"After a night's rest, you should all be almost fully recovered, right?"

Lin Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, dressed in a crisp military uniform, a departure from his usual casual attire. He was followed by Yuan Gang and other instructors, exuding an imposing aura.

"I once said that as long as you can take off the masks of the Masked Squad, you will have the opportunity to challenge me."

The five who fought the Masked Squad one-on-one yesterday will challenge me as representatives of the new recruits. Any objections?

The new recruits below looked solemn and answered in unison, "No!"

Lin Xiao nodded in satisfaction, then called out loudly, "Lin Qiye, Baili Tuming, Shen Qingzhu, Cao Yuan, Mo Li, step forward!"

The five people quickly took a step forward in unison.

Lin Xiao turned his gaze to Lin Wan'er beside him. She had her hair in a bun and was wearing a military uniform, looking exceptionally heroic. His eyes sparkled with a smile.

"Little Wan'er, come on over too. If you don't show your strength, some people might be unwilling to accept it."

Lin Wan'er obediently walked to Molly's side and softly replied, "Okay."

Soon, the crowd cleared a space for the seven of them. Lin Xiao casually picked up a long stick, gently swung it around, and felt the texture of the stick.

"Release your seals and you may choose your weapons freely. Seven Nights, you can use the Zanpakuto; there's no need to switch to an ordinary sword."

Lin Qiye silently picked up Zhan Bai, which he had just placed aside, feeling somewhat conflicted.

The White-Cut Sword was originally a gift from Lin Xiao, but now he was going to use it to cut Lin Xiao, which he felt was somewhat immoral.

Shen Qingzhu frowned, staring disapprovingly at the long stick in Lin Xiao's hand: "Hey, Instructor Lin, are you planning to fight us with this stick? Aren't you underestimating us?"

[Ding, System Task: Please defeat six people with a wooden stick and make Shen Qingzhu acknowledge you as his elder brother. Task Reward: "Qi Min Myriad Manifestations Divine Power"]

[The "Qi Min Myriad Phenomena Divine Power": It can condense air into substance, transforming it into various forms such as swords, spears, halberds, and shields. With increased strength, upon reaching mastery, one can even control the divine power of others. Note: Divine power is also a type of Qi.]

A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiao's eyes; this was precisely the reward tailor-made for Shen Qingzhu.

Shen Qingzhu's fighting style is too monotonous, and he often trades injuries for injuries. This reward can make up for his shortcomings.

After mastering the art, one can even control the enemy's divine power to launch a counterattack. With such an ability, in battle, few would be able to react in time to catch the enemy off guard.

At this moment, the new recruits watching from a distance also began to voice their doubts.

"Isn't Instructor Lin underestimating us too much?"

"Although Instructor Lin is very strong, is he really that confident that he can beat us with a wooden stick?"

Yuan Gang also had some doubts. He walked to Lin Xiao's side and whispered, "Instructor Lin, isn't using wooden sticks too risky? If you lose, these new recruits will probably cause a huge uproar."

Lin Xiao patted him on the shoulder and said confidently, "Instructor Yuan, don't worry, I never fight a battle I'm not sure I can win."

Yuan Gang still harbored concerns, but since Lin Xiao had said so, he had no choice but to believe him.

He walked up to Shen Qingzhu and said calmly, "Shen Qingzhu, how about we make a bet?"

Shen Qingzhu raised an eyebrow: "What are we betting on? How are we betting?"

Lin Xiao brandished the wooden stick in his hand: "Let's bet on whether I can beat all six of you with this stick. If I win, you'll acknowledge me as your big brother."

Shen Qingzhu immediately shook her head and refused: "No, I can't acknowledge someone else as my elder brother. You can change your terms."

Lin Xiao yawned: "With this condition, it seems you, Shen Qingzhu, are nothing special. Six against one, and I'm even using wooden sticks, and you don't even dare to agree to this? It seems you don't have much confidence."

Lin Xiao knew Shen Qingzhu's personality well; he was very proud and arrogant, and it would be almost impossible to get him to agree without provoking him.

Sure enough, a conflicted look appeared on Shen Qingzhu's face. After thinking for a moment, she picked up a knife from the weapon rack and pointed it at Lin Xiao: "Fine! Let's bet! I don't believe you can win!"

Lin Xiao smiled. With Shen Qingzhu agreeing to the bet, his mission was already more than half accomplished.

Shen Qingzhu asked again, "What if you lose?"

"I can't lose. If I do lose, our instructors will no longer interfere with your schedule during this year of basic training."

Shen Qingzhu stroked his chin. If that were the case, he wouldn't be at a loss. Most importantly, he really didn't believe they would lose.

Baili Pangpang raised his hand and asked, "Instructor Lin, can I use all my forbidden items? If not, I'm just an ordinary person."

Lin Xiao readily agreed, "Of course, but only for this match; it won't apply to training afterwards."

Molly asked, somewhat puzzled, "Instructor Lin, didn't you say last night that you wanted me to witness your swordsmanship? How can I witness it if you don't use a sword?"

Lin Xiao smiled mysteriously and said slowly, "Although I do not have a knife in my hand at the moment, I have the ability to snatch it from your tightly clenched hands."

If you cannot protect your weapons, it is tantamount to handing them over to me, and I will use the swords you gave me against your own teammates.

After speaking, the group unconsciously gripped their weapons tightly, as if afraid that Lin Xiao would really take them away.

Only Baili Pangpang was struck dumb, staring at the two in disbelief, clearly misunderstanding their relationship.

"last night?!!!"

Lin Xiao explained helplessly, "I went to have hot pot with Wan'er last night and found out they were in the same dorm."

Baili Pangpang breathed a sigh of relief, leaned closer to Lin Xiao and Lin Wan'er, took out two boxes of Rolex watches from his personal space and stuffed them into their hands: "Instructor Lin, Lin Wan'er, these are some local specialties from my family, given to you as a gift. Please put in a good word for me."

Lin Xiao's lips twitched, he rolled his eyes, and pushed the gift back: "Don't worry, I have no feelings for Molly. Sincerity begets sincerity, I believe you."

He patted Baili Pangpang on the shoulder and stood in the middle of the group.

"Are you all ready? If you're ready, let's begin!"

"Wait, Instructor Lin, can I really use the knife?"

Cao Yuan hurriedly raised his hand, knowing he would lose control if he touched the knife. Although he had found Lin Qiye, he didn't want to cause him any trouble.

Lin Xiao looked at him seriously: "Use it as you like. With me and Qi Ye here, we won't let you hurt anyone."

Cao Yuan looked at Lin Qiye, who helplessly shrugged and said, "Why are you looking at me? Just do what Instructor Lin says."

Cao Yuan nodded seriously and reached out to pick up a knife from the knife rack.

Instantly, eerie black energy spread out, and he swiftly transformed into the form of the Black King.

The battle was about to break out, and Cao Yuan swung his sword at Lin Xiao.

Everyone went all out, because they all knew that Lin Xiao's strength was extraordinary.
