“I... I...”
A handsome boy, whose face was pale, teeth were clattering, and legs were trembling, stuttered, “I... bullied... Joseph... before!”
“Great!” Meng Lei nodded slightly.
Thud!
The handsome boy knelt down with a thud and slapped himself in the face. “I deserve to die! I’m a jerk! I shouldn’t have bullied Joseph! I am willing to apologize! I am willing to compensate! Just let me go! I beg you!”
“Compensate?” Meng Lei’s heart trembled. “If you think that everything will be okay by handing out some compensation after bullying someone, then what are we training for!?”
“10,000 gold coins! No! 30,000 gold coins! I am willing to give 30,000 gold coins as compensation! I guarantee that I won’t bully Joseph ever again!” cried the handsome boy, tearfully. He was just a step away from wetting his pants!
“30,000 gold coins? Do you think you are chasing away a beggar?” Meng Lei gave a cold snort. “I will let you off for 50,000 gold coins. Otherwise...”
“50,000!” exclaimed the handsome boy, his eyes betraying his pain. However, when he met Meng Lei’s indifferent gaze, he couldn’t help but shiver. “Okay! I am willing to give 50,000 gold coins as compensation!”
“Right!” Meng Lei nodded slightly and turned toward the remaining three.
“I am also willing to give 50,000 gold coins as compensation!”
“Me too!”
Two of them hurriedly expressed their intentions. Although the loss of 50,000 gold coins pained them greatly, they didn’t want to end up like Larry, who was beaten to the point that even his own mother would be unable to recognize him!
This was simply too pitiful!
“Hand over the money now!” commanded Meng Lei and reached out his hand.
“Yes, yes!”
The trio did not dare to be tardy, and promptly took out their magic crystal cards!
“Who is fighting in the dormitory?”
At that moment, a cold and angry roar resounded!
Chapter 55: Disciplinary Team’s Arrival, The Strongest
“Who is fighting in the dormitory?”
A cold voice resounded as several big burly men with huge axes on their backs angrily charged into the dormitory!
They were all wearing standardized armor, carrying the same halberd, and they had the same cold, emotionless gaze!
As soon as these people appeared, they exuded a powerful aura, making it hard for everyone to breathe.
Suddenly, a burly man pointed at Larry, who was kneeling on the ground, and exclaimed, “Skyles, isn’t this your brother!? What the hell? Why was he beaten up so badly?”
The brawny man referred to as Skyles did not respond. Instead, he looked at Larry solemnly. “What is going on?” His voice was extremely cold, with some traces of anger!
Whimper—
Larry looked like an aggrieved little daughter-in-law as he pointed at Meng Lei and screamed, “Brother... he... attacked... me... kill... this... cheap piece of... trash, I... want... him dead...”
“How dare you beat up my brother!”
Skyles’ eyes were cold. He looked at Meng Lei with a razor-sharp stare, his icy voice suppressing the limitless anger that was boiling inside!
The other burly men also looked at Meng Lei, feeling astonished. Skyles was like a mad demon when it came to protecting his little brother. This was a fact everyone knew!
Because of this, few people in the academy dared to provoke Larry. However, someone had the courage to do so, and he was just a young kid!
This was unexpected!
“That’s wonderful!”
“It’s the disciplinary team!”
“And Senior Skyles!”
“We are saved! We don’t have to pay any money!”
On the other side, the handsome boy and the two bullies, who had already taken out their magic crystal cards for Meng Lei, were overjoyed. They swiftly pulled their cards back!
“Senior Skyles, you have to avenge us!” The handsome boy cried, “This guy charged into our dormitory out of the blue and started beating up Larry. We don’t know how Larry offended him!”
“He is too much. Not only did he beat up Larry, he even forced him to kneel and apologize. Look at what Larry has become!”
“That’s right, senior...”
The three roommates burst into tears. They described Meng Lei as the evil-committing tyrant that deserved to die, while they were the innocent victims, who had suffered all kinds of grievances and bullying!
In fact, there was no need for them to complain about. Skyles had already seen his brother’s pitiful condition. He felt so angry that his lungs were on the verge of exploding. “I don’t care who you are or what your status is. Since you dared touch my brother, I will make you regret what you have done today!”
Meng Lei couldn’t hide his smile. “Your brother said the same thing just now. Look what happened to him!”
“Bastard!” Skyles was furious. An aura, many times stronger than Larry’s, erupted from him. It blotted out the sky and covered the earth, as it charged toward Meng Lei!
His aura was too terrifying, and just the pressure from its leaking energy waves made it difficult to breathe for Joseph, the handsome boy, and the rest. They ended up gasping for air!
“Brother... Meng Lei! What shall we do now?”
Joseph’s face was horrified, and his eyes betrayed his despair. As a student of the academy, how could he not know who Skyles was?
Skyles—the sixth-years’ chief representative, captain of the academy’s disciplinary team, strongest in the Great Axe Academy, and a personal disciple of the vice-chancellor!
It was no exaggeration to say that Joseph had spent his first six months in the academy just listening to Skyles’ legends!
And now, he had actually ended up offending this legendary character. How could he possibly fix this?
Joseph was in an utter state of despair!
However, he didn’t expect Meng Lei to remain calm and collected when faced with the terrifying Skyles. It was as if he was enjoying the breeze on his face, treating Skyles lightly!
