Chapter 31: The Lesson and Establishing Dominance

In an instant, Lin Ye made his decision. Following the direction the chicken leg came from, he found its culprit—an ugly-looking boy, despite being dressed in fine clothes.

"Are you looking for trouble?" Lin Ye's voice was cold as he glared at the boy.

Though the chicken leg hadn't hit its mark, seeing Lin Ye angry made the boy feel quite pleased.

"Oh~ What's wrong, pal? I was offering you a chicken leg! Why didn't you take it? Hahaha!" The boy feigned surprise as he pointed at the chicken leg near Lin Ye, then burst into loud laughter.

"Hahaha! Yeah, let's give these poor guys some chicken legs!"

"That's right! Let's make sure they have plenty!"

"These paupers will never make it to the second floor anyway. We're the ones who should be 'treating' them! Hahaha!"

…

The other well-dressed day students echoed the laughter, mocking them.

"Treat me to a chicken leg? No thanks, but I'll be happy to return the favor," Lin Ye said icily, eyeing the group on the second floor.

With a flash of coldness in his eyes, Lin Ye aimed at the boy who had thrown the chicken leg, and with a swift kick, he sent it flying back at him.

Whoosh!

The sound of the chicken leg cutting through the air filled the hall as it flew at breakneck speed.

In the blink of an eye, it landed squarely in the mouth of the boy who had thrown it, silencing his laughter.

"Hahaha…mmph…ugh!"

Caught mid-laugh, the boy's mirth abruptly ended as the muddy chicken leg hit his mouth. His first instinct was to swallow, nearly choking. Realizing what had happened, he gagged and spat it out. Seeing the dirt still clinging to the leg, he couldn't help but retch violently.

Meanwhile, the other boys on the second floor, now splattered with greasy bits of chicken, looked down at their soiled clothes, their faces twisted in disgust and rage.

The chicken leg, having been smashed when it hit the ground, had splattered grease and meat onto the group as it soared back up. Their once clean, elegant clothes were now stained and greasy, which made the day students livid.

But instead of blaming their companion who had started the mess, they focused their fury on Lin Ye.

"You dare to strike us?"

"Looks like the lesson we gave you last time wasn't enough!"

"You filthy paupers, we'll make you pay for this!"

…

Fuming, the day students clenched their fists and glared at Lin Ye, seething with rage.

Seeing them ready to come down for a fight, Lin Ye merely sneered, "There's no need for you to come down. I'll come to you."

With that, Lin Ye sprinted toward the second floor. Nearing the edge, he leapt into the air, soaring over five meters in an instant, landing directly in front of the boys on the second-floor balcony.

"What?!"

The day students were stunned. They couldn't believe what they had just witnessed. The gap between the first and second floors was at least four or five meters high. How could someone jump that far?

"You all seem shocked. Have you gone blind and forgotten who I am? Weren't you planning to teach me a lesson? Come on, then," Lin Ye taunted, his face calm but his tone full of provocation as he beckoned them.

"You arrogant little—!" Enraged by Lin Ye's words, the pampered day students charged forward, fists raised to attack.

"You filthy work-study student, you're nothing but trash!" one of them shouted as he swung his fist toward Lin Ye.

"Trash? Work-study student?" Lin Ye smirked coldly, immediately stepping forward to meet their attacks.

Without even using his Phoenix Dance Six Illusions, Lin Ye effortlessly dodged their punches with a few simple twists of his body. Then, with a swift counterattack, his fists connected with their faces.

"What?!"

The day students' faces turned pale as they saw Lin Ye easily dodge their punches. Before they could even react, a fist loomed large in their vision.

Bam!

Bam!

Bam!

…

The sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed as Lin Ye's iron fists smashed into their faces, sending them flying backward. They tumbled across the floor, rolling several times before crashing into the wall, where they finally collapsed, groaning in pain.

Downstairs, the commotion caught everyone's attention, and all eyes turned toward the second floor.

"Wow! Our boss is amazing!" one of the boys from Dorm Seven exclaimed in awe.

Seeing Lin Ye effortlessly take down five day students at once, the younger boys from Dorm Seven looked at him with admiration in their eyes.

Even Wang Sheng was impressed. Although Lin Ye made it look easy, Wang Sheng knew that those day students were no pushovers. They weren't far behind him in terms of strength. For Lin Ye to defeat them so easily meant that his power was far beyond Wang Sheng's own.

"Is this all you've got?" Lin Ye asked casually as he walked toward the groaning day students, his tone calm and indifferent.

"You...don't get cocky! We're only mid-tier among the day students. Beating us is nothing special!" one of the day students gritted out through the pain, his face still smarting from the blow.

"If I can beat you all so easily, then I can do the same to the strongest among you. You're all the same to me," Lin Ye replied coolly.

"You!"

The group of day students on the ground was seething with anger, furious that a lowly work-study student dared to look down on them.

"What an arrogant mouth you have!" A cold voice suddenly cut through the tension from the back of the second floor.

Turning toward the source of the voice, Lin Ye saw a girl with snow-white hair and an air of cool elegance, leading a group of students as she approached.

Her face was sharp and beautiful, exuding both strength and chilliness. It was she who had spoken.

"Boss Lu Bing!" The beaten day students brightened up at the sight of the girl, as if their savior had finally arrived.

"She's your boss? A girl?" Lin Ye raised an eyebrow, his tone more curious than mocking.

It wasn't that he looked down on her for being female. He just found it strange that these boys would accept a girl as their leader.

"A girl?!"

At Lin Ye's comment, the girl's—Lu Bing's—expression darkened immediately.
