Chapter 21: Defeating the Enemy in Three Moves
Chapter 21: Defeating the Enemy in Three Moves
An hour later, Liu Yifeng pointed at Jiang Xincheng, panting heavily. “Even though it was a hundred moves, a few times I hit you so hard you had to dodge by lying flat on the ground. So that counts as beating you. I don’t need to keep my earlier promise either.”
“With you being so shameless, what else can I say?” Jiang Xincheng’s face was expressionless. He had now truly grasped just how disgraceful Liu Yifeng could be.
The students from the College of Computer Science below the stage had finally stopped shouting insults. They finally understood what it meant to have a face thicker than a city wall, impervious to cannon fire.
Liu Yijun and his group felt thoroughly embarrassed. They hardly dared to look at the surrounding Computer Science students. Today had been a monumental loss of face.
“You hit me a hundred times,” Jiang Xincheng said coldly. “Now it’s your turn to take three moves from me.”
Liu Yifeng frowned. “That’s unfair. I’ve used eighty to ninety percent of my Primordial Force. But you just dodged the whole time. You probably haven’t even used thirty percent of yours. Let me rest a moment…”
“Rest your mother!” Jiang Xincheng had had enough. Without another word, he threw both fists towards Liu Yifeng.
He truly hadn’t foreseen Liu Yifeng sinking to such depths of shamelessness. Liu Yijun’s actions had already opened his eyes, but unexpectedly, just when you believe it can’t get worse, Liu Yifeng proved himself an even bigger master of disgrace than his brother.
Jiang Xincheng had already let him have so many moves, yet now Liu Yifeng dared to claim it was unfair. He’d seen shameless people, but never like this.
“Jiang Xincheng, how dare you!”
Seeing Jiang Xincheng’s fists lunge at him like lightning, Liu Yifeng forgot about demanding rest. Hastily, he raised his own fists to meet them.
Seeing this, a flash of cold light glinted in Jiang Xincheng’s eyes. He pushed his Mountain-Shaking Fist to its absolute limit. Primordial Force surged wildly within him as he struck with overwhelming force.
“The first strike!”
Crack! Crack! The sound of bones breaking…
“Aah… My arms…”
…
Facing Jiang Xincheng’s immensely powerful Mountain-Shaking Fist, Liu Yifeng couldn’t muster even a semblance of defense. Both his arms were instantly broken by Jiang Xincheng. He fell back, screaming in agony.
Jiang Xincheng didn’t relent. He struck again, this time smashing his fists into Liu Yifeng’s legs.
“The second strike!”
Crack! Crack! More bone sounds…
“Aah… My legs…”
…
Liu Yifeng’s legs were shattered.
“The third strike!”
Crack! Crack! Again…
“Aah… My ribs…”
…
Over half of Liu Yifeng’s ribs were broken. He collapsed onto the stage, unconscious.
Within mere seconds, just three moves, Liu Yifeng – who had been dominating the fight, aggressive and overbearing mere moments ago – now lay with broken limbs and shattered ribs, defeated by Jiang Xincheng.
Furthermore, Jiang Xincheng had also used a hidden force technique to injure Liu Yifeng’s Dantian. This was a profound technique for manipulating Primordial Force, one that wouldn’t emerge for decades. No Primordial Warrior of this era could recognize it, let alone use it.
After being struck by Jiang Xincheng’s hidden force, Liu Yifeng’s Dantian would deteriorate within a year. From then on, his strength could never progress again.
The move was extremely vicious. Jiang Xincheng wouldn’t have resorted to such cruelty if Liu Yifeng hadn’t been utterly shameless.
Silence had fallen below the stage. Ninety-nine percent of the onlookers hadn’t anticipated this outcome. The loser wasn’t the sophomore ‘genius’ Liu Yifeng, but the freshman ‘useless trash’ Jiang Xincheng.
A hundred percent of them never imagined Liu Yifeng would lose so spectacularly, or that Jiang Xincheng’s strength was so formidable. If Jiang Xincheng still counted as a useless trash freshman, then how many students at Tianhai University weren’t trash?
An unknown length of time passed before the heavy silence was pierced by a shrill scream.
“Jiang Xincheng! How dare you break my brother’s limbs and ribs?! You lot! Go up there now and kill this bastard to avenge my brother!”
It was Liu Yijun shrieking. The second part was shouted at the group of students who had come with Liu Yifeng.
However, even after his command, the group didn’t budge. Not one moved to listen.
“What are you waiting for?! Planning mutiny?! Get up there now!” Liu Yijun fumed, jabbing his finger at the group and yelling.
Still, no one stirred. Instead, a voice rose from among them.
“It’s just a sparring match. Wins and losses are normal! Liu Yijun lost fair and square. What ‘avenge’? What ‘hatred’?”
