Dragon Emperor, Martial God

Tie Xiaohu resembled a black tower as he sped towards Ling Yun under the sun, bringing a gust of wind along with him!

Just like a wolf stalking its prey, his eyes were locked on his target. His face glistened with pre-battle excitement!

Ling Yun suddenly turned around! “Eh, this guy seems rather skilled!” A hint of surprise flashed through Ling Yun’s eyes as he looked at Tie Xiaohu, who was dashing towards him, with great interest!

Tang Meng heard something and looked up. He got up the moment he spotted Tie Xiaohu and yelled at him, “Tie Xiaohu, what are you doing here?!”

Tie Xiaohu ran like the wind towards Ling Yun and came to a halt before casually chuckling at Tang Meng. “I’m here to fight, duh!”

Ling Yun waved off Tang Meng before inspecting Tie Xiaohu from head to toe. Ling Yun chuckled lightly, “Fight? Who do you want to fight?”

Tie Xiaohu fixed his eyes on Ling Yun, his sharp gaze piercing through Ling Yun. He pouted and chuckled, “You of course!”

Tu Gang, who was lying on the ground, gulped a mouthful of blood the moment he saw Tie Xiaohu approaching before choking out, “Xiaohu, the Green Dragon Gang has been defeated today. We’re counting on you now!”

Without looking back, Tie Xiaohu uttered coldly, “You do you, I’ll do me. My fights have nothing to do with you!”

Ling Yun was amused by Tie Xiaohu and thought to himself, What an interesting guy with such a straightforward personality. I like him!

Tie Xiaohu kept his gaze locked on Ling Yun’s eyes and pointed his finger. “These people were all defeated by you just now, right?”

There was no reason for Ling Yun to lie to him, thus, he smiled as he nodded. “That’s right, I took them down. Why’d you ask?”

A hint of admiration flashed through Tie Xiaohu’s eyes as he chuckled, “That’s great, you’re now qualified to fight me!”

Tie Xiaohu, a Qingshui High Grade 12 Class 4 student. Even though it had only been two years since Brother Kun of the Green Dragon Gang took him under his wing, Tie Xiaohu quickly rose up the ranks. Among all of Brother Kun’s underlings, Tie Xiaohu was easily the most capable fighter, only second to Brother Kun’s bodyguards!

This kid was nearly invincible. It was as if his skin was made of copper and his bones were made of steel. Apart from being a natural born fighter, the reason why Brother Kun began recognizing his worth was that Tie Xiaohu fought his battles without holding back at all. Thus, not only did Brother Kun arrange for both of his personal bodyguards to coach Tie Xiaohu in his martial arts and wrestling techniques, Brother Kun himself would occasionally give him personal tips and advice. Some members of the Green Dragon Gang even speculated that in ten years, Tie Xiaohu might take up the mantle after Brother Kun retires, thus becoming the successor to the Green Dragon Gang!

Tie Xiaohu’s martial arts and wrestling techniques seemed very haphazard, possibly due to him having Brother Kun and his mysterious personal bodyguards as his coaches. He had studied various forms of martial arts, including Shaolin Changquan, Bruce Lee’s Jeet Kune Do, Taekwondo, and even Muay Thai which emphasizes on killing the opponent in one move. Brother Kun regarded him as a martial arts prodigy since he was capable of mastering any form of martial arts immediately upon learning and was skilled in using knives and staffs as weapons.

When Brother Kun had been expanding his territories in Jiangnan, there was another powerful mobster from a different province who had disrespected Brother Kun. The moment Tie Xiaohu caught wind of it, he headed straight towards the gang’s base of operations alone, armed with a staff in his left hand and a knife in his right hand. By the end of it all, Tie Xiaohu dragged the boss all the way back to Qingshui City just so he could kneel and apologize to Brother Kun!

Tie Xiaohu clearly displayed his strength, capabilities, and wisdom!

This was also why Gou Junfa was willing to pay 20,000 dollars just for Tie Xiaohu to beat Ling Yun up!

Tie Xiaohu was worth the price!

Tie Xiaohu was recognized as one of the Big Four Bullies of Qingshui High because everyone knew that Tie Xiaohu is good at fighting!

