Ji Yun rubbed his chest.
It was fine, not particularly painful.
But Ji Yun had truly failed to notice that this small high school campus was actually hiding such a professional expert!
The kick was not something those students who practice performance Taekwondo could compare with.
Just as Ji Yun wanted to get a clearer look at who the person was, a large group of people rushed past the window, their hair overall black but rainbow-colored under the sunlight.
Such a gathering of teenagers would make ordinary students consciously cross to the other side of the street.
What a grudge!
How much money did that bastard Luo Yao give these people!
Just wait, once I get through this, they'll have their day!
"Where did he go??"
"I don't know, we chased him from over there, we clearly saw him getting to this floor, but then he vanished."
"Did he hide inside? Let's go in and check!"
"Hey, do you not want to be part of this anymore, didn't you see this is the Martial Arts Hall?"
"Just asking should be fine, right?"
"Scram! Go look somewhere else," the youth with blue hair cursed.
For a moment, the crowd outside the corridor scattered.
But ultimately, one head cautiously peered in.
This door seemed to have some magic power, cleansing the impetuousness of the dominant youths outside, even making their tone somewhat more refined and amiable.
Could it be because of the figure who had just knocked them over?
"Elder Sister Cang Cang, have you seen a kid break in here?" the youth with blue hair asked.
"No, piss off!" the girl cursed without courtesy.
"That's how you talk to our Brother Feng..." one of the lackeys immediately started to yell.
However, the blue-haired youth slapped the lackey on the forehead, scolding, "How do you talk to Elder Sister Cang Cang!"
After scolding his lackey, the blue-haired youth immediately changed his attitude, speaking politely, "Then we won't bother Elder Sister Cang Cang any longer, we will look somewhere else."
"Chin Feng, after learning a bit from the teacher for a few years, you strut around the school, don't cause trouble for the teacher, got it!" the girl standing in the dim light said.
"No, no, it was just some classmates kidding around, we won't bother you any longer, Elder Sister Cang Cang," said the blue-haired youth politely.
A group of delinquent students quickly dispersed, and the corridor suddenly became quiet.
Ji Yun, hidden behind the curtains, noticed the outside had become silent, and then he slowly walked out.
This was a very spacious classroom, but rather than calling it a classroom, it was more like it had been arranged into a venue.
The range swallowed by the luminous day grew larger, and even though it was morning, there was a feeling as if the dusk of four or five o'clock was about to arrive. It gave a specially soft and bright light that fell into the dim venue classroom, casting its sheen on a girl with a graceful figure.
Her shoulder-length smooth black hair, a tightly fitting black vest that outlined her slender waist, gave off a soft yet resilient vibe; black shorts paired with exquisite athletic tights made her naturally long and straight legs appear even more perfect...
The reason Ji Yun initially felt like he had entered an anime scene was partly because of the unique light and setting, which was reminiscent of an anime martial arts hall, and more importantly, the girl in front of him bore an unreal beauty that seemed straight out of a manga!
All in all, Ji Yun's mind conjured up a character, Jerusalem, a teenage version of Tifa!
"Thank you for your help, female hero," Ji Yun said with a fist salute to her.
"Get out," the girl pointed to the door.
"They haven't gone far; let me hide a bit longer... Are you training here, female hero? That kick earlier was very professional, it knocked me down and retracted the power very well," Ji Yun said.
"Oh, you know about retracting force?" the girl asked with some surprise.
"Heh, I've played with friends before, mainly as their sparring partner," Ji Yun said.
While talking, Ji Yun tried hard to recall who this girl could be.
There indeed were a few notable figures in the high school period.
And of course, there was a villain's list!
Chin Feng, with his blue hair, was one of them.
Although Brother Xin with his brown hair was also quite strutting, in terms of background, he was no match for Chin Feng.
Even Chin Feng from the villain's list was very respectful to this girl—she was not simple!
The most important thing was her leg technique, which Ji Yun couldn't forget.
Absolute master!
And she might be a professional!
"I didn't really hold back with that kick earlier, but you, you're quite tough," said the girl.
Remembering that the blue-haired youth Chin Feng had called her "Elder Sister Cang Cang."
Could Cang Cang be...?
Shen Cangcang???
The girl who won the provincial championship for Lixue Middle School?
No, that's not right.
She hadn't won that glory yet.
It was a year later that she took the title!
Shen Cangcang, the person with the highest martial power in the whole school!
In Ji Yun's past life, he had had no interaction with this girl, only glimpsing her at a school commendation ceremony.
