I Lost~ (Second Update, Making Up for Yesterday)
Li Yao was immediately captivated...
"Isn't it normal for you to be so short-tempered first thing in the morning, old man?" he kindly advised. "Don't always be so angry, old man..."
Sudden death is possible!
Old Man Lu: "Stop spouting nonsense and quickly call Chen Xi over to the camp!"
He just got back and went to find that kid, letting that blockhead Wei Dadong bring back all the equipment and luggage. Is that even fair? Does he even respect me, his old friend? Well, Chen Xi has never called him "teacher" before.
Old Man Lu immediately became depressed!
Even more depressing things were yet to come...
Li Yao retorted, "Why don't you come over here!"
Old Man Lu: "..."
He was so angry his hair almost stood on end. Resisting the urge to smash his phone, he said menacingly, "If you don't see him by noon, I'll show you what divine justice looks like! No fuss!"
Li Yao: "..."
What's wrong?
Do you want to give my Boss Li, a buff from afar?
I, Boss Li, will not let you succeed!
He immediately went out and happened to see Chen Xi also coming out of her room. Her hair was still a little wet, obviously she had just finished practicing swordsmanship and came back to her room to take a shower.
Li Yao grabbed Chen Xi and ran, saying, "Let's hurry over to the camp!"
Chen Xi, who was being pulled along by Li Yao, was a little confused. "Boss, are you in such a hurry? You haven't even had breakfast yet..."
Li Yao: "It's too late!"
It takes at least forty minutes to get to the campsite by taxi from here, and even with the uphill journey, it would still take about an hour to scout it out.
Damn it, Old Man Lu, you're ruthless! Even the timing was so precise! When they finally arrived at the camp, Li Yao saw Old Man Lu waiting in front of the camp gate... The old man greeted Chen Xi with a smile as soon as he saw her, "You're back, Chen Xi!"
Chen Xi replied obediently, "Yes, I came back yesterday."
Old Man Lu's smile froze a little, "..."
I know, okay!
You didn't have to say it out loud! It's really hurtful that you just got back and immediately dumped the teachings of your seniors on that kid! Old Man Lu said dejectedly, "I can tell you've been promoted. I'll test you out. Come with me."
Along the way,
Chen Xi noticed that the Phoenix Legion camp seemed to be expanding. Many Engineering Corps were busily laying foundations, transporting building materials, and various large construction equipment were piled up there. She even saw many people with superpowers assisting in the construction.
Following Chen Xi's gaze, Li Yao explained, "The military spirit that was incubated back then is already undergoing the resurrection process."
Old Man Lu also spoke up, saying, "The newly built Military Camp is a temporary place for veterans. They have been through many wars, and although they don't have post-war syndrome, they have been out of touch with the times for too long. This place is to help them adapt to modern life."
Chen Xi asked, "Should we still call these veterans up to fight?"
Old Man Lu smiled and said, "Although the training program includes courses on the use of modern weapons, enlistment is not mandatory."
Chen Xi nodded.
The three of them talked as they arrived at the Military Camp Training Field.
The Phoenix Military Camp camp was originally built to accommodate a division, but the recruitment of personnel for the Phoenix Legion's Third Division Headquarters was far from complete, so these resurrected Army Soul Martyrs lived in the Third Division Headquarters's sergeant dormitory building.
They now live, eat, and train together.
Therefore, you can see a group of tall, strong, and agile soldiers curiously watching the soldiers of the Third Division Headquarters train around the Training Field.
Some instructors from the Third Division Headquarters who were not on training assignments were pulled aside by the Army Soul Martyrs to explain modern military combat methods and the use of modern weapons.
Their dedication to learning would put most students today to shame!
certainly,
Not all Army Soul Martyrs study this.
For example, the old squad leader, Lao Guotou, didn't like learning these things, even though he had become younger, more energetic, and even felt that his mind was sharper...
But he still prefers the taste of cooking!
So now he's holed up in the Main Canteen, spending all his time washing vegetables and cooking with the head chef!
Looking at the piles of pure white flour and plump white rice in the warehouse, I felt indescribably happy and satisfied!
Old Man Lu led Li Yao and Chen Xi to a small training ground with many specially made equipment, which was Training Field exclusively for people with supernatural abilities.
Li Yao glanced around and saw that there were many people training on the Training Field, but he didn't recognize many of them. Li Yao noticed that Ye Yu was also there.
Old Man Lu stopped inside, turned around, and looked at Chen Xi, saying, "You have already advanced. Let me see how much you have improved during this period of cultivation."
Chen Xi nodded.
Old Man Lu continued, "Let's see if you fight that kid surnamed Li!"
Li Yao: "???"
Chen Xi: "..."
Li Yao was displeased. "What does this have to do with me!"
That's just you trying to sow discord!
Old Man Lu said in a grand and proper manner, "I've been wanting to see what you're capable of for a long time. Now that Chen Xi has returned after his promotion, it's a win-win situation."
Li Yao gritted his teeth...
"I think you've killed two birds with one stone!" Li Yao said to Chen Xi, "Let's ignore him!"
Chen Xi: "Mmm!"
Old Man Lu had anticipated this, and calmly said, "That's fine too... I'll test your quality myself."
As he spoke, he picked up his Dragon-Snake Staff and prepared to leave the arena.
Li Yao took a step back. "It's not you standing there with me!"
Old Man Lu stopped, Li Yao scolded, "At your age, can't you take good care of yourself? It's not right for you to be jumping around all day! Chen Xi, don't make things difficult for the old man, let's have a spar!"
After saying that, he stood on the Training Field! Old Man Lu: "..."
He had never seen such a shameless person! So what if he's a coward!
And they even managed to create such a refreshing scene about respecting the elderly! Chen Xi, of course, readily obeys her boss; if Li Yao tells her to step down, she steps down. Once the two are standing still...
Li Yao was indeed starting to feel competitive, and he wanted to know what level his combat power was at—of course, judging a mage's value by combat power is very shallow and foolish.
In the Main World, there are plenty of academic mages who are solely focused on their studies! They often haven't even killed a single ferocious chicken!
But can you say they have no value? Just like the pioneers who diligently studied under the scorching sun and international blockade on the Great Gobi Desert —each of them was worth five divisions! But then again,
Which man doesn't want to be stronger?
Ancient Greece had the Olympic Games to showcase the athletic prowess of its warriors, and my country also has various martial arts competitions to display the style and skill of its athletes.
Men are born with a spirit of bravery and martial prowess! So Li Yao immediately assumed a fighting stance! He took a step forward and flicked his sleeves! The fluttering of his robes even produced a crisp, clear sound! "Come!"
Then,
He then saw Chen Xi take a step back with a beaming smile, exclaiming with an exaggerated expression, "Wow, boss, you're amazing! I lose!"
Old Man Lu: "???"
Li Yao: "..."
He looked at Old Man Lu, his eyes seeming to say:
Don't look at me!
I didn't call it!
