Dragon Emperor, Martial God-Chapter 4: Step and Slap

Translator:?Sparrow Translations??Editor:?Sparrow Translations

It was not just them. Everyone from the surrounding hostels was woken up by the loud noise. A few nosy students even came out of their hostels to figure out what was going on.

“Hey! There’s something going on in Hostel 305 again! Let’s go and have a look at how that fat Ling Yun is getting abused again!” A nosy guy from the hostel next door poked his head out and went back in to tell his hostel mates.

“That idiot gets abused every day anyway. What’s so interesting about that?” His hostel mate heard that Ling Yun was about to get bullied again and he immediately lost all interest and laid back down.

Hostel Room 305.

Wei Tiangan finally recovered after a brief moment of shock. If it was not for the incident happening right before his eyes, he would have never believed that Ling Yun would dare to enter by kicking down the door!

Everyone in school knew that Ling Yun had a cowardly personality and he was the easiest to bully. Fair-skinned, standing at 1.8 meters tall and with a body that weighed over 100kg, even a Grade 10 student would dare to insult him in his face!

“Fat pig, good job! What happened in those few hours that you were missing? You’ve suddenly got the balls to kick down the door?” Even though Wei Tiangan did not know what triggered Ling Yun, he still could not be bothered with Ling Yun at all.

By then, Gu Yuanlong had also sobered up from the shock. His mind clicked and he agreed with whatever Wei Tiangan said right away, “Hey fattie, did you confess to Cao Shanshan last night and end up getting punched by someone else? Haha, why are your glasses and coat missing? Don’t tell me it was because you tried to take advantage of her and your belongings got taken away as evidence after people beat you up?”

As much as Gu Yuanlong was not insinuating anything, someone else might have perceived an unintended meaning. Wei Tiangan’s face twisted into an ugly expression the moment he heard that and he began to boil up within! He just noticed that Ling Yun was indeed half naked from the waist up. Did this guy really defile his goddess?

“Other than waking all of us up this late, you still dare to kick down the door! I figured your body is starting to itch, isn’t it? Do you need me to give you a good beating?”

The guy talking was Jia Meng. He was barely 1.7 meters tall and he was as skinny as a beanpole.

However, this kid had a bad personality. His favorite hobby was to bully Ling Yun. Both Ling Yun and Jia Meng slept on the bottom bunks. While others would sleep facing the same direction, he would intentionally sleep with his feet facing Ling Yun’s face.

Back then, Ling Yun tried to face the same direction as Jia Meng. However, the moment he brought up this idea, Jia Meng would give him a good beating. After several rounds, Ling Yun had no choice but to accept his predicaments.

“Hey, his pants are still dripping with water! Could it be because she rejected his confession, he chose to commit suicide by jumping into a river? That would be so fun tomorrow! The number one loser in Qingshui High got rejected by the brightest and most beautiful girl in school and attempted suicide by jumping into a river. That would be such a big news!”

Sha Guoxing, who was in the bunk above Chai Hanlin, calmly put his glasses on and looked around before saying all that, as if he thought the situation was not chaotic enough.

By then, the awoken students from the neighboring hostels had already gathered outside Hostel 305 to watch the commotion. They laughed hysterically after hearing what Sha Guoxing had said.

Wei Tiangan felt slightly relieved after hearing what Sha Guoxing said. He also noticed that the spot where Ling Yun stood was already wet from the water that dripped down from his pants. He considered Ling Yun’s personality and figured the possibility of that situation happening was highly likely.

However, the moment he thought of Ling Yun having the guts to confess to his own crush, campus belle Cao Shanshan, Wei Tiangan was instantly consumed by jealousy. How dare Ling Yun disrespect and take advantage of her, the very goddess that he himself dare not defile!

He had to teach him a proper lesson this time around. A violent one, or else it would be going against the norm.

He exchanged looks with Sha Guoxing and Gu Yuanlong, who were in the top bunk and he knew that both of them had the same idea as him. His expression immediately turned ruthless and he let out a sinister laugh.

Only Chai Hanlin hopped off his bed after listening to the conversation and without even putting on his shoes, he went over to Ling Yun to show him some concern. “Ling Yun, where on earth did you go? Where are your glasses and coat? Why are your pants wet? Are you alright?”

