Chapter 87: Strip Off All Their Clothes, Not Leaving A Single Piece
Facing the twelve army corps commanders with clubs in their hands, Cheng Lin Yue wanted to protect Jiang Tea Tea, but no matter how she tried to stand in front, there were still people watching them from all sides like hungry tigers.
She could not protect Jiang Tea Tea. She was also afraid that the baby in Jiang Tea Tea’s belly would be hurt in the fight, so she said: “Sister Tea, they are all beastmen above level S3. The two of us can’t beat them. If we really can’t, we can just cut our throats and forfeit.”
Jiang Tea Tea was behind her. She put a hand on Cheng Lin Yue’s shoulder to calm her: “Don’t worry. We wiped out all twelve of them in the first round. In the second round, we can wipe them out again.”
Cheng Lin Yue admired Sister Tea’s full confidence and bright spirit: “No, Sister Tea, your body…”
Jiang Tea Tea made a small gesture: “My body is very strong. There is no problem at all. Trust me.”
Seeing that she was set on this, Cheng Lin Yue both admired her and could not help reminding her: “Sister Tea, don’t try to show off in everything. It doesn’t matter if the two of us can’t beat the twelve of them.”
Jiang Tea Tea nodded: “I know…”
“Have you two finished discussing?” One of the twelve army corps commanders cut them off: “Are you going to forfeit and get eliminated, or are we going to beat you until you cut your throats and get eliminated? Pick one.”
“Yeah, Jiang Tea Tea, schoolmate. Just like the little girl next to you said, there is no shame in admitting defeat when you face an attack from twelve of us.”
“In the first round, you teamed up with others and beat us up badly and killed us. Now we are here to take back the field. If you don’t admit defeat, we’ll beat you…”
“Stop talking nonsense. Let me find a weapon first.” Jiang Tea Tea cut them off and took a 1.5-meter-long stick out of her space knob storage device.
The stick was thinner than her pinky and so soft that when she held it, it looked a bit like a whip, but it was harder than a whip.
When Cheng Lin Yue saw her take out a stick, she also pulled out a stick.
Jiang Tea Tea held her stick in one hand.
Cheng Lin Yue held hers with both hands.
Jiang Tea Tea stood straight.
Cheng Lin Yue stuck out her butt and watched left and right.
The twelve army corps commanders were very excited. They glanced at one another and raised the clubs in their hands, attacking the two of them.
On the chief commander ship, Chong Ming stared without blinking at the giant screen that showed the twelve army corps commanders surrounding Jiang Tea Tea and Cheng Lin Yue.
Clubs clashed with sticks. Legs and fists flew. Jiang Tea Tea not only attacked and blocked others, she also had to help pull Cheng Lin Yue out of danger.
For a while, she fell into a disadvantage.
Cheng Lin Yue was extremely anxious: “Sister Tea, you don’t need to worry about me! Watch out for yourself! Just hit them…”
Before Cheng Lin Yue could finish, the instructor group members flung her out of the encirclement. They did not cut her throat or eliminate her. They only thought she was in the way and threw her far away. Then they focused on surrounding Jiang Tea Tea.
With no Cheng Lin Yue to worry about, Jiang Tea Tea fought one against twelve. The stick in her hand whipped around like a lash, crackling in the air. She stubbornly kept the twelve army corps commanders from getting close to her.
The twelve army corps commanders only used physical strength to attack. They did not activate their supernatural abilities. They also knew that twelve people surrounding one was unfair, so they held back a bit on purpose. They fought her in a way that looked somewhat even.
Cheng Lin Yue ran around the outside and could not break in. She was frantic. She sent messages and called Sui Xuan Chu and the other six men.
The messages and calls sank like a stone into the sea. She did not get any reply at all. None of the calls connected.
It was not that Sui Xuan Chu and the other five refused to answer. It was that they literally had no hands free. When they finished hunting eight wild donkeys and were about to head back, eighteen army corps commanders blocked their path.
