Chapter 297 - A True Man Does What Should Be Done and Refrains from What Should Not Be Done! (1/2)
In the quiet conference room…
African General Vortex Tiger was frowning, but his eyebrows slowly relaxed. There was a happy smile on his lips.
African lion mobile armor unit, trump force of the African Military Region mobile armor unit! Captain Clara was the first driver of the entire African Military Region mobile armor unit!
Clara was the best of the elites in the African mobile armor troops! Although his height of one hundred seventy-eight centimeters was not considered tall in the army, his strength made everyone in the African mobile armor troops admire him deeply.
The African Major General Vortex Tiger laughed happily and raised his hand to signal the martial artist that was secretly transferred here to sit down.
Clara put his hands on his knees and sat down straight, maintaining the most formal military posture.
Vortex Tiger nodded with satisfaction, although the African Military Region was the weakest military area of the entire Federation, they should not be bullied by a young guy!
Vortex Tiger opened Clara’s resume again and looked at the records; now he had a little more assurance.
Clara: A professional soldier who joined the army for fifteen years and won the runner-up of the mobile armor competition in the recruit competition. He performed many tasks with excellent results. In fifteen years, he was only defeated once by a mobile armor driver named “Boor” from East Asia. The record of defeats was unknown, and Clara had never mentioned it.
Boor? Vortex Tiger looked at the timetable. He felt relieved when he realized that it happened two years ago.
Two years ago? Vortex Tiger smiled. Recruit Qin Fen was still a high-school student during that time. How could “Boor” be Qin Fen?
“Clara, I secretly transferred you here for a special mission.” Vortex Tiger leaned on the chair and smiled, “There was a monster from East Asia in this recruit competition.”
“Monster?” Clara smiled, revealing his white teeth under his dark skin.
“Monster.” Vortex Tiger reinforced his tone, “This young man defeated a European recruit driving a Galaxy Steel Spirit with a Jungle Ranger.”
“Oh? Is that so?” Clara twisted his black eyebrows that had almost the same tone as his skin, “So the quality of the European recruits is this bad this time?”
Vortex Tiger looked at Clara’s expression and gave a wry smile. He shook his head, “Then he used a Red Lotus Phantom to defeat the entire European recruit mobile armor. Yes! You don’t need to goggle at me. He challenged the entire European recruit mobile armor team.”
The contempt in Clara’s face quickly disappeared. He saw that the Vortex Tiger still had the intention to talk, so he shut his mouth and continued to listen.
“Finally, this recruit used a single mobile armor and defeated the American mobile armor team. Yes, he competed alone against a group and won.” Vortex Tiger rubbed his forehead and showed a bitter expression, “Actually, I still can’t believe what happened, but it is the truth.”
“Is he really a recruit?” Clara found it hard to believe, the mobile armor was not a car with an automatic transmission. It was not an object that could be driven by anyone.
It was not strange to win in a one-on-one competition. But to win when competing alone against a group? Clara shook his head again, who is the young man? Does he think that he is the arrogant East Asia mobile armor “Boor”?
Vortex Tiger sighed, “I had hoped that he wasn’t actually a recruit, but he really is.”
“So the reason you transferred me here is to?”
Clara looked puzzled at the Vortex Tiger. I thought I was here to help to distinguish whether the opponent was a recruit or a veteran, but it seems that I have something else to do.
“So it’s like this.” The dark skin of the Vortex Tiger even showed a ruddy complexion, “The next opponent of the East Asia recruit is our African mobile armor.”
Clara made an “oh” sound, and asked curiously “What does he want to do? Isn’t it too arrogant to do this?”
“Yes, it is.” Vortex Tiger sighed, “But he has the skill.”
“So you mean,” Clara suddenly understood, “You want me to defeat him? But I am no longer a recruit. Even if I win, there will be no advantages for our African recruits, instead…”
“That’s why!” Vortex Tiger interrupted Clara, “My idea is that you join the African recruit mobile armor battle and fight against the East Asian recruit together. Fight him till the last minute and create an illusion of a tie. In that case…”
Clara nodded continuously. So although African recruits may not win, the final result will be far better than the European recruit and the American recruit. In the same time, the African recruit would not be suspected of using the gunmen.
