Ba Yi's loud voice made Pai Tun lose face completely.
"You're asking for it!" Pai Tun shouted furiously, smashing his fist onto the square table, splitting it in half with his powerful blow.
"Crash!"
The tableware shattered all over the floor.
"Wham!"
He then grabbed half of the broken table and swung it at Ba Yi.
"Watch out!" I quickly moved and pushed Ba Yi away.
"Smack!"
The wooden plank struck my left arm, breaking into two pieces.
At the same time, Ba Yi was pushed to the ground, knocking into several people at the neighboring table.
"Ah!"
The restaurant descended into chaos, with everyone screaming and running away.
"Pai Tun, you've gone too far!" Wrench couldn't take it anymore and delivered a right hook to Pai Tun's right cheek.
"Bah! You Chinese midgets, all three of you come at me. I don't want people saying I bully the weak!" Pai Tun spat on the ground and started fighting Wrench.
"...Damn, it hurts so much."
I shook my left arm, feeling a burning pain. If I hadn't trained in martial arts since childhood, that hit might have crippled my arm.
"You son of a bitch, dare to hit your grandpa..."
Ba Yi scrambled to his feet and lunged at Pai Tun.
"Boom!"
Before he could get close, Pai Tun kicked him two meters away. Ba Yi clutched his stomach in pain, unable to get up.
Wrench seemed to struggle against Pai Tun's Muay Thai, becoming increasingly exhausted.
No one dared to intervene or break up the fight. Everyone knew better than to get involved in such conflicts—one could easily get injured or even killed.
"Spanner, today I'll cripple you so you can never fight again! Hahaha!" Pai Tun's attacks grew more vicious, using dirty tricks to target Wrench's weak spots. If not for Wrench's agility, he might have already been taken down by Pai Tun's low blows.
I watched for a dozen moves but couldn't find a good way to counter Pai Tun. His moves were brutal, targeting vital points without any regard for martial ethics.
In contrast, Wrench's traditional techniques were less effective against such ruthless methods.
If this continued, Wrench would be at a severe disadvantage.
In terms of strength, size, and ruthlessness, Pai Tun had the upper hand.
His punches were powerful enough to be fatal.
"Smack!"
Pai Tun suddenly aimed a heavy punch at Wrench's chest.
"Watch out!" I grabbed a wooden plank from the ground and stepped in.
We couldn't face him head-on; it would only result in mutual destruction.
"Smash!"
The plank shattered, and Wrench was knocked back several steps, falling to the ground.
"Hahaha, Chinese trash! Is that all your kung fu can do?" Pai Tun laughed arrogantly as Wrench and Ba Yi lay on the ground, giving us a thumbs-down to insult us.
"Damn you, no martial ethics..."
Ba Yi struggled to his feet, clutching his stomach and cursing.
Wrench clutched his chest, painfully signaling me to stop fighting.
He won't push further if he feels satisfied, otherwise, things will escalate badly for us.
"Hey, are you going to hide like a turtle?" Pai Tun taunted me with a middle finger.
Everyone in the restaurant focused on me.
A person can be killed, but not humiliated!
I didn't want to stir up trouble, but Pai Tun kept provoking me.
There are limits to tolerance.
"Peace, don't..." Wrench got up, trying to stop me from continuing.
We must not fall into Pai Tun's trap.
"Heh, we'll see if I'm a turtle after a fight. Pai Tun, you asked for this, don't blame me for being merciless."
I turned calmly to face the larger Pai Tun, ready for a fight.
"Chinese kung fu, bah!" Pai Tun spat on the ground and said arrogantly, "I'll cripple all of you today. Come at me, don't waste my time."
"I don't need help. My master taught me that kung fu is for fighting injustice, and now, it's for dealing with scum like you. Pai Tun, let's go!"
I assumed a Tai Chi stance, ready for a life-or-death battle.
"Kneel down and die!"
Pai Tun charged at me, aiming a punch at my face.
I sidestepped and used a Tai Chi move to grab his thick arm and throw him forward.
But he didn't budge.
I quickly let go.
"Boom!" He threw another punch.
I kicked over a table towards him.
"Smash!"
Pai Tun kicked the table in half with his leg, impressing everyone with his strength.
As he kicked the table, I spun around and struck his left knee with my heel.
"Crack!"
A clear sound echoed through the restaurant.
I thought Muay Thai fighters had unbreakable legs, but I was wrong.
"Ah! You tricked me!"
Pai Tun roared, lunging at me with a powerful punch, trying to overpower me.
Seeing his relentless charge, I used a Tai Chi move, channeling force from my legs through my body.
The punch I delivered was incredibly powerful, hitting his arm and side, sending him back five or six steps.
Before he could recover, I kicked his chest with a Tai Chi stomp.
"Wham!"
Pai Tun flew five meters and landed heavily on the ground.
"Cough, cough."
That kick exhausted me completely. If not for Wrench and Ba Yi supporting me, I would've collapsed.
I used all my strength; if he's not dead, I must not have eaten enough.
"You, you..."
Pai Tun lay on the ground, staring at me in disbelief.
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"You what? Chinese kung fu is better than you," I retorted, holding onto Wrench and Ba Yi to stay upright.
"Wow!"
Pai Tun spat out more blood and then stopped moving, eyes still fixed on me.
He was dead.
"Bravo!!"
The restaurant erupted in applause and cheers.
"He's finally dead."
I smiled weakly, sitting down with their help. My hands were trembling, and my arm was swollen.
My legs were shaking uncontrollably.
"Someone's dead, Pai Tun is dead, call for help!"
Someone shouted, and the onlookers ran out screaming.
Outside, Liu Eleven and his henchmen were rushing towards us...
