Han Fei watched as Zhang Zihao displayed unlimited arrogance and couldn't help but laugh silently. Zhang Zihao, relying on his family's wealth, regarded no one, so why should Han Fei stop him if he wanted to go head-to-head with Ye Xiao?

Han Fei glanced at the security office and then said to Zhang Zihao, "I'm just reminding you to avoid acting impulsively and suffering for it."

Had Han Fei not mentioned this, it would have been fine, but as soon as he did, Zhang Zihao burst into laughter and coldly said, "In the Third Academy, no one yet has made me suffer a loss. Today, I'll let you witness the power of Zhang Zihao in the Third Academy."

After Zhang Zihao spoke, he pulled over a lackey beside him and whispered something into his ear. The lackey immediately nodded and quickly ran into the school.

Seeing the smirk on Zhang Zihao's face, full of confidence, Han Fei inwardly delighted. Zhang Zihao was playing with fire, but it was unknown how it would end.

At that moment, three people walked out from the security office, led by Ye Xiao, with Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen following behind.

Originally, Ye Xiao intended to leave directly since his business at the Third Academy was done. Moreover, it wasn't yet time for class dismissal. If it had been, he might have run into Qin Yulu around the campus, but now that seemed unlikely.

As Ye Xiao was about to leave the security office, he realized something was off, because Zhang Zihao, leading a group of Third Academy students, had surrounded the door of the security office. If Ye Xiao and his companions wanted to leave, these people would have to give way, but was it that easy to make them do so?

Upon seeing the situation, Sun Yuze immediately looked towards Han Fei, the only person he recognized in the crowd.

"Han Fei, what is this supposed to mean?" asked Sun Yuze, glaring at Han Fei.

Han Fei glanced at Sun Yuze and didn't dare underestimate him, after all, Sun Yuze's father was the second-in-command in Minghai City. Han Fei chuckled and said, "I'm just a lackey here, okay? I'm just standing on the side watching. Also, Ah Hao, I think it's better not to hurt the camaraderie."

Already furious, Zhang Zihao became even more annoyed when he saw Han Fei behaving indecisively, as both Chen Ming and Han Fei were usually fierce characters. Why did they now all seem like shrinking turtles?

This attempt by Han Fei to mediate not only failed to extinguish Zhang Zihao's anger but added fuel to the fire, and Zhang Zihao was furiously raging.

"Damn it, just stand there then," Zhang Zihao shot a glare at Han Fei and immediately pointed at Ye Xiao, saying, "You're Ye Xiao, right? Kid, you think the incident this morning is over just because you ganged up in greater numbers? If it hadn't been for my lack of people, how could I have been at a disadvantage?"

Ganged up in greater numbers?

Ye Xiao, hearing Zhang Zihao's words, suddenly burst into laughter. Was this guy joking? This morning, it was just him alone against Zhang Zihao and his bodyguards. How had it suddenly become him bullying Zhang Zihao by outnumbering him?

Ye Xiao was not foolish and quite clever, so he clearly understood what Zhang Zihao meant. There must be many of Zhang Zihao's people around, and Zhang Zihao didn't want to lose face in front of his subordinates.

Ye Xiao laughed and said, "Brother Hao, huh? Hehe, yeah, this morning I brought a reinforcement squad and four mortars, struggling to stop you from harassing innocent women. Brother Hao, you're so brave."

With Ye Xiao's words, many people were amused. Ye Xiao's statement was obviously sarcastic about Zhang Zihao. And, what sort of person was Zhang Zihao? His lackeys knew him well enough. If Zhang Zihao was said to outnumber others, it was expected, but when had he ever been outnumbered?

However, no one dared to say this out loud.

Zhang Zihao, embarrassed by Ye Xiao's words, glared at him and angrily commanded, "I'll let you be tough! Brothers, let's go! Beat him until he can't take care of himself, let him see the prestige of our Third Academy."

As soon as Zhang Zihao spoke, his followers charged towards Ye Xiao.

Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen, seeing this momentum, subconsciously wanted to step forward, ready to fight these people.

However, they had just taken a step forward when Ye Xiao grabbed them and pushed them back into the security office, while he stood at the door, smiling and watching those approaching him.

Although Zhang Zihao shouted vigorously, he didn't step forward but watched Ye Xiao from his spot. Seeing Ye Xiao's relaxed and confident smile, Zhang Zihao somewhat crumbled. What kind of person was this guy? Facing so many people, he could still smile. Could it be that his brain was broken?

