The young man who entered saw Chen Whirlwind and bowed, saying, "Young Master, did you call for me?"
Chen Whirlwind nodded, "Haozi, go bring Scarface to me."
The young man named Haozi nodded, "Please wait a moment, Young Master." He then turned and left. About half an hour later, there was another knock at the door.
"Come in."
At this time, another youth entered from outside, around seventeen or eighteen years old. His attire was quite refined, but the most striking feature was the scar on his face, which ran directly from below his right eye down to his jaw—a Greatsword scar.
After entering and seeing the people at the table, the youth cupped his fists towards Chen Whirlwind and Chen Heng, saying, "Did you call for me, Young Master?"
Chen Whirlwind looked at the youth who had just entered. "Scarface, I brought you here today to help my brother take revenge." He then pointed to Dong Ning sitting beside him.
The youth named Scarface cupped his fists again towards Chen Whirlwind, "Please give your orders, Young Master."
Chen Whirlwind described the appearances of Liu Guanfeng and his three companions to Scarface and said, "You go out later. If you run into them, handle it as you see fit—whether it's an arm or a leg, it's up to you. If you do well, I won't treat you poorly."
"Young Master, you're too kind. It's my fortune to work for you. I'll arrange it right away; just wait for good news," Scarface replied before heading out.
"Please wait a moment." Dong Ning stood up at this time.
Scarface halted and asked, "What else do you need, Young Master?"
Dong Ning took a gold coin from his pocket and placed it on the table. "Take this money to buy drinks for the Brothers. If things go well, I will reward you further."
Scarface did not take the money but looked at Chen Whirlwind beside him. Chen Whirlwind nodded, "If Young Master Dong says you should take it, then you should."
"Thank you, Young Master Dong." After saying this, Scarface picked up the money from the table and turned to leave the room.
Dong Ning sat back in his chair and asked Chen Whirlwind, "Brother Chen, how strong is that Scarface? I heard that those around Liu Guanfeng are all here for the Academy Competition."
Chen Whirlwind laughed heartily, "What does it matter if they are here for the Academy Competition? At most, they are just Apprentice Knights. But that Scarface just now has the strength of a top-tier Junior Knight. Just wait and see the show unfold, Dong Ning."
Upon hearing that Scarface was a top-tier Junior Knight, Dong Ning immediately raised his glass. "I, Dong Ning, thank you in advance, brother. If you ever need anything from your Younger Brother, just let me know."
Chen Whirlwind laughed again and raised his glass. "Well said! Let's toast!"
...
Liu Guanfeng and his companions rested until after three o'clock before Copper Bull and Iron Bull finally recovered. Bao Rui had also returned from outside long ago. Seeing that everyone was ready, Liu Guanfeng led the three of them out of the inn.
As they stepped out of the inn, Liu Guanfeng sensed that someone seemed to be watching them. However, he did not pay it any mind and continued to stroll through the streets with Bao Rui and the others.
The big city was indeed different. As they walked, Liu Guanfeng sighed; although Rain City was bustling, it paled in comparison to the capital. The buildings on both sides and the crowds passing by were telling—various restaurants, tea houses, weapon shops, and accessory stores were all present, and their scale was much larger than those in Rain City.
Moreover, there were all kinds of food stalls lining the streets, making Copper Bull and his brother swallow repeatedly in anticipation. Eventually, Liu Guanfeng led Bao Rui and the others to a small stall where they sat down and ordered several snacks. As soon as Copper Bull and Iron Bull saw food, they perked up and began to eat heartily.
I really don't know if these two brothers are reincarnated hungry ghosts or what, but they managed to eat through all twenty types of snacks at the stall. After finishing, the two brothers wiped their mouths.
"Third Brother, I didn't expect the snacks here to be so delicious. How about we take some back for a late-night snack?" Iron Bull proposed a suggestion that both brothers agreed with.
Liu Guanfeng laughed and scolded, "You two silly bulls only know how to eat. Why are you in such a hurry? I haven't said we should go back right now. We still have to stroll around for a bit longer. If we see more tasty food, I'll get some for you two."
Upon hearing Liu Guanfeng's promise, Copper Bull and Iron Bull jumped up in excitement. However, Iron Bull was so overly excited that he accidentally knocked over a long bench behind him.
About a meter behind Iron Bull stood a few fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys, and the bench fell right at their feet, startling them into exclaiming, "Oh my!" Fortunately, it didn't hit any of them.
Seeing that someone almost got hit, Liu Guanfeng immediately stood up and approached the group of boys.
"Sorry, young brothers. My companion didn't mean it; I sincerely apologize." After saying this, Liu Guanfeng picked up the fallen bench and set it back in place. He thought the matter was settled, but then he noticed that the boys quickly surrounded him and his companions.
A boy with a scar on his face stepped forward. "Is saying sorry enough? He just scared us."
Hearing this, Liu Guanfeng felt a surge of anger but suppressed it. He turned to the scarred boy and said, "Brother, since you say an apology isn't enough, what do you think we need to do for you all to let us go?"
Seeing Liu Guanfeng back down, the Scarred Boy laughed heartily. "Letting you go is easy; just bow down and admit your mistake to us brothers, and then break that kid's leg." He pointed at Iron Bull as he spoke.
This crossed Liu Guanfeng's bottom line. He could accept being wronged himself but would never allow his brother to suffer. This was also why after defeating Ma Sanbao in the Arena, Liu Guanfeng had said those words.
