Chapter 4

"won't kill him, just cripple him." Zhang Dong absorbed the internal energy while monitoring Li Chengzong's martial power through the surveillance device. He noticed that Li Chengzong's martial power was rapidly decreasing, quickly dropping from 38 points to 10 points. His internal energy was also drying up, while Zhang Dong's martial power was rapidly increasing, from 51 points to 73 points.

Zhang Dong was overjoyed, loosened his foot, and shouted, "Get lost! Close your taekwondo gym as soon as possible, or I'll come and kick it, and cripple everyone!"

The people Li Chengzong brought were terrified, struggling to their feet, lifting Li Chengzong, and leaving in a hurry.

In the Tai Chi gym, however, there was a loud cheer that lasted for a long time.

Under the countless admiring and respectful gazes, Zhang Dong was invited into the office by Chen Shanhe, who asked excitedly, "Xiaodong, how can you have such high martial skills? I, I don't have the qualifications to be your master."

"I often come here to hang out and secretly learned a lot about Tai Chi. I also often seek your guidance, and without realizing it, I cultivated internal energy. You are indeed my master." Zhang Dong told a well-intentioned lie, not wanting Chen Shanhe to bear the burden of his great kindness, and also to avoid affecting the Tai Chi gym. Besides, if he hadn't obtained the surveillance device, he would have definitely become Chen Shanhe's disciple and called him master.

"Genius, a true genius. I, I, what virtue do I have to be your master?" Chen Shanhe felt uneasy.

"Master, you can't be jealous that I surpassed you, can you?" Zhang Dong said with a mischievous smile.

"Ha ha, having a disciple like you, how can the master not be jealous?" Chen Shanhe laughed, his unease gradually disappearing, and a deep sense of pride surging in his heart. After all, he believed that Zhang Dong had learned and understood the essence of Tai Chi through his influence in the gym, and having such a powerful disciple was a great honor and a cause for celebration.

He couldn't help but say, "Let's go have a few drinks, and not stop until we're drunk."

"No need. The college entrance exam is coming up, and I need to go back to school. If anyone comes to challenge the gym in the future, just call me. My fists are itching." Zhang Dong said.

"Are you still going to take the college entrance exam?"

"Master, do you think I won't pass?" Zhang Dong laughed.

"Yes, I hope you come to the gym to help me, and I still have some Tai Chi principles to teach you." Chen Shanhe smiled awkwardly, escorting Zhang Dong out of the door.

"Master, you might be disappointed. I can pass the college entrance exam and will be leaving Chun Cheng soon. You should focus on training the senior disciples and improving their skills." Zhang Dong said with a smile, then walked towards the school, bathed in the evening glow.

As soon as he stepped into the school gate, Liu Kui rushed over, shouting, "Brother Dong, it's bad, it's bad..."

"What's wrong, is the sky falling?" Zhang Dong said calmly.

"Brother Dong, our two 'wives' are being harassed by Liu Si and his people." Liu Kui said in a panic.

Don't misunderstand, Zhang Dong and Liu Kui are still high school seniors and naturally don't have wives. However, they both have crushes on girls in their class. Zhang Dong likes Chen Xiaojiao, and Liu Kui likes Gao Qian. They both consider these girls their "wives" and won't allow anyone else to touch them.

Moreover, they have been the bottom two students in the grade for three years, with little hope of passing the college entrance exam. With only two days left until the exam, they naturally had no qualms about their actions.

Besides, Zhang Dong is no longer the same Zhang Dong. He now has the surveillance device and has become an internal martial arts expert. He was furious and shouted, "Lead the way."

At a corner of the playground of Chun Cheng No. 1 High School.

Chen Xiaojiao and Gao Qian were surrounded by four tall and muscular students.

Chen Xiaojiao, standing at 1.67 meters, had a curvaceous figure, a delicate face, and skin as white as snow. She was truly a beauty, though not on the beauty list, she was a rare sight.

Gao Qian was a bit shorter than Chen Xiaojiao, but her appearance was not much different.

The leader of the group was Liu Si, a remarkable person. He excelled academically, scoring around 700 points out of 750 in five subjects, consistently ranking third in the entire school. Moreover, he had a strong interest in martial arts, with martial power not much weaker than Zhang Dong's.

He stared greedily at the two beauties and said excitedly, "Xiaojiao, the day after the college entrance exam is my birthday. I invite you to my birthday party. My mother really wants to meet you."

Liu Si's mother, Xu Xun, is the chairman of Chun Cheng Kemei Company, with a registered capital of 300 million yuan, a massive company. Mentioning his mother was partly to show off.

This was also a bad habit of Liu Si as a rich second generation. In any conversation, he would mention his mother within three sentences.

"Ugh, I'm going to vomit." Zhang Dong and Liu Kui, who were running over, said sarcastically.

"Zhang Dong, Liu Kui, get lost, or you'll regret it." Liu Si was trembling with anger. Over the past three years, he had made multiple confessions to Chen Xiaojiao, but they were all maliciously ruined by Zhang Dong and Liu Kui, who were like two stirring sticks, preventing him from getting what he wanted.

"Niushi (Liu Si's nickname), you keep mentioning your mother. I think you haven't been weaned yet." Zhang Dong said with disdain.

"You, you, beat them up!" Liu Si, relying on his numbers and wealth, shouted.

