Chapter 140: Brute Force Alone?

otal of 1,212 students, including our senior three class and the repeating class, took the college entrance exam. Among them, as many as 572 students achieved scores above the key line! The pass rate...One-on-one

Xia Heguang frowned slightly, looking at Huang Xiaolong and said, "Xiaolong, I know you're not happy about this, but..."

Fang Yu's strength and the cultivation level he displayed were completely inconsistent.

He was able to easily defeat Yang Jian, who was known as a martial arts genius once in fifty years in Jiangnan, and he could also kill those two masters-level assassins...

When I think back to the first time I saw Fang Yu, that sudden floating mass of dead fish.

Xia Heguang knew that Fang Yu's strength was absolutely far beyond the realm of a congenital martial artist.

Huang Xiaolong only saw the cultivation aura Fang Yu displayed, but he did not notice Fang Yu's true strength.

"Big Shuai, if he truly has the capability, why would you stop me from challenging him one-on-one If he wins against me, then he'll naturally gain the respect of everyone. If he loses to me, it'll just prove that this person isn't worthy of leading the team!" Huang Xiaolong interrupted Xia Heguang's words.

His heart was filled with jealousy, to the point that he disregarded the respect due in a conversation with his superiors, even interrupting Xia and Guang's words on several occasions.

In normal circumstances, he would be punished for this kind of behavior!

"Xiaolongge is right! Grandpa, just let Xiaolongge have a one-on-one match with Fang Yu! For you to just appoint him as the captain for this competition is not only disrespectful to Xiaolongge and the rest of the team, but also to me!" Xia Weirui stood beside them, gave Fang Yu a disapproving look, and said.

“Sister…” Xia Tinghe wanted to stop Xia Weiru from speaking, her face slightly pale.

She had witnessed Fang Yu's terrifying methods and knew how powerful he was.

If Huang Xiaolong were to challenge Fang Yu one-on-one, if he angered Fang Yu, the consequences would be disastrous!

"Ting He, what's wrong with you today Why are you willing to help Fang Yu, a stranger, instead of speaking up for us" Xia Weiyu said, her eyes wide with astonishment.

Xia Tinghe let out a soft sigh and said no more.

She knows her sister's stubborn temper like the back of her hand, so talking more now is pointless.

Xia Heguang glanced at Fang Yu and found that he was now sipping tea while looking at the birdcage hanging from a tree branch in the distance, seemingly relaxed and contented.

It's like what's happening now has nothing to do with him.

"Great General Xia, I hope you will agree to my request! Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to accept it!" Huang Xiao Long bowed to Xia Heguang and said solemnly.

Xia Heguang's face was grave as he said, "Your request depends on whether Master Fang is willing to accept it."

Then, everyone turned to look at Fang Yu.

At this moment, Fang Yu was gazing at the bird in the cage, lost in thought. Suddenly, he noticed the surrounding silence and came back to his senses. He asked, "Well Have you guys reached a conclusion"

"Master Fang, I wonder if you… would be willing to accept Xiaolong's request for a sparring session" Xia Heguang asked.

Xia Heguang had led troops before, he knew that to get those elite soldiers outside to accept a parachuted-in captain like Fang Yu, it wouldn't be enough to just talk.

Fang Yu has to show off his skills and shut them up completely.

So, Huang Xiaolong proposed a one-on-one match with Fang Yu, which was also a good opportunity for Fang Yu.

Fang Yu glanced at Huang Xiaolong, gave a faint smile, and said, "Didn't we already spar"

"Does that count as well You just ran away afterward! How can that be considered sparring!" Xia Weiyu shouted loudly from the side.

Huang Xiaolong narrowed his eyes and said, "I know you have some strength, but martial arts. It's not just about brute force. Otherwise, all those strongmen in the world would be martial arts masters."

"Brute force..." Fang Yu shook his head and said, "You don't understand martial arts deeply enough. No matter what method you use, as long as you can defeat your opponent, you are a strong one."

Huang Xiaolong sneered coldly and said, "So, do you have the guts to fight me one-on-one I can prove my point. In real combat, brute force is only an auxiliary. The most important thing is footwork and various fighting techniques."

"Alright, since you insist on a fight, then bring it on." Fang Yu stood up and stretched.

"Let's go outside the courtyard to spar. All fifty-four elite warriors are out there; they can be witnesses to our friendly competition." A gleam of joy appeared in Huang Xiaolong's eyes when he saw Fang Yu agree to his request.

