39 The Might of the Yin Leg (1/2)

He had only just realized how extraordinary the girl's strength was at this moment. Although he had a desire to imitate it, instead he swallowed the desire. It was only then that he also noticed the many calluses on her hands and how firm her arm muscles were. Evidently, she was a someone who regularly trained in martial arts.

It was a good thing that Hong Lü had started his training in martial arts at such a young age. When he lost his balance, Hong Lu just took a big step out and stuck out his shoulders. Then he ran straight into the girl's embrace like a charging bull.

Although dealing with the girl was a little low-handed, desperate times called for desperate measures so Hong Lü did not care so much. Just as Mo Wen said, there was no glory in winning but losing would bring embarrassment.

The tall and sturdy boy gave it his all in one hit. Since Hong Lü had summoned all his strength, this one hit was strong.

The girl panicked for a moment. She did not expect Hong Lü's reaction to be that fast. She meant to throw out a punch but in her anxiousness, she subconsciously kicked out a leg and gave a direct kick onto Hong Lü's crotch.

”Aiyo!”

”Ow…”

The two different sounds had rung out simultaneously. One was a cry of pain while the other one was really just odd grunt, as if someone was desperately trying to suppress something.

Between the girl and Hong Lü was a distance of over 6.5 feet which was formed after they collided. The girl fell to the ground in an instant as she held onto one side of her shoulder with a pained expression.

As for Hong Lü, he was crossing his legs at the moment and his entire body was curled up. Both his hands were covering his crotch and his face was pale. He didn't move for a long time.

Wang Yuan could not suppress his amusement and could not stop laughing while he said, ”Pft…that little lady is so fierce and tough! Haha…”

The girl had used the ”Yin Leg” and that naturally did not go unnoticed by Wang Yuan. At this moment, paired with Hong Lü's odd-looking movements, he laughed till his chest hurt.

Mo Wen's lips could not help but twitch a little as well. It seemed like the girl had trained that technique really well.

It wasn't just Mo Wen and Wang Yuan observing either. In the far distance, four other battalions were observing the match and all similarly exploded with laughter.

There were two combat rings on the drill ground. The ring that was attracting more attention was naturally the one where the girl from the 1st Battalion was fighting against the 4th Battalion. It was safe to say that the situation had been witnessed by at least half of the people gathered.

The girl climbed up from the ground and gave Hong Lü a fierce glare while saying, ”I admit defeat”, before turning around and returning to her team. She knew that if they continued the battle, she would not be able to defeat Hong Lü.

Hong Lu's previous strike was held back at the most crucial moment which reduced the strength of the hit by half. It seemed questionable whether or not she would even be able to stand up to him with the time remaining.

After all, combat practice is just a friendly competition. No one would go too harsh on purpose, especially if their opponent was a girl.

Hong Lü stood in the middle awkwardly, his face alternating between white and red. That girl had really damaged him. She had used that technique in front of so many people. He was unsure how long he would be teased and laughed at by his fellow trainees because of it.

Wang Yuan continued laughing as he gestured a thumbs-up at Hong Lü, ”Hong Lü is awesome. I'm pretty sure we won't even have to go out and fight. He can handle everything. Such a teammate is a good teammate.”

If he did not have to fight, then he'd be glad. If he also became a victim of the Yin Leg, then that would be something to cry about.

Hong Lü won two rounds consecutively and continued on to the third round. If he maintained his winning streak, then the competition would conclude and the 1st Battalion would lose.

The third person to be sent out by the 1st Battalion was a short-haired girl. Although her battalion had consecutively lost two rounds, her expression remained calm.

”I'm Wang Xiaofei”, said the girl as she walked out with a sweet smile. It was as if she was a cutesy girl and not a tough girl who was about to fight someone.

”Hi there, I'm Hong Lü”, replied Hong Lü. He saw that Wang Xiaofei was rather pretty and his face softened quite a bit. He revealed a smile that he seemed to think looked cool, ”Little sister Xiaofei, don't be scared, I will show mercy.”

”Thank you so much, big brother Hong”, Wang Xiaofei let out a sweet smile as she harmlessly blinked her eyes.

Hong Lü felt light on his feet upon being called big brother by Wang Xiaofei. His hands were behind his back and he tried to lengthen himself to appear taller.
