Ninth Master personally came with five of his underlings.

"Brother Shi, where's that blind fool? Let's teach him a lesson first, daring to mess with Reincarnation's people in Huadu, hmph."

Actually, Ninth Master is just another young thug with no proper education, wearing a faded leather jacket, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle, and a face full of arrogance.

He particularly likes the rich kids at school, dumb and flush with cash. These types never venture into the real world, yet they need someone like him, and just a bit of swagger is enough to keep them in line.

"He's just up ahead." Shi Geng pointed towards Lin Hai through the small woods.

"Oh? Just a lousy substitute teacher? Call him over, let's all take care of him." Ninth Master took out a cigarette, and a minion by his side immediately lit it for him.

"This time I also brought some snakes, perfect for when the beauties get scared, and you can play the hero saving the damsel in distress." Ninth Master thought himself brilliant with a conspiratorial gleam in his eye.

"Snakes? They aren't poisonous, right?"

"Shouldn't be, medical science is advanced these days, even if you get bitten it's not a big deal, you can also suck the venom out for them, imagine if they're bitten on their chest or inner thigh, you know what I mean." Ninth Master let out a sleazy laugh.

"Hehe, sounds good."

Shi Geng excitedly rubbed his hands together, his eyes nearly squinting shut.

Once the beauties are bitten by the snakes, then he could logically make his move.

Those girls look so fine, top-notch figures too, if he could taste their charm, tsk tsk, even thinking about it makes him 'Shi Geng' instantly.

He walked towards Lin Hai, thinking, "Just now you dared ignore me? Soon you'll be begging on your knees crying and then these girls, time to have a field day, haha."

Approaching Lin Hai, Shi Geng cleared his throat to interrupt the conversation, a mischievous smile on his lips, "Teacher Lin, there are some acquaintances over there who want to have a chat with you."

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, then saw something in Shi Geng's eyes.

Hmph, this kid wants to play dirty?

"Acquaintances?"

"Yes, acquaintances, you'll know once you go there." Shi Geng coaxed persuasively.

Lin Hai smiled, stood up, "Alright, let's see what acquaintances."

Dog King also saw the sinister look in Shi Geng's eyes, stood up, "I'll come with you."

Shi Geng laughed, someone really isn't afraid of dying, this truck driver just now seemed quite pretentious too, perfect to clean up together.

"Brother-in-law, are you okay? This Shi Geng is usually very malicious and knows some scoundrels from the streets, you need to be careful." Ruoshuang reminded.

Lin Hai smiled and nodded.

"We'll come with you too, Brother Lin." Xiao Jiji and Wei Shengjin also stood up.

Lin Hai gestured to stop them, "No need, I'll just see an old acquaintance. Why involve yourselves? Take care of Ruoshuang and Shuishui, what if there are bad guys around?"

Xiao Jiji and Wei Shengjin suddenly realized, right, what if Shi Geng uses this chance to draw them away? Although it seems his IQ may not be high enough for such schemes, it's still better to be cautious.

"Heh, you've thought this through pretty well, worthy of a teacher indeed." Shi Geng smirked secretly.

"Let's go."

"Lead the way."

Ruoshuang and Tao Shuishui weren't too worried, Ruoshuang had seen Brother Lin's prowess, still vividly remembering how he single-handedly beat up a dozen thugs.

As for Tao Shuishui, she was even less concerned. With Dabang Lin's Heavenly Creation Finger, he could easily subdue any unwary foes.

Arriving at the edge of the woods, Shi Geng sneered, "Teacher Lin, why are you so awesome?"

"Do I?" Lin Hai smiled and replied, "You wouldn't be gathering some street thugs trying to intimidate me, right? I don't remember offending you."

"Teacher Lin, I really dislike you. Why do all those beauties flock around you?" Shi Geng ripped off his façade of pretense.

"You're too young to be so fierce," Lin Hai shook his head.

All this, just out of envy and jealousy? Are you really going to ruin yourself?

What will you become when you grow up?

"Little buddy, are you planning to challenge me one-on-one?" Lin Hai asked with a playful smile, Dog King too sneered beside him, having seen Brother Lin's strength before, even the top fighters couldn't escape death, just a few small punks, are they kidding?

"Yeah, one-on-one," Shi Geng said, feeling suddenly overwhelmingly confident, as if he was challenging the top tough guy in Huadu, Reincarnation Brother.

Then he added, "But it's not me against you one-on-one, it's all of us against just you."

Finishing his words, he clapped his hands, "Ninth Master, come on out, these are the two clueless ones."

As the words fell, a wooden stick flew out of the bushes, heading straight for Lin Hai's head.

Lin Hai stood still, not moving an inch, still smiling at Shi Geng.

Dog King casually reached out, intercepted the stick mid-air, exerted a little force, and with a snap, broke it into two pieces.

Meanwhile, five or six thugs emerged from the bushes, their eyes fierce, and sinister smiles hanging on their corners of their lips, surrounding Lin Hai and Dog King.

"Where's Ninth Master?" Shi Geng asked puzzled, why isn't he here?

One of the followers chuckled and said, "The Ninth Bro is taking a dump, he'll be here soon."

Shi Geng waved his hand, "Let's not talk about such gross stuff, everyone attack, take them down."

Several of them charged at Lin Hai.

Shi Geng followed excitedly behind the thugs, ready to join in later.

Lin Hai casually picked a brick from the ground with his foot, and flung it.

With a whoosh, the brick flew at an incredible speed.

The charging thugs didn't even have time to react before the brick hit their knees.

"Thud—thud—thud..."

"Ah—"

The sound of bodies falling and screams almost occurred simultaneously.

With one brick and powerful force, all five or six thugs were knocked down at once.

The previously arrogant tough little thugs were instantly overwhelmed.

"Is that all?"

Lin Hai asked with a smile.

Shi Geng's jaw almost dropped.

What... what's going on? Is the substitute teacher this awesome?

From the bushes, Ninth Master also had an extremely refreshed expression, tying his belt while walking out, holding a sack that seemed to hold a dozen snakes.

Seeing Ninth Master coming out, Shi Geng quickly shouted, "Ninth Master, call for reinforcement, we've hit a hard spot."

Ninth Master, who was positioned right behind Lin Hai and Dog King, snorted coldly, and said in a deep voice, "Both of you, being a affiliate of Reincarnation, dare you reveal your identities?"

Hearing the word 'Reincarnation,' Dog King slowly turned around, and said, "Huadu, Dog King."

Clatter—

Ninth Master's hands quivered, the sack holding snakes dropped to the ground, the snakes ran out but he no longer paid attention.

Then, with a "thud," Ninth Master felt his knees soften and knelt on the ground, beads of sweat the size of beans pouring down his face.

Shi Geng was also staring at Dog King, his face shocked and disbelieving, and murmured as if stupefied, "No wonder he looked somewhat familiar, it's Dog... Dog... Dog..." he stuttered, unable to continue.
