After hearing Fatty's mumbling, Lin suddenly realized who had arrived.
The person leading the group was Lü Liang, the one Fatty mentioned. Lü Liang was quite a figure; he was a classmate of both Fatty and Lin, and they were all at the stage of completing their compulsory education.
Although they attended the same school, the gap between Lin and his peers and Lü Liang was enormous, almost like a chasm.
Lü Liang's name was not only well-known in Lin's school but also resonated throughout the entire city and even across Azure Planet!
This was all because Lü Liang possessed enviable talent, classified as a top-tier talent of the highest level, truly a genius among geniuses!
Such a Lü Liang shone like the brightest star in the night sky, radiating dazzling brilliance.
There was no doubt that Lü Liang was the best in school. With his abilities, he was not only unrivaled in school but also regarded as the hope of Azure Planet for the past decade—a beacon to make Azure Planet shine once more.
As for why Fatty had any connection with someone like Lü Liang, even being rivals, there was a story behind it.
In school, aside from Lü Liang, Fatty had the strongest abilities. Despite how he appeared in front of Lin Mian, he was also a top contender in school and a dominant figure in the Martial Arts Department.
Every time there were grade-level exams, Fatty would always secure first place in the annual martial artist assessment!
Fatty achieved this first place because Lü Liang never participated in these assessments. Whenever the assessments occurred, it coincided with the Azure Planet competition. Each school could only send one representative, and as the strongest student, Lü Liang would naturally be chosen to compete.
Thus, every year Fatty would claim first place in the assessments.
However, Fatty felt extremely dissatisfied with this first place. Throughout five years of high-level compulsory education, he had taken first place on campus for five consecutive years but had never been called the top student; instead, he was referred to as "the perennial second."
This was all due to being overshadowed by Lü Liang. Fatty had to endure this humiliating title, which naturally left him resentful. Although he hadn't interacted much with Lü Liang, he had already harbored grievances in his heart.
"Isn't he quite impressive? I remember Lü Liang has another title—Talent Killer—right? It implies that all talents before him will be swiftly defeated by his own."
Lin squinted and whispered, feeling that the problem was becoming increasingly tricky, beyond his control, heading into an unknown darkness.
"Don't worry, brother. It's just Lu Liang. I don't believe he has three heads and six arms. Hmph, don't forget, I'm not a pushover either. I still have the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device."
Fatty was full of fighting spirit, holding the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device in his hand. He stepped forward, shielding Lin behind him, and faced Lu Liang's group with his head held high.
Although Fatty's words sounded impressive, Lin understood that resolving this matter wouldn't be that simple.
Lin fell silent, lowering his head to summon the Virtual Screen and began browsing the store secretly.
……
Meanwhile, on the opposite side, Lu Liang's sister, Lu Meimei, was embellishing the earlier incident, completely omitting her own provocative behavior and portraying Fatty as a lewd and unscrupulous wolf.
The young men nearby listened to Lu Meimei and looked indignant, as if they wanted to tear apart anyone associated with her.
To be fair, if Lu Meimei didn't wear such "non-mainstream" makeup, she would still be a beauty, which inevitably stirred protective feelings among those boys.
Looking at Lu Liang, however, he remained the calmest of all. His eyes were flat and tranquil like a still pond. At that moment, he resembled Lin when he was cooking.
After listening to her, Lu Liang turned to the girl next to Lu Meimei. His gaze changed to one of tenderness as he softly asked, "Wei, is that how it is?"
"No, no. Meimei wasn't that exaggerated; it was just an unintentional mistake..."
Wei stole a glance at Lu Meimei but ultimately lowered her head and quietly spoke the truth. She wasn't the type to lie.
"I understand."
Liu Liang nodded slightly, feeling more assured about the situation. He knew his sister's temperament better than anyone, so he didn't believe that Lu Meimei would be in the right.
What kind of person is Liu Liang?
He is completely opposite to Lu Meimei, possessing a personality that matches his sunny exterior—transparent like crystal, upright and incorruptible.
