The entire room was dark. There was one lonely light hanging from the ceiling, and the broken lightbulb was covered with dust.
Ferocious Tiger narrowed his eyes and did a quick scan of the place.
The space wasn’t split clearly between the living area, bedroom, and kitchen. It was just a rectangular room that barely fit a bed and a cupboard. Everything else had to be piled on the side, otherwise, there was nowhere to put them.
There wasn’t even a bathroom.
These sorts of living conditions were considered very poor, even in the slums.
There was a person leaning sideways against the window across from Ferocious Tiger. That was the leader of the assassins he’d hired.
The other men weren’t around, and his target wasn’t around either.
These guys were trying to be smart, but unfortunately, they didn’t understand that this attempt to be smart when faced with absolute power would ultimately increase their own pain.
Ferocious Tiger took large strides over and grabbed the young man’s neck. He lifted him with his hand and said, “You little piece of trash! Hand that boy over, otherwise, I guarantee that all of you are going to die horribly.”
The young man glared fiercely at him but didn’t say anything.
Ferocious Tiger’s eyes widened, and he was about to bash the young man up.
Suddenly, he had a bad feeling.
Ferocious Tiger suddenly turned himself around. Every part of him wiggled, and his entire body became taller and stronger.
In an instant, he had turned into a bulky giant that stood at three meters tall.
“Haaa!”
Ferocious Tiger let out a war cry, and he slammed his hands upward hard.
There was a muffled sound, and Ferocious Tiger flew up, staggered several steps backward, and crashed hard on the wall next to the window.
There was a crack in the wall from that crash.
Ferocious Tiger looked down at his own two hands.
“Bow and arrow? What a rarity.” Ferocious Tiger looked at the arrow he was holding on to tightly and wondered out loud.
He then looked up with a start to see a figure standing at the door in the dark, and there was an old fashioned longbow in his hand.
“You… you’re that poor student?!”
Ferocious Tiger realized who it was and he felt a tremendous shock in his heart.
It had taken all his strength to block that arrow earlier.
This sort of archery technique was certainly extraordinary, and it definitely wasn’t the standard a high school student should have.
He told himself that he had to fight him at close range so that he could get a chance to kill the boy off!
Ferocious Tiger then stomped on his feet and flew forward with a loud boom.
Gu Qingshan also made his move.
He shot another arrow.
This arrow was aimed for his chest, and Ferocious Tiger couldn’t avoid it in time since he was charging forward at high speed.
He had no choice but to stretch his hands out again and swing them down fiercely through the air.
PAK!
He managed to hit the arrow aside, but he had also moved back two steps from the immense impact of the arrow.
But Ferocious Tiger smiled as if it didn’t bother him at all.
“This arrow is pretty powerful, all right, but since you have such a tiny and skinny body, I suppose you can’t draw the bow back anymore, right?”
Ferocious Tiger rotated his neck a bit and jeered at Gu Qingshan, “How many more of such attacks can you make?”
Gu Qingshan paused for a while before replying, “Oh, plenty more.”
He drew the bow as he spoke.
Rapid Shot!
It was as if there were streams of gray lightning between them, shooting out from Gu Qingshan and hurtling toward Ferocious Tiger.
Ferocious Tiger leaned against the wall and used all his strength to defend himself.