"When I'm free, I also go to the Free Fighting Gym... Why are you here alone?" Ji Yun answered the girl's question.
"So you've got some skills? Since they won't disperse anytime soon, to show my gratitude, how about I spar with you a few more moves?" Shen Cangcang said.
Shen Cangcang's enchanting eyes were crescents, staring directly at Ji Yun.
Whether one has had training could be felt from a single kick.
Shen Cangcang was in a bad mood; the people she had made arrangements with had not shown up.
She had been about to pack up and leave when a 'delivery' came to her, and he even looked confident and deserving of a beating.
During her regular training, just opening a window had let in the smell of those smoking kids, and she had long been holding a small grudge!
"This..." Ji Yun hesitated for a moment.
"Miss Heroine, I ran precisely because I didn't want to get beaten up..."
Besides, as a time-traveler, I know about the impressive achievements you're going to earn in a year, so stop pretending to be a pig in order to eat the tiger!
Wait a second, this girl is a pro.
And I'm just a professional amateur sparring partner.
Why not steal some skills from her? That way, next time I'm cornered, I can just swing my fists and fight!
I never had the time to learn before, and besides, the tuition fees are insanely expensive, but now it seems like I have all the time in the world...
"If you don't want to, forget it," said Shen Cangcang.
"Sure, I just don't want you to accuse me, a grown man, of bullying you," Ji Yun said with a smile.
"Is that so? I hope you can still talk like that later!" Shen Cangcang also smiled.
This guy has some tricks up his sleeve.
At last, I can stop holding back!
Shen Cangcang stretched her long legs, and her beautiful eyes squinted into sly fox-like lines as she pretended to wait nonchalantly for the boastful boy to put on his protective gear.
Humph, he probably has no idea who this lady is!
Ji Yun put on his headgear, the corners of his mouth lifting as well.
Champion girl, huh?
I'll show you what a time-traveler is capable of!
"Remember, we're only going for 3 minutes," Ji Yun checked the time, knowing that's all he had left.
Three minutes??
If you can last one minute, I'll shine your shoes for you!
With a fierce shout, Shen Cangcang launched a Taekwondo feint kick, and her straight, fragrant-breeze like beautiful legs made Ji Yun involuntarily retreat a few steps.
Feinting and striking, which jade leg would she use, and whether it would change mid-air...
Suddenly, Ji Yun executed a side step and a low duck, narrowly avoiding the large leg that flew directly at him!
This kick had a huge opening.
Ji Yun immediately closed in, aiming to knock her down.
However, Shen Cangcang's flexibility exceeded Ji Yun's expectations.
She was like a ballerina, able to leap again after landing on one leg!
"Smack!!!!!!"
A front somersault kick, directly landing on Ji Yun's shoulder and chest!
Ji Yun was kicked to the ground...
KO!!
"Is the floor cool?" Shen Cangcang asked, her words tinged with a hint of mockery.
Ji Yun was almost conditioned to respond to that phrase.
He glanced at his watch; it had only been a minute and a half!
For real?
Is the champion girl that fierce??
I was a human punching bag at the Martial Arts Hall for a few years, barely qualifying as an amateur fighter.
And I got KO'd by a high school girl!!
Is this what happens when an amateur challenges a pro's livelihood??
Is the gap really this big?
Ji Yun got up, wincing.
Clearly, the champion girl didn't hold back this time; my shoulder and chest hurt so much, I can barely lift my arm!
"That's enough, go to your class," Shen Cangcang pulled off her protective gear, no longer interested.
He had some training.
But still too amateurish, it's no fun bullying such a young boy.
Ji Yun moved his arm, the pain not diminishing at all.
"Those people are probably still squatting downstairs for me, let's go again," said Ji Yun.
"Are you sure?"
"Don't underestimate me!" Ji Yun flared up!
"Fine then."
...
"Bang!!!!!!"
A perfect shoulder throw, Ji Yun was pressed to the ground by Shen Cangcang's executed judo technique!
Although Ji Yun had never been pinned down by a girl before, at that moment, his mind wasn't on those matters, but rather, a great sense of shame swept over his body!
Am I really that bad!!
Despite my physical advantage, I was pressed and scraped against the ground.
Just one minute!!!
I lasted only one minute under Shen Cangcang's movements and postures!
I'm not really a man at all.
Girl Tifa didn't even break a sweat!!
Collapsed on the matted floor, gazing out at the dazzling light outside the window, Ji Yun knew his time had run out...
Just wait!
I'll be back!!
Next time, I'll make sure you're dripping with sweat!!
Pineapple pineapple me!!!!!!!
