"Lieutenant Wang Zheng, Lieutenant Wang Zheng, it's me, Old Xiong!"
"It's time to eat! Why aren't you out yet? If you miss the mealtime, there won't be any left to eat!"
"I know you're listening. Come down, let's go eat together."
...
Wang Zheng's brows were furrowed in worry. Xiong Hui came to visit every day, always with a large group of people.
If you had come alone, I could have saved you some face and quietly finished the competition, letting him back down.
He now leads several platoon leaders under his command to guard the gate every day.
“If I were to take him down, how would you, as a captain and company commander in the Zhili Regiment, ever face the consequences, Ah Xiong?”
While being considerate of others, Wang Zheng secretly glanced down from the window.
Seeing Xiong Hui's large frame standing out conspicuously downstairs, I couldn't help but sigh.
That bastard came to block the way this morning. Is the company commander of the Yunnan Military Region really that idle?
Wang Zheng looked at the sky outside, which was gradually getting dark, and took another bite of the dry food in his hand.
Meanwhile, a short platoon leader standing next to Xiong Hui downstairs, with sharp eyes, caught a glimpse of a furtive head flashing past the window of the reception area.
"Brother Xiong, he's peeking out! I just saw a figure by the window, glanced at it, and then hid back inside."
Upon hearing this, Xiong Hui became even more excited.
"Wang Zheng, stop hiding in there and not saying a word. I know you're listening. Stop being so effeminate. Can't you act like a man and have a fight? Just one fight. If you win, I won't bother you anymore!"
Hearing Xiong Hui's shouts, the platoon leaders around him also joined in the jeering.
"Lieutenant Wang, come down quickly. If you don't compete with him, the company commander has been beating us like crazy these past two days. He really doesn't hold back."
"Lieutenant Wang, give me some revenge! Give our company commander a good beating and teach him a lesson he won't forget."
"Yes, we've come all this way, we can't let the Jingnan Military Region down. If word gets out that you're avoiding battle, that would sound terrible!"
"Hey, all that big and bulky is no use. He's all show and no substance!"
...
Listening to the chattering and shouting downstairs, Wang Zheng kept trying to comfort himself.
"Don't be angry, don't be angry. I'll leave as soon as Lao Chu gets back. I don't want to make him lose face and cause a scene."
But when he heard words like "women," "avoiding war," "useless," and "wax gunhead," his teeth clenched so tightly they rattled!
It's really true that if you hold back for a moment, you'll get angrier the more you think about it, and if you take a step back, you'll feel like you've lost out!
"Bang!"
After a loud crash, two enormous iron hammers flew out of the house and slammed down in front of the group.
"Damn it, this is outrageous! You big bear, huh? If I don't beat you into a bear today, you won't know how wonderful the outside world is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Zheng jumped out of the window and landed steadily in front of everyone.
Before his underlings could even start cheering, and before Xiong Hui could even utter a few harsh words, he was left speechless.
Wang Zheng strode forward, grabbed the sledgehammer from the ground, and leaped high into the air.
His arms were bulging with muscles and veins, and the large hammer in his hand gleamed with a crimson light as he smashed it down hard at Xiong Hui's feet.
"Boom... Boom..."
A continuous series of sounds came, and the earth trembled as if it might collapse at any moment.
As the sledgehammer slammed into the ground, countless cracks immediately appeared in the solid earth.
The impact sent pebbles and dirt flying everywhere.
When the dust settled, the ground where the impact occurred had become a huge crater with a diameter of about ten meters.
Xiong Hui, who was originally full of confidence, stood still and did not move, with most of his body covered by mud.
Now that his entire body had turned a silvery-white metallic color, he had already lowered the arms that had been covering his face.
The immense force that had come from the ground earlier caused the earth to shake violently, making it impossible for him to even stand. Now, he could only stand there dumbfounded in the crater that had been hammered out, staring blankly into space.
At this moment, he understood that Wang Zheng had been saving face for him by not fighting him before.
Having witnessed the absolute difference in strength, his face turned bright red with embarrassment, and he was no longer ashamed to ask Wang Zheng to spar with him.
"snort!"
Wang Zheng snorted coldly, not even glancing at Xiong Hui, who had fallen to the ground, or the other people who were staggering around. He left the hammer lying on the ground and ignored it.
He clapped his hands casually and walked towards the cafeteria.
Now that he was out, he naturally went to eat, since dry rations weren't so easy to eat.
After taking only two steps, Wang Zheng seemed to vaguely sense something, looked up at the clear blue sky, then seemed to have figured something out, shook his head, and walked away on his own.
Above the clouds at this moment was Chu Tianxing, who had just returned, along with several bigwigs from Yunnan.
Although these people looked exhausted, their joy was hard to hide, suggesting that the mission was going very smoothly.
The group that had just flown back heard a loud noise inside the military region, so they all stopped to watch.
At this moment, Fu Wenhui looked at Chu Tianxing, who had a smug expression, and said with a smile:
"Old Chu, something's not right with your student. That silly bear has already reached B-level."
Although he is a defensive type of awakener, I estimate that his strength attribute must be at least 50.
This is our group leader's precious treasure! I never expected it couldn't even last a single glance in front of your students.
Besides, how old is this kid? His strength is truly terrifying. I heard he's a healer too?
