God Three Group Chat: Three Kingdoms

...

Having seized the initiative, Zhao Kuang launched an attack with explosive speed and extremely tricky angles.

However, the faster the attack, the faster it is repelled.

Upon seeing Zhao Kuang being repelled, Liu Hu, Yu Yao, and the others couldn't help but shrink their pupils, looking at Ma Zhong with surprise and confusion in their eyes.

Since everyone's strength is roughly equal, how could there suddenly be such a big gap?
This shouldn't be happening, it absolutely shouldn't be happening!
Ma Zhong, who was responsible for all of this, looked at Zhao Kuang who had been defeated, and felt completely calm.

For a long time, Ma Zhong was not the commander of the Princess Guard, nor even the acting commander of the guard; he was merely one of the leaders.

Moreover, this is because everyone has been a leader, so everyone is eyeing the position of legion commander, which is quite obvious.

To secure his position, Ma Zhong naturally put in a lot of effort, not only sweating but also bleeding.

If you want to become stronger, how can you become powerful without the corresponding awareness?
Back in the Taishan County period, in addition to training with the guards during normal times, Ma Zhong also trained diligently during his spare time.

However, simply training hard does not lead to a very slow pace of progress; it is more about practice makes perfect.

However, with this level of practice, it's impossible to create a significant gap when facing others who are putting in the same effort.

Things only took a different turn after Ma Zhong's younger sister, Xiao Ling, came into contact with Madam Gan.

When military generals like Zhang Fei, Xu Chu, and Huang Zhong were teaching Huang Xu and Zhang Bao in their spare time, they would also casually teach Ma Zhong and others.

With this level of familiarity and understanding, coupled with the care he received from Liu Tong, the education Ma Zhong received among these masters was no less than that of the masters' children.

After entering Chang'an and becoming the acting legion commander, he had access to even more experts.

Xu Huang and Guan Hai, who were from the princess's faction, also became targets for Ma Zhong to test and practice his skills.

Even if you encounter a celestial being from the Five Directions, you can try to experience the dream of wealth and power.

Of course, the price of trying this dream was that I almost became addicted to it and fell into a deep sleep from which I could never wake up.

Unlike others who thought he spent a lot of time by the princess's side after becoming the acting legion commander, Ma Zhong really did his best to become stronger, strong enough to surpass his colleagues.

Only by surpassing his colleagues can Ma Zhong truly secure his position, unleash the true combat power of the Princess Guard, and, when necessary, truly protect Her Highness the Princess and fulfill the duties of the legion.

For this, Ma Zhong gave up a lot of personal time, as well as a lot of special working hours that his colleagues envied.

It is through hard work and perseverance that Ma Zhong has become who he is today.

“In terms of strength, we are indeed both internal energy leaving the body.” Ma Zhong looked at Zhao Kuang, who had been defeated, and said calmly, “In our previous matches, I was never injured. Just based on that, you should understand the difference. Perhaps you have experienced a bloody battle and have the corresponding war awareness, but… it’s not enough.”

"Tch!" Zhao Kuang, regaining his footing, snorted lightly. He then mobilized his internal energy, instantly forming an internal energy armor around his body before charging forward again. Extending his spear and deflecting the attack, Ma Zhong skillfully closed the distance between them. He then raised his elbow and struck, once again knocking Zhao Kuang back.

"We're only here to rest and recuperate. We have important business to attend to, so we don't have much time to waste." Ma Zhong, having once again repelled Zhao Kuang, turned to look at Liu Hu, Yu Yao, and the others, and said with a hint of arrogance, "Come at me all at once, it'll speed things up!"

These words shocked everyone present, and they all stared at Ma Zhong in disbelief.

“General Ma, you should think this through. There are six of us. Even if you were Marquis Wen alive, you couldn’t easily win against six experts of the same level.” Wang Meng asked directly, breaking the silence of the others, before anyone else could speak up.

“Since I dare to say it, I dare to do it.” Ma Zhong answered seriously at first, then said with a hint of sarcasm, “Of course, you can also admit defeat.”

"Since General Ma says so, then I'll have to offend you." With a casual flick of his foot, Wang Meng grabbed the single-edged hammer that was stuck in the ground and his eyes instantly flashed with intense fighting spirit. He then charged forward without hesitation.

"Excuse me!" Yang Mao, holding a spear, casually made a starting stance before charging forward as well.

The two captains, Liu Hu and Yu Yao, who remained in place, seemed to understand each other's thoughts as they looked at each other, as well as Ma Zhong's. They then picked up their weapons, their inner energy quickly covering their entire bodies to form armor, and then charged out at the same time, showing a high degree of tacit understanding.

As the group rushed forward simultaneously, Long Nianyi glanced at the bamboo slip in his hand, sighed softly, and finally gave up the idea of ​​charging forward.

Zhao Kuang, who had been repelled, looked down at the spear in his hand and the dent in his chest as the others attacked. After a moment of silence, he turned and walked toward Long Nianyi's position.

"Give up?" Long Nian turned his head and looked at Zhao Kuang, who seemed a little unhappy, and asked him on the spot.

"Losing is losing, it's not a big deal." Zhao Kuang nodded gently and said as calmly as possible.

“You’ve all hidden some of your abilities, even the corresponding effects and functions, so why can’t the Legion Commander hide his own abilities?” Long Nianyi said with a smile, seemingly unremarkable. “Now that we’ve fought, you should understand the difference between us.”

"In a life-or-death battle, I wouldn't lose within fifty moves. He cheated." Zhao Kuang first explained his abilities, then remained silent for a while before sighing and saying, "Losing is losing, it's no big deal."

It's really not a big deal?
Seeing Zhao Kuang's expression, Long Nianyi already understood the situation quite well.

However, Long Nianyi actually agreed with what Zhao Kuang said.

Ma Zhong's current strength is indeed the strongest among them, but it is absolutely impossible to defeat them in a short period of time.

Having seen and learned more, Long Nianyi was very clear about the outside world's evaluation of the guards, and also understood the thoughts of the court officials about the guards.

'Commander, Commander, before all the soldiers, display strength surpassing all others, then unite the legion and unleash the true power of the Guard! Only then will we have the right to avoid being disbanded!'

Despite these thoughts, Long Nianyi continued to play with the bamboo slip in his hand, while keeping his eyes fixed on the battle, as if he might join the fray at any moment.

If Ma Zhong is unable to defeat the other four, Long Nianyi will take action and use relatively insidious means to grant Ma Zhong victory, maintaining a relatively reliable balance. However, this balance will not make the guards stronger and may even leave hidden dangers.

However, for the sake of his ultimate goal, Long Nianyi had no choice but to wait for the final outcome of the battle. (End of Chapter)
