Chapter 17: Do what a brother should do (Please read on, please vote!)
The noisy stadium fell silent instantly; you could hear a pin drop. No one would have thought that Wei Peng could actually defeat Chen Yunsheng, even if his playing style wasn't exactly aesthetically pleasing.

But the next moment.

"Wei Peng! Awesome!"

"Awesome..."

It's unclear who started it, but suddenly a chorus of cheers erupted in the stadium as everyone chanted the victor's name.

At this moment, all eyes were focused on that staggering figure.

"I...I...I won?"

Wei Peng stared blankly at Chen Yunsheng, who was lying on the ground, and only after hearing his name being called did his stagnant thoughts slowly begin to function again.

"hu~hu~"

He gasped for breath, barely managing to steady himself by supporting himself on his knees. He looked around at the noisy crowd, the cacophony of voices, but he couldn't find the girl who haunted his dreams.

Should we give up?

Wei Peng murmured to himself, feeling a sudden surge of grievance welling up inside him for no apparent reason.

hum~
A buzzing sound filled his head. After the adrenaline subsided, intense pain and fatigue immediately followed, leaving him somewhat overwhelmed. He became dazed and dizzy.

"It's time to give up."

Wei Peng lost his footing and was about to fall to the ground when he instinctively closed his eyes.

After a while~
The expected pain did not occur. Instead, a pair of strong arms caught him. However, the mixture of blood and sweat obscured his vision, and he could no longer see who it was. He only felt a pair of cold little hands on his wrists, followed by a familiar and all-too-familiar fragrance.

"How about it?"

"Heave-heave-heave-, it's nothing serious, just... just temporary shock."

Qi Shiyu felt Wei Peng's weak pulse, and her already red eyes welled up with tears again.

"Phew~" Shen Bailian's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and he let out a long breath.

He never expected Wei Peng to choose such a reckless fighting style, but looking at Qi Shiyu's expression, he couldn't help but exclaim, "It's not a loss."

"We need to get Apeng to the school hospital right away, otherwise he'll bleed too much..."

"Can you do it alone?"

Qi Shiyu was taken aback for a moment, then quickly nodded. She was also a martial arts student in reserve. Although her grades were relatively poor, she could easily carry a high school student. "And what about you?"

"I?"

Shen Bailian slowly stood up, all the worry in his eyes disappearing, replaced by a ruthless glint. Since someone wants to die, then he'll grant his wish!
"I want to do what a brother should do."

"Then you pay attention to safety."

Qi Shiyu wasn't stupid; she could sense the raging anger beneath the boy's calm tone. She bent down, picked up the nearly unconscious Wei Peng, took one last look at his retreating figure, and then walked away...

"It's over, it's over..."

"Why are you leaving? Shen Bailian is Wei Peng's good brother. How can we just watch our good brother be bullied by that perennial runner-up? Let's stay a little longer."

"Keep your voice down, don't let Li Tianxing hear you. Besides, as far as I know, Shen Bailian's punching power test last week was only 489kg, which is far inferior to even Li Feng, let alone Li Tianxing."

"Waiting a little longer won't hurt..."

Some high school students prepared to go home and practice their boxing after seeing the battle end, while others decided to stay a little longer after seeing Shen Bailian.

……

"Drag that piece of trash into the infirmary."

Li Tianxing glared hatefully at Shen Bailian on the stage, his facial muscles twitching slightly as he gritted his teeth and spoke.

It's that "perennial runner-up" again; every time people mention him, it's like reopening old wounds.

"Sigh, looks like I'll have to wait for another opportunity."

Li Feng sighed helplessly. He didn't want to either, but Li Tianxing was on the verge of exploding with rage, and he didn't want to provoke him. So he had no choice but to walk towards the arena.

He originally intended to drag Chen Yunsheng down the steps, because he couldn't bear the embarrassment.

However. "Hmm?"

Li Feng tugged twice, but couldn't budge him. It was as if someone was playing tug-of-war with him. Chen Yunsheng's unconscious groans of pain echoed in the air.

