Chapter 137 (1/2)

Quarrels were incessant. Most people present flushed with agitation, and were on the verge of rolling up their sleeves to fight with each other.

Shu Sanqi couldn’t help frowning slightly. With his eyes sweeping around, Shu suddenly noticed that Young Ke was sitting straight there all along and kept silent. Shu couldn’t help asking, “Young Ke, is there any trainee who may be the first one killing a Barbarian Soldier in your Camp 39?”

Sharp like a sword and sonorous like the noise made upon collision of spears, his voice overwhelmed the brawls, and made many people fix their eyes on Young Ke.

Some people were curious, while others thought otherwise; some guys were even eager to retort bluntly, just waiting for Young Ke to tell a name.

Young Ke was in a trance, and it was obvious that she hadn’t thought Shu Sanqi would ask her about the condition in the Camp 39.

After thinking a while, Young Ke shook her head eventually.

There were many top trainees, such as Gong Ming, Shi Yu, Ning Meng, and Qi Can, in the entire Camp 39, but compared with Bai Lingshi and Zhao Yin, these guys were a little bit inferior after all.

Take Gong Ming as an example, although he had extremely amazing defensive power, he was not satisfying enough considering his frontal attack force.

And Shi Yu was good at flanking tactics, and tended to wait for a proper chance to kill the enemy in a single strike. This kind of tactics was definitely the most terrifying one, but it might be hard to kill a Barbarian Soldier at once.

Though Ning Meng and Qi Can had strong frontal attack capacity, trainees like Bai Lingshi and Zhao Yin who were born with talent properties were bound to have more advantages.

Thinking over and over again, Young Ke didn’t speak out a name finally, which made many people who were ready to retort upon her slightly disappointed. Many people couldn’t help chuckling, with the looks of having guessed Young Ke’s view.

“It is a little hard to judge which trainee could kill a Barbarian Soldier in the shortest time. Maybe we have to wait until tomorrow when the quarterly assessment begins to get a clear answer,” Shu Sanqi said in a low voice.

He was just about to end the discussion when a flaming and slender figure rushed in, and said, “Chief Shu, I think among the 600 trainees of the entire 20 camps, the first one killing a Barbarian Soldier must come from Camp 39.”

Along with the voice, Young Man appeared. With a graceful and attractive figure, as well as a sexy and pretty face, Young Man immediately attracted many people’s attention as soon as she appeared.

But hearing clearly Young’s words, many people frowned and became restless. Her words excluded all the trainees apart from those in the Camp 39, which truly despised the others.

Even Young Ke couldn’t help frowning. The moment she saw Young Man was here, a flush of coldness rose on her fair face; hearing Young Man mention Camp 39, even Young Ke knew Young Man was standing up for her, she still felt uncomfortable.

At the moment someone couldn’t help laughing, “Young Man, we all know the condition in Camp 39, and your words sound rather ridiculous.”

Others said in succession, “Right! You just tell us which trainee in Camp 39 could make it?”

There was a touch of banter and disapproval in their voice.

Shu Sanqi frowned, “Young Man, don’t make trouble.”

If it had been in the past, Shu Sanqi could have made Young Man compromise obediently just with a word, but today she was contrary to the way she usually behaved. Walking slowly to the conference table, she ran her sparkling eyes over the crowd, and chuckled, “Since you want to know, I will not conceal it. The trainee I just referred to is Lin Xun of the Camp 39.”

Lin Xun?

There was silence for a moment. Many people felt confused, and were wondering who was the guy and why they hadn’t heard of his name.

Young Ke had wondered which trainee Young Man would mention at first, and she hadn’t expected Young Man could mention Lin Xun. So Young Ke couldn’t help feeling surprised, and then a burst of anger rose in her heart, and she wondered whether Young Man was here to make trouble deliberately today.

She certainly knew Young Man was on good terms with Lin Xun, but even so, how could Young Man speak at random like this at the moment?

“Drillmaster Young Ke, who is Lin Xun?”

Somebody couldn’t help asking.

Thinking for an instant, Young Ke decided to tell the truth, “Lin Xun is my trainee in the Camp 39 indeed, but he is just on the eighth level of Martial Realm. So, to tell the truth, although he has outstanding combat capacity, I’m not sure whether he could kill a Barbarian Soldier in the shortest time.”

Ke’s words made many people’s faces turn weird. The eighth level of Martial Realm? It was not easy indeed to hold on in the Bloodthirsty Camp until now with such cultivation. However, it was not convincing to say such a boy could be the one killing a Barbarian Soldier within the shortest time.

What was more, Young Ke was the drillmaster of the Camp 39; if even she was not confident in Lin Xun, who would believe what Young Man had said?

“Young Man, are you joking with us?” some people began to laugh already.

“Well, the eighth level of Martial Realm? Young Man, have you fallen in love with the boy? I feel a little weird.”

Kicking up a fuss, other people took the chance to tease Young Man.

Seeing the situation get noisier and more chaotic, Shu Sanqi felt a fit of displeasure. But before he could open his mouth, Young Man burst out laughing in a charming way, and said, “Everybody, how about making a bet? If I win, each of you offers one thousand points, and if I lose, I’ll do the same.”

The crowd got dumbstruck. Was she really serious?

“Hha, Young Man, don’t get in a rage. There are fifty to sixty people here, so if you lose, you’ll have to offer 50,000 to 60,000 points. As far as I know, number of your points now is even less than 20,000, isn’t it?”

Some people burst out laughing.

“Only if you green-hair monster dare make a bet, I ensure I won’t owe you even one point!” Young Man’s starry eyes shined, but there was a hint of determination in her words.

“That’s enough!”

Having tolerated for a long time, Young Ke couldn’t bear any more. She stood up suddenly, and stared at Young Man coldly, “If you dare kick up a row once more, just disappear from here immediately!”