He will soon prove that Fang Yu is just a somewhat reckless congenital martial artist. As a master of martial arts, he can overwhelm Fang Yu in every aspect, whether it's cultivation realm, true qi usage, or fighting skills!

To show one's prowess before fifty-four elite warriors is undoubtedly a great opportunity to establish authority!

……

Everyone had walked to the outside of the military compound.

Here stood a formation of elite soldiers, most of whom were martial artists at the tenth level or above. Several even reached the realm of half-step grandmaster.

Seeing Xia and Guang walk out, these elite soldiers all saluted together and shouted: "Greetings, General!"

"This is Fang Yu, the captain candidate chosen by Xia Dashuai. " Huang Xiaolong smiled and introduced him to the elite crowd.

At Huang Xiaolong's words, everyone turned their eyes to Fang Yu, their expressions varied.

From the aura emanating from Fang Yu, he appears to be a martial artist at the late stages of the congenital realm (7-8th stage).

This cultivation level is too low, and this person looks so young, more like a student.

How could Da Shuai possibly choose such a person to lead the team

Wouldn't it be better to just pick any one of them to lead They'd probably be more suitable than this young man.

Of course, they didn't dare to speak these words out loud; they could only keep them bottled up inside.

However, the look in their eyes and their suddenly gloomy expressions already told everything.

The military is a place where strength speaks volumes. Even if this young man were related to Xia and Guang, they wouldn't submit to him.

"Don't be too disappointed, everyone. Fang Yu is just a candidate for captain, he isn't necessarily the captain yet." Huang Xiaolong suddenly laughed at that moment.

Upon hearing this, the faces of the elite warriors relaxed somewhat.

"With Big Handsome's permission, I will spar with Fang Yu next to decide who becomes the captain." Huang Xiaolong continued.

Once he said that, the elite were excited.

Huang Xiaolong is their direct superior, and could even be said to be their instructor.

They naturally agreed to have Huang Xiaolong as their captain, leading them in this grand competition.

"Alright, take a break. You can watch our spar from the side, acting as witnesses." Huang Xiaolong stood with his hands behind his back and said.

The originally straight and tense elite immediately relaxed.

After a while, fifty-four elite members sat on the grass nearby, watching Fang Yu and Huang Xiaolong in the open space.

The sparring is about to begin.

"Hey, do you think this kid can take how many punches from a general"

"Last time I took boxing lessons from the lieutenant general, he punched me three times. My chest ached faintly for a whole week... This kid's frame is so thin, I think he can only take one punch at most."

"One punch That's too weak, isn't it How could the big boss choose such a weakling to be our captain Doesn't he think we're any good"

Elite members whispered to each other, with playful laughter occasionally breaking out.

In their eyes, Fang Yu, who only had the cultivation base of seven or eight levels at birth, was absolutely no match for Huang Xiaolong in a fight.

Xia Heguang and the two sisters stood on the other side.

"Look at that Fang Yu, he's about to spar and he still looks so lazy. Does he really think he's some kind of peerless master Little Dragon Brother will definitely beat him up until his teeth are aching later!" Xia Weiyu looked at Fang Yu with a look of displeasure in her eyes.

Seeing that Xia Tinghe didn't speak, Xia Weiyu reached out and squeezed Xia Tinghe's arm, asking, "Tinghe, you must also think highly of Little Brother Long, right"

Xia Tinghe bit her pink lip and whispered, "I think... Fangyu will win."

She's been having nightmares lately, all of them featuring Fang Yu beating the two assassins to a pulp.

"Hmph, listen to He, you've betrayed us. Now you'd rather support an outsider than Little Dragon Brother!" Xia Weiyu said with a hint of displeasure.

Xia Tinghe's beautiful eyes flashed a trace of surprise as she looked at Xia Weiyu and said, "Sister, you mean... Xiao Longge isn't an outsider You're..."

Xia Weiyu's face flushed red, she quickly shook her head and said, "Listen to He...don't talk nonsense, I...I haven't confirmed a relationship with Xiaolongge yet."

Xia Tinghe smiled softly and said nothing more.

Both sisters' conversation was within Xia and Guang's ears, but neither of them offered any comment.

His current attention is all on Fang Yu.

Although he knew Fang Yu was strong, it was all hearsay.

Today, he finally had the chance to see Fang Yu's skills firsthand.re, but gained little information.What exactly is the true Holy Grail…"Seeing the deity, do you not kneel"The sound, like a bolt from the blue, was forcefully thrust into Fang Yu and Honglian's ears.F...