Even Gou Junfa had to address Tie Xiaohu as ‘Big Brother Hu’ with the utmost respect!

Ling Yun raised his chin and let out a surprised “Oh”. He chuckled at Tie Xiaohu, “So, I’m qualified to fight you? Not bad, not bad indeed. We can have a fight, but…”

Tie Xiaohu furrowed his brows. “But what?”

Ling Yun let out a light-hearted chuckle once again. “But there has got to be a winner and a loser in a fight, right? What if you lose?”

Tie Xiaohu looked right into Ling Yun’s eyes with a piercing stare as he uttered confidently, “I won’t lose!”

Ling Yun shook his head. “Let’s just assume that you do, what would you do then?”

Tie Xiaohu sniggered and replied, “I won’t lose. I’m the one initiating the fight. If I really do lose, I’ll obviously be at your disposal. What other possible outcomes are there?”

Ling Yun smirked as he replied, “How about this? I don’t care about why you want to fight me. If I lose, I’ll be at your disposal, but if you lose, you’ll have to work for me, how does that sound?”

Tie Xiaohu looked at Ling Yun with curiosity. “Don’t you know that I’m under Brother Kun? Aren’t you scared of Brother Kun coming after you if I work for you?”

Ling Yun’s face darkened. “This Brother Kun that you speak of, he’s the leader of the Green Dragon Gang, right?”

Tie Xiaohu nodded affirmatively, “That’s right.”

Ling Yun smiled as he said, “Alright, the members of Green Dragon Gang came to my school and tried to pick a fight with me today. I must pay Brother Kun a visit to discuss the compensations when I’m free. Thus, you don’t have to worry about Brother Kun coming after me!”

Who was Ling Yun? Ling Yun was someone who would never put himself at a disadvantage! It had been good enough that he did not go after the Green Dragon Gang, but now, Green Dragon Gang was the one coming after him. If he did not pick a fight with them, he would not be Ling Yun!

Tie Xiaohu burst into laughter as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. “Very well, I guess the spoiled brat with the surname ‘Gou’ was right after all. Not only did Ling Yun become skilled in fighting, he also grew a pair. Since you’re so brave, I’ll guarantee that Brother Kun won’t be coming after you for today’s incident!”

“Let’s begin!”

Tie Xiaohu did not want to waste any more time chit chatting with Ling Yun. He lowered his center of gravity and got into a horse stance. He then used the Black Tiger Heart Claw move and threw a punch at Ling Yun with his left fist at lightning speed!

A simple punch with nothing fancy to it, but it was still quick and deadly!

Of course, Ling Yun dodged the punch easily. He chuckled, “Your offense and defense are not bad, unlike those idiots who just charge brainlessly!”

As if Tie Xiaohu had expected his punch to miss, he twisted around and his enormous yet flexible body moved closer towards Ling Yun. His broad shoulders were about to collide with Ling Yun’s body and his right elbow was aimed at Ling Yun’s left ribcage at the same time!

A Muay Thai elbow strike. If any ordinary person tried to take on Tie Xiaohu’s move, he would definitely end up fracturing his ribs!

However, Ling Yun chuckled yet again before shifting backward nimbly, easily dodging Tie Xiaohu’s elbow strike.

“Nice dodge!” Tie Xiaohu couldn’t help but praise Ling Yun out loud. However, his attacks kept coming. The moment his right leg came into contact with the ground, his left leg swept out like a windmill towards Ling Yun’s face!

Ling Yun thought to himself. This kid probably focuses mainly on his legs during martial arts training. Ling Yun was actually itching to fight back. He really wanted to land a kick on Tie Xiaohu’s right leg as he crouched down to dodge his kicks, but Ling Yun chose to hold back.

Ling Yun wanted to observe Tie Xiaohu’s skills and capabilities. Ling Yun quickly took another step back, successfully dodging Tie Xiaohu’s kick that he was so confident in!

Tie Xiaohu remained calm and collected as he saw Ling Yun dodging yet another attack. His left leg had just touched the ground when his right leg swept backward immediately, aiming at Ling Yun’s temple!

