Dragon Emperor, Martial God

Following Tu Gang’s swift action, the beer bottle cut through the air in a sharp arc, creating a ‘whoosh’ sound and smashing towards Lingyun head.

“Ah!” Ning Lingyu exclaimed, witnessing the incoming impact on her brother’s head. She turned anxious and panicked. Trying to break free from Cao Shanshan, she wanted to dash towards her brother.

Ling Yun can dodge that. Cao Shanshan thought, grabbing Ning Lingyu. Even Cao Shanshan was worried, as her beautiful face turned a little pale. Recalling Ling Yun’s punch on Gou Junfa, she had a feeling that Ling Yun could definitely dodge that.

Zhang Ling and Chai Hanlin shut their eyes in fear, not wanting to witness the unfolding tragedy.

Ling Yun remained rooted, staring straight into Tu Gang’s eyes, seemingly forgetting to dodge the attack.

“Shit! Ling Yun, are you insane? Quickly back off!” Tang Meng shouted anxiously, as Ling Yun still stood there.

When the bottle came near his head, Ling Yun evoked a mysterious smile. Although his head, shoulders and abdomen moved in three separate instances, it seemed like one quick movement.

The beer bottle came down close to Ling Yun’s ear, shoulders and lower abdomen. Going all the way down, it was a whisker away from Ling Yun.

Ling Yun looked straight into Tu Gang’s eyes and smiled. He waited for Tu Gang’s arm and body to lean forward after the powerful strike before making his move.

Since Ling Yun’s arm had remained in its natural position, when the bottle reached past his left hip, he gently stretched out his left hand, gripping the bottle firmly.

Going up to Tu Gang’s hand, he squeezed a nerve on Tu Gang’s right hand, causing Tu Gang to feel a sharp pain. With a swift movement, Ling Yun snatched over the beer bottle.

The rest of the people were confused. From their point of view, it was as if Tu Gang bowed down to pass the empty bottle to Ling Yun.

“He…” Unlike the rest, Cao Shanshan was not confused.

Just as Tu Gang’s beer bottle had gone near Ling Yun’s head, Cao Shanshan’s face had turned pale, as she thought that Ling Yun’s head would definitely get split open by the blow. In an act of worry, she had subconsciously taken three steps forward.

Yet, what Ling Yun did left Cao Shanshan speechless!

Ling Yun only moved his head when the bottle came near, followed by his shoulder as the bottle swept past him. Moving his body parts one by one, the strike soon lost its strength and momentum.

In order to do this, one needed to remain calm, have absolute confidence in himself and have nothing short of tons of courage. How had Ling Yun managed to pull this off?

If it was an ordinary man witnessing a bottle swinging towards his head, he would’ve used his arms to block or grab the bottle using his hands. He might also have jumped away in panic or retreated backward. Yet, Ling Yun was able to dodge the attack with one simple movement, without moving a single step.

The best part was Ling Yun’s amazing judgment. Not only had Ling Yun waited for Tu Gang to miss his strike, but he also timed his strike exactly when the bottle lost its strength and momentum. Ling Yun first waited for Tu Gang to fully extend his arm and just as the bottle could no longer go down any further, Ling Yun snatched the bottle over in one swift motion.

Although it seemed easy, the difficulty of this skill was tremendous, to say the least.

Can I really beat him? Cao Shanshan thought to herself, as her confidence took a hit for the first time.

In description, that scene might have seemed very long. In fact, it couldn’t be further from the truth. It all happened in lightning quick time, just within a couple of seconds.

Ling Yun held the bottle in his left hand. With lightning speed, he stretched out his right hand, grabbing Tu Gang by the neck from behind. As Tu Gang was unable to escape the hold, Ling Yun raised up his right hand and swung the beer bottle straight at Tu Gang’s head.

“Ah…” Tu Gang grimaced. Not only was he unable to escape, he was also incapable of comprehending what Ling Yun had pulled off moments earlier. Furthermore, his neck was being held by Ling Yun.

With the tables now turned, there was a weird feeling emanating from the scene. As Tu Gang witnessed the descending bottle coming straight for his head, he thought of the helplessness of his failed strike on Ling Yun. He could only pity himself at that point.

At that moment, Tu Gang’s center of gravity was on his right half of the body, looking as if Ling Yun was pressing his head and hitting him.

Extremely afraid, Tu Gang immediately raised his empty right hand to block the falling bottle.

*Pa!* the sound of a smashed bottle echoed.

*Ka cha!* the sound of broken bones followed!

Ling Yun had exerted about eighty percent of his strength. Since Tu Gang was a vicious guy, Ling Yun wanted to teach him a lesson.

Tu Gang had taken the strike with his arm. Even if his head wasn’t bleeding, his arm was definitely badly injured since this was Ling Yun’s strike with almost his full strength.

After having his arm smashed, Tu Gang shrieked in pain. Since his head drooped down naturally, it saved Ling Yun some effort. Still holding Tu Gang’s neck, Ling Yun yanked down his right hand while thrusting his knee up simultaneously.

*Peng!* Ling Yun’s knee came into contact with Tu Gang’s face.

Tu Gang suffered another blow. This time, blood spurted out of his nose!

Ling Yun retracted his knee. Pressing his right hand down even further, Tu Gang was forced straight to the ground.

*Bam!* Tu Gang laid flat on the ground.

“Ah…” Out of instinct, Tu Gang subconsciously placed both his hands on the floor for support.