In fact, Ye Xiao's brain was far from broken; he was even smarter than most people.

Those people all surged towards Ye Xiao, but few could actually get close to him. Thus, Ye Xiao was very relaxed, as at that time, he didn't use any Nine Yang True Qi. If he had to use Nine Yang True Qi to deal with these young punks, he would have despised himself.

Ye Xiao's fists were like two swiftly swinging hammers, each hit bringing screams that turned the usually quiet campus eerie.

At that moment, Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen stood up from the ground in the security office, where Ye Xiao had just pushed them down.

Sun Yuze and Tang Xuewen were shocked as they watched Ye Xiao block the door alone. Both were smart enough to understand that Ye Xiao had pushed them into the security office to keep them from getting hurt. Tang Xuewen was out of the question, for even against ordinary thugs, he was no match due to his weak physique and lack of real combat experience.

While Sun Yuze often fought and was now a martial artist with his body enhanced by Inner Power True Qi, he was still only slightly stronger than an average person and not strong enough to disregard others completely.

If it had been Sun Yuze blocking the door instead of Ye Xiao, he would have likely been overwhelmed without any capacity to react.

A good tiger cannot stand against a pack of wolves.

Looking at Ye Xiao, it was clear he was a one-man fortress, impossible to bypass. With him there, it was impossible for Zhang Zihao's men to enter the security office.

One by one, the aggressors fell, and at some point, Ye Xiao's fists became stained with blood. It was certain that the blood wasn't his.

The remaining thugs, previously confident, now stood in shock. Was this man even human? Ignoring his own fatigue from the relentless fighting.

Gradually, they dared not advance further. At the security office entrance, more than ten men lay groaning painfully on top of each other, all defeated by Ye Xiao.

Only they knew the true weight of Ye Xiao's fists.

Ye Xiao thought it was almost over, but then he saw another group approaching in the campus, even larger than the first.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile wryly. Was Zhang Zihao pulling out everyone from the Third Academy to challenge him alone?

"Brother Xiao," Sun Yuze immediately moved behind Ye Xiao, having seen the new group of challengers. To Sun Yuze, handling over a dozen attackers was already tough for Ye Xiao, and now Zhang Zihao had brought even more. This was a clear signal they were expected to face serious consequences here.

Hearing Sun Yuze, Ye Xiao couldn't help but smile slightly, "It seems today is really meant for stretching my muscles."

Sun Yuze promptly said to Ye Xiao, "Brother Xiao, should I call Brother Zhao to bring reinforcements?"

"No need," Ye Xiao responded.

Sun Yuze tried to say more, but Ye Xiao stepped over the pile of defeated men and walked down.

"It looks like Brother Hao wants me to stay here for dinner," Ye Xiao joked as he looked at Zhang Zihao.

"You're absolutely right," Zhang Zihao declared, "Today, I'm definitely keeping you here, let's see if you can escape."

"Brother Hao, I think there's been a misunderstanding; I really don't want to feud with you over a woman," Ye Xiao deliberately glanced at the crowded group, speaking slyly.

Hearing this, Zhang Zihao burst out laughing, convinced from Ye Xiao's tone and look that he was frightened by the large number.

"Now you know fear?" Zhang Zihao laughed loudly. "Too bad, today I will cripple you, then call Qin Yulu over to see your miserable state, ha! Just thinking about it is satisfying."

Ye Xiao listened to Zhang Zihao's words and gave a bitter smile; the guy was still quite adolescent in his expression.

Looking directly at Zhang Zihao, Ye Xiao said, "Brother Hao, if I were you, I wouldn't do that. It won't improve your standing in the eyes of a beauty. However, if you release us, I can teach you a way to easily win her heart. Then, what happens next would be completely up to you."

By then, Ye Xiao found himself surrounded by Zhang Zihao's men in the thick of it, subject to being overwhelmed with a single command from Zhang Zihao.

Before Zhang Zihao could respond, Han Fei whispered urgently, "Ah Hao, don't listen to him; this guy is full of tricks. Act decisively, or we will all be doomed."

Zhang Zihao dismissed Han Fei's concerns with disdain, convinced that Han Fei was only scared of Ye Xiao. Zhang Zihao wasn't afraid, especially now with his men encircling Ye Xiao. To Zhang, Ye Xiao was like a lamb waiting for slaughter, merely a matter of sooner or later.