Eighteen army corps commanders went at these six young men with supernatural abilities and clubs. They beat the six of them so hard that they did not even have a chance to cut their own throats and forfeit, much less answer calls from Cheng Lin Yue.
“You twelve, use supernatural abilities to attack her.”
Chong Ming’s voice sounded in the invisible earpieces in the ears of the twelve army corps commanders.
“Force her to use supernatural abilities to fight you.”
The twelve army corps commanders jumped in shock. They did not expect that while they were fighting, their own Commander in Chief would be watching the whole thing live in the middle of the night and personally giving orders.
They followed the Commander in Chief’s orders without question. Twelve people, twelve different supernatural abilities, all blasted toward Jiang Tea Tea at once.
The moment they activated their supernatural abilities, Jiang Tea Tea whipped her branch staff and moved at her fastest speed, dodging and fleeing.
But she was still one step too slow.
She was surrounded by raging flames. Lava circled around her. Air vortexes twisted and pulled at her. She could not dodge. She could not escape. Her hair started to smell scorched. Her whole body felt like it was being roasted alive over a fire.
“You are going too far! You are all going too far! You instructor group people have no shame at all, twelve bullying one pure human without supernatural abilities.”
Cheng Lin Yue cursed as she ran toward her. She activated her supernatural abilities, and a huge water column thicker than someone’s arms wrapped around a tree trunk poured down from the sky, aimed right at Jiang Tea Tea.
“Sister Tea, I will save you and beat these beastmen whose levels don’t match and who bully with numbers and have no shame!”
The huge water column became Jiang Tea Tea’s saving water. She gathered spiritual power and wrapped it around the branch stick in her hand, then slammed it into the giant water column.
The huge water column was smashed apart. The water droplets turned into sharp ice, like they had grown eyes, and flew at the twelve army corps commanders to attack them.
The twelve army corps commanders had not expected that one strike from Jiang Tea Tea’s stick would turn the splashing water into sharp ice. Some of them charged forward through the ice. Some dodged the ice and moved away.
The flames and lava surrounding Jiang Tea Tea were also put out as the remaining water fell to the ground.
“Crack!”
The stick in Jiang Tea Tea’s hand snapped forward and whipped the forehead of the Thirteenth Army’s commander.
The Thirteenth Army’s commander had been busy dodging the ice. Faced with such a fast and fierce strike, he had no time to dodge. The stick landed right on his forehead.
His head buzzed, and his sight went black.
The stick in Jiang Tea Tea’s hand softened like a whip and wrapped around his neck. She yanked hard, then flipped her red soft blade into her hand and slashed across his throat.
Jiang Tea Tea raised her leg and kicked. She kicked the Thirteenth Army’s commander right in the stomach.
The Thirteenth Army’s commander was hit. The 180-jin beastman man was kicked flying and crashed hard into the grass, eliminated.
Cheng Lin Yue cheered: “Sister Tea, you are amazing! You are so awesome!”
Jiang Tea Tea smiled at her: “You are amazing too. It’s all thanks to your water element supernatural ability for bringing such a big water column.”
Being praised made Cheng Lin Yue shine. She answered loudly: “Sister Tea, I can make an even bigger water column!”
Jiang Tea Tea put away the branch stick in her hand: “Come on then.”
Cheng Lin Yue nodded hard: “Okay!”
Earlier, the water column had been so thick that one person could not wrap their arms around it. Now, Cheng Lin Yue summoned a water column so big that even two people together could not wrap their arms around it. It poured down from the sky.
“It’s confirmed now, Commander in Chief.”
Cai Xi Chao, holding a light-brain wrist terminal and an unknown energy monitoring device, came to stand by her Commander in Chief: “The unknown energy detected on the ship before is the same as the energy released by schoolmate Jiang Tea Tea.”
“But when that energy entity appeared on the ship earlier, Jiang Tea Tea had a solid alibi. So we can judge that they are two different beings.”
“As for whether the other one is male or female, a pure human or some other species, we can’t know yet.”
“I also did a large-scale scan of the 1.8 million military academy students and more than 200,000 instructor group members. There are a few hundred suspicious targets, but the suspicious signs are not obvious. I still need more detailed checking and watching.”
