Chen Yang didn’t pay much attention to the other person’s expression, predicting in his mind which direction the other person would advance.

Suddenly, the other person moved his left foot and took a step to the left. Chen Yang subconsciously moved to the left as well, but ended up being knocked down, clutching his chest in pain, unable to speak.

"Are you okay!?" The person asked with an anxious look on his face, but inwardly he was sneering. When he moved to the left, he had deliberately used his shoulder to ram Chen Yang’s chest, and it would be strange if it didn’t hurt.

If it were a professional, even if it was a foul, few people would notice. Mao Shi and the others just thought it was an accident, and even Chen Yang himself thought it was just an accident.

A group of people gathered around and asked a few questions. Chen Yang finally came to his senses, and with great effort, he got up. Not wanting to lose face, he forced a smile and said, "I’m fine, let’s continue!"

"Be gentler when playing!" Mao Shi quickly shouted, and the others didn’t take it seriously, continuing to play basketball.

There were no major issues afterward. Basketball is a physical sport, and bumps and bruises are inevitable. Even hand-checking and collisions didn’t seem strange. However, in reality, it was just that these four people hadn’t found a good opportunity yet.

After about twenty minutes, Mao Shi passed the ball to Chen Yang. Seeing this as an opportunity, one of the four people moved in, but his defense was loose. With the help of the other three, a gap appeared on the left side, specifically to let Chen Yang through.

Sure enough, Chen Yang saw only two people on the left and immediately grabbed the ball and charged forward, dribbling and breaking into the key.

The four people sneered inwardly and quickly moved in. Just as Chen Yang jumped to shoot, one of them suddenly leaped, and his hand came down with a loud thud, aiming to block the shot but missing, and instead, hit Chen Yang’s face hard.

Chen Yang lost his balance and crashed to the ground, letting out a muffled groan. He clutched his arm and curled up on the ground, sweating from the pain.

This time, even a fool could see something was wrong. The block could have been stopped in time, but this person had directly hit Chen Yang’s face, clearly intentional.

Liu Yuan, who had a short temper, immediately pointed at the person who had knocked Chen Yang down and shouted, "Damn it, did you do that on purpose!?"

The person feigned ignorance, explaining with a bitter smile, "I didn’t do it on purpose."

"Don’t bullshit me!" Liu Yuan picked up the ball and threw it at him, "Are you blind!?"

"Damn it, I already said it wasn’t on purpose!" The person deflected the ball and also got angry. It looked like the two were about to fight, but Mao Shi quickly held back Liu Yuan and said, "That’s enough, stop it, Chen Yang seems to have a broken arm!"

"You bastard, don’t think this is over!" Liu Yuan, who came from the countryside, looked gentle but was actually strong, standing at 1.8 meters tall. If they really fought, the other person might not be a match for Liu Yuan.

"Alright, stop arguing, let’s take Chen Yang to the school hospital first!" Zhang Rui quickly shouted. Liu Yuan glared at the other person and then stopped, going over to check on Chen Yang. Chen Yang’s entire arm was swollen, and he urgently said, "Mao Shi, quickly call the school hospital to send a stretcher!"

Mao Shi nodded and hurriedly ran to the basketball hoop to get his phone. The four people glanced at each other and left without a word, seemingly in a huff.

"Zhang Rui, secretly follow them, but don’t let them notice..."

At this moment, Chen Yang, who had just come to his senses from the intense pain, said in a low voice.

Liu Yuan had noticed something was wrong, and Chen Yang had also seen it. In that situation, there shouldn’t have been any accidents.

No matter how careless, it shouldn’t have been so forceful to hit the face!

Chen Yang was very clear that the other person was deliberately doing it, but he was puzzled. They were complete strangers, so why would they target him?

Zhang Rui nodded and waited until the four people were far away before circling around the basketball court.

Not long after, the school hospital’s ambulance arrived, and Chen Yang was placed on a stretcher. Liu Yuan accompanied him, while Mao Shi temporarily took Tian Tian back to the dormitory.

...

After leaving the basketball court, Zhang Rui followed the four people from a distance. Soon, he saw them enter the cafeteria, laughing and chatting.