“General!” Clara said with a severe countenance, “Are you sure he is that strong? Everything will be revealed if he is not that strong.”
“You can rest assured.” Vortex Tiger waved his hand, “I have discussed this matter with the generals from America, Europe, and West Asia. They also think that Qin Fen is too arrogant. If anything happens, they will support me instead of East Asia.”
Clara nodded and said, “In this case, then I know what to do.”
“The tales of the monster Qin Fen and his winning streak can finally come to an end.”
Vortex Tiger was now completely relaxed. No matter how skillful a recruit was, it was impossible to win against a veteran. An elite recruit had nothing when up against a veteran with real combat experience.
The most elite recruit was as weak as a kindergartener when fighting with the most elite veteran.
Vortex Tiger stared at Clara’s back. Even though the African mobile armor had the worst result in the Federation, Qin Fen would lose since they sent out their ace in the African mobile armor.
The Africa conference room was once again silent, and the East Asia conference room was also silent.
“Mr. Bai…” Qin Fen slowly looked up at Bai Sheng, “Thank you for your kindness, but I have decided not to fully join.”
“Oh?” Bai Sheng did not expect this. Doesn’t he understand how beneficial it is for him to fully join? That’s almost like stepping to the sky with a step. It’s the best way to become transcendent.
Zhao Huzi’s stared with his eyes opened at Qin Fen; he had an urge to hit Qin Fen to wake him up.
“Young man, perhaps you have not fully understood the benefits you can get after you fully join us.” Bai Sheng explained again, “You have to understand. You may be able to buy the Reborn Pill, but not the Piper edulis or Bone Changing Pill. As for pills that are exclusive, such as the medicinal herbs to keep living and help breakthroughs, unless you have great rights, you won’t be able to buy them even with a goldmine. It is not easy to reach the peak of martial arts, so you need some help. Otherwise, you will stay in a star-class for ten years.”
Zhao Huzi nodded as he listened. As a master of martial art, he was very clear about the help of medicinal herbs.
“And, if you have anything happen to you…” Bai Sheng smiled, “If a person dies, there will never be a chance to reach the peak of martial arts.”
“Mr. Bai, I understand everything you said. But…”
Qin Fen raised his chin and smiled. Bai Sheng suddenly felt that this smile had a compelling heroic spirit, it was a surging aura.
“If I accept to be protected by Sacred Martial Hall, I should be very safe.” Qin Fen shook his head. “In that case, I will have lost my courage. Do you think a martial artist with no courage has the opportunity to reach the divine beast level and become the best in martial arts?”
Bai Sheng stared at Qin Fen, stunned, his eyes were filled with astonishment. However, on his mouth was a sneer.
He wants to become a master with the title of divine beast level? Very courageous! Very ambitious! Bai Sheng was amazed by his courage, but the mocking smile on his lips grew bigger and bigger.
A martial artist with the title of divine beast level? The ignorants are fearless! It’s good for young people to have great ambitions, but he should know his own limits.
There were so many young people who wanted to reach the divine beast level in martial arts but were defeated by this tremendous pressure in this world.
Bai Sheng had met too many young people with such ambitions. However, they were not even compatible with the Four Great Constellation masters that were under the divine beast level.
Bai Sheng was suddenly reminded of his younger self when looking at Qin Fen. He was also a young man with high and vigorous spirit. He also had the target of becoming a divine beast level martial artist.
It was only when he learned more about martial arts did he realize how endless the amount of martial arts knowledge was. It was extremely difficult to become a martial artist of the divine beast level.
This was not only about putting in the effort to succeed! At the same time, there must be opportunities and high intelligence!
“Haiz…” Bai Sheng sighed and shook his head, “Young people, you have some point. If you join Sacred Martial Hall for the fear of being assassinated, then your achievements may be good, but your future is no longer unlimited.”
“I would like to choose the amateur grade in the outer hall.” Qin Fen smiled, “Is there a corresponding reward for the amateur grade? Maybe I can be the beneficiary of those special terms.”
“Special terms?” Bai Sheng sneered. Sacred Martial Hall had never given anyone special terms. Special terms acted as a tool to deceive those who planned to get something for nothing.
