Ace of the Dragon Division - Chapter 218
Chapter 218: You’re A Bastard
After Xu Cheng left, the remaining people were all dumbfounded. After all, he had claimed so gentleman-like that he wouldn’t hit women, making Wang Ying angry but also touched. However, in the next moment, he used her as a shield to block bullets for him. The soldiers of the 8th MR were infuriated by his thick skin.
Wang Ying was a goddess in their eyes. In the military region that was full of men, they had never seen such a heroic woman before, and she was even a beauty. Like a flower blooming in the green bushes, she was doted on by everyone. But just now, that bastard used their precious goddess as a shield to block bullets for him?
He was supposed to shield her and protect her, right? He was a man and should block bullets for her. However, Xu Cheng did the opposite and even dropped their goddess onto the grass carelessly before he left.
He had hurt their goddess’s feelings heartlessly right under their noses.
Seeing Wang Ying sitting there and weeping, her teammates were enraged.
If Xu Cheng knew their thoughts, he would’ve retorted, “She asked me not to belittle her and treat her like a woman; so, I had to treat her like a man.”
Seeing this sight, Instructor Yan shook his head. “I know why he’s still single now.”
“Damn it! Kill him!” The soldiers of the 8th MR roared and raced after Xu Cheng.
Yan Wei was still on his haunches vomiting; Wu Hao lay on the ground, still trying to regain his strength even though he wasn’t eliminated yet. Their eight teammates raced away driven by rage, leaving them on the ground to regain their breaths.
Three minutes later, a guy walked out from the bushes, startling Wu Hao and Yan Wei.
This guy was no other but Xu Cheng.
He had drawn away the others and came back from another direction.
“In this state, you two will be soon eliminated; I better take the points rather than give them to others.” With a smirk, Xu Cheng pulled out his dagger, squatted down beside Yan Wei, and slashed at his neck.
Yan Wei, who had been vomiting, now almost spewed out blood; how can this kind of b8stard exist in this world? He tricked them again!
“Xu Cheng, you can’t be so despicable.” Looking at him, Wu Hao moved backward and said with trembling lips, “Can’t you be less scheming and show more sincerity?”
“Shut up.” Xu Cheng said with a grin, “I gave you guys so many opportunities to join hands with me, but you insisted on fighting me. I planned to leave but considering you and Yan Wei have got some serious wounds and might have broken some bones, you’ll have to go to the hospital immediately. I think it would be better for you to get eliminated now and go to the hospital as soon as possible.”
Wu Hao didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. “Then I guess I still have to hank you?”
“You’re welcome.” When Xu Cheng reached over to slash his neck with his dagger, Wu Hao moved his head back and said, “Are you really going to eliminate me?”
Xu Cheng nodded.
Wu Hao said, “I admit defeat. But I have a request for you. If you agree, I’ll let you eliminate me.”
Xu Cheng nodded. “Fine. Go ahead.”
Wu Hao said, “I’ll give you a punch, but you can’t fight back. Only one punch. I might have a bone broken or just bruises, but they are not as painful as the frustration I’ve felt. Can I just give you a punch? You can refuse, but you won’t get away from it after treating Ying that way. If you agree, I’ll punch you just to show it to Ying.”
After a moment of consideration, Xu Cheng said, “No problem.”
Then he stood up, and so did Wu Hao. Wu Hao stretched his fists and legs and found he could still swing a punch.
At this moment, Wang Ying’s voice floated to them. “Captain Wu Hao, hit him! Hard!”
Wu Hao nodded. “Ying, don’t worry; I’ll hit him for you and avenge you.”
When he clenched his fist, Xu Cheng asked, “Are you sure you want to do it?”
Wu Hao raised his eyebrows. “That’s a question I want to ask you. Do you want to take a punch from me? To be honest, I once sent a rookie to the hospital for one month with one punch. Think about it.”
Xu Cheng said, “I’ll be fine so long as you’re okay with it.”
Then he moved a step back and puffed out his chest, saying, “Come on!”
In the spectator room, Commander Xie and Instructor Yan looked at Commander Zhou and said resentfully, “Your soldiers are shameless. They are violating the rules. What if he injures Xu Cheng?”
Commander Zhou said in a huff, “Your Xu Cheng is truly shameless to return like this, and you are saying that my soldiers are shameless? Wu Hao isn’t eliminated yet and thus he isn’t breaking the rules. Besides, Xu Cheng agreed to do it. You should just shut up.”
The two commanders snorted and turned to their respective screens, ignoring each other.
Wu Yao yelled, “I’ve waited for this moment for a long time. Have a taste of my fist!”
He strode over and swung his fist in a big arc, creating a whistling sound. When his fist slammed onto Xu Cheng’s chest, it let out a loud “Bam” sound.
On the screen, time seemed to have stopped. Xu Cheng remained standing and Wu Hao retained his posture of punching. With his fist still on Xu Cheng’s chest, neither of them moved.
Commander Zhou thought Xu Cheng would retreat two steps and fall with a wound, but in the next second, he was astonished to see that Wu Hao withdrew his hand shakily and supported the slumped arm with the other hand; then, he dropped to his knees with a hysterical scream…
Seeing the man was weeping, Xu Cheng squatted down with a sigh and touched his head, saying, “I asked you if you wanted to do it. Stop sulking.”
Wu Hao roared with tears on his face, “Don’t touch me. Stay away from me. I hate you. You planned this too!”
Without giving Xu Cheng the chance to slash his neck, Wu Hao picked up Xu Cheng’s dagger from the ground and made a slashing move at his own neck, looking like a virtuous woman who would rather die than let the scoundrel Xu Cheng take advantage of his booty.
Xu Cheng said, “I was going to let you hit me. But when I saw the spasms on your face and neck as you swung the punch, I was afraid of your great strength, so I activated my Golden Bell Technique.” (TL Note: It’s an ancient martial art technique that makes your body as tough as one of those giant golden bells at temples)
“Fack off.” Wu Hao cried harder.
Xu Cheng stood up and walked to stand beside Wang Ying. Thinking he came to apologize, she snorted resentfully and said through her clenched teeth, “I don’t want to hear your apology.”
Without a word, Xu Cheng squatted down beside her and took away her rations, sniper rifle, and ammunition before leaving, making the prideful Wang Ying almost spew out blood. Weeping in fury, she screamed at Xu Cheng’s back, “Xu Cheng, you’re a b-stard!”
