I think this guy is just tough, but if we hit him a few more times, he’ll go down,\" another strong man said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen revealed an evil grin, thinking to himself that hitting him a hundred times wouldn’t harm him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just when those two lost focus while talking, Ye Chen seized the moment to deliver a punch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fist came with the wind, attacking the two strong men, and when they tried to dodge, it was already too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bang bang,\" the two strong men were knocked away, hitting hard against the wall, feeling like their ribs had been broken by Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pain was so intense they dared not breathe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their two companions defeated, the other strong men stared intently at Ye Chen, not daring to let down their guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kid, you’re really a tough fighter, you’ve already hurt four of our brothers,\" said the bald strong man, looking at Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not bad, you might as well come and meet your fate,\" Ye Chen said disdainfully, gesturing with his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re asking to die, kid, your big talk will soon show its consequences,\" said the bald strong man angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen felt speechless too; these guys only knew how to talk tough and scare people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the remaining strong men were not pushovers, exchanging glances and understanding each other with a smirk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen stood calmly, thinking that if the enemy didn’t move, he wouldn’t move either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, look at what moves those four plan to use; indeed, the four of them coordinated seamlessly, with two attacking from below and the other two from above Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Capable indeed, this’ll be more interesting,\" Ye Chen thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He certainly couldn’t afford to be hit; if he hit the ground, he’d have no chance of winning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen thought to quickly escape the battle circle, giving himself the opportunity to defeat them one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strong men knew Ye Chen’s intentions all too well, refusing to give him the chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The situation remained with two sweeping at Ye Chen from below while the other two swept from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kid, remember, big talk comes at a cost,\" laughed the bald strong man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because he thought that with their attack style, no one could withstand this, let alone the weak Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen smirked coldly, his feet moved, and before anyone realized it, he was out of the battle circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, the strong men’s voices rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who hit my leg?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t hit my arm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My stomach, it’s killing me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Ye Chen was too fast, and when he left the battle circle, the strong men hadn’t reacted yet; they kept on swinging, but inadvertently hit their companions, leading to the scene above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When did that boy escape?\" the bald strong man questioned, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t know, I thought I was hitting him,\" another strong man replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen stood watching like he was enjoying the show and laughed: \"While you were hectically hitting each other, I’d already gotten out and watched quite a show from the side.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You brat, daring to fool me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strongmen, tricked by Ye Chen, wouldn’t let it rest, rushing toward Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they had just hurt each other and were wounded, plus Ye Chen’s movements were swift.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a single encounter, those strongmen were kicked away by Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One, two, three, four.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang bang bang bang, the four strongmen fell like sandbags, coming as fast as they left, all crashing to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of Ye Chen lay the fallen strongmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they were filled with anger and resentment, they couldn’t help it, now unable to even get up, let alone defeat Ye Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Seeing your muscular builds, you can’t take hits at all; boring,\" Ye Chen shook his head, displaying a disappointed expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those strongmen felt very frustrated upon hearing this; they were flesh and blood, how could they take hits?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Ye Chen’s strength was simply immense; with just a kick or punch, it felt like their insides would shatter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they looked at Ye Chen, their eyes held a hint of fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone couldn’t understand why Ye Chen was unscathed, clearly having been hit a few times, yet seemed completely unharmed, like he’d just appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Get up, get up, let’s continue fighting,\" Ye Chen said to the strongmen lying on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t had a good workout in a long time; fighting so fiercely felt great, and just as he was getting into it, his opponents fell motionless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those strongmen heard him and were nearly crying, thinking that guy must be inhuman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Leopard stood at the alley entrance, smoking and listening to music leisurely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought as long as they settled this kid, he’d get fifty thousand; this deal was really worthwhile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after waiting a long time without seeing his men come out, he thought why must the guys be so brutal, the opponent was just a youngster, a good scare should suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Leopard was eager to go to the bar for a drink, so he decided to check on his men’s situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Originally, he thought Ye Chen had been beaten up beyond recognition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He walked and said, \"That’s enough, a good scare is all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he heard no response, and the further Brother Leopard walked, the more apprehensive he felt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside was silent and eerie; actually, it wasn’t that they didn’t want to speak, but they were threatened by Ye Chen, afraid to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They knew Ye Chen was ruthless; if they displeased him, there was a real chance of losing their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with choosing between their boss and survival, the latter was obvious; they weren’t foolish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Leopard tossed his cigarette butt on the ground and put his phone in his pocket, sensing something amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, there wasn’t a sound from his men, nor any noise of fighting, it was unnervingly quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Brother Leopard entered the alley and saw the sight, he was dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There stood Ye Chen unscathed, while his men lay on the ground, clutching arms, holding stomachs, and grabbing legs, creating a truly dismal scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ye Chen looked at Brother Leopard and asked with a smile, \"Surprised, or what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1174,"2026-06-03T08:13:09.113Z","2026-06-03T08:13:14.205Z",1,"novelbin.me","2639e85e3840eea3fa0819f1a7b398380d6bdc35c50ad6bb7d0d625f460748c9","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1140","starting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-chapter-1138",1261,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-as-the-president-of-a-billionaire-group-cover.jpg"]
