It Is Not Easy To Be A Man After Travelling To The Future 526 Defeated!

Inside the arena, although w.a.n.g Ke wanted to take advantage of Qi Long's lack of energy to defeat him, the latter was used when he was being beaten up by Ling Lan. He was always whipped until he was at the brink of collapse. The type of attacks that w.a.n.g Ke had come at him with didn't pressure him too much. In addition to Qi Long's fighting experience, he was also more experienced in other ways as well; he had become adjusted to his opponent's attacks before long.

However, w.a.n.g Ke was still one of Doha Central Scout Academy's top cadets. His mentality was amazingly in check. Even though he had held the upper hand the entire time and was only a step away from defeating Qi Long, he was still able to remain calm and collected, holding down his impatience in order to achieve victory, and this made those who were in the observation room all nod in approval. They all believed that this person was a talent that could be used and was a candidate for nurturing to become a captain in Lingtian.

"What do you guys think of this w.a.n.g Ke's performance?" Ling Lan suddenly asked those around her.

Luo Lang was the first to respond. "Not bad. His fighting style is calm, and neither impulsive nor impatient. He thinks before he acts."

Luo Lang's words made the others all nodded in agreement. Xie Yi added, "Although Qi Long's condition isn't very good, the level of his physical skills is still higher than w.a.n.g Ke's by at least one level. w.a.n.g Ke isn't afraid. His mentality is very good."

Hearing Luo Lang and Xie Yi's answers, Ling Lan gave Han Jijyun a look that said she didn't want to express her own opinions.

Han Jijyun felt the glare coming from his boss and knew he needed to answer; thus, he answered seriously, "My level of physical skills is weaker than everyone. The things that I can see through, everyone else will definitely be able to see through. I just think that if w.a.n.g Ke really wants to win, this type of slightly defensive way of fighting may have not be very effective."

His words made Luo Lang and Xie Yi's show a hint of a smile on their lips. Although they approved of w.a.n.g Ke's performance, they still didn't believe that w.a.n.g Ke could defeat Qi Long. Han Jijyun words were actually what they wanted to say as well.

At that moment, Han Jijyun had set his eyes up on the screen and looked at the two fighting in the arena. He continued, "Qi Long isn't someone that would lose in a drawn-out fight." Trust gleamed in his eyes; he believed that his comrade would not be defeated that easily.

Lin Zhong-qing also agreed and said, "I'm in agreement with Jijyun's a.n.a.lysis. Qi Long's physical const.i.tution is the most monstrous out of what I've seen before. Normally you would think that he would be done in the next second, but as long as the pressure doesn't go past his limit, no matter how you attack him, he won't be defeated." Lin Zhong-qing looked at Ling Lan with respect and continued, "Only Boss' terrifying attack power can instantly smash through the limit that Qi Long can take. I still haven't met a second person that can actually defeat him in terms of physical skills. At most, it will be both sides taking lots of damage like during the freshman arena fight they had when they joined the academy. Qi Long's ability to take pressure is seriously too strong and monstrous."

The answers given by the four of them caused Ling Lan to show a hint of approval in her eyes. She was very happy that everyone had managed to see through these facts. Being calm and collected wasn't a bad thing, but it depended on the situation. There was no problem in w.a.n.g Ke fighting in a calm and collected way, but it was that he had missed a crucial point; Qi Long was someone that, if not given enough pressure, would not lose in a dragged-out fight. It was simply impossible. When going against Qi Long, the opponent had to use powerful, continuous attacks to exhaust his energy, rendering him unable to recover, and only then could they be able to defeat him.

When w.a.n.g Ke had chosen to defend and attack in a calm and controlled manner, he had actually already lost the chance to defeat Qi Long.

"So that means you guys don't think w.a.n.g Ke is any good?" Ling Lan's lips perked up a bit.

This question made Luo Lang and the others shout in unison, "Of course!" It wasn't possible that this w.a.n.g Ke alone was enough to defeat Qi Long.

As expected, after their shouts, there was a turn of the tide in the arena. Qi Long, who was originally at a disadvantage, had made his move.

"Qi Long made a move," Han Jijyun shouted excitedly. It should be known that out of everyone else, Han Jijyun cared for Qi Long the most. Even though he had believed Qi Long would win, he still couldn't help but worry. Seeing that Qi Long had finally counterattacked, he jumped up happily.

After becoming excited, he saw Luo Lang and the others look at him in surprise. He felt that he went a bit out of line and immediately controlled his expression. He sat down with a serious face and gave Luo Lang and the others an explanation, "We have to let the freshmen know that even with our energy exhausted, a commander of Lingtian isn't someone so easily defeated."

"Ohhh!" The three of them responded with a drawn out and odd sound, making Han Jijyun blush. He glanced at Ling Lan in dismay. It was all because of Boss. He was the one who had drained them of their energy. There was originally supposed to be no issues during the evaluations, yet Boss had managed to make it full of worry and fear. Even going against someone as weak as w.a.n.g Ke had made him lose his cool.

Ling Lan sawHan Jijyun's slight expression of resentment and her lips perked up a bit. Ever since the fifth-year seniors, who were at the advanced level for physical skills, had left the school, other than her, Qi Long had become the one with the highest level in physical skills in the entire military academy. Although he was pressured by her, Qi Long was still eager in training. However, compared to last year, he was clearly slowing down. This was the reason why Ling Lan had been ruthless and exhausted their energy before the evaluations. If this could push Qi Long to the edge of death, then that would be for the best. But if it didn't work, then it would make the rest remember the hards.h.i.+ps they went through after losing all their energy. This would make them understand that levels were not absolute. If there were external factors, those who were weaker could also defeat them.

