A man walked in carrying two forms.
Upon seeing Chen Jin and Lin Xi, she paused for a moment, "Huh, the two newcomers are already here?"
Chen Jin looked at the rather youthful-looking man and asked, "Who are you?"
He smiled and said, "Hello, I am Sun Shang, the current acting commander of Team Three."
Zhu Gan felt a little guilty; he had just finished speaking ill of someone when he arrived.
When Lin Xi and Chen Jin heard the words "acting commander," they exchanged a glance.
No wonder others don't respect him.
Judging by his age, he's probably around the same age as Lin Xi, right?
"What's wrong?" Sun Shang thought he had behaved inappropriately and quickly asked.
"No, it's just that I didn't expect the acting commander to be so young," Chen Jin carefully chose his words.
Sun Shang said, "Well, there's no way around it. When the higher-ups asked us to choose an acting commander, we asked around among the seniors, and they all felt that organizing all sorts of things was too tiring, but before we knew it, the task fell to me."
Lin Xi's eyes widened. "Ah, so that's how it is?"
What nonsense was Zhu Gan just spouting?
Others were unwilling to take on the responsibility, and when the younger generation became acting commanders, they looked down on everything about them.
She and Chen Jin tacitly remained silent.
Zhu Gan, who had just been talking badly about others behind their backs, felt even more guilty.
He turned and quietly left the area.
"Let me introduce you all first. However, the seniors tend to joke around, so please forgive them later." Sun Shang put away the two watches in his hand.
Lin Xi raised an eyebrow.
After saying that, Sun Shang blew the whistle he was wearing on his chest.
The people in the training field gathered lazily, and it took them about five minutes to assemble.
Although Sun Shang looked helpless, he was already used to this.
"As you all know, the internal selection competition concluded successfully yesterday, and our three teams were very fortunate to welcome two new members." Sun Shang looked at Chen Jin and Lin Xi and reassured them, "Don't be too reserved, come closer to me."
Everyone looked at the two unfamiliar new members.
"This is Chen Jin, and the other is Lao San. Please ask the seniors to take good care of the newcomers."
Scattered applause could be heard.
It seems they aren't very interested in the new members.
However, a burly man suddenly stepped out from the crowd.
"Although Brother Xie is not here now, we can't let our team's rules go unbroken."
rule?
This was the first time Chen Jin and Lin Xi had ever heard of such a thing.
Sun Shang's expression was not good.
Now that Brother Xie is not around, when these people go crazy, no one can control them.
"Brother Liu, let's wait until Brother Xie comes back before discussing this matter. Judging by the timeline, it should be in about a week."
Is this what Sun Shang meant by joking?
"Get out of here, who gave you the right to speak?" Brother Liu said with displeasure. "Otherwise, kid, why don't you fight for them!"
Sun Shang's face was extremely pale.
He only entered the military region through the last internal selection competition, while Brother Liu had been training here for almost a year.
Moreover, the memory of being reprimanded the first time he came in still lingered in his mind.
Sun Shang immediately stopped talking.
The others present scoffed.
Brother Liu sneered, "Kid, do you know why everyone is against you? Look at yourself, where is your guts? You are not worthy of succeeding Brother Xie, not worthy of being a leader."
Upon hearing this, Sun Shang looked at the others.
Almost everyone wore a look of disdain.
Although he had known all along that they were not convinced of his worth, Sun Shang still couldn't hide his hurt expression when they looked at him as if he were trash.
Lin Xi, oblivious to the danger, blurted out, "You want to fight? So the three teams that's been losing for weeks in a row weren't weak, but rather they were using all their energy on infighting and bullying the newcomers?"
Everyone's expression changed drastically.
"How did you know?" Thinking of something, Brother Liu glared fiercely at the uneasy man in front of him. "Sun Shang! You actually told them something like this."
"It wasn't me..."
Zhu Gan, standing in the crowd, silently lowered his head, not daring to speak.
The rest of the people all looked angry.
This newbie is so ungrateful! He actually dared to provoke them on the very first day!
Brother Liu looked at Lin Xi, "Third brother, right? Come on, you go first."
Lin Xi put her hands on her hips and said, "Fine, I don't usually make a move easily, but since you've asked so sincerely, I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
Chen Jin chuckled.
Sun Shang's face turned pale.
Brother Liu is practically a tyrant here. His combat power is currently the highest among the three teams. If a newcomer rushes in, won't he just get beaten up?
"Third brother, don't be impulsive!"
Chen Jin grasped his arm and silently shook his head at him.
Sun Shang calmed down. Right, there's a rumor that three people challenged the team commander in advance and advanced directly after winning. Could it be that the third one is one of them?
Thinking of this, he looked into Chen Jin's eyes, trying to confirm it.
The man in front of me was very calm.
This put Sun Shang at ease.
The onlookers sneered, "Sun Shang, even a newbie has more guts than you! You shouldn't be the temporary commander, give it to the newbie! Hahahaha!"
Several people joined in the laughter.
Lin Xi gave the team member who had spoken a cold look.
The man immediately shut up.
I don't know why, but I always felt that this newcomer's eyes were terrifying.
Like Brother Xie, he possesses an inexplicable deterrent power.
Lin Xi looked down on them from the bottom of her heart.
She stopped using those divisive tactics in junior high.
Men of your stature, how filthy!
That's rubbish.
However, no one at the scene paid any attention to this tiny girl.
She looks weak and timid. I reckon if Brother Liu were to unleash his fury, the little girl would be unable to hold on and would beg for mercy on her knees.
Thinking of this, the man who had just been intimidated by Lin Xi's gaze suddenly felt more confident.
Wait a minute, let's see how arrogant she gets!
"Brother Liu, give this brat a good beating and teach her a lesson!"
Brother Liu gave an OK sign. "Don't worry, the newbies are clueless, and this temporary commander is useless, so I'll have to take charge of disciplining them."
"Such a boastful tone. Did you eat chive dumplings today?" Lin Xi pinched her nose.
Chen Jin couldn't help but laugh.
Sun Shang clenched his fist, "These people have really gone too far."
"Bring it on!" Lin Xi waved at him, which Liu Ge saw as a clear provocation.
Anger flared within him, and he suddenly thrust out a palm strike.
Brother Liu: ...
Sun Shang: ...
Everyone: ...
