29 The Ultimate Dare (2/2)
Jun Xie paused for a while and continued, ”… do you want to let your children enjoy the same privileges as I do? If you become successful… then your children can afford to become a useless debauchee as me whom no one can bully. Your success will put your children in a powerful position. Do you realize that your success will enable your children to climb to the top of the ladder without making any effort? Your family can even become as influential as the Jun family, the Li family and the Dugu family. Your efforts and hard work can help transform the luck of your children and grandchildren.”
Everyone became excited as they thought of the colorful picture of their bright future painted by Jun Xie. They clenched their fists tightly, and their eyes became red.
Suddenly, Jun Xie shouted out, ”Do you want it or not? Say yes or no!”
”Yes!” the guards shouted in unison. Their voice was so loud that even the sky shook. It seemed as if the Heaven and the earth had shook together.
Jun Xie looked at them coldly and said, ”Alright! Now, listen to me carefully. No one’s allowed to complain during my training sessions. You can be assured that your efforts and sacrifices will reap you the greatest profits under my guidance. But, you must also remember this very important fact. A few of you may die under my training… and a few may end-up getting disabled. You may have to pay this price. So, I’m giving you a chance to reconsider my leadership. Think carefully. Then, who so ever is interested in training under me can take a step forward. The rest of you may remain standing at your place. I’m warning you people again. You can’t quit my leadership once you accept it – until and unless you die. So, you should make your choice after a careful consideration.”
Then, Jun Xie shouted, ”I’ll count up to three. You must make up your mind before that.”
All the three-hundred men stepped forward with a firm expression on their faces with the count of one. They had moved their feet with such force that the dust on the ground had been raised to the sky; even the ground had seemed to tremble under their strength.
Jun Wu Yi had been watching all this from the side. He looked at all the people with eyes full of admiration and veneration.
Jun Xie had lifted the morale of all the three-hundred men through the means of provocation; so much so that they wouldn’t question even if they were ordered to march to their deaths. Jun Xie’s words had brought out the blood-thirsty aspect of these people’s nature. Jun Wu Yi was himself a general. He was used to build-up the morale of his soldiers. Jun Xie’s words had even provoked him; so much so that his blood was boiling and he was breathing heavily. He felt as if he was looking over a blazing battlefield with smoky air, piles of corpses and a sea of blood.
A long howl rose from within his soul. He could see a thousand soldiers marching up to their deaths with fire in their hearts. They seemed ready to charge through a hundred wars and live their lives without any regrets.
Jun Wu Yi and the three-hundred guards shared the same amount of excitement, and were exuding wild sparks from their eyes.
All the three-hundred people had a same thought in their minds – they would rather embrace death in place of living a humiliating life.
Even Jun Xie hadn’t imagined that his speech would create a strong team of capable men who were ready to shake the entire world. This team would be god-like. These people would fill fear into the hearts of their enemies, and would force them to retreat in the battlefield.
Jun Xie named this team as the Heavenly Destroyer and Spirit Devourer!
The Evil Monarch’s first team of invincible warriors had been born. A god-like team had been born out of utter humiliation. No one knew what this team had in store for the world…
