In the outskirts of Shengjing…
It seemed like an ordinary military camp from the outside.
As Qin Fen leaped out from the general’s car, he felt a sense of wariness that normally didn’t come around when he was standing outside a military camp.
Under the facade of the ordinary military camp, layers of heavy murderous aura seeped out faintly from it.
The major general was very satisfied with Qin Fen’s ability to sense his surroundings. This mission was quite dangerous. A person who had such high alertness in sensing danger would have a greater chance of survival.
At this moment, the major general began to understand why butchers would call his cell phone directly to request for this task.
The young man did have a great talent.
Entering the military camp…
The sky was still in its original form, and the earth was clearly still the same.
However, Qin Fen had a sense of oppression that words could not describe, as if the gravity here was much stronger than the gravity elsewhere. He knew that the atmosphere of the military here was too heavy — it was what caused his hypersensitive defense senses to feel all these other feelings.
The general approached a barrack that had a round-shaped door and pushed it open.
There was a burst of a loud roar that came rushing from the inside of the room. The formless murderous aura seemed as if it was about to come to its form. In a split second, Qin Fen had the fine hairs of his body stand up with his goosebumps getting bigger than the size of a grain of rice.
At that moment, the space seemed to have flashed back to the times of war when machine guns were firing.
The barracks took up a large space. Inside stood dozens of people – half of them were already known by Qin Fen. By the looks of it, these people were transferred over by General Shao from that military camp earlier.
It was apparent that they did not give off the same thick murderous aura as those who were still unseen.
As soon as he entered the room, Qin Fen immediately sensed that he had entered a room filled with gravity. The apparent bare room was in fact a gravity room.
All the seasoned soldiers who were training in the room collectively stopped their practice as the door swung open. All their attention was turned to Qin Fen.
Those who had never seen Qin Fen had already received orders from General Shao. They were given orders to try their best in accompanying a new recruit undergo combat training the following seven days.
Instances like this had happened before. Those who were given such treatment were typically the sons of big well-known families, if not of high-ranked soldiers.
Sons of the Shi family had more advanced skills in combat than the sons of ordinary families, which naturally leads to special treatments of some kind. Seeking combat training directly from the military would be one of their privileges.
All the seasoned soldiers who had never seen Qin Fen before were observing and evaluating him. They were secretly trying to guess which General’s son could he be. His father would for sure be of a pretty high rank. Otherwise, he would not be sent here by General Shao himself.
“Train him well.” General Shao said as he turned towards the exit. “Every single one of you.”
“Who will go first?” asked one of the soldiers who was leaning against a wall, “I’m not interested in playing with kids.”
“I think we should just get these newcomers to play with him.”
“Hey little fella, are you man enough? This isn’t a playground, we don’t have the time to play with you.”
“Little fella, who’s your father? Try telling us his name.”
“Little fella, are you afraid of pain? Big brother has no mercy.”
Qin Fen listened to the provocations of the seasoned soldiers indifferently. He noticed glimpses of anticipation from soldiers who had previously crossed paths with him. Glimpses that also indicated a signal for him to show them what he was capable of.
Qin Fen turned his attention to the rest of the seasoned soldiers. He soon spotted a six-star seasoned soldier martial artist, from which he could sense an aura similar to his.
Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers!
This was a set of internal strengths that was inferior to the Dragon Elephant Prajna Art, but because it was a martial art that can be bought with a large sum of money, the strength you gained from the training was equally amazing, so many people chose to practice Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers. This was also because the Federation only released three stages of training for the Dragon Elephant Prajna.
By successfully completing this set of training, one would have the strength equivalent to nine oxen, equipped with the strength of two tigers. It was similarly perceived as an astonishing power.
Qin Fen didn’t speak. He strode towards the big, half-naked man who was wearing only a pair of shorts, revealing his rock hard muscular body.
Qin Fen’s target was very clear. He immediately locked on his aura on that man. The man also immediately felt Qin Fen’s intention to battle.
The target had a helpless smile on his face. He really did not like the idea of bullying the young ones, but if the kid insisted on fighting, he would have no choice but to teach that kid a lesson.
“Buffalo, you’re so lucky that the little guy chose you.”
“Buffalo, have a little bit of mercy, don’t get yourself thrown into confinement for this.”
“Buffalo, try to avoid his face. The little fella is already lacking in looks. If you were to ruin his face, he would never be able to find himself a girlfriend.”
As the soldiers continued belittling Qin Fen, the crowd started cheering and provoking their battle too.
“Little girl, you have chosen the wrong opponent,” Buffalo said with extreme confidence. He simply got into the standby position for military boxing, with the intention to use this bodybuilding brawling technique to teach this unwanted guest a lesson. It was also a hint for Qin Fen to back off in order to prevent further disruption of their training earlier.
Qin Fen was walking at an extremely fast pace, one major step following another. His last step was taken with full force, a cannon-like force coiled from the bottom of his feet. The Dragon Elephant Prajna was pushed to its peak in just a split second. His body, as if transformed into a blasted cannon, shot a ball straight at Buffalo. Plain and ordinary, yet firm and explosive – the cannonball tore apart the stiffness of the air, and pierced straight at Buffalo’s chest.
