What the heck?!
Lin Xuan merely lifted his foot slightly, and Li Gang flew away?
The onlookers, the fierce attackers, all looked at Lin Xuan as if he were a monster.
Could Lin Xuan also be a martial arts expert?
That shouldn't be the case; his small frame doesn't look like that of a muscular man.
Is this the reserve team? With those skills, I'd believe it if you told me you were a top-tier soldier!
They all had a premonition that Li Gang had bitten off more than he could chew.
With a loud thud, Li Gang fell heavily to the ground.
Stirring up countless clouds of dust
"Cough cough," Li Gang coughed as he awkwardly got up, bursting into a rage.
Turning to look at the other members of the assault team
"You all saw it, right? Lin Xuan started the trouble first, and I'm going to teach him a lesson now."
Li Gang is shameless. He threw the first punch, but now he's the victim.
"Yes, I saw it. It was Lin Xuan who started the trouble!"
"That's right, Li Gang was simply acting in self-defense."
"Guards, quick, arrest Lin Xuan!"
Li Gang was very proud and walked back to Lin Xuan with his head held high.
"Let me tell you, the reserve team is trash, and they'll never be worthy of being compared to my assault team."
"Even if you win the national destiny competition and obtain the treasure map, what good will it do you if you are rewarded by Heaven?"
"Isn't it still in the reserve group?"
"The division into the reserve group and the attacking group was decided the moment they were separated."
"There is an insurmountable chasm between us!"
It was a crisp slap.
"Can you stop barking like a dog?"
Chapter 22 A High-Stakes Gamble with the Captain of [Sharp Blade]
"He, he actually dared to hit Li Gang! Does he have a death wish?!"
"Has Lin Xuan gone mad? What gives him the right to attack our assault team?"
"I need to stand back; this guy's crazy, I don't want him to hit me."
A flicker of fear crossed the guard's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Do you want to die?!" Li Gang was completely enraged and was about to throw another punch.
"Li Gang, step back."
A somber voice rang out, but it was very effective.
The fist stopped in mid-air and slowly lowered.
"Boss?" Li Gang turned around, his voice filled with panic.
"Step back, don't embarrass yourself." The voice was low but carried an unquestionable authority.
“I,” Li Gang looked at Ye Xuan again, his eyes filled with ruthlessness, but he was also helpless, and slowly retreated.
“What’s the point of talking to him all this time?” Zhang Datong’s eyes were gloomy. “He can’t even get into our assault team, does he deserve to talk to us face to face?”
"That's true, it really takes Captain Zhang to get straight to the point."
"Hilarious! The reserve group's trash doesn't even deserve to be looked at by our assault group."
"If his ID card gets him into our Assault Team, I'll do a handstand and poop!"
Lin Xuan ignored them and turned to look at the guards.
"I need to swipe my ID card."
The guard, who had initially looked down on them, suddenly became normal. "Try it if you want. If it doesn't work, go report to the instructor."
Lin Xuan took out his identity token and placed it in the card slot.
All eyes turned this way, some with mockery, some with ridicule, and some with disdain.
A mechanical sound rang out
"Identity verification successful. Honorable contestant Lin Xuan, please proceed."
A simple sentence
Yet it reached everyone's ears clearly.
Why is it "the esteemed contestant Lin Xuan"?
It's important to know that even if a player in the "Fierce Attack Group" passes the identity card test, it only means that player xxx has passed the test.
Even Zhang Datong, the captain of the [Sharp Blade] squad, was not given the title of [Honorable]!
Only the leaders within the action team are given this incredibly prestigious title!
Why is Lin Xuan, who is in the preparatory group, given the title of "honored"?
The guard's gaze towards Lin Xuan became respectful, and he even stood at attention and saluted Lin Xuan.
"Sorry, sir, I didn't recognize you just now."
"It's alright," Lin Xuan waved his hand. "Can I go in now? I need to go to the assault team's shooting range."
"Of course, I'll show you the way!"
Lin Xuan didn't say much and followed the guards toward the shooting range.
"No, it's impossible! You must have made a mistake!" Li Gang roared in disbelief and frustration.
Zhang Datong's face was also gloomy. He hadn't expected that Lin Xuan would actually have the ability to obtain the privileges of the Fierce Attack Group.
Li Xiaolong simply laughed off his own accusations against him and didn't investigate further.
Could it be that he has already gained Li Xiaolong's approval?
Zhang Datong shook his head.
If Li Xiaolong approves, then Lin Xuan can definitely be transferred to the assault team; Lin Xuan is currently still in the reserve team.
This shows that Lin Xuan is not yet considered one of Li Xiaolong's men.
His eyes were dark, and he slowly spoke, "Lin Xuan,"
Lin Xuan glanced at him but didn't look at him directly.
"Would you like to make a bet with me?"
The guards and Lin Xuan stopped in their tracks.
Lin Xuan's lips curled up. "A bet with you? What's the reason?"
"Let's bet on the forbidden zone team training match, who will come out?" Zhang Datong didn't give a reason, but directly stated the bet.
"Where's the bet?"
"I'll bet on your identity card." Zhang Datong stared intently at Lin Xuan, trying to see through Lin Xuan's thoughts.
Lin Xuan smiled. "What's your bet?"
What kind of scheme is this? Has the captain of "Sharp Blade" lost his mind?
“Me? My stake is my identity as the captain of [Sharp Blade].
"If I lose, I will voluntarily withdraw from [Blade] and be demoted back to the reserve group."
Hearing this, the onlookers were stunned.
Li Gang walked up to Zhang Datong first, his expression serious. "Stop messing around, brother. You're the core of our [Sharp Blade], our backbone! Any of us can leave, but you can't!"
"You're the captain of [Sharp Blade]! Why are you wasting your time exchanging blows with trash from the reserve group? It's not worth it."
Others were even more excited and discussed it.
"Isn't Zhang Datong playing a bit too big? The benefits for [Sharp Blade] are different from those for ordinary members of our Assault Group. Why would he be willing to give up that status to join the Reserve Group?"
"Tsk tsk tsk, you can't stand firm if you're not ruthless. I'm impressed. No wonder he can be the captain."
"Lin Xuan chickened out. He doesn't dare to accept it now. His identity token is Lin Xuan's lifeline. He'll probably just die from it."
Zhang Datong didn't look at Li Gang beside him, but continued to stare intently at Lin Xuan.
Are you satisfied with this bet?
Lin Xuan's heart sank.
Zhang Datong dares to gamble so big?
Could it be that he is absolutely certain?
Lin Xuan wouldn't do anything meaningless, much less make a decision without a 100% chance of success.
Although the offer was tempting, I was alone, and there was no reason for me to fight the three of them head-on.
"How do we get into the same match? And how do I know you might be teaming up with others to sabotage me?"
In training matches, two teams can cooperate to play against each other.
Just like the national destiny competition, only the winners and losers are considered, and only the results are seen, not the process.
"We can skip the aggressive group practice matches and just play the national channel matchmaking."
Lin Xuan was even more surprised. Did this person hate him so much that he was determined to kill him?
"What if we can't get a turn?" Lin Xuan asked realistically.
There are many people in the national channels, so it's not guaranteed that you'll encounter them in every game.
