Chapter 1108 - 1106: This Is Considered Light
"President Kōji Inoue, Mr. Mitsui Kazuo, we owe you our thanks for your generosity this time, which allowed our school to achieve a three-straight victory. Later on, we will also invite President Kōji Inoue and Mr. Mitsui Kazuo to speak, and I hope both President Kōji Inoue and Mr. Mitsui Kazuo will not refuse."
Ding Wan’er said with a smile to both men, it was their own fault for everything that had happened. If they hadn’t conspired against Yingbo University, then Lin Feng would not have intervened, so they were simply reaping what they sowed; nobody else was to blame.
Hearing Ding Wan’er’s words, Kōji Inoue’s face was incredibly embarrassed, and he was at a loss for words. His gaze turned towards Mitsui Kazuo, as such a decision was not his to make.
Mitsui Kazuo’s lips twitched, nearly spitting up blood, but he managed to suppress his rage and spoke to Ding Wan’er, "Dean Ding is too modest. It’s your school’s students who are exceedingly talented. As for the speeches afterward, I think they are unnecessary. The interactions between the two universities should focus on friendly exchanges; winning and losing are not important, and there is no need to make an issue out of it."
Watching Ding Wan’er and Lin Feng, Mitsui Kazuo was on the verge of going mad with anger, but with so many people around, including reporters, even though he was furious, he couldn’t show it and had to pretend to be calm and composed on the outside, while inside, his emotions were erupting like a volcano, with no choice but to suppress his anger.
Just as Mitsui Kazuo finished speaking and Ding Wan’er was about to respond, she was stopped by Lin Feng, who smiled at Mitsui Kazuo and said, "Mr. Mitsui Kazuo’s style is truly refined. Since you say winning or losing doesn’t matter, are you happy with your loss now?"
Lin Feng was never one to be polite to those who engaged in scheming and, now that it was said that winning or losing didn’t matter, he really wanted to see how Mitsui Kazuo would respond.
"You... you..." Mitsui Kazuo had not expected Lin Feng to be so brazen in front of so many people, and was left speechless, gasping for breath, with his finger pointing at Lin Feng, too angry to utter a word, his eyes revealing endless murderous intent. If looks could kill, Lin Feng would certainly have been cut to pieces by Mitsui Kazuo by now!
"My apologies, Dean Ding, Mr. Lin, we have other matters to attend to. We’ll talk about this later." Seeing that Mitsui Kazuo was about to explode, Kōji Inoue hastily said something and then quickly pulled Mitsui Kazuo away to avoid any further unpleasantness with Lin Feng.
Seeing the two men leave in such an embarrassing state, Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er exchanged smiles. This was the fate of plotters, and nobody else was to blame. They then continued to mingle among the guests.
Before long, the voice of the banquet’s host rang out over the lawn, "Esteemed guests, thank you for attending this banquet. The academic exchange between Dongjing University and Yingbo University was exceptionally successful, revealing the true strength of Dongjing University. Now, please welcome President Kōji Inoue of Dongjing University to speak."
The host had a way with words, and at that moment, applause erupted at the banquet, and everyone’s eyes were on Kōji Inoue, who suddenly felt like he could vomit blood. However, he had no choice but to steel himself and step forward.
"I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity for academic exchange with Tianhai University. The intent of this exchange was to narrow the gap between our two universities. It can be said that, overall, this exchange meeting was quite a success, with specific successes including several areas..."
Although Kōji Inoue was very angry, he had to hold back his discontent and say some non-committal statements to satisfy the reporters in front of him. If it weren’t for these reporters, he wouldn’t have taken the stage at all.
After speaking briefly, he found an excuse to stop and stepped down from the stage, immediately pulling Mitsui Kazuo away again, fearful that Lin Feng and Ding Wan’er would turn their attention to Mitsui Kazuo. Of course, Mitsui Kazuo understood this, and the two men made a hasty exit, intending to return once the reporters’ attention was diverted.
As Mitsui Kazuo and Kōji Inoue beat a hasty retreat, Ding Wan’er’s smile broadened, and she also saw a hint of a smile on Lin Feng’s lips. The two exchanged glances and laughed together. At that moment, the host called Ding Wan’er up to give a speech...
In the blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had passed, and Kōji Inoue and Mitsui Kazuo returned to the banquet. As soon as Kōji Inoue came back, he was surrounded by several reporters, while, out of boredom, Mitsui Kazuo headed towards a long table full of drinks, casually picked up a glass of red wine, and gulped it down.
Just as he had finished his glass of red wine, he suddenly saw Lin Feng approaching, which instantly fueled his rage, sweeping a cold gaze over Lin Feng and frostily said, "Kid, don’t get too smug. Soon, you’ll learn the consequences of offending me. You’d better pray you can live a little longer."
Lin Feng, upon hearing Mitsui Kazuo’s words, acted as if he hadn’t heard anything at all, not giving it any importance, treating Mitsui Kazuo as if he were invisible. He picked up a glass of brandy, tasted it, then casually took out his phone to fiddle with it.