“About time,” Ling Yun said to himself. This time, he did not dodge his attack, but instead raised his hand and grabbed onto Tie Xiaohu’s ankle!

D*mn, this kid’s legs are really big, his ankles alone are probably as thick as someone else’s calves! Perfect for martial arts!

Ling Yun praised secretly as he applied a bit more on strength on Tie Xiaohu’s ankle, before swinging his arm 360 degrees!

“Woah…” Tie Xiaohu’s 97kg body got hurled across the air by Ling Yun and crashed onto the ground about 7 to 8 meters away!

“D*mn. Ling Yun is actually that strong?!”

“Isn’t that just amazing? He’s invincible!”

“War God, definitely a War God! Ling Yun is too strong, Tie Xiaohu got trashed!”

“How is this possible?!”

Right now, the girls who were afraid of missing out on their lessons began returning to their classrooms one after another. Majority of the boys were still in the corridors, watching the fight between Ling Yun and Tie Xiaohu.

After Ling Yun dodged a punch, an elbow strike, and a kick from Tie Xiaohu, he managed to fling Tie Xiaohu 7 to 8 meters away with one single move. The high school students in the corridors are in awe!

Tie Xiaohu fell to the ground and did a kip up immediately to get back on his feet. His gaze at Ling Yun seemed a little more intense now!

What was Tie Xiaohu’s biggest advantage? His strength! It could be said that Tie Xiaohu was capable of replicating the moves that Ling Yun had used while he was single-handedly fighting the 30-odd members of the Green Dragon Gang. Tie Xiaohu was also able to utilize his explosive strength to fling Tu Gang 2 meters into the air. Of course, he would have to be standing upright. He would not be able to fling Tu Gang into the air while crouching down like Ling Yun had done.

But now, Ling Yun was demonstrating that he was at least twice as strong as Tie Xiaohu, perhaps even more than that!

Ling Yun had been able to casually fling his 97kg body across 8 meters. Tie Xiaohu knew that he was definitely unable to pull that off.

Even though Tie Xiaohu’s face and body were completely covered in mud, he did not wipe it off. Instead, he marched steadily towards Ling Yun.

“You’re good! I underestimated you!” Not only did Tie Xiaohu’s gaze at Ling Yun intensify, there was also a hint of respect!!

“Still want to fight?” Ling Yun dusted off his hands as he smirked at Tie Xiaohu.

Ling Yun now knew that Tie Xiaohu was a good fighter. He also knew if it had been Tie Xiaohu who was up against the 30-odd members of the Green Dragon Gang, he would have won. However, he would have had to utilize all of his strength and he would definitely have gotten injured!

But for Ling Yun, fighting the Green Dragon Gang members was a piece of cake. He did not even have to utilize 1% of his abilities. Thus, in Ling Yun’s eyes, the difference between Tie Xiaohu and the Green Dragon Gang members was equivalent to the difference between a queen bee and an ordinary bee.

He could easily squish both of them with his finger!

“Of course we’re still fighting!” As those words left his mouth, Tie Xiaohu began dashing towards him. His enormous body was about to ram into Ling Yun!

At the same time, he extended his abnormally long arms to form a weird pose that allowed him to attack and defend at the same time. He wanted to have close combat with Ling Yun this time!

“Hey kid, you sure you want to pull this trick?” Ling Yun chuckled as he secretly used his Thousand Miles Godly steps to sneak up behind Tie Xiaohu. He then raised his leg and landed a solid kick on Tie Xiaohu’s butt!

*Plop!* Ling Yun’s kick sent Tie Xiaohu flying 4 to 5 meters away. Tie Xiaohu was unable to stop himself in his tracks and fell face first onto the ground!

“D*mn, Tie Xiaohu is nothing more than a child before Ling Yun. Ling Yun is straight up messing with him!”

“Ling Yun is just way too amazing! He’s so cool!”

“Didn’t expect Ling Yun to lie low for 3 years just to explode in one morning! He’s so strong!”

Looking at Tie Xiaohu being toyed at by Ling Yun, the students of Qingshui High finally believed that Ling Yun, the man of the moment in Qingshui High, was a student par excellence!
