“We’ve taken over!”
Team Zhao’s voice wasn’t loud, but it carried an undeniable command, each word like a steel nail, hammering hard into the hearts of everyone in the Thunderbolt Commando Unit.
Take over?
On what grounds?!
Lei Zhan’s face instantly turned cold.
He suppressed the suffocating pressure, stepped forward, and confronted Team Zhao directly.
“This… Team Zhao,”
Lei Zhan said, enunciating each word, deliberately emphasizing the title.
“The order we received was to assist Major Qin Qian with training, not to obey your commands.”
“We are the Thunderbolt Commando Unit, directly subordinate to the Military Region Headquarters, not your subordinates!”
His words were forceful, clearly stating their position and highlighting their backing.
We’re not rootless grunts; it won’t be easy to manipulate us!
The members of the Thunderbolt Commando Unit all puffed out their chests, hostility and anger burning in their eyes.
However, facing Lei Zhan’s defiance, a faint, almost mocking expression appeared on Team Zhao’s face.
“Assist?”
He acted as if he had heard the biggest joke.
“Are you even worthy?”
“If it weren’t for Mr. Qin’s wishes, you wouldn’t even be qualified to stand here.”
“A bunch of hothouse flowers living in peacetime, daring to talk about qualifications in front of me?”
Boom!
This sentence completely ignited the powder keg.
Arrogant!
Too arrogant!
Every member of the Thunderbolt Commando Unit was an elite, a king among soldiers, handpicked from millions of troops across the entire military!
Which one of them wasn’t proud and arrogant?
And when had they ever suffered such humiliation?!
“What the hell did you say?!”
A hot-tempered team member was about to charge forward on the spot but was held back firmly by his comrades.
“Old Yan, don’t be impulsive!”
The team member called Old Yan was Yan Gang, the team’s assault specialist, whose combat skills were second only to Lei Zhan, and whose temper was notoriously explosive.
His eyes were bloodshot, staring fixedly at Team Zhao, the veins on his neck bulging one by one.
“Let me go! I’m going to make him understand today why the flowers are so red!”
Yan Gang suddenly broke free from his comrades and strode out, directly confronting Team Zhao’s icy gaze.
“What a big mouth! I’d like to see what abilities you have to dare say we’re not qualified!”
He pointed to his own nose, roaring word by word.
“Thunderbolt Commando Unit, Yan Gang!”
“Team Zhao, please enlighten me!”
The other team members no longer tried to stop him.
Yan Gang stepping forward represented the dignity of the entire Thunderbolt Commando Unit.
Today, they had to teach this arrogant fellow a lesson he would never forget!
To make him understand that the Thunderbolt Commando Unit was not to be insulted!
Lei Zhan also fell silent, tacitly approving Yan Gang’s actions.
He wanted to see just how capable this subordinate that Major Qin Qian had found truly was.
However, to everyone’s surprise, Team Zhao didn’t even glance at Yan Gang.
He merely extended a finger, slowly, pointing it at everyone in the Thunderbolt Commando Unit.
Including Lei Zhan.
“You?”
Team Zhao shook his head scornfully.
“Too weak.”
“All of you, come at me, all at once.”
“As long as you can last one move against me, I will admit that you are qualified to stand here.”
What?!
Everyone was stunned by Team Zhao’s boundless arrogance.
One person, challenging the entire Thunderbolt Commando Unit?
Was he insane?
This was no longer arrogance; this was naked humiliation!
“Ahhh! I’ll kill you!”
Yan Gang completely erupted in rage, his reason entirely consumed by fury.
He let out a beast-like roar, and his entire body, like a cannonball, charged fiercely towards Team Zhao!
Fast!
Accurate!
Ruthless!
Yan Gang held nothing back, unleashing a full-force killing move from the start!
He wanted to use the most direct and decisive method to knock this arrogant lunatic to the ground with one move, defending the honor of the Thunderbolt Commando Unit!
He could even imagine the other party being sent flying by his punch, spitting blood and falling to the ground in a sorry state.
However, just as his fist was about to connect with Team Zhao’s face.
Team Zhao moved.
No unnecessary movements, just a slight shift of his body.
Yan Gang’s powerful punch grazed his clothes, missing its target.
So fast!
Yan Gang’s heart jolted in surprise; he didn’t have time to change his move when an indescribable, terrifying force came from his abdomen.
Bang!
A dull thud.
Yan Gang’s entire body was like being hit by a high-speed truck, his body curled into a shrimp shape, his eyes bulging, and a mouthful of stomach acid directly spewed out.
He didn’t even see how the other party made his move.
The next second, he was sent flying backward, landing heavily on the ground a dozen meters away, struggling twice before completely losing consciousness.
Instant kill!
Killed in one move!
Everyone, including Lei Zhan, was dumbfounded.
This… How was this possible?!
Before they could recover from their shock, Team Zhao’s figure had already vanished from his original spot.
He was like a black lightning bolt, directly charging into the crowd of the Thunderbolt Commando Unit.
“Watch out!”
Lei Zhan’s roar had just left his mouth when screams began to rise one after another.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
That was not a battle at all, but a one-sided massacre.
The elite members of the Thunderbolt Commando Unit were as fragile as three-year-old children in front of Team Zhao.
Their proud combat skills seemed so ridiculous in the face of absolute strength and speed.
One after another, muscular figures, like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, were easily sent flying, landed, and then passed out.
In less than ten seconds.
The entire training ground, besides Team Zhao, had only one person still standing.
No, kneeling.
Lei Zhan knelt on one knee, using the gun in his hand to support himself on the ground, preventing himself from falling.
Blood stained the corner of his mouth, his chest heaved violently, each breath pulling at his entire body, bringing excruciating pain.
He struggled to raise his head, looking at the man standing like a demon god not far away, his eyes filled with horror and confusion.
Team Zhao slowly walked up to him, looking down at him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
“Not bad.”
“Although I didn’t even use half my strength.”
“But you being able to last until now is quite rare.”
Lei Zhan gritted his teeth, enduring the intense pain throughout his body, squeezing out a few words through his clenched teeth.
“You… who… are you?”
“Mr. Qin’s subordinate,”
Team Zhao replied indifferently.
“My… team members…”
Lei Zhan asked again, his voice filled with worry.
“They won’t die.”
Team Zhao’s voice remained cold.
“They just need to lie down for a while and clear their heads.”
After speaking, he reiterated.
“From now on, this training base is under our command.”
As his voice fell, he no longer looked at Lei Zhan, turned, and strode away with steady steps.
Leaving behind a ground full of “corpses” and a Thunderbolt Commando Unit captain whose will was about to collapse.
Lei Zhan watched Team Zhao’s retreating back, trying to struggle to his feet, but felt a dizzying sensation.
Thud.
He could no longer support himself, falling to the ground, completely losing consciousness.
