What to do

Yue'er's eyes widened, her innocent gaze filled with shock. "Big Brother," she pouted, "She's scolding us!"

"Ignore her," Hao'er replied, glancing disdainfully at the man with the bloody nose. "Mad dogs always bark." He turned to Seventeen and Muchen. "Let's go." He tossed the broom at the Apprentice and took Yue'er's hand, heading for the exit.

As they stepped towards the door, the man, now wiping his nose, lunged at Hao'er's back. "You think you can just walk away?" He snarled, swinging a fist.

"Watch out!" The apprentice cried, fearing for the young boy.

Sensing the attack, Hao'er's eyes narrowed. He swiftly turned, grabbing the man's wrist and bending it sharply downwards. Simultaneously, he delivered a precise kick to the man's chin. He spun in mid-air, landing gracefully as the sickening crack of bone and a scream echoed through the hall. The man crashed to the floor.