Chong Ming looked at the energy entity fluctuation map she projected: “Keep checking when you have time. Focus mainly on observing Jiang Tea Tea.”
Cai Xi Chao answered: “Yes, Commander in Chief.”
Chong Ming watched Jiang Tea Tea on the giant screen as she once again drew on the unknown energy, turning the water column into ice beads and smashing them at the eleven army corps commanders.
Flames, boiling lava, lightning, wind, and other supernatural abilities attacked back at Jiang Tea Tea all at once.
Jiang Tea Tea threw out her stick and silently recited a magic spells formula in her heart. Just as all the supernatural abilities were about to hit her, she opened her mouth and shouted one word: “Freeze!”
In an instant, not only the flames, boiling lava, lightning, wind, and the rest of the supernatural abilities, but also the eleven army corps commanders themselves, all froze and went still.
Jiang Tea Tea shouted loudly at Cheng Lin Yue: “Cheng Lin Yue, cut their throats and eliminate them, hurry!”
Cheng Lin Yue answered and pulled out her red soft blade, then slashed it across the necks of the eleven army corps commanders one by one.
In an instant, all eleven army corps commanders had their throats cut by the red soft blade, the bright red color shocking to the eyes. They were eliminated.
Jiang Tea Tea jumped lightly where she stood, leaped from her spot, and landed by Cheng Lin Yue’s side. She snapped her fingers.
The stasis technique vanished. All the supernatural abilities crashed into each other, and there was a huge boom. Flames exploded, lava spread everywhere, and a large patch of grass on the ground died.
Chong Ming sat up straight and suddenly laughed: “Deputy Officer Ai, she really is surprising, isn’t she?”
Deputy Officer Ai had been standing beside him, watching Jiang Tea Tea fight and eliminate people from start to finish: “Yes, Commander in Chief, she is very surprising.”
Chong Ming’s smile did not fade: “Time-stopping supernatural abilities, rare devouring supernatural abilities, high-level plant-type supernatural abilities. Tell me, do you think she might have even more surprises?”
Deputy Officer Ai answered respectfully: “Maybe. She is like a treasure. She doesn’t show anything on her own, but at critical moments, she always surprises people.”
Chong Ming nodded in agreement: “You’re right. She is like a treasure. She already has three types of supernatural abilities, and it’s possible she has more. I need to dig them out slowly.”
Deputy Officer Ai said: “Congratulations, Commander in Chief. Among all the Three Armies Commander in Chief candidates you found this time, she is the best. Her supernatural ability level is the highest, and she has the most supernatural abilities.”
Chong Ming’s smile slowly faded: “Yes. In the past two years, we have found more than a hundred candidates. She is the best one, the sharpest one, and the one whose words are the most mocking and strange.”
Aside from his blood, nothing seemed able to move her.
Even when she was dirt poor and had no money, she could stand there, flaring her nostrils and glaring, not afraid of anything, looking down on everyone. She acted like she was the real boss. That kind of energy was something others did not have, something others lacked.
The eleven army corps commanders could move their bodies again. Each of them touched his neck with one hand and gave Jiang Tea Tea a thumbs up with the other: “Jiang Tea Tea, schoolmate, you are amazing. You are awesome. You really surprised us.”
“Time-stopping supernatural abilities that can selectively freeze objects. Losing to you this time, we accept it. But the Supremacy Tournament still has a third round. I hope we will see each other in the third round.”
“Yes, I hope we meet in the third round. We will definitely beat you. When that time comes, you have to choose to come to my First Army Corps.”
The stasis technique was supported by spiritual power. Her spiritual power had only about twenty percent left to begin with. Using the stasis technique had consumed more than ten percent.
Now her belly felt a bit uncomfortable. She pressed her hand to her stomach and did not answer the army corps commanders. Instead she said to Cheng Lin Yue: “Cheng Lin Yue, they are already dead. Strip off the space knob storage devices and all the clothes on them. Don’t leave a single piece.”
