93: Chapter 93 Jiang Ling brutally beats up the veteran
Jiang Ling watched as these veterans approached with ill intent, his face remaining expressionless.
Among these veterans, two had reached the Third Rank, while the others were at the Second Rank; he didn't give them a second thought.
"New Recruit, today we're going to give you an unforgettable welcoming ceremony. Watch my fist!"
One veteran, unable to restrain himself any longer, was the first to throw a punch at Jiang Ling.
Seeing this, Jiang Ling neither dodged nor avoided it, meeting the punch with one of his own.
Bang!
With a dull thud, the veteran was sent flying backward.
"What?"
Witnessing this scene, everyone couldn't help but be taken aback.
This was quite unexpected for them. It seemed this New Recruit actually had some skill!
The officer narrowed his eyes. According to the records, this New Recruit had only just started his freshman year at Magic Capital University before transferring to the military for some undisclosed reasons.
Logically speaking, he shouldn't be this strong!
It seemed this New Recruit was hiding some secrets!
For a New Recruit like this, it was even more necessary to give him a profound lesson. Only then could he learn to restrain his sharpness and understand the spirit of teamwork within the military.
Thus, the officer gave a meaningful look to one of the Third Rank veterans.
Seeing the signal, the veteran nodded and cracked his knuckles, making a series of popping sounds.
"Not bad!"
"As expected of a student from Magic Capital University!"
"In that case, we don't need to hold back. Let's give this New Recruit a proper welcome!"
As the Third Rank veteran spoke, his body suddenly lunged in front of Jiang Ling, throwing a punch that carried a fierce wind.
A powerful sonic boom echoed through the air!
Seeing this, Jiang Ling still didn't dodge, meeting it with a punch of his own.
Bang!
The collision of their immense power generated a shockwave, causing the dust and sand on the ground to scatter violently.
Jiang Ling stood his ground, motionless, while the veteran staggered back seven or eight steps.
"This..."
Everyone's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
That veteran was at the Third Rank!
Jiang Ling was only at the Second Rank; how could he possibly knock back a Third Rank veteran with a single punch?
Even if he were a strength-type Martial Artist, it shouldn't be possible!
The officer took a slight breath, his expression turning solemn.
This New Recruit the higher-ups had transferred in was anything but ordinary!
The Third Rank veteran, having been knocked back by Jiang Ling's punch, felt he had lost face. He suddenly let out a loud shout, his fists glowing with an even sharper edge as he struck at Jiang Ling.
Jiang Ling's body shifted slightly, dodging the strike. He activated the Rushing Thunder Hand and landed a palm strike on the Third Rank veteran's chest.
The Third Rank veteran was knocked back once more, this time tumbling to the ground head-over-heels.
"What are you looking at?"
"Attack together!"
Seeing the others standing there in a daze, the officer couldn't help but bark an order.
If this group of people couldn't even tame a single New Recruit, how would they continue to hold their heads high in the barracks?
"Attack!"
The others finally snapped out of their shock. With a loud shout, they rushed toward Jiang Ling together.
Facing the siege, Jiang Ling remained unfazed. He executed the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang Steps, shifting and maneuvering with ease to dodge their coordinated assault, then struck out in all directions with his Rushing Thunder Hand.
Jiang Ling's Rushing Thunder Hand had evolved to the four thousand and ninety-six hexagrams; its subtlety was unparalleled and its power was boundless.
Even without using his World-Ending Divine Thunder Supernatural Ability, he could unleash formidable offensive power.
Bang, bang, bang...
Jiang Ling's hands moved like a blur, resembling a Thousand-Hand Guanyin, with palm shadows filling every direction!
The ten veterans were hit one after another, sent flying backward one by one.
Even the two Third Rank veterans were not spared!
"This..."
"What Martial Skill is this?"
"How can it be so powerful?"
The officer was stunned!
He had never seen such a powerful Martial Skill!
"Again!"
The two Third Rank veterans felt humiliated. Gritting their teeth, they let out a roar and led the charge again.
Jiang Ling remained expressionless, executing the Rushing Thunder Hand with the momentum of a thunderbolt. He moved through the crowd with abandon, like a tiger among a flock of sheep. The veterans were once again beaten into a mess, rolling all over the ground.
"Holy crap!"
"This kid is amazing!"
"Are all Magic Capital University students this formidable?"
"Is he really only at the Second Rank?"
"A Second Rank can defeat two Third Ranks so easily?"
"This is simply unbelievable!"
...
Watching this, the soldiers felt their worldviews being overturned.
The officer's face turned incredibly grim.
The New Recruit welcoming ceremony was something every recruit entering the camp had to go through. Its purpose was to grind away their arrogance and teach them that the team comes first.
No matter how strong an individual is, they ultimately cannot stand against a team.
Under normal circumstances, this welcoming ceremony never went wrong.
But today, Jiang Ling had shattered that tradition.
Feeling overwhelmed, the officer gave another look to the two Third Rank veterans, signaling that they could use unconventional methods.
He had forbidden Jiang Ling from using a Supernatural Ability, but he hadn't forbidden these veterans from using theirs.
The two Third Rank veterans also looked quite displeased. Seeing the officer's signal, they knew what it meant, but they felt a sense of shame.
With so many of them against one New Recruit, not only were they unable to win, but they now had to use their Supernatural Abilities to prevail. It was a disgrace.
However, in this situation, if they couldn't defeat Jiang Ling, it would be even more disgraceful!
So be it, use the Supernatural Abilities!
Either way, they had to give this kid a lesson today!
Otherwise, who in the entire Special Operations Battalion would be able to keep him in check?
An insubordinate soldier was the hardest to manage!
Thus, a fierce light erupted in the eyes of the two Third Rank veterans, and their bodies began to change.
Both of them were Enhancement-type Martial Artists.
One possessed the A-rank Supernatural Ability 'Violent Bear,' while the other had the B-rank 'Beastification'!
As they activated their abilities, their bodies immediately transformed, surging from over 1.8 meters to over 2.3 meters. Simultaneously, their muscles bulged, brimming with explosive power.
"Kid, prepare to die!"
The veteran with the Violent Bear ability roared, swinging an arm as thick as a small water vat at Jiang Ling.
The power behind it was at least ten times greater than before he used his ability.
Seeing this, Jiang Ling took a deep breath. A massive phantom of the Black Tortoise emerged behind him as he threw a punch, still meeting the opponent head-on.
Bang!
With a violent explosion of sound, the Violent Bear veteran staggered back seven or eight steps again, while Jiang Ling remained as steady as Mount Tai.
"This..."
"This kid is this strong?"
Even with Old Bear Wei activating his ability, he was still knocked back?
"Did he use a Supernatural Ability as well?"
"It doesn't look like an ability; it looks more like some kind of Cultivation Technique!"
"What Cultivation Technique is this? Its power can be so immense that it boosts physical strength to a level comparable to a strength-type Supernatural Ability!"
