Chapter 681: I Hate It Most When Others Gang Up on Me
Niu Ben stared blankly at Tang Rao for three seconds, and a lot can happen in three seconds.
Now, he had already called out to Lu Jun.
Hearing his name, Lu Jun looked utterly bitter, looking excessively wronged.
"Bro, can I not go? Can I just admit defeat? I really don't want to fight," Lu Jun said, seemingly trembling all over.
Tang Rao felt that something must have traumatized Lu Jun when he was younger, or perhaps he'd been beaten too badly before and developed a psychological shadow towards fighting.
Otherwise, there's no reason to be this scared.
"Xiao Jun, go on up, I'm telling you, if you don't, if you can't win, I won't include you in anything I do in the future. Also, forget about having any of my roasted chicken or kebabs," Tang Rao pulled out his trump card.
Just kidding, like I can't handle you.
Hearing Tang Rao's words made Lu Jun nearly cry.
This was an incredibly tough decision for Lu Jun.
"Xiao Jun, go on, I believe in you," Niu Ben tried to encourage Lu Jun.
"Well… okay then…" In the end, amidst the fierce urging from Tang Rao and Niu Ben, Lu Jun gave in.
Soon, Lu Jun stepped onto the arena, facing a burly man who looked exceptionally fierce.
Two meters tall, all muscles, seeming almost ready to explode. A square face covered in dark beard, with thick eyebrows and eyes as big as lanterns.
And crucially, he was holding a huge machete in his hand.
If you didn't say he was a butcher, probably no one would believe it.
While Lu Jun, petite, pale, tender, dressed in a white robe, was completely a cream-faced boy.
This extreme contrast really heightened the atmosphere at the scene.
Of course, many female disciples of the Kao Shan Sect were also dazzled; no help there, as Lu Jun had a handsome face and a good temperament, qualities many women liked.
"Elder Niu, you haven't answered my question just now," Tang Rao looked at Niu Ben off the stage.
"Oh oh, well… it's okay to fight, there's no rule against it, just..." Niu Ben looked at Tang Rao somewhat terrified, wondering if Tang Rao really intended to let Lu Jun fight everyone by himself?
Crazy…
"It's fine then!" Tang Rao smiled broadly.
On the stage, Lu Jun looked at the broad man, and the broad man sneered at Lu Jun.
Clearly, the broad man looked down on Lu Jun, no surprise there since Lu Jun looked too timid, his body shrinking, as if very afraid.
But Tang Rao felt that this was better for Lu Jun, showing weakness to deceive the enemy, would make it easier to pretend.
"Shorty, come, I'll finish you!" the broad man stretched out his hand and shouted at Lu Jun.
Lu Jun: "..."
"Our Earth Sect, challenges all other sect newcomers, to get it done in one go, no time to babble with you all! Everyone come on!" The next moment, a massive voice sounded.
Yes, it was Tang Rao who shouted.
On the stage, Lu Jun was utterly dumbfounded.
Of course, it wasn't just Lu Jun who was dumbfounded, but all the other Kao Shan Sect Disciples.
Challenge everyone? Wrap it up in one go? Did his brain get scooped out by a pig's trotter?
The key point is... the Earth Sect, isn't it the worst sect? This year they finally recruited two new members, damn, they couldn't help but start causing trouble.
"Good heavens, is the Earth Sect ready to give up for good?"
"What reckless abandon are you talking about? It's just seeking attention."
"Exactly, everyone knows what the Earth Sect is like."
"The Earth Sect has one fool and one madman, the new recruits this year must be an idiot."
"I think so."
…
"Bro, I don't want this, don't be like this!" Lu Jun shouted at Tang Rao, he wanted to jump down, but upon meeting Tang Rao's gaze, he was forcibly stopped.
"Scared of what? Didn't you say that this year's newcomers aren't up to much? Can't you beat them so bad their moms won't recognize them? Come on, no chickening out!" Tang Rao shouted loudly.
Lu Jun really felt like crying.
When did I ever say that, oh my god.
But upon hearing Tang Rao's words, the other sect's newbies couldn't stand it anymore; what does it mean that other newbies are no big deal? Damn, kid, you're pretty arrogant.
"Bastards, let's gang up on him!"
"I can't stand this, time to beat someone up!"
"Sect Master, since they've already said it, please allow it!"
Many people shouted loudly.
He Kaoshan looked at Lu Jun, then at Tang Rao. He narrowed his eyes, and finally nodded, "Allowed, go ahead, but limit to necessary contact."
"Yes!"
In an instant, over sixty people rushed to the stage.
The stage was large, and though there were over sixty people, it wasn't too crowded. These people surrounded the stage, trapping Lu Jun in the middle.
Lu Jun: "…"
"Hey, Lu Jun, knock them down, these scum, one punch for each, flip them all over." Tang Rao shouted.
"Damn, too arrogant!"
"Exactly, beat the crap out of him!"
"Just one word: Fight!"
Over sixty people, all struck out, various weapons and different cultivation techniques, it was truly dazzling, and Lu Jun was completely overshadowed in a moment.
It was impossible to see what was happening inside.
"Tang Rao, there won't be any problems, right?" Niu Ben was still very worried.
"What problems could there be?" Tang Rao shrugged, a rank one Heavenly Immortal, if he got beaten by those rank one, two, and at most rank five Earth Immortals, then Lu Jun might as well not live.
What's the point of living, that'd be so embarrassing.
"Boom!" A few seconds later, a roaring sound came from the stage.
Then, a figure flew out, didn't even grunt, and fell off the stage immediately.
Of course, it wasn't Lu Jun, but one of the over sixty people.
Before anyone could react, another boom, and yet another figure flew out.
Boom boom boom boom!
Continuous explosions sounded, those over sixty people, one after another, flew out of the stage.
What a spectacle, like blossoming lotuses!
"Really exhilarating!" Tang Rao smiled gleefully.
As for the others, they were all dumbfounded, what the hell is going on.
So many cultivators, including some rank five Earth Immortals, even a rank six Earth Immortal might not be able to withstand it.
Even a rank seven Earth Immortal would probably struggle.
What kind of strength does that Lu Jun have, oh my god.
"Get away from me." From the stage, Lu Jun's roar was heard.
Boom!
A surge of power erupted, and all the remaining people were knocked back, instantly defeated.
On the stage, only Lu Jun was left.
Lu Jun's hair was a little messy, but his clothes didn't even have a crease.
At this moment, Lu Jun was glaring, looking very angry.
"I'm telling you, I hate it the most when people gang up on me!" Lu Jun shouted, with some bloodshot in his eyes.
Tang Rao smirked, it seemed, Lu Jun was often bullied by groups in his childhood.
That was his psychological shadow.
Being bullied often in childhood, some people become irritable, fierce and sinister; but then, some become weaker, less resistant, and clearly, Lu Jun belonged to the latter.
What Tang Rao did, was to force him, force him to vent out.
