The Starfield Farming Sovereign (Elizabeth Schofield) novel Chapter 160

The group of followers burst into cruel laughter. Some of them even took out their devices to start recording.

Ethan suddenly lifted his head. His eyes were bloodshot.

He glared at Tyler and gritted his teeth. “Don’t go too far!”

“Too far?” Tyler laughed like he had just heard the funniest joke. He yanked Ethan’s hair even harder. “I’ll show you what ‘too far‘ really means! Beat him! Keep going until he crawls under my legs!”

The

group

rushed forward. Fists and kicks rained down on Ethan.

He tried to fight back, but he was alone. Against five or six people, he had no chance. Soon, he was knocked to the ground. He curled up, barely managing to protect his head and chest.

But Tyler still wasn’t satisfied.

He crouched down next to Ethan and spoke in a cold, low voice–just loud enough for Ethan to hear. “I heard your mom works for a cleaning company, right? And she’s not in great health. Every day she climbs up and down to clean windows and air ducts.” He paused, then smiled darkly. “What if she slips and falls from a high place one day? Or gets hit by a malfunctioning cleaning robot? That would hurt, wouldn’t it? Maybe she wouldn’t

get back up at all.”

Those words were like a poisoned knife. They stabbed straight into the one place Ethan could never let anyone touch.

His eyes changed instantly.

It was the look of a dying beast–wild, desperate, and broken.

No one knew where he found the strength. He let out a deep, inhuman growl, then suddenly shoved the people on top of him away and jumped to his feet.

At that moment, Ethan didn’t care about the punches landing on him. All he could see was Tyler.

He moved like a mad animal. His strength and speed were far beyond normal, like he had nothing left to lose.

In just a few blows, the unprepared followers were knocked down.

All of Ethan’s anger and fear focused on one person–Tyler.

In the chaos, no one saw clearly what happened.

They only knew that Ethan threw a heavy punch straight at Tyler’s temple.

Tyler dropped instantly. He collapsed onto the wet floor like a lifeless body–and never got back up.

Later, he was rushed to the hospital. After a full examination by specialists, the final result came out–his mental core had collapsed. He would never wake up again.

Even though Evan was still young, he clenched his fists after hearing the story. He couldn’t help shouting, “Tyler was awful! He deserved it! Ethan is a hero!”

Jared and Grace frowned deeply. Their anger from before had turned into something heavier, something complicated.

They could imagine Ethan’s pain. The years of bullying, and then having his most important person–his mother–threatened like that. Anyone would break.

“What is the school going to do with Ethan?” Jared asked in a low voice. He already had a bad feeling.

Aiden looked helpless, with a hint of anger. “The school reported it. The final decision was that Ethan used extreme violence and caused very serious harm. They labeled it a major offense. The punishment is exile to the Garbage Planet.”

“Exile?” Grace cried out. “But he’s still a minor! And this was clearly self–defense after being bullied for so long! Even if he went too far, it should only count as excessive self–defense. How can they just exile him like that? If a kid goes to a place like that, his life is over!”

Jared’s face darkened as he sighed. “Tyler’s family must have used their power. They’re very influential on Odyssey Planet. It’s not surprising they pushed for the harshest punishment.”

Aiden lowered his head, feeling awful. “Ethan is actually very talented. He’s even better than Tyler at mecha control. But because his family is poor, he’s been bullied since the day he entered school. He reported it before, but the school only gave Tyler a few warnings. It never helped. This time…”

He couldn’t finish his sentence.

At school, everyone was calling Ethan cruel and violent. They said exile was already too light for him.

But no one stopped to think–if he didn’t fight back, what choice did he have?

Just keep getting bullied? Keep getting threatened? Or break down and give up on life?
