Chapter 67

"Damn, I have no interest in getting to know a man!" Logan glanced disdainfully at Zhou Yi's outstretched right hand. He bypassed him and directly asked Jean Grey, "Jean, I heard someone is planning to take Rogue away from here. What's going on?"

"This matter is still under confirmation, Logan! You'd better calm down," Jean Grey said, trying to soothe the agitated Logan. Although the man in front of her was a new arrival at the school, he was different from the other students. He was a powerful mutant with rich combat experience and a particularly explosive temper. It was best not to let this guy lose control.

"This isn't something that can be solved by calming down. I don't care why the Professor made this decision, but I won't let Rogue be taken away by someone I don't know. Jean, go with me to see the Professor. If we can't persuade him to change his mind, don't blame me for taking action against that unlucky guy," Logan rambled on to Jean Grey, but his conclusion made Zhou Yi quite unhappy.

There were two reasons for his displeasure: one was the obvious affection Logan showed for Jean Grey, and the other was that he was the "unlucky guy" Logan was talking about.

"Pal, although I really don't want to interfere with your good self-image, I need to remind you that if there's no one else, I'm the unlucky guy you're talking about," Zhou Yi, who was not a good-natured person, naturally wouldn't put on a good face after being met with Logan's cold expression. Instead, he directly mocked him.

"Is that so?" Logan turned around, his eyes fierce like a hungry wolf, staring at Zhou Yi. "It seems I don't need to go see the Professor. Pal, I don't know who you are, but let me give you a piece of advice: stay away from this matter."

"Sorry, I like to get myself into trouble!" Zhou Yi never backed down from threats, especially from a man.

Such a move easily ignited the fuse in Logan's brain. He was never a man who thought before acting. His muscles always moved faster than his brain.

He threw a punch directly at Zhou Yi's face. Logan always enjoyed hitting people in the face, especially those who seemed to rely on their looks. For Zhou Yi, this was a clear provocation. He also enjoyed such provocations because it gave him a free hand to hit back.

Ducking slightly to avoid Logan's punch, Zhou Yi moved close to Logan's chest. He delivered an elbow strike to Logan's stomach, the force immediately causing Logan's body to spasm. This was a natural protective response of the human body, and few could resist it.

After landing the hit, Zhou Yi immediately followed up. For him, the first hit was just the principal, and this was the interest.

Sticking close to Logan's body, as he bent over, Zhou Yi lifted his hand and struck Logan's chin with the palm of his hand. The force on the jawbone made Logan's chin collide with his upper palate, causing him to see stars and feel a strong shock in his brain.

He staggered backward, almost tripping and falling to the ground. In Zhou Yi's eyes, this performance almost proved that he had lost his fighting ability.

But Logan's resilience was beyond Zhou Yi's imagination. He shook his head vigorously and pounced even more fiercely, as if the previous injury didn't exist. Of course, it didn't mean the injury was completely gone; it just made him angrier.

Zhou Yi was quite agile in the face of Logan's attack. In fact, as someone who could move at supersonic speeds, teasing a brute who only used his muscles was incredibly easy. He dodged left and right, and Logan's punches just grazed his clothes, never truly hitting him.

Anyone could see that Zhou Yi was toying with him, but Logan didn't think so. He was a straightforward man who rarely gave up. Of course, this didn't mean he didn't use his brain.

"Hey, slippery eel, are you just going to dodge? Or are you too cowardly to throw a punch like a real man?" Frustrated by missing his target, Logan used a provocation to stimulate Zhou Yi, though he wasn't sure if it would work.

Such obvious provocation usually had no effect. But for Zhou Yi, who had a plan in mind, it was an opportunity.

"You want to face off like a real man? Fine! No problem. I'll show you what a real man is." Saying this, he really stood still and got into a fighting stance, as if he was going to face off with a punch.

This suited Logan's intentions. Although he didn't know why Zhou Yi suddenly gave up his advantage and chose a disadvantageous position like a fair and just knight, it didn't make him feel guilty. He was a man who had been in war. Even if he couldn't remember it, the war had left a deep imprint on his body. In battle, there was only victory or defeat, and the victor could do anything.

