That was just an excuse! Li s.h.i.+yu stopped himself. The fact was, he neglected his teammate. If he had shown more concern towards Li Lanfeng, he would have noticed the change in his physical skills.

Li s.h.i.+yu felt guilty. He started reprimanding himself. He still didn’t treat Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun as his real friends. If it was his eldest cousin brother, he would have noticed any changes with him right away.

Li s.h.i.+yu knew that he was in the wrong. However, he was afraid of hurting Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng’s feelings so he forced himself to maintain calm. He must make them believed that they were important to him. He would start treating them like his family from now on.

Li Lanfeng used one sentence to solve the potential trust crisis between them. Ling Lan smiled. Li Lanfeng was indeed a sly and cunning person. He managed to turn the situation around in just a split second.

Shen Rufei realized his instigation was useless. He was furious. This change in emotion caused him to reveal an opening to Li Lanfeng.

Li Lanfeng rushed towards Shen Rufei without any hesitation. He swung the broken chair leg and it formed lingering shadows in the air. “Bang, bang, bang.” The two weapons collided with each other as the two people started fighting again.

The fights between soldiers were b.l.o.o.d.y and serious. They would not hold back unlike cadets in the military academies. Unless they couldn’t find any weapons, soldiers wouldn’t fight empty-handed. This was why the fights between soldiers were known as armed melee challenges.

Shen Rufei and Li Lanfeng fought with all their might. “Boom!” Li Lanfeng swung his weapon forcefully at Shen Rufei. Shen Rufei tilted his body to the side and dodged the attack. The weapon hit the ground and a crack formed on the floor. The crack stopped right in front of the crowd.

Ling Lan’s prediction was accurate. She was certain about the capabilities of these two people. The force of a Qi-Jin level attack could only travelled at most 30 meters. If the crowd stayed further than 30 meters away from them, they would not be implicated.

The logistics commander smiled bitterly. Both the people who were fighting were higher ranked than him. How was he supposed to stop them?

The logistics commander looked at the floor and then s.h.i.+fted his gaze back onto the two people that were fighting. He told himself that he was too engrossed in watching the fight so he didn’t notice anyone destroying public properties.

Shen Rufei was furious after dodging the attack. He wanted to kick Li Lanfeng.

Li Lanfeng moved and evaded the kick. His movements were weird and unpredictable. Qi Long, Luo Lang, Han Jijyun and Lin Zhong-qing saw his movements and stopped worrying about him.

They had been with Ling Lan for the longest time so they knew that was a unique skill created by their boss. It was the most suitable skill to be used in close-range combat.

Shen Rufei missed Li Lanfeng and kicked the floor instead. Cracks formed on the floor again. The logistics commander saw it and decided to brainwashed himself. “I didn’t see anything…”

Li Lanfeng noticed that Shen Rufei was stuck so he immediately aimed his weapon at Shen Rufei’s face. The force caused wind to form around him.

Shen Rufei had not regained his balance so there was no way he could dodge the attack. He gritted his teeth and forced himself to receive the blow with his weapon.

“Boom!” A loud noise erupted beside Shen Rufei’s ear. The sound of the collision burst his eardrum as the weapon struck too close to his ears. Blood slowly flowed out of his ear.

Shen Rufei gasped in pain. The pain irritated him. He used his left hand to grab Li Lanfeng’s right hand which was holding the weapon. He raised his weapon and slammed it down on Li Lanfeng with a hideous grin.

Li Lanfeng was shocked by the loud noise just now. However, he was further away from the weapons when they collided so he was not hurt. However, without the pain to stimulate him, he reacted slower than Shen Rufei and was caught by surprise. He was unable to escape.

In the face of such crisis, Li Lanfeng remained calm. He knew that he couldn’t avoid Shen Rufei’s attack so he decided to release all his spiritual power. He gasped and blood flowed out of his mouth. The spiritual power he released was far greater than what his body could handle. Hence, he received some internal injuries.

But, with the help of his spiritual power, Li Lanfeng was able to a.n.a.lyze Shen Rufei’s attack and the weapon’s trajectory.

There is a chance! Li Lanfeng saw an opportunity. He flicked his wrist and threw his weapon out and caught it with his left hand. He focused all his internal energy on his left hand and swung his left hand as hard as he could at Shen Rufei.

