As this young man appeared, the entire atrium turned as cold as ice and those whose physical skills were at low levels began to s.h.i.+ver.
The cool young man slowly walked closer towards the center of the atrium. With every step he took, Lian Shaojing could feel the pressure in his heart increase by one-fold. He was surprised and terrified because he discovered that he couldn’t see through the young man’s power level.
“Who is he? Why does he make me feel afraid?” On the side of Lian Shaojing’s forehead, droplets of sweats were trickling down to his face. It didn’t drip to the collar of his uniform, but he didn’t wipe it because his intuition told him that if he moved, danger would be upon him.
Ling Lan walked past Luo Chao and Han Xuya with her eyes focused on them. Her originally cold and heartless gaze instantly became somewhat warm as she said, “Luo Chao, Xuya, we were late.”
These words made Han Xuya become uncontrollably red. As for Luo Chao, these words made the feeling of grievance well up from inside her and tears instantly poured out from her eyes.
When Luo Chao saw her older brother Luo Lang, she could still hold in her tears. However, after hearing Ling Lan’s apology, Luo Chao’s strong-willed heart collapsed.
“Boss, they bullied us.” She decisively relayed the situation to her boss in the midst of tears.
As long as their boss was here, no one would dare to bully them. Even if some dared to bully them, they would be ruthlessly taught a lesson by their boss. From when they were very young, Luo Chao had believed that Ling Lan could do anything.
A warm hand patted on her head softly.
Ling Lan naturally knew the truth of the situation. Actually, right as they were approaching planet Southcrest, Little Four had already connected with the mainframe of the planet’s s.p.a.ceport and immediately found Luo Chao, Han Xuya and the others. This was also why Qi Long, Luo Lang and Xie Yi were able to arrive at the most dangerous moment.
Ling Lan turned around and looked at Lian Shaojing. Her eyes were cold as she said, “Don’t worry, I’ll teach them a lesson. You’d better watch closely.”
Luo Chao wiped her tears with her hands and nodded. “Okay, Boss!”
Ling Lan walked towards Lian Shaojing, one step at a time. Although the one who had injured the others had his leg broken by Luo Lang and they had taken revenge already, Ling Lan still felt that it wasn’t enough. If it wasn’t for the person in front of her allowing it, how could her comrades have become injured and wronged?
Once Ling Lan left their side, Han Xuya quietly poked Luo Chao. She narrowed her eyes and said softly, “Boss is going to take revenge for you.”
Hearing this, Luo Chao jumped and her entire face became bright red. She suddenly realized that she had been acting cutely towards their boss! This, this, this, was too embarra.s.sing for her.
Luo Chao felt deeply embarra.s.sed and didn’t dare to raise her head, while Qi Long, on the other hand, immediately moved back to make s.p.a.ce for Ling Lan after seeing her walk towards him. He bowed slightly and shouted, “Boss!”
This shout made Lian Shaojing’s expression change slightly. He didn’t expect that the youngster who was at the peak of Qi-Jin wasn’t their strongest member. This other person was definitely stronger to have been able to become that youngster’s boss. Could it be that this boss of theirs had reached the late-stages of Qi-Jin, just like himself? Or was he perhaps a Domain master?
Right when this thought flashed through his head, it was overruled by Lian Shaojing himself. The record for the youngest Domain master in the Federation was never broken by anyone. It seemed that the other party wasn’t a Domain master. He was, at most, likely in the late-stages of Qi-Jin, the Great Perfection level. It was around the same level as Lian Shaojing himself.
Lian Shaojing had never thought that someone would advance without registering. He believed that breaking records represented the glory of every soldier in the alliance and that this sort of joyful information had to be told to the public.
He would never have thought that Ling Lan maintained her neutral behavior because of her gender. Ling Lan didn’t allow herself to behave too over the top, cause everyone to notice and expose her real gender. Also, liking to keep her trump cards, Ling Lan wanted herself to have as many trump cards as possible. Thus, there was no way she would actively expose her real level. She always pretended to be the prey and prey on the predators.
Of course, she couldn’t pretend to be the prey this time. There were too many underlings around, thus she could only upgrade and become a large predator. Even so, Ling Lan still had to pretend to be a normal predator’s pet and make all others forever unable to know her true power.
Lian Shaojing’s mistake in estimating Ling Lan made him understand a bit. The fear he had when he first saw Ling Lan had dissipated by quite a bit. Staring at Ling Lan, he laughed coldly and asked, “You’re the boss of this lot?”
Ling Lan calmly answered, “Indeed.”
Lian Shaojing pointed at Luo Lang and said, “He broke my team member’s leg. What are you going to do about it?” If the other knew how to behave, he would be willing to break one of their legs and then let them go.
Hearing this, the corner of Ling Lan’s mouth showed a hint of disdain. She calmly pulled on her sleeves with an expression that showed no care for Lian Shaojing and asked, “What about it?”