Facing Zhou Yi's stance, he swung a powerful right hook. In such a direct confrontation, he never thought he would lose. Because he was made of steel and iron, with his entire body covered in Adamantium, giving him an advantage in such a confrontation. Especially against someone who didn't look particularly strong.

As Logan's punch was about to hit Zhou Yi's face, Zhou Yi put on a look of shock.

"Jean, what are you doing? Stop it quickly."

This exclamation made Logan instantly stop his action and turn to look at Jean Grey behind him. When he saw her innocent face, he realized he had been tricked, but it was too late.

A vicious kick to the groin hit Logan's vital area, causing him intense pain and losing his ability to think. He clutched his crotch and fell to his knees, his face turning red, and his eyes almost bulging out of their sockets. At that moment, all his senses seemed to fail, and he could only feel one thing: pain!

"Pal, I told you I'd show you what a real man is. You're not much of a man now. That's right!" Zhou Yi, who had successfully hit the vital spot, boasted about his victory, though Jean Grey didn't think it was worth boasting about.

This was not the first time Zhou Yi had done something despicable in front of her. The last victim was Scott, who was close to her, and now it was Logan. Thinking about this, Jean Grey couldn't help but hold her head. If this wasn't intentional, it was really her inescapable misfortune.

"You despicable scoundrel!" Logan roared, but his voice sounded particularly funny. Even though Zhou Yi controlled his strength, a man's vital area being hit always had some impact.

"No, no, that's not despicable," Zhou Yi continued to provoke Logan. "That's strategy. I'm not some brute with muscles in his brain."

"Damn it, I'll kill you." Seemingly having a special ability to endure pain, Logan had already recovered after a few seconds. He pounced again, this time with real intent. Three sharp blades emerged from the gaps in his fists, made of Adamantium, which was indestructible. Using this weapon was enough to show Logan's current mood.

"Fool, haven't you seen it yet?" Casually spreading his fingers, he caught Logan's fist through the gaps between the blades. In an instant, Logan's momentum was halted. His fist didn't touch anything because Zhou Yi had already caught his claws before they made contact.

It was as if he had been caught by a giant mechanical clamp. No matter how hard Logan tried, he couldn't move his arm. Because the blades were his claws, and the claws were connected to his bones. This seemingly simple action actually immobilized half of his upper body.

Feeling his body restrained, Logan swung his other claw at Zhou Yi's hand. He didn't think it would hurt him, because in his mind, it would at most force him to let go.

But reality proved he was overthinking. Zhou Yi just reached out with his other hand and grabbed Logan's wrist, completely immobilizing him. With his entire upper body restrained, Logan gritted his teeth, leaned forward, and rammed his head into Zhou Yi's face. This action tore his tendons, causing intense pain, but he still did it.

Because his nature was that of a wolf, a fierce wolf that would bite its enemy even with a body full of wounds.

Colliding heads with someone wasn't a pleasant experience. So Zhou Yi leaned back, dodging Logan's headbutt and making intimate contact with another part of his body.

His hard knee collided with Logan's hard skull. Zhou Yi had to admit that Adamantium bones were too hard. His knee was transmitting pain. Logan was even worse off, his entire body flying backward.

Without Zhou Yi's restraint, he became a flying doll, about to crash into Ororo's desk.

At this moment, two telekinetic forces reached out, catching him and allowing him to land smoothly. One was from Jean Grey, and the other was from Zhou Yi.

Shaking his head, Logan's ability made him immune to any damage. He showed no signs of injury, just extended his claws and glared at Zhou Yi, growling fiercely.

"Jean, I don't need your help!"

Jean Grey didn't respond, but Zhou Yi did.

"Pal, although I don't want to say it, but just now, it wasn't just Jean who helped you." Extending his palm, he directed a telekinetic force at Logan, making him float. Logan tried to struggle, but the force was too strong, leaving him powerless.

"You damn bastard, you're a mutant?" Logan looked at Zhou Yi in disbelief, seemingly not expecting his identity, or that Jean Grey had deceived him.

Zhou Yi chuckled. "Guess what, pal."
