Wang Ji's tone was not enthusiastic.

Although the expressions of the others changed upon hearing this, some were invigorated and felt a surge of warmth, while others felt ashamed.

Liu Chuang felt both ashamed and grateful, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

rogue……

Comrades...

Liu Chuang didn't know what Sun Wukong was up to with his hostile attitude, but being spoken to like that by his idol made him feel ashamed again, just like when he had been reprimanded by Wang Ji.

The previous incident was minor, but this time, it left him utterly ashamed.

The words "comrade-in-arms" warmed Wang Ji's heart like a surge of warmth, burning hot.

But Wang Ji's expression remained calm; to him, he was simply stating a fact.

"And you, you're just a..."

"Monkey!" Something jumped on his shoulder excitedly. "It could be Shen Shen! Let's go with Shen Shen!"

Wang Ji breathed on his finger and flicked it hard on the head.

The little creature tumbled in mid-air, dizzy, before struggling to climb onto Wang Ji's shoulder, letting out a whimper and collapsing.

Zizai's nonsensical interruptions made Sun Wukong frown slightly in confusion. Although he couldn't understand what the little guy was saying, he had a feeling that it wasn't anything good.

“A person who can’t distinguish friend from foe.” Wang Ji continued, “I can’t just sit by and watch someone who can’t distinguish friend from foe grab my comrade by the neck and take him away.”

He chuckled and said, "Great Sage, you may have some misunderstandings about your identity."

While speaking, he actually sorted out the thoughts in everyone's minds.

This Great Sage probably felt that, as he himself said, he had come to this world a long time ago, and his story is probably quite long and eventful.

Moreover, the story of the Monkey King is widely known, and he felt that he was an elder to these children, and that he could gain their trust with just a few words.

Naturally.

And these children were indeed naturally close to Sun Wukong; after a fierce battle, the atmosphere instantly became harmonious.

So much so that Liu Chuang was so bewildered that he didn't dare to fight back when his neck was grabbed, as if he greatly admired Sun Wukong.

Others might hesitate to provoke Sun Wukong, the powerful Victorious Fighting Buddha, again over such a "trivial matter." Moreover, Sun Wukong could very well soon become one of their own.

Du Qiangwei thought everything should be fine, and Zhao Xin thought everything would definitely be fine.

However, in Wang Ji's eyes, this was not a matter of whether something was happening or not; it was an absolutely unacceptable issue.

It's a very simple question.

Those in the same class are called classmates, those on the same team are called teammates, and those fighting together are called comrades-in-arms.

Lena said a month ago: We don’t know who will be the first to be shot, or who will be the first to kill the enemy, but from now on, we are comrades-in-arms.

Even if there's a 98% chance that Sun Wukong is one of our own, he's still an outsider right now.

Even if Liu Chuang was a scoundrel before, he's one of us now.

In fact, Wang Ji felt a pang of emotion...

If it had been Du Qiangwei, Zhao Xin, or even Qi Lin or Wang Ji who were being choked and about to be taken away, instead of Liu Chuang, everyone might have instantly united.

If it were Qi Lin, Wang Ji would have already made his move.

He believed that if it were him, Qilin would have done the same.

Everyone has a scale in their heart...

Under the pitch-black night, the leaves rustled in the trees, and in the woods, pairs of young and bright eyes could be seen.

They stared intently at the figure standing before the golden-armored man, listening to his concise words, earnest tone, and resolute voice.

These were just a few simple words, yet they stirred something within these young soldiers, as if something both cold and warm was rushing from their backs to their brains.

The rush sent shivers down their spines, cleared their minds, raised goosebumps all over their bodies, and sent a tingling, warm sensation through them...

That figure was 1.85 meters tall and very young.

"Heh! Hehehehehehe! Good! Good! Good, good, good!"

Sun Wukong stared intently at Wang Ji for a long time, his gaze unfriendly. But after a while, he suddenly laughed loudly and said "good" several times.

"I, Sun Wukong, have protected this land for so many years, and this is the first time I've been humiliated by a junior." He sighed helplessly, pacing back and forth.

"However, I, Old Sun, have learned my lesson... I was rash."

He nodded to himself, then stopped and looked at Wang Ji seriously, saying, "Now I'm telling you all clearly, especially you, kid."

I am Sun Wukong, the Victorious Fighting Buddha. To put it bluntly, I am the guardian deity of this land of China.

This time, I've come specifically to test you. I need to see what you kids are really like. Actually, your superiors know about this too.

Upon hearing this, the soldiers of the Super Soldier Company exclaimed in surprise, looking as if they had just realized it, that's how it is, and that's exactly how it is.

Wang Ji, however, showed no emotion whatsoever, which surprised Sun Wukong, who had been watching him the whole time.

On that shoulder, a little chick lay listlessly, seemingly oblivious to everything.

Sun Wukong didn't think much of it and continued, "If I think you guys are good, I will join the Super Soldier Corps and fight alongside you to fight against the future disaster on the horizon."

And I think you guys are pretty good, so I'll be joining the Super Soldier Squad soon. You don't need to worry about how to get me back; I'll be going back with you guys in a bit.

"Once you meet your superiors, you'll understand everything."

"Wow! Really? Really?" Rui Mengmeng exclaimed as soon as Sun Wukong finished speaking.

The others also exclaimed excitedly.
