Chapter 171: Chapter 170: Stunned

"Zhang Long, man, you finally arrived!"

The sight of this group's arrival nearly drove Liu Yuan to tears as he called out, his voice quivering.

"Zhang Long!"

"Zhang Long!"

The students who were initially leading also began to call out, their voices filled with sobs.

They had truly been beaten to pulp earlier.

Four or five dozen students, without any resistance at all.

This situation had left them feeling wronged.

From childhood to now, especially after they had succeeded in this school, when had they ever been treated like this?

"Hell! Did you guys really get beaten up?"

Seeing Liu Yuan and a few other leading students all beaten and sprawled on the ground, Zhang Long too was taken aback and exclaimed.

He was very well aware that despite not being the toughest hooligans of this school, Liu Yuan and his gang were quite formidable. A few dozen students served as no small force, and Liu Yuan was quite smart. How had they ended up in such a pathetic state?

His followers had been beaten, and it was naturally expected of him as the boss to stand up for them.

Zhang Long immediately raised his head to look at the two people who were still standing on the scene, clearly not from his side.

In the end, he fixed his eyes on the only male student.

"It was you who hit... you... you..." Zhang Long furiously started, but then could not get out another word. He looked at Lin Yun in shock, stammering.

"Yo... Yo... Yo... Are you Brother Lin Yun?" Quickly, Zhang Long asked fearfully.

His voice trembled.

This Zhang Long was one of the students who had witnessed Lin Yun's duel with Wang Jie at Yinghao Martial Arts Hall the previous day.

Similarly, he also joined Mountain Martial Arts Hall yesterday.

He was awestruck by Lin Yun's strength.

He hadn't expected that it was Lin Yun who had beaten Liu Yuan and his gang. He had just berated Lin Yun and was planning on confronting Lin Yun... This thought terrified him!

He had practiced martial arts since he was a child. Although he wasn't very good, he often interacted with such people, so he knew very well how formidable some people's abilities were.

Let's not talk about others, even Yinghao Martial Art Hall's former chief instructor, Wang Jie, could fight off more than twenty ordinary people at once. Even him, with his basic martial arts training but no substantial achievements, could easily deal with a dozen people.

But even such a formidable person like Wang Jie was no match for Lin Yun.

Lin Yun kicked Wang Jie, sending him flying seven or eight meters away...

That was seven or eight meters!

If he hadn't hit a wall, he definitely would've flown over ten meters!

Later, Lin Yun ruined Wang Jie's ability with another kick!

This development terrified him even more and caused him great apprehension!

Depriving someone of their martial abilities wasn't something that just anyone could do...

It was the stuff of legends!

Lin Yun seemed even more mysterious in his heart!

Liu Yuan and his group had offended Lin Yun?

And they had almost dragged him into their conflict?

No, he had already offended him.

Now, it was up to whether Lin Yun would forgive him or not.

Zhang Long felt both shocked and furious.

Liu Yuan was seeking his own death. But he really shouldn't have dragged him into it!

Even Wang Jie, whose abilities were terrifying, was defeated by Lin Yun, who then ruined his powers.

Picking a fight with him despite being a nobody, wasn't that just seeking death?

"What?"

"What's going on?"

"Zhang Long... is actually scared of Lin Yun?"

"Zhang Long is calling Lin Yun 'Brother'? Could it be that Zhang Long is Lin Yun's protégé?"

Seeing this scene, many people were startled, and couldn't help expressing their disbelief.

"Brother..."

Seeing this scene, Lin Duoer was a bit dazzled.

She had heard of Zhang Long and his group. She hadn't suspected that Liu Yuan's gang was under Zhang Long's command.

When Zhang Long and his group showed up, she felt a bit nervous.

Although, her brother's current strength was somewhat beyond her expectations, the strength of Zhang Long's gang was also rumored to be very strong.

But she had never imagined that such a scene would occur.

Her brother… had just come back... How did he know Zhang Long?

"You are?" Lin Yun looked at Zhang Long and asked indifferently.

"Eh——"

On hearing Lin Yun's words, many delinquent students lost their breath and almost collapsed on the ground.

What was going on?

Zhang Long was very scared of Lin Yun, and had respectfully called him 'Brother,' but Lin Yun didn't recognize him?

Flaunting one's power without making a show of things is the true definition of badass.

At that moment, Lin Yun became an impressive figure in the hearts of many delinquents at the school.