"What? You don't want it anymore?"

Shen Bailian's lips curled up slightly. He grabbed Chen Yunsheng's ankle with one hand and pushed Qingyu in his other hand forward.

"Shen Bailian, you—" Li Feng couldn't help but shout angrily upon hearing that familiar voice, but halfway through his sentence, upon seeing the gleaming blue feather, his venomous pupils shone with a merciless light, "You're courting death."

"Hey, Li Tianxing." Shen Bailian ignored him, stood up, called out to Li Tianxing who was turning to leave, raised the green feather in his hand, a cold smile on his face, and said loudly, "Don't you want it anymore?"

"what do you want?"

"Defeat me, and the stuff is yours!"

Shen Bailian spoke in a clear, deliberate voice, his fighting spirit undisguised in his words.

"Heh~, hahaha..."

Li Tianxing couldn't help but laugh out loud. This laughter was both the joy of regaining Qingyu and the contempt for ants. He admitted that Shen Bailian's progress was indeed fast, but how dare he, how dare he say such a thing.

His face darkened. These Tom, Dick, and Harry dared to provoke him. He decided to take this opportunity to establish his authority and said, "Madman, we're in a hurry."

"okay."

Upon hearing this, Li Feng chuckled, licked his lips, and a bloodthirsty glint appeared in his eyes. After placing Chen Yunsheng on the ground, he slightly pushed off with his arms and leaped more than two meters into the air, landing on the arena.

boom!
Like a depth charge dropped into a calm lake, the scene caused an uproar among the high school students who hadn't yet left the gymnasium.

"It's Li Feng!"

"Has Shen Bailian lost his mind? Or has he been flattered too much and gotten arrogant? How dare he provoke Li Tianxing now!"

Who is Li Feng?

Some first-year high school students don't know much about the upperclassmen, so they quickly look at the upperclassmen next to them.

A helpful senior student explained, "Li Feng, nicknamed 'Madman,' is an extremely ruthless fighter. It's said that he once spent a month alone in the wilderness. The scar on his face was left by the F-level ferocious beast, the Stone Armored Rhinoceros. His punching power reached a terrifying 809kg!"

"What? 809! It survived the attack of the armored rhinoceros?"

The evolved beasts of the wilderness are called ferocious beasts, and their strength, from low to high, is as follows: Unranked (low-class), F-rank (ordinary), E-rank (misfortune), D-rank (overlord), C-rank (natural disaster), B-rank (lord), A-rank (demigod), and S-rank (myth).

Even the weakest F-class has a strength of several tons, which is extremely terrifying.

"That's why his nickname is 'Madman.' Shen Bailian is probably..."

"Since the boss said we're in a hurry, then I'll..."

boom!
As soon as Li Feng finished speaking, his figure shot out like a sharp arrow.

"I'll defeat you in one move!"

His Iron Sand Palm technique had reached an extremely high level; his hands were like an incredibly crude hammer, or like black lightning, causing the air to vibrate violently, the airflow to surge, and a mournful sound to be heard.

"The speed is so slow?"

Shen Bailian frowned slightly as he watched Li Feng pounce towards him, because the opponent's speed seemed like that of a tortoise in his field of vision. He tossed the green feather in his hand upwards, freeing his hands.

"Oh no, is Senior Shen scared out of his wits? Why isn't he moving at all?"

Many people held their breath and closed their eyes slightly, unable to bear the sight of the bloodshed.

"As expected, he's all show and no substance."

Looking at the motionless Shen Bailian, Li Feng thought to himself with disdain. How could this hothouse flower compare to him, who often spent his time training in the wilderness?
The muscles in his arms were bulging, and his strength had increased even more. He was determined to knock his opponent out of bed with one punch, leaving him bedridden for more than half a month.

Click!
A crisp sound echoed throughout the silent gymnasium, and the high school students stared wide-eyed, their chests heaving, looking at the scene before them in disbelief.

"You know my... what, what?"

"How can this be!!!"
