I Have Countless Clones

Chapter 20: I'll Take It

Qian Hui screamed, but her voice was quickly suppressed by the commotion of the fight.

The six fighting men turned a deaf ear.

Crack!

Lin Shen's kick missed its target and hit the glass plate on the coffee table, instantly shattering a corner of it.

Since he started cultivating, this was the first time he had fought an opponent of the same level.

His previous opponents, be it Tian Dian or Yang Zhongyi, were two or three levels higher than Lin Shen.

Without relying on his clones, Lin Shen wasn't their match at all.

However, Zhou Zhihai was different. He was a Qi Transformation Stage Level 5 cultivator, and there wasn't a significant difference between his and Lin Shen's capability.

Furthermore, although Lin Shen didn't have much combat experience, he still faced a life-and-death battle. He had even taken a life. In terms of his mentality, he could easily crush someone like Zhou Zhihai, who usually only knew how to bully the weak.

The training sessions these days had given him considerable resistance to pain, allowing him to fight at will in battles.

Zhou Zhihai, on the other hand, would grimace whenever he took a punch. Sometimes he didn't need to dodge the attack, but he subconsciously did it because he was afraid of the pain.

In just a few minutes, Lin Shen had the upper hand and firmly suppressed Zhou Zhihai, who was restrained in his movements.

Zhou Zhihai was no longer as confident as he was in the beginning. All that was left was fear and astonishment.

Lin Shen's strength had far exceeded his expectations.

After taking another kick, Zhou Zhihai turned ashen. The anger in his chest finally suppressed his rationality. He activated the Blazing Sun Palm and attacked Lin Shen.

Although the others in the private room were also fighting, they had been paying attention to the battle between Lin Shen and Zhou Zhihai from the corner of their eyes. When they saw this, their expressions changed.

Although they were fighting, they still had some sense. They knew that they couldn't use martial arts techniques. Otherwise, they would be in big trouble if there were casualties.

No one thought Zhou Zhihai would be so furious that he would use the Blazing Sun Palm at this moment.

Even though he had only reached Beginner, if he wasn't careful, he might have severely injured Lin Shen!

"Watch out!"

Xu Yuan and Zheng Hongsheng shouted anxiously at the same time.

Lin Shen heard them, but his expression remained calm.

His training experience these days had made him accustomed to similar attacks. When he saw this, he calmly slapped out with a backhand and met the attack with the same technique.

Shockingly, when Lin Shen struck out with his palm, a scorching scarlet red wave of air surged, and it rolled forward like a tsunami. The air seemed to be scalded as it retreated rapidly to the sides, forming a distortion that was visible to the naked eye!

Compared to Zhou Zhihai's ordinary strike, the phenomenon produced by Lin Shen's strike was extraordinary.

Everyone in the private room was dumbfounded.

"His Blazing Sun Palm has reached Proficient!"

Zhou Zhihai's expression changed drastically. He immediately wanted to retract his palm, but it was too late.

Under everyone's watchful eyes,

the two palms collide heavily!

In an instant, they heard a miserable scream. Zhou Zhihai was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string. He landed heavily on the ground and held his wrist as he screamed.

Under the bright light in the private room, everyone saw his right palm seemed to have been burned by a red-hot iron. The skin on his palm was burnt and bloody, and there was a burnt smell in the air.

The Proficient Blazing Sun Palm was extremely powerful. When Lin Shen trained with Yang Zhongyi, he had to wear leather protective gear and strengthened ceramic plates before he dared to take Yang's Blazing Sun Palm head-on. Even so, he was still shaken as if his blood surged.

One could imagine what would happen if he took the strike without any protection!

Luckily, Lin Shen was using Perseverance, not Pure Yang Body at the time.

Even someone as strong as Tian Dian was severely injured by the Blazing Sun Palm of Clone 3.

As for Zhou Zhihai, his cultivation was far inferior to Tian Dian. Hit by the Blazing Sun Palm with the enhancement of the Pure Yang Body talent, he would most likely lose his right hand!

