “Let’s talk things out. Zhou Zhihai, we’re all from the same academy and will meet on a daily basis. There’s no need to be so angry.
“I’ve known Xu Yuan for a long time. I know his personality. He’s definitely not the kind of person who would interfere with other people’s relationships. There must be a misunderstanding between the two of you!”
As he spoke, Zheng Hongsheng turned around and gave Xu Yuan a look, indicating for him to stop talking.
Zhou Zhihai was quite famous in Willow Academy. Not only was he at Level 5 of the Qi Transformation Stage, but he also came from a declining old family.
Although it wasn’t as impressive as the eighteen influential families, it wasn’t something ordinary students like them could afford to offend.
Under such circumstances, it was better to settle things peacefully. Admitting defeat and losing some dignity wasn’t such a big deal.
However, even though Zheng Hongsheng had thought it through, Zhou Zhihai wasn’t going to let them off easily. He simply pushed Zheng Hongsheng away.
Caught off guard, Zheng Hongsheng cried out and fell to the ground. His back hit the corner of the coffee table, and he grimaced in pain.
Zhou Zhihai glanced at him disdainfully and sneered. “Who do you think you are? How dare you block my way? Hear this. Today, I’ll teach that Xu a lesson and let you know that there are some people you can’t mess with!”
As soon as Zhou Zhihai finished speaking, the four young men behind him took a step forward with ferocious looks in their eyes.
Although Xu Yuan was very afraid of Zhou Zhihai, he still had some courage. Zhou had provoked and humiliated him in front of his buddies and girlfriend, and he could no longer suppress his anger. He looked up and glared at Zhou Zhihai.
“Zhou Zhihai, if you want to fight, bring it on. Do you think I’m afraid of you?”
Zhou Zhihai grinned and clenched his fists.
“Very good. I hope you can still be so tough in a moment.”
After that, he looked at Zheng Hongsheng and Lin Shen, pointed at the two of them, and instructed his companions behind him, “Teach these two guys a lesson too!”
The four young men laughed when they heard this. They split up and walked toward Zheng Hongsheng and Lin Shen with unfriendly expressions.
“Don’t do anything stupid!” Zheng Hongsheng was shocked. He didn’t expect these people to be so arrogant.
Xu Yuan’s expression also changed. He said angrily, “Zhou Zhihai, do whatever you want to me. Don’t mess with my friends!”
“Well, they can only blame themselves for making friends with the wrong person. I’ll teach them a lesson today…”
Before Zhou Zhihai could finish, he was interrupted by a miserable howl.
He turned around just in time to see one of his companions being kicked away and slammed into the wall.
Before he could react, another companion was punched in the stomach. He immediately knelt on the ground, his face turning purple. He held his stomach and couldn’t even speak.
Lin Shen, who had easily taken care of the two men, clapped his hands and looked at Zhou Zhihai calmly.
“Blaming others for your own problems isn’t a good habit. If I were you, I would leave the private room immediately.”
Although Zhou Zhihai had a bad temper, he wasn’t a fool.
The two men lying on the ground weren’t strong, but they were still at the third level of the Qi Transformation Stage. However, they were easily knocked down. Zhou realized Lin Shen was very likely at the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage.
Zhou Zhihai didn’t act rashly. He sized Lin Shen up and narrowed his eyes. “Who are you?”
One of his friends seemed to have recognized Lin Shen and hurriedly ran to Zhou Zhihai’s side to whisper a few words.
Zhou Zhihai’s expression changed as he looked at Lin Shen in surprise.
“So you’re Lin Shen!”
The news that Lin Shen had broken through to the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage in a short period of time had already spread throughout the entire third grade. Naturally, Zhou Zhihai had heard of it.
However, he didn’t know Lin Shen was Xu Yuan’s friend.
If he had known Lin Shen was here, he would have only targeted Xu Yuan and Qian Hui just now and not dragged Lin Shen into this.
After all, an elite student at the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage was quite troublesome.
However, his two companions were still lying on the ground. If he let Lin Shen go just like that, he probably wouldn’t be able to maintain his prestige among his companions in the future.
At this point, he could only attack!
“Luckily, this guy is said to have just broken through to the fifth level and. His cultivation hasn’t stabilized yet. I think I have a good chance of defeating him.”
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Zhihai had already made up his mind. He snorted heavily.
“You have a sharp tongue, but I’d like to see what you can do to me.”
Before Lin Shen could respond, Zhou Zhihai had already pounced at him, giving Lin Shen no time to react.
...
“Shame on you!”
Xu Yuan cursed and wanted to help Lin Shen, but he was blocked by Zhou Zhihai’s friends.
On the other side, Zheng Hongsheng had just gotten up from the ground when he was blocked by another man.
After all, Zheng Hongsheng was still a student. He was young and impetuous. Seeing how aggressive Zhou Zhihai and his friends had been, anger filled Zheng Hongsheng’s chest. He simply shouted and charged at them.
In the blink of an eye,
the private room became a chaotic battlefield.
The six youngsters fought fiercely. Shouts and the muffled sounds of colliding fists and flesh rang out continuously.
Qian Hui, the only girl in the room, and the two boys knocked down by Lin Shen had yet to catch their breath on the ground and didn’t participate in the battle.
Seeing the six of them fight, Qian Hui was so frightened that her face turned pale. She repeatedly shouted,
“Stop fighting!”
