Chapter 79: Chapter 77 Kung Fu, Killing Skills!

Wu Li was somewhat surprised, "Who are you?"

Hong Wenbo replied, "It seems you’ve forgotten. Last time you came here, I was the one who brought you in."

Wu Li thought for a moment and seemed to remember something.

Hong Wenbo asked, "So, what happened?"

Wu Li began to recount everything that happened that evening. At this time, besides him, Chen Dong, Zhao Minzhi, and others were also giving their statements.

Only Zhang Jia’er and Wang Xuecheng, both dead drunk and unconscious, lay on the side, untouched and undisturbed, which made Chen Dong green with envy. If he had known, he would’ve drunk more tonight, and then none of this would be happening in his dreams...

Soon, Hong Wenbo learned the whole story of tonight’s events from Wu Li.

"Officer, this counts as self-defense, right?" Wu Li asked nervously.

Hong Wenbo laughed, "Seeing how calm you are, I thought you weren’t afraid at all."

Wu Li laughed as well. This was his first time experiencing something like this. Although he was fairly certain his actions were legal, he couldn’t help feeling apprehensive.

Hong Wenbo didn’t keep him in suspense, and directly said, "I can’t make a definitive judgment now, especially since I haven’t obtained the surveillance footage from the scene. But don’t worry, the place you mentioned should have several cameras. As long as the truth matches what you’ve said, there should be no problem. Of course, it’s not up to me, the judge will make the final decision."

Wu Li nodded, leaned back in his seat, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Hong Wenbo took out a cigarette and offered one to Wu Li, "Do you smoke?"

Wu Li shook his head, and Hong Wenbo lit one for himself. He slowly said, "In the past, whether self-defense was excessive was determined by the extent of injuries on both sides. Under those standards, your actions tonight would definitely be considered excessive."

"However, in recent years there have been several self-defense cases, and the standards for justifiable self-defense have been revised: it’s no longer based on the outcome, but on whether the degree of violence was equivalent. That means, if someone attacks you with a knife, you are allowed to fight back with a knife, and you have the right to unlimited retaliation! Given what happened tonight, the assailants were armed with knives, while you were unarmed and outnumbered; any way you fought back is allowable," Hong Wenbo reassured him.

Wu Li nodded; he had seen a classic case like this discussed online before.

Because there had been such cases before, Wu Li did not hesitate to defend himself tonight.

"However, the relevant procedures still need to be followed: we have to wait for the results from the hospital, bring in Ma Qing and his group for their statements, and finally wait for the court’s decision. In short, you definitely won’t be getting out of here anytime soon; just stay put," Hong Wenbo explained.

Wu Li sighed; he knew he wouldn’t be able to leave for a while.

"Officer, have you notified my school yet?"

"With such a big deal, we definitely have to notify them," Hong Wenbo said.

"Then, can I give my family a call?" Wu Li asked.

With an incident like this, it was foreseeable that it would hit the news, and this time it might make big news. Wu Li thought it unlikely he could keep it from his parents. To prevent them from worrying, he decided to take the initiative and call them.

"Sure, you want to call now?"

"Tomorrow," Wu Li replied.

On December 30, Chuhua Daily published a piece of news on various websites, with the headline "Kung Fu, Killing Skills!"

"At 11:43 p.m. on December 29, nine college students left Odin Bar and were surrounded on the street by a group of more than twenty men wielding knives. After a brief standoff, the man leading the attackers suddenly slashed at one of the students, who fought back and, in the blink of an eye, knocked down four people, scaring off the rest.

The four who were knocked down all suffered serious injuries and were sent to the hospital: one’s left leg was broken, another’s right eye was ruptured, one had severe damage to the groin, and one suffered a severe concussion with intracranial hemorrhaging and is currently in a coma.

It is reported that the student who fought back is named Wu Li, who was previously..."

On Mo Yin, Chuhua Daily also has its own account and directly posted surveillance footage from the evening online.

The caption for this video was: "Xingyi Fist heir strikes in the street, one per second! Serious injuries to four people, Kung Fu, Killing Skills!"

In less than an hour after being uploaded to Mo Yin, the video got over 5 million likes, with many news accounts starting to share it.

That same afternoon, the likes for this Chuhua Daily news exceeded over ten million, and the number one topic on Mo Yin became: "Kung Fu, Killing Skills!"

As more and more netizens recognized Wu Li in the video and shared stories about him in the comments section, more and more people started following Wu Li’s story. When "Kung Fu, Killing Skills?" became the top trending search, Wu Li’s incident completely blew up, and Wu Li himself became a sensation.

By 10 p.m., Wu Li’s Mo Yin account had reached over 26 million followers, gaining over 10 million fans in just a day, a faster rate than many top celebrities on Mo Yin.

Online discussions varied, but the main focus was on the debate whether Kung Fu was a form of killing skill.

Previously, enthusiasts of Traditional Martial Arts often said during debates online that Kung Fu was a killing skill, distinct from competitive fighting.

However, such claims were often scoffed at, considered boasting, with the challenge to prove it with facts. Some said it could be seen in the army, others cited cases they had witnessed or heard from elders, but these examples all shared one regret—they were not witnessed by the world.

Now, regarding the claim that Kung Fu is a killing skill, there was finally a highly visible case for the world to see.

"Damn, that’s hardcore. I believe there is real Kung Fu in this world now!"

"Sure enough, it’s not that Traditional Martial Arts isn’t effective; it’s that the practitioners aren’t good enough. The reputation lost by those fake Masters is finally being picked up again!"

"Amazing, surrounded by more than twenty knives, barehanded, and he still dared to fight back!"

"Right, I’ve practiced Boxing for a few years myself, but if it were me, I’d surely run if I could, and if not, I guess I’d only be able to beg for mercy."

"Gouge the eyes! Strike the groin! Stomp the knee! This is how Traditional Martial Arts originally looked!"
