C172 Eldest Brother Is Here Black Belt Stage Nine

Zhang Meng stood on the fringes of the fray, his expression frozen in disbelief. He had intended for his underlings to rough up Lin Dong as payback, but Lin Dong's prowess had taken him by surprise. His two henchmen were effortlessly dispatched before Zhang Meng could even muster a cheer.

Cradling his chin, he exclaimed in astonishment, "This can't be happening!"

Lin Dong glanced at him and offered a slight smile. "Nothing's impossible. Just because you can't achieve something doesn't mean others can't. Consider this a warning. If you keep stirring up trouble, don't blame me for not being courteous."

As he spoke, a chilling glint emerged from the depths of his eyes, as piercing as the ice crystals in the depths of winter, striking fear into the heart.

Zhang Meng shuddered at the sight of that steely glare, finding himself at a loss for words despite his urge to argue.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi, who had been floored, picked themselves up, clutching their bellies and wincing in pain. Lin Dong's kicks had been powerful, and even with restrained force, the impact was far from gentle.

Now, they regarded Lin Dong with a mix of awe and fear.

Despite their trepidation, they were ready to stand their ground. The recent clash had proven Lin Dong to be far from the pushover they had assumed, and they were clearly outmatched.

"Brother Meng! What's our next move?" one asked.

"Should we just leave? We can always get back at him later," the other suggested.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Qi were both eager to offer their advice. Lin Dong's words had left them feeling humiliated, but they were also reluctant to stay, knowing his strength. It seemed wiser to retreat than to persist and face further embarrassment and pain.

Zhang Meng was seething with frustration, yet he was powerless to act. The throbbing pain from his broken jawbone surged anew, causing him to gasp in agony. The physical pain only deepened the emotional turmoil churning within him.

At that moment, he was desperate to grab Lin Dong and give him a beating, yet he lacked the guts to challenge him again.

Given his current state, continuing to confront Lin Dong would surely lead to defeat.

Moreover, he had caught a glimpse of Lin Dong's icy stare. If he dared to challenge Lin Dong once more...

Lin Dong would not hold back in the slightest!

When that time came, it would be more than just a broken jaw.

"Eldest Brother has arrived!"

A cry of surprise rose from the edge of the crowd.

Lin Dong glanced up to see a man of average height approaching.

He appeared to be in his thirties, clad in a martial arts uniform, moving with a solid and stable gait.

The man sported a buzz cut, his gaze was resolute, and his temples prominently defined.

His features were ordinary, but the sharp contours of his face gave him the air of a seasoned expert.

"Eldest Brother is a ninth-degree black belt; shattering a large stone single-handedly is no challenge for him. It's been a while since we've seen him."

"He must have heard about the duel happening here, that's what drew him out."

"Lin Dong took down Zhang Meng, Little Five, and Little Seven. I doubt Eldest Brother will let that slide!"

"I bet. With Eldest Brother's high rank, Lin Dong is in for a tough time."

"Let's just sit back and enjoy the show!"

The crowd buzzed with speculation.

Lin Dong heard their murmurs.

Unperturbed, he remained stoic, his expression unchanged as he faced forward.

A ninth-degree black belt?

Lin Dong was unafraid. If it came down to it, they would clash head-on, but bowing down was out of the question!
