Paul Park sneered arrogantly at May Gu, saying, "Hmph, that fat loser really is hopeless! May Gu, how could you possibly fall for him? What a waste!"
"Screw you, Paul Park! So what if I like him? You bastard, let him go now!" May Gu shouted fiercely.
"Let him go? Fine! But he has to admit defeat and apologize to me, and say that Taekwondo from the Republic of Korea is the best martial art in the world! Then, I want you to stop hanging around with that useless fat loser and come have dinner with me instead. Of course, I wouldn't take you to some cheap food stall—at least somewhere like the Golden Thai Hotel. You know what I mean, hehe—" Paul Park cackled.
Danny Dean, still dizzy, heard everything and immediately cursed, "Screw you! Paul Park, you short punk, trying to steal my girl? Go to hell!"
"Big talk for a fat loser!" Paul Park flared up and stomped on Danny Dean's chest, making him grimace in pain, but Danny Dean stubbornly refused to cry out.
At that moment, Paul Park walked over to May Gu, who was sitting on the floor, and tried his best to sound "gentle" as he said, "May Gu, look, what future do you have sticking with that useless fat loser? Why not go out with me instead?" As he spoke, he reached out to help her up. Joanna Gong stepped out from the crowd to help May Gu.
"Get lost! Go date your own mom—don't touch me!" May Gu snapped, angrily slapping Paul Park's hand away and struggling to her feet. Her right calf was swollen from Paul Park's kick, making her wince, but thankfully Joanna Gong stepped out from the crowd to help her up.
On the outskirts of the crowd, Shawn Young saw Danny Dean's predicament and grew anxious. He wanted to rush in and stop Paul Park, but something Paul said made him hesitate. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind—he remembered a Daoist technique from the Codex of Ascension, and with his current skills, he could just manage to pull it off.
To avoid being noticed, Shawn Young slipped out of the crowd and quietly summoned his Celestial Essence. With a thought, he activated the power of the Second Sight, then quickly formed a Vajra Mudra with his right hand and silently chanted a mantra in his mind: "Boundless Heaven and Earth, borrow the law of the universe; wind, fire, thunder, and lightning, gather the mysterious spirit; please let the Vajra Guardian possess me—grant!" A flash of white light shot from his Second Sight to his right hand.
Immediately after, Shawn Young slipped back into the crowd, formed a sword-finger gesture, and pointed at Danny Dean, who was pinned under Paul Park's foot. An invisible force shot into Danny Dean's forehead and merged into his Second Sight.
Danny Dean's body suddenly jolted, his eyes glazed over, and with a strange cry, he sprang up from the ground like a zombie. He wiped the blood from his nose, marched stiffly, and walked toward Paul Park with a blank expression.
At that moment, Paul Park was busy ogling Joanna Gong's charming face and killer curves, his eyes lighting up. He immediately plastered on a smile and said, "Beautiful lady, you're May Gu's good friend, right? How about we go get some Korean food together?"
"Oh, sorry, but the smell of Korean food makes me want to puke! And by the way, I don't date Korean guys! Go eat by yourself!" Joanna Gong retorted bluntly.
"You—" Paul Park got totally shut down, trembling with rage, but with everyone watching, he didn't dare do anything to Joanna Gong. Still, he was fuming inside.
Meanwhile, the blank-faced Danny Dean had marched right up behind Paul Park and tapped him on the shoulder. Paul Park turned to see Danny Dean's glassy stare and immediately redirected his anger, mocking, "Fat loser, did my kick make you stupid? You still have the guts to come at me! Not enough Taekwondo for you? Want me to kick you a few more times and turn you into a real idiot?"
Danny Dean didn't reply; he just stared at Paul Park like he was looking at something amusing. Paul Park couldn't stand that look—it was a challenge to his dignity.
Paul Park immediately stepped back and roared, then launched a lightning-fast barrage of kicks at Danny Dean's chest—five or six in a row.
Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud! Thud!
Paul Park's fierce kicks landed squarely on Danny Dean's hefty chest, the crisp impact making the crowd wince. But Danny Dean just wobbled a bit—nothing happened! He kept advancing, as if Paul Park's kicks hadn't touched him at all. Other than Shawn Young, no one could figure out what was going on; the crowd was amazed. If they hadn't seen it themselves, they'd think Paul Park was just faking it.
Paul Park was even more shocked. He knew how powerful those kicks were—enough to break several boards. But this goofy fat guy was totally fine! Was he hallucinating?
Paul Park shook his head, unable to figure it out, while Danny Dean closed in with a weird look, stomping his right foot like a kid eyeing an ice cream—full of "desire."
Paul Park was startled and stopped overthinking. He immediately unleashed his ultimate move—the "Flying Double Kick!"
Paul Park suddenly leapt into the air, showing off his powerful legs and amazing jump. He was fast and fierce—May Gu, sitting on the ground, couldn't help but scream, "Ah! Watch out!" She knew how dangerous this move was; if Danny Dean got hit, he could seriously get hurt. May Gu was torn with worry.
The crowd was on edge—even Paul Park's own lackeys thought this move was way too ruthless. If Danny Dean took a hit to the head, he'd be dead or crippled! That would cause a huge scene.
Before anyone could react, Paul Park's vicious Flying Double Kick smashed into Danny Dean's forehead with two dull thuds—"Boom! Boom!" May Gu, fighting through the pain, broke free from Joanna Gong's support, while Joanna Gong went pale and screamed.
Then came a jaw-dropping scene—Paul Park's Flying Double Kick hit Danny Dean's head dead-on, but instead of landing, Paul Park found his legs grabbed by Danny Dean's hands! Other than his messy hair from the kicks, Danny Dean looked perfectly fine!!
