Martial Arts Master in the City

Chapter 251: Beating Someone Without Lifting a Finger


"Fuck off, hand over the money. If you don't cough up the cash today, I'll fucking beat you until even your own mother won't recognize you!" Near an alleyway close to Minghai Academy, three or four street punks with dyed yellow hair were punching and kicking a kid in a Minghai Academy uniform. The boy shielded his head with his hands and remained silent.

"Fuck off, you think you can just shut up and it's all over?" The punk who just spoke grabbed the boy's hair. The boy's scalp tingled numbly as his head was jerked upwards by the force of the thug's grip. If any student from Minghai Academy's class one were there, they would surely recognize him—he was the new transfer student, Tang Xuewen!

When Tang Xuewen had left the day before, he had run into a few street punks who robbed him of the fifty-odd bucks in his pocket. He thought that would be the end of it, but who could have expected that just this morning upon passing through the same alley, he'd run into them again? These people grabbed Tang Xuewen and demanded money right away, even upping the ante to five hundred this time!

Tang Xuewen did have money on him, but only a little over a hundred bucks, which was meant for his lunch. Although he attended Minghai Academy, his family was far from rich.

Tang Xuewen wasn't stupid. Usually quite persistent, he knew these street punks weren't ordinary students. If he wanted an apology from them, he would have to be tougher, stronger than them. But how could a frail student like Tang Xuewen ever fight off street ruffians? Thus, he had no choice but to acquiesce, handing over the hundred yuan. But those insatiable bastards weren't satisfied; they frisked him and took another few tens of yuan of his money. After robbing him blind, to his surprise, they weren't done yet. They continued beating him, demanding even more money!

Tang Xuewen was truly penniless now!

"Where's the money? I'm fucking asking you where's the money?"

Tang Xuewen spoke in a weak voice, "It's gone, I've got no more money in my pockets!"

"No money? Bullshit! You think you can fool me? You attend Minghai Academy and you have no money? I'm telling you, if you don't give up the money today, I'll beat you till you're crippled!" The punks kept punching and kicking Tang Xuewen as they spoke.

Tang Xuewen felt countless blows raining down on him, and was almost numb to the pain. At that moment, he desperately wished he could become powerful and make those who bullied him beg for mercy.

"I... I will take revenge!" Tang Xuewen grunted angrily amidst the beating.

"Ha, did you hear that? This guy is thinking about revenge. Let's beat him to paralysis today and see if he still dares think about revenge. Hit him hard for me, beat the crap out of him!"

The savage voice echoed from the alley, and although many people wanted to peek, they didn't dare approach—after all, these were street punks, capable of anything!

"Stop!" A loud voice came from the mouth of the alley!

Hearing that voice, the street punks stopped in surprise, and almost simultaneously looked at the speaker—a figure around 1.78 meters tall, rather thin, with bangs slightly covering his eyebrows, and notably a pair of clear, bright eyes.

"Kid, if you don't want to die, you better get lost, far away. Otherwise, I'll let you die right here!" One of the thugs uttered what he thought was a very grave warning.

"No way, you guys can't really want to kill someone, right? I was just passing by and saw there was a fight, so I came to have a look!" The boy showed a trace of timidity on his face.

Seeing the fearful expression on the boy's face, the thugs burst out laughing and said, "You've got such small guts and you still dare to meddle? You must be tired of living, come here!"

Hearing the thug's words, the boy's face was stricken with fear as he said, "What... what do you want me to come over there for? I won't get involved, just don't hit me!"

"Ha, I won't hit you, just be obedient and we promise not to hurt you," said the thug, approaching the boy.

As the boy saw the thug approaching, fear was written all over his face, but there was a glint of brilliance in his eyes that ordinary people couldn't perceive.

"Yeah, whatever you say goes, I'll definitely do as I'm told, please just don't hit me!"

The thug snickered, and as he got close, he immediately grabbed the boy's arm. The boy was taken aback when the thug seized his arm, and then tried to struggle. But after a couple of tugs, the thug yanked hard, and the boy stumbled towards Tang Xuewen, nearly falling to the ground.

The thug was shocked to see that a mere tug had almost sent the boy crashing to the ground. He felt a burst of joy, thinking his strength was increasing!

Tang Xuewen looked up at the boy who seemed to want to help but was also scared. Raising his head, he got a fright because this staggering figure was none other than Ye Xiao, his first adversary at Minghai Academy!

