"For Fengxian!"

"Don't let a single one escape!"

On the other hand, for Suzuran, Nakai's crushing defeat was like the last straw, completely crushing their already shaky fighting spirit due to Kurosaki Ryuji's terrifying performance.

Faced with the bald men of Fengxian, who pounced like tigers descending a mountain with overwhelming momentum, they completely lost the will to resist.

"Run...run fast!"

"Brother Zhongjing has fallen! We couldn't hold him off!"

"Retreat! Retreat now! Otherwise, they'll wipe us all out!"

The Suzuran delinquents, whose morale had already been completely shattered by Nakai's fall, collapsed completely at this moment. Like a flock of sheep being driven away, they abandoned their armor and weapons, wanting only to escape this hellish battlefield.

The ensuing battle turned into a one-sided pursuit and mopping-up operation.

With their morale shattered, the Lily of the Valley delinquents fell like wheat being harvested under the furious iron fists of the Housen bald men.

Wu Jiujiangcheng didn't even need to take action himself.

Meanwhile, on the Suzuran side, the only one still standing, Makise Takashi, was also unable to believe that it would end like this. With a blank look in his eyes, he was tackled and beaten down by several Housen bald men.

The ensuing battle ended in a very short time.

At the intersection of Xilong Street, Suzuran delinquents dressed in black uniforms lay scattered about, their groans echoing throughout the area.

Only the members of the Hōseon clan, still dressed, were left standing.

After a brief silence.

“We won!!!!”

"We beat Lily of the Valley!!!"

"Long live Fengxian!!!"

"Alas--!!!"

The deafening cheers, filled with ecstasy, excitement, and triumph, resounded through the sky like a volcanic eruption.

All the bald men of the Phoenix Fairy, whether injured or unharmed, were so excited that their faces turned red, and they raised their arms and shouted.

This marks the first time in the history of the Northwest Branch of Fengxian that it has achieved victory in a large-scale conflict with the Southwest Branch of Linglan!

Especially considering that last year, everyone suffered a crushing defeat against Suzuran Southwest Campus.

The pride of this victory is enough to wash away all the pain and exhaustion.

Wu Jiujiangcheng stood in the center of the cheering crowd, looking at the exciting scene before him, a smile of satisfaction and pride appeared on his face.

But his sharp gaze involuntarily fell upon Kurosaki Ryuji, who stood at the edge of the battlefield, seemingly out of place in the frenzied atmosphere, slowly lighting a cigarette for himself.

Ryuji Kurosaki was looking at the pop-up panel in front of him.

Congratulations on completing the task "The Bottom Line of Being a Delinquent"!

[Rewards: Stamina +1, Leg Strength +2]

Although the rewards are not much.

At this moment, Kurosaki Ryuji's overall combat strength reached 1068 points, entering the S+ level.

.....................

In the evening, inside a private room of a traditional Japanese izakaya filled with the lively atmosphere of home cooking.

The skewers of grilled chicken sizzled over the charcoal fire, emitting an enticing aroma.

Water droplets condensed on the walls of the chilled beer glass.

Takehisa Eki and Kurosaki Ryuji sat facing each other, with a sumptuous feast laid out on the table.

"Today... I really owe you a lot."

Takehisa Ekichi raised his glass and looked solemnly at Kurosaki Ryuji.

His face showed genuine gratitude.

"If you hadn't arrived in time to stop that bastard Fukagawa's stupid behavior, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

"Wu Jiujiangcheng" refers to the incident where Fukagawa Hisashi pulled out a dagger, which is an absolute taboo in this kind of violent fight where might makes right.

If word gets out, it will bring shame upon the entire Fengxian area.

And what if Zhongjing really was killed?

So, regardless of whether he himself would be implicated, his brother, Toshiki Fukagawa, would be completely finished for life.

Therefore, Takehisa Ekiro sincerely expressed his gratitude to Ryuji Kurosaki.

Ryuji Kurosaki calmly raised his glass and clinked it against Ekiji Takehisa's, producing a crisp sound.

He took a sip of his cold beer and said in a flat tone, "It's nothing. I just happened to be passing by and gave you a kick. As long as you don't blame me for killing Fukagawa Hisashiki, it's fine."

Wu Jiujiang looked at him intently, clearly not believing his explanation.

"No matter what, it was because of you that Fengxian was able to defeat Linglan today. Otherwise, it would have been another crushing defeat for Fengxian."

After saying these words, Wu Jiujiangcheng took a deep breath and slowly lowered his head: "Anyway... thank you very much!"

"No need to thank me. Actually, I should apologize. It was all my fault. Otherwise, Zhongjing wouldn't have brought people to attack."

Ryuji Kurosaki put down his wine glass and said seriously.

"No...it has nothing to do with you. Given the current situation between Fengxian and Linglan, there have been constant minor conflicts."

Takehisa Eki shook his head, disagreeing with Kurosaki Ryuji's statement.

In his view, Ryuji Kurosaki was merely retaliating against Suzuran's harassment, a normal means of self-defense.

You can't just stand there and let someone beat you up just because you're from Fengxian and the other person is from Linglan, and you're afraid of Linglan's revenge.

In that situation, Wu Jiujiangcheng would have been eager to personally take action and slap Suzuran's guy a few times.

Moreover, the relationship between lily of the valley and impatiens is like a powder keg that could explode at any moment.

Even without Ryuji Kurosaki, someone else might have caused the conflict and ignited the explosive barrel.

Even if no one else caused the conflict, Takehisa Ekijo wanted to take matters into his own hands and get back at Suzuran for the defeat he suffered last year.

