Reborn to be a God of Reading

C4 – The Power of the Taiji Fist Technique

“I don’t want to waste my time with you. I hope that you can still be so stubborn in the future!”

Gregory turned his head and said to a very hooligan youth, “Cousin Gerald, I want to break his teeth and see if he can continue to be so eloquent.”

Gerald took a step forward, and his aura became very powerful. He looked at Lachlan with disdain, as if he was looking at an ant.

His gaze was cold and stern, “You better cut off his tongue, so that he won’t make a ruckus in the future!”

Gregory praised, “You are indeed my cousin. You are really ruthless!”

“But if we attack too heavily, will he die?”

Before Gregory could finish his sentence, Gerald laughed loudly.

“Don’t worry. Mr. Claude will protect me. No one in Ellsworth High School will interfere with his matters!”

“Mr. Claude? Are you talking about Claude from Grey Devil Soldiers?” Gregory asked carefully.

“Don’t casually discuss my big brother!”

The youth pretended to be low-key.

However, he looked very arrogant.

“This is awesome!” Gregory revealed an envious expression.

Lachlan said, “Gregory, since I can make you get expelled from the school, I can send you to prison. I hope you don’t delay yourself.”

However, Gregory thought that Lachlan was afraid of begging for mercy, so he was naturally very arrogant.

“Lachlan, as long as you kneel down and apologize to me, kowtow, and go to school to admit that you plagiarized me, I will consider only breaking your teeth!”

Gregory continued, “If my cousin makes a move, you won’t be able to keep your tongue.”

Lachlan looked around.

To be honest, the skills of the subordinates that Gerald brought with him were not very good.

They were all students who had dropped out of school halfway. Some of them were not even strong enough.

“Do you want them to hit me?”

“Who is your backer?”

Gerald’s face darkened.

Since Lachlan looked so calm, he must have a very powerful backer. He wanted to know Lachlan.

“I am a righteous person!”

“Are you messing with me?” Gerald was displeased.

“If you want to fight, then do it quickly. Don’t hesitate.”

A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Gerald’s face. “Brothers, attack him! Gregory, you go and hit him too. Remember to fight with all your might!”

“I know, cousin.”

In an instant, Gregory and a few of his subordinates quickly rushed towards Lachlan.

“Gregory, you’re too shameless!”

Instead of retreating, Lachlan rushed into the crowd.

Lachlan did not run but rushed in instead, revealing a cruel smile.

He knew Lachlan too well. Lachlan was a very weak man.

Today’s outcome was destined to be extremely miserable for Lachlan.

This was the first time Lachlan had fought in his life. He did not dare to be careless.

The moves of the Taiji Fist kept echoing in his mind.

Suddenly, a fist was about to hit his face.

This fist was extremely fast, catching him off guard.

If this was before, Lachlan would have definitely been hit. These hooligans often fought, so they were very experienced. Their punches were steady and accurate.

However, ever since Lachlan had raised his cognitive energy, his reaction speed had greatly increased.

In Lachlan’s eyes, this punch was extremely slow. He could easily dodge it.

Lachlan tilted his head and dodged the punch, then began to counterattack.

A small hooligan’s nose was bleeding, and he fell to the ground, losing all his fighting strength.

“When did Lachlan become so powerful?”

When Gregory saw this scene, he felt very scared, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.

As expected, Gregory suddenly felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

Gregory spat out a mouthful of blood and a few teeth.

After fighting for a while, other than Lachlan, the other hooligans all fell to the ground, wailing incessantly.

“Didn’t you want to break all my teeth? Then I’ll let you have a taste of this feeling!”

“Cousin, save me!”

As Lachlan walked towards him step by step, he was filled with fear.

“Stop! If you want to beat Gregory, you have to defeat me first.”

Gerald’s face was gloomy. Lachlan’s combat strength had far exceeded his expectations.

He looked at Lachlan with incomparable focus.

This battle seemed to be very difficult.

But, how could I be afraid?

I should be able to deal with Lachlan.

Gerald’s left foot slightly moved to the side, and all the strength in his body gathered on his left arm.

The muscles on his arm and thigh tightened and accumulated infinite strength.

Gerald’s nose instantly started to bleed, and he felt extremely dizzy.

“Why are you playing so many tricks? I can beat you with one punch!”

Gregory looked at his cousin, who was lying on the ground and twitching, and knew that he was done for.

“Lachlan, we are classmates. You can’t kill me!”

“If I were the one who fell to the ground, would you let me go? Would you care about our friendship?” Lachlan asked.

Gregory was silent. It was obvious that he would not do that.

Then, Gregory felt that he was about to die.

The teeth in his mouth were falling off one by one, and he was in so much pain that he was tearing up.

“Lachlan, don’t hit me anymore. If you hit me again, I will kill you.”

Gregory begged with a face full of blood.

“You should have thought that you would end up like this the moment you betrayed me.”

With his last punch, Gregory fainted.

Lachlan wiped the blood off his hands, but he couldn’t help but feel excited.

Gerald was a famous hooligan in the vicinity of Ellsworth High School, and he was also an expert in fighting.

With the help of his system’s fist technique, he could actually defeat him easily.

If he could master those peerless techniques, wouldn’t he become the most powerful person in the world?

The next day, when he arrived at school, the classroom was very noisy.

However, the topic of everyone’s discussion was always about Lachlan.

“Lachlan actually defeated Gregory. It turns out that Lachlan and Gregory seem to have a good relationship, but that’s just an illusion. Gregory was the one who kept threatening him.”

“That kind of person is too outstanding. He is very shrewd.”

“Have you heard? This time, Lachlan’s goal is to get the first place in the whole city. Can he fulfill this goal? Moreover, the teacher who gave the exam paper admitted that Lachlan is a genius.”

“He is too powerful!”

A person suddenly said, “Stop talking, Gregory is here.”

Sure enough, Gregory slowly walked into the helplessness. His mouth was covered with bandages, and he was seriously injured.

Behind Gregory were two teachers. They were obviously afraid that Lachlan would take revenge on him when he was taking his personal belongings.

Gregory snorted coldly. How could he dare to take revenge on Lachlan now?

He was even afraid that Lachlan would hit him to vent his anger. He just wanted to leave the classroom as soon as possible.

“Gregory, you can leave after the results are announced.”

At this time, many students stopped him.

It turned out that he had set up a bet between Lachlan and Julius, hoping to get the last bit of value from Lachlan.

Lachlan’s odds were ten times higher than his, so he had received a lot of betting funds.

But now that the results were not out yet, it was impossible for the students to let Gregory leave.

Gregory said angrily, “Do you really think Lachlan can get the first place in the city? You are all a bunch of fools. Even if he didn’t cheat, he was destined to be Julius’s opponent. I want to see what kind of result Lachlan can get! I want you to be convinced that you have lost!”

Julius smiled from the side: “Gregory, if Lachlan loses, we will still reward you according to our agreement, because I’m happy!”

“Really?”

Gregory’s eyes lit up. If he could get 20,000 yuan, it would be a kind of compensation for him.

He acted like a spoiled child and said, “Young Master Hart, thank you.”

“We’re all friends. Don’t thank me! This time, I did my best. I think I can get more than 670 points.”

“Young Master Hart, you are really awesome. Your results are the best in the city!”

They were happily chatting, as if they already felt that Lachlan would definitely fail.

However, Lachlan was very calm. He had a faint smile on his face as he waited for the results to be announced.
