Ye Chen's counterattack was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples that spread outwards. The atmosphere in the classroom became unusual, and the students' perceptions of Ye Chen underwent a dramatic change. The once obscure and often bullied Ye Chen now displayed astonishing strength and courage in an unexpected way.
Zhao Gang and his followers lay on the hospital beds in the infirmary, many of them experiencing the taste of failure for the first time. Ye Chen not only defeated them in strength but also dealt them a heavy blow psychologically. They began to doubt their past actions, feeling a surge of unease and confusion.
The teacher's indifferent attitude in class made Ye Chen realize that to truly change the bullying phenomenon on campus, he could not rely solely on personal resistance. He needed a more systematic and in-depth approach to address the issue. Thus, he decided to leverage his influence to initiate change from within the class.
Ye Chen began to actively communicate with his classmates, sharing his study insights and helping those who were struggling academically. His sincerity and kindness gradually touched the hearts of his peers, and the atmosphere in the class started to improve slowly. Some classmates who had previously looked down on Ye Chen began to seek his advice, and Ye Chen always answered patiently.
After Ye Chen's strong counterattack, the campus seemed to temporarily return to calm. The bullies no longer openly provoked others, and students began to reassess Ye Chen, who had once been seen as weak. However, Ye Chen knew that beneath the surface calm, undercurrents were still swirling.
Although Zhao Gang had been defeated by Ye Chen, he had not completely given up. He gathered a group of troublemakers from outside the school, planning to take revenge on Ye Chen after school. Somehow, this news reached Ye Chen's ears, and he realized that an inevitable confrontation was approaching.
As the school bell rang, students left the classroom one after another, but Ye Chen deliberately stayed behind. He quietly sat at his desk, waiting for the unwelcome guests who were about to arrive. Sure enough, Zhao Gang appeared at the classroom door with several burly troublemakers, their faces wearing malicious smiles.
"Ye Chen, do you think you're so tough? Today, I'm going to show you that everything you've done is in vain," Zhao Gang's voice was filled with resentment.
Ye Chen stood up; there was no fear in his eyes—only calmness and determination. "Zhao Gang, do you really want to end things between us here?"
Ye Chen knocked everyone down again. To resolve this once and for all, he planned to deal with Zhao Gang first. Stubborn and reckless, Zhao Gang had come looking for trouble again after being beaten so many times; it was clear he wouldn't learn until he faced serious consequences.
...
As night fell, the campus became quiet and dim. Ye Chen stealthily approached Zhao Gang, using his powers as a cultivator to place a small stone quietly beneath Zhao Gang's feet. When Zhao Gang inadvertently stepped on the stone, he lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground, pain shooting through his ankle.
Zhao Gang's followers hurried over to check, only to find that Zhao Gang's ankle had already swollen up.
This scene spread throughout the campus, and everyone said that Zhao Gang brought it upon himself, while Ye Chen's name once again became the center of discussion.
There was no evidence suggesting that Ye Chen had acted. Cultivators were indeed so reckless.
