My Ares Son-in-Law

"Hmph, courting death! Look at his delicate skin, how many kicks can he withstand?"

"This is what happens when you're foul-mouthed!"

Amidst the murmurs, Lu Xiaofeng had already closed to within five meters of Xiao Chen! His internal energy circulated rapidly, channeling into his legs. As he charged forward, he suddenly ducked, then, like a spring compressed to its limit, he was suddenly released. He leaped into the air and spun around, his right leg transforming into a blurry whip-like shadow, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek, heading straight for Xiao Chen's temple!

That kick was tricky! Ruthless! Swift!

Clearly, Lu Xiaofeng was furious and attacked with a killing move, showing no intention of holding back! He wanted to kill him in one blow and completely wash away the shame this man had brought to the Martial Arts Army!

Faced with a kick that was powerful enough to shatter steel plates, Xiao Chen remained standing, his posture as upright as a pine tree, his eyes showing no fluctuation whatsoever, as if what was coming towards him was not a fatal attack, but merely a trivial breeze.

Just as the shadowy leg was about to strike, Xiao Chen finally moved.

He didn't dodge or block, but instead raised his right leg as well! The movement seemed slow, but in reality, it was a counterattack that arrived first, precisely meeting Lu Xiaofeng's fierce whip kick!
"I told you, the challenge is with all of you."

"You alone are far from qualified."

"In that case, I don't mind giving you your first lesson ahead of time."

"Watch closely, let your Qi flow freely, let your strength rise from the ground, concentrate it into a single line, and unleash it in an instant!"

His voice was clear and calm, each word like a hammer blow striking the hearts of everyone present.

In the eyes of others, his actions were tantamount to a mantis trying to stop a chariot!

Who doesn't know that Lu Xiaofeng, nicknamed "Shadow Shuttle," possesses unparalleled leg skills in the martial arts army? His speed is incredible, his power immense, and his techniques incredibly versatile! Among his peers, few dare to directly confront his prowess!
This kid actually wants to go toe-to-toe with Lu Xiaofeng? He's just asking for humiliation! That leg is probably going to be lost!
"boom--!"

The two legs collided violently without any fancy moves! A dull, thunderous explosion followed!

At the center of the collision, a visible shockwave suddenly spread out in a ring, stirring up countless specks of dust from the ground, as if an invisible bomb had been dropped! The wind howled, causing the clothes of some nearby soldiers to flutter wildly, making it almost impossible for them to open their eyes.

However, the scene that Xiao Chen was expected to have—his leg bone breaking and him flying backward with a scream—did not occur.

Quite the contrary!

Everyone only saw a blur before their eyes, and a figure shot back at an even faster speed than before, like a kite with a broken string!

It's Lu Xiaofeng!

"puff--"

He spat out a mouthful of blood mid-air, tracing a tragic arc. As if hit by a speeding truck, he was thrown uncontrollably more than ten meters away, finally crashing heavily onto the hard alloy ground with a loud bang, rolling several times before barely coming to a stop.

Lu Xiaofeng braced himself with one hand, trying to stand up, but a mouthful of blood suddenly surged up in his throat, which he forced down. He knelt on the ground, breathing heavily, his face as pale as paper, his entire right leg and half of his body trembling uncontrollably, the excruciating pain instantly covering his forehead in cold sweat.

He raised his head, his eyes filled with a complex mix of horror, disbelief, and a lingering anger, staring intently at the still calm and composed figure in the distance. He forced out three words through clenched teeth:
"He...is very strong."

hiss--!
The entire base was instantly filled with gasps of shock! Everyone froze on the spot as if struck by lightning, their expressions—sneers, mockery, anger—all frozen in place, replaced by utter astonishment and incomprehensible bewilderment!
one move!
Just one move!
Many people didn't even see clearly what happened!
Lu Xiaofeng, known as "Shadow Shuttle" for his leg skills and unparalleled speed in the martial arts army, was defeated just like that?

And it was a crushing defeat with no suspense whatsoever!
It even forced Lu Xiaofeng to admit that the other party was "very strong"!
How can this be? !
Just what kind of monster is this guy named Xiao Chen?!
Just as everyone was still reeling from the shock, Xiao Chen took another step forward.

This step, though seemingly casual, felt as if it had touched the hearts of all the martial arts soldiers.

He surveyed the entire scene, his gaze remaining calm, and once again beckoned to the dozens of stunned elites, his tone carrying a maddening casualness:

"It seems I was right when I said the Martial Arts Army has no real strength and only knows how to talk big."

"If anyone still disagrees, or feels offended by my words..."

"Then step forward and prove yourselves to me with your abilities."

"I accept the challenge from all of you."

The reason he so ruthlessly crushed their arrogance was to utterly shatter their ridiculous self-importance built on past honors! Only by recognizing their own insignificance and inadequacy, and by holding greater power in awe, could they truly break free of their shackles and go further on the path of martial arts and slaughter!

Without reverence, how can there be progress?
"Roar--!"

"Too deceiving!"

"Fuck him!"

"For the glory of the Martial Arts Army!"

Xiao Chen's renewed provocation was like lighting the final fuse! The last vestiges of reason were completely overwhelmed by a torrent of rage!

This time, it's not just one or two people!
Lei Lie let out a deafening roar and charged out like a mad bull!
Behind him, the dozens of martial arts elites who had been unable to restrain themselves, like a flood bursting its banks, charged fiercely from all directions toward the proud figure in the center of the arena with overwhelming momentum!

A battle for dignity! A battle for glory!

Having been so humiliated, if we don't fight back with all our might, how can the Martial Arts Army still have the face to call itself the backbone of China?! We might as well all retire and go back to our hometowns!
Zhuang Yuan stared at the terrifying scene before him, a scene of carnage and murderous intent soaring to the heavens, and his lips twitched slightly. One man, taking on the entire elite of the Martial Arts Army... Such an insane act could probably only be accomplished by this young man named Xiao Chen beside him, and done so with such nonchalance throughout the entire Dragon Kingdom.

He was indeed somewhat worried at that moment.

However, he wasn't worried about Xiao Chen.

Instead, it's the elite soldiers under her command whom she has painstakingly trained... After this commotion, who knows how many people will need to be put into the medical pods later, and the next mission arrangements will probably give him a headache again.

The atmosphere in the center of the training field was extremely tense!

Dozens of figures flashed and moved like ghosts, creating a series of sharp, whistling sounds as they pierced the air. Violent energies collided and clashed wildly, producing a series of muffled explosions. The resulting shockwaves, like invisible ripples, continuously impacted the surroundings, repeatedly stirring up the accumulated dust on the ground, making the space blurry and oppressive.
