Max continued to stare up at the mountain of muscle standing in front of him. The student was the kind of person one would have a hard time believing wasn't already a full-grown adult.
It was exactly the type of person Max knew he wasn't ready to face yet. Guys like this, huge, experienced delinquents, were always the toughest to fight. Even with Max's skills and experience, larger opponents were harder to take down. And considering the student had mentioned Dipter's name, Max could tell this guy wasn't just muscle, he could fight too.
"Damn, is that Jay Woods?" one of the nearby students whispered.
"Crap, Max is done for. I knew he overdid it recently. Looks like they're really going after him now."
Thanks to the students' whispers, Max now had a name to go with the face, Jay Woods.
"Do I have a choice in this?" Max asked. "If I try to leave, are you going to stop me?"
Jay looked down at him, his expression stone cold, unreadable.