Ling Lan’s att.i.tude immediately provoked Lian Shaojing and anger erupted from inside him. He angrily smiled and stated, “You guys must pay it back in blood.”
“Pay it back in blood? Heh. You let your team member loose and injured my men. What do you say to that?” The killing intent in Ling Lan’s eyes flashed for a moment.
Lian Shaojing smiled slyly. “Well, who told them to annoy my men. Since you guys have entered the division, you all need to know how to survive in the division.”
“Everything is based on strength?” Ling Lan raised a brow. She remembered that this was something Luo Shaoyun, the person who attacked first, had said.
“That’s right. As long as you’re strong enough, you have the right to teach lessons to others.” Right as Lian Shaojing stopped talking, he threw out a strong punch that he had prepared beforehand.
“Bam!” Two fists collided and all the others stepped back due to the ensuing shapeless shockwave once again. A clash between individuals in the late-stages of Qi-Jin was much more powerful than that of the mid-stage level.
Luo Lang and Xie Yi had also taken one step back due to this force. Qi Long was proactive and retreated beside Luo Lang and the others. He didn’t want to stay too close and accidentally get harmed by his own boss.
“Late-stage Qi-Jin, Great Perfection.” Lian Shaojing’s expression changed slightly after he felt the energy from the clash between Ling Lan and himself.
As expected, the opponent’s level was the same as his own. He even felt that the opponent’s energy was thicker and purer than his own. Even though they were at the same level, there would still be some differences in terms of energy. This attack seemed as though they were on par with each other, but in reality, his opponent was stronger than him. It should be known that he had attacked first and the opponent had attacked to intercept his punch. The active attack that was blocked by a pa.s.sive attack made it very clear.
After feeling that he might actually lose to this new recruit who was standing before him, the blood in Lian Shaojing’s eyes became thicker and thicker. There was the look of a wild beast in his eyes.
Right at that moment, a battle team that was on duty in the s.p.a.ceport rushed into the atrium. It was the soldier on duty who had asked for them to come to the atrium. This team saw the people inside and instantly cried in agony internally, while their captain hated the situation even more and almost bit his own tongue off.
It was the Sting Special Forces again. It was this b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lian Shaojing again. Couldn’t he just return to headquarters in peace? Every time they would make a scene at the s.p.a.ceport area. They were only this arrogant because the battle team on duty in the s.p.a.ceport couldn’t do anything to them, weren’t they? The captain of the battle team on duty wished that he was also a master in Qi-Jin and at the Great Perfection level. That way, he would have been able to ruthlessly teach this b.a.s.t.a.r.d Lian Shaojing a lesson.
Although the captain on duty couldn’t teach Lian Shaojing a lesson, he still had to keep the new recruits safe. He could only force himself to lead his team member to rush to the battle between the two sides.
Right at that moment, five or six people suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked his path. He narrowed his eyes and saw that it was actually some new recruits. These guys were Gao Jinyun’s group. They didn’t want the battle team on duty to disrupt their boss’ fight.
“Move out of our way. We have to stop the fight immediately, otherwise everyone in here will be in danger once Captain Lian loses control,” shouted the captain on duty, wearing a pale expression at seeing the wild beast within Lian Shaojing’s eyes.
Did these new recruits not know that the reason why they were rus.h.i.+ng to stop Lian Shaojing’s fight was that they wanted to ensure everyone’s safety?
Being knowledgeable about the Sting Special Forces, this captain knew the capabilities of the captain of the Sting Special Forces very well. Once Lian Shaojing lost control, there most likely wouldn’t be anyone at the s.p.a.ceport that could stop him. In the entire 23rd Division, only the physical skills instructor at headquarters, the special forces commander and several captains of the official battle teams had the ability to stop a berserk Lian Shaojing. It was just that if they waited for reinforcements to arrive, it was possible that most of the people here would have already died.
Unfortunately, his words didn’t move Gao Jinyun and the others. Gao Jinyun firmly replied, “Please wait a moment, Senior Officer.”
“What are you waiting for? If we wait any longer, that new recruit is going to die.” How many blows had been exchanged? He hoped that Lian Shaojing would be merciful and not kill someone.
“Die?” Gao Jinyun’s expression became odd, as he had actually never witnessed anyone hurt his boss before. He pointed to the center of the atrium to indicate to the captain on duty to watch the fight.
The captain on duty couldn’t help it and just watched. He was immediately dumbfounded by what he was seeing because the situation was very different from what he thought. That new recruit wasn’t being completely destroyed by Lian Shaojing. Instead, it was Lian Shaojing, who the captain on duty thought that no one could defeat, who was at a disadvantage.
What was happening? There was actually someone among the new recruits that could go against Lian Shaojing?