It was just as Han Jijyun had said; Qi Long had made a move. Having endured for many minutes, he finally used his awakened talent, Animal Instinct, and discovered a fatal weakness in w.a.n.g Ke's attacks.

Qi Long was very confident in his intuition. He didn't even stop to think and used the small amount of Qi-Jin that he managed to acc.u.mulate in that amount of time; he ruthlessly tossed out a punch towards the direction he wanted to hit.

It had seemed as though w.a.n.g Ke didn't have a weak point, but right as Qi Long's punch was reaching him, his originally heavily guarded chest became unprotected. This was because his left hand that was protecting his chest had moved downwards due to his next attack.

A loud "Boom!" followed.

Qi Long's fist accurately struck w.a.n.g Ke's chest. Although the power of his punch wasn't very great, the resultant shockwave cut off w.a.n.g Ke's blood flow from his heart; his chest suddenly felt clogged and the Qi-Jin that was originally flowing through his body was cut off—w.a.n.g Ke was uncontrollably sent flying backwards.

Before he could have a chance to control his body in mid-air, Qi Long flew towards him. Another strong punch struck w.a.n.g Ke's shoulder and instantly sent him flying out of the arena.

w.a.n.g Ke did a somersault in mid-air and landed firmly on the ground. Qi Long had controlled his power very well and had only sent w.a.n.g Ke flying without wounding him, which was why the latter was able to neutralize that force in mid-air and land with no injuries. Qi Long showing mercy made w.a.n.g Ke feel embarra.s.sed since he had used all his strength and didn't hold back in the arena.

w.a.n.g Ke looked towards the arena above him, his expression showing a hint of admiration. He bowed from below the arena and said gratefully, "I lost. Thank you for your time, Senior Qi Long."

As expected of the person who was valedictorian for two years in a row; even if Qi Long's condition was at its worst, he wasn't someone he could defeat. w.a.n.g Ke thought to himself, "If Commander Qi Long's physical condition was at its best, how many hits could I had taken from him?" At that moment, w.a.n.g Ke truly hoped that he could join the Lingtian Mecha Clan. If he could do so, then in the future, he would have a chance to fight Commander Qi Long once again.

Qi Long stood on the arena and nodded towards w.a.n.g Ke. As the examiner of this match, he was very satisfied with w.a.n.g Ke's performance. He believed that w.a.n.g Ke didn't lose any dignity for the Doha Central Scout Academy. This valedictorian behaved just as expected.

Qi Long wanted to drag his exhausted footsteps off the arena. At that moment, if someone were to look closely at Qi Long, they would be able to see that his clothes were soaked in sweat. Although he had defeated w.a.n.g Ke, Qi Long himself had made a Herculean effort. He felt that his body had become tired to its limit; his hands and feet were feeling numb and slow. At that moment, even if a three-year-old was to come by, that three-year-old would be able to push him down.

The freshmen below the arena all looked at each other. They all knew that this was the best time to defeat Captain Qi Long and were all thinking of doing so. However, everyone was also worried. If they went up, would they give the examiners a bad impression if they used any means necessary to finish their objective? It was, after all. not a compet.i.tion and heroes weren't determined by victory or defeat. Whether they could join the mecha clan depended on the examiner's acknowledgment.

While they were hesitating, a cold voice suddenly rang through the entire training dojo. "Anyone who defeats Qi Long will not only be allowed to join the Lingtian Mecha Clan, but also receive other rewards. The battle team that the winner belongs to will instantly join a battle team from one of Lingtian's frontline battle teams."

These words made the hesitating freshmen suddenly gain resolve. The freshmen knew that the cold voice must have been the voice of Ling Lan, the first commander of Lingtian. Only Ling Lan could make a promise of still being acknowledged after defeating the second commander. Since the Lingtian Mecha Clan's highest order of command had given this order, what did they have to worry about?

Those who managed to get admitted to the First Men's Military Academy were all actually people with ambitions; they all wanted to climb higher up the ladder. Regardless of whether they had a battle team or not, they all hoped that their starting point, as well as their future progress, could be better than the others.

After the people in the observation room saw that Ling Lan had pushed down the communication b.u.t.ton to the outside and mercilessly made that announcement, they all involuntarily pitied Qi Long. Qi Long was really sad since he had such a cold, heartless Boss who liked to play around with his subordinates.

Of course, there were a few that envied Qi Long, such as Gao Jinyun. Knowing Boss Ling Lan, he knew that this was definitely a way Ling Lan was using to train Commander Qi Long. Gao Jinyun felt a little bit of regret. Although he tried his best to perform and had made Boss remember him, that was all. If someone wanted to receive pointers from Boss himself, only those who had been beside him from the very beginning could have that chance…

Gao Jinyun felt a bit crestfallen but quickly braced himself. While he had joined later than those old members, it wasn't too late. He was confident that as long as he followed Boss, he would definitely, definitely have a chance… Gao Jinyun thought back to that matter which Lin Zhong-qing had unintentionally disclosed to him and he clenched his fists hard. He told himself to continue to work hard and absolutely enter the 23rd Division in his fifth year! That was his only chance to follow after Boss Lan.

Ling Lan's words had made Qi Long freeze in place, and then he looked towards the observation room with resentment. "Boss, do you really like seeing me get defeated that much?"
