Chapter 2364 - 2373: The Bet

With a snap of his fingers, Qin Yu dispelled the Illusory Realm.

As the scenery in Guo Donglin’s eyes returned to normal, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around with a very confused gaze.

What just happened? Did he experience a hallucination?

Soon, Guo Donglin withdrew his gaze and turned his attention to Staff Officer Chen.

With a puzzled expression, Guo Donglin asked, "Eh? Old Chen, what happened to you? Who hit you? Was it Chief Instructor Qin? Let’s go, we’ll seek justice from Commander Zhao!"

Staff Officer Chen’s expression was priceless.

"Old Guo, what on earth happened to you just now? Why did you hit me?"

Huh?

Guo Donglin was taken aback. He had clearly just been hitting a monster. Guo Donglin’s face turned extremely ugly, thinking this Chief Instructor Qin really knew some Demon Art!

No wonder the soldiers of Nan Jian had become so silly!

So they had all been bewitched by Chief Instructor Qin’s Demon Art!

"Chief Instructor Qin! How dare you use Demon Art on me! I’m going to report you to headquarters! I’m going to make sure there’s no place for you in the War Department!"

Qin Yu’s face was the picture of calm, "Demon Art? Heh... Someone just called me mentally ill, but I think it’s more like General Guo is the one with the mental illness, right?"

"Old Guo, what’s wrong with you? Stop this nonsense, let’s go! And, you know, maybe you should go for a mental health checkup later. Just before, your expression was really ferocious, and you even called me a monster."

Staff Officer Chen also felt there was something wrong with Guo Donglin and gently suggested.

Staff Officer Chen’s words irked Guo Donglin, and he said somewhat excitedly, "Old Chen, listen to me, Chief Instructor Qin really did use Demon Art, otherwise, I wouldn’t have hit you!"

"Old Guo, whether or not you go for a checkup is up to you, but I’ll be leaving first."

Seeing Guo Donglin becoming very agitated, Staff Officer Chen grew a bit scared and quickly left first.

"If I were you, General Guo, I’d definitely go to the hospital for a thorough checkup. Losing composure in front of us is one thing, but if you lose it in front of the higher-ups, that’s serious," Qin Yu said, breaking into a grin.

Guo Donglin was about to explode with frustration; he knew that Qin Yu was doing this on purpose!

From today onwards, his reputation as a mentally ill person was bound to spread throughout the entire Luo City Military Region!

Guo Donglin dared not tangle with Qin Yu anymore and didn’t dare to continue insulting him. He could only leave Nan Jian’s base in disgrace once again.

Although Zhu Wenhui did not understand what was wrong with Guo Donglin, he knew that an opportunity for their Seventh Company had arrived!

"Chief Instructor Qin, will the words you just said count? Are you truly going to let the Nan Jian soldiers and our Seventh Company soldiers compete in a 10-kilometer loaded run?"

"Yes," Qin Yu nodded slightly.

"If we win, will our company’s equipment be returned to us?" Zhu Wenhui’s eyes shone.

Hearing this, the Nan Jian soldiers kept shaking their heads, continuously conveying messages with their eyes to Qin Yu, but unfortunately, Qin Yu acted as if he saw nothing!

Qin Yu nodded calmly, "That’s right, if your Seventh Company wins, the equipment will be returned to you."

Hearing this, the Nan Jian soldiers all lowered their heads, thinking, damn it, the Chief Instructor had indeed given them a chance, but it was an impossible mission!

The Seventh Company soldiers, however, became excited, seeing another chance to trounce Nan Jian!

And sure enough, beating up on a special forces unit felt awesome!

"Chief Instructor Qin, a promise from a man must be kept, and not even four horses can chase back the given word!"

Fearing that Qin Yu might go back on his word, Zhu Wenhui followed up with a question quickly.

"No problem!"

After receiving Qin Yu’s definitive response, Zhu Wenhui glanced at his watch and said indifferently, "The Nan Jian team members have expended a certain amount of energy, so let’s give them two hours to rest, allow my team members to train for two hours, and then we’ll compete. How about that?"

Zhu Wenhui’s proposal was very advantageous for the Nan Jian team members, and their eyes lit up, seemingly having found hope for victory.

Unfortunately, Qin Yu had no intention of letting them succeed and decisively shook his head.

"Company Commander Zhu, are you insulting our Nan Jian? Our Nan Jian team members are in great condition, there’s absolutely no need for rest!"

Qin Yu’s words elicited a burst of laughter, and the soldiers of the Seventh Company couldn’t help but shake their heads. My God, this Chief Instructor Qin was too funny, wasn’t he? How could he say such nonsense with his eyes wide open?

The Nan Jian contestants were so tired they were close to becoming dogs! And this was called being in great condition?

"Company Commander, let’s just go! Winning against this kind of Nan Jian feels utterly unfulfilling."

"Yeah, Company Commander, if Chief Instructor Qin is willing to play the fool, there’s no need for us to join him in this charade! The brothers of Nan Jian are already pitiful enough, we don’t need to bully them further."

"I truly feel sorry for the brothers of Nan Jian, having such a Chief Instructor."

...

Zhu Wenhui also kept shaking his head, beginning to doubt whether the credentials from Dragon Head were real. Could Dragon Head really be such a joker?

"Chief Instructor Qin, seeing the condition of the Nan Jian team members, even if we of the Seventh Company win, people might say our victory is undeserved. Let’s let them rest for a bit."

"There’s no need for rest at all. If you from the Seventh Company feel you can’t win against us Nan Jian, you can leave right now, but the weighted gear must be left behind." Qin Yu grinned, showing a row of pearly whites.

"Chief Instructor Qin, this is what you’re saying, not us from the Seventh Company bullying you Nan Jian!"

"Of course!"

"Great! Then let’s start the competition right away!"

Qin Yu smiled again, "Company Commander Zhu, don’t be in a hurry, I haven’t mentioned the rules of the competition yet. The competition will last a week, with one round each day, and a best-of-seven series. How about that?"

Hearing this, the Nan Jian team members finally understood Qin Yu’s intention!

So, the Chief Instructor was using the Seventh Company for training purposes!

If it was for a week!

Perhaps, they stood a chance!

After all, they had pushed past their physical limits several times today alone. What would they become in three days?

Realizing this, the confidence returned to the eyes of the Nan Jian team members!

Zhu Wenhui had great confidence in his Seventh Company soldiers and promptly nodded: "No problem. However, forgive my bluntness, we actually don’t need seven days. Four days should be enough to settle the battle, right, brothers?"

"Yes!"

The roar of the Seventh Company soldiers was deafening. They were suddenly quite fond of Nan Jian’s comical Chief Instructor! He was actually giving them the opportunity to trounce Nan Jian, and for seven days at that!

Just the thought of tormenting Nan Jian for seven days made all the Seventh Company soldiers extremely excited.

Seeing the confident light shining in his team members’ eyes, Qin Yu was very pleased and let out a roar.

"Do you still remember the first task I assigned just now?"

"We do! Within seven days, those who win against the weighted gear team members will successfully join Nan Jian as official team members! Those who don’t win against the weighted gear team members will be eliminated!"

"Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!"

The morale of the Nan Jian team members was like a rainbow, in no way inferior to the Seventh Company soldiers. This caused Zhu Wenhui to feel slightly surprised. When had the Nan Jian team members become so brimming with Vital Essence Spirit?
