Crash! Crash! Crash!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without mercy, the sound of shattering bones echoed from both men simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Around them, the crowd stood frozen in stunned silence; the entire cafeteria was dead quiet, save for the rhythmic thuds echoing outward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After two seconds of stillness, a furious roar erupted from Li Qun’s two companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they hadn’t been holding his arms, Li Qun wouldn’t have been defenseless, beaten like a slaughtered pig.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both men instantly released their grip—one reached to grab Fang Can, the other raised a fist to strike back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the first man’s grab was anticipated; Fang Can leaned back to evade it, while the second man froze mid-punch—sect rules forbade attacking newcomers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if they reported this to the Enforcement Hall, they’d have no grounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They started the fight over stealing money; even if they won, the blame would mostly fall on them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Heh—” Fang Can stepped back slightly, lips curling into a smirk: “Gentlemen, are you still going to continue?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two disciples hesitated, glancing at Li Qun—their leader’s face was swollen into a grotesque pig’s head, unconscious from the relentless blows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing their hesitation, Fang Can reminded them: “It seems you’ve made your choice; breaking the rules means punishment by the Enforcement Hall.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t get cocky—wait a month, I’ll settle this with you, damn it, I’m gonna beat your ass!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their faces twisted with rage, yet they clung stubbornly to their role-playing act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Can merely smiled brightly: “Since you’re so timid, I’m relieved. Remember—no retaliation, okay?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, Fang Can seized a solid wooden chopstick in one hand and charged straight toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, what are you doing?” Seeing Fang Can rush at them, the two men’s clenched fists instantly loosened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They couldn’t fight, couldn’t retaliate—forced to swallow their rage, they dragged Li Qun’s unconscious body out of the cafeteria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Phew!” Watching them flee, Fang Can halted and casually tossed the chopstick aside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hidden in his robe was the dagger he’d taken from those thugs back then—still unsullied by blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Still too weak.’ Fang Can gazed at the direction the men had vanished, gently clenching his fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The calloused knuckles, barely healed, had split open again from the relentless strikes; yet Li Qun was only severely unconscious. No wonder—he was a martial cultivator, his face was tough as leather.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Can scanned the surrounding disciples, all of whom were now frozen in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most were under twenty, trained daily in martial arts but never before witnessed bloodshed, let alone a newcomer overpowering three veterans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Fang Can’s gaze, most instinctively looked away—then realized how shameful that was, and defiantly glared back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ignoring them all, Fang Can turned, picked up his empty tray, got another meal, and returned to his corner to eat slowly and calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, no one would bother him.
