Volume 2 Whose Era Chapter 28: Attacked from Both Sides
"Kong Ling, is this your subordinate?" Liu Wushang looked at Wang Chen with disdain, and instead asked Kong Ling, who was also the deputy captain, directly in the tone of a subordinate. This question was naturally referring to Wang Chen.
" Yes." Kong Ling's voice was very cold under his bamboo hat.
"Kong Ling, is this the person you brought out?" A gloomy cultivator behind him, with his hair half hanging down and covering one eye, asked with a frown.
"Liu Wushang sat down with the captain of the first team, Gui Chou. Kong Ling used to be his subordinate. No wonder he could question Kong Ling in this tone." The cultivators who were familiar with this relationship understood.
Under the bamboo hat, Kong Ling's aura was even more gloomy, and suddenly, two murderous forces like swimming fish appeared beside him. It was obvious that he was extremely angry.
He strode forward and stood in front of Wang Chen. Because of the murderous aura, in the eyes of everyone, he did not look short at all. Instead, he looked like a ferocious beast that chose its prey to devour.
"How dare you cause trouble here?!"
Kong Ling stood in front of Wang Chen, slowly raised his head, his face full of murderous intent, and his voice was extremely cold.
Wang Chen lowered his head and looked. Under the bamboo hat, a pair of blood-red eyes were staring at him.
"There are so many people who witnessed what happened. Don't you want to ask what the real situation was?" Wang Chen did not give in and looked into Kong Ling's eyes.
Captain Li said it's true, we saw it with our own eyes. Qu Tai spoke first, and Kuang Ming actually agreed.
Many cultivators who were not from the White Tiger Army turned around and saw that the two men were actually squad leaders from the Suzaku Army, and they couldn't help but shake their heads secretly.
"Have I ever told you not to cause trouble for me?" Kong Ling's voice became increasingly harsh.
"That's not how you avoid trouble. Others are riding on your head, do you still have to smile?"
Wang Chen looked at the pair of murderous eyes under the bamboo hat and felt no fear, but rather a little amused.
It seems that Kong Ling mainly practices killing skills, but he lacks the indomitable spirit. No wonder even the captain of the White Tiger Army can suppress him.
Kong Ling, who was not good at speaking, suddenly began to breathe rapidly, and murderous aura was flying around him.
"It seems that your subordinate is a troublemaker." Guichou sneered, adding fuel to the fire.
"In front of our colleagues in the three armies, we, the officers and soldiers of the Suzaku Army, accuse Jiang Yu, the captain of the ninth squad under Vice Captain Kong Ling of the Suzaku Army, of deserting the battlefield without caring about the lives of his team members and being afraid of death."
"Second, they took advantage of the battle to recruit low-level cultivators who were closely related to them but had no real power to join their team. They mixed into the team under Young Master Tian's command, damaged our military prestige, and harbored evil intentions."
"Please, vice-captains here, do justice!"
With a loud noise, Qu Tai and his subordinates stood up and saluted respectfully to Liu Wushang and others.
Kuang Ming hesitated for a moment, bowed, and stood up to second the motion.
"Oh? Is this true?"
Liu Wushang asked Qu Tai in a cold tone.
"His team members are right here, the deputy captain will know it at a glance." Qu Tai did not dare to look up and said respectfully.
Discussions arose among the crowd.
"So that's what happened."
"I thought these guys had some powerful backgrounds."
The cultivators who can join Young Master Tian's tutelage, except for those with extremely amazing talents, must have at least reached the third Nirvana stage. Some people had long discovered that Du Zida and the other four had low cultivation levels, and had made many speculations. It was only when they heard this that they suddenly realized.
The crowd automatically made way for the four people to stand out.
At this moment, Du Zida and the other four had already been frightened by Liu Wushang's strange aura. Their cultivation was low and they were unable to resist, and a look of panic appeared on their faces.
Liu Wushang glanced at the four people, took two steps expressionlessly, came to Kong Ling's side, and stared at Wang Chen closely. His pupils seemed to be purple as well.
"You're quite courageous."
Liu Wushang said indifferently, and it was unknown whether he was referring to Wang Chen recruiting four people or Wang Chen daring to look him in the eye.
"According to the law, the team leader has the right to recruit team members on his own. What's wrong with me recruiting my own team members?" Wang Chen said calmly.
Someone in the audience was thinking. The captain did have the power to recruit his own team members. Theoretically, no one could stop him from recruiting ordinary people. However, if the team was too weak and failed to complete the mission, they would be severely punished. Therefore, the captain would recruit people with the highest level of cultivation.
Therefore, in the eyes of most people, Wang Chen's words are just far-fetched arguments .
"Shut up! You disgrace yourself! I will clear the door in front of the three armies today." Kong Ling exerted his true strength, and the cold words jumped out from between his teeth. He was filled with murderous intent, and his hand had already reached back and grasped the hilt of the Blood Nightmare Sword.
Liu Wushang raised his hand to stop Kong Ling.
He didn't look at Kong Ling, but spoke lightly.
"Since this is your team..."
"Are they a team with basic strength, or are they just a mob formed by you who disregarded military discipline? Now I will give you a chance to prove it."
"Li Hu." he called.
"I'm here." Li Hu clasped his fists respectfully.
“Your team will have a team battle with Captain Jiang Yu’s team to show everyone the strength of Captain Jiang Yu’s team. At the same time, it will also serve as a supervisory battle for this departure banquet. If anyone uses the power in their hands to do anything in the future, this will be the end.” Liu Wushang’s words were cold, but his tone was calm.
"Yes!" Li Hu clasped his fists in delight. Liu Wushang's words just now were almost like asking them to slaughter this group of rabble.
He glanced at Wang Chen and suddenly said: "Swords have no eyes. If there are casualties in the competition... "
"No matter the death or injury."
Liu Wushang seemed impatient.
"Yes, sir!" Li Hu was overjoyed, and Chu Kun was even more surprised.
Off the court, Qu Tai and Kuang Ming looked at each other, with a hint of joy in their eyes.
The crowd could no longer control itself and became noisy.
The White Tiger Army is famous for its amazing combat power and daring killing.
The Suzaku Army is famous for its strategy, and this so-called strategy relies almost exclusively on the captain Yue Hexuan. It is not an exaggeration to say that the entire Suzaku Army is Yue Hexuan's personal guard.
If two teams of cultivators like this come into conflict, the outcome can be predicted by using one's knees.
Li Hu is the captain of the third-ranked team of the White Tiger Army. Everyone knows that in every team, there is a huge gap in strength between the top three captains and the captains ranked after them.
What's more, this team leader named Jiang Yu is ranked second to last in the Suzaku Army, and he even lowered his cultivation level and used the Blood Escape Technique not long ago.
This is not a team competition at all; this is clearly the massacre of the generals at the departure banquet that Liu Wushang mentioned, in order to establish his authority with their blood!
Almost all the cultivators present had already anticipated the outcome, and they looked at Wang Chen as if he were a dead person.
No one expected that a farewell banquet would end up like this.
"Let's go." Wang Chen called in a low voice.
Du Zida and the other four were shocked all over, as if waking up from a dream.
"You are slandering me." Xiao Bing shouted with an indignant look on his face.
Wang Chen waved his hand, stopping the four people's angry voices, and walked out. The four people had no choice but to follow him.
