Chapter 17 Raise Your Head
Chu Wen's kick earlier was perfectly timed.
The opponent is only at the intermediate level of warrior strength. One kick from me should be enough to keep him bedridden for a month. Consider it a lesson learned.
But everyone was stunned by Chu Wen's domineering methods.
"Who are you?"
"How dare they injure someone at Wuhan University in Hangzhou?!"
"Sparring match, and they actually used such force?"
Seven students came to Xinhang Martial Arts University. At most, they were at the intermediate level of warriors. Chu Wen could determine their strength with just a glance.
Ignoring their questions, Chu Wen simply stood there and said calmly, "Who is Xu Wenliang? Step forward."
"Didn't you say you'd take down Chen Dai in two moves? I'll give you two chances. If you manage to touch me, I'll admit defeat."
Chu Wen glanced at it, his gaze icy.
He swallowed back all the questions and insults.
Just kidding, he kicked a mid-level warrior away, and that classmate hasn't gotten up for so long, he must be seriously injured!
They hadn't even seen how the other party made their move!
"What? Either one of you lies in bed for a month, or the remaining six of you lie in bed together for a month."
After saying this, all five of them took a step back in unison.
Xu Wenliang immediately broke out in a cold sweat: "You can't hit me! My family is the Xu family, a family of martial arts..."
Bang~!
With just one punch, Xu Wenliang collapsed to his knees, convulsing, his face deathly pale, and he retching uncontrollably.
Chu Wen slowly squatted down, grabbed the other person's hair, and said coldly, "Tell me, what other backers do you have?"
"Otherwise, a month of lying down isn't enough."
"After all, there are seven of you. You'll have to stay in bed for at least seven months."
Xu Wenliang was in tears, his mouth open but unable to make a sound, his face contorted, and his head filled with nothing but pain!
"Waaah...waaah..."
"What? Not saying anything now? So stubborn."
Bang!
Xu Wenliang's body was thrown out and rolled several times on the ground before he lost consciousness.
The other five people dared not utter a sound.
"What? Take them to the infirmary. Remember to hurry, or they'll be ruined."
Chu Wen glanced at them, then ignored them and turned to look at the group from the Jiangnan faction.
There were only twenty-three students and one female teacher.
"Why are there so few people? Weren't there over a hundred students from Jiangnan Martial Arts University?"
"They've all gone on missions, and Wuhan University has more mission resources..." Chen Dai explained.
Several of those who recognized Chu Wen shouted, "Some of them were tricked and taken away. Those who didn't come are all in the regular dormitory area! They're not in the old dormitory area."
Chu Wen nodded slightly: "Liu Changshou, lead the way."
Liu Changshou, who was standing to the side, finally emerged from behind the stone pillar, his face deathly still: "This... Brother, your move was too..."
"It's alright, they won't die." Chu Wen pointed at Chen Dai. "Let's go, lest our own people get bullied."
The regular dormitory area is located in a remote part of the new Hangzhou Wuhan University.
The majority of people living here are freshmen, along with some martial artists from other factions who have come to learn; it's a mixed bag.
Only freshmen who advance from martial arts master to warrior are allowed to move out of here and live in the primary dormitory area.
The regular dormitory area does not have single rooms, but rather eight-person rooms.
As soon as Chu Wen entered, he could sense the bustling atmosphere of the market, with many martial arts practitioners setting up stalls.
In a dimly lit classroom in the dormitory area.
Dozens of boys were squatting on the ground in fear, their hands covering their heads, their faces pale. Some were too weak to move and were swaying precariously, but they dared not move.
"If you lose, then you'd better hand over your money honestly."
"I didn't force you to go up to the ring. What? You lost everything? Then just lose your lives. It's not a big deal. Just give us the resources the department gives us in the future."
"Running away with your tail between your legs, that's what you stray dogs from Jiangnan Base City should do."
"Useless trash, can't even defend their own base city. Yet they dare to come and steal our meat."
"What? You're supposed to be the face of Jiangnan Martial Arts University, not living in abandoned old school buildings, and this is all the strength you've got?"
"Liang, Brother Liang, please let us go. We're not going to live in the regular dormitories anymore... We're going to the abandoned dormitories."
"Oh, you're here. You think you can just leave? No way."
"Weren't you all so arrogant just a few days ago? What's wrong? You've fought in the ring for a few days, risked your life, and now you want to run away?"
"You can run away, but leave your dominant hand here."
"Don't want to part with your useless hand? Then sign it. If you sign, I'll let you go."
A total of 36 contracts were laid out before these people, with the amounts and resources they voluntarily donated listed above them. These resources represented almost the sum of all the resources they could obtain during their entire study period at Wuhan University.
Brother Liang didn't push too hard, otherwise it would have caused trouble for the school administration. The amount was just right.
"What? Brother Liang has already planned ahead. Others might not even survive. At most, Brother Liang will just humiliate you a little."
The henchman tossed a few pieces of clothing over, saying, "We're not so bad as to let you go out naked."
But there were only six pieces of clothing in total, and there were thirty-six of them!
Hahahaha.
A group of people burst into laughter, looking at these spendthrift dogs who had lost everything.
Bang!
On the steps not far away, the sturdy iron gate was instantly dented.
The humiliating laughter abruptly stopped, and the group of people suddenly looked at the recessed threshold.
Boom!
A beam of light shone down, and the iron gate instantly shattered into pieces.
Chu Wen slowly walked down the steps from the top and looked at his classmates who were squatting on the ground, trying to cover themselves up.
He then coldly glanced at a man sitting on the open ground.
"The new Hangzhou Wuhan University is no different from the mafia. I was wrong about it."
"Who are you, daring to trespass on Brother Liang's territory?"
Beside Chu Wen, Liu Changshou reluctantly entered. "Brother Liang, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sell you out. This is the strongest martial artist in Jiangnan... Please don't..."
The man called Brother Liang stretched out his arm and interrupted, "Who do we have here to stick our necks out? Those who can't even get a place in the regular dormitories, you might as well stay with them."
"I'd love to see how pathetic you look after you've lost everything."
Liang was extremely displeased when he saw Chu Wen. He hated that kind of look the most. Who did the other person think he was?
With a single, bold step, the floor cracked! A fierce wind howled, and the air currents throughout the room surged!
Chu Wen simply turned slightly to the side, and Brother Liang fell face-first into the ground.
Chu Wen stomped down, and the sound of bones breaking rang out.
Harsh, sharp.
Brother Liang didn't even utter a sound before he fainted.
"When he wakes up, tell him that if he wants to reconcile with me, he should squat like this by the roadside."
Chu Wen glanced at Brother Liang's henchmen and didn't make another move.
"The new Hangzhou Wuhan University is just a breeding ground for garbage."
Liu Changshou followed behind, raising his voice: "Where are your clothes? If you don't have any, we'll just strip you naked!"
After a brief commotion, the students were led away by Chen Dai, each with their heads down, looking ashamed to face anyone.
Chen Dai's voice was hoarse as he said, "Where is your backbone when you covered the retreat from the base city? Do you have any respect for the teachers and classmates who died?!"
"Lift your head up!"
