Chapter 160: Chapter 159: Astronomical Annual Salary



"I underestimated you just now, I didn't expect you to have broken through to the Late Mingjin Stage! This time, I will not underestimate you. I've defeated Yan Dashan, who was in the Late Mingjin Stage, and I can certainly defeat you!" Walking up to Lin Yun, Wang Jie said in a deep voice.

Whoosh—

In the midst of speaking, he made his move again.

The arm he had used earlier had been broken by Lin Yun. Now, he was using his other arm.

In fact, Lin Yun's martial arts realm was beyond his. Now, he was seriously injured and the gap between him and Lin Yun had widened further.

The chances of him winning were almost none.

However, he was reluctant to admit defeat so easily.

Moreover, his severe injury to Yan Dashan last time had given him some confidence.

He believed that by using his self-taught boxing techniques and seriously fighting against Lin Yun, he might have a chance to win.

However, he had underestimated the strength of the Late Mingjin Stage and Lin Yun.

From the punch just now, and the one at this moment, Lin Yun could see that Wang Jie's strength was indeed beyond that of an average Mid Mingjin Stage martial artist. However, his strength was somewhat inferior to some of his Mid Mingjin Stage bodyguards. These bodyguards, who had undergone training from Gold Sword Security Company, were far stronger than ordinary martial artists in the same realm.

Gold Sword Security Company was not a regular security company. It was backed by a martial arts family, so it was normal for their bodyguards to possess such strength.

His Mid Mingjin Stage bodyguards were still not comparable to an average Late Mingjin Stage martial artist.

The gap between Wang Jie and an average Late Mingjin Stage martial artist was even more significant.

And he, was not just in the Late Mingjin Stage, he was extraordinary.

"Bang——"

This time, Lin Yun did not throw a punch; instead, he kicked Wang Jie, sending him flying.

The gap in their strengths was too great. None of Wang Jie's boxing techniques worked.

Lin Yun was very fast. After kicking, he immediately put his foot down, looking quite natural, as if he hadn't kicked at all.

"So, the head coach underestimated him just now…"

"I told you, how could the head coach not be able to block even a single move…"

Upon hearing Wang Jie's words, many of the students started talking amongst themselves.

"Um——"

But before they could finish speaking, they abruptly stopped, as if someone was choking them. They failed to utter another word.

What did they see?

With a single move yet again, their head coach was sent flying!

Moreover, this time, he was kicked into the air, flying even further and higher!

"Bang——"

This time, Wang Jie flew a good seven to eight meters, his body slamming into another wall. A dull thud echoed in the room before Wang Jie's body fell to the ground.

No one doubted that if it wasn't for the wall, Wang Jie would have been kicked even further.

The room fell into silence!

"Heavens!"

"He kicked him seven or eight meters away. Is he human?"

"Is this real?"

It took a while for many of the students to process what had happened, and they expressed their shock.

Earlier, when Lin Yun had punched Wang Jie away for three or four meters, they weren't as shocked. But this time, they were truly taken aback.

They weren't stupid.

Twice in a row, Wang Jie couldn't withstand even a single move.

How could they not know that Wang Jie stood no chance against him?

Not only that, but there was also a considerable gap between their abilities.

"This——"

The owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall was also shocked.

This young man's strength was so formidable?

Wang Jie couldn't even withstand one of his moves?

At this moment, Lin Yun walked slowly towards Wang Jie.

"You know very well how our master treated you. I don't want to speak about it anymore. If you had just joined Yinghao Martial Arts Hall, or even if you had openly hurt our master, I wouldn't say anything. But you should not have conspired against our master at the Inter-school Martial Arts Competition in Immortal Origin County.

Furthermore, when our master had no money to buy medicine, you sent people to take away Mountain Martial Arts Hall's students, leaving Master without money to treat his illness!" Lin Yun spoke each word with weight and iciness.

"Today, I am going to clean up the mess for our master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yun kicked towards Wang Jie's dantian.

"Stop!"

At that moment, the owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall finally reacted and hurriedly shouted.

"No!"

This voice, it was Xing'er Lee who spoke it, her small face full of urgency as she quickly ran towards Lin Yun.

Lin Yun ceased his steps and turned to look at Xing'er Lee.

If Xing'er Lee hadn't yelled out to him, he indeed wouldn't have stopped.

"Senior Brother Lin Yun, have you forgotten what our master said to you when we came here? This is a society ruled by law, you can't kill him, getting locked up in jail for scum like him, it's not worth it..." Xing'er Lee, after rushing to Lin Yun's side, rushed to explain in a panicked tone.

Seeing this scene, the owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall broke out in a cold sweat.

He'd witnessed Lin Yun's strength firsthand, and he had no doubts that a kick from Lin Yun could absolutely kill Wang Jie.

Wang Jie was the head coach of their Yinghao Martial Arts Hall. If Wang Jie were killed within their hall, their reputation would surely be devastated. On top of that, a murder occurring within their hall would spiral into a huge problem and might even lead to their hall being shut down. Even if he wanted to withdraw from it, it wouldn't be easy.

He had invested a huge sum of money to build up this martial arts hall in the past two years. If that were the case, it would be a significant loss.

