"Are you looking for death!" Wang Lin's expression was ferocious.
With his girlfriend still by his side, how could he afford to lose face?
As a strength-type Awakened, Wang Lin had long cultivated to the Bronze level!
Could he not even handle Jiang Nan, a mere Black Iron?
So, he gritted his teeth and threw another punch.
"Bang!"
This punch was firmly caught by Jiang Nan, who squeezed it tightly.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!"
Wang Lin howled in pain, his face contorted.
He began to doubt his life!
I am the strength-type Awakened! How could I be overpowered in strength!
Is this kid also a strength Awakened?
How can he be so strong? Isn't he a spatial-type?
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +888!]
The system notification echoed in Jiang Nan's mind.
Jiang Nan's eyes immediately lit up.
After integrating the system, he had a basic understanding of its functions.
The Lucky Wheel is used to draw prizes with resentment value!
One draw requires 10,000 resentment value!
Ten consecutive draws require 100,000!
He didn't know how to obtain this resentment value just now.
But now it seems simple! Just make people resent you!
What kind of perverted hobby does this system have?
At this moment, Jiang Nan's gaze towards Wang Lin changed.
It was as if he was looking at a golden Pi Xiu.
He turned Wang Lin over, pressed him to the ground, and straddled him.
A punch to the left.
"Bang!"
"Ouch!"
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +666]
A punch to the right.
"Bang"
"Ouch!"
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +686]
...
Jiang Nan's punches rained down, the "bang-ouch" sounds never ceased, and he was ecstatic seeing the resentment value constantly refreshing!
It was like eating gum, he couldn't stop!
After a while, he still wasn't satisfied, so he picked up a small stool and started smashing Wang Lin's face.
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +999!]
Hehe? Using a small stool seems to yield more than using fists?
A crowd gathered to watch, and many were recording videos on their phones.
"Damn, this bald guy is too fierce! He doesn't look old, but he's really going all out, isn't he?"
"This is a bit too much, right? Look at how he's beating him up? His face is swollen..."
"Too much? I saw it just now, that girl overturned this guy's stall and called us stinky street vendors! If he doesn't beat him, who will?"
"He deserves it! We street vendors are responding to the national call!"
Li Mu Yan stood there, panic-stricken and at a loss.
Wang Lin is a three-star Bronze, a strength Awakened with extraordinary combat power.
How could he be beaten so badly by Jiang Nan, a mere Black Iron?
Is he on steroids?
Jiang Nan is usually a pretty decent guy...
"Stop! I'll call the police if you don't stop!"
[Resentment Value from Li Mu Yan +888]
Jiang Nan paused, looking at Wang Lin, who was already a pig's head.
His face, swollen like a pig's head, was streaming with tears; he was actually crying?
"Fine, I'll stop. But you messed up all my socks. How am I supposed to sell them? You buy them!"
Wang Lin's mentality was already broken; he was being thoroughly beaten by a high school student...
He weakly asked, "How much?"
"Ten yuan per pair!"
"What? Isn't it ten yuan for four pairs? Are you trying to rob me?"
Jiang Nan pouted, "What do you think I'm doing?"
Wang Lin: "..."
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +666]
A total of over 200 pairs of socks, over 2,000 yuan, was in his hands!
Wang Lin didn't want to buy them, but if he didn't, he probably wouldn't be able to leave today...
Li Mu Yan hurriedly helped up the beaten-up Wang Lin and said resentfully, "Tomorrow is the monthly test for the Spirit Martial class. Just wait to be kicked out!"
"Starting tomorrow, you won't be able to stay in the Spirit Martial class!"
Jiang Nan didn't hear what she said, he was still waving...
"God, take your time, come back next time!"
[Resentment Value from Wang Lin +999!]
Come back?
Come back to get beaten up again?
The crowd grew larger, and Jiang Nan, having made his money, didn't dare to stay any longer.
He quickly wrapped up his stall, threw it on the back of his bicycle, and tucked the small stool under his arm.
Jiang Nan rode his "Phoenix" 28-inch bike.
Feeling good, he hummed a tune.
"Riding my beloved bicycle, I'll never get stuck in traffic..."
The chain "clinked" against the fender, as if accompanying him.
Tomorrow was the monthly test for the Spirit Martial class at Jiangcheng No. 1 High School. Jiang Nan's talent was too poor.
Since he awakened his spatial ability in his first year of high school, becoming one in ten thousand Spirit Martial, he only upgraded to a pitiful three-star Black Iron by his third year.
His classmates were already at the peak of Black Iron, and some had even advanced to Bronze.
If his cultivation didn't break through to five-star Black Iron in this monthly test, he would be kicked back to the regular class.
He would no longer receive the spirit pearls provided by the school for cultivation, and his strength would stagnate...
Twenty years ago, spirit ruins appeared all over the world, and the spiritual energy that spewed out brought the Earth into the era of spiritual energy revival.
At the same time, a large number of spirit beasts emerged, impacting human society.
Due to the revival of spiritual energy, humans could awaken abilities!
After the initial turmoil and paying a heavy price, today's peaceful era was achieved.
However, the awakening of abilities would inevitably impact human society, so various policies for Spirit Martial were gradually improved!
Spirit Martial universities were established in major cities and provinces across the country, and Spirit Martial classes were set up in high schools as one of the policies.
Jiang Nan was fortunate to become an Awakened, and even the rarest spatial ability.
But he was given the worst talent.
That's why such a big mess happened!
Originally, Jiang Nan thought being kicked out was fine; being an ordinary person was also good.
With hands and feet, even as an orphan, he could support himself.
But the "Strongest Street Vendor System" he accidentally obtained made Jiang Nan's thoughts more active.
"I hope that Cleansing Fruit really works!"
Jiang Nan thought, feeling a coolness on his head...
Damn, he forgot he was bald!
That damn strength potion was a scam.
"System, why did you only introduce the effects in your description? Why not mention the side effects?"
"Are you trying to scam me?"
[Don't worry about the details!]
Jiang Nan: "Wang Defa?"
Given the system's nature, wouldn't the Cleansing Fruit also have some side effects...
Why think so much? Just try it at home!
After riding for over half an hour, he arrived at a small alley in the suburbs of Jiangcheng.
At the entrance of the alley was a bustling barbecue stall, with many customers. Jiang Nan's stomach growled.
The aunt serving the dishes called out, "Xiao Nan, just closing your stall? Hungry, right? Come, Aunt Zhou will make you a plate of fried noodles!"
Jiang Nan smiled, "No need, Aunt Zhou, I've already eaten outside. Here's this month's rent, 2500 yuan. Sorry for the delay!"
Aunt Zhou took the rent, "Oh, it's not easy for you, studying and running a stall..."
"Why the bald head?"
Jiang Nan: "..."
"Hehe, just thought it would be cooler in summer..."
"Alright, looks good!"
After a few more pleasantries, Jiang Nan hurried home, eager to test the Cleansing Fruit and see if it really worked!
