“Qi-Jin? I didn’t expect that I would be able to play with such an interesting toy right after returning to the 23rd Division.” The soldier who crossed fists with Luo Lang licked his own lips in excitement as his eyes gleamed with bloodthirst. Having been provoked, he felt as if he had returned to the bloody battlefields and the killing intent in his heart became thicker and thicker.
Luo Lang’s level was exposed in the blow he exchanged with his opponent. The soldiers watching who all had malevolent auras couldn’t help but wear solemn expressions on their faces. They hadn’t expected for there to actually be experts of Qi-Jin among these cadets that had just gotten into the division. Normally, cadets who became experts of Qi-Jin during their years in the academy would them become people whom the division would focus on nurturing. Knowing this, they knew they couldn’t go overboard unless they wanted to anger the division’s main commander-in-chief’s department.
Right when they wanted to stop all this, one of them saw that their comrade had blood in his eyes. They immediately yelled, “Captain, it’s not looking good. Lu Wei may be going berserk.”
They were killing machines of the division. Once they moved out, they would spare a single soul. The result of killing too many people made them somewhat all have psychological issues. For example, every time they came back from a mission, their moods would be extremely violent and everything would seem annoying to them. If they didn’t find something to let loose, they wouldn’t be able to recover.
The veterans of the division all knew about this type of situation. Even if they happened to be unlucky and was met with them looking for a fight, they would just endure it. Otherwise, if they really angered them, they would be looking to get harmed. This was also why the soldier standing on guard didn’t say anything when they came looking for trouble. He wouldn’t be able to reason with them and even the division commander-in-chief’s department would turn a blind eye to what they did. After all, this was all caused by the post-traumatic stress from the mission. As long as there weren’t any severe outcomes, the higher-ups would just allow it. Now because of this, these fellows were considered a dominant group within the division and normal veterans would not even dare to provoke them.
It was just that these soldiers met up with a group of new recruits. Never having felt frustration, they would naturally not endure this kind of humiliation and insult. The result of them lashing out was that they would be beaten up ruthlessly. If it was that kind of result, then everything would just pass, but after being stopped over and over again, it would provoke these soldiers who had mood swings. Once they went berserk, they would not listen to anyone and could even commit murder.
This was also why that soldier that spoke earlier felt that the situation was becoming worse. If Lu Wei really went berserk, the handsome young man that stopped him might disappear from this world.
Right when that soldier wanted to move in to stop the fight, their captain put out his hand to stop him. “Liang Qiao, wait.”
“But!” Concern showed on Liang Qiao’s face. He was afraid that Lu Wei would lose control and do something that he would regret.
“It’s alright. That new recruit won’t be so easily defeated,” said his captain breezily.
At that moment, the cadets from all the military academies were all very angry. When they saw Luo Lang, they were overjoyed. They knew that they weren’t on the same level as these soldiers. No matter how angry they were on the inside, they still had to endure it.
However, they saw that only Luo Lang appeared by himself and immediately began to worry. They were hoping that others from the First Men’s Military Academy would quickly come out, as Luo Lang alone would definitely not be able to go against these bastards.
Those of the Third Men’s Military Academy were also very anxious. One of them quietly asked their leader, “Elder Brother Wu, he might have some trouble if it’s just himself. Are we going to make a move afterward?”
The expression of the leader, Elder Brother Wu, changed immediately. In the end, he bit his lip and said, “Watch and see how the situation plays out. If the guys from the First Men’s Military Academy don’t get here on time, we’ll fight for a bit.”
As cadets from the same military academy and as fellow new recruits, they all needed to stand on the same side and not let these veterans humiliate them.
“Got it, Elder Brother Wu.” Those from the Third Men’s Military Academy prepared themselves in silence. If the others from the First Men’s Military Academy didn’t make it on time, they were going to move in and assist Luo Lang.
Luo Lang quickly felt the change in his opponent’s aura. His face became stern and he carefully put his guard up.
The two of them looked at each other for a few seconds. Suddenly, they moved simultaneously and disappeared.
“Bang, bang, bang!” The two of them clashed many times in mid-air. Their fight was extremely fast. Those who had poor eyesight couldn’t see their movements clearly. These people could only listen to the sound of their punches and kicks colliding.
“Eat my fist!” Lu Wei shouted, punching towards Luo Lang with great force.
Luo Lang wasn’t scared and met the attack with his own fist.
“Boom!” The clash of their Qi-Jin coated fists suddenly exploded outwards. This time, because both of them used all their strength and didn’t hold back, the large force instantly sent them both flying.
Lu Wei smashed onto the ground and uncontrollably slid a few meters backward. He stood right up after doing a handspring. At that moment, his appearance wasn’t as handsome as before. Other than the dust on his face, there was also a small trail of blood coming out of his mouth. The clash just now had dealt him internal damage.
