Ye Xiao looked at Cui Ji and could feel that the person before him was definitely not an ordinary individual. Although Ye Xiao could not yet discern how strong Cui Ji actually was, he could be certain that Cui Ji had attained a level, so Ye Xiao did not dare to take him lightly at all!
Cui Ji took a few steps forward and, at that moment, he sized up Ye Xiao as well. The strength Ye Xiao had just displayed obviously showed he was a trained fighter. However, Cui Ji did not think much of Ye Xiao, his disdain clear in the look in his eyes, apparently conveying to everyone that he was fully confident he could easily knock down Ye Xiao!
Cui Ji had his own reliance!
Things are differentiated as good and bad, and martial arts as high and low!
Through countless ages from ancient times to the present, martial arts had evolved to their pinnacle, thus giving rise to the Martial Arts World.
Practitioners in the Martial Arts World are called Martial Artists, and their strengths vary greatly, generally divided into four ranks, namely Heaven, Earth, Xuan, and Yellow, each with four stages: Early Stage, Middle Stage, Late Stage, and Pinnacle!
The Pinnacle of Heaven Rank possesses the strongest power, while an Early Stage Yellow Rank is considered a low-grade Martial Artist, yet even the lowest Martial Artists are remarkably powerful compared to ordinary people, able to easily fight thirty or forty healthy adults single-handedly.
And Cui Ji had just advanced to the Middle Stage of Yellow Rank half a month ago. He was a Martial Artist and was a rather well-known young Martial Artist in Minghai City's Martial Arts World. Reaching the Middle Stage of Yellow Rank at his age was indeed very remarkable!
Therefore, this was Cui Ji's reliance, his belief that he could easily make Ye Xiao kneel and beg for mercy. When Ye Xiao fought before, although fast on his feet, he had no particular moves to speak of and displayed no fluctuations of inner strength. Logically speaking, Ye Xiao should not be a Martial Artist!
Since he is not a Martial Artist, how could Cui Ji possibly fear Ye Xiao, especially when Ye Xiao is even younger than him!
"Little brother, if you apologize to Mr. Han, I could choose not to make a move," Cui Ji said to Ye Xiao, pretending to care about giving Han Fei face.
Ye Xiao raised an eyebrow and replied to Cui Ji, "Aren't you just trying to show off in front of Han Fei? Defeating me is your chance to do so. If you can't beat me, then you will have no face left to mix in public!"
Ye Xiao's words completely ignited the rage in Cui Ji's heart. Originally, Cui Ji wanted to mock Ye Xiao with words, but unexpectedly, before he could do so, he got a taste of his own medicine!
Cui Ji's expression darkened, and he said coldly to Ye Xiao, "You're courting death…"
Ye Xiao couldn't help but laugh out loud and said to Cui Ji, "Why all the fuss? Isn't it just about fighting in the end? Let's get on with it."
Cui Ji was even more annoyed, and then, he shot toward Ye Xiao like an arrow released from a bow!
Yes, he shot over with lightning speed. Han Fei and the others present couldn't even see clearly how Cui Ji rushed at Ye Xiao. Almost in the blink of an eye, Cui Ji was in front of Ye Xiao, his punches and kicks greeting Ye Xiao in a flash!
Cui Ji's initial plan was that in that instant as quick as lightning, Ye Xiao should have fallen down. After all, as a Middle Stage Yellow Rank Martial Artist, Cui Ji had used more than half of his strength, and it would have been absolutely no problem even against an Early Stage Yellow Rank Martial Artist. However, something strange happened!
Ye Xiao did not fall down as Cui Ji expected but quickly stepped back, swiftly parrying all of Cui Ji's attacks. Each punch from Cui Ji was blocked by Ye Xiao's hands, and every kick was slapped away!
The faster Cui Ji attacked, the more Ye Xiao was able to defuse the attacks with even greater speed!
As Cui Ji's attack speed escalated, so did his anxiety. Before the confrontation with Ye Xiao, Cui Ji had been very disdainful of him, but now, after exchanging blows, Cui Ji became somewhat fearful, because he found that Ye Xiao was definitely not as simple as he appeared to be; it was as if his strength was growing. Cui Ji intensified his attacks, yet Ye Xiao's defensive power also increased!
Cui Ji bellowed fiercely and with a push against the ground, he suddenly retreated three or four meters away!
Ye Xiao did not pursue, instead, he looked at Cui Ji with a smile and said, "Not bad strength!"
Cui Ji looked at Ye Xiao with a serious expression and said, "It seems I have somewhat underestimated you, but I have not used my full strength yet!"
Ye Xiao responded, "You should hurry up and use your full strength. I don't want to be stuck like this!"
Ye Xiao's words were indeed true. Zhan Bo was still lying on the ground, and although Ye Xiao had checked and Zhan Bo was not in mortal danger, the situation could not be delayed. If his injuries became more serious, it would be very bad, potentially affecting him for life if any chronic conditions developed!
Cui Ji's expression turned ice-cold in an instant as he looked at Ye Xiao and said, "You're forcing my hand. If you die today, don't blame me!"