"Brother Liang, should we give that Fatty over there a beating?"
One of the younger brothers couldn't hold back and shouted loudly.
"Can you take him on? Take a good look at who that is across from us."
Liu Liang replied calmly, then turned to look at Lin and Fatty. His eyes remained cold, not as if he were looking at enemies, but more like observing two wooden stakes.
The group that had been focused on Lu Meimei finally came to their senses and took a closer look at Fatty. They soon realized that across from them was none other than "Eternal Second," Chen Youliang, Fatty Chen!
This blunder had escalated; they hadn't expected the school's "real boss" and "fake boss" to meet face-to-face.
The group that had just been shouting immediately quieted down; no one dared to make a move. They all understood that none of them were a match for Fatty Chen. Of course, Liu Liang was the exception.
From Liu Liang's earlier comment, it was clear he had already observed Fatty and Lin carefully. This was a good habit; even in chaotic situations, one must first understand the enemy.
Knowing oneself and knowing the enemy ensures victory in every battle; this is a habit that a skilled person should have.
"Brother, it's that Fatty who is bullying me! Help me beat him up! I don't care if he's the boss or second-in-command at your school; I know you can take him!"
Lu Meimei continued to fan the flames behind Liu Liang, acting as if she were in charge.
"Understood."
With a sigh, Lu Liang's indifferent face finally showed some emotion, his brows slightly furrowed and his eyes filled with helplessness. He had no way to deal with this pampered younger sister of his.
"Liang, could you not hurt them..."
Wei couldn't help but remind him again. She truly didn't think Fatty and the others had committed any serious wrongdoing and had been defending them.
"Sister Wei, what are you talking about? They were so outrageous just now!" Lu Meimei shouted again.
Lu Liang had no response. He gave Wei a look that conveyed reassurance.
At that moment, Wei lowered her head, unsure if she didn't want to argue with Lu Meimei or if she felt completely at ease because of Lu Liang's gaze.
Finally, it became quiet on this side, and everyone's attention turned to Lu Liang as he walked step by step toward Lin Ta and the others, appearing so calm, as if he were taking a leisurely stroll rather than facing enemies.
...
On the opposite side, Fatty felt his entire body tense up as he saw Lu Liang approaching. His usually sagging belly suddenly tightened.
Fatty's eyes were fixed on Lu Liang; even though he was merely walking over, Fatty could sense an imposing aura like that of a mountain.
It wasn't that Lu Liang's presence was particularly overwhelming; rather, it was the psychological pressure Fatty had accumulated over the years that had become a shadow.
With his left hand protecting Lin and his right hand tightly gripping the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device, Fatty's thumb pressed down on the protrusion of the device. That was the activation point for Inner Strength. As long as Fatty activated it with Inner Strength, the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device would soar into the air and become a formidable weapon!
Behind Fatty, Lin Yi kept his head down, his gaze darting around as he checked the Virtual Screen in front of him. His brain was racing to determine the best strategy for confronting their opponents.
Lü Liang walked to within three meters of Fatty and stopped, facing Fatty with an indifferent expression.
Fatty's hand gripping the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device trembled lightly, not only from excitement but also from an unacknowledged fear.
Lin lowered his head, ignoring the tense standoff between the two.
After observing Fatty for a moment, Lü Liang flatly said, "Chen Youliang, I know you are not the kind of person my sister described..."
"Uh?"
This statement caught Fatty off guard, and he nearly dropped the High-Energy Ion Scattering Device to the ground.
"However, you have still caused trouble for my sister, so I have to stand up for her. You must take one punch from me. Regardless of the outcome, I will let you all go, and this matter will be considered resolved."
Lü Liang's tone remained flat, but there was an undeniable firmness in his voice that made Fatty's heart tremble.
Fatty swallowed hard; beads of sweat formed on his forehead. His limbs felt numb and weak, as if he had lost all strength, making even the slightest movement difficult.
Just a brief encounter made Fatty realize that the gap between him and Lü Liang was not as close as the numbers one and two suggested.
The difference between those two numbers was like a chasm!