On the other hand, Luo Lang had turned his body and held himself up with his two hands right before he was about to hit the ground. Using the force from his two hands, he flipped, landed firmly on the ground and stood up straight. Although Luo Lang felt his blood boiling, he wasn’t actually wounded internally. In this fight, he was stronger than his opponent.
Seeing that he had been injured by a new recruit that he looked down upon, the common sense in Lu Wei’s mind disappeared. His eyes showed the colors of a berserker. He angrily shouted, “Bastard, die.”
After saying that, the muscles in his right arm suddenly expanded and his sleeve was instantly ripped. Before anyone could say anything, he had already vanished. In the next second, he appeared in front of Luo Lang. He swung his large right arm ruthlessly towards Luo Lang.
“Stop!” Shocked, Liang Qiao immediately leaped forward. He hadn’t expected that Lu Wei would actually become berserk to the point that he would use their special forces battle team’s ultimate technique. If this attack didn’t kill the opponent, it would at least render them half dead.
However, another figure suddenly appeared in mid-air and stopped him from interfering.
“Bastard, move.” Liang Qiao grew angry and punched with great force at the figure.
“Bang!” Two fists clashed. Liang Qiao couldn’t control himself and took a few steps backward before managing to stand firm on the ground. He looked at his opponent with a stunned expression. The punch that he had angrily thrown out had 80% of his Qi-Jin behind it. He didn’t expect the opponent to take all of it and even send him staggering backward.
While Liang Qiao was stopped, Luo Lang saw that his opponent’s attack was coming his way. He still kept a straight face and took in a deep breath as his right hand trembled a little. His sure-kill technique, Level 4 One-Inch Punch, silently took all of his body’s Qi-Jin and met with the ruthless attack from his opponent.
“Bang!” The loud sound almost broke the eardrums of those who were present.
After the shockwave from the clashing between the two Qi-Jin hits erupted, the large force made everyone who was watching the battle uncontrollably take a few steps back. The only people who could stand firmly within the Qi-Jin were those tough soldiers, including Liang Qiao who was stopped earlier.
After the Qi-Jin dissipated, the person in front of Liang Qiao finally spoke. “See, the two of them are just getting to the fun part. If you make a move, they will be angry.”
The person was wearing the 23rd Division’s uniform for new recruits. His smile was very happy-go-lucky, as though him making a move was actually because he was afraid that Liang Qiao would try to do some good that would actually lead to a bad outcome.
Liang Qiao wasn’t fooled by the other’s smile and narrowed his eyes. “Qi-Jin.”
Although Liang Qiao looked like he was calm, he was actually quite surprised. There being one recruit with Qi-Jin was already very rare. He didn’t expect another person with Qi-Jin would appear. It seemed that there were many monstrous individuals among this year’s new recruits; otherwise, how could one or two of them all have Qi-Jin?
Following the clash between Luo Lang and Lu Wei’s fists, the two of them did not seem to have been hurt. Right when Liang Qiao wanted Lu Wei to stop, he saw the latter suddenly fly backward in mid-air. Lu Wei spat out some blood uncontrollably onto the ground. Right after, his body smashed onto the ground and because of the force he hit the ground with, he stopped after rolling uncontrollably for a few seconds. This time, Lu Wei didn’t stand up.
Luo Lang slowly lowered his fist and stood up straight, a trickle of blood dripping from the corner of his mouth. Although he had heavily wounded his opponent, the opponent’s ultimate technique was also very impressive. It had actually directly injured all of his organs. Fortunately, his situation was much better than his opponent’s. At least he could still stand and could still fight. In comparison, the opponent had dropped to the ground and no longer had any ability to fight.
Luo Lang used his hand to wipe off the blood on the corner of his mouth, then slowly walked towards Lu Wei and bent down. He looked at him teeming with anger and asked, “Which leg did you use to hurt my little sister earlier?”
Lu Wei didn’t answer. He merely looked at Luo Lang with his bloodshot red eyes. He was like a ferocious beast, wanting to rip off the flesh from his opponent. However, being heavily wounded, he couldn’t move an inch.
“Was it your right leg?” Luo Lang asked coldly. “I’ll break it. Luo Lang’s little sister is no easy target to bully.”
After saying that, Luo Lang raised his right leg and ruthlessly kicked towards Lu Wei’s right calf.
“Impudent!” Lu Wei’s captain’s eyes flashed red for one second. He instantly disappeared and reappeared beside Luo Lang, following which he kicked to meet with Luo Lang’s kick.
Luo Lang’s expression instantly changed. This man’s aura exceeded the level Luo Lang could endure. It was not possible for him to take it on directly. However, Luo Lang didn’t give up on his revenge and continued to kick towards Lu Wei’s calf without any care about the repercussions it might bring.
“Bam!” Suddenly, another muscular leg appeared and blocked the captain’s kick.
