"Gou Junfa begged Ling Yun to let him off today!" the news spread like a virus around Qingshui High rapidly, taking less than a day for everyone to know about it . They had never been as dumbfounded, nor flabbergasted, to such an extent before .

Yesterday night, Ling Yun stepped on Wei Tiangan and slapped Jia Meng in the hostel; in the morning, he ran 4 . 4 kilometers while carrying a sandbag . In the afternoon, he disgraced Little Gambling G.o.d, Tang Meng and infuriated one of the school's belles, Cao Shanshan; later in the day, he recited seven chapters from the History textbooks without a single mistake .

Ling Yun! Ling Yun! Ling Yun! Ling Yun again! Everything was about Ling Yun now! In a blink of an eye, he had become the most prominent name in Qingshui High! However, nothing would be able to compare to the shocking news that was to come after school!

Who was Gou Junfa exactly?

His father, Gou Liancheng was a local tyc.o.o.n . He had a part in almost every sector such as property, hospitality, entertainment and transportation of goods . In the past two years, Gou Liancheng saw an opportunity in the soaring prices of real estate and pushed hard to buy into the industry, making him a multimillionaire in no time . Even the ongoing building of the two Staff Hostels in Qingshui High was a project started and invested in by Gou Liancheng .

This was the reason why Gou Junfa dared to be as arrogant as he was, as he could do anything he liked to anyone without having to worry about the repercussions . He would punch whoever he wanted to and date whichever girl he wished to . There was nothing anyone could do to make him think twice about his actions . He truly was the embodiment of the wealthy entrepreneur's spoiled young ruffian .

But today was different, Gou Junfa had been put in his place when he was thoroughly beaten and ridiculed by Ling Yun until he had to beg for his forgiveness .

This happened right after lessons had finished in Qingshui High . Moreover, it was a Friday, so the cafeteria, basketball court and football court were full of people . Hence, the news of Ling Yun beating up Gou Junfa spread to every corner of the school in no time .

Zhang Dong, who had been playing basketball at the basketball court, was shocked when he heard the news . He shook his head as he chuckled, "No way, the more this spreads the more ridiculous it becomes . No way Ling Yun is that fierce…" However, after listening to how vividly the other students described the news, he decided he had to see it for himself . He threw aside his basketball and headed straight back to the cla.s.sroom .

If Ling Yun had really beaten up Gou Junfa, Ling Yun was going to be in deep trouble!

Chan Hanlin was getting his food at the canteen when he overheard some students talking about what just happened . Dumbfounded, the lunchbox he was holding fell onto his foot and then the floor with a resounding *clang!*, but he was too shocked to take notice . After he snapped out of his shock, Chan Hanlin hastily bent over to clear his food up before hurrying back to the cla.s.sroom .

On the other hand, Wei Tiangan of Hostel 305 did not get food from the canteen . His body was covered in muddy water after being beaten up by Ling Yun the previous day and up till now, he dared not to clean it off . Seeing that Ling Yun had not returned, Wei Tiangan was about to seize the opportunity to go for a shower when he heard the commotion coming from outside!

"Big news! Big news! Did you guys hear that Ling Yun has beaten the school bully, Gou Junfa, to a pulp?"

"What?!" Upon hearing this, Wei Tiangan stumbled hastily out of the shower, dressed only in his underwear .

"What did you say, w.a.n.g Yong? Are you saying Ling Yun beat up Gou Jungfa? Are u delusional?" Wei Tiangan asked, with a hint of paleness and a look of disbelief written on his face .

"Wei Tiangan! Why would I lie to you?" w.a.n.g Yong looked pitifully at him, thinking to himself . After beating you up last night, Ling Yun still went on to beat up even Gou Junfa . Now, to everyone, you just looked like you really overestimated yourself!

"Who? Where? When?" Wei Tiangan hurriedly asked w.a.n.g Yong .

"They just finished their tussle, in our cla.s.sroom! After we were dismissed, Gou Junfa walked into our cla.s.s to find trouble with Ling Yun . He only managed to say a few words before he was beaten up! Two punches and a kick and Gou Junfa was floored! He didn't even have a chance to retaliate!" Though this was also what w.a.n.g Yong had heard by word of mouth, it wasn't too far from the truth .

After hearing the words "beaten up" coming from w.a.n.g Yong's mouth, a look of humiliation and embarra.s.sment was written all over Wei Tiangan's face . He thought to himself . Why does Ling Yun like to beat up people so much?

But after he thought about what a big bully Gou Junfa was, a look of excitement spread across his face .

He was, however, a tad disappointed that he wouldn't have the chance to see Ling Yun get beaten to a pulp by Gou Junfa and Lu Chengtian .

However, the news that Ling Yun beat up Gou Junfa only served to trigger Wei Tiangan further about the ridicule he had been subjected to by Ling Yun .

Hmph, let's see how far your arrogance and ignorance can carry you, Ling Yun! You've surely come to a dead end when you trifled with Gou Junfa! Now I will enjoy seeing how you suffer!

Wei Tiangan's face looked increasingly menacing and excited as these thoughts ran through his mind . He could not wait for Gou Junfa to bring his army of brothers to deal with Ling Yun, or resort to underhand means to remove him from Qingshui High .

He happily danced his way back into the shower in his underwear as he sang the song, 'Today is a great day'!

Tang Meng, the Little Gambling G.o.d, who had been discussing with Zhao Lei how to get money from Xie Junyan, was surprised by the news . He had been pondering whether he should warn Ling Yun to be wary of Gou Junfa and Lu Chengtian finding him to cause trouble . He did raise this up to Ling Yun that in the noon, as he did not want his crush, also the sister of Ling Yun, to be worried .

