Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Following Chu Lingjun’s miraculous victory over Ding Peng and Chen Zhiqi, everyone in Year One Class Four looked at their class monitor in shock and cheers. Their faces were filled with admiration and envy.

However, there was one person who didn’t react the same.

It was Chu Lingjun’s dear junior high classmate, Zhang Liang.

Zhang Liang stood in the crowd with his fists clenched tightly. He gritted his teeth and looked at Chu Lingjun in fear.

The stronger Chu Lingjun was, the more uneasy he felt.

In just the first week of school, Zhang Liang realized that he had fallen into an unprecedented gloomy era.

He had been cleaning toilets for a week, and he had been cleaning them alone!

The other classes had at least three or four people to help around, but he had to clean everything on his own!

He protested to Chu Lingjun many times, but Chu Lingjun only looked at him indifferently and said, “I’m giving you a chance to atone for your sins. Don’t be ungrateful.”

Zhang Liang wanted to rip the hair out of his head!

If it wasn’t for the huge gap in strength between him and Chu Lingjun, he would have fought Chu Lingjun long ago!

Every day after school felt like a torture routine!

Furthermore, it was unknown who spread the news that Zhang Liang had bullied Chu Lingjun in junior high, but everyone started resenting him because of that. Zhang Liang’s happy days were long gone.

He realized he had been isolated from the group. No one in the class was willing to be friends with him, and no one was willing to talk to him.

Especially on the first day of school, the boys who sat beside him and laughed at Chu Lingjun treated him like a loser and didn’t dare to approach him at all.

Zhang Liang tried his best to take the initiative to talk to others, but they ignored him. From time to time, they might even sneer at him!

During the actual combat training in martial arts class, Zhang Liang felt like it was him against the world.

Everyone who fought with him did not hold back. Every time, he was beaten until his nose bled, and his body ached everywhere!

In just a week, Zhang Liang felt as if a century had passed.

After school… Zhang Liang stood at the school gate with his bag on one shoulder. His clothes were wet and there was a strong smell of disinfectant that surrounded him.

Normally, when cleaning toilets, the smell wouldn’t linger that long. However, when Zhang Liang was cleaning just now, he recalled his week in pain. The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became.

His heart was in a mess, and his anger surged. His hands grabbed the disinfectant bottle too hard and burst it!

The disinfectant splashed on half of his body.

Zhang Liang was so angry that he wanted to leave the toilet and go home. Whoever wanted to wash the toilet could do it. Even if he was exhausted and died outside, he would never wash the toilet again!

However, just as he was about to leave, the man he hated so much walked up to him expressionlessly with a thunderbolt in his hand.

Every day after school, Chu Lingjun would supervise Zhang Liang to clean the toilets before leaving.

It was very considerate of him to do so as the class monitor.

Therefore, in his extreme anger, Zhang Liang cleaned the toilets day after day.

“Ahhh, that b*stard makes me sick! Chu Lingjun, you forced me to do this. You forced me to do this. If it wasn’t for your…”

Zhang Liang cursed. He bit his lips and seemed to have made up his mind. He turned around and walked quickly toward a remote alley beside the school.

Upfront, this alley was inhabited by a few families.

After passing a corner, the surroundings became a little remote. There were cigarette buds, beer bottles, food packaging bags, plastic bags, and other trash that were scattered all around the floor.

The air was also filled with the stench of beer, sweat, and other gasses.

At the corner of the dead end, a group of students were squatting in the corner smoking and drinking. They were saying obscene jokes and then letting out exaggerated laughter.

Judging from their school uniforms, they were also from Quicksand High School.

“Hey, Long!”

Zhang Liang skillfully took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed a few to the student called Long with a fawning smile.

The senior named Long glanced at it and stretched out his hand, forcing the entire pack of cigarettes from Zhang Liang’s hand.

He put one in his mouth and the rest in his pocket.

Zhang Liang’s face darkened. This was something he had just bought today, but he dared not say anything.

“Long, so any news about the matter I asked yesterday?” Zhang Liang said with a flattering smile.

“I’ve a lot on my mind. How would I know what you’re talking about?”

“About your help with beating someone up?” Zhang Liang continued to smile obsequiously.

“Oh, you’re talking about that Chu guy in your class, right?”

Long blew out a ring of smoke and said to his friend, “Apparently that person is the class monitor, and he has awakened his lightning power.”

“This type of student is not easy to deal with. The teachers and the school will keep a close eye on him, so…” Long suddenly paused.

“So what?” Zhang Liang hurriedly said.

“You’ll have to cough up a lot more for us to do something about it.”

Zhang Liang’s mouth twitched, but he gritted his teeth and took out some cash from his pocket and handed them to Long.

“Long, this should be enough, right?”

Long quickly took the money from Zhang Liang’s hand and touched it carefully. After confirming that it was real, he immediately put it into his pocket with a smile.

“Alright, no problem. We’ll deal with this brat today!”

“We’ll trash that bullsh*t student into a pulp.”

“Thank you! Thank you so much!” Zhang Liang was ecstatic.

At this moment, two people walked in from outside the alley. A tall and sturdy boy was carrying a short, bespectacled boy.

“Please, I really don’t have any money left. I only gave that much pocket money a week, and I’ve already given it all to you…” The bespectacled boy shouted in panic.

Before the bespectacled boy could finish speaking, the tall boy smiled and suddenly punched him in the chest.

The bespectacled boy immediately curled up in pain. His glasses fell off his nose.

“Do you not understand me? I don’t care how much pocket money you have. You said you’d give me a hundred per week.”

“I really don’t have that much money- Ah!”

A few more punches landed on the bespectacled boy’s body. He immediately fell to the ground in pain and spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Do you understand now?”

“Y-yes…”

“Also, if you dare speak up to me like this ever again, you know the consequences. I can protect you for a while, but I can’t protect you forever. Don’t forget that I know where you live.”

The bespectacled boy’s face instantly revealed a look of despair and fear.

Looking at the bespectacled boy being beaten up, Long revealed a smug smile. “See? Don’t worry, that Chu guy will be taught a lesson. Since you’ve paid up, I’ll definitely help you settle the score!”

At this moment, light footsteps could be heard and a figure appeared in the alley.

Zhang Liang subconsciously looked over, but his eyes instantly widened!

The person that showed up was actually Chu Lingjun!

Chu Lingjun didn’t even look at Zhang Liang and Long. Instead, he looked at the bespectacled boy who was beaten to the ground with a bruised nose and swollen face. He asked, “Do you need my help? If you need it, I’ll make my move now and guarantee that he won’t dare to touch you again. If you don’t need it, I’ll feign ignorance and leave. It’s up to you.”
