Chapter 32: Unbeatable Across Elementary Schools

After finishing his meal, Jiang Xincheng bought some instant noodles and other items. Seeing that he only had a few dozen Credit Points left, a bitter smile crossed his face. It seemed he had to find a part-time job soon to earn some money, or else he wouldn’t have enough to live on.

Carrying a large bag of things, Jiang Xincheng walked along the path toward his rented place. But before he had gone far, he frowned. He glanced behind him, thought for a moment, and deliberately headed toward a less crowded area.

Half an hour later, by the small river, Jiang Xincheng placed his big bag of instant noodles and sausages in a safe spot. He walked to the riverbank, stood still, and looked toward the bushes behind him.

“I didn’t expect you to notice me. It seems your alertness isn’t bad.” After a moment, a short, thin figure dressed in black leather, wearing a black mask and black sunglasses, slowly emerged from the bushes. He held a cigarette in his mouth and blew a smoke ring. “I take money to solve problems. Someone wants me to break your limbs. Will you do it yourself, or shall I do it? If you do it yourself, it’ll hurt less. If I do it, you’ll suffer a lot. Choose one.”

In a somewhat childish voice, the boy in black leather took a puff of his cigarette, blowing several more smoke rings.

Jiang Xincheng’s face remained calm. “Who sent you? Liu Yifeng, Liu Yijun, or Liu Ping?”

“That’s none of your business. I won’t reveal the client’s secrets.” The boy in black leather said coldly, “Hurry up and choose. I have things to do. Quickly break your own limbs and let’s be done with it.”

Jiang Xincheng smiled slightly and replied indifferently, “If you break your own limbs right now, I’ll let you leave.”

“Heh, it seems I’ve run into someone who won’t admit defeat until they see the coffin.” Jiang Xincheng’s words made the boy in black leather change expression. He tossed away his cigarette and strode toward Jiang Xincheng. “Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for being ruthless. Not only will I smash your limbs, but I’ll also destroy your fifth limb so you can never be a man again.”

As he spoke, the boy in black leather extended his hands, clenched them into fists, and threw a punch at Jiang Xincheng.

“Tiger Subduing Fist!”

Seeing the boy’s move, Jiang Xincheng frowned, recognizing its origin.

“I didn’t expect you to recognize Tiger Subduing Fist. It seems you’re not as useless as they say.” Jiang Xincheng’s words slightly startled the boy in black leather, who then accelerated, punching even faster toward Jiang Xincheng.

Facing this, Jiang Xincheng neither dodged nor avoided. He also clenched his fists, using Tiger Subduing Fist to meet the boy’s punch head-on.

Tiger Subduing Fist was not an Origin Force Combat Skill, but a common boxing technique widely spread from a previous era, originating from Shaolin Temple. Although it couldn’t fully unleash the power of internal Primordial Force, it was quite practical, allowing a Primordial Warrior to exert seventy to eighty percent of their Primordial Force attack power.

Jiang Xincheng had learned it in his past life and had even cultivated it to a certain level—at least much stronger than this boy in black leather.

“You can use Tiger Subduing Fist too.” Seeing Jiang Xincheng also employ Tiger Subduing Fist, the boy in black leather was stunned. “Good, good. It seems you’re not as useless as they claimed. You do have some skill.”

As he spoke, the boy in black leather’s fist slammed heavily into Jiang Xincheng’s fist—a direct clash, fist against fist. One was at the Late Tendon Training Stage, the other had just entered the Tendon Training Realm, merely at the Early Tendon Refining Stage of a Primordial Warrior.

“Boom…”

Amid the harsh impact sound, the boy in black leather staggered back several steps, dirt flying under his feet, his face filled with shock. “Impossible! Weren’t you at the Late Muscle-Tempering Stage? How could you match me in a direct clash? No—you’ve advanced to the Tendon Training Realm. That’s truly unexpected.”

Saying this, the boy in black leather charged forward again. “Even if you’ve reached the Tendon Training Realm, I’ll still beat you until you’re picking your teeth off the ground. I’ll show you how powerful I am.”

“So much talk!”

Faced with the chattering boy in black leather, Jiang Xincheng merely uttered a calm remark, which infuriated the boy. “You dare say I talk too much? Fine, fine! I, Zhuo, have been dominant for years, and no one has ever dared speak to me like that. You’re the first. Since that’s how it is, don’t blame me for being cruel today. Not only will I break your five limbs, I’ll also cut out your tongue and gouge out your eyes. You’ll regret this for the rest of your life! You…”

“Slap!”

Before the boy in black leather could finish, Jiang Xincheng seized the chance and slapped him across the face. The blow made stars flash before the boy’s eyes, and his black mask fell off, revealing a sinister-looking face. The face was actually somewhat delicate, but it was overshadowed by such a strong aura of malevolence that anyone could tell he was no good kid.

The reason he wasn’t called a bad person, but a bad kid, was because this boy looked only about sixteen or seventeen, probably still in high school, yet he had already cultivated to the Late Tendon Training Stage, indicating quite good talent.

“Zhuo Qiang!”

Seeing this bad kid’s face, Jiang Xincheng couldn’t help but exclaim, directly calling out the sixteen- or seventeen-year-old boy’s name. This startled the boy in black leather, Zhuo Qiang. “How do you know my name is Zhuo Qiang? Have we met before?”

Not only had they met—Jiang Xincheng was all too familiar with him. Even in his past life, with Jiang Xincheng’s limited knowledge, he had heard many stories about Zhuo Qiang.

Zhuo Qiang came from the wealthy Zhuo family in Tianhai City, with family assets exceeding ten million. Although not outrageously rich, they were certainly well-off, belonging to the middle class of Tianhai City.

Later, the Zhuo family became famous throughout Tianhai City because they produced a Pride of Heaven—Zhuo Qiang. He began cultivating Primordial Force at age ten, broke through to the Muscle Training Realm at thirteen, and stepped into the Tendon Training Realm. At sixteen, he broke through the Tendon Training Realm and entered the Bone Training Realm, becoming a leader among his peers in Tianhai City.

By the time he was nineteen and in his senior year of high school, he had even broken through the Bone Training Realm to become a Cloud Condensation Realm expert dominating the area. In that era of Primordial Force enlightenment, Zhuo Qiang’s talent was considered top-notch, even slightly surpassing that of the Chang’e Fairy, Xuanyuan Ningshuang, at the time.

But just as Zhuo Qiang, this Pride of Heaven renowned in Tianhai City, passed the college entrance exam and was about to enter Tianhai University, he had a conflict with an elementary school principal. In a fit of rage, he massacred the entire elementary school, killing over a thousand elementary school students.

This act severely violated the alliance laws. Several powerful experts from the Flourishing Tang Empire at the Late Cloud Condensation Stage joined forces and directly blasted Zhuo Qiang into pieces—dying as miserably as possible.

Not only was his death miserable, but it was also quite unjust. The conflict with that elementary school principal arose because Zhuo Qiang mistakenly believed the principal’s daughter was one of his ex-girlfriends. He went to the principal’s home to take the daughter away. The principal naturally refused, so Zhuo Qiang killed the principal and his family, forcibly took his daughter, and only then realized he had made a mistake. Enraged, he slaughtered the entire elementary school.

Because of this incident, Zhuo Qiang also earned an extremely notorious title.
