Chapter 101: Ignorant Of Others Kindness?

"Understood." Li Xiaofei agreed readily. "If there are no women in my heart, my punches will naturally be divine."

Chen Fei\'s eyes lit up, feeling a kindred spirit. He continued earnestly, "There’s also the temptation of money. Many companies will approach you for endorsements and advertisements. There may even be unscrupulous people trying to lure you into illegal fighting. You need to be very cautious."

"Isn\'t doing advertisements legal?" Li Xiaofei asked curiously.

Chen Fei explained, "Moderately taking on ads to improve your financial situation is fine, but it\'s easy to get addicted because the money comes quickly. If you waste too much time and energy on filming ads, it will hinder your cultivation and affect your performance in competitions. You\'re still young and shouldn\'t dive deeply into those circles of fame and fortune just yet."

Li Xiaofei smiled, "I get it. Thanks, Old Chen."

Chen Fei was still concerned. "Don\'t take it lightly. Some businessmen are very cunning. You could easily fall into a contractual trap and regret it deeply."

Li Xiaofei chuckled as he asked, "Old Chen, have you forgotten my other identity?"

Other identity?

Chen Fei froze for a moment. He had forgotten that Li Xiaofei came from the slum’s underworld. He was the only gang leader from the slum, and a legally registered one at that. Any businessman trying to trick him would likely end up regretting it. Chen Fei had let his concern cloud his judgment.

Li Xiaofei patted the principal\'s shoulder. "I know what you\'re worried about. Don\'t worry, I won\'t leave Red Flag High School. No matter who comes looking for me, I won\'t go because I like it here."

"Then I can rest easy... Uh, I mean, I wasn\'t worried," Chen Fei said, swatting Li Xiaofei\'s hand off his shoulder. "Show some respect, or I\'ll dock your conduct points."

He added, "But you should consider getting a manager. They can handle various business matters and save you a lot of time and effort."

Li Xiaofei replied, "No need, I prefer to keep everything under my control."

Five hundred years ago, there were plenty of cases where athletes were manipulated or outright sold out by their agents. Besides, as long as I have enough resources for cultivation, I\'m not that interested in money.

Everyone went their separate ways after the celebration. Li Xiaofei rode his modified motorcycle, flames shooting out from the exhaust, as he roared away from the campus.

The streets of the base city were relatively quiet as the city lights began to twinkle. The evening breeze brushed past his ears like the gentle caress of a lover\'s hand. Li Xiaofei realized he was gradually starting to integrate into this world.

Suddenly, he heard the roar of cannons from the city walls. Streaks of artillery fire pierced through the darkness, blasting towards the wilderness outside the city. Immediately after, a shrill alarm blared from the city walls, echoing through the night sky.

Li Xiaofei was startled. That was a Level Three Danger Defense State alarm. It clearly indicated a star beast tide was attacking the base city. He knew the term from textbooks. Many base cities had been destroyed by the eruption of star beast tides.

However, according to what he had learned in school, a Level Three Danger Defense State alarm wasn\'t something to be overly worried about. That level of beast tide was unlikely to pose a significant threat to the steel city walls. The only impact was that if the beast tide didn\'t recede by the next morning, the base city would temporarily close, prohibiting any exit. The adventurers who made a living hunting star beasts in the wilderness would have to stay inside the city.

Of course, if they couldn\'t stand the idleness, they could assist in defending the city walls and earn official salaries and allowances.

Li Xiaofei, still on his motorcycle, looked towards the distant city walls. He saw hundreds of firefly-like light dots suddenly appear in the night sky, rising from the city walls and heading towards the wilderness.

Those are flying battle armors!

The dense dots of light were armor masters piloting their battle armors and charging out to engage the star beasts.

Li Xiaofei squinted at the towering, rust-streaked steel city walls that were standing over a hundred meters tall. He could vaguely see the fortresses and giant cannon barrels at the top of the walls. The steel walls and giant cannons were the basic guarantees of the base city\'s existence.

The constantly reinforced hundred-meter steel walls surrounding Liuhe Base City had stood for hundreds of years. The assault of wind and rain had covered the surface of the walls with deep red rust, making them look like silent giants that stood guard over the city and its more than four million inhabitants.

The city walls were illuminated by the firing cannons as they continued to rumble. One could only imagine how fierce the battle outside the walls was. But the city\'s residents were clearly accustomed to such commotion. They weren’t panicking at all.

In the future, I must go out to the wilderness and see for myself.

High school students and above were periodically allowed by their schools to venture outside the city. It allowed them to experience and familiarize themselves with the wilderness. They also faced star beasts directly, which allowed them to gain an intimate understanding of humanity\'s most formidable enemies. This was a strategy of fighting star beasts from a young age.

The city government also organized various adventurer teams and commercial companies to sweep the area around the base city to prevent the rapid reproduction of star beasts and nip the danger of a potential beast tide in the bud.

Vroomm.

The motorcycle’s engine roared as Li Xiaofei arrived at the entrance to the slum. But he found several brand-new luxury cars parked by the roadside. Five or six burly men paced impatiently outside the cars, cigarette butts scattered at their feet. Li Xiaofei did not slow down, riding his motorcycle closer.

“Hey, here he comes...”

“Stop, stop right there.”

When they saw the motorcycle approach, they immediately tossed their cigarettes and blocked the road.

Li Xiaofei frowned. He slowly brought his bike to a stop.

“You’re Li Xiaofei, right?” The buzz-cut leader sized him up, clearly displeased. “What took you so long? We’ve been waiting in the cold wind for ages.”

Li Xiaofei remained silent. He glanced at the luxury cars parked by the roadside, then at the bodyguard-like men.

“Who are you guys?” Li Xiaofei asked.

They didn’t look like rogue adventurers. At first glance, they seemed like bodyguards from a security company. But on closer inspection, their attire didn’t match that of a legitimate organization. They were a ragtag bunch.

“We’re from the Golden Eagle Guild. Our boss wants to see you,” the buzz-cut leader said gruffly.

“Who’s your boss?” Li Xiaofei asked.

“You’ll know when you see him,” the buzz-cut leader replied impatiently. “Follow me.”

Li Xiaofei didn’t move.

“Kid, what’s your problem? Don’t you know what’s good for you?” The buzz-cut leader glanced back, his face revealing a hint of menace.