223 It just so happens that Ryuji Kurosaki did this.

"Most importantly, it's you...because of you, Fengxian achieved a hard-won victory! Really, it's been so long since I've felt this good, haha~~~"

As Wu Jiujiangcheng spoke, he gulped down a large amount of wine.

"Is that so? Speaking of which, Senior Takehisa..."

Ryuji Kurosaki picked up a perfectly grilled chicken leg, took a slow and deliberate bite, and ate slowly.

"Ok?"

Wu Jiujiang was stunned for a moment.

At this moment, the entire private room fell silent.

The only sounds in the private room were the crackling of the charcoal fire and the soft rustling of his chewing.

Only after swallowing his food did Kurosaki Ryuji raise his head, his sharp eyes staring directly at Takehisa Eki.

"In Suzuran, Nakai is just a faction leader. In order to salvage Suzuran's defeat, the leaders of other factions will probably take action as well."

Ryuji Kurosaki's voice wasn't loud, but it clearly pierced through the noise of the izakaya, carrying an undeniable power: "Under these circumstances, Housen needs to unite and stand together against external threats, so it's time for things to come to a conclusion between us, isn't it?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Jiujiang frowned sharply, then relaxed and nodded.

"Indeed, but why can't we join forces first?"

“There is no room for two tigers in one mountain.”

"I am your senior!"

"I'm naturally stubborn and I can't bow my head to others."

Hearing Kurosaki Ryuji's words, Takehisa Eki nodded and picked up his wine glass: "Alright, you decide the time!"

Ryuji Kurosaki raised his glass and clinked it against his: "Once Fukagawa-senpai and the others have recovered from their injuries, if Suzuran attacks in the meantime, I will handle it."

"Alright, it's settled then. I'll be waiting for you on the rooftop of Housen. If you're so capable, then take the position of Housen Bancho!"

After Wu Jiujiangcheng finished speaking, he poured the remaining beer in his glass into his mouth.

The same applies to Ryuji Kurosaki.

A storm that will determine Fengxian's future has already begun during this drinking session.

Chapter 104 The Lily of the Valley is about to get lively again!

The Fengxian Northwest Branch School was immersed in the euphoria of its historic victory, with deafening noise.

Meanwhile, there's the Suzuran Southwest Branch School, which is adjacent to it.

At this moment, it felt as if a thick, leaden cloud soaked in ice water was pressing down on us, and the atmosphere in the air was extremely oppressive.

The news of the Nakai faction's crushing defeat spread like a deadly plague, reaching every corner of Suzuran at an alarming speed.

When they heard that Zhongjing, one of the three major factions, had not only led hundreds of people to be wiped out, they were shocked.

I was beaten so badly by an unknown newcomer from Fengxian that I ended up in the hospital like a dead dog, causing an uproar throughout the entire Lily of the Valley.

"Impossible! How could Nakai lose to those bald guys from Housen?!"

"Where did that guy named Kurosaki Ryuji come from? Was there such a person in Housen before?"

"Over a hundred people! And they were just driven back like that? When did Fengxian become so strong?"

Shock, anger, humiliation—a torrent of negative emotions surged wildly in the depths of every lily of the valley's troubled heart, like boiling magma.

This is not just a failure of the Nakai faction.

It was an even greater disgrace to the entire Southwest Branch of Lily of the Valley.

.......

At this moment, on the rooftop of the Southwest Branch School of Suzuran.

A cold wind swept across the empty concrete ground, carrying a biting chill.

Kawanishi Noboru, the leader of one of the three major factions at the Southwest Branch of Suzuran, was leaning against the barbed wire fence at the edge of the rooftop, the cigarette butt in his mouth flickering in the wind, his eyes glaring menacingly in the direction of the distant Hōsō.

Several of his trusted confidants stood beside him, each with a solemn expression.

Like a wolf about to pounce on its prey, he silently suppressed the ferocity in his chest.

The air was so thick you could almost wring water out of it; only the faint hissing of burning cigarettes and the whistling of the wind echoed in the deathly silence.

"Is the news confirmed?"

After a long while, Kawanishi Noboru's voice rang out, much lower than usual, revealing little emotion.

But those who know him well know that this is an expression of his extreme anger.

"Hmm... Boss, our people have been confirmed at the hospital."

A bespectacled, seemingly refined confidant pushed up his glasses and said in a deep voice, "Zhong Jing's injuries are severe, with multiple fractures and a concussion. He will need to stay in bed for at least a long time."

"As for the men he brought with him, they were all taken down... This time, Zhongjing suffered a complete and utter defeat, losing to Fengxian."

"waste!"

A burly man with a face full of scars couldn't help but growl, "Isn't Zhongjing usually quite the braggart? He led so many people and couldn't even take down the Fengxian branch school? And got beaten up like this? He's completely disgraced Linglan!"

Kawanishi Noboru exhaled a smoke ring, his eyes becoming even more profound amidst the swirling smoke: "The point isn't that Nakai lost, but... the person who defeated him..."

He paused, then continued, "A silver-haired newcomer? When did Wu Jiujiang City produce such a person? Even Zhong Jing was cleanly and efficiently taken down."

After all, they are both third-year students at Suzuran High School, and Kawanishi Noboru and Nakai have faced each other before, more than once.

He naturally understood the limits of Zhongjing's strength.

I couldn't help but feel curious and surprised about the person who defeated Nakai.

"So... what do we do now?"

The bespectacled man continued, asking the next question.
