Chapter 7

Ling stood at the podium, excitedly saying, "Classmates, I have some good news to share. Li Yang completed two extremely difficult English tests in a short time and scored a perfect 100 on both! His academic performance, which was only 24 points a month ago, has now improved to a perfect 100. The progress is simply amazing, and everyone should learn from him!"

The students, who were frowning and concentrating on their exams, looked up one by one. Their gazes toward Li Yang were complex, filled with envy, jealousy, confusion, and mostly disbelief.

Ling smiled and walked back to Wang Yuxin, gently patting her shoulder. "Yuxin, I was wrong to doubt you. With your help, Li Yang has become an excellent student, which both surprises and comforts me!"

Wang Yuxin, who had not yet finished her exam due to Li Yang's influence, stood up in a panic. Her beautiful face was flushed, and she stammered, not knowing what to say to the grateful Ms. Li.

In the end, it was Li Yang who came to her rescue. He bent down to retrieve his backpack, slung it over his shoulder, and loudly said, "Ms. Li, you chat. I need to go." Afraid that Ms. Li might change her mind and make him take more tests, he ran off like a streak of smoke.

"Oh, this child, I wanted you to share your study methods with everyone!" Ms. Li said with a helpless smile. By then, Li Yang had already disappeared outside the classroom.

"Ms. Li, Li Yang ran out last night after receiving a phone call. I didn't dare tell you. He seemed to be going to a dance troupe to earn money by dancing hip-hop..." Wang Yuxin said to Ms. Li, somewhat embarrassed.

Ms. Li looked at Li Yang's almost invisible figure and said softly, "It's fine. I know all about it. Li Yang is a hardworking child. He not only has to study but also take care of his paralyzed father at home. He also goes to dance to earn money for the family. You children, who have grown up in comfort, can't understand this."

"Oh, that explains why he's so busy. But Ms. Li, how did he suddenly become so smart? He had trouble memorizing English words yesterday, but today he scored a perfect 100 on the English test. It's unbelievable."

"Ha, you silly girl, you've been fooled by Li Yang. He was hiding his true abilities, and you didn't notice! If he hadn't been in a hurry to go home, he might have dared to score 25 points! His anxious look suggests he really had something urgent today."

Hiding his true abilities? Impossible! He couldn't even handle the vocabulary yesterday and even stepped on my feet several times. Wang Yuxin lowered her head in deep thought, suddenly becoming very interested in this mysterious Li Yang.

Li Yang hurriedly rode his bicycle out of the school gate. Normally, students in his graduating class were not allowed to leave the school at will, but Li Yang had his ways with the security guards.

"Uncle Niu, my father is not feeling well. I need to go home and check on him."

"Good child, you must hurry! I'll open the gate for you."

Old Niu, the head of the school security, was a colleague of Li Yang's father. He visited Li Yang's home almost every month to check on Li Tianjun, and naturally, he was very fond of the hardworking child.

Therefore, whenever Li Yang wanted to come or go, it was never a problem. This privilege, besides the principal's son Yin Tianlong, was only given to Li Yang, making his classmates very envious.

Old Niu, standing 1.8 meters tall, was still straight-backed at 50 years old. His skin was dark, his hair was gray, and his voice was like a bell. He had a kind face. As Li Yang rode past him, he felt a bit guilty about the lie he had just told.

He hadn't gone far when he faintly heard the sound of a car and Old Niu's flattering voice, "Master Yin, you're going out too!"

Li Yang couldn't help but turn his head to look behind him. Seeing the principal's son Yin Tianyang's Toyota car, his body stiffened, and his hair stood on end.

He touched the faint pain on the back of his head, feeling that the sound of this Toyota car was very similar to the one he encountered during the attack last night!

He shook his head, thinking it couldn't be possible. He had no old grudges or new enmities with Yin Tianlong, so there was no reason for him to target him.

Before Li Yang had ridden far, the Toyota car sped up and then screeched to a stop in front of him.

The Toyota's window slowly rolled down, and Yin Tianlong, from the driver's seat, extended his middle finger and shouted at Li Yang, "Li Yang, I beat you up last night. Are you convinced?"

Ah, it was indeed Yin Tianlong who beat him last night!

Li Yang's eyes turned red, and he shouted, "We have no grudges or enmities. Why did you do this?"

Yin Tianlong sneered and said, "Ha, I just can't stand seeing you and Wang Yuxin sitting together and chatting all the time. I'm warning you, stay away from her!"

The rear window of the Toyota rolled down, and a clearly student fat boy shouted, "Li Yang, Wang Yuxin is the girl my boss has chosen. If you dare to talk to her again, I'll beat you up!"

"Would you even be sitting next to Wang Yuxin if the principal hadn't stopped our boss from changing classes?" another person shouted.

Li Yang suddenly understood. It turned out that Yin Tianlong had beaten him just because he was sitting next to Wang Yuxin!

This was outrageous. Just because of this small matter, they almost gave him a concussion! Enraged, Li Yang threw his broken bicycle to the side and rushed at Yin Tianlong, ready to fight to the death!

Yin Tianlong, a black belt in karate, was not afraid of Li Yang. As Li Yang lunged at him, he quickly opened the car door and jumped out, kicking Li Yang in the chest!