“Crack!” Luo Lang ruthlessly kicked Lu Wei’s calf and instantly broke his leg.
The one who intercepted the captain’s attack was a short-haired and cool-looking individual, who wasn’t smiling in the least and actually looked menacing at that moment.
The individual slowly lowered his leg and calmly said, “Your opponent is me.”
“Qi Long, you almost arrived late.” Luo Lang felt a bit dissatisfied seeing that someone had come to him. Their boss had told the three of them to come together, but Qi Long had actually arrived later than him and Xie Yi despite being the strongest.
“Better to come on time than early,” Qi Long replied calmly.
In reality, he had already arrived a while ago. It was just that his boss had ordered him to let Luo Lang have a good fight to let out his anger, as Luo Lang would definitely go wild if he didn’t vent, what with him having a sister complex.
“Who are you people?” The captain saw through Qi Long’s capabilities and his eyes couldn’t help but narrow. The other was at the peak stage of Qi-Jin, only lower by himself by a small fraction. He was so young yet his physical skills had actually reached this level. It seemed that he was the strongest in this group of new recruits.
“I’m a former cadet of the First Men’s Military Academy, now a new recruit of the 23rd Division, Qi Long,” Qi Long answered calmly.
“And you?” The captain looked towards the new recruit who had intercepted Liang Qiao.
“I’m a former cadet of the First Men’s Military Academy, now a new recruit of the 23rd Division, Xie Yi,” Xie Yi answered with a smile on his face.
The captain looked towards Luo Lang. This seemingly soft and weak youngster was actually as merciless as them veterans. Who had developed and nurtured these recruits into such monsters?
“I’m a former cadet of the First Men’s Military Academy, now a new recruit of the 23rd Division, Luo Lang.” Luo Lang glared at the captain angrily while introducing himself. If possible, he would have wanted this captain to pay a price as well. After all, he had let his subordinate act freely and made his little sister and comrades get hurt.
“I am the captain of the Sting Special Forces, Lian Shaojing,” Lian Shaojing introduced himself proudly. “You injured my team member, so you must pay a similar price.” Killing intent flashed through his eyes for a moment. In reality, he had been provoked by the continuous fighting of his members. Being somewhat berserk, he wanted to get some blood of these youngsters on his own hands, which would fill him with joy.
“Holy sh*t, he’s the captain of the Sting Special Forces? We’re in trouble now.” After hearing Lian Shaojing’s self-introduction, all of the new recruits all knew that they were in trouble.
Every division had its own team of special forces. There were many official battle teams in the special forces’ team, but the ones who had their names known to the public were a total of eight battle teams. The rest was very mysterious that even those in the 23rd Division weren’t certain how many official battle team their own division’s special forces’ team had. Furthermore, the special forces had 12 substitute battle teams. Once these substitute battle teams met the demands of the special forces, they would level up and become an official battle team.
Compared to the mysteriousness of official battle teams, the information on the 12 substitute battle teams was more well-known. There were names of 8 battle teams. The veterans of the 23rd Division all knew that all this information wasn’t considered a secret for people who were interested in the 23rd Division. However, even if they were substitute special forces battle teams, they were still the division’s extremely merciless killing machines. They were people that normal battle teams looked up to.
The Sting Special Forces was one of the twelve substitute battle teams and they were also ranked third best battle team. In the past two years, they had gone on many dangerous missions and killed countless enemies. Many people predicted that some time afterward, they would become one of the official battle teams.
Even these military academy cadets had heard of Sting’s legacy. Offending them meant that the cadets would be unable to move freely in the 23rd Division. Everyone was concerned for those of the First Men’s Military Academy.
Luo Lang and Xie Yi exchanged a look. Right when they wanted to get closer to Qi Long and face Lian Shaojing together, they were intercepted by Lian Shaojing’s team members.
Right at that moment, a young man clumsily ran into the atrium. He saw Luo Lang and Xie Yi become surrounded by people from the Sting Special Forces and immediately yelled out angrily. “Shameless. You guys want to gang up and attack?”
He looked around and quickly picked up a broken chair leg from the ground. He swung it a few times with great force and yelled, “I’ll join too.”
“Chang Xinyuan, fighting isn’t your thing.” As a cool voice rang from behind him, Lin Zhong-qing and Han Jijyun slowly walked in from the front door.
After they walked in, 200 or so people also flooded into the atrium. They were the recruits from the First Men’s Military Academy. Not long after, the 200 or so people had surrounded those from the Sting Special Forces.
Seeing this, the captain sneered at them. All these recruits who had only reached the level of Refinement would not be able to go against his battle team, no matter how many of them there were. But suddenly, his expression changed and he looked at the door with great surprise.
A cool-looking young man had appeared at the door and his cold gaze focused on Lian Shaojing, making him feel as though he had been frozen in place.
