"Calm down, both of you. Everyone, please take a deep breath. We are about to set off, and everyone's positions have been arranged. Captain Qian, could you please show a little leniency? Professor Zhu, could you also persuade Mr. Black?" At that moment, the young teacher from Huaxia Affiliated School, whose forehead was now glistening with sweat, stepped in front of the two.
However, it wasn't over yet. Lucas slapped him on the shoulder, causing his frail body to spin a few times before he stumbled and fell to the side.
On the other side, Qian Kai showed no intention of stopping. He merely said lightly, "This is how we Mercenaries handle things."
As he spoke, he and Lucas slowly moved closer together until they were nearly in contact, at which point they both assumed different fighting stances.
Lucas's slightly extended fist and Qian Kai's outstretched palm slowly approached each other until they made contact, at which point both began their attacks simultaneously.
A dull thud echoed as the force of their strikes sent gusts of wind swirling around, causing the nearby students to instinctively close their eyes.
The commotion drew the attention of other participating students, who watched in awe at the exaggerated exchange between the two. Each time their fists and feet collided, a heavy impact sound resonated, and the force generated kicked up dust from the ground around them.
For ordinary people, it was best not to intervene; even getting close would be extremely difficult.
The three bodyguards who had originally followed Qian Kai were now stunned to see that the Black man was holding his own against their captain. A flash of shock crossed their hearts.
Initially, they had come with the intention of watching a show. Their captain's strength ranked among the top in Red Dragon Security; he had advanced impressively during internal competitions until he finally met the champion who halted his winning streak.
They were puzzled as to why Captain Qian was leading them on such a mission; it seemed like overkill.
But the strange bodyguard that had emerged from the accompanying team was actually able to match the captain blow for blow! This was truly terrifying.
Even during the fight, Qian Kai was shocked. The black man in front of him was like a fighting dog, with a ferocious strength that even surpassed his own. However, his agility gave him some advantage, especially since his opponent preferred to use a strategy of trading blows.
If they continued to wear each other down, Qian Kai believed he would have the greater chance of winning, but that depended on whether his body could hold out until then.
Just as he contemplated this thought, Lucas suddenly accelerated his arm attack, swinging it towards Qian Kai's head.
Faced with an attack that left no time to dodge, Qian Kai raised his left arm slightly to block the left side of his head. However, when his arm made contact with Lucas's strike, his expression changed. He quickly brought his right hand into a palm position to reinforce his left arm.
This barely allowed him to withstand the unexpectedly fierce attack, causing him to slide sideways for a distance.
However, using both hands to block one attack left other areas vulnerable. Lucas seized the opportunity to grab Qian Kai's shoulder and slammed him down onto the ground.
"Captain!" Seeing their leader falter, the other three team members were alarmed and rushed forward. Just then, a nimble figure darted between them, causing all three to trip over their own loosened belts and fall to the ground.
Turning around, they found a curly-haired boy who looked only about fifteen or sixteen years old, grinning as he twirled a blade in his hand.
"Hehe, it's been a while since I've had this much fun. So, how about it? Are we qualified?" Lucas, though reckless, understood how to gauge the situation on someone else's turf. He knew that the final blow would definitely hurt but chose not to deliver any further strikes.
Qian Kai was not one to cling stubbornly to a fight either. Even though he still had fighting spirit left in him after being outmatched, he decided not to continue. They were not mortal enemies after all.
"Hmph, you won. It’s nothing special. I accept defeat without any objections. But if there’s another chance next time, I won’t let go so easily. Did you touch upon the threshold of power with that hit?" Rubbing his shoulder that had been pressed down, Qian Kai asked straightforwardly but couldn’t help but inquire further.
For someone like him who also embraced violence, he was quite eager for the next level of skill.
"There's still some distance to go; that's just another technique," Lucas replied enticingly. "Want to learn?"
