Supremely Talented Tyrant-Chapter 637: Visiting
Xiaoxiao had no way to stop Hao Jian, so she could only go with him.
By the time they arrived at the scene, it was already a complete mess. The entire martial arts school had been smashed up; some male students were lying down, groaning in pain, while some female students knelt on the ground, covering their faces and crying, clearly terrified.
Seeing this situation, Hao Jian was also seething with killing intent because the opponent had gone too far. They had not only injured his disciples but also did not spare his grand-disciples.
"Ancestral Master!" When the female students saw Hao Jian appear, they rushed toward him as if they had found their pillar of strength and surrounded him.
"Ancestral Master, White Eyebrow Tiger came with a group of martial artists, injured the master, the uncles, and some brothers, and even kidnapped the master!"
"Ancestral Master, you must avenge our brothers!"
"Ancestral Master, I'm scared..."
The female students were all pouting, looking like a group of frightened little rabbits, still shivering.
Now they could only rely on Hao Jian to seek justice for them.
"I know everything. Don't worry, I will bring your master back, and I will also avenge your brothers," Hao Jian said sternly. The opponent had come to challenge them; thus, this matter couldn't just be settled peacefully.
Since the opponent had gone to such lengths, it was clear they intended not to give him face. Therefore, Hao Jian no longer needed to hold back.
Suddenly, Hao Jian walked over to Big Baby and others; all six were lying on the ground, bloodied and bruised, clearly having been through a harsh battle.
Xiao Qiang stood guard over them, but also ended up crying out of urgency and guilt, saying, "Hao Jian, I'm sorry, really sorry, I couldn't save them."
Hao Jian shook his head, saying, "It's not your fault, you are, after all, an ordinary woman."
"Master, we are sorry, we have disgraced you. We are not worthy to be your disciples!" Big Baby and the others said guiltily with their heads bowed.
After saying this, their eyes moistened with feelings of unwillingness and resentment. They cried not because they lost to White Eyebrow Tiger and his men, but because they felt they had disgraced Hao Jian.
Hao Jian was so strong, yet as his disciples, they were weak, causing their master dishonor, even causing their eldest brother to be captured.
"The opponent is too strong; this is not your fault," Hao Jian sighed. "It's actually my responsibility. I promised to give you special training, but it was delayed due to various reasons. Otherwise, even if you weren't able to defeat them, you wouldn't have ended up like this."
Hao Jian felt he was truly the one who should be remorseful; he hadn't taken this matter seriously enough.
"Take me to Big Baby," Hao Jian had no time to waste, knowing Big Baby was now in the hands of White Eyebrow Tiger and others, likely suffering torture.
"Hao Jian, why do you look so bad, are you hurt?" At that moment, Xiao Qiang noticed something was off with Hao Jian and quickly asked him.
"I've been injured a bit, but it's nothing," Hao Jian shook his head, indicating he was not seriously harmed.
"It's nothing? You've been shot eight times, you are almost dead, and it's still nothing?" Xiaoxiao was furious, staring in disbelief. This guy was shot yesterday, and today he plans to fight again; Xiaoxiao really didn't know what to say about him.
Hearing this, Xiao Qiang and the others were shocked. Hao Jian had been shot? And eight times?
Their expressions turned odd. Normally, if someone was shot eight times, wouldn't they be dead? Yet, Hao Jian was only slightly pale and could still stand and walk? They all found it unbelievable.
"Master, you've been so severely injured, it really isn't appropriate to confront them now," Big Baby and the others also urgently advised. With Hao Jian so badly injured, facing those Grandmasters now would be like throwing him into the fire.
"Yes, Master, maybe we should wait a few days," though they also wanted to save Big Baby, it seemed like a suicide mission in Hao Jian's current state.
"Since they've given us a deadline, we must meet it. Otherwise, they really might harm Big Baby," Hao Jian shook his head saying.
"Then let's go and tell them to delay the duel by a few days," Big Baby suggested, still somewhat worried about Hao Jian.
"That would make them think we're afraid of fighting, so we deliberately delay. Not to mention whether they would agree, even if they do, during this time, they might still torture Big Baby," Hao Jian mainly worried about this. He had beaten White Eyebrow Tiger badly before and humiliated him in front of White Eyebrow Tiger's disciples; who knows how White Eyebrow Tiger might retaliate against Big Baby.
People still wanted to persuade Hao Jian, but Hao Jian's attitude was resolute, and he said, "Enough, I've made up my mind, let's get moving!"
Xiao Qiang and the others had no choice but to comply with Hao Jian's request and led him to the agreed-upon battleground.