"Wait." Gao Qian said sternly, "Do you think this is a martial arts contest? Winning means you get the girl?"

The few who were ready to fight stopped and looked at the two beauties. Zhang Dong smiled foolishly, "Daughter-in-law, do you have a better idea?"

"Ha ha." Chen Xiaojiao was amused.

Gao Qian, angry, kicked Zhang Dong, "Brother Dong, you're flirting with me again, are you trying to die?"

Zhang Dong quickly dodged and laughed, "Daughter-in-law, you're indeed fierce. No wonder Liu Kui loves you so much."

"Filth from a dog's mouth." Gao Qian was furious and was about to continue chasing Zhang Dong but was stopped by Chen Xiaojiao, who whispered in her ear. Gao Qian then said mischievously, "Zhang Dong, Liu Si, I know you both like Xiaojiao. Now Xiaojiao gives you a chance. If you can seize it, you can win her. But if you fail, you must not bother her again, understand?"

"What chance?" Zhang Dong and Liu Si were both interested.

"It's simple. The college entrance exam is in two days. Xiaojiao plans to attend Yanjing University. If you can also get in, you have the right to pursue her. If you can score 10 points higher than Xiaojiao, she will be your girlfriend immediately. If you can score 20 points higher, she will be your wife, and you can consummate the marriage on the same day." Gao Qian said with a smile.

"Consummate the marriage? Heaven, you naughty girl, what are you talking about?" Chen Xiaojiao blushed and pinched Gao Qian's waist.

"Spare me, spare me." Gao Qian said sweetly, but her eyes were filled with contempt and pity for Zhang Dong and Liu Si.

Because this was almost impossible. The admission score for Yanjing University was notoriously high, requiring at least 710 points. Although Liu Si could score around 700 points in mock exams, it was still difficult for him to get into Yanjing University. As for Zhang Dong, who was the bottom student, it was even more impossible.

However, Chen Xiaojiao was certain to get into Yanjing University, as she had been the top student in the school for three years, scoring over 720 points in recent mock exams.

To surpass Chen Xiaojiao by 10 or 20 points was even more impossible. Even the national top scorer might not dare to make such a claim.

Liu Si, who felt good about himself, was stunned. Wasn't this a polite rejection?

Zhang Dong, however, stared intently at Chen Xiaojiao's beautiful eyes and asked solemnly, "Wife, will you keep your word?"

"Rascal, you only know how to take advantage of me." Chen Xiaojiao spat at Zhang Dong but said firmly, "Of course."

"If I score 20 points higher than you in the college entrance exam, will you really be my wife?" Zhang Dong asked with a strange expression.

"I would be willing, and I hope for a miracle, but is it possible?" Chen Xiaojiao said irritably.

"Xiaojiao, you are destined to be my wife, Zhang Dong's wife." Zhang Dong said with certainty.

"You're dreaming. With your bottom score, getting 400 points would be a miracle." Liu Si sneered, "Only I, if I perform exceptionally, have a chance to get into Yanjing University, then I will have the right to pursue Xiaojiao."

"Niushi, with your short stature, Yanjing University will never accept you." Zhang Dong retorted.

Liu Kui took the opportunity to walk up to Gao Qian and said with a grin, "Wife, you haven't announced the conditions for pursuing you yet."

Gao Qian's face turned red with anger. The term "wife" had followed her for three years, but she couldn't do anything about Liu Kui. She said coldly, "I plan to attend Yanjing University of Technology. If you can get in, I will be your wife."

Liu Kui's head drooped. Yanjing University of Technology was also a prestigious university with a high admission score, requiring at least 680 points. As the second-to-last student in the school, he had no chance of getting into any university, let alone Yanjing University of Technology.

"Ha ha ha."

The two beauties laughed and left with their heads held high. For three years, they had finally gained the upper hand over Zhang Dong and Liu Kui, using their absolute strength!

Liu Si glared at Zhang Dong and Liu Kui and hurried away, determined to study hard, hoping to score a few more points and possibly get into Yanjing University.

Liu Kui, however, said with a look of frustration, "Brother Dong, can we just watch our 'wives' fall into someone else's arms?"

"Who made you so lazy and the second-to-last in the class?" Zhang Dong said irritably.

"I'm lazy? At least I'm not the last." Liu Kui was不服气 (unwilling to admit defeat).

"You don't understand. I'm actually a true expert. Low-key, low-key is the way to go." Zhang Dong said seriously, "But now, I'm forced to show my brilliance and score an incredibly high score to make Xiaojiao my wife."

"You're just boasting." Liu Kui didn't believe him, "No one has ever been imprisoned for boasting."

"I never boast." Zhang Dong said with a mischievous smile, "Why don't we make a bet?"

"What kind of bet?" Liu Kui became excited.

"Of course, a bet on your 'wife.' If I get into Yanjing University, your 'wife' Gao Qian will be mine, and you can't complain. If I don't get in, I'll treat you to a big meal." Zhang Dong said with a mischievous smile.

"You're talking nonsense." Liu Kui was furious.

"Or, how about this? If I can help you win Gao Qian, I'll take her place on your wedding night. Deal?" Zhang Dong said with a mischievous smile.

"Th-this... Brother Dong, do you really have a way to help me win Gao Qian?" Liu Kui's eyes shone with intense heat...
