Chapter 69.2

T/N: We literally JUST got 750 stones within the last few minutes of the ranking week lol. I'll share the screenshot in comments if it lets me.

——————

Looking at the oncoming fist, Ying Ye Zhenshi smiled, stood up and blocked it with his left elbow, and then swung his right fist at the same time quickly, hitting his opponent directly on the head.

*Bang!*

It was a good head shot.

"Aghh!"

And this caused Sudou to become even more angry, as he began roaring and vigorously waving his fists, continuing to attack the boy in front of him.

"Huh."

But first, he was hit by several punches to the abdomen and throat, wherever it was most fragile.

He couldn't even swing his fists with all his strength because of the counterstrikes.

The continuous pummelling pushed Sudou back, as he could only defend his head now.

"Ah?"

The girls next to the duo screamed at this scene.

"Stop! Stop hitting him!"

Hirata, from the other end of the classroom, quickly rushed past the desks in the middle to get to them.

And in response to his pleas, Ying Ye Zhenshi gave one last kick to Sudou in the abdomen.

It made him want to vomit blood in bitterness all of a sudden, as it was very uncomfortable for him to have to bend and kneel in front of the guy he had ambushed.

"Stop!"

Hirata looked at Ying Ye Zhenshi with a livid expression on his face.

Why had the class become like this?

This was supposed to only have been the first month.

"Hirata-san, you have to at the very least be reasonable. I am obviously the victim of this assault. Everyone saw what happened just now. It was this random kid who suddenly attacked me from behind and gave me a fright. It is just an instinct to fight back. After he fell, I didn't mean to attack him any further."

Looking at Ken Sudou who was kneeling on the ground, Ye Zhen spoke with ease.

"I see, I'm sorry. But please don't come any closer. Please."

Hirata-san stood between the two of them, preventing them from getting anywhere near each other again.

In this regard, Ying Ye Zhenshi just smiled and spread his hands, as though to display that there would be no further action on his part.

"Ying Ye Zhenshi."

And this was the peak of humiliation in Sudou's eyes.

He struggled to stand up so that he could fight him again.

"Don't do this, Sudou-san."

But Hirata naturally refused to let him go and stopped him in his tracks immediately.

"Hey. Can't you see? It's not my fault and it's never been me at fault."

Ying Ye Zhenshi looked at the grounded boy, showing some disdain.

"Do you think that people will be afraid of you if you shout loudly? Only the punks on the street are like this, but you are not even half as capable as those punks. Whether it's within the rules or outside the rules, you are just as useless."

"I won't let you go!"

Ken Sudou, who couldn't stand being looked down upon by others, shouted, staring at Ying Ye Zhenshi with a bullish fixed gaze, looking like he was about to launch head-on into battle any moment now.

Behind him, Ike Kanji and Yamauchi Haruki, who had been vowing that they would hit Ying Ye Zhenshi and who encouraged Sudou to hit him, had withered into their seats.

They hadn't even stood up to approach and just watched all this from a distance.

They were a little worried and very scared.

They had all seen how the arrogant Sudou had been beaten one-sidedly to the ground.

This was not like the previous misunderstanding where he had casually dragged Ike down.

Originally they had planned to take the opportunity to say something, such as having Ying Ye Zhenshi hand over the 18 million or something along those lines.

Their thoughts had been very greedy.

But now?

They had just watched Sudou take a rough beating.

"Stop talking, Ying Ye-kun."

Hirata pulled Sudou Ken away and turned his head to look at Ying Ye Zhenshi.

There was a feeling of being implored in that gaze of his.

"Ying Ye-kum, please don't say anymore."

Even Kushida Kikyo looked left and right between the two and stood beside Ying Ye Zhenshi.

The scene had really scared her just now.

At first, she had thought that Ying Ye Zhenshi was going to be beaten.

She hadn't expected the boy to be so ruthless in his counterattack.

The two of them opened their mouths in plea, but Ying Ye would not shut up.

"He ambushed me out of nowhere. He also just threatened that he wouldn't let me go. How terrible. I will definitely sue him through the student council. When the time comes, let's meet with the student council."

Without giving Hirata any face at all, he opened his mouth to talk directly to Sudou again.

"You bastard. Come fight me again if you have the balls."

Sudo cursed when he heard this.

He had obviously still been complaining about how much pain he had been in earlier, but now he had recovered a little.

His physical prowess was really quite good.

"I will, but it will not be in a fight, but by abiding by the rules of this school. We do things the legal way, so you can rest assured that I didn't just get hurt for such a small matter, like some random conflict between classmates. I guess you will not even need to be suspended from classes. At most, we can have you apologise and compensate me with points and that should be enough to have me reconcile with someone like you. However, considering your surprising anger issues, which is something that scares me, I will not only sue you, but I will also give some advice to the student council. You have serious violent tendencies, so I do not think you are suitable to be a part of any clubs. I heard that you like basketball very much, right? Such a sport where you can easily get into conflict with others is not suitable for you, so we can just have you give it up. This is all for your own good. Others wouldn't be as easy-going as I am."

Ying Ye Zhenshi looked at Sudou with a smile on his face, and explained 'kindly'.

But the other students felt a little shudder run down their spines when they heard these words.

Who in the class didn't know that Ken Sudo took basketball very seriously?

If one asked him to study, he may not bother, but if they asked him to play basketball, he would give it his all.

Was he going to be expelled from the club now because of this?

What had even been the point of him fighting in the first place?

He would still have had a somewhat good time at school, no matter how miserable it was to live without points.

If things got really serious, the trouble should still have been his own.

Therefore, Ying Ye Zhenshi had come to a decision for the boy in question.

He would take away what he cherished most.

This was Sudou's punishment.