Liu Yijun’s face paled. “You… whose side are you on anyway?! How dare you speak like that!”
“Side?! He’s just the vice-captain of the Sky Soaring club! So what? We’re just ordinary members, not his little lackeys. Hmph!”
“That’s right! Our business is none for you brothers to boss us around.”
“Such a shameless vice-captain! Following him is humiliating. We were blind before!”
“He was always shameless, but there were limits! This time he went too far. Not even a woman would stoop so low!”
…
After hurling insults like this for a moment, the Sky Soaring club members walked away swiftly under Liu Yijun’s furious glare, completely ignoring Liu Yifei unconscious on the stage.
Jiang Xincheng glanced at the flushed-faced Liu Yijun, a cold sneer touching his lips, then walked down towards Lin Anan, Chen Dianming, and the others.
“Jiang Xincheng! You’re incredible! Liu Yifeng couldn’t even take three moves! You’re way stronger than me! Only Ningshuang might compare!” Chen Dianming exclaimed.
“Second Bro! What magic pills did you take?! When did you get so strong?! Even a Tendon Training Realm Primordial Warrior wasn’t your match! You hid your strength before!” Li Yuqiang added, shaking his head.
…
Lin Anan, Chen Dianming, and the others rushed to meet him. Their faces were jubilant but also filled with utter disbelief.
Jiang Xincheng smiled faintly and caught Lin Anan’s small fist as she playfully aimed it at his chest.
Lin Anan’s jade-like face flushed red. She pulled her hand back. “Let’s go eat. My treat. Call all your dorm mates. Everyone together!”
Before Jiang Xincheng could respond, Chen Dianming, Li Yuqiang, and others couldn’t suppress their cheers.
Lin Anan’s dorm was legendary. One was the undisputed top beauty of Tianhai University, the School Belle herself. Another was the College Flower of Finance and Economics College, ranked among Tianhai University’s top three beauties. The other two weren’t bad-looking either. Countless male dorms dreamt of a joint dorm event with them. Now such an opportunity had landed right in their laps! How could they say no?
“Yes! A hundred thousand times yes!”
“Second Bro, you have to agree! Or don’t come back tonight!”
…
The exaggerated reactions of Chen Dianming and his friends made Lin Anan’s group giggle helplessly. Naturally, Jiang Xincheng wouldn’t spoil his brothers’ fun. “Alright. It’s almost noon. Let’s head out now. But be warned, my dorm brothers have huge appetites. They’re like pigs. Anan, prepare yourself for a hefty bill.”
“Second Bro! How can you talk like that?! Are we really that gluttonous?! Don’t sully our reputations!”
“You’re the biggest pig here, and you dare talk about us?”
“Boss! Third Bro! Fourth Bro! Go home! Married guys aren’t allowed!”
…
Even before Lin Anan could respond, Chen Dianming and the rest protested loudly, turning against Jiang Xincheng and bickering among themselves.
“Giggle…” Xuanyuan Ningshuang and the others laughed so hard they doubled over.
Seeing Lin Anan and Jiang Xincheng looking so happy, Liu Yijun glared with hatred. “Jiang Xincheng! I won’t let you off! The Liu family won’t let you off either! And you, Lin Anan, you shameless bitch!”
“Our Liu Family has dozens of Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors! Any one of them casually dispatched can grind you all into dust! Just you wait!”
Jiang Xincheng’s expression flickered slightly. He lifted his head to look at Liu Yijun. “Fine. I’ll be waiting for your Liu family Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors. I want to see if your father listens to you enough to send Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors into a petty schoolboy feud.”
“Liu Yijun, you really are beyond help,” Lin Anan said sharply, her pretty face clouded with anger. “Losing the challenge was bad enough, but then you have to drag your father out to threaten people? Are you stuck in first grade? How utterly pathetic.”
Liu Yijun’s face darkened like rotten liver for a long moment before twisting in a snarl. “Family power is power! That’s just how things work! If you don’t like it, bring Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors too!”
“You…” Lin Anan pointed at the shameless Liu Yijun, unable to find the words.
Jiang Xincheng gently took Lin Anan’s small hand. “Let’s go, Anan. We’ll deal with soldiers by blocking them, water by damming it when it comes. This is trivial school stuff. The Liu family won’t send Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors over it. Don’t worry about his empty threats.”
“Mhm.” Lin Anan nodded and followed Jiang Xincheng towards the restaurants outside.
However, Jiang Xincheng’s expression gradually darkened. While the Liu brothers couldn’t summon Bone Training Realm Primordial Warriors for something like this, they could certainly send Tendon Training Realm late-stage warriors.
With his own current strength at Late Muscle-Tempering Stage, even with the Mountain-Shaking Fist, he stood no chance against a Late Tendon Training Stage Primordial Warrior. It looked like he needed to tread carefully in the coming days and focus urgently on boosting his power.