Tang Xuewen looked at Ye Xiao in surprise, and Ye Xiao, lowering his head, peered back at Tang Xuewen, feigning weakness in his gaze but shooting him a significant look.

Tang Xuewen knew full well what Ye Xiao was capable of—he had witnessed Ye Xiao's fight with Li Dachong in the hallways just the day before. He had had a taste of Ye Xiao's fearsomeness firsthand!

"Fuck off, there's always someone looking for trouble!" The man addressing Ye Xiao said, "You know what I want to say to you right now?"

Ye Xiao immediately looked at the thug with a deliberately perplexed face and said, "Big bro, just say what you want to say. Rest assured, whatever you say, that's what it will be!"

"You have some smarts." The thug said, "We've run out of money. Hand over all the cash you have on you!"

"Ah?" Ye Xiao pretended to be shocked as he looked at the thug and said, "You want to rob me? It's broad daylight right now. Aren't you afraid of the police?"

"Police? Haha, I could kill you right here, and who would know?" The thug pointed at Tang Xuewen and said, "If you don't want to end up like this guy, hurry up and give me the money."

Ye Xiao glanced at Tang Xuewen, and just then, because Tang Xuewen looked up at Ye Xiao, he was slapped by another thug!

Ye Xiao then spoke with a mocking tone, "Some people are really persistent when they're in front of the meek, but in front of someone stronger, they suddenly turn into cowards!"

When Tang Xuewen heard Ye Xiao's words, he knew Ye Xiao was talking about him. Although he knew it, he was helpless and could only keep his head down, because looking up meant getting hit!

Those thugs, hearing Ye Xiao's taunting words, immediately said, "What's that supposed to mean? Are you looking for a beating?"

Ye Xiao replied, "Of course not. It's just that I don't have any money to give you, but I'm also afraid that you'll hit me!"

"No money?" The thug laughed out loud, exclaiming, "Bullshit, you trying to fuck with us? Beat him up!"

The four thugs immediately surrounded Ye Xiao, and started to throw punches and kicks at him!

When Ye Xiao saw these people coming at him, the fear on his face vanished in an instant. However, he had no intention of fighting back, because yesterday, Li Xiaojing had said something he found very useful: Violence can't solve problems, it only invites more trouble!

So, Ye Xiao didn't fight back, but did that mean he couldn't teach someone a lesson?

Just then, one of the thugs threw a punch at Ye Xiao's face, fierce and fast, and at the same moment, Ye Xiao felt another punch coming at the back of his head from behind. These thugs sure knew some dirty tricks!

Ye Xiao's head dodged slightly, and suddenly, the two fast punches collided with each other. Both men had put their full force into their punches and hitting each other's fists instead, resulting in excruciating pain.

"Ouch…"

The two thugs immediately withdrew their fists and glared at each other!

"Fuck, you were supposed to hit him, why the hell did you hit me? Got your eyes in your pants?"

"Fuck, it was obviously you who hit me, and you dare curse at me?"

The other two thugs, on the other hand, got smart for a moment and each aimed a kick at Ye Xiao's shins, wanting to knock him down. But again, Ye Xiao evaded at the critical moment, and their shins collided with each other, causing intense pain!

The thugs tried to beat Ye Xiao with punches and kicks, fiercely relentless, but Ye Xiao did not get hit once. However, the four thugs ended up battering their own comrades to a pulp!

At this point, the thugs were truly perplexed as to what was going on. They were aiming for this young man, but with every punch and kick, it was their own mates who got hit. Could this guy be using some kind of sorcery?

"Heh, come on, keep hitting me, or else I might have to fight back!" Ye Xiao, hands in his pockets, was clearly telling everyone he hadn't laid a finger on them so far, and indeed, the injuries they bore were inflicted by their own comrades!

"Motherfucker, what have you done to us?" One thug shouted at Ye Xiao!

Hearing that guy cursing at him again, Ye Xiao immediately walked towards the thug!

"You… what do you want to do?" Seeing Ye Xiao approaching, the thug didn't know why, but a very frightening feeling surged within him, as if Ye Xiao was some kind of demon!

Ye Xiao said, "I hate when people swear at me, especially when they involve my family without cause. So, I need to teach you a lesson!"

"Ah?" Hearing that Ye Xiao was going to discipline him, the thug's face turned pale. Just now, without Ye Xiao even lifting a hand, they were already hurt all over; now that he was about to take action, they feared what would happen...

With that thought, all four thugs yelled, "Mommy!" and ran out of the alley!