Chai Hanlin was from the rural areas and his family’s financial status was not high, but he studied diligently and managed to enter Qingshui High with his own capabilities. His results consistently placed him in the top ten of his class. However, he had a short stature and was as skinny as a beanpole. It was inevitable for him to be bullied by mean classmates and as such, he could empathize with Ling Yun, who was also a common target for bullies.

For Ling Yun who just arrived in this world, he finally experienced a hint of genuine care and concern. He lowered his head towards Chai Hanlin and smiled, “I’m alright.”

He then lifted his head up quickly and his expression darkened as he looked at Wei Tiangan. He uttered coldly, “Tell me, who locked the door? Was it you?”

“Hey, I suppose you really did grow a pair! Our hostel’s resident pig dares to speak to us like that! Fat pig, listen up. I’m telling you once and for all. I was the one who locked the door. What can you do about it?” Wei Tiangan said as he climbed down from the top bunk. He was completely angered by Ling Yun’s assertion.

Before his feet even touched the ground, he felt a meaty hand grab his neck and his body was lifted up. Before he knew it, Ling Yun had thrown him onto the ground!

“Ah!” Wei Tiangan did not expect Ling Yun to get physical with him. He groaned in pain as he landed on his back. In addition, he was only wearing shorts and the floor was ice cold.

Before Wei Tiangan could even recover, Ling Yun lifted his foot and placed his mud-stained sneakers right on his chest, completely indifferent to Wei Tiangan’s struggle and the cries from the surrounding students who were in shock. He continued smiling, “What can I do about it? Step on you, that’s all!”

The students’ jaws dropped and their eyes widened in shock. Everyone was completely stunned!

Gu Yuanlong and Sha Guoxing were getting off their beds and they were preparing to join Wei Tiangan in bashing Ling Yun. However, they were also paralyzed by the scene before them. Jia Meng repeatedly rubbed his dazed eyes fiercely. Is this all a dream?

Ling Yun was thrilled amidst the suffering of his peers. Even though his body was still fat, he had been completely reborn after the cleansing of his immortal spiritual energy left behind when he was still in the Tribulation Stage.

Apart from his myopia being completely gone, his body’s hidden illnesses were all disappearing along with his Yang Heel Meridian that had recovered up to approximately seventy percent. On top of that, with the spiritual energy that he had absorbed from the Shichiyou herb, his body then was as strong as an ox!

It was needless to mention that he was completely familiar with the human body’s meridians and acupuncture points. Based on just sheer strength alone, everyone in the hostel was no match for him!

Chai Hanlin was shaken beyond description as he witnessed Ling Yun transform from a docile sheep into a ferocious beast. He looked at Wei Tiangan, who was always so condescending, struggling beneath Ling Yun’s feet. He could not help but feel bad for him. He muttered, “Ling Yun…”

Ling Yun had a good impression of Chai Hanlin. He waved his hand and said, “Stay out of this. I’m going to make them repay their debts today!”

Ling Yun had obtained the Shichiyou herb by chance and his mood was superb. He had initially planned to return to the hostel for a good night’s sleep and put everything aside. However, he had not expected to be greeted by a closed door the moment he got back.

Did they still think Ling Yun was a useless coward? It was the perfect time for them to repay their debts, both old and new!

Wei Tiangan had been thrown to the ground unexpectedly by Ling Yun, then stepped on heavily on his chest in front of so many people. He felt ashamed and struggled endlessly. He tried using his hands to push Ling Yun’s feet off in order to stand up.

However, Ling Yun’s foot was like a nail that pinned him down onto the ground. No matter how much he struggled, he could not even move an inch!

Regardless of whether it was the students in the hostel or those who were watching from the doorway, their eyes twitched involuntarily. Their hearts began to race as they saw the events unfold before their eyes!

Fighting in school compound was common, but to be able to pin someone to the ground with just one foot was really something rare!

Since when did Ling Yun become this fearless? Everyone had the same question in their mind.

“D*mn, this fatty is out of his mind! Gu Yunlong! Jia Meng! Quickly come and beat him up! What are you waiting for?” Wei Tiangan had a fierce expression as he yelled for help from them.

However, Gu Yunlong was someone who feared the powerful and bullied the weak. He clearly saw that Ling Yun had single-handedly lifted Wei Tiangan, who was at least 60kg and thrown him onto the ground. Of course, he would not want to act irrationally then.