“Bang!” Another loud noise rang by their ear drums. Both weapons flew out of their hands.

The noise hurt both their eardrums this time. However, since Shen Rufei was hurt the second time, he was in a worse state the Li Lanfeng. More blood flowed out from both of his ears. It dripped onto his shoulders and stained his military uniform.

Clang! Clang! The two weapons fell on the floor. They rolled a few meters away before stopping. Everyone noticed that the two straight metal pipes were now badly dented and damaged.

“Bam!” The two people that lost their weapon had no choice but to use their fist.

Shen Rufei held onto Li Lanfeng tightly so Li Lanfeng couldn’t escape. However, Shen Rufei couldn’t dodge Li Lanfeng’s retaliation too.

“Bam!” “Bam!” “Bam!” …

Their fist smashed onto each other again and again. Soon, both their fists were filled with blisters and wounds. They had forgotten all about battling techniques. They were just using raw brutal force to attack one another. It was a fight based on strength and stamina.

The members of Lingtian were silent but they clenched their fist tightly and prayed for Li Lanfeng. They didn’t expect the gentle and cunning Li Lanfeng to have such a violent side to him too. They felt their adrenaline pumping through their veins.

“Three more attacks and the match will end.” Ling Lan’s smile got brighter.

Three attacks later, Shen Rufei suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood. He lost. The injuries from their Qi-Jin attacks as well as the physical injuries from the brawl acc.u.mulated inside him and it overwhelmed his body.

Li Lanfeng smiled at him sarcastically. He used all his energy left and punched Shen Rufei one last time.

Shen Rufei flew ten meters away and slammed forcefully onto the floor. He didn’t stand up again. He had been knocked unconscious.

Li Lanfeng couldn’t control himself anymore. He spit out some blood and fell to the floor.

A figure flashed in front of him and caught him in his arm.

Li Lanfeng looked up at the cold and handsome face. He smiled. “Ling Lan, I didn’t embarra.s.s you, right?”

“You didn’t.” Ling Lan replied him softly. She couldn’t see Li Lanfeng’s face but she felt that his smile must be handsome. It should be a hopeful and lively smile.

Ling Lan understood how Li Lanfeng felt. His spectre abilities caused him to dominate the virtual world but in return, he gained a weak body. He couldn’t pilot a mecha in real life. This was a huge blow to a man who wanted to become a powerful mecha operator.

Many people would have given up in their dreams and wallowed in self-pity. However, Li Lanfeng didn’t. Although he had no chance of getting better, he still persevered for 20 years until he met Ling Lan…

Now, Li Lanfeng overcame his greatest hurdle, his weak body. Ling Lan believed that this man would create his own legacy soon.

After he heard Ling Lan’s reply, Li Lanfeng closed his eyes happily and fainted. His body was still weaker than Shen Rufei but he managed to last longer because of his spiritual power. This was why he won.

Ling Lan carried him with both hands and shouted, “s.h.i.+yu!”

“Yes, captain!” Li s.h.i.+yu regained his senses and quickly rushed out.

Ling Lan pa.s.sed Li Lanfeng to Li s.h.i.+yu. Li s.h.i.+yu carried Li Lanfeng towards the crowd with Zhao Jun quickly coming over to help. They placed Li Lanfeng on a bench nearest to them.

Li s.h.i.+yu felt around Li Lanfeng’s body. He realized that Li Lanfeng was hanging on by a thread. He immediately took out a pendant around his neck. There were three diamonds on the pendant. Li s.h.i.+yu felt around the pendants and three silver needles appeared in his hand.

No one saw how he did it but Li s.h.i.+yu stopped the heavy bleeding with his needles. Then, he flicked the pendant opened. There was a miniature medicine bottle in the pendant.

Li s.h.i.+yu gently opened the bottle. He pinched Li Lanfeng’s chin and opened his mouth. Li s.h.i.+yu poured the medicine into his mouth.

The effects would be faster and better if the medicine was directly injected into the bloodstream. However, Li s.h.i.+yu rushed over here just now so he didn’t bring his medical kit with him. He could only feed the medicine to Li Lanfeng.

Luckily, Li s.h.i.+yu’s medicine were very effective. He believed that none of the emergency medicine in the Federation was as effective as his. It was just a small bottle but it took him two years to make it. It required a lot of time and effort to make this one bottle of medicine.