The captain on duty was in disbelief. He turned around and looked towards the new recruits, who were all standing calmly. It was as though this scene was very normal for them. It seemed that they knew what they were doing when they stopped the captain from going in to stop the fight. It wasn’t just the new recruits being impulsive and wanting to be heroes or something.
The captain on duty thought about it, calmed down and was no longer in a hurry to stop the fight. The captain on duty was very happy that he was able to see Lian Shaojing make a fool out of himself and even take it up the a.s.s. He was very willing to give this new recruit a chance to do that.
Lian Shaojing’s situation was going from bad to worse. He couldn’t understand it. Even if the quality of his opponent’s energy was better than his by a small degree, it was impossible that his opponent was capable of rendering him helpless to do anything. But no matter how much he attacked or changed his moves, he still couldn’t get out of the bad situation his opponent had put him in.
He fought with frustration. This type of frustration made him anxious. The color of blood in his eyes became thicker and thicker and his eyes became redder and redder. At the very end, both of his eyes were full of rage.
Seeing this, Ling Lan’s lip perked up. It was time.
“Awooo!” Lian Shaojing suddenly howled. As his uniform suddenly burst off his body and his entire body became extremely muscular, he charged towards Ling Lan.
The expression of the captain on duty changed instantly. Lian Shaojing had actually gone berserk and used a restricted military physical skill, which increased the energy of the entire body by five-fold. Once that new recruit was. .h.i.t by this attack, he would at least have all his bones and muscles shattered if he didn’t die from it. Even if he underwent surgery, in the end, he would become a disabled person.
Right that moment, Ling Lan, who was facing Lian Shaojing all this time, suddenly vanished. In the next second, she appeared behind Lian Shaojing and stood back to back with him.
It was as though Lian Shaojing had lost his target and was stunned in place. He stayed in his charging position. After a few seconds, he slowly turned his head to look behind him. His expression now was perplexed and somewhat afraid.
“Bam!” Ling Lan raised her right hand and snapped her fingers.
Lian Shaojing’s body suddenly began exploding with countless lacerations forming on his body, following which he fell to the ground with great force. Immediately, the ground around him was painted by his own blood.
“Captain!” Seeing this situation, Lian Shaojing’s team members were all in dismay. They didn’t even think and all jumped towards Ling Lan, wanting to take revenge for their captain.
However, they couldn’t even get close to Ling Lan. Qi Long, Luo Lang, Xie Yi, Lin Zhong-qing, Han Jijyun, Gao Jinyun and other captains from the First Men’s Military Academy all moved forward. Following this, all the new recruits of the First Men’s Military Academy moved forward and attacked them all at once. Even Han Xuya and the others who could still move joined in and ruthlessly pounced towards the rest of Lian Shaojing’s team.
Their boss had once said that normally, they should fight advantageously when they had the chance. Since they had the power in numbers, then they had to use it to the best of their abilities and not waste it. Everyone of the Lingtian Mecha Clan might not listen to their instructors or captains, but they definitely had to listen to their boss’ words.
Not long after, overrun by the sheer number of people, every member of the Sting Special Forces had all “died”. All of them were lying on the floor lifelessly.
The captain on duty was terrified by the ruthlessness of these new recruits. These guys weren’t new recruits. Their mercilessness wasn’t less than any veteran. His worry in the beginning was definitely a mistake.
However, because he was afraid that the new recruits might not know their bounds and commit murder accidentally, the captain on duty immediately led his men to stop the fight. Unfortunately, the new recruits were just getting excited from the fight and weren’t easy to stop. They couldn’t even squeeze into the crowd and was thrown out by the new recruits.
Chang Xinyuan shared a similar treatment because his ability was too weak. Although he wanted to join in, he would still be squeezed out by the others before he could squeeze in. This made him very annoyed. At that moment, he saw his boss standing on the side and coldly watching everyone engaging in a group fight. He immediately had a thought and quickly found a chair that was still somewhat intact in the rubble, and happily brought it over to Ling Lan.
“Alright.” A cold voice rang in everyone’s ears. It was as though everyone in the First Men’s Military Academy had received an order and immediately stopped moving. They turned around and looked towards their boss.
Chang Xinyuan walked beside Ling Lan and put the chair beside her. He obsequiously patted the chair and said, “Boss, the chair is very clean. Please take a seat.”
This scene made everyone very angry. How could they have forgotten to serve their boss? Sh*t, that chance was taken by that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Chang Xinyuan.
Seeing this, Ling Lan was speechless and she felt herself becoming increasingly more like the antagonist of a story. However, as she didn’t want to disappoint Chang Xinyuan, she calmly sat down.
“Since everything has been resolved, we’ll wait for the arrangements of the s.p.a.ceport,” Ling Lan calmly instructed. “Now, everyone find a seat and sit down.”
After Ling Lan gave the order, the sound of chairs being moved around echoed throughout the atrium. Less than one minute later, everyone had already found seats and sat down.
