The opponents thought this young girl was extremely brave. She was alone, but they were a crowd, and each one of them was stronger than the little girl. Even if she had some skills, it was impossible for her to defeat so many at once.
Li Li and Lan Ning were very aware of Tan Rouâs strength, but Professor Guo and the others did not know, so they all ran to Tan Rouâs side, intending to give the young girl a helping hand.
Tan Rou said, âProfessor, please take your students aside to rest. Iâm afraid that when the fighting starts, I might accidentally hurt you.â
Professor Guo said, âNo way, there are so many of us standing here. How can we let you face danger alone?â
Li Li, however, said, âTeacher, you donât need to intervene. Tan Rou can handle them.â
Professor Guo didnât quite believe Li Liâs words. He thought Tan Rou was just a little girl. How capable could a little girl be? Besides, she looked slim and weak, hardly like someone who could fight.
âWe canât let a young girl face so many bad guys.â Professor Guo said righteously, âAlthough Iâm old now, I was very formidable in my youth.â
Li Li said with a smile, âTeacher, you really donât need to take action. Tan Rou is very powerful. Iâve never seen her lose. As long as sheâs here, the only one who will win is her.â
It wasnât that Li Li blindly believed in Tan Rou; Tan Rou was indeed powerful. No matter what the opposition was like, she would be the victor, as if with her presence, everything would go smoothly.
Tan Rou clenched her fists, and as her opponent approached, she threw a punch aimed at the stomach because Li Li had been hurt there, too. She wanted to take revenge for Li Li.
Aunt Wu obviously had some training; her stomach was very firm, so Tan Rouâs first strike did not do much damage.
âWell, now, youâve got some strength, young lady!â Aunt Wu felt her blood boiling, âI havenât fought in a long time. Iâll use you for practice today.â
Tan Rou adjusted the force in her hands and said with a light chuckle, âI underestimated you just now, but this time Iâll definitely take you down.â
Aunt Wu didnât believe it at all. She was much taller than Tan Rou and more robust, so she thought she couldnât lose. The rest of the Wu Family thought the same, which is why they merely watched from the side without intervening.
Tan Rouâs expression became very serious. When facing an opponent stronger than herself, she absolutely couldnât let down her guard, and she had to seize the right moment. Only by seizing the opportunity could she win with the greatest speed and least energy expenditure.
This time, she targeted a different area, knowing that arms are relatively fragile parts of the body and can easily be broken. So she started with a kick toward Aunt Wuâs right arm. Aunt Wu reached out to block but was hit in the stomach by Tan Rouâs kick.
These two movements were almost completed simultaneously. In a normal personâs case, it would be impossible to kick an arm and then kick the stomach, but Tan Rou did it.
Because Aunt Wuâs attention was on her arm, she didnât notice her own stomach. And since Tan Rou used her foot, Aunt Wu was indeed kicked away.
Aunt Wu covered her stomach, sweat rolling down her face, âYouâre somewhat skilled.â
Tan Rou didnât speak; she continued to attack, determined to take down Aunt Wu. But the other Wu Family members were around, and seeing Aunt Wu at a disadvantage, they immediately rushed over to gang up on Tan Rou. Since Tan Rou was only one person, she had to step back a bit to escape their encirclement.
âHey, you guys donât have any martial ethics, how can so many of you attack one person?â Seeing them swarm up, Li Li immediately said, âIf youâre skilled, then fight one-on-one!â
Originally, the Wu Family members didnât plan to all join in since they thought Aunt Wu alone was enough to deal with the young girl. They hadnât expected the young girl to be so powerful that even Aunt Wu couldnât get the better of her.
So they didnât need to wait any longer. They hadnât planned on fighting one by one in the first place; they merely thought Aunt Wu would suffice. But since the girl was somewhat formidable, they couldnât be certain of winning unless they took action.
The man next to Father Wu said, âBig brother, little sister seems unable to handle that girl, letâs go up together!â
Mother Wu came out to intervene, âHusband, stop fighting. Little sister has already lost, thereâs no need to continue.â
Father Wu, in a rage, pushed his wife away, âGet out of here! Itâs our business; you stay out of it!â
