Chapter 996 - 994: Make It a Thousand
"The word ’fear’ doesn’t exist in my vocabulary; make it a thousand, that’ll be more thrilling." Chen Tianlong couldn’t be too arrogant, since a hundred was the military’s standard number, adding ten times should be just fine.
"Huh?"
The crowd was dumbfounded hearing those numbers. A thousand people besieging one, even if it were Fang Dali, he would be utterly crushed unless he ran away instead of fighting.
"Alright, hurry up and prepare a thousand for me to pound, but let me warn you first, if someone ends up with broken bones, I won’t care; it’s your own doing," Chen Tianlong said nonchalantly.
"Damn, you’re a bit too arrogant," the person was furious. If it weren’t for Chen Tianlong being the Grand Commander, he would’ve kicked him already; he was flaunting it perfectly.
A thousand people?
What kind of concept is that? It’s like having enough people to flood someone with one gulp of water each, yet this guy is challenging them solo, isn’t he asking for a beating?
Thinking of this, the young officer found it amusing.
"Alright then, brothers, those who think they’re formidable step forward; let’s teach this arrogant guy a lesson and make him quit, so Young Master Fang can return," shouted the young officer.
On this call, those who followed Fang Dali earlier stepped forward, including some excellent warriors, whose strength was about five stars of the Profound Dao.
Faced with such a strong lineup, ordinary people would be scared witless.
But what they didn’t know was, Chen Tianlong had long since surpassed the one who couldn’t even defeat a one-star Tunnel rank; now he’s a two-star Celestial Dao.
Forget about a thousand; even if twenty-six thousand came, they might not handle him. Though he couldn’t fight long, he could escape whenever necessary, without any danger.
Before long, a thousand were ready, and on the square, everyone dispersed, forming a huge ring around the fighting ground. Tens of thousands watched as Chen Tianlong walked to the center, letting a thousand elite soldiers encircle him.
"I suggest bringing some weapons, as I’m afraid I might hit hard, and it wouldn’t feel right if anyone gets injured," Chen Tianlong chuckled lightly.
"Bullshit, don’t listen to him, just attack together and don’t give him a chance to breathe," the young officer emphasized again. He knew solo fighting couldn’t handle Chen Tianlong, but with combined forces, it would be different.
"Yes!"
The thousand charged at Chen Tianlong like ferocious tigers.
Chen Tianlong’s mouth curled slightly in disdain, then he rapidly activated the third layer of the Nine Yang Celestial Dragon Technique, a pink Powerful Qi forming around him, unseen by the others.
Seeing the surrounding crowd within three meters, Chen Tianlong suddenly slammed his charged fist into the ground.
"Feel the power of my Martial God’s Arm!"
With a thunderous boom, Chen Tianlong’s Martial God’s Arm hit the ground, releasing a powerful shockwave compressed into his right arm, creating a massive tremor spreading outwards.
Instantly, within a ten-meter radius, the area shook like an earthquake.
The shockwave, with a violent gust, knocked everyone over, dust swirling on the square, and the few hundred closest to Chen Tianlong fell to the ground.
However, it wasn’t over yet; as they were recovering, Chen Tianlong’s silver needles shot out swiftly.
After three consecutive Soul-Stealing Three Needles, over a hundred collapsed, followed by a Flaming Frenzy Dragon Fist, confusing the blindly charging crowd.
Chen Tianlong, like an eel, moved through the crowd, landing elbow strikes, knee-strikes, spinning kicks, Dance of Lightning, Martial God Strong Kick...
After using ten of the Twelve Leg Kicks, the situation was mostly under control. Only around a hundred remained at the front.
"Come on, hurry up and make it quick!" Chen Tianlong took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He hadn’t smoked in a while, and this was the perfect moment to flaunt a bit.
Seeing Chen Tianlong calmly smoking after knocking down hundreds, everyone was stunned.
Holy crap!
This isn’t a human; a single punch generated a massive shockwave, is he even human?
Of course, the Celestial Dao experts they knew were limited to Fang Tian and Fang Kong, who hadn’t used big moves before being taken down by the Ghost-faced Man, so they hadn’t realized how strong they were.
Now, Chen Tianlong’s punch seemed like mountains crumbling and seas overturning, impressively powerful.
"Thud!"
The remaining hundred or so all knelt down, realizing this wasn’t the Grand Commander but a War God!
"Greetings, Grand Commander, I give up!" that young officer led the others in voicing their surrender.
"We give up too!" The subordinates echoed. If someone like Chen Tianlong wasn’t enough to be their leader, then no one else in North City could qualify.
With Chen Tianlong around, Ice Hall and East City were nothing but novices, not worth mentioning.
"Alright, everyone up, today’s battle was to show I definitely have the capability to lead you to a better future, nothing more," Chen Tianlong proceeded to the main topic.
"Today, I’m here to inform you that I’m here to merge Ice Hall and North City. Those willing to follow me, continue to do so. Those who aren’t, can leave, I won’t stop you," Chen Tianlong stated loudly.
"What? A merger...."
The crowd started buzzing again.
At this moment, seeing the opportunity, Bing Ruxue stepped forward, shouting, "Hello everyone, I’m the Hall Master of Ice Hall, Bing Ruxue. Today, I’m here to discuss the merger of Ice Hall and North City. I hope generals and warriors will agree to our request; our sisters in Ice Hall are eager to connect with you."
"Wow, does that mean we can pursue the Ice Hall ladies?"
"I’ve heard Ice Hall has many beauties."
"Yes, yes, if that’s the case, I’d be happy to merge, never worrying about not having a wife again."
In no time, the army was abuzz, and many got excited, delighted beyond measure. A previously tense scene turned joyous instantly.
Chen Tianlong chuckled bitterly; it turns out beauties are that powerful. These guys were stubborn moments ago, and now, after Bing Ruxue said a few words, they seemed transformed.