"I don't want to." Upon hearing this, Qian Kai immediately shut down the conversation. Although he was somewhat curious, it was clear that the other party had their own plans, and it was better to avoid trouble; what worked for others might not work for him.
Lucas, hearing such a decisive refusal, felt a bit awkward. He had initially thought that joining their Mercenary group would allow him to learn something, but unfortunately, the other person was completely uninterested.
"Tch, why is it that when Boss Yi recruits people, he succeeds, but I can't?" After grumbling for a while, he signaled for Fein to come over.
As soon as the battle between the two concluded, the surrounding audience seemed momentarily stunned before starting to whisper among themselves. Some, like Huang Wei, were clapping and cheering enthusiastically, looking as if they were on a high.
Yang Xiaoyou observed the entire scene and felt quite satisfied. Under the targeted training he had arranged, both fighters had shown remarkable improvement.
During Lucas's fight, he had used a specially designed technique that allowed him to exert force in a way that gave him a certain chance of achieving a Limit Release during combat. Although there was still a significant gap compared to his own abilities that could be activated at any time, it was much better than an ordinary person who could only trigger such potential in moments of stress.
In battles of equal rank, a sudden burst of power could turn the tide.
As for Fein, perhaps due to age-related issues, his physical strength aspects appeared somewhat lacking. However, his agility and technique were already quite solid. The three members of Red Dragon Security he had tripped were physically superior even compared to regular soldiers.
Qian Kai seemed to be someone who valued promises greatly. Although he did not hide his disdain for Lucas and his companions, he tacitly accepted their presence.
At present, it seemed that perhaps due to his military background, Qian Kai possessed an extremely strong sense of National Honor.
For Lucas, who had bested him this time, winning or losing didn't weigh heavily on his mind; he simply acknowledged multiple times that there were countless individuals stronger than him in the Chinese Empire.
Hearing such remarks from the other side made Yang Xiaoyou find this fellow quite interesting.
Meanwhile, after boarding the plane, Yang Xiaoyou encountered an unexpected scene. Ou Chao, whose face was marked with acne and who wore glasses and appeared somewhat timid, seemed to have made up his mind. He approached Lucas and suddenly knelt before him, speaking in a muffled voice:
"Please teach me combat skills; I want to avenge my father."
Although he seemed a bit sullen and dry due to his lack of conversation, he remained kneeling there, as if he had no intention of getting up.
Yang Xiaoyou, who had initially felt indifferent, narrowed his eyes slightly upon hearing the other person's words, a flicker of killing intent flashing through his heart.
Indeed, perhaps Qi Menglu's safety had something to do with him, but if he truly intended to make such a decision and investigated further, he would surely discover that the one who killed his father was not the Terrorist Organization.
If he possessed such determination and was a bit more resolute mentally, it would indeed be troublesome. Sun Jun's previous example was right there; Wang Cheng's side had been rendered useless by this fellow, showing no potential to become anything significant or otherwise, so he could be temporarily set aside.
However, that sullen fellow seemed to have made up his mind. If that were the case...
But then Lucas unexpectedly asked a question, and after hearing Ou Chao's answer, Yang Xiaoyou felt a hint of strangeness.
The target of that fellow's revenge turned out to be the Common Unity Party, which struck Yang Xiaoyou as quite peculiar. The other party was currently in an unusually serious and earnest state, and there was no need for him to lie to Lucas, who was unaware of the power dynamics, especially in front of so many people while stirring up trouble.
“Tsk tsk, is it because you blame the Common Unity Party for taking your father away? Hmm, having such a father yet seemingly receiving no guidance from him—there seems to be quite a story here. Interesting,” Yang Xiaoyou thought as a strange glint flashed in his eyes.
Regardless of the circumstances, Ou Chao's father's actions ensured that the Common Unity Party would have considerable restraint towards him. Even if he did something now in front of others, whether due to those nostalgic fellows within the Common Unity Party or because of the reason behind his father's death, they would likely suppress any impulse to act against him.