Luckily, the other party stopped in time.

"Mr. Lin, the young lady is right. We're in a lawful society now, you can't be impulsive. Besides, let me formally invite you right now to become our head coach at Yinghao Martial Arts Hall. An annual salary of one million, how about it?" The owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall stepped forward and quickly spoke. When he mentioned the salary, he hesitated slightly.

He originally planned to offer just three hundred thousand, at most five hundred thousand, but then, biting the bullet, he moved up to one million.

On one hand, he saw that Lin Yun was quite angry. That one million in salary was intended as compensation to Lin Yun, to appease his anger. On the other hand, Lin Yun's previous words had shown great disdain for their hall, and he feared offering less wouldn't sway Lin Yun.

An annual salary of a million could be considered a sky-high price in a small county like Immortal Origin County.

The salary Wang Jie originally received was only two hundred and fifty thousand a year.

This demonstrated the astonishing strength of Lin Yun.

Wang Jie, who once boasted of being the top master in Immortal Origin County, was no match for Lin Yun. If he could recruit such a powerful figure, then after a bit of promotion, which martial arts hall or gym in Immortal Origin County could compete with Yinghao Martial Arts Hall?

With Lin Yun's formidable capabilities, the price of instructing students could also be raised.

Originally, for Wang Jie to instruct a student, the price was ten thousand per person. For detailed guidance within a month, and intermittent instruction within three months, given Lin Yun's capability, increasing the price to thirty thousand per person would be feasible.

One million, in one year Lin Yun just had to recruit more than thirty students, then that money would be earned.

Now, the development of small cities is getting faster and there are more and more wealthy individuals. If there's a powerful force and good promotion behind it, recruitment will not be a problem.

More importantly, by Lin Yun joining the Yinghao Martial Arts Hall, it would further increase their perceived value.

Thinking of that, the owner of the Yinghao Martial Arts Hall's eyes sparkled brighter.

"One million!"

"Sss——"

After hearing the sky-high salary offered by the owner of the Yinghao Martial Arts Hall, many of the students present drew a sharp breath.

In a small county like Immortal Origin County, one million was an astonishing amount. For this young man named Lin Yun, simply by joining the Yinghao Martial Arts Hall, he could earn one million in a year. How could they not be stunned?

"Who said that there's no use in learning martial arts in today's society?"

"I must learn martial arts diligently. Once I reach Lin Yun's level, even if it's just to show off, I could earn a lot of money as a martial arts coach!"

"If Lin Yun joins Yinghao Martial Arts Hall, I'll definitely upgrade my membership. I must learn martial arts with him!"

Afterward, many of the students, very excited, uttered their words.

"Senior Brother Lin Yun..." Looking at the owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall offering Lin Yun a sky-high salary, Xing'er Lee once again became anxious. She anxiously looked at Lin Yun but didn't know what to say.

An annual salary of one million was indeed a large sum that even she was taken aback by. At that moment, she wasn't sure whether Lin Yun would be tempted. Also, Lin Yun had already grievously injured Wang Jie, essentially avenging her master. If she were to discourage Lin Yun now, would he perceive it as blocking his future prospects?

"When did I say I would kill him?" However, Lin Yun didn't even glance at the owner of Yinghao Martial Arts Hall. Instead, he just looked at Xing'er Lee, smiled lightly, and said.

"Thump——"

The next moment, Lin Yun made an exact kick at a point in Wang Jie's ​​dantian.

The dantian, a vital point for gathering strength.

This point was something Lin Yun had learned from the Cosmic Trading System.

If the force was strong enough, it could essentially cripple the opponent's abilities so they would never be able to use a decent amount of strength again.

"You——"

After being knocked back twice, the last time being a harsh slap in the face, Wang Jie didn't know how to face this situation. On top of that, he was indeed seriously injured, so he thought to play dead by keeping his eyes shut. However, Lin Yun's incoming kick made it impossible for him to continue pretending. His eyes flew open as he looked towards Lin Yun's incoming kick.

He attempted to stop Lin Yun, but it was too late. This kick had already hit his dantian, causing him to only spit out a single word before he was unable to speak.

Pain!

Absolute agony!

That was Wang Jie's sensation at that moment!

"What... what did you do to me? Why can't I muster up any strength?" After a while, Wang Jie slightly regained consciousness, but he quickly realized something was wrong. Startled, he glared at Lin Yun and asked in disbelief.

This sensation of losing his strength wasn't due to the injury, but an indescribable feeling.

"You should be grateful that we're now in a lawful society. Otherwise, you'd lose more than just your power, but your life as well. When you were plotting against your master, who painstakingly trained you, when you intended to kill him, you should've already prepared yourself for the consequences," Lin Yun stated calmly.

"My... my power is gone? You caused me to lose my power?" Wang Jie incredulously asked.

He had practiced martial arts from a young age and put in so many years of hard work to reach his current strength and realm. Was it all gone now?

He found it difficult to accept this outcome.

Upon hearing Lin Yun's words, the complexions of many people changed.

This Lin Yun, could actually cause someone to completely dissipate their power?

Wasn't this too terrifying?
