Endless Winter: My Camp Infinite Upgrades

Chapter 285: Humiliation and Building a New Army

"stop!"

The two men walked quickly towards the house. When they were still more than ten meters away, Yang Zhong, who had a bad temper, directly scolded those people.

"Hey, the two young masters are back from hunting."

"We got home a little early today. There are still more than two hours before dawn!"

"Why is Third Young Master so generous? He is just taking a look."

………………

The sarcasm and ridicule from the people at the door made Yang Zhong's already rising anger rise further, and his hands holding the stick trembled continuously.

When he heard the last word "Third Young Master", he couldn't bear it any longer and rushed towards the man, ready to attack.

The man was obviously not very strong. When he saw Yang Zhong rushing towards him, he immediately took a few steps back in fear.

Snapped……

If a fight occurs among members of the garrison, once it is verified, no matter what the cause is, the minimum sentence is one month of hard labor in the mines. If it causes serious consequences, the person may be forced to serve in the mines for the rest of his life.

Li Hu, who knew the rules of the camp well, naturally could not let Yang Zhong take action. He reached out and grabbed him, then gave Yang Zhong a look.

Yang Zhong was not confused either. When he saw Li Hu's eyes, he calmed down instantly. He stood where he was, took a few deep breaths, and then stared at the man who had shrunk a few steps back with a hint of disdain.

The man was obviously a little embarrassed. He realized that the two men didn't dare to fight and continued to taunt Yang Zhong, "Third Young Master, your strength has really improved a lot recently. You even dare to fight in the garrison."

"You broke in for no reason..."

"Whatever you say to these dogs, just find their masters."

Before Yang Zhong could finish his words, he was interrupted by Li Hu.

Hearing Li Hu's words, the dozen or so people around the house suddenly showed anger on their faces. Just as they were about to retort, an extremely calm voice came from Li Hu's house on the left.

"Fourth brother, come in."

"Old Three, get in here too!"

If the previous voice was very flat, it was hard to tell the owner's emotions;
The latter domineering shout was completely opposite to the former one. The tone was full of ferocity and brutality, and it was obvious that the man was disgusted with the third brother he was talking about.

Hearing the two voices coming from the house, Li Hu and Yang Zhong's faces immediately turned gloomy, but they quickly regained their composure and walked inside.

There were thirteen people in the room, eight of them dressed as subordinates, rummaging around for something; the remaining five were about the same age as Li Hu, and their clothes were obviously more luxurious than the nine. They were standing in the middle of the room, looking at Li Yang and the other two who walked in slowly.

The moment Li Hu and Yang Zhong walked in, the five of them obviously noticed something and their expressions changed slightly.

The man in the middle stared at Li Hu and said in a deep voice, "Old Four, I haven't seen you for only half a month, and you have already broken through to the limit of the Digging Realm. Is there something you didn't tell me?"

"Why, Li Wuqing, you are allowed to practice, but I am not allowed to break through?"

Li Hu was not surprised that Li Wuqing saw through his cultivation level at a glance. After all, the other party had broken through the limit of the Digging Realm two years ago and started using beast blood.

Li Wuqing looked very surprised. He had obviously never seen Li Hu so tough. He lowered his head and stared at him for a while. He seemed to have thought of something and chuckled:
"Li Hu, you probably think that if you break through the limit of the Digging Realm, you will be able to join the Longyou Army. By then, you will not be in the hunting team, and I will not be able to control you even if I want to, right?"

Li Hu sneered as a response to Li Yuanqing.

The reason why Li Yuanqing could unscrupulously stuff people into his hunting team was because his grandfather Zhu Xing was in charge of all the ordinary hunting teams in Longshan.

Just as Li Yuanqing said, he has now broken through the limit of the Digging Realm and will be able to join the Longyou Army soon. By then, he will not be in the hunting team, and even Zhu Xing will not be able to control him, let alone Li Yuanqing in front of him.

The Longyou Army is the most powerful weapon in Longshan's hands, and its management is extremely strict. Except for the leader and a few people like Li Tiancheng, no one else can interfere in military affairs, not even Zhu Xing.

He had been trying his best to speed up his breakthrough during this period in order to enter the army as soon as possible and escape the surveillance of Li Yuanqing and Yang Gan.

Of course, the more important purpose is to steal for Daxia...

call!
As Li Hu's mind was racing with thoughts, a gust of fist wind suddenly came towards him.

Li Yuanqing had attacked him many times before, so Li Hu reacted quickly. A hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes, and he quickly drew out his sword and fought back.

Internal fighting is not allowed in the Longshan base, but since the other party started the fight first, he has nothing to worry about. He knows that his own strength is definitely not as good as Li Yuanqing's. After all, the other party had made a breakthrough two years ago, so he directly drew out his sword to deal with it.

