Infiltrating the world of cultivation
Chapter 57 A small test of one’s skills
The following day, Wang Chao was awakened from his meditation by the sounds of his warriors practicing in the morning.
The training ground was filled with a heated atmosphere, and when Wang Chao came out, many people looked in his direction.
They whispered amongst themselves, their eyes darting around, but fell silent again when the dynasty drew near.
But Wang Chao was a cultivator at the third stage of Qi Refining, and he overheard every word of the warriors' conversation.
It's simply saying that he has connections but no real skills, and he came here to gain military merit.
The dynasty was not angry. It was normal for them to have such thoughts. If you were fighting for your life every day, and suddenly a delicate and well-connected person came along and rode on your head, you probably wouldn't be able to stand it.
A true strong person will never get angry when faced with ridicule. Anger only proves that you are not strong enough. If you are strong enough, you can conquer others with your actions.
"Grand Governor."
A burly soldier walked out from the crowd; he appeared to be an officer. The two men who were fighting bare-chested slowly separated.
Grand Commander? Wang Chao smiled bitterly. Li Hu was really using him as a pawn!
"You guys continue!"
Wang Chao waved his hand, indicating that everyone should continue training and not pay any attention to him.
"Grand Commander, the brothers would like to spar with you in martial arts! Would it be convenient for you, Grand Commander?"
When the burly soldier spoke, a murmur rippled through the crowd below, accompanied by shouts and cheers, as if afraid the commotion wouldn't be big enough.
"Oh? I've just arrived as the Grand Commander, and you're already trying to intimidate me?"
Wang Chao said with a half-smile, which startled the soldier. After all, Wang Chao was an official of the court. If he went back and stirred up trouble, it would cause a huge uproar.
After all, although the soldiers stationed in the northern prefecture did not obey the orders of the court, they still had to rely on supplies from the interior for food and provisions.
"What are you saying, Grand Commander? Who dares to challenge you? What are you all doing here making a scene? Get back to training!"
The burly soldier feigned anger and berated the crowd.
"What's your name?"
Wang Chao looked at the burly soldier and turned slightly to the side.
"Reporting to the Grand Commander, this humble servant is Ma Han!"
Ma Han answered calmly and confidently, but inwardly he was uneasy. Why was he being asked his name? Was he planning to settle scores later?
Upon hearing Ma Han's name, Wang Chao's lips twitched. "My name is Wang Chao, and yours is Ma Han. What does this mean?"
"Very well, today I will have a contest with all the generals and soldiers, so that they won't think that I, the parachuted Grand Commander, am just a playboy who seeks to gain merit."
Wang Chao walked straight to the center of the open space.
"Grand Commander, this is unacceptable! Fists and feet have no eyes; it would be terrible if someone got hurt."
Although Mahan said it wasn't good, he was secretly pleased. "Serves you right for trying to save face! Don't say I didn't warn you when you get a lesson."
"It's alright. My dynasty is here. Who dares to challenge me?"
Although Wang Chao was wearing a long robe, it did not hinder his movements.
Now, Wang Chao's short hair has grown to his neck and is tied back on his head.
Although it hasn't grown long yet, it already has a capable feel to it; it's just that its skin is too delicate, so it doesn't look very intimidating.
"I come!"
One soldier spoke up in a low voice and stepped out from the crowd, his gait exuding a powerful and commanding presence.
"I am Wei Xiong, a centurion in the 10th Column, at the mid-stage of the Day After Tomorrow realm!"
Wei Xiong let out a loud shout, full of energy and quite imposing.
"It's Centurion Wei! This is going to be interesting. Centurion Wei is a mid-stage Acquired Realm martial artist. It is said that he will break through to the late stage of Acquired Realm soon. His external martial arts skills are quite formidable. That Grand Commander is probably no match for him!"
Upon seeing Wei Xiong appear, one of the soldiers immediately made a judgment.
"Hmph! I bet the Grand Commander won't last ten moves! If he does, I'll eat shit on the spot!"
Some soldiers made bold statements, and he simply didn't believe that a seemingly fragile dynasty could have any real strength.
Upon hearing the warrior's words, Wang Chao's expression twitched involuntarily.
I remember during the fight with Zhang Quan at the Nanshan Ling Mine, someone threatened to eat shit. Has eating shit become fashionable now? Why are so many people vying to eat it?
"If you're going to fight, then fight! Why all the nonsense!"
Dynasty has no interest in introducing itself. Does it expect them to shout, "I am Dynasty, a Qi Refining Stage 3 cultivator?" How would they possibly portray the act of pretending to be weak while actually being strong?
"Look at the fist!"
Wei Xiong originally wanted to save face for Wang Chao, but now he changed his mind. He wanted to teach Wang Chao a lesson so that he wouldn't become arrogant and ignorant.
The dynasty also came into play, but it did not use spiritual power.
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Wang Chao took a step back, dodging Wei Xiong's fierce punch.
Then, we see the dynasty begin to tiptoe, sometimes moving forward, sometimes backward, with both hands protecting its head.
What style of boxing is this? The crowd was a little confused. They kept moving forward and backward. Wouldn't they get tired?
Wei Xiong threw some tentative punches, but Wang Chao nimbly dodged them each time. Wang Chao's unexpected punches often caught people off guard.
Before long, Wei Xiong received several punches to the face from Wang Chao. The man who had previously threatened to eat shit turned red in the face. He hadn't expected Wang Chao to play by his own rules.
This bizarre style of boxing was something no one had ever heard of before.
After Wei Xiong realized that the dynasty was not just for show, he began to take it seriously.
As a result, Wei Xiong received several more punches to the face, which immediately enraged him. As a centurion, how could he face anyone after being insulted like this?
However, as time went on, Wei Xiong received more and more punches to the face, and at this point, everyone realized that something was wrong.
This newly arrived Grand Commander clearly has the ability to defeat Wei Xiong, yet he chooses to toy with him here. He's so cunning! The onlookers all felt sorry for Wei Xiong.
However, if it were me, and I had the ability but was looked down upon by others, I would probably do something even worse than the dynasty.
"I'm not fighting anymore! I'm not fighting anymore! Grand Commander, I concede, you win!"
Wei Xiong surrendered immediately. He felt so frustrated. This wasn't a friendly sparring match; they were just making a fool of him!
However, Wei Xiong did not harbor any resentment towards the dynasty because of this. If he was not as skilled as the dynasty, he would simply train hard and eventually surpass the dynasty.
Complaining and blaming others is the act of a coward; a true warrior dares to face failure.
Falling down isn't scary; what's scary is blaming your shoes for hurting your feet when you fall down, and instead of reflecting on your own actions when something happens, you blame others.
One should always reflect on oneself. It must be said that Wei Xiong thought things through very thoroughly and did not get stuck on trivial matters.
"My purpose in coming to the training ground today is not to humiliate you all, but because I have discovered that there are systemic problems with the garrison troops in this Northern Kingdom County."
The dynasty didn't beat around the bush; it expressed its message directly. The army is a similar place; there aren't many twists and turns. One is one, and two is two. Unlike outside, where one is two minus one, and two is one plus one, it's not that simple things are complicated.
If the dynasty hadn't taught Wei Xiong a lesson, everyone would have scoffed. But now, some of them were listening, and they wanted to see what the dynasty could say.
Upon hearing this, Ma Han subtly gave his subordinate a wink, and the subordinate immediately understood and jogged away.