He couldn’t help but frown. Normally, if you hurt someone, even if you left in a huff, it would still be a bit unusual. But this group of people was laughing without a care, which clearly indicated something was wrong.

After observing for a while, Zhang Rui left and went to the school hospital to find Chen Yang and the others.

At this time, Chen Yang’s left hand had just been treated. Fortunately, it wasn’t broken, just a congested blood vessel, and he needed to rest for a while.

Zhang Rui returned and recounted everything he had seen. Chen Yang’s mood immediately darkened.

Even if it wasn’t targeted at him, the fact that they were laughing after hurting someone was infuriating.

The others’ expressions were also grim. Liu Yuan, with a dark face, said after a while, "Chen Yang, should I call a few brothers who work here and find an opportunity to teach them a lesson?"

"No!" Chen Yang shook his head, "Fighting in school is a big deal. If it affects our graduation, it would be troublesome. I appreciate your offer, Liu Yuan, but for now, we’ll let it go. When the time comes, I’ll settle the score."

Seeing Chen Yang’s determination, the others didn’t say anything more.

Chen Yang’s eyes flickered.

Now, I, Chen Yang, am not the same as before. If it were the past, I wouldn’t have been able to do much to you, but now, with the protection of the gods, I have a thousand ways to deal with you!

Back in the dormitory, after applying some medicine, Chen Yang lay down on the bed. Fortunately, only his left hand was injured, and it didn’t affect him much. At least he could still use his phone, and one hand was enough for grabbing red envelopes.

While scrolling through the chat records in the group, he pondered how to take revenge for that slap.

If it were truly unintentional, Chen Yang wouldn’t have cared, but since it was deliberate, the nature of the matter changed. As the saying goes, even if I don’t get the steamed bun, I’ll get the satisfaction. Chen Yang had already marked these four people as his top targets for revenge.

After thinking for a while, Chen Yang made a decision. He waited until everyone was asleep and then took out the Bai Ling Pill.

"Sure enough, it’s a good thing, the fragrance is overwhelming, and it makes me hungry just smelling it..."

Chen Yang’s lips curled, and he threw the Bai Ling Pill into his mouth.

Hmm!? It’s chocolate-flavored?

Just as he swallowed it, he felt a warm current surge from his lower abdomen, gradually rising. Soon, he felt as if he were in a sauna.

Chen Yang was sweating profusely, and in a short while, he was drenched in sweat.

"Is it because the medicine is too strong?"

Chen Yang couldn’t help but panic. After all, this was a pill for the gods, and he was just a mortal. What if he accidentally exploded?

However, the panic was short-lived. The warm current slowly subsided, and Chen Yang regained his composure. He moved his left arm slightly and felt no pain, clearly indicating that he had fully recovered.

It seemed the effects didn’t stop there. Chen Yang felt that his body had changed in some way.

"It feels like my body is lighter, and I have more strength..."

Chen Yang shook his head, unsure if it was the effect of the Bai Ling Pill or just his imagination. However, because of the warm current, his body felt sticky, and he quickly got out of bed to take a shower.

"Woof! Woof! Woof!"

Tian Tian, who was lying in the doghouse Chen Yang had made, suddenly barked. Chen Yang was startled and quickly made a gesture to hush her, but then he realized that Tian Tian was just a dog and wouldn’t understand.

However, to his surprise, after he made the hushing gesture, Tian Tian actually stopped barking. In the dim moonlight, Chen Yang saw that Tian Tian’s eyes were emitting a faint glow.

"Damn, did you become a spirit?"

Chen Yang was stunned and subconsciously waved his hand. Tian Tian obediently came out of the doghouse and squatted at Chen Yang’s feet.

Hmm!?

Chen Yang blinked and whispered, "Jump!"

Tian Tian immediately jumped.

"Circle around!"

"Stand up!"

"Roll over!"

" Dance!"

Tian Tian stopped and stared at Chen Yang, probably thinking, "You jump and show me!"

"Call me daddy!"

"Woof! Woof!"

Chen Yang was overjoyed. Damn, she really did become a spirit!
