"Did you got shockwave in your head the last time we beat you kid?"
The one who said that was the bearded man in the middle— this was the acting leader from the memory of Xiao Che. On both of his sides, from his left side, a thin youth was raising his nose in the air, arrogantly looking at Long Tian, while in the right was fatty but weirdly his belly was constantly sending out noises— probably he was hungry as hell.
Long Tian lightly smiled and said, "Wonderful, you guessed right. I lost my mind, so can you step aside and don't block my road?" He playfully looks at them with a hint of fearing look, anxiously visible from him.
The trio laughed loudly, they could see Long Tian was trembling thus he was clearly frightened that he wanted to hastily depart from this area. But how could he slip this chance exhorting free meal from a fragile youth?
So after the trio laughed, the bearded man said in assurance. "Definitely! Boy give the food to us and you can leave, father here promise that you can leave without a single hair falling from you."
"Right, right, kid give it to us." The thin youth, hungry fatty spoke as the corner of their lips were dripping down saliva to the ground as if they couldn't wait to devour the food.
"Oh! You mean my bread?" Long Tian said as he grabbed one of the bread and start biting; although it was tough he gnawed on it and gulping it down as he looked at them.
The trio cursed and anger rose from their heart. Now that one of the bread was missing half tenth of its appearance, they would argue whether what breed they would get. Hence, the fatty was the fastest one to react quickly sounded out, fearing that his two companions would grab the untainted food. "Kid! Give me the bread now, this Grandpa will immediately let you leave from this place. Plus, this Grandpa will risk his life to escort you back from the right regional area."
Long Tian: "....."
His companions: "....."
The spectators: "....."
Brother, we know that you're from the right regional area but can't you had a bit of dignity?
Even Long Tian stop chewing the bread when he saw how desperate the Fatty is, he was speechless. But if there were no people here watching this scene of robbing, the fatty would surely jump over to him and fled from his companion.
"Cough. Cough. Fatty, we're robbing bread, not giving our dignity, understood?" The bearded man leaned over to the Fatty's side and murmured in a low breath.
"Oh, right! I forgot!" The fatty scratched his head.
"..."
Long Tian was amused from the scene on his line of sight, for he reached the body tempering, his senses naturally increased, especially his sense of hearing thus when the two were whispering, he naturally heard them.
Long Tian laughed, circling around them, as he walks. But again, he was blocked by the trio.
Because Long Tian was never stopped chewing the rough bread as it decreased from 1 meter of its original length, the trio was no longer patient and the thin youth couldn't sit anymore as he said ruthlessly. "Brat! Give us the bread and leave or else someone would be bedridden for several months."
Long Tian stopped chewing, putting the bread into the plastic bag, his eyes flash into coldness like no longer from his playful nature just a while ago as he said. "Oh, then how about you demonstrate to me how?"
The thin youth was enraged by Long Tian's mockery. He was a youth that was born from a good family of left regional area of Wasteland City, but when he awakens an E- grade talent he was ignored by his family as he was thrown into the right regional area in hunger. Hence, when he listened to Long Tian that didn't respect him, he was no longer patient as he pounced directly at Long Tian, wanting to show him to be respectful.
Long Tian merely laughed at the incoming thin youth. But when the thin youth was near his radius, he punched out a simple punch.
Boom!
The thin youth who was clearly smiling at the whole time, can't wait to devour the food, suddenly changed expression when he saw that Long Tian countered him with a punch that suffocated him as he was thrown back and coughed out blood.
"You... You... You...."The thin youth couldn't believe that he lost to a brat that was 2 years younger than him, his voice was stuttering as he said.
"You- You what? Can you please speak clearly and don't shame yourself with your pitiful strength?" Long Tian said indifferently.
Hearing Long Tian, the thin youth was speechless as with a 'Bang' he was knocked unconscious in the ground, for of Long Tian's simple punch.
The crowd, the hungry fatty, bearded man were having their eyes wide. Everything just happened in the flash and the thin youth was swept back with a simple punch and to the point he was unconscious. They now doubt if their eyes were tricking them.
