The aliens who were picked up by Superman at the beginning

Chapter 179 Swing Choice

A shadow spread out beneath Rachel's feet as she stood by the window, her figure disappearing into it.

Then a shadow appeared at Li Zhen's feet, and Rachel emerged from it, skillfully raising her hand to repair the missing carbonized armor on Li Zhen's body back to its original state.

Li Zhen nodded to Rachel and casually tossed the dead-dog-like Shazam aside.

With a thud, her heavy body crashed to the floor. Li Zhen looked up at the others gathered by the window.

"Get down, everyone."

Tim, who was in Titan Tower, instinctively put the ledger back into his pocket.

"Everyone, we'll settle the accounts tonight. Don't worry, not a penny will be missing."

The others quickly nodded, while Mal, who hadn't deposited any money, was already standing by the elevator waiting.

A moment later, the boys and girls who had gathered in the square stood straight, nervously watching Li Zhen, who was deep in thought, while secretly glancing at the pitiful Shazam beside them out of the corner of their eyes.

Good heavens, most of them have never witnessed such a brutal sparring match.

This is definitely not the kind of training they usually receive from their elders, which is just a brief introduction.

His skin was torn open, bones were exposed, his battle clothes were tattered, and blood was everywhere.

Blue Beetle Haimei was trembling with fear. As a lucky guy who found an alien high-tech beetle, he had never received any proper training.

Tula and Donna, who hadn't taken the so-called training seriously last night, also had very interesting expressions on their faces.

This is no longer about whether Kara will get into trouble, as they did yesterday.

Shazam was beaten to a pulp, will this so-called instructor do the same to them?

Of course, there are also people whose expressions don't change.

Cassandra and Mia maintained the same expression throughout, seemingly accustomed to the so-called harsh scene.

As for Mal, although he was also a little nervous, he was well prepared mentally.

"I'm not very good at polite conversation."

After a long silence, Li Zhen finally raised her head.

Upon hearing the instructor speak, everyone immediately stood even straighter.

"Some of you should know me and know my background."

"Titan Tower's computers are connected to part of the Justice League's database, so those who are not familiar with me can go and take a look to learn more."

"I don't have a self-introduction section here. I've already seen most of your materials, so I'll go straight to giving you training requirements."

"Next, before we begin the first day of training, you have ten minutes to ask questions—of course, anyone who is afraid can request to withdraw now."

Rachel, who was originally standing next to Li Zhen, quietly walked to the middle of the line and stood in line.

The boys and girls exchanged glances, and Donna Troy, who had already met Li Zhen once, stepped forward and spoke first.

"I'd like to know what our training regimen is like? Will we be training together from now on?"

All eyes were focused on Li Zhen, which was clearly one of the issues that everyone was most concerned about.

Regardless of whether it's strict or not, the people present come from all walks of life; some have superpowers, and some don't.

Training as a team is actually a very unrealistic issue.

What would be an exhausting training session for an average person might just be a matter of taking a few more breaths for the Atlanteans and Amazons.

Not to mention there's a Kryptonian named Kara in there.

Even if everyone else were exhausted, Kara wouldn't feel a thing.

"You can rest assured about that. Even I am not good at teamwork, let alone training you all together."

Li Zhenping gave a calm response.

"I only have one goal: to push each of you to your limits, and that goes beyond just physical strength."

Donna nodded and retreated to the middle of the group.

Blue Beetle Haimei raised her hand somewhat nervously.

When Li Zhen's gaze swept over, he shrank back as if he were frightened.

"Um—I just wanted to ask if the intensity of the training could be made a little more humane?"

Li Zhen raised an eyebrow.

"Be more specific?"

Jaime looked in Shazam's direction. The big, red, dumb guy was starting to heal his wounds, but he was still unconscious and in terrible condition.

"Seriously, you wouldn't have beaten us all up like this, would you?"

Li Zhen smiled.

A very normal and warm smile.

Hai Mei's heart calmed down a little, and she started to giggle.

"What are you thinking? Some of you can't handle such serious injuries, and I don't want the Justice League to come after me later, after all—"

Li Zhen's smile remained unchanged, but the latter half of her sentence seemed to be chillingly cold.

"The Justice League didn't approve any death quotas for me, so you guys probably won't die in training."

Hai Mei's smile froze.

What does it mean to have a high probability of not dying?

"Don't even think about humanization. The training I give you is not humanized at all. That word doesn't even exist in my mind."

Holy crap, what the hell am I supposed to do here? If I stay any longer, I'm afraid I'll really kick the bucket!

Hai Mei immediately wanted to say she was withdrawing, but the other person next to her spoke up even faster.

Mar looked resolute, his eyes filled with an intense intensity as if he were about to sacrifice himself for some great cause.

"I will absolutely not quit, Instructor! I will surpass what you think is my limit!"

Hai Mei's arm, which she was about to slowly raise, suddenly stopped.

He stared at Mar with a look of horror on his face.

Dude, what's with all this enthusiasm?

Didn't you see Shazam? That character who can fly and teleport is lying there like a dead dog, you really have no heart!

After only a brief moment of hesitation, Li Zhen's indifferent voice rang out again.

"Ten minutes are up. It seems everyone has no further questions. Very good."

Hai Mei was in a great hurry.

Me! I have a problem!

"I'm someone who dislikes timid people. It seems that you guys aren't as cowardly as I thought. I thought most Earthlings would choose to quit, since you're all too ordinary."

"It lacks super strength, its healing speed is terrible, and it screams and yells like a pet when it gets even a little injured."

Hai Mei looked like someone in her family had died.

Why say such harsh words? I feel like I'll be expelled from Earth if I keep raising my hand.

"Then let's begin training."

Li Zhen looked up at the sky.

"It's getting late. Everyone who doesn't have superpowers should run five hundred laps around the perimeter of the Teen Titans' base."

Without saying a word, Mar rushed out in one stride.

Mia's face turned pale as she glanced around the base area within her sight. Her usually calm expression turned ashen, but she simply pursed her lips and started walking while unloading the composite bow she had been carrying.

Cassandra and Tim silently followed Mia's footsteps.

Hai Mei breathed a sigh of relief.

In his own mind, he was one of those people with superpowers.

But Li Zhen frowned and called him out by name.

"Jaime Reyes, why aren't you running?"

Hai Mei's eyes darted around, and she pointed to her back with a troubled expression.

"My scarab is connected to my spinal cord and can't be removed. I definitely can't finish the 500 laps. It will automatically wake up and put that power armor on me—I don't want to cheat, instructor."

"It seems you'll have to train with these three ladies."

Li Zhen pointed to the Kara trio.

Jaime became excited immediately.

These three are quite good-looking.

Li Zhen rested her chin on her hand, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"This is unplanned. Let me think about which planet in the solar system has a suitable environment for you to train."

Hai Mei blinked blankly, then raised her hand to pick at her ear, before shuddering.

However, he reacted quickly, immediately raising his hand to interrupt Li Zhen's thoughts.

"Well, I guess I should be considered an Earthling with superpowers, so I'll stick with Lilith and the others—"

My gaze shifted, and there she was, the psychic girl screaming as she was being pulled into the thick tentacles that had reached out from the interdimensional portal opened by Rachel.

Rachel looked at Jaime, whose pink, slimy tentacle was waving in the air.

Are you coming too?