Meanwhile, at White Tiger Martial Arts School, a gathering of martial arts grandmasters was taking place, well over twenty of them, some completely white haired, others burly and muscular, all obviously masters or martial men just by one look.
In front of them hung a man from the lintel, covered in blood, his clothes tattered, with whip marks all over his body—clearly subjected to inhuman treatment. This man was naturally Big Baby.
"Speak! Where exactly is that little bastard?" White Eyebrow Tiger held a leather whip, his eyes emitting a fierce light as he barked. Just before asking, he had already beaten Big Baby into this condition.
Previously humiliated, White Eyebrow Tiger was still seething with rage, and he naturally took it out on Big Baby first.
"Pah!" Big Baby gave White Eyebrow Tiger a straight look, then spit directly into his face, his expression full of contempt, "To think that a loser under my master's hand dares to bark in front of me?"
"Are you seeking death?" Furious, White Eyebrow Tiger wiped the spit off his face and then furiously pounded Big Baby's chest with more than a dozen punches.
"Hey, hey, don't hit him so hard; if you kill him, the kid might not come," said an old man with white hair, his eyes, however, twinkling with amusement. He was not really trying to stop White Eyebrow Tiger.
"Even if we don't kill him, I think that kid wouldn't dare to come. We might as well just kill him!" a giant man with a bullish physique retorted coldly. He was burly like a grizzly bear, his torso bare and covered with strange tattoos, while a whip hung from the back of his head.

His attitude was scornful. They already knew Hao Jian was avoiding a fight; how could he possibly deliver himself to death's door?
"Don't say that. What if the kid really comes seeking death? If we kill his disciple, we would miss the chance to slaughter him too," the old man with white hair said smilingly, yet his smile was sly as if hiding a blade, giving him an air of a smiling tiger.
"Humph, thinking he can open a martial arts school in Hua City, it's not that simple. Looking down on us elders, I'll show him the power of Qi-Mu Deye Iron Fist!"
This white-haired old man and Qi-Mu Deye were representatives of all the grandmasters in Hua City, and they were the two most formidable among them.
Hao Jian's audacity in dismissing them completely had enraged them.
"I heard that kid has some tricks up his sleeve; even White Eyebrow Tiger had suffered a great defeat at his hands. If he does come, it'd be wise to be careful," said a skinny man dressed in a kung fu robe, his demeanor sinister as if he were a bald eagle.
"A kid in his twenties, no matter how skilled, how powerful could he be? It's just that White Eyebrow Tiger, that failure, was defeated by him," Qi-Mu Deye said coldly, showing no respect for White Eyebrow Tiger.
Since White Eyebrow Tiger was one of them and his humiliation also disgraced the grandmasters, Qi-Mu Deye, although speaking in defense of White Eyebrow Tiger, did not view him favorably.
White Eyebrow Tiger, upon hearing Qi-Mu Deye say this, felt an outburst of rage but dared not show his discontent.
"Exactly, can one man stand against us all? Do you think he is Mr. Situ?" the white-haired man said disdainfully, but then looked at a young man beside him, "Right, Mr. Situ?"
The man named Mr. Situ, whose full name was Situ Haonan, was the youngest among this group. Normally, he would have attracted the least attention.
But, because of another identity he held, that alone was enough to make everyone present respect and even fear him.
He was one of the members of Divine Tiger!
In Huaxia, Dragon Tooth and Divine Tiger represented the authority of martial arts. All martial arts practitioners revered these two entities like deities, striving to join Divine Tiger or Dragon Tooth as a lifelong goal.
So even though Situ Haonan was just a junior member of Divine Tiger, he was able to command respect and curry favor from so many martial artists.
Hearing the white-haired elder's words, Situ Haonan just smiled lightly and shook his head, taking a high stance, "Please don't say that, elder. I'm only in my twenties, my experience is shallow, how could I possibly stand up to elders like you?"
His words were humble, but his demeanor looked down upon the white-haired elder, making his statement sound odd, with a hint of boasting intertwined.
"Ah, Mr. Situ is being modest. To be a member of Divine Tiger at your age, that itself puts us far behind. I'm afraid even if all of us joined hands, we might not stand a chance against you. With you, Divine Tiger is truly stronger, becoming a genuine soaring Divine Tiger. Mr. Situ, your future is limitless; perhaps one day you might even take up a leadership position," the white-haired elder continued to flatter.
Hearing the white-haired elder unreservedly bootlicking, Qi-Mu Deye gritted his teeth in irritation. This old man, how fast could he act?
Qi-Mu Deye also wanted to ingratiate himself with Situ Haonan, so seeing the white-haired elder take the lead, he was quite unwilling. Regretting that he should have been a bit shameless, as that would have been his chance to catch Situ Haonan's attention first.