Forgetting about his injured wrist, he shrieked in pain.

Ling Yun gently shifted his body sideways and lifting his right leg, he stepped on Tu Gang’s back. He acted as if nothing happened. His expression was extremely calm, with a smile hanging from his mouth and his gaze transparent and clear.

Crawling up, Zheng Feng and friends stared blankly at Ling Yun.

Even the six other guys that had come with Tu Gang were stunned.

Their leader, the almighty and invincible Tu Gang from Jiangnan School of Engineering, had been bashed up and stepped on in less than a minute. They were unable to comprehend what had just happened!

“Boss Tu Gang, today your birthday has been…” they muttered, not able to accept what happened.

As for Ling Yun’s group of friends, they were indescribably shocked to the core.

Although they didn’t clearly see what went on, the look on their faces shifted from fear to daze, then to shock. They had witnessed something that they didn’t think could have possibly happened.

“You’re too stubborn…” was what Tang Meng had been about to say, as he had been prepared to raise his hand to help block Ling Yun from the beer bottle earlier. However, he couldn’t believe that Ling Yun now had Tu Gang under his feet!

“Who’s next?” Ling Yun exclaimed, smiling amiably and staring at the other nine guys, while he trampled on the grimacing Tu Gang like a dead dog.

In Zhang Ling, Chai Hanlin and the rest’s eyes, Ling Yun holding the beer bottle in his left hand and stepping on Tu Gang with his right foot was a sign of might and strength. It was as if he had an aura of invincibility.

He looked like a god who had landed on Earth!

“Ling Yun is so cool!” Zhang Ling exclaimed while she opened her tightly closed eyes. Feeling Ling Yun’s overbearing aura, both her eyes turned into heart-shapes and her face turned into a big red apple as she clapped excitedly.

“Brother…” Ning Lingyu muttered, biting her lower lips gently. As she stared at Ling Yun’s unflinching and calm attitude, she became overwhelmed with a wave of pride and adoration that could not be put into words.

Who’s next? Tu Gang alone could single-handedly defeat four to five guys by himself. Yet, he had been being trampled on by Ling Yun. Who would dare to come up?

Knowing that the rest were too afraid to confront him, Ling Yun turned around to face Ning Lingyu, smiling and ushering them to come forward. Zhang Ling could not wait any longer as she dashed the fastest, quickly arriving in front of Ling Yun. She looked up at Ling Yun with adoration, gently touching his arm.

Crazy girl! Cao Shanshan thought to herself as she walked over slowly. Glancing at Zhang Ling and then at Ling Yun’s eyes, she felt a complicated and indescribable feeling.

“Tang Meng, go pick up the three pieces of trash and make them apologize!” Ling Yun commanded.

“Of course!” Tang Meng replied.

Tang Meng proceeded to walk over. Learning from Ling Yun, Tang Meng held Zheng Feng’s and Liu Xiaojun’s necks, dragging them over as if they were chickens.

Zhang Dong also proceeded to drag Li Jing over proudly.

“I’m sorry, we were wrong… We should’ve known not to disturb these pretty ladies…”

This time, even when Ling Yun and Tang Meng didn’t ask, Zheng Feng repeatedly apologized, bowing his head and bending his back, doing a begging motion.

*Pa! Pa!* Tang Meng gave Zheng Feng two tight slaps on the face, causing him to feel a little disorientated. Tang Meng shouted arrogantly, “Why are you apologizing to me? Apologise to the three girls instead!”

“Yes yes yes…” Zheng Feng said, hurrying towards the three girls, apologizing repeatedly.

“Enough, get the hell out my sight, now!” Ling Yun exclaimed, not caring if they really meant the apology.

Zheng Feng and his friends immediately scurried away and retreated back to the opposite side.

At this moment, one of the guys stepped out of the pack. This guy wore a pair of spectacles, seemed polite and cultured and had an air of gracefulness about him.

He looked at Ling Yun awkwardly and said, “My fellow student, you guys have finished fighting and we have also apologized. Is it time…”

Ling Yun lifted his head to look at him, smiled lovingly and said, “Go ahead, speak…”

Ling Yun was still stepping on Tu Gang with no intention of letting him speak.

This elegant guy was first surprised, then, looking around him, he suddenly said, “I am the vice chairman of this class, say what you have to say.”

Since Ling Yun felt Tu Gang struggling under his feet, he exerted more force, pushing Tu Gang back down. He smiled and replied, “Nothing much, let’s talk about compensation!”

“Yet again…”

Cao Shanshan and Zhang Ling uncontrollably looked at each other in the eye. The guys on the opposite side were however extremely confused.

Compensation? The vice chairman was momentarily shocked. What’s happening today, encountering such a person… We were beaten up so badly, but you’re still looking for compensation? He thought to himself.

“My fellow student, about that… We have already apologized…” the vice chairman replied, in shock at the audacious request.

Ling Yun smiled faintly, replying softly, “If apologizing worked, then why fight?”

Ling Yun’s face changed suddenly. With eyes full of fury, he barked, “Firstly, you guys bullied my sister for nothing, spoiling our mood to eat. Then, you delayed us from going back to school. Do you know how much trouble you caused us?”

“If one of us is scarred by your intimidation and it causes us to not be able to do our finals properly, do you know much that will cost?”

Since this was the first time the vice chairman had seen Ling Yun’s angry face, he was petrified. Forcing out a smile, he said, “We were wrong… How much compensation is needed?”

An ugly forced smile slowly appeared on his face.
