Chapter 1484: Chapter 1484
"We’re surrounded by so many people, and you’re asking me what I want to do now? Isn’t that a bit ridiculous."
Tang Ming glanced at Guan Yanqing impatiently and pouted: "I’ve beaten the people, so what do you want to do now? Do you want to fight us or let us leave?"
Guan Yanqing immediately became conflicted. He’s not in charge here; Liu Chen is the highest authority at the moment. Plus, with the Liu brothers being beaten so badly, it would be a loss of face if he rashly let them leave.
Liu Chen roared through gritted teeth.
Guan Yanqing breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, and gestured for the crowd to disperse.
Even a master who the Liu brothers couldn’t handle would only bring defeat upon themselves if they charged forward.
"Hahaha, the little martial arts community is nothing."
Tang Ming laughed, released Liu Chen, and strode out.
"My name is Tang Ming. If you’re not convinced, feel free to come and seek revenge on me, but you’d better not harm my dorm brothers again. Otherwise, if someone gets poisoned again, I won’t help you detoxify."
Tang Ming walked away while reminding them without turning his head.
Meng Xianjun pushed the dazed Shao Wuyou and hurriedly followed behind Tang Ming.
"Farewell, farewell."
Shao Wuyou greeted the group of furious martial artists while running away: "Make sure you don’t get the wrong person when you seek revenge."
A group of members of the little martial arts community just watched Tang Ming and the other two leave grandly.
In the history of the small martial arts community, there has never been an incident of someone disrupting them, and now they have to watch a few troublemakers leave. It’s an unparalleled humiliation.
Though full of anger and unwillingness, Guan Yanqing and others temporarily ignored Tang Ming and rushed to Liu Xing and Liu Chen to check on them first.
Liu Xing had already lost consciousness, while Liu Chen wore a look of humiliation, almost grinding his teeth to pieces, his eyes full of despair.
"Brother Chen, how are you feeling?"
Guan Yanqing supported Liu Chen.
"My brother’s and my cultivation has been crippled."
Liu Chen squeezed out the words through gritted teeth.
Everyone was shocked, not expecting Tang Ming to be so ruthless, crippling two martial masters in one move.
"Call for help, contact the alliance hierarch immediately. I swear I won’t be human if I don’t avenge this humiliation."
Liu Chen shouted through clenched teeth, tears uncontrollably flowing.
They had thought a few newcomers were just ignorant and arrogant, needing education. Instead, he and his brother’s cultivation ended up getting destroyed.
For a martial master, having one’s cultivation crippled is even harder to accept than death.
"Take you to the hospital first. I’ll contact the senior immediately."
Guan Yanqing swallowed hard, immediately assembling people to carry the Liu brothers to the hospital.
The other people were full of relief, thankful they hadn’t attacked Tang Ming. Otherwise, with his brutal methods, their cultivation might have been crippled too, which would be disastrous.
Tang Ming walked out of the small martial arts community’s base with Shao Wuyou and Meng Xianjun, his expression calm as the water. This time he had really gone all out, directly crippling the Liu brothers’ cultivation.
The main issue was the arrogance of those brothers, constantly threatening to cripple their cultivation. Tang Ming merely fought fire with fire and never took the small martial arts community seriously.
They had come to detoxify them kindly and sought reconciliation, yet the Liu brothers stabbed them in the back, which was too treacherous.
"Finally, we’re out. They didn’t chase us, thank goodness."
Returning to the campus, Shao Wuyou exhaled long; he looked fearfully behind him, afraid of the martial arts community chasing after them.
"Relax, if they had the ability to chase us, they wouldn’t have let us leave then."
Meng Xianjun gave Shao Wuyou a sideways glance, "But this small martial arts community seems not very strong, just a few martial masters."
"Liu Chen is a four-star martial master; Liu Xing is a three-star martial master. Their level of strength is already formidable enough in a typical city to establish a martial arts family."
Tang Ming scratched his chin, "If I’m not mistaken, the small martial arts community’s base is just a place for martial artists to gather for fun. The true masters wouldn’t stay there forever."
"What do you mean? Isn’t a four-star martial master considered a master?"
Shao Wuyou’s expression changed slightly, "Are you saying there really is a super strong master in this small martial arts community?"
"Imperial University gathers disciples from forces nationwide, including those from some hidden families and hidden sects. Do you think their actual strength is just a little bit?"
Meng Xianjun laughed and sighed, "I estimate there might be a six-star martial master in the small martial arts community, which is the limit for this age group."
"What do you mean? How did you calculate this?"
Shao Wuyou looked at Meng Xianjun with curiosity.
"Typically, students are between 17 and 24 years old, including graduate students, no older than thirty."
Meng Xianjun squinted his eyes: "A young talent in martial arts cultivating to six-star martial master by this age is already considered a genius. The small martial arts community can’t all be geniuses, right?"
"Exactly, exactly, most of those people are martial artists, with only a few martial masters. They can’t all be geniuses."
Shao Wuyou nodded repeatedly.
"Do you think the geniuses from hidden families and sects would have what kind of strength at this age?"
Suddenly, Tang Ming stopped walking and turned to curiously stare at the two.
Embarrassed, Shao Wuyou shook his head: "I’m just a successor from a second-level city’s martial arts family, trained to martial master status under my brother’s guidance. I thought at nineteen cultivating to martial master was impressive, but here at Imperial University, there are so many freaks."
"Even a successor from a city’s martial arts family like you has cultivated to martial master, so the disciples from sects, martial arts sects, families, and hidden forces in martial arts might be even stronger, right?"
Tang Ming chuckled as he mumbled.
"If they truly are genius disciples from hidden sects or families, even martial generals might appear."
After a moment of silence, Meng Xianjun spoke slowly.
"Wait, are you joking or serious?"
Hearing this, Tang Ming was stunned. Even though he had anticipated the disciples from hidden forces could be strong, achieving martial general status so young seemed too overpowered.
"Of course, it’s not a joke."
Meng Xianjun glanced at Tang Ming: "Hidden forces possess peak cultivation resources. Their disciples undergo Washing Marrow from birth and receive very regular and traditional cultivation guidance, so breaking through to martial general isn’t surprising."
"Damn, this time I might have a big problem."
Tang Ming chuckled bitterly, "The reason why I dared to make a big fuss in the small martial arts community is that I thought these students, even if they have some strength, aren’t too strong—six-star martial masters at most. But if there really is someone stronger, I can’t handle it."