Although Li Yang was skilled in street dance and agile, he had not learned martial arts. Blinded by anger, he was caught off guard and kicked in the chest by Yin Tianlong!

Fortunately, although Li Yang was slender, his body was still strong. This kick caused him immense pain, and he stumbled back three steps, but he did not fall.

When he tried to lunge forward again despite the pain, the karate experts who had come with Yin Tianlong also jumped out of the car and quickly beat Li Yang to a pulp!

In an instant, Li Yang's chest and thighs were kicked repeatedly. Relying on his determination, he seized the opportunity and landed a heavy punch on Yin Tianlong's chin, causing his mouth to twist!

"Damn it, this trash is still fighting back! You're all useless, quickly take this kid down!" Yin Tianlong screamed.

Their punches and kicks became even more brutal, and Li Yang finally could not hold on, falling to the ground. A rain of punches and kicks rained down on him.

Li Yang curled up, protecting his head, and endured the beating without making a sound, thinking to himself, I didn't care about Wang Yuxin before, but after today, I can't let this good girl fall into the hands of this thug, Yin Tianlong!

"Li Yang, do you want me to vaporize these people?" the Star Brain asked with concern.

"No! If you kill them, I'll be taken to the police station for questioning!" Li Yang quickly used his mind to stop the Star Brain's evil idea.

"Then how can I help you?"

"… If you want to help, just set his Toyota car on fire! Don't do anything like vaporizing; just make it catch fire."

"No problem, it's a small matter!"

In the outer space of the solar system, a huge flying saucer shot a purple beam from its bottom. This beam, which was ten thousand times thinner than a hair, was invisible to the naked eye. It pierced through the dense atmosphere and hit Yin Tianlong's black Toyota car, lasting only 0.001 seconds.

"Boom! Whoosh, sizzle..."

A loud explosion, and Yin Tianlong's Toyota car caught fire for no reason. Yin Tianlong, who was beating Li Yang, turned his head and his handsome face twisted.

"Oh no, this is the new car my mother bought me! Stop beating him, go put out the fire!" Yin Tianlong's voice was filled with tears as he rushed forward.

These people quickly abandoned Li Yang and followed their leader to the Toyota car to put out the fire. As they approached the car, another explosion occurred, forcing them back.

"There's a fire extinguisher in the car. Blackhead, you're the fastest, quickly get it for me!" Yin Tianlong took a few steps back and shouted at a short, flat-headed person.

The small, dark-faced person hesitated for a moment, but after receiving a kick from Yin Tianlong, he had no choice but to rush forward. He quickly took a fire extinguisher from the trunk and ran over. Before he could start extinguishing the fire, another larger fireball exploded from the car, forcing them back again!

At this point, the entire car was engulfed in flames, which grew larger and reached over three meters high.

"My car! Oh, why did it catch fire? Oh..." Yin Tianlong, holding the fire extinguisher and spraying foam, burst into tears.

The small fire extinguisher's foam was ineffective against the large fire. Despite the frantic efforts of the people around him, the fire grew larger and was beyond control. Even calling the fire department would be too late.

Li Yang, enduring the pain, got up from the ground and looked at Yin Tianlong and his group, whose eyebrows and hair were singed like they had been chewed by a dog. He felt an immense sense of satisfaction!

"You can warm yourselves by the fire. I'm leaving! Ha, what a piece of junk, it's clearly a lighter. I suggest you find a bicycle to ride!" Li Yang pushed his bicycle and mocked them.

Yin Tianlong was furious. The fire on the car grew larger, and he knew it was hopeless. He threw the fire extinguisher to the ground and waved his hand, and his group rushed at Li Yang.

Li Yang, unable to fight them, quickly pedaled his bicycle. Yin Tianlong and his group chased after him, but the bicycle, though not fast, was still faster than running on foot. Soon, Li Yang had left them far behind.

Destroying Yin Tianlong's Toyota car and making him believe it was just bad luck gave Li Yang a great sense of satisfaction, and even the pain in his body seemed less severe.

As he got closer to home, he thought about the 600 yuan rent. Seeing that it was almost noon, he became increasingly anxious.

With only half a day left, where could he earn 600 yuan?

He frowned and thought for a long time, finally remembering the diamonds he had seen on the flying saucer. He used his mind to communicate with the Star Brain, "Flying saucer buddy, if I can't come up with 600 yuan for rent by tonight, I'll be kicked out of my home. Can you give me the smallest piece of your star crystals to exchange for money?"

"Not a chance. These star crystals are my life, and I won't give you even a tiny bit!" The Star Brain was as stingy as a miser.

"Fine, there's no point in talking to you, you heartless thing!" Li Yang felt bitter.

After a moment of silence, the Star Brain said softly, "Why do I feel sad when you're sad?"

"Ha, if that's the case, give me a little bit of your star crystals. I don't want the ones as big as a person's head, just the ones as big as a fingertip." Li Yang extended his little finger to illustrate.

He knew that if he could trick the Star Brain into giving him a diamond of that size, it would be enough to ensure a good life for his family.

"No, I said the star crystals are my life, and I won't give them to you."

"Then do you have anything valuable that I can exchange for money?" Li Yang asked dejectedly.