On the other hand, Jia Meng thought he had a chance as Ling Yun’s back facing him. With a hint of relentlessness flashing through his eyes, he quietly crawled down from his bed and crept up behind Ling Yun, then landed a punch directly on Ling Yun’s back.

The punch was a solid hit, but Ling Yun turned around seemingly unbothered and laughed at him.

“The one thing I love most is beating people when they least expect it. However, you can’t expect to hurt someone with that tiny bit of strength right? Let me teach you how to fight!”

*Slap!*

His hand reached Jia Meng’s face the moment his words left his mouth as he gave Jia Meng a tight slap to his face. The slap sounded clear as day in the silent night! The sound reached far and wide!

Even though he could not recall his name, in his memory, this kid was the worst and bullied “him” the most. Therefore, Ling Yun gave him a heavier punishment!

Two bloody teeth flew out of his mouth and slap marks instantly appeared on Jia Meng’s face. His cheeks were swelling up at an alarming rate. 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m

“Ouch!” Jia Meng was hit so hard that he spun a complete turn on the spot before he groaned in pain. He covered his face and took a few steps back, stopping only at the crowd near the doorway. By then there was only one thing left in his eyes: Fear.

Following that slap, everyone shuddered simultaneously. At that moment, only one thing was confirmed – Ling Yun had changed!

Ling Yun was no longer that weak and cowardly boy who let everyone step over him. Even though they were unwilling to believe it, what unfolded before their eyes forced them to.

With one foot on Wei Tiangan and a slap that sent Jia Meng flying, what truly struck fear in everyone’s heart was the lack of ferociousness and madness on his face when he was fighting. There was also a slight ridicule in his smile as if whatever he did was as simple as breathing.

Of the students who were watching from the doorway, two of them had bullied Ling Yun previously. They instinctively moved backwards with their shoulders shrugged in fear that Ling Yun would notice them.

“Gu Yuanlong! Sha Guoxing! What are you two waiting for? I have no idea what madness he got into, but if we don’t settle him tonight, we’ll be in deep trouble in the future!”

Poor Wei Tiangan still had not realized that Ling Yun had completely changed even though he was still being stepped on. He even had the audacity to encourage Gu Yuanlong and his peers to help him out.

“Noisy!” Ling Yun stepped a little harder and Wei Tiangan’s face immediately turned pale as he started tearing up. It was impossible for him to utter another word.

Ling Yun lowered his head to look at Wei Tiangan, who was lying on the floor and had given up on struggling. His eyes then swept across Gu Yuanlong and Sha Guoxing with a hint of mockery, finally stopping at the doorway. free𝒘ℯ𝗯𝙣𝗼ν𝑒𝗹.𝒄o𝒎

“I suppose you guys bullied me quite a bit for these two years, right? As long as you guys weren’t going overboard, I would have just endured and forgotten about it. However, you guys actually dared to lock the hostel door and forbid me from entering tonight. If I endured this, wouldn’t you guys just end up taking a dump on my head in the future?”

Everyone else who was watching from the doorway heard Ling Yun. They started thinking to themselves and realized that what Wei Tiangan and his friends did were, in fact, a little overboard.

No matter how weak and useless Ling Yun was and no matter how much you wanted to bully him, you still should not forbid him from returning to his hostel, right? Ultimately, he paid to stay there.

This was also just Ling Yun’s personality. If someone else bullied him like that, he would fight the person to the death.

Life was like that. If it was the original Ling Yun who returned tonight, he would definitely have given up on knocking on the door and stayed outside till sunrise. He would not even have dared to let out a fart.

If people then found out about this, they would mock and insult him as usual. However, no one stopped and wondered what if the roles were reversed and they were treated like that instead.

However, tonight, Ling Yun fought back as a strong, unopposed force that others could not retaliate against. Naturally, others would imagine that if it were them, they would definitely fight with all their might too. They might even fight back even more intensely.

“Sigh, I see how it is. Wei Tiangan was indeed too much. Even bunnies would bite back if they were threatened…” People at the doorway started to defend Ling Yun against the injustice.

“Are you guys done watching the show? Those who are done, get out of my sight! Don’t forget to close the door! You, come over!”

Ling Yun looked coldly towards the nosy students at the doorway and pointed at Jia Meng.

Jia Meng, who was still clutching his swollen cheeks and had retreated all the way back to the doorway, shuddered. He was not ready for a second round.
