With barely a struggle, Zhao Rong broke free from the ropes binding him. When the surrounding men saw he had actually escaped, they immediately raised their sharp knives and lunged.
Facing seven or eight vicious, knife-wielding thugs, Zhao Rong didn't hold back. A left punch took one down, a right hook decked another, a swift kick sent a third flying, and a leg sweep dazed a fourth. In less than thirty seconds, Zhao Rong had flattened all of them.
When the old man orchestrating the spectacle saw how formidable Zhao Rong was, he was terrified. He backed away, saying, "Young man, if we'd known you were this powerful, we wouldn't have tried to scare you with our little ghost act…"
With that, the old man rushed to the door, opened it, and tried to escape.
Seeing the conniving old man trying to flee, Zhao Rong leaped up and aimed a flying kick at him. But just as his foot was about to connect, he suddenly pulled back.