"Brother Yun, I had the good fortune to see you fight those coaches at Yinghao Martial Arts Hall yesterday. I even joined the Mountain Martial Arts Hall afterwards, and I saw you there too... ." Zhang Long hurriedly rambled on, undeterred by the fact that Lin Yun didn't recognize him.

His tone was extremely cautious.

"Oh, I remember you now." Lin Yun gave a slight nod.

Ever since he had begun training his Mental Strength, his memory had become increasingly sharp. His earlier question had only been asked subconsciously.

Upon hearing the reminder, he immediately recalled the scenes at Yinghao Martial Arts Hall and Mountain Martial Arts Hall the previous day.

Everything was as the other party had said.

"Brother Yun, you remember me!" But upon hearing Lin Yun say he remembered him, Zhang Long expressed his excitement.

In his eyes, Lin Yun was an esteemed figure.

Back then, he was merely a common face among the crowd. The fact that Lin Yun could remember him filled him with excitement.

Seeing this, many of the delinquents surrounding them were left speechless.

Are you serious?

Just by remembering him, Lin Yun managed to excite him this much?

Was this really the legendary Zhang Long of their school?

Or just who was Lin Yun right now... to command such respect from Zhang Long?

"Brother Yun, I was also there yesterday..." A boy standing next to Zhang Long quickly chimed in.

"Me too, me too..." Another boy rushed to add.

They were all people who had been with Zhang Long yesterday, and naturally, they had witnessed the fight between Lin Yun and Wang Jie. They all admired Lin Yun greatly.

"Is this the Lin Yun that boss talked about?"

"He doesn't seem too much older than us..."

Behind Zhang Long, several boys who had never seen Lin Yun before gasped in awe.

Although they hadn't met Lin Yun, Zhang Long had shared many unbelievable stories about him with them yesterday and today.

"The guy Liu Yuan and the others offended was Lin Yun... They were really asking for death... They even almost dragged us down with them..."

Some of them looked at Liu Yuan who lay on the floor with great resentment.

"Hmm? Are all these guys Liu Yuan's men?"

"There are forty to fifty students, all of them Liu Yuan's followers? Does this mean that Lin Yun took down all these guys by himself?"

Soon, people began to notice that everyone on the ground belonged to one and the same faction, causing their hearts to shudder with realization.

When they had initially arrived, they hadn't noticed whether the students on the floor belonged to one faction or not.

They had originally assumed that Liu Yuan's group had fought with another gang, resulting in members of both parties falling to the ground.

Only now did they realize that all the fallen students belonged to Liu Yuan's group.

Those who had initially doubted Lin Yun's abilities were entirely convinced by now. The notion of one person single-handedly taking down forty to fifty students was truly horrific.

"So, how do you guys plan on handling this?" Lin Yun nodded slightly, looking at the group and asked.

These people knew him and even seemed greatly bewildered in his presence.

It seemed like he wouldn't need to resort to violence this time.

"Brother Long..." On the ground, Liu Yuan trembled as he spoke.

Being a sharp boy, he quickly realized something was amiss.

"Brother Long, you don't have to be scared of him, what does it matter if he is powerful? My dad is the station chief. He's an outsider and dare harm so many students. I..." However, some people failed to grasp the severity of the situation. A boy struggled to get up from the ground and spoke wrathfully at Zhang Long.

This boy was one of the leaders of the student group, and his father's status had secured him a high standing among his peers.

"Whack!"

However, before he could finish his sentence, found himself slapped across the face.

The force behind the slap was none other than Zhang Long.

"Brother Long, you..."

This slap from Zhang Long was a bitter pill to swallow, leaving the boy in utter disbelief with tears welling up in his eyes.

Zhang Long indeed held a lot of influence over him.

Even though his father held a high position, he was still terrified of Zhang Long.

Being slapped by Zhang Long made him feel wronged.

He had just received a beating from an outsider, and now, he had been slapped by his own boss. This was just too unfair.

However, he didn't know that Zhang Long was absolutely livid.

This idiot couldn't read the room.

Did he actually think that his dad being the station chief made him badass?

Zhang Long had clearly seen how even a Police Chief was terrified of Lin Yun yesterday.

His dad being just a station chief really didn't seem to matter much, did it?

Could he be having any worse luck?

Wouldn't his dad give him a beating if he found out about this?

Zhang Long decided to slap him first on his father's behalf.