The fighting lot stopped at some point and stared at the scene in front of them.

The turn of the event exceeded everyone's expectations.

They had thought after Zhou Zhihai suddenly abandoned all scruples and used the Blazing Sun Palm, Lin Shen would be caught off guard and severely injured.

Unexpectedly, Lin Shen injured Zhou Zhihai!

Not only had Lin Shen's cultivation reached the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage, but he had also achieved Proficient in the Blazing Sun Palm!

Zheng Hongsheng and Xu Yuan looked at Lin Shen in a daze as if this was the first time they had met their good friend they had known for almost three years.

"Ah!!"

Zhou Zhihai clutched his injured palm and rolled on the ground, wailing.

The miserable screams quickly woke up their stunned companions. They couldn't care less about anything else. They hurriedly helped Zhou Zhihai up and wanted to leave right away.

"Wait a minute!"

Lin Shen said calmly.

The four boys stiffened as if someone had pressed the pause button.

One of them turned around stiffly and said with a trembling voice, "W-What else do you want…"

No wonder he acted like this. He was frightened by Lin Shen's strike.

Even someone as powerful as Zhou Zhihai was beaten to such a miserable state!

If Lin Shen didn't let them go, they would end up more miserable than Zhou Zhihai.

While he was trembling in fear, Lin Shen pointed at the messy private room and say calmly,

"Do you want to leave after destroying this place?"

The four boys were stunned. When they came back to their senses, they quickly took out their spirit coins and put two to three thousand on the coffee table. Then, they helped Zhou Zhihai to his feet and left in a hurry.

The private room quickly returned to silence.

Zheng Hongsheng, Xu Yuan, and Qian Hui looked at one another speechlessly.

There was a long pause.

Xu Yuan spoke slowly, his face full of guilt, "I'm sorry to have dragged you into this because of me."

"What are you talking about? It's not your fault. It was Zhou Zhihai who deliberately provoked you. Do you think we would just watch you get beaten up?"

Zheng Hongsheng patted Xu Yuan's shoulder, then looked at Lin Shen in surprise and clicked his tongue.

"You've hidden well, Lin Shen. I didn't expect you to have reached Proficient in Blazing Sun Palm. Even that Zhou Zhihai isn't your match. You've never given us any hints!"

Lin Shen could tell that Zheng Hongsheng wanted to change the topic to ease Xu Yuan's guilt and embarrassment, so he shrugged cooperatively and said, "I can't possibly tell everyone that I've reached Proficient in Blazing Sun Palm, right?"

Xu Yuan and the other two couldn't help but laugh.

Qian Hui looked at Lin Shen with admiration. "You're really amazing, Lin Shen. Not many people in the entire grade have your strength!"

Xu Yuan and Zheng Hongsheng nodded in agreement.

In the entire Willow Academy, there were only a handful of ordinary students who had reached the fifth level of the Qi Transformation Stage and Proficient in the Blazing Sun Palm.

Lin Shen smiled without denying it.

He had already set his goal to a higher level. Defeating a mere Zhou Zhihai was nothing to be proud of.

After such a thing happened, they weren't in the mood to stay here anymore.

Zheng Hongsheng picked up the spirit coins on the coffee table and went to discuss the compensation with the people of Blue Rose.

Xu Yuan leaned over to Lin Shen and whispered, "Zhou Zhihai is a petty person who seeks revenge for the smallest grievance. Hui broke up with him because she couldn't stand this. You injured him tonight, and he definitely won't take this lying down. He'll most likely seek revenge on you. You have to be careful from now on!"

After a pause, he sighed and looked guilty again. He opened his mouth to speak.

Seeing this, Lin Shen immediately raised his hand to interrupt.

"Don't say anything else."

Lin Shen smiled faintly.

"As for revenge, if Zhou Zhihai makes a move, I'll take it!"
