If you slap me, the whole world will suffer the same harm.

The mall's interface was glittering with gold, and the goods inside were dazzling, making Lin Chen's eyes widen.

There were so many things that Lin Chen was overwhelmed.

His current masochistic value is exactly 100,000. It increased by 100,000 after the beating he just received, but then stopped. It's probably because there were only a few dozen people on the other side, and the damage had already reached saturation.

Lin Chen touched his face, which was swollen like a steamed bun, and browsed through the system shop for a long time before finally focusing his attention on the Physique Enhancement Pill.

"Health is the foundation of everything! Improve your physical condition first, so you can withstand being beaten later!"

He gritted his teeth and directly exchanged for ten physique enhancement pills, instantly clearing his 100,000 masochistic points to zero.

Ten golden pills appeared in the system warehouse, each about the size of a thumb, radiating an alluring glow.

Lin Chen swallowed hard, forcing himself not to eat it immediately...

Right now, more than two thousand people from both schools are fighting right below him. The teachers from Shanshi High School are definitely hiding in the shadows watching, so he can't expose the existence of the system at this time.

"I'll eat when we get back..." Lin Chen licked his lips and closed the system warehouse.

Just then, a thunderous roar resounded throughout the school gate.

"Stop it, all of you!!!"

A powerful pressure descended from the sky, pressing down on everyone. The more than two thousand people who were fighting stopped at the same time, feeling as if a huge rock was pressing on them, making it difficult to even breathe.

A middle-aged man in a black trench coat walked out of Shanshi High School, followed by more than a dozen teachers, each of whom had a face so ashen that it looked like water could drip from it.

"Shi Potian, the principal of Shanshi High School." Long Xiaotian gritted his teeth as he got up from the ground, spitting out a mouthful of bloody saliva.

At the same time, people from Shimizu High School also arrived.

Dean of Students Li Tieshan led a group of teachers out of several cars. Looking at the mess in front of him, the muscles on Li Tieshan's face twitched several times.

"Long Xiaotian! Feng Ling'er! Bai Ye! And all of you... Explain to me what exactly happened?!" Li Tieshan's voice trembled.

Long Xiaotian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pointed at Lin Chen who was still hanging on the flagpole, and said in a hoarse voice, "Our man has been captured, we've come to rescue him."

Principal Shi Potian followed his finger and saw Lin Chen hanging from the flagpole with a bruised and swollen face. He couldn't help but twitch his lips.

He turned to his students and asked, "Who hit this guy?"

A group of boys from Shanshi High School lowered their heads and remained silent.

Liu Xiaoxiao, covering her bitten face, stood up with a wronged expression: "Principal Shi! This person suddenly ran over and kissed me! And bit my face! He's being a pervert! (╥﹏╥)"

Shi Potian was stunned, then turned to look at Li Tieshan.

Li Tieshan felt his blood pressure spike to 280 in an instant.

"Lin Chen," he gritted his teeth and spat out each word, "explain to me why you were harassing the female students at Shanshi High School?"

Lin Chen was hanging from the flagpole, his swollen mouth parted, and he smiled.

"Because I...want to get beaten up."

The entire room fell silent.

More than two thousand people, including more than twenty teachers, all looked at Lin Chen as if he were crazy.

Shi Potian remained silent for a while, then turned to Li Tieshan and said, "Shouldn't your Qingshui High School... strengthen its students' mental health education?"

Li Tieshan covered his face: "...It's already being arranged."

Finally, under the guidance of the two principals, the students from both sides returned to their respective teams, the injured were sent to the infirmary, and the uninjured lined up.

Shi Potian stood under the flagpole, looked up at Lin Chen who was still hanging there, and waved his hand speechlessly. The rope snapped, and Lin Chen fell down, only to be caught by Long Xiaotian.

"Teacher," Liu Xiaoxiao said, covering her scratched face, as she walked up to Li Tieshan. "I have a question."

Li Tieshan sighed: "Speak."

Liu Xiaoxiao pointed at Lin Chen, then at the more than a thousand bruised and battered Qingshui High School students behind her, and asked, word by word:

"Could you tell us, who exactly is this guy named Lin Chen? Why would over a thousand of you come all the way from Qingshui Town to Shanshi Town to get into a brawl for him?"

Li Tieshan remained silent.

Shi Potian also fell silent.

The students at Yamashi High School all perked up their ears... They were also very curious: how could a good-for-nothing who hadn't even awakened any superpowers get all the senior students from Shimizu High School to come out of their way to save him?

Even Lin Chen, who was hanging on Long Xiaotian's back, had an innocent expression on his face.

Long Xiaotian gritted his teeth, looked at Shi Potian, then at the group of bruised and battered students from Shanshi High School, and said coldly:

"None of your business."

After saying that, he carried Lin Chen on his back and turned to walk towards the bus.

More than a thousand students from Shimizu High School followed behind like a defeated army that had just withdrawn from the battlefield, their faces bruised and swollen.

Everyone who passed by the gate of Shanshi High School glared fiercely at the students.

The students from Shanshi High School glared back defiantly.

Only Lin Chen, lying on Long Xiaotian's back, showed a happy smile.

Because he finally found a way to become stronger.

The bus bumped along in the night, and the atmosphere inside the carriage was even colder than the cold wind outside.

Lin Chen was seated in the middle of the last row of the bus, with Long Xiaotian on his left, Bai Ye on his right, Feng Ling'er and Bing Qing in front of him, and Ying Ren standing behind him.

To be precise, Shadow Blade was hanging upside down on the roof of the car, its eyes fixed on Lin Chen in the shadows, like a bat ready to pounce at any moment.

There were 20 buses full, carrying over a thousand people, and no one spoke.

But everyone's eyes were fixed in the same direction.

Lin Chen felt as if he were being targeted by more than a thousand knives at the same time, each gaze capable of piercing a hole in him.

He shrank back, trying to make himself less noticeable, but his bruised and swollen face was particularly eye-catching under the headlights, making it impossible for him to keep a low profile.

Finally, Long Xiaotian spoke.

His right eye was swollen shut, dried blood still clung to the corner of his mouth, and his once vibrant red hair was now a tangled mess.

"Lin Chen".

"Here!" Lin Chen sat up straight reflexively.

"Regarding what happened today," Long Xiaotian slowly turned his head, staring at Lin Chen with his left eye, which was still open, "you had better give me an explanation."

Lin Chen opened his mouth, but before he could speak, Feng Ling'er turned around from the front row.

Her once-proud long silver hair was now pulled into a tangled mess, and there were three scratches on her face from her fingernails. Her once fairy-like face now looked like she had just had a fight with a cat.

"What are you doing at Shanshi High School?" Feng Ling'er's voice was calm, so calm it was unsettling.

"I...I'll go take a look..." Lin Chen guiltily looked away.

"A visit?" Bingqing raised her hand coldly, a clear bite mark on her arm... it was unclear which girl from Shanshi High School had bitten her. "Does a visit require hugging someone's school beauty and taking a bite?"

"That...that was my accident..."

"Accidentally?" Shui Miaomiao peeked out from another row of seats. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, her skirt was wrinkled and covered in mud, and her voice was trembling.

"You accidentally beat over a thousand of us to a pulp! Look at my face! Look at it! (;´༎ຶД༎ຶ`)"

She pointed to a bruise on her cheek, tears welling up in her eyes again.

Lin Chen lowered his head guiltily.
