At the start, I tricked the school beauty, and ended up with twins? Chapter 456: 427 New Rules of the Combat Room

Chapter 456: Chapter 427 New Rules of the Combat Room

Gu Yu had never sweated so profusely and freely; although every part of his body was tired and sore, he felt incredibly exhilarated.

After a week of accumulating fatigue aboard the Ark, he felt completely refreshed as if his whole being had beco translucent.

“Aweso!!” Suddenly, a shout from Ge Zhengxiang ca from the other side.

Without speaking, Gu Yu simply lay on the ground and rested for another dozen seconds before struggling to his feet in a kip-up.

He walked over to Ge Zhengxiang and reached out his hand.

Ge Zhengxiang looked at him, flashed a grin, then grasped Gu Yu’s hand and leveraged himself up.

“I’ve never had such an exhilarating free-fighting match!”

He rotated his shoulders and said cheerfully.

Gu Yu nodded in agreent, “Sa here, I feel much more refreshed.”

The crowd below, watching this harmonious scene, suddenly beca confused—who won in the end?

“Squad Leader Ge, who won between you and Gu Yu?”

“Yeah! The two of you hit the ground so fast, we couldn’t see who fell first.”

The onlooking soldiers below were curiously asking one after another.

Upon hearing this question, Ge Zhengxiang and Gu Yu exchanged a smile, then fist-bumped each other and said in unison, “This match on the stage isn’t about winning.”

“What? No one won?”

“If no one won, then who is the top fighter in our combat room?”

“Yeah! You can’t both be number one, right?”

The crowd was completely baffled—a match without a winner?

Seeing the crowd getting rowdy, Ge Zhengxiang gave a helpless smile. He turned to Gu Yu, “How about you say a few words?”

“You go ahead, you’re a bit more authoritative.”

Gu Yu shook his head, passing the opportunity to explain to Ge Zhengxiang.

Ge Zhengxiang nodded, walked to the edge of the stage, cleared his throat with two coughs, and began, “Cough cough, both Gu Yu and I were simply sparring with the intention of ‘using martial arts to et friends,’ not to determine who is the top fighter in the combat room for such a hollow title.”

“This isn’t so foreign WWE, ha-ha. Wasn’t our original purpose in coming to the combat room to channel our energy and et friends through martial arts? Why have we started to be concerned with these ssy rankings now?”

“Besides, even if you were the top fighter in the combat room, what of it? What era are we living in now? No matter how skilled you are in martial arts, you’re still afraid of a machine gun!”

Ge Zhengxiang looked at the packed crowd below with a serious face, and everyone fell silent.

Indeed, the atmosphere in the combat room had changed a lot. Before, everyone freely shared fighting techniques and sparred, but now it had gradually turned into a place for competing over rankings.

Moreover, people had started to form factions and cliques, each supporting the strongest fighter in their group.

This was strictly prohibited by regulations!

Seeing everyone silenced by his words, Ge Zhengxiang knew they had taken his ssage to heart, so he inserted a joke to lighten the mood:

“Not sure if you’ve heard this one, but beyond five steps, a gun is fast, within five steps, a gun is both fast and accurate!”

The crowd went quiet:”…”

Three seconds later: “Hahaha…” The whole room erupted in laughter.

Indeed, which one of them hadn’t handled a gun? They knew the power of a firearm all too well.

Even the most skilled combatant could be easily taken down with an ordinary Type 92 pistol.

The era of cold weapons was long gone. In this age of prevalent firearms, no matter how strong soone’s personal combat ability was, at most they could endure a few more minutes after being hit by bullets…

Practicing martial arts, the greatest functions are self-protection and strengthening the body!

“So, I suggest that, starting from today, we cancel those ssy titles and rankings in our combat room, and let’s not form teams based on seniority either. Let’s return to the original state of making friends through martial arts!”

Seeing the atmosphere liveliness again, Ge Zhengxiang took the opportunity to propose a reform of the combat room’s rules.

Of course, everyone promptly voiced their agreent.

“Good!” Among the many affirmations, a particularly resounding “Good!” imdiately drew everyone’s attention to the figure behind Ge Zhengxiang, on the other side of the ring.

People tiptoed to look and imdiately saw Du Zhenhua, standing amidst the crowd with a beaming smile on his face!

“The captain is here!”

“When did the captain arrive?”

“I was wondering why it was only our side talking, and the doorway was so quiet… Turns out, Captain Du and his group had co…”

The voices of the crowd grew quieter, as they saw not only Captain Du but also their respective superiors.

“Chief Du!” Ge Zhengxiang hurriedly brought his heels together to salute; he had not expected to see these chiefs, who were usually nowhere to be found, all gathered here today.

He was sowhat overwheld by the attention, were all these high-ranking officers really here to watch his and Gu Yu’s match?

“Haha, no need to be so formal,” Du Zhenhua responded with a salute before casually laughing.

Ge Zhengxiang felt embarrassed; true, he had said that, but where was Captain Du a re superior-subordinate in the grand sche of things!

This was the captain! The highest authority on the Ark!

He was rely a squad leader, with no place to speak before Captain Du.

“Ah, if I wasn’t about to inspect the entire ship, I’d get on the stage and spar with you two, no doubt I’d lay you flat!”

Looking at the two drenched in sweat, Du Zhenhua spoke leisurely.

“Haha, who aboard the Ark doesn’t know that Chief Du was the champion in the Hundred-Regints Top Expert Competition! Against the two of us, one hand would be enough!”

Squad Leader Ge laughed heartily, even though Du Zhenhua’s words seed boastful, anyone slightly familiar with Du Zhenhua’s past glories knew of his once-prominent skills.

He truly was a top expert who had risen from a million others!

Not to ntion Du Zhenhua’s terrifying combat experience.

Despite appearing to be over fifty, Squad Leader Ge had no doubts that in a one-on-one fight, he wouldn’t last two moves before being pinned to the ground.

“Hahahaha, you guys need more practice!” Du Zhenhua laughed heartily and then turned to his subordinates, “Improve the als a bit, add so protein, so they can grow so muscle.”

“Understood!” An officer of an undetermined rank responded.

“Alright, you guys continue training. Only by training well can you better protect yourselves, your comrades, and our motherland!”

After all, Captain Du had only co for an inspection, and given his position, despite his approachability, he couldn’t possibly integrate with the ordinary officers and soldiers.

“Yes, sir!!!” The crowd responded loudly.

The surrounding junior officers and soldiers, energized as if injected with adrenaline, picked up training equipnt nearby and began their exercises.

And as Captain Du walked away, Gu Yu couldn’t help feeling that Captain Du seed to have intentionally, or perhaps unintentionally, glanced at him several tis.

“Alright, let’s get down. We’ll leave the ring to others.”

Squad Leader Ge watched the group of officers leave, then flipped himself off the ring.

Gu Yu nodded and followed suit, leaping down from the ring.

But before he could steady himself, a delicate hand grabbed his ear.
