Chapter 554: No Worthy Opponent
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
But the one thing that Nie Ting did not want to see the most would be, that one day in the future, the Heavenly Network would have people who lacked strength of character and end up putting their fate in the hands of others when they were on their last legs. He hoped that since everyone who joined the Heavenly Network did so willingly, they would have the courage to pick up their weapons and protect themselves.
Not only did they have to protect themselves, they also needed the courage to protect their home behind them.
One company consisted of 90 to 120 people. Here, it was set at 100 people. This meant that 100 boys and girls of the Daoyuan Cla.s.s were about to engage in actual combat. Those who won had food to eat and those who lost would go hungry.
These groups of boys and girls were arranged by the commanding officers. Each company stood 50 meters away from each other. The atmosphere became heavy. Everyone knew that this was the real deal.
To speak the truth, the boys did not quite dare to attack the girls. Their gentlemanliness made them think they should let the girls have a chance. They did not mind running and eating less.
In reality, a majority of the guys thought the same way. There was no harm letting the girls have a chance. This could even make them more liked by the girls.
Of course, they could not cheat in public. When the first company of boys and girls started their combat, some boys seemed to be attacking fiercely, but in reality they were just acting. But after one second of combat, the overall commander stopped them. He laughed coldly, “I had wanted to execute one of you as a warning to the rest. To think there were people who were actually willing to sacrifice themselves.”
He pointed at two boys and said, “Bring those two away. Don’t leave them here to make a fool of themselves. Bring them to the secured waiting room. They will wait for their punishment.”
Everyone was in awe and shock. Were they for real?
The overall commander glanced at everyone. “Don’t do something that you will regret for the rest of your life. You may be willing to sacrifice yourself to help others, but will others do the same for you?”
The girls were slowly breaking down. Some had even given up all hope. These girls did not even do housework at home, but on their third day of training, they already had to fight each other?
They began to hope that there would be boys who were willing to go easy on them. But when it came to the second group, the boys were made very clear of the rules. They had to fight!
The girls could not help but want to retreat. But at this moment, Lu Xiaoyu pa.s.sed through the troop and came to the front of the girls. She looked at everyone and calmly said, “Follow me”.
These two calm words were like the undercurrents raging in the deep sea. Lu Xiaoyu was now standing in front of everyone with immense arrogance!
It was as if the sun and the moon were once again fighting over control of the skies.
Everyone’s impression of Lu Xiaoyu was not very good. She had beat people up for a whole day. How could one have a good impression of her? Thus, throughout these three days, Lu Xiaoyu had been eating alone and was.h.i.+ng her clothes alone, as if she had been isolated.
But many people did not intentionally isolate her, they just did not dare to approach her.
But when Lu Xiaoyu stood in front of everyone and said the two words “follow me”, the girls behind her suddenly seemed to have found their pillar of support.
During times like this, someone had to stand up and call for action. Lu Xiaoyu was that someone. She only felt that these girls were too terrified, there was nothing to be afraid of, But everyone else thought differently. The girls felt that Lu Xiaoyu was like a hero, going out into battle while facing the sun. When she made her triumphant return, they would drink hard liquor. They would once again set their eyes on the edge of the world in the distance!
Even Lu Shu had probably not thought that Lu Xiaoyu would be able to convince the public by accident…
Even the girls who had been beat up by Lu Xiaoyu felt that Lu Xiaoyu had become much bigger, but Lu Xiaoyu’s figure was undoubtedly thin.
The next moment, Lu Xiaoyu moved her body and rushed into the boys’ team head first like an arrow at lightning speed. In an instant, she threw the boys into confusion. No one could avoid her attacks. One by one, everyone was thrown down to the ground with a punch.
These boys were indeed much stronger than the girls. But Lu Xiaoyu had killed people with Lu Shu before. The fresh blood she had experienced put her on a completely different level from the rest!
Upon seeing this, the girls looked at one another in blank dismay before gritting their teeth and following Lu Xiaoyu’s lead. At first, they were very cautious. But as time pa.s.sed, the boys realized that these girls were ruthless when they attacked. This was their true strength!
They were Pract.i.tioners. There was no difference between the genders! This the was the cruel reality!
The commanding officers were in shock. “Who is that girl?!”
“The one who had given Lu Shu the t.i.tle of national hero, Lu Xiaoyu…” Another commanding officer said in annoyance while biting his gums.
“Lu Shu’s little sister?” The overall commander picked his eyebrows. “The brother is violent and the little sister is so violent too?”
“Hm? Have you seen Lu Shu before?” A command officer asked curiously.
“Yes…” The overall commander somewhat awkwardly nodded his head. “I came into contact with him in the Capital…”
These commanding officers had been transferred from the Heavenly Network. As for where they were before they had been transferred…
Back then, he was a soldier under Hao Zhichao. He had even been chased and beaten up by Lu Shu when he was left alone…
He could not bear to look back on the past… Lu Shu probably did not think that the person he had beaten up in the past would become the current overall commander…
Lu Xiaoyu charged into battle quickly and finished the battle quickly too. She had completely overpowered everyone else with her own abilities. She had shuttled back and forth in the battle, making it hard for her opponents to ward against her.
This was like playing a 5v5 game, where nine of them were rookies and one had overbearing power. This normally led to one person carrying the entire battle.
If these boys had gone through training for military strategies and learned to work together, the situation would have been much better. But now, it was different. They did not work together. Furthermore, their abilities were lacking. The only thing they could do was wait to be beaten up.
When all the boys had collapsed to the ground, Lu Xiaoyu quietly stood in the middle of the battle ground and sighed. “No worthy opponent here. What a far cry from Lu Shu.”
The boys were in so much pain that they could not speak. But they had one question. Who was this Lu Shu?
At this moment, everyone suddenly thought of the recent official announcement from the Heavenly Network. It couldn’t be the Lu Shu who had killed a Cla.s.s B expert at Koh Chang Island, right?
How could they compare against his strength! He was a legend!
“I am not targeting anyone. I am just saying that everyone on the floor is rubbish.” Lu Xiaoyu had gotten into character…
She had not realized that the girls behind her were looking at her in a different light…
Humans had the habit of thinking that internal violence was not true violence. But when Lu Xiaoyu was able to lead them to win a fight, everyone would acknowledge her abilities.
On the other hand, Lu Shu was earning an endless flow of distress points. There was too much for the eyes to take in!
Earlier, the points had been earned from female names, but this time it was a wave of male names!
He hesitated for a long time whether he wanted to ask Lu Xiaoyu about it. Was the situation still under control…
