Li Yao's challenge was considered wind past by them. The four of them had absolutely no interest in Li Yao, let alone to fight with him. Their goal was Tao Yuhan, the little girl who had humiliated their teacher.
"Hey, how old are you?" du Huan asked curiously, he was Cheng Lei's most powerful disciple here.
"16 years!" answer Tao Yuhan honestly.
Li Yao was indeed irritated at having been ignored. However, the answer spoken by Tao Yuhan managed to make Li Yao surprised. Because Li Yao thought the age of Tao Yuhan was 13 years, not 2 times his own age.
The appearance of a swordsman is often deceiving. There was a swordsman who was hundreds of years old, but his appearance still looked like someone in his 20s.
Tao Yuhan was an anomaly.
Usually Li Yao had never been fooled by someone's outer appearance. He could tell the cultivation level and age of a person just by looking directly at the person's appearance.
Yet Tao Yuhan was different, Li Yao could not even see his cultivation. So it was no wonder Li Yao was also unable to see the true age of Tao Yuhan.
"So so," murmured Du Huan irritatedly.
Du Huan did not accept that there was a disciple from a low-level sect who was stronger than him, moreover the age of that disciple was several years younger than his age.
"My name is Du Huan from the White Sea Monastery, I am against you for battle training!" du Huan exclaimed then picked up the fighting horses using his bare hands.
"Don't ignore me! Your opponent is me," Li Yao said, he felt irritated at being ignored.
The gazes of Du Huan and his three companions landed lazily towards Li Yao. Suddenly Li Yao charged forward and then attacked Du Huan. The bald youth briefly chuckled when he saw Li Yao about to attack him.
Once when Du Huan wanted to fend off then attack Li Yao using his punch, Li Yao's attack in an instant changed from punch to kick.
Du Huan's punch shot forward, targeting Li Yao's face. In a very short time, Li Yao stopped his intention to hit then dodged Du Huan's attack with great ease.
Li Yao's right leg bent and then his knee slammed into Du Huan's stomach. Li Yao's kick landed on Du Huan's fragile stomach without any defense. Du Huan collapsed and lost his consciousness.
The incident took place in a very short time, no more than two seconds.
The other three bald youths were shocked, they could not believe the strongest person among them was now falling unconscious because of a little child like Li Yao. The cultivation levels of the four of them were at the stage of forming core Qi, one level above Li Yao's cultivation.
Even so Du Huan was much stronger than the other three youths. The reason was quite simple, Du Huan was quite talented in the martial arts of the White Sea Monastery. In addition, his cultivation almost reached the stage of building the foundation.
That was why the three of them did not accept Du Huan losing to Li Yao.
"Work si***n! How dare you secretly attack our friend."
"Do you have no honor?"
"Don't be mad at us if we beat you to death! A brash kid like you should indeed be taught a lesson!"
The cliche threat spoken by the three young men had already been heard so often by Li Yao, so Li Yao simply responded very casually. The three bald youths instead grew even more annoyed when they saw Li Yao's reaction that remained calm.
Li Yao shrugged his shoulders then spoke.

Cheng Lei rented a room for himself and his student at the Rongrong inn. After leaving the city office, he immediately walked to the inn.
Rongrong Inn was the best inn in the southern region of Blue Cloud City, which was the reason Ceng Lei decided to stay at the inn.
According to rumors, the monsters Cheng Lei wanted to hunt were often seen in the southern region of the city. The southern Blue Cloud City was indeed very close to the Eastern Forest, the most vast forest in the Eastern Empire.
That monster must be hiding in the Eastern Forest. Cheng Lei was very confident in his thoughts. Actually Cheng Lei already knew what monster he was going to hunt, so he did not need to meet a person named Deng Xue.
Deng Xue, hearing that name made Cheng Lei furious. He didn't like the name because it reminded him of someone.
Arriving in front of the Rongrong Inn, a scum-clothed little boy suddenly crashed into Cheng Lei. Cheng Lei angrily looked at the child and kicked him out.
The boy apologized while bowing his head, then left from before Cheng Lei. Suddenly Cheng Lei caught the boy's hand, realizing that something was missing.
The 10-year-old boy panicked.
The panic Cheng Lei could see very clearly, Cheng Lei checked his clothes and realized that his pouch was missing.
Today Cheng Lei was very upset that he had been humiliated by a child. He wanted to go to the inn and rest, to calm himself. This time he met a child who tried to steal his goods.
The anger of Cheng Lei who had been held back since then finally he poured into the poor bastard.
"Basic Disgusting Thief!" cheng Lei said angrily, he quickly lifted the child's body which was very light.
Cheng Lei's hands were getting tighter and tighter grasping the little boy's hands. The boy thrashed, trying to let go of Cheng Lei's grasp but failing.
His strength could not compare to the strength of the Swordsman of the White Sea Monastery.
Like a puppet, the child's body could only wiggle around. Once when Cheng Lei's grasp tightened, the child immediately screamed in pain.
Many people around the place immediately noticed Cheng Lei's actions to the child. Sensing the gazes from the people around him, Cheng Lei issued a statement that would explain the reason for his actions.
"Little thief, quickly hand over my stuff you stole!" cheng Lei said quite loudly, he increasingly hardened his hand grip.
The little boy screamed even louder, he could feel the bones of his right hand begin to crack. Having no choice, the boy immediately gave his stolen goods back.
The bag fell from the child's left hand, as Cheng Lei did not stop strengthening his hand. Cheng Lei was still angry and overpowered by bad emotions, he wanted to punish the boy even harder.
A burly hand suddenly landed on Cheng Lei's shoulder. Cheng Lei turned his head then looked at the figure of the big man who was carrying groceries. That figure was none other than Deng Xue.
Cheng Lei's eyes in an instant instantly faded, his hand grip also weakened then the little boy fell to the ground. Cheng Lei had not expected to meet his former partner whom he hated so much.
"Deng Xue, I didn't expect to see you here. How are you after the Sect Chief crippled your cultivation?" ejek Cheng Lei circus.
