When I first entered high school, the system insisted that I was destined to be an emperor in my lat

"How dare you lay a hand on Hai Shao!"

Seeing that Hai Wuyai had actually been thwarted, Jin Liuli and Lei Jie exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of shock in each other's eyes.

But as prodigies on the provincial capital's list of geniuses, they naturally wouldn't tolerate these country bumpkins running wild!

"You're asking for it!"

Lei Jie roared, his muscles bulging instantly, like a raging bear, as he swung his fists at Jiang Feng's head.

Almost simultaneously, a sinister glint flashed in Jin Liuli's eyes, and with a flick of his fingers, several incomparably sharp golden energies shot straight for Jiang Feng's throat!

Two Grandmasters of the Fifth Rank unleashed their deadly attacks!

"Bullying my brother? Who do you think you are!"

Shen Weilan let out a delicate shout, and a fiery red longsword burning with raging flames appeared in her hand.

With a flick of her wrist, the girl unleashed a burst of true energy from the sword, resembling a fire phoenix, instantly transforming it into an impenetrable fire lotus sword shield that forcefully blocked all the protective energy!

"What powerful fire-type true energy!"

Jin Liuli felt the scorching heat rushing towards her and was horrified.

This girl looks no more than seventeen or eighteen years old, yet she possesses such terrifying strength?!

"Clang!"

On the other side, a clear and melodious sword cry rang out.

Li Changsheng gripped a blue longsword with one hand.

No one saw how he drew his sword; it was as if only a gentle breeze had passed by!

"Tick-tock".

A bead of cold sweat slid down Lei Jie's forehead.

His fist froze in mid-air.

Because the cyan sword blade radiating a cold, sharp light in Li Changsheng's hand had somehow stopped at his throat!

"Wow...what a fast sword!"

Lei Jie swallowed hard, his heart filled with utter horror.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Xingye, Lin Xing, Ling Yu and the others did not waste any words. They all drew their weapons, their true energy surging, and instantly formed an encirclement, surrounding Hai Wuyai and the other two in the center.

Tensions are high, and a major battle is imminent!

On the periphery, Feng Changge watched this scene, her beautiful eyes sparkling with admiration.

That's so cool!

But Ye Junlin's expression was extremely unpleasant!

"A bunch of idiots!"

"This is Jiangnan City; the Hai family's resources are beyond our imagination!"

"To offend them just to save a moment's anger is utterly foolish."

"Let's leave and find somewhere else to stay."

After saying that, Ye Junlin turned and left without hesitation.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Feng Changge's eyes. Ever since Ye Junlin lost to Jiang Feng, he had lost the arrogant and domineering attitude he once had.

She gritted her teeth and followed.

Bai Zihuang followed Ye Junlin silently.

Jiang Feng walked up to the boy in black, flicked his finger, and a healing pill emitting a strong medicinal fragrance fell into the boy's mouth.

The boy in black was taken aback. The pill melted instantly upon entering his mouth, turning into a gentle, warm current that flowed into his body.

In just over ten seconds, his complexion returned to normal, and he managed to stand up from the pool, barely managing to stay upright.

"I am deeply grateful!"

"My name is Peng Zhe, and I owe you my life today!"

The young man in black wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and bowed to Jiang Feng with clasped hands.

Jiang Feng nodded slightly, then turned around and looked at Hai Wuyai and the other two.

His eyes were calm, yet they carried a condescending disdain and mockery.

"Let's go."

Upon hearing her brother's words, Shen Weilan immediately sheathed her sword and obediently returned to his side.

Li Changsheng also flipped his wrist, and the green sword returned to its sheath.

"Pooh!"

Before leaving, Xiao Xingye spat on the ground in disgust and loudly mocked, "What a load of crap, a five-star hotel! It reeks of scum!"

"Even if you invited me to stay in a sedan chair carried by eight men, I wouldn't deign to stay!"

"Guys, let's get out of here!"

After saying that, the group turned and left in a grand manner, leaving behind only Hai Wuyai and his two companions with livid faces.

"Peng Zhe! Are you alright?!"

The boy in black's companions rushed over.

Peng Zhe shook his head, staring at Jiang Feng's departing figure, his fists clenched.

He must repay this favor!

……

Half an hour later.

On the bustling commercial street of Jiangnan City, Jiang Feng and his companions' expressions gradually turned cold.

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry everyone!"

Even if you offer ten times the price, we still cannot accommodate you.

The lobby manager of a luxury hotel was sweating profusely, bent over, and pale-faced, repeatedly apologizing.

"Please don't make things difficult for me, everyone."

"You've offended Young Master Hai. The Hai family has already declared that no hotel in the city will dare to let you stay; they'll all have to close tomorrow!"

Enraged, Xiao Xingye kicked over the nearby trash can.

"Damn it! These bastards, they're playing dirty tricks!"

Jiang Feng merely frowned slightly, his tone remaining calm: "It's alright, let's find another hotel."

The group then ran for several more hours.

The second company refused.

The third company refused.

The fourth one, the fifth one...

Without exception, upon seeing Jiang Feng and the others' faces, they all acted as if they had seen a plague god, refusing to check in no matter what.

The Hai family's influence in Jiangnan City has become so vast!

With just one sentence, they could leave no place for them in Jiangnan City!

The repeated setbacks finally made even the usually good-tempered Li Changsheng angry.

"Damn it!"

"Using this trick is absolutely disgusting!"

Lin Xing gripped his spear even tighter, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Beep beep!"

Just when everyone was at a loss.

A black SUV pulled up beside them.

The car window rolled down, revealing Peng Zhe's honest and simple face.

"Brother Jiang Feng! Get in the car quickly!"

He waved his hand vigorously, "I know a place where I'll never have to endure the Hai family's wrath!"

Jiang Feng did not hesitate and immediately led everyone into the car.

The SUV roared and sped away from the bustling city center, heading towards the suburbs.

Inside the car, Peng Zhe drove while saying somewhat apologetically, "Brother Jiang Feng, we really owe you a lot today."

"My rash action today...is actually due to some grudge against the Hai family!"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the car looked at him.

"Do you have a grudge against the Hai family?"

Xiao Xingye asked curiously.

"Um!"

"I'm actually a local from Jiangnan City, but I went to high school in Jiangbei..."

At this point, Peng Zhe's eyes dimmed slightly, and he said through gritted teeth, "As for why I left my hometown..."

"It's because my family used to run a medicinal herb business in Jiangnan City, but the Hai family forcibly suppressed and swallowed it up, leaving us ruined and dead!"

"The Hai family in Jiangnan City is like a venomous snake that devours people without spitting out the bones!"

"I'll do it sooner or later..."

He took a deep breath and forced a smile, "But don't worry, the hotel we're going to now is owned by my aunt."

"Although it's a bit remote, it's absolutely safe, so please feel free to check in!"

After half an hour.

The SUV stopped in front of a hotel that looked rather old.

Although business was slow, the signboard was kept spotless.

Yingjia Hotel

The group pushed open the door and entered the hotel lobby.

"Little Peng Zhe?!"

"You've come back to take the college entrance exam?"

Hearing the commotion, a woman who looked to be in her early thirties came out from behind the front desk.

She had short, brown hair, wore a loose white shirt and fitted jeans, which perfectly accentuated her feminine curves.

Upon seeing her nephew, the woman's eyes lit up, and she rushed over and pulled him into her voluptuous arms.

"Cough cough... Auntie, let go!"

"My friends are all watching!"

Peng Zhe struggled to stick his head out, a blush rising on his face.