Buffalo didn’t think that Qin Fen’s strike would be so fierce. How did such an indifferent young man turn into someone filled with such anger and rage with just one strike?
In a case like this, Buffalo wanted to change his method of attack. Knowing that he would not be able to unleash his strongest battle skills, he had no choice but to lower his center of gravity by opening up his legs while doing a half squat, both fists by his waist. With the six-starred peak of Strength of Nine Oxen And Two Tigers, Buffalo struck the military boxing’s Horse Punch, as he wanted to overwhelm Qin Fen with the level of poise.
“Oh?”
The seasoned soldiers were also surprised. They were shocked by Qin Fen’s speed and sturdiness, but they were also not too surprised. Buffalo was the only one amongst them who practiced the Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers. Most of those who tried to confront him face to face typically ended up suffering in pain. Even if he only used the military boxing method, he was still higher in mastery than anybody else.
Boom!
With the Dragon Elephant Prajna, the cannon smashed onto the Horse Punch of the Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers. Qin Fen’s body shook a little, yet his feet, as firm as the roots of a big tree had remained still.
Buffalo’s arm trembled, and so did his body. His feet kept sliding backward as if he was stepping on the oil.
Qin Fen returned to his stance once again. Again, the cannon-like force pushed his arm as if it was a cannonball, creating a cannonball fist that rapidly shot straight into Buffalo’s eye.
His body balance had been lost. Buffalo, who was unable to return to his stance, could not dodge the fist. He lifted his leg and kicked toward Qin Fen’s fist, hoping that the significant difference in the strength of an arm and a thigh could push Qin Fen away.
The smile of Qin Fen’s face reflected in the eyes of Buffalo. The sneer at that very moment completely crushed Buffalo’s final fantasy.
As soon as Qin Fen’s fist smashed into the sole of his foot, Buffalo’s other foot also left the ground. Buffalo’s whole body was sent flying out, crashing into the walls of the barracks.
From a quiet room came a muffled sound of the collision of heavy objects.
It was very lively. In comparison to the previous noises of continuous provocations, the room was completely silent.
It was apparent that the seasoned soldiers were surprised and astonished. It was unbelievable how a six-star Strength of Nine Oxen and Two Tigers could lose to a five-star young man.
“Buffalo, that’s the power of three oxen!”
“This was not an ordinary force!”
“Buffalo was sent flying away with only two punches?”
However, what they did not know was this: what difference would it make if it was the strength of three oxen? In the face of Qin Fen’s strength of an elephant, the strength of three oxen would not make a difference. Besides, with Qin Fen’s previous days battling in high-gravity rooms, he now had a better understanding of what fierceness is. It would make no sense to underestimate the power of his fist.
Several seasoned soldiers ran towards Buffalo to check on his condition.
Did the fist that clashed only swell a little? Buffalo’s skin was tough and firm, how was it possible for just one punch to cause this? Plus, the opponent was merely a five-star Meteor level martial artist.
Similarly, looking at Buffalo’s feet, there was also some swelling.
The seasoned soldiers then looked at Qin Fen’s fist. To their astonishment, there was not even a slight hint of swelling.
At this moment, the seasoned soldiers finally accepted the fact that Buffalo had been defeated. Not only did he lose in strength, but also in his defense ki.
A six-star lost to a five-star?
If anyone were to hear this, not many would believe it.
However, it actually happened.
The seasoned soldiers who knew Qin Fen well enough all displayed a smile on their faces that resembles the thought, we knew it was going to end up like this.
Qin Fen raised a hand and pointed to another seasoned soldier. This time, he was a six-star martial artist who practiced the Great Monument Breaking Hand.
If someone were to challenge you that way, and you refuse to fight, wouldn’t that mean that you’re afraid?
This time, the seasoned soldier retracted his previous belittlement, and silently got into his fighting stance. The back of his hand was filled with visible veins as he spread his fingers wide apart, which made it seem as if he had hands of metal that were covered with green and black ink.
Great Monument Breaking Hand immediately got into his fighting position.
Qin Fen did not speak either. He paced the Dragon-like steps that he learned from other seasoned soldiers during his previous days, and steadily rushed forward, causing the friction between the wind and his footsteps to make an explosive noise. He hit straight into the opponent’s Great Monument Breaking Hand.
Boom!
The air sounded like a two-bed quilt rolled up and smashed together. Qin Fen’s body swayed again, and the six-star rushing into his body was instantly smashed by the softness.
The seasoned soldier who used the Great Monument Breaking Hand was not as fortunate as Qin Fen. He only managed to regain his balance after taking ten steps backward.
There was still a hint of anger and awkwardness showing on the seasoned soldier’s face despite not having been sent flying, nor did he end up butt down on the ground.
This was even more embarrassing than Buffalo’s defeat; for despite already having the awareness of how strong the opponent was, he still could not manage to remain his stance after the strike.
“What fist is this?” The seasoned soldier blurted out.
Qin Fen exercised his fists and replied, “I called it Iron Fist, but it isn’t completed yet. I am still lacking in many ways.”
“Iron fist?” The seasoned soldier smiled, “It’s worthy of its name.”