"He broke through two years ago. His basic strength is at most 10,000 higher than mine. If he wants to defeat me with his fists, I can do it..."

boom!
Li Hu's thoughts were directly shattered by Li Yuanqing's straight punch.

Click...

The opponent's fist hit his sword directly. The terrifying force was transmitted to his arm, and the bones made a crisp sound. Li Hu's face changed instantly.

The sword slipped out of his hand and he flew backwards more than ten meters, directly smashing the wall of the house behind him, and his body was blasted into the ground for half a meter.

Pfft…………

"Brother Tiger!"

Yang Zhong, who was standing by, looked dazed for a few seconds. After he came to his senses, he immediately tried to help Li Hu up in a panic. However, he had just taken two steps when he was kicked away by Yang Gan, who was standing next to Li Yuanqing.

"Third brother, did the eldest brother ask you to move?"

After Yang Gan kicked Yang Zhong away, he rushed forward without mercy and stomped hard on his left cheek, pressing his head into the ground more than ten centimeters, leaving only his left eye exposed.

"Third brother, your basic strength has improved a lot in the recent short period of time. Tell me honestly, you are Li Hu, how did you do it?"

Yang Zhong's temper was stronger than Li Hu's. Facing such humiliation, he was furious. Even though he knew he was not as strong as the other party, he still roared, "Yang Gan, kill me if you dare. As long as I am alive, I will kill you one day in the future."

This was probably not the first time Yang Zhong said such a thing. A hint of murderous intent flashed across Yang Gan's eyes, but he quickly held back and sneered, "A waste who has not yet broken through the 30,000-jin limit at the age of 22. If it weren't for the camp's rules, you would have died countless times. Even if I give you another ten years, you can only be at my feet. Do you understand, waste?"

boom!
"Trash, you trash!"

Yang Gan had an extremely violent temper. Perhaps he felt unsatisfied, so while he was cursing Yang Zhong as a piece of trash, he kept stomping hard on various parts of Yang Zhong's body.

However, it can be seen that Yang Zhong did not kill him after all. Otherwise, judging from the kick he just used, if he had used all his strength, Yang Zhong would not have survived.

Although he didn't kill him, he still humiliated him to the extreme.

"Kill me if you dare. Kill me."

"Kill me, you bastard! Kill me!"

"You beast, I will definitely kill you and your mother."

………………

With his head buried in the ground, Yang Zhong was still roaring, and he refused to give in no matter how much pain he was in. It was as if he was deliberately trying to provoke Yang Gan, and in the end he even said what was in his heart. Hearing the other party threatening to kill his mother, Yang Gan was obviously angry, with murderous intent in his eyes, and suddenly raised his foot high, obviously intending to kill her.

"Li Yuanqing, have you broken through to the Cold Resistance Level first?"

But at this moment, Li Hu on the other side suddenly spoke.

Li Hu's question seemed to stimulate Yang Gan. He thought of something, and although he still stepped forward, he withdrew 70% to 80% of the strength.

Yang Zhong's roar also stopped at this moment. He turned his head to look at Li Yuanqing. His lying body shook slightly and a trace of despair flashed across his face.

Obviously, Li Hu asked this question at this moment because he had just received a punch from Li Yuanqing and he felt Li Yuanqing's strength.

Li Yuanqing broke through the limit of the Digging Realm two years ago and began to use animal blood to reshape his skin membrane. It was self-evident what Li Hu's question meant.

"You still have some vision!"

Li Yuanqing's voice was full of pride. He walked slowly to Li Hu, kicked him out from the ground, then squatted in front of him and continued:
"Li Hu, you and Yang Zhong have been practicing at abnormal speeds recently. You must be hiding something. If you know what's good for you, tell me right away. Otherwise, I will really use some tricks. You and Yang Zhong will never have the chance to hunt in Longshan again. Do you believe me?"

Seeing that Li Hu remained silent, he seemed to have thought of something, and a cold light flashed in his eyes as he said, "Oh, right, you have broken through to the limit of the Digging Realm, and Yang Zhong has also broken through. What you need next is beast blood..."

Yang Gan immediately took over Li Yuanqing's words and sneered, "You two little bastards, you want to exchange beast blood? Dream on!"

Li Hu and Yang Zhong, who were lying on the ground, looked much gloomier in an instant when they heard Yang Gan's words.

Yang Gan's father, Yang Fengping, is not only the strongest archer in the camp, but also in charge of all the elite hunting teams in Longshan. The animal blood bank is managed by his mother Li Xuanqiu.

Li Xuanqiu was the murderer of Yang Zhong's mother, so it was naturally impossible for him to exchange beast blood like other normal Digging Realm masters.

So what Yang Gan said was right, the two of them were really dreaming about exchanging beast blood.

"How about this? As long as you tell me the secret of how to increase your cultivation speed, I will never stop you from going to the warehouse to exchange for beast blood. How do you think?"

After pretending to think, Li Yuanqing put forward the conditions and gave Yang Gan a look, obviously asking him to cooperate.