After saying that, Cui Ji's fists clenched tightly, and he ran swiftly toward Ye Xiao, but now, Ye Xiao saw that Cui Ji's fists had a faint energy body around them, invisible to common people, visible only to Martial Artists who had reached at least the low-grade Yellow Rank, and these energy bodies were actually what is commonly known as Inner Strength!
Ye Xiao saw that Cui Ji's fist was actually charged with Inner Strength. Clearly, this man was without doubt a Martial Artist, so Ye Xiao dared not take the slightest bit of carelessness. Moreover, Cui Ji's words just now had made it clear that he intended to use full strength, and to use Inner Strength to deal with Ye Xiao!
However, at this moment, Ye Xiao did not dodge at all, his expression utterly serious as he clenched his fist tight and fixed his eyes on Cui Ji!
Cui Ji couldn't help but feel secretly astonished when he saw Ye Xiao at this time because he actually saw two flames in Ye Xiao's eyes, which were within his two eyes!
Cui Ji couldn't believe it and thought it must be an illusion, but still, his fist flew quickly towards Ye Xiao!
Ye Xiao's expression was serious, and within his heart he cried out, "Sunrise Convergence!"
To everyone's surprise, just as Cui Ji almost reached him, Ye Xiao actually reached out to grab Cui Ji's fist!
Cui Ji laughed at this sight because he hadn't seen any part of Ye Xiao's body where Inner Strength was visible, or to say, it simply wasn't there at all!
And at this moment, Ye Xiao actually went to grab Cui Ji's fist, all of which indicated that Ye Xiao was not a Martial Artist and also a person unskilled in fighting!
But...
Cui Ji guessed wrong!
The instant Ye Xiao's hand met Cui Ji's fist, Cui Ji knew he had made a mistake!
Because, the moment Cui Ji's fist touched Ye Xiao's hand, Cui Ji felt his Inner Strength go out of control. The Inner Strength that had been concentrated in his fist dissipated instantly upon touching Ye Xiao's hand!
And in that moment of astonishment, Ye Xiao had already grabbed Cui Ji's fist and twisted it violently, accompanied by a crunching sound, Cui Ji's face instantly turned deep red as his fist hung limply!
Dislocated!
Ye Xiao had actually twisted Cui Ji's wrist out of its socket, and to think, it was done so effortlessly, causing a dislocation so easily!
At that moment, Cui Ji felt excruciating pain in his wrist, and he fully understood that Ye Xiao had not shown Inner Strength until that instant because Ye Xiao's strength was far superior to Cui Ji's, able to defeat him without even needing to gather his Inner Strength!
"Now, if you quickly get it set back in place, it might still be saved. If you don't rush it, I think you won't be able to use your fist to hit anyone in the future!" Ye Xiao walked towards Zhan Bo with an intense smile on his face, appearing quite at ease!
Liu Xinlei and Han Fei, unaware of everything, immediately went over to Cui Ji, with Han Fei asking Cui Ji, "What's the matter, Cui Ji? Why did you stop fighting?"
Cui Ji really felt like grinding his teeth in frustration as he swallowed his anger. What could he say? Admit that he was outclassed and had been beaten to such a state? Even having his wrist dislocated?
"Scram!" Of course, that wasn't what Cui Ji said. Although he was a Martial Artist, he did not dare speak to Han Fei that way!
So, it was Ye Xiao who had said "Scram," and as soon as he spoke, everyone jumped in surprise!
Including Han Fei!
Of course, Han Fei didn't want to leave. He looked at Cui Ji, but Cui Ji was simply lowering his head, his face red, while enduring the acute pain in his wrist!
As reluctant as he was, Han Fei still gestured and led his people away!
Han Fei knew better than anyone that if even Cui Ji was defeated, the others were even less of a match. They would just be cannon fodder against Ye Xiao, unable to solve the root problem!
Left with no choice, Han Fei led his people away. This was the first time Han Fei had left the dilapidated building not in a blustering manner!
Now, only Ye Xiao and Zhan Bo remained in the broken classroom. By now, Zhan Bo was in a semi-conscious state. Ye Xiao helped Zhan Bo sit up, then sat down cross-legged in front of him, slowly closing his eyes, his hands quickly making motions. If any Martial Artist were here, they would be extremely surprised because there were faint orange-red Inner Strength fluctuations around Ye Xiao!
Martial Artists' sensory systems become extremely sensitive when using Inner Strength, and at this time, Ye Xiao could clearly perceive the entire dilapidated building with his Spiritual Sense. He noticed that Han Fei had left along with Cui Ji and the others.
In his heart, Ye Xiao was using his supreme Internal Cultivation Method, the Nine Yang Divine Skill, while thinking to himself, "Although Zhan Bo's governor and conception vessels have been inadvertently opened due to the beatings, his internal organs have suffered varying degrees of damage. If I want Zhan Bo to recover quickly, there is only one way, and that is to transfer Inner Strength into him, to rapidly heal the internal injuries!"
Ye Xiao's hands were positioned about ten centimeters from Zhan Bo and with a sudden push, Zhan Bo's body involuntarily jolted. Following that, Ye Xiao's Nine Yang True Qi began to slowly transfer into Zhan Bo's body. Zhan Bo, whose face was pale from the beating, now started to regain some color!
