Chapter 151 - Cang Dragon’s Claw (2/2)

“Sergeant Huo, would you like to join us?”

Someone at the training center shouted at him, and then he heard a wave of cheers, willing him to pay attention.

Huo Donglai turned his head over and saw the Cang Dragon unit had paused their exercise. Tank was the one who called out to him, and he was giving him a challenging look.

“Little s.h.i.+t, it’s only been half a month. Don’t get ahead of yourself.” Huo Donglai laughed in his mind.

Before Chen Fan arrived, Sergeant Huo was revered as the strongest fighter by the Cang Dragon members. His Ba Ji Fist was extremely powerful and overbearing.

“Sergeant Hou, why don’t you teach these little s.h.i.+ts a lesson?” A sergeant encouraged Sergeant Huo.

“Humph!” Huo Donglai looked to Chen Fan, and after he had gotten Chen Fan’s approving node, he walked toward the training ground. “Tank, you are so full of yourself. Do you really think you could be stronger than me in half a month?”

“We will see!”

Tank laughed as he charged toward Huo Donglai, stirring up a gust of wind. He opened up his arms like an alerted lobster, and when he got close enough to his target, he clamped his arms like a grizzly bear hugging a tree trunk. The amount of force in the attack could easily squash a car.

“Excellent!”

Huo Donglai spread his legs and sank his body into a Horse Stance. Meanwhile, he reached out both arms, ready to counter the attack.

Suddenly, Huo Donglai stamped the ground under his feet and cracked the surface of the pavement. The ground pushed back at him, launching his body forward.

“Mounted on Mountain! That’s a signature Ba Ji move!”

Sergeant Gu exclaimed. He had heard that if the move was used by a Transcendent Master, he could crush a small hill. Although Huo Donglai was not a Transcendent Master by a long shot, he was only half a step away from reaching the peak of Internal Force cultivation.

Huo Donglia’s charge could ram through three layers of metal sheets

Even as Huo Donglai thought he already had the victory in the bag, Tank changed tactics. With a soft wheezing sound, Tank folded his body and turned his two-meter tall hulking frame into a large ball. Before Huo Donglai realized what was going on, the ball rolled away from Huo Donglai and reached behind the sergeant. Then, the ball unfurled itself, returning to the hulking frame that it once was.

Despite his seemingly c.u.mbersome weight, Tank steadied himself within a second, and then he shot out an arm and clawed at the back of Huo Donglai.

“What the—”

Huo Donglai was still stunned by the development, suddenly, he felt a cold wind blowing at the nape of his neck. If not for his decades of hard training, Huo Donglai might not be able to swerve to the side to avoid the deadly claw.

“Stth…”

He heard his clothes being torn apart.

Huo Donglai let out a painful cry and quickly disengaged from his opponent. The audience finally noticed that half of his s.h.i.+rt on the left side was torn off, revealing three long and b.l.o.o.d.y claw marks.

“Cang Dragon’s Claw!”

Huo Donglai was stunned by the development and it took him a while to finally gather himself. After he did, he let out a wry smile.

He had always thought that the Cang Dragon Physical Conditioning Exercise only strengthened their boy, but it occurred to him that the training also boosted their fighting skills. Tank had only used a very simple move in the training routine, yet he was able to completely dominate the fight against a Ba Ji martial artist with three decades of training.

“Head Sergeant is an immortal, you should not underestimate the effect of his training program.”

Tank said proudly.

The other Cang Dragon soldiers nodded in agreement. Having witnessed the turn of the event, everyone looked to Chen Fan as devotees would to their G.o.d.

Just half a month ago, Tank was easily defeated by Sergeant Huo, half a month later, the table had been turned. What could these soldiers achieve in half years? By then, defeating Sergeant Huo would only be a walk in the park.

The other sergeants shook their heads bitterly as the sense of helplessness and self-pity rose inside their hearts.

Suddenly, someone shouted: “Head Sergeant Chen, why don’t you spar with us too?”

There was a brief moment of silence before the question set in. Then, a wave of cheers erupted.

“Yes! Head Sergeant, show us your abilities!”