When Liu Guanfeng heard that they wanted to break Iron Bull's leg, his expression darkened immediately. At that moment, he fully understood that these people were looking for trouble. The idea of downplaying the situation vanished completely from his mind.
Liu Guanfeng raised his head to look at the Scarred Boy in front of him and said, "What if I say no?"
"No? Then I'll personally break the legs of all four of you," the Scarred Boy continued with a half-smile.
Liu Guanfeng really didn't want to say anything more to someone like this, as it would be useless. Seizing the opportunity, Liu Guanfeng stepped forward and threw a punch straight at the other person's head. The Scarred Boy was taken aback; he never expected that someone who had just been pretending to be weak would suddenly take action.
The Scarred Boy blocked Liu Guanfeng's punch with his left fist and then aimed a right punch directly at Liu Guanfeng's face, saying, "You dare to make a move."
Liu Guanfeng ignored the Scarred Boy and ducked his head to evade the punch. He then thrust his head forward, knocking the Scarred Boy back several steps.
As soon as the onlookers saw a fight breaking out, they quickly cleared a space. At this moment, Bao Rui, Copper Bull, and Iron Bull noticed that Liu Guanfeng, who had just been talking calmly, suddenly became aggressive. The three reacted quickly and charged at several nearby youths.
Moreover, Bao Rui and his companions had a clear goal: each targeted one person to attack fiercely while ignoring any retaliation from others. They continued until one opponent was knocked down and unable to get up before moving on to the next. The three maximized the effects of Iron Skin Soup; no matter how others attacked them, they focused solely on the person in front of them.
Before long, Copper Bull and Iron Bull had turned their first opponent's face into a bloody mess, leaving him on the ground. They began to switch to attacking their second target.
Meanwhile, as Liu Guanfeng's head pushed the Scarred Boy back, he took a few quick steps forward and jumped up to deliver a flying kick to the Scarred Boy's chest. The Scarred Boy crossed his arms in front of his chest to brace for Liu Guanfeng's kick but was still knocked back two steps before falling to the ground. After hitting the ground, he rolled backward and crouched down, looking at Liu Guanfeng.
"Kid, I didn't expect you actually have some skills."
After saying this, the crouching Scarred Boy lunged forward and swung an arm toward Liu Guanfeng's temple with a punch. Liu Guanfeng quickly dodged back to avoid it. However, a white scratch appeared on Liu Guanfeng's forehead. He hurriedly jumped back and touched his forehead.
"Junior Knight?" Liu Guanfeng was somewhat surprised; he didn't expect that such a small-time thug would also be a Junior Knight.
"Ha ha, now you know fear? It's too late. If I had known this earlier, I wouldn't have acted like this. If you leave one leg behind, I might just let you go," Scarred Boy laughed heartily.
Liu Guanfeng shook his head, "Not to the point of fear, just surprised. Come on, let's have a second round."
"Since you want to seek death, don't blame me," Scarred Boy said as he threw a punch straight at Liu Guanfeng's chest. Knowing that Scarred Boy was a Junior Knight, Liu Guanfeng no longer hid his strength and directly released his Fire Element Fighting Qi into his hands.
Liu Guanfeng used his left hand to block the boy's punch. When their fists collided, Scarred Boy was shocked because he felt the scorching heat from Liu Guanfeng's punch. He thought to himself: I didn't expect this kid to also be a Junior Knight; it seems his strength is not weak, and his attributes happen to counter mine. It looks like this will be a tough battle.
Scarred Boy swung his left fist towards Liu Guanfeng's head, while Liu Guanfeng raised his right arm in a fist to block it above his head. After their fists met, Liu Guanfeng exerted force with both arms to push Scarred Boy's fists away. Then Liu Guanfeng noticed that Scarred Boy had left his center wide open; he pushed off the ground and jumped, aiming a kick at Scarred Boy's chest. Scarred Boy quickly brought his hands together to grab Liu Guanfeng's ankle.
When Liu Guanfeng felt the pain from his ankle being grabbed, he tried to pull it down forcefully. However, Scarred Boy held on tightly, and Liu Guanfeng's ankle did not break free from the boy's grip. With Scarred Boy's strength, Liu Guanfeng remained suspended in mid-air. Using his left foot as an axis while in Scarred Boy's grasp, Liu Guanfeng swung his right leg horizontally towards Scarred Boy's head.
Scarred Boy did not expect Liu Guanfeng to react so quickly and was hit in the head by Liu Guanfeng's kick. The boy winced in pain and loosened his grip, causing his entire body to be kicked sideways and fall about a meter away.
Liu Guanfeng did not give his opponent a chance to get up; he charged forward and mounted Scarred Boy. He landed a punch directly on the boy's left eye and another on his right eye. By this time, Liu Guanfeng had already returned the Fire Attribute Fighting Qi back into the Dragon Pearl, so these two punches were just ordinary attacks. If these punches had included the Fighting Qi attribute attack, Scarred Boy's eyes would have been ruined.
Liu Guanfeng continued to throw punches left and right until he knocked Scarred Boy unconscious.
At this moment, among the few boys fighting with Bao Rui, only two were still standing; the rest of the six people were either knocked out or lying on the ground.
Just then, a commotion came from afar. Someone shouted loudly, "Get up! Who is fighting ahead? Don't you want to live? Move aside; the Patrol Team is coming!"