Yang Gan responded immediately, his eyes twinkling as he said, "That's right, Third Brother, we are still a family after all. As long as you tell me the secret, I won't cause you any more trouble. How about that?"

hehe…………

Li Hu and Yang Zhong couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.

How could they be so easily deceived when they grew up under the eyes of Zhu Rou and Li Xuanqiu? Li Yuanqing and Yang Gan's tricks could not be hidden from them.

The two of them said nothing, and the scene suddenly became quiet and cold.

Li Yuanqing and Yang Gan waited for a long time without any response, and realized that their tricks had been discovered by the two men, and finally annoyance appeared on their faces.

"Okay, then don't tell me. Anyway, I have never taken you two pieces of trash seriously, but..."

Li Yuanqing's tone gradually became gloomy, and he continued: "If you think that everything will be fine after joining the Longyou Army, then you are very wrong. The camp meeting last night has decided to build a new Longyou Army. I have been appointed as one of the two commanders of the new army. Even if you join the new army, you can't escape from my control."

Yang Gan couldn't help but speak at this time, grinning at Yang Zhong on the ground:

"I'm not far from a breakthrough, and you can't escape from my grasp!"

Upon hearing this, Li Hu and Yang Zhong's faces both turned serious.

Today is the first day of June, and yesterday was the last day of May. It is indeed the day for Longshan’s monthly meeting. Li Yuanqing should not have lied.

The Longyou Army consists of a thousand people. The establishment of a new army means that those who break through the Digging Realm limit in the future will be incorporated into the new army.

The regulations of the Longyou Army were one commander and four lieutenants;

The captain commanded the entire army; two captains-in-chief, each leading a regiment of 500 people, were responsible for actual command; each regiment was assigned a captain-in-chief, who was in charge of military punishment and battlefield discipline, including post-war rewards and punishments.

If they break through the limit of the Digging Realm at this time, they will definitely be incorporated into the new army. There are only two regiments of 500 people in total. It is not difficult for Li Yuanqing to manipulate the situation behind the scenes and incorporate the two into his own army.

Therefore, it is not an empty statement to say that you cannot escape from his grasp.

"I will give you one last chance. Tell me the secret of your recent accelerated cultivation progress..."

Li Yuanqing asked again without giving up. Seeing that Li Hu and Yang Zhong remained silent, he finally lost his patience and laughed angrily:
"Alright, alright, if you don't want to accept my toast, then I will not allow you to go out hunting once every night. Without the meat, I want to see how you can get the blood of the beasts and continue to break through!"

After Li Yuanqing finished speaking, he turned around and left with Yang Gan.

The rest of the people followed the two and walked out together.

In the house, two people lying on the ground did not move for a long time.

Just from the two increasingly heavy breathing sounds, it could be heard that both of them were obviously not at peace in their hearts.

After a long time, Li Hu, who was less seriously injured, stood up first. Looking at the mess in his house, although he was furious, he calmed down and walked to Yang Zhong and helped him up.

"Huzi, how about we go to Daxia first..."

"Don't be silly, I know what you want to say!"

Li Hu interrupted Yang Zhong directly and silently picked up the things on the ground.

His tone became unusually calm, and he continued, "If we go to Daxia now, we will be like two stray dogs. Not only will we be sorry for the training materials that Lord Si Cheng gave us, but it will also be difficult for us to make a name for ourselves in Daxia in the future."

After he finished speaking, he paused and continued, "This humiliation is more serious than before. It's probably because our cultivation speed has been getting faster and faster recently, which makes them a little afraid. This is a good thing, so don't be discouraged."

Yang Zhong's expression became a little serious, and he still looked a little hesitant.

"But if we really join the new army, Li Yuanqing..."

"Li Yuanqing is not that capable. If he were really that strong, he wouldn't just be a military commander. He just took advantage of his position to withhold our training materials when rewarding people for their merits. But we are different..."

Li Hu said this, raised his head with a look of hatred, and continued in a deep voice: "After joining the new army, we will be able to contact the camp's top leaders and know all the movements of the Longyou Army. Do you think this kind of information is important to Daxia and Lord Sicheng?"

Yang Zhong's expression froze, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"As far as I know, the current number of Digging Realm soldiers in the camp is not enough. Building a new army consumes a huge amount of resources. Longshan will not build a new army for no reason. It is likely that the camp has made some moves. We must quickly pass this news to Lord Sicheng."

Hearing Li Hu's words, Yang Zhong nodded immediately, but soon looked embarrassed.

"They've been keeping a close eye on us lately, even in the base. We don't have any chance to go out alone, so how can we pass on the message?"

"We need to develop another reliable newcomer, a newcomer who is not noticed by Li Yuanqing and Yang Gan, and let him help us pass on the message."

Xue Ping!

This name popped up in Yang Zhong's mind almost immediately.