Seeing Lin Feng ignore him like this made Mitsui Kazuo’s lungs nearly burst with anger. Pointing at Lin Feng, he was about to spew harsher words, but at that moment, Lin Feng suddenly lifted his eyes, swept a glance at Mitsui Kazuo, and said, "What did you say? Are you asking to be slapped?"
Originally, Lin Feng wanted to treat Mitsui Kazuo as if he were thin air, but he hadn’t anticipated Mitsui Kazuo bringing it upon himself. Since it had come to this, he was not about to hold back. With that thought, Lin Feng’s left hand holding the phone started to tap rapidly.
"Looking for a slap? Who do you think you are? Dare lay a finger on me? I’m the young master of the Mitsui Family; what are you...?" Hearing Lin Feng’s words, Mitsui Kazuo burst out, saying them angrily and impolitely, which he wouldn’t have done if there had been anyone around. But before Mitsui Kazuo could finish, something unexpected happened.
"Smack!"
Suddenly, a crisp and clear sound attracted the attention of all the guests present. To everyone’s astonishment, Mitsui Kazuo inexplicably flew into the air and then crashed to the ground!
What just happened?
Mitsui Kazuo was totally flabbergasted, staring at Lin Feng with a blank mind, lying on the ground like a wooden dummy. Knowing full well that Lin Feng had struck him, he hadn’t seen a thing. He questioned if Lin Feng was really human, or perhaps some kind of monster...
What just happened?
How did he fly?
...
For a moment, the entire venue fell silent, nobody expecting such an incident. Everyone was unclear about what had happened, how a person could suddenly get airborne. Was it this man before their eyes who had sent him flying? With this thought, everyone’s gaze turned to Lin Feng, only to find him holding a wine glass in his right hand and a mobile phone in the left, with no hands free to strike anyone. They were even more perplexed and could not figure out what was going on.
At the reception, only Xia Lalan, standing not far away, could vaguely perceive the situation. Indeed, it was Lin Feng who had slapped Mitsui Kazuo away. However, Lin Feng’s speed was simply too fast, the wine glass in his hand had not yet fallen, and after slapping Mitsui Kazuo, Lin Feng’s hand had returned to catch the wine glass mid-air!
Seeing this, a smile appeared on Xia Lalan’s face. Lin Feng’s strength made him an unbeatable existence in the Secular World. If it weren’t for Mitsui Kazuo being so detestable, Lin Feng would not have struck him. It was Mitsui Kazuo who had brought this upon himself.
At this moment, Mitsui Kazuo suddenly came to his senses, leaped up from the ground, and charged at Lin Feng like a madman, roaring, "You... you dare to hit me? What do you think you are? You actually dare to hit me!"
Mitsui Kazuo was truly losing it. He was the young master of the Mitsui Family, always the one doing the hitting, with nobody daring to lay a finger on him. Even speaking to him required the utmost courtesy, yet Lin Feng had dared to hit him in public. How could he possibly swallow this humiliation? He vowed to thoroughly deal with this damnable Lin Feng today!
It had to be acknowledged—Mitsui Kazuo had some skill. As a member of the Mitsui Family, he had been subjected to elite education from an early age, so his combat skills were quite good, roughly of an AA-level standard. That would be impressive under normal circumstances, but against Lin Feng, it was like comparing him to a kindergarten child. Thus, the outcome for Mitsui Kazuo was still quite pitiful.
A fight was about to break out!
Here comes the brawl!
This person is formidable, that speed...
...
Now everyone’s eyes were fixed on this side as they saw Mitsui Kazuo charge frantically towards Lin Feng, starting to worry for Lin Feng. Mitsui Kazuo’s speed was really fast, and his skills were clearly not bad. If hit, serious injury was likely!
At this time, when Xia Lalan saw Mitsui Kazuo rushing towards Lin Feng, she burst into laughter. With such paltry strength, he dared to challenge Lin Feng; it was the biggest joke in the world. So she stood in place, curious to see how Lin Feng would teach Mitsui Kazuo a lesson.
"What if I did hit you? That was still being lenient." Seeing Mitsui Kazuo charging again, Lin Feng shook his head and transmitted his voice directly to Mitsui Kazuo. He was indeed set on teaching Mitsui Kazuo a lesson today. He had dealt with many such waste before. Since Mitsui Kazuo was asking for it, it was not Lin Feng’s fault.
"Bang!"
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, before Mitsui Kazuo could even get close to Lin Feng, another muffled sound was heard. Mitsui Kazuo appeared to perform a back flip in the air. His body rolled over speedily, but due to the swift tumbling, before he could react, he went headfirst toward the ground, face down...
"Bang!"
The same sound resounded again as Mitsui Kazuo lay motionless on the ground, with fresh crimson blood flowing out. His injuries were visibly severe, causing the surrounding spectators to cringe, wondering what exactly happened to Mitsui Kazuo and how he could sustain such heavy injuries. Probably even his nasal bones were broken...
Just as everyone was baffled by Mitsui Kazuo’s condition, he suddenly moved and slowly got up from the ground. His face, which had been quite handsome, was now marred by several wounds and the continuous flow of blood from his nose, making him look exceedingly miserable, as if he had been beaten up by a group.