The hungry fatty didn't speak merely looking at Long Tian with changing expression. The bearded man breathed, as he said. "You did have a strength. I wronged you."He then looked at the increasing crowd as he frowned and continued. "Kid come with us!"
Long Tian's eyes flash with a strange light as his mouth arc a smile. "Oh, ok."
The bearded old man was clearly taking him to an empty area. It was not good to make commotion to the crowded place, hence the bearded man was enduring his anger and wanted to bring him to an empty alley, beat him, and rob his food.
The bearded man, the fatty, along with Long Tian they disappeared from the disappointed crowd. The unconscious youth was left behind in the cold ground with a trace of fear.
Although the fight between Long Tian and the thin youth was surprising, the crowd was not that very surprised for they are in the same younger generation. Hence, the fight was merely an appetizer for them, but now that the fight halted, they sighed in disappointment as they dispersed.
....
In the dark alley, connecting alley between the Left regional area and the Right regional area.
In the small space with only a straight line, Long Tian stood across the hungry fatty and the bearded man.
"Brat, last chance, give us the bread and you can leave your life intact." The bearded man said.
Long Tian merely smiled as he said. "If I not?"
"Your courting death!"
The bearded man no longer controlled his anger. His heart was already furious at the crowded place and he even lowers his head to Long Tian out of respect of his strength. But who would have thought that Long Tian was just so fearless that he couldn't recognize his strength?
Hence shooting his body from the ground, he pounced towards Long Tian like a mad wolf. His fist arcs into iron steel as he shows no mercy even to youth like Long Tian.
The hungry fatty merely looked from his spot, not moving. His eyes were locked to the two, he stares at Long Tian that was not moving as he stood there like a wooden figure that was frightened with a punch. He also gives ridicule. But in the next moment, his expression turned into disbelief and fear replace it.
Long Tian who was not moving as he faces the bearded man's punch suddenly move. After the bearded man's punch arrives half a meter from his face, he raised his hand at a supernatural speed as he gripped the bearded man's fist. He then lightly spun around a few times, withdrawing his hand as the bearded old man shoot like a descended arrow.
His body was smashed into the right wall, creating deep layers of crack as his expression show disbelief, fear, terror even he was knocked unconscious with the intolerable pain. Long Tian glanced at him coldly. In that swing, he didn't even utilize his spiritual Qi, his body was already extremely strong and powerful when his body entered the tempering realm. Hence, even if he didn't utilize 10% of his strength, he could beat the bearded man with ease.
Long Tian swept his gaze to the hungry fatty that now turned into a frightening rabbit as he stared at Long Tian as if he was staring at a monster. He could not believe that a 15-year-old kid had this kind of strength. But it was not really that surprising for them to live in the same right regional area. But, they have just beaten this youth four days ago! He couldn't believe it. "Impossible! You... You... you absolutely can't have this strength..."
"There's nothing impossible in this world!" Long Tian grinned.
"No, it's impossible, I won't believe it. Unless, unless..... unless, you had obtained strength when we beat you four days ago?!"
Long Tian: "....."
Long Tian was speechless. Is there something wrong with this fatty? Or perhaps hunger made him lose his rationality? How can humans gain strength through beating?
But, anyway, he was also half right. They beat Xiao Che and let me possessed his body and gift me the system. Long Tian smiled as he thought of this. He then looked at the trembling fatty and dashed to him as he punched with controlled strength. The fatty was punched on his noisy belly as he was also knocked out unconscious. Long Tian looks at the two as he couldn't help but shakes his head. Even in this world and his previous life, there was no difference, A weak person only bullies the weak. The trio was the best example of the statement.
Long Tian indifferently glance at them, took out the half-bread, eating it as he walks towards the right regional area. Leaving behind two unconscious men.
...
In the bakery shop, near it. The thin youth rubbed his glabella, opening his eyes, he shows fear before cursing loud.
"Damn! I'm pretty sure that those two already eat their share! Argh! How can they left me here alone!"
Of course, this would happen only an hour later.
