Chapter 16: The Man Destined to Be King of the Kids
"Ding-ling-ling…"
As soon as the class bell rang, trouble came knocking.
"You little brat—you actually made us waste an entire day!"
The one leading the provocation was a child of the Hyuga clan. Behind him stood several children from smaller families.
Facing the provocation, Li Jie xuan remained firmly seated at his desk. Only after neatly packing away his notes did he raise an eyebrow. "And you are?"
Li Jie xuan didn't rush to respond. Although his current strength was decent, there were still a few people he needed to be wary of.
Orochimaru, Jiraiya—those direct descendants of major clans were geniuses who graduated at six and went straight to the battlefield. If Li Jie xuan were to fight them now, the outcome would be uncertain. But if it was some nameless cannon fodder, then…
"My name is Hyuga Yizu. You lowly civilian have completely angered me…" Hyuga Yizu looked down at Li Jie xuan arrogantly. "It's one thing that you used despicable means to sneak in here, but you even dare provoke me. You really don't know when to stop."
"Let's fight."
"Huh? What?"
Hyuga Yizu froze for a moment.
Not hearing a familiar name, Li Jie xuan decisively stood up and pulled out the space-time kunai from his sleeve. "Weren't you looking for a fight?"
This guy was actually going to challenge him proactively? Hyuga Yizu was stunned, but one of his lackeys jumped out and mocked loudly, "You're asking for death! Brother Yizu is a genius who's already refined chakra!"
"Haha! That kind of thing is nothing to me…"
Basked in his underling's flattery, Hyuga Yizu laughed smugly with his hands on his hips.
"So are we fighting or not? I'm in a hurry to go home."
Li Jie xuan grabbed his backpack and made as if to leave. "I don't have time to play with you little kids…"
When Li Jie xuan got home, he still had to endure Might Guy's hellish extreme-point training. Besides, these kids were only three or four years old and already forming cliques and picking fights. If this were Earth, their butts would've been beaten raw.
That, however, completely enraged Hyuga Yizu.
"Little kids? Who exactly are you calling little, you runt?!"
Hyuga Yizu and the others were four or five years old, with the youngest still over three. Li Jie xuan, barely over one year old, was a full head shorter than them.
"Very good—you've successfully angered me! I was only planning to teach you a light lesson, but now…"
As he spoke, Hyuga Yizu pulled two long bandages from his pocket and wrapped them around his hands. "I hope you'll still be this confident when you're kneeling and begging for mercy!"
At that moment, the system suddenly issued a new task.
Daily Task: Defeat the Opponent.
Task Content: Faced with provocation from little brats, as a man aspiring to become the king of the kids, you must deal with your opponent swiftly and decisively.
Task Reward: Beginner Treasure Chest.
Seeing this, Li Jie xuan shook his head helplessly and followed Hyuga Yizu's group out of the academy. If he didn't beat this guy into submission, the trouble afterward would only multiply…
"Be careful. That guy may be trash, but he can already use eight strikes of the Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms."
As Tsunade passed by Li Jie xuan, she suddenly whispered a reminder. "Don't make me carry you back…"
Hearing that, Li Jie xuan smiled and nodded. Tsunade really was just as described in his past life—tough on the outside, gentle on the inside. Truly the perfect wife candidate…
Ahem. What am I thinking—Tsunade is still only a little kid.
But still… the man destined to be king of the kids? Wasn't Tsunade known as the king of the kids too…?
