Hao Zhichao and the rest broke in from the rooftop. Although the rooftop door was locked, it was an ordinary household padlock which was easily picked open.

Lu Shu was on the third floor. But they knew, they should not treat him the same way they did to the other newbie students. In spite of the possibility that those students might become important figures in the future, their current strategy against ambush was more of evasion.

It was not a matter of who was stronger, but the instinctive nature of the majority who had been living a peaceful life.

Lu Shu was different, though. He was well known for accomplishing two military achievements, twice in the remains, a testament to his exceptional abilities.

Moreover, his aggressiveness was evident from his proactive decision to write messages to his opponents. They must be wary of his sneak attack!

If the story spread out that a group of veterans ended up being tricked by a rookie, they would be so ashamed…

“But be cautious, he may try to escape too. Once he’s not seen on the third floor, speed up!”

“Roger!”

The five descended the stairs slowly. There had long been tacit collaboration among them.

But as soon as they walked to the hall on Level 3, to their surprise, Lu Shu was darting towards them like an arrow, with the little fatty Chen Zuan struggling to catch up behind.

What happened to the secret attack and escape? How reckless was he?!

“Is he… insane?”

“What’s happening?”

“Beat him up!”

It was hard to judge which side was more aggressive, on the one hand was the veterans’ anger at being tricked, and the other was Lu Shu’s desire for money.

In order to not damage any furniture nearby, the two sides could not unleash their full power.

But after hearing the two words “beat him”, it was clear that the invaders had no intention to kill. Thus, Lu Shu decided not to restrain himself too.

Upon their first encounter, Lu Shu and Hao Zhichao of Class C gave each other a punch in the chest.

Following a loud sound, the two flew backwards under the blow. Hao Zhichao was stunned by Lu Shu’s move. At the current rate, neither side would gain anything from the fight. Was he out of his mind?

Moreover, Hao Zhichao noticed he had underestimated Lu Shu’s strength. Despite being of the same Class, as a normal Practitioner, Hao’s strength was one class lower than Lu Shu’s. But by right, a recently awakened Class C should not have so much strength!

With impressive agility, Lu Shu’s back flying motion soon stopped.

Then… he shot towards them again.

According to his analysis of the situation, Lu Shu himself clearly held the advantage with his defense and strength. Without flying daggers, there was no way that his opponents could defeat him.

To Lu Shu, who had gone through numerous training and actual combat, the force application skills had long internalized within him as part of his own body.

Due to the teamwork on Hao Zhichao’s side, Lu Shu’s every blow would be fended off by them together. But the harm they exerted on Lu Shu was apparently insignificant.

It felt like a five versus one fight, where your own HP was being reduced by half from every attack but your opponent’s remained almost full. More frustratingly, even your own equipment was banned from use, so you could not amp up your attack anyway…

Now, it hurt Hao Zhichao’s head to see Lu Shu dashing towards them again. What kind of person was that?!

In fact, the greatest weapon of Class C Practitioners in the country was flying daggers, which could accomplish impressive feats in times of crisis. Last time, in Chen Baili and Anthony’s fight, the dagger pierced through the thick curtain of sand and severely wounded the enemy at once.

But their spirit as fighters was no joke as well. At least their will was undoubtedly stronger than ordinary peoples.

In the end, Hao Zhichao started to muster his Spirit Qi Armor as self-defense. He was prepared to resist Lu Shu’s attack until he got the student’s money. A veteran’s dignity? That’s not the priority!

If not, when Lu Shu had exhausted all their energy, things would get more complicated than who beat who up…

However, right at this moment, Lu Shu suddenly increased his speed to the extreme, even faster than just then!

Now, Hao Zhichao’s speed was no match for Lu Shu’s, despite his improved defense thanks to his Spirit Qi Armor. Meanwhile, his other Class D team members were defeated by Lu Shu effortlessly with merely a few strikes of his punches.

It all happened in an instant!

At first, Chen Zuan was following Lu Shu back to the third floor. When the fight just started, he, roared and wanted to come up to help. But when Lu Shu circumvented Hao Zhichao for the other members, Chen Zuan happened to be right in front of Hao Zhichao. After a few seconds of silently staring, Zuan roared, turned and ran away…

Was it not obvious? It was Lu Shu who was the pro. How could he, Chen Zuan, be a rival against a Class C expert?!

After finishing off the rest, Lu Shu turned back to deal with Hao Zhichao. Sensing the change in the situation, Hao Zhichao tried to escape at once. He could never win against Lu Shu!

When Chen Zuan turned, he was shocked to see Hao Zhichao had switched his target from Lu Shu to himself. Lu Shu had the money! Why are you chasing me!

However, the little fatty was still a loyal friend. This thought had to be suppressed!

Otherwise, who the hell knew how scary Lu Shu would become after the fight!

But before Hao Zhichao could reach Chen Zuan, Lu Shu had already caught up to him. Of course, Lu Shu did not intend to kill him either. With a loud punch on Hao Zhichao’s back, he demanded, “Give me all your money!”

Hao Zhichao was provoked at once, “Listen up! I CAN defeat you! But my flying…”

Boom! Another punch!

That almost made Hao Zhichao fall. Though his armor was intact, it was not nice to have someone chase him only to punch him, “Don’t force me into using my flying daggers! I…”

“Where’s your money!”

Hao Zhichao was on the verge of exploding. What kind of candidate was that?! It was not out of his own will, but his superiors’ instructions that the flying daggers were not to be used! What the!

And who could imagine that a group of five, comprising one Class C leader and four Class D members, could not defeat one single student?!

Following another punch, cracks started to appear on Hao Zhichao’s armor. Despite the rapid recovery power from his Spirit Qi, he already had a bad feeling about what was going to happen. Why was this student so powerful?

At that moment, Chen Zuan joined in too. With Lu Shu by his side, he managed to pluck up his courage as well.

After five minutes, Hao Zhichao sat together with his teammates who were equally bruised, “If it were not for the risk that we might hurt you with our daggers… Don’t touch! I’ll give you the money myself!”

Fending off Lu Shu’s hand which was reaching into his pocket, Hao Zhichao took out his wallet by himself…

“From Hao Zhichao’s distress, +999!”

“Huh? So little?” counting the 1,600 yuan in his hands, displeasure crept up on Lu Shu’s face, “Bring more next time!”

Hao Zhichao was fuming with infuriation, “Haha, next time? Next time I’ll bring over twenty people to kick your ass, you hear me…”

“Still got more in your left pocket?” Lu Shu asked.

“From Hao Zhichao’s distress, +999!”
