Li Jile was impressed by him, and seeing him now boosted his confidence even more. With this Black Boxing champion, what waves could Lin Beichen possibly stir up? He's doomed!

However, at that moment, Lan Zihua stood up, glaring at Li Jile and Hou Wei harshly, saying loudly, "Do you really think you can run wild in Pineapple Bay just because you have some influence? You think nobody can handle you?"

Hou Wei looked up at Lan Zihua with a cold smile playing at the corner of his lips: "Oh, it's Miss Lan. My apologies for not recognizing you right away."

He paused for a moment and then continued, "But then again, how could I recognize you standing among a bunch of losers?"

Hou Wei's words infuriated Lan Zihua. She pointed at Hou Wei, demanding loudly, "What did you say?"

Yet, Hou Wei merely curled his lips, ignoring her.

In his opinion, he didn't dare offend the Li Family because of their power, but what was the Lan Family? What was Lan Zihua? How dare she try to order him around?

If he were to show some respect, he might address her as Miss Lan. If not, he'd have her thrown out. What's the harm?

Did they really think the Lan Family was as glorious as it was over a decade ago?

Despite his heart full of mockery, Hou Wei's gaze towards Lan Zihua remained heated.

Lan Zihua's figure and appearance were undoubtedly top-notch. Such a stunning beauty, even he rarely had the chance to meet.

Unfortunately, this delicate rose had already been picked by Li Jile. Otherwise, he might truly risk everything to snatch her away, even if it meant inviting a disaster.

"Gang Lie, didn't you hear me? I told you to get moving!" Seeing the giant man beside him remaining still, Hou Wei hastily turned and smacked the back of Gang Lie's head. With that hit, Gang Lie slowly started moving like a rusty machine.

"You could've just said it, no need to start hitting." Gang Lie rubbed the back of his head, mumbling, then turned and walked towards Lin Beichen. His lantern-like eyes inspected Lin Beichen from head to toe, asking, "Those guys, you took care of them, right?"

He gestured towards the guards still groaning in pain, "I observed carefully after coming in. They each have only one wound, and judging by the injuries, whoever struck was quick and ruthless, with fluid motions, seamlessly executed."

Saying this, he gave Lin Beichen a thumbs-up, "Impressive, truly impressive. Since coming to Pineapple Bay, I haven't encountered anyone as formidable as you in a long time. You deserve my respect, and my way of respecting people is quite simple."

Shifting his tone, Gang Lie's face twisted into a sinister smile: "My way of respecting people is to utterly defeat them, then shatter every bone in their body, and finally shove their head into their..."

"Ha, does a glowworm dare to compete with the sun and moon, or an ant try to shake a tree? Overestimating yourself." Lin Beichen scoffed at the words, laughing, "You're nothing but an insignificant ant, yet you try to flaunt your power before an elephant; you truly don't know your own limits."

Is Gang Lie strong?

To most people, he would certainly be very strong. Not to mention, his nearly one-ton weight alone isn't something an average person can withstand. Without any fancy skills, just crushing with his bulk, few could endure it.

Thus, to many, he is undoubtedly a powerful existence.

However, strength and weakness are always relative, depending on who you're comparing with.

Compared to ordinary combat experts, Gang Lie naturally stands as a strong figure. But before Lin Beichen, he's just a junior.

Who is Lin Beichen?

He's a man with a system, his strength empowered by the system has long reached the limits of human capabilities. Calling him superhuman wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Thus, Lin Beichen's analogy of himself as the elephant and Gang Lie as the ant wasn't overstated; it was fact, a naked fact.

Unfortunately, Lin Beichen's heartfelt words fell on Gang Lie's ears like a sharp thorn, a blatant ridicule.

"You damn guy, dare to compare me to an ant? I'll have you dead!" Gang Lie has always prided himself on his strength, the least he could tolerate is someone belittling it.

He roared in fury, and in his rage, Gang Lie stomped fiercely on the steps.

The marble steps from Brazil cracked with a loud noise from his stomp. Utilizing the recoil, Gang Lie sprang toward Lin Beichen like a wild goose.

While still in mid-air, the fist as large as a stew pot swung out, smashing toward Lin Beichen's head.

"Boom!"

The punch compressed the air, causing it to shriek, and stirred up a whirlwind sweeping across the room.

The onlookers felt their scalps tingling, legs trembling, eyes wide and mouths gaping in shock, watching Gang Lie already airborne. That look was not like gazing at a human, but a monster.

Indeed, a monster.

Because the strength Gang Lie displayed was so overwhelming, it barely seemed human.

In just one stomp, the marble steps from Brazil cracked?

Can this kind of power truly be possessed by humans?

With just one punch, he stirred a whirlwind in the room.

One punch, and a whirlwind was stirred?

This is absurd, supremely absurd.