However, when he was abruptly notified of the situation by hearing from pa.s.sing students, he immediately jumped up and exclaimed, "What?! Oh my gosh, this is no laughing matter!"

Tang Meng instinctively ran towards Grade 12 Cla.s.s 6, thinking, Ling Yun, my future brother-in-law! I was benevolent enough to forget about you taking a thousand dollars from me, but now you actually had the b.a.l.l.s to beat up Gou Junfa and take nine thousand dollars from him?! Even if you're tired of living, this isn't the way to go!

"Boss, when shall we go ask Xie Junyan for money?" Zhao Lei queried from behind .

"There's such a dire situation at hand and you still want to ask for money?! Settle your own dinner today, don't wait up on me!" Tang Meng shouted back to Zhao Lei as he ran towards the cla.s.sroom, not looking back once .

Inside the cla.s.sroom of Grade 12 Cla.s.s 6 .

Ling Yun was sitting in his chair, counting the notes in his hands with a contented look on his face . "Hmm . . . it's really nine thousand dollars! I doubt that b.a.s.t.a.r.d would prank me anyway . " Adding the eleven thousand he had collected earlier today, he was twenty thousand dollars richer . Ling Yun nodded in satisfaction .

"I definitely need to get acupuncture needles, I just don't know where to find them . . . I also need to buy two sets of sports attires, two pairs of running shoes, as well as weights for the body and ankle weights…" Ling Yun thought aloud as he used his fingers to check off his mental notes . "I need to buy some nice pieces of clothing for Ning Lingyu as well! If my sister wore the same clothes as Cao Shanshan, she would look a million times better than Cao Shanshan…"

Had Cao Shanshan been around to hear what Ling Yun said, she would have surely thrown up blood!

"Not to forget about getting a phone for her too, so that she will be able to contact our mother conveniently . . . phones, are they made from the latest technology? My ability to transmit sounds a thousand miles away is more resounding and effective though . . . " In his spare time, Ling Yun liked to repeatedly compare his abilities from the Cultivation World to the most advanced technology present in this world .

Thinking of how their mother slogged her life out at the clinic every day, scrimped and saved for every meal, just to give the two of them education, Ling Yun felt a sudden warmth embracing his body . To be able to still remember so much about his mother and sister, the late Ling Yun must have placed them at the highest level of concern .

"Oh, and I have to discuss with Lingyu on what present to get for mum when we go back home tomorrow . . . Looks like twenty thousand dollars is actually not enough!" Ling Yun snickered, as he thought if only there were more bullies for me to get money from!

It looked like Ling Yun was using the bullies who came looking for trouble as a means of generating income!

Ling Yun gazed hopefully at the cla.s.sroom door, in antic.i.p.ation of another bully to come find trouble with him, or in his eyes, another money making opportunity!

Lo and behold, someone really turned up at the door! However, Ling Yun was left disappointed as all he saw was the tall and lean bamboo pole, Zhang Dong .

Zhang Dong rushed into the cla.s.sroom, taking huge strides towards Ling Yun . He leaned over the desk, staring at Ling Yun and questioned, "Hey, did you really beat up Gou Junfa today?"

"Huh? No, I did not . He must have knocked into a wall," Ling Yun snickered as he stuffed his notes into the pocket of his s.h.i.+rt .

Zhang Dong seemed anxious . He leaned forward to Ling Yun's face, frustratedly asking, "I don't have time for your nonsense . Tell me right now, did you beat up Gou Junfa?"

Looking at how anxious Zhang Dong was, Ling Yun thought to himself, this guy is really something! Ling Yun nodded his head while keeping his smile on his face .

"D*mn! You're a savage!" Zhang Dong unwittingly blurted out a vulgarity and gave Ling Yun a thumbs up . "You're still able to laugh?" Zhang Dong said .

"Why can't I laugh? I'm not the victim!" Ling Yun's smile became wider and brighter, patting Zhang Dong's shoulder in a bid to calm him down .

Zhang Dong was speechless as he turned around and sat on his seat . "Do you know who you have just a.s.saulted?" he asked weakly .

"Of course I know! It is none other than Little Hook!", Ling Yun made an effort to introduce the nickname he had given to Gou Junfa .

"Little Hook?! Pfft…" Ling Yun had to move aside to avoid having Zhang Dong spit blood onto him .

"Hahahaha . . . I'm talking about his background! Don't tell me you do not know about it?" Zhang Dong's voice was hoa.r.s.e from laughing so hysterically at Ling Yun's humor .

"Nope, all I know is that he looks like a rich person…" Ling Yun replied nonchalantly .

"Not just money, my friend! Influence as well! His father is Qingshui city's number one tyc.o.o.n! He can get money and power, whenever and wherever he wants to . You're going to be in big trouble for beating his son up!" Zhang Dong exclaimed .

Just as Ling Yun was about to reply, another student entered the cla.s.sroom . It was the minuscule and fragile-looking Chai Hanlin .

He was sweating profusely from running all the way to the cla.s.sroom . He went straight to Ling Yun side, with a worried look in his eyes . After seeing that Ling Yun was free from injury, he calmed down .

"I . . . I heard . . . you . . . had . . . Gou Junfa beaten . . . to a pulp? Is . . . that true?" Chai Hanlin asked with concern in his voice . He was panting vigorously as he asked, without even stopping to wipe his sweat .

"It's all true!" Zhang Dong replied before Ling Yun even had the chance to .

Ling Yun silently looked at his two cla.s.smates who showed so much concern for him . With a slight smile on his face, he nodded .

Not everyone in this world is cold-blooded .
