Chapter 053: A Sensational Fight (Part 1)

"Damn! You're quite a tough guy, aren't you!" Black Panther was furious when he saw Lin Yi actually dare to speak to him in such a tone, and he reached out to grab Lin Yi's collar.

Lin Yi suddenly extended his left hand, grabbed Black Panther's right hand, and then stretched out his right hand to pinch Black Panther's cheek. With a flick of his hand, he sent the half-smoked cigarette into Black Panther's mouth.

"Ow—" Black Panther howled as the cigarette butt fell into his throat, instantly scalding a large blister.

Lin Yi's left hand pulled and pushed, sending the disoriented Black Panther to the side.

Black Panther opened his mouth wide, fanning the air with his hands, panting like a dog trying to cool itself down with its tongue out.

Zou Ruoming lay in the school infirmary for half a day, receiving massages and treatments, and finally woke up. After putting a band-aid on his nose, he was supported by his subordinates and walked out, his head still buzzing!

"Damn it, which class is that kid in?" Zou Ruoming said angrily, "Find him for me, I want to beat him so badly that even his mother won't recognize him."

"We don't know either..." Zou Ruoming's subordinates didn't recognize which class Lin Yi was in. There were too many students wearing school uniforms, and none of them stood out.

"Damn it, he's definitely from our school. Find him for me. After class, search each class. When you find him, beat him to death!" Zou Ruoming said viciously.

"Don't worry, Brother Ming!" The subordinates quickly responded. Although they had been scared by Lin Yi's skills earlier, they weren't afraid of him now that they were in a group.

As they left the school infirmary, they noticed that the school was on break. One of Zou Ruoming's subordinates, with keen eyes, saw Zhong Pinliang and Black Panther walking in through the gate. He immediately pointed at them and said, "Brother Ming, look, isn't that Zhong Pinliang and his gang? The people behind them don't seem to be from our school!"

"Hmm?" Zou Ruoming raised his head and looked in the direction his subordinate was pointing. Indeed, he saw Zhong Pinliang, Gao Xiaofu, and Zhang Naipao walking into the school with their heads held high. Behind them were three burly men. Zou Ruoming recognized the leader, a bare-chested, tattooed man, as Black Panther, a well-known figure in the underworld. Zou Ruoming's brother had once introduced him to Black Panther, so he remembered him. He said to his subordinates, "That's Black Panther, he's very famous in the underworld and is known for his fighting skills. I wonder how Zhong Pinliang managed to get him here?"

"Could they be targeting students from our school?" one of Zou Ruoming's subordinates speculated.

"I don't know, but isn't this a bit overkill? Do they really need Black Panther to deal with students from our school?" Zou Ruoming shook his head, unsure of Zhong Pinliang's intentions.

Since he was curious, Zou Ruoming and his subordinates sat on a bench in the schoolyard to watch the situation unfold. Zou Ruoming was also very curious about who could have made Zhong Pinliang go to such lengths.

Suddenly, Zou Ruoming remembered seeing Zhong Pinliang and his gang beaten up the night before. When he asked Zhong Pinliang what happened, Zhong Pinliang didn't say. Could it be that they were beaten by someone and were now coming for revenge?

The more Zou Ruoming thought about it, the more it seemed possible. He couldn't help but find it amusing that Zhong Pinliang, who was becoming more and more of a mess, had been beaten by students from the school and now needed to bring in people from the underworld to settle the score. Even more ridiculous was that Zhong Pinliang claimed they were just playing around and got into a fight.

"Hey? Brother Ming, that kid looks familiar, doesn't he?" One of Zou Ruoming's subordinates pointed at Black Panther's direction in surprise.

"Damn! Isn't that the kid who hit Brother Ming with a basketball earlier?" Another subordinate immediately recognized Lin Yi.

Zou Ruoming quickly focused his gaze and, sure enough, it was the kid who had hit him with a basketball that morning!

"Brother Ming, what should we do now?" Zou Ruoming's subordinates were eager to take action and earn his favor.

"Wait a moment. This kid seems to have run afoul of Zhong Pinliang. If that's the case, let Black Panther deal with him. We don't need to rush in!" Zou Ruoming said calmly.

Although Zou Ruoming's expression was calm, his heart was in turmoil. Zhong Pinliang wasn't as skilled as he was, but his subordinates, Zhang Naipao and Gao Xiaofu, weren't pushovers either. If they had been beaten by Lin Yi and had to bring in someone from the underworld, it meant that Lin Yi was no ordinary student!

Initially, Zou Ruoming thought the basketball incident was a fluke, but now it seemed otherwise. Lin Yi must have some real skills to have attracted Black Panther's attention.

Therefore, Zou Ruoming didn't rush to confront Lin Yi. With Black Panther handling the situation, he could let Black Panther teach the kid a lesson first.

However, what happened next left Zou Ruoming and his subordinates stunned. Before they could understand what was happening, they saw Black Panther clutching his mouth and howling, jumping around on the ground...

Black Panther had never been so humiliated. Being outsmarted by a student made him so angry that he ignored the pain in his throat, his eyes red with rage, and swung a fist at Lin Yi.

Lin Yi could tell that Black Panther was a man with great physical strength, trained in brute force. Although Lin Yi wasn't afraid of him, he had been hit by iron rods by Old Lin without any issues. However, Lin Yi didn't want to draw too much attention to himself by showing no reaction to such a punch in public.

So, Lin Yi quickly dodged, and Black Panther's punch missed. Then, Lin Yi moved swiftly behind Black Panther and kicked him hard in the buttocks.

This was the same move Lin Yi had used on Zhong Pinliang before school started. Lin Yi wanted to defeat this man with a simple move, making it look like a street fight with no particular technique.

Lin Yi didn't want to reveal his true skills in public, as most of what Old Lin had taught him was about assassination. He didn't want too many people to know his capabilities, so he used brute force.

Black Panther was much heavier than Zhong Pinliang, but Lin Yi's kick was so powerful that it could have made a hole in a car, let alone a person. However, Lin Yi didn't want to cause serious injury in public, so he only wanted to teach Black Panther a lesson, not leave him crippled and unable to walk for the rest of his life.

Without a doubt, Black Panther let out a惨叫, fell face-first onto the school's concrete ground, and immediately had a bloody nose and a split lip...
