Chapter 159 To be fair, you must first have strength.
Xiao Wu's lips trembled as she was refuted, unable to utter a word.
Wang Sheng and the other work-study students were speechless, feeling an indescribable sadness in their hearts.
Although it's common for them, as work-study students, to be bullied and looked down upon, it hasn't reached the point of antagonism.
This conflict was started by Xiao Wu, who led them to initiate it, and they also initiated the duel.
Although it was the senior students who, due to their age, were stronger than the students, the work-study students lost the duel.
But a loss is a loss.
There's not much to say, it's just that we're not as skilled as others.
Now that Xiao Wu is saying that others lack martial ethics and bully the weak with numbers, they don't actually agree.
So I felt very awkward at that moment.
Seeing this, Xiao Chenyu and his group on the opposite side laughed even harder.
Tang San frowned, his face darkening instantly.
They felt quite annoyed by the mockery from Xiao Chenyu and the others.
Because he was also included in the ridicule.
He is still a work-study student, so mocking work-study students is tantamount to mocking him.
What's more, they even mocked Xiao Wu.
This is absolutely unacceptable.
He couldn't stand it.
"You're Boss Xiao, right?"
Tang San took a step forward, stood in front of Xiao Wu, looked at Xiao Chenyu who had a mocking expression on his face, and said expressionlessly.
Xiao Chenyu was taken aback when he heard the question.
He didn't even notice when another person had appeared on the other side.
"Huh? Who are you? Where did this ugly, dark-skinned guy come from?"
Xiao Chenyu let out a soft exclamation, turned his head to look at the unassuming Tang San, and spoke his mind without hesitation.
Because of his cultivation of the Purple Demon Eye, a unique eye-training technique of the Tang Sect, Tang San had to spend a period of time exposed to the sun every morning.
So his skin is somewhat dark.
In addition, he inherited his father Tang Hao's genes and has an extremely ordinary appearance, the kind that would not attract attention in a crowd.
With his dark skin and extremely ordinary appearance, he was undeniably ugly in the eyes of outsiders.
Xiao Chenyu didn't say anything wrong.
However, Tang San's expression was not very good.
At this moment, he was very angry, but because his face was dark, it wasn't very noticeable. If someone were to observe closely, they would definitely notice that his face was even darker, and it was a dark reddish tinge.
"Boss, I know that kid. I think his name is Tang San. He's also a work-study student and shares a dorm with Wang Sheng. I heard he became a disciple of the useless master. A few days ago, he and the useless master were together, but I don't know what they were doing. They weren't at the academy and didn't participate in yesterday's duel."
At this moment, Liu Long, who was standing next to Xiao Chenyu, leaned close to Xiao Chenyu's ear and whispered a few words.
"Oh, so you're a part-time student."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chenyu immediately understood. He wasn't particularly concerned about Tang San's work-study status, but rather found it more interesting that it was related to the "useless master." "Is he the new disciple of that useless master? Doesn't the useless master not teach students? Why is he starting to take on disciples? That's rather strange."
"I don't know."
Liu Long replied.
"Whatever, who cares who he is?"
Xiao Chenyu shook his head indifferently.
He then raised his chin and looked at Tang San, his expression slightly mocking:
"What? You want to stand up for them?"
Tang San suppressed his anger and tried his best to calm himself down before calmly saying:
"I wouldn't say I'm trying to stand out, I just have some thoughts on yesterday's duel."
"Oh? What's your opinion? Tell me about it."
Xiao Chenyu smiled faintly, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes.
"I don't think yesterday's duel was fair."
Tang San raised his head, his expression calm and righteous.
Xiao Chenyu chuckled but didn't say anything.
But his underlings couldn't hold back any longer.
"Bullshit! You think it's unfair just because you say so?"
Liu Long spoke first.
"Heh, you weren't even there yesterday, what do you know?"
Ling Feng followed closely behind and spoke up to refute him.
"That's right, that's right."
The group of underlings behind him started to clamor, refute, and ridicule.
Xiao Chenyu waited a while before raising his hand to stop his underlings:
"Let him continue."
Tang San ignored the taunts from Xiao Chenyu's underlings. Once the room quieted down again, he smiled calmly and, following his plan, continued:
"First of all, in terms of age, apart from Wang Sheng, all the other work-study students are second or third-year students, and Xiao Wu is a first-year student. You, on the other hand, are all fourth-year students or above, and your ages are between ten and twelve years old."
"Work-study students have an inherent disadvantage in terms of physical fitness and cannot possibly compete with you. Therefore, it is unfair."
"Secondly, although everyone's cultivation level is not much different, you are all senior students, and you have been cultivating for longer than the work-study students. The work-study students also have to work and study, so they have even less time to cultivate."
"In terms of strength, it's difficult to compete with you. Therefore, it's unfair."
"Finally, there's the duel mechanism. I remember you guys came up with it, right? A ten-person tag team battle—most of the work-study students wouldn't stand a chance against you. In a tag team battle, you'd win every time. So, that's the biggest unfairness."
"This must all be part of your scheme, Boss Xiao, am I right?"
After listening, Xiao Chenyu looked at Tang San with a hint of appreciation in his eyes. He didn't answer Tang San's question, but smiled slightly and said:
"You're not so stupid, unlike that little bunny, who's all talk and no action. I'd rather she be my pet rabbit."
"Your name is Tang San, right? Why don't you come and join me? In the entire city of Notting, including Notting Academy, if I protect you, no one will dare to mess with you. You can walk around like a madman. You won't have to work so hard as a part-time student anymore. I, Xiao Chenyu, will cover all your food and clothing at Notting Academy. How about it?"
Tang San was stunned. I was planning how to beat you up to avenge Xiao Wu, but you were thinking of recruiting me as your underling.
Before he could even speak...
The mischievous rabbit Xiao Wu stepped forward, pointed her finger at Xiao Chenyu, and began to chatter:
"You good-for-nothing, who are you calling a fool? Who do you think you are? Besides, that mistress is mine, don't even think about making a move on her!"
Xiao Chenyu raised an eyebrow.
He was genuinely indifferent to this talkative little bunny in front of him. All she did was chatter on and on, which was incredibly annoying. He really wished she could just turn into a dead rabbit.
Tang San noticed Xiao Chenyu's emotional change and quickly pulled Xiao Wu aside to stop her from continuing.
At the same time, he spoke:
"Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. I think Boss Xiao should understand what I mean."
"Hehe, whatever you want."
Xiao Chenyu smiled indifferently, and then said:
"You just said yesterday's duel was unfair? Heh—"
"Tang San, you need to know that this world is inherently unfair. It values strength above all else, and the strong prey on the weak."
"If you want fairness, you must first have the strength. Without strength, you are nothing. This is a lesson my father taught me."
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you, my father is the lord of Notting City."
When Xiao Chenyu mentioned his father, his eyes were full of admiration.
Tang San frowned, feeling a slight sense of unease.
"Hmm? This Xiao Chenyu is actually the son of the City Lord of Notting City? So he's a minor nobleman and a second-generation official. In that case, we need to be more careful with our plans. We need to avenge Xiao Wu, but also avoid trouble from the City Lord's Mansion and the academy."
But then Xiao Chenyu continued:
"If you lack the ability, even if I offer you fairness, can you handle it?"
"I can catch it!"
Tang San's eyes lit up and he immediately spoke.
That's exactly what I've been waiting for.
They've taken the bait!
