The scrutinizing gaze seed to see through all of Li Weifeng’s secrets.
His brow furrowed, and a strong voice echoed in the hall, filled with severity:
"One-ti Bone Tempering, whose child is this, why is he here? Instead of attending school properly, who brought him to this side of the Underground Cave!"
The surroundings were seemingly oppressed by General Xu’s authority; everyone was silent, unable to utter a word.
Li Weifeng stood where he was, his expression unchanged, yet waves surged in his heart.
Just with a glance, he saw through his situation. What realm is this General Xu?
At this mont, Chen Nanchao, who was registering at the side, glanced at Li Weifeng in surprise. Clearly, he hadn’t expected that Li Weifeng had already completed Bone Tempering once.
He stood up and walked to General Xu.
Standing straight, he gave a crisp military salute:
"Report, General, I brought him."
Thoughts flashed through his mind, adding:
"The child’s parents have passed away recently, and he was depressed for quite a while. I wanted to bring him to see the true cruel side of this world to rekindle his spirit, at least he shouldn’t waste away like that."
General Xu’s gaze swept over him up and down, his eyes suddenly beca incredibly sharp.
"Chen Nanchao, I rember you, has your brain turned to mush after you retired? Is this how you treat the orphans of your comrades? Tell , how old is this child!"
"Report, General, eighteen."
"Only eighteen! He should be in school now! Studying hard to beco the pillar of the Hua Country martial artists in the future, rather than like you, not knowing which corner you might die in one day! This is a battlefield! A battlefield for adults to fight!"
General Xu almost roared, his voice exploded like thunder.
Chen Nanchao stood straight, silent, directly facing General Xu’s anger.
The surrounding was silent.
No one dared to speak.
So people seed to realize the reason for General Xu’s anger, their eyes filled with complexity.
"General....."
Li Weifeng hesitated for a mont and stepped forward as he spoke.
But before he could finish speaking, General Xu impatiently interrupted him.
"Get lost, this is not a place for you to play house!"
"General Xu, I believe I can do it."
"A kid who isn’t even an official martial artist, what the hell can you do, go ho and drink milk tomorrow!"
"I can do it!"
Li Weifeng’s voice also rose,
looking straight, head held high, staring into General Xu’s eyes.
Stubborn, determined.
General Xu turned around,
Boom!!!
A powerful aura burst forth, surging like a tide, filling the entire space like a tsunami. The entire space seed to be at the rcy of the Qi and Blood impact.
The surrounding governnt officials, including Chen Nanchao, were forced to take several steps back under this terrifying aura, feeling as if a giant boulder was pressing on them.
Li Weifeng stood his ground, grunted, his face turned white, but his feet did not retreat in the slightest.
The tangible Qi and Blood indeed impacted him.
But that’s all it did.
The body’s essence inside, in other worlds, has seen stronger. The pressure of General Xu’s aura was insufficient to oppress him.
The two of them just stood there, silently deadlocked.
The surroundings were deathly silent.
The oppressive atmosphere in the air was almost maddening.
No one knew how long it lasted.
Suddenly, the aura radiating from General Xu’s body relaxed, and with a calm expression, he said in a flat voice:
"Fine, since you say you can do it, prove to that you have the ability to stand your ground in the Underground Cave World."
"Take my punch."
"I will suppress my power to the stage of a First Grade martial artist. If you can withstand this punch, then I’ll acknowledge you have the qualification to stand here."
"Otherwise, go ho and drink milk!"
"Alright!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Weifeng directly agreed.
The surrounding staff moved aside, creating an open area.
Hearing the commotion here, nearby, so staff from upstairs peeked out.
Chen Nanchao wanted to say sothing but then stopped, looking at General Xu’s face, wringing in water, and Li Weifeng’s calm deanor, he could only sigh inwardly and step back.
In the spacious hall, the two faced off.
Li Weifeng drew circles with his hands and feet, slowly posing into a Tai Chi Boxing starting stance, blending his power into a circle, turning his whole body into an integrated circle, waiting for General Xu to punch.
The aura was strong, but no one was optimistic.
"That kid really dares to agree?"
As the two faced off,
soone in the crowd whispered.
"He’s dood to lose, General Xu is a High Grade martial artist. His control over power is extrely delicate. Even if he suppresses his Qi and Blood power to the First Grade level, no First Grade martial artist can take this punch, let alone that young man who isn’t even an official martial artist. How can he take the General’s move?"
"Yes, judging by the kid’s starting stance, it’s probably Tai Chi. Just trying to use Tai Chi to deflect the General’s punch is simply impossible."
"Too confident, being said to be a once Bone Tempering quasi-martial artist already makes him a top-tier talent even in the Martial Universities. This should be a genius’s confidence, but so things can’t be broken just by confidence."
No one was optimistic about Li Weifeng against General Xu’s trial.
Not to ntion General Xu is already a High Grade martial artist, mastery over power is incomparable for ordinary people.
This is a gap of quality and quantity.
Even facing a true First Grade martial artist, for an unbroken quasi martial artist to withstand one punch, the difficulty is imnse.
In the eyes of everyone, Li Weifeng was already undoubtedly poised to lose.
This is an indisputable fact.
However, knowing the outco, everyone still gathered around to watch.
Among the crowd, Chen Nanchao’s expression shifted between General Xu and Li Weifeng, filled with complexity.
He had so speculations about General Xu’s strong reaction.
It’s just, the thing that happened back then... it actually couldn’t be blad on the General at all...
"Sigh, this might be for the best. Since Xiaofeng is already a once Bone Tempering quasi-martial artist, the Underground Cave World indeed shouldn’t be where he grows."
In this Pioneer City, there are tens of thousands of soldiers, many are still ordinary people, not all are official martial artists.
In the city’s service industry, among the personnel serving official martial artists, there are also many ordinary people.
Compared to those ordinary people, Li Weifeng’s situation isn’t without the qualification to stay in Pioneer City.
Just with one Bone Tempering as a quasi martial artist, spending four years in a prestigious martial university would establish a base of Third Grade upon graduation, with a high probability of becoming Fourth Grade, even higher level.
Compared to the current combat power of a quasi-limit martial artist, future Middle Grade and even High Grade martial artists would be more effective for Hua Country in resisting the Underground Cave invasion.
In General Xu’s view, it’s preferable for Li Weifeng to co to the Underground Cave after achieving Third Grade for training rather than perishing here with low strength.
This is his principle as a soldier!
