Chapter 96: Chapter 96 Shocking 3 Seconds

Yang Wucheng looked at Lin Kuang with astonishment. He knew Lin Kuang was strong, but he had no idea of the true extent of his power.

However, he knew exactly how strong Zhang Tianyou was. He could say without hesitation that Zhang Tianyou was the strongest warrior in the entire East Sea Military Region. Otherwise, Yang Wucheng would not have appointed him captain of the Seal Special Team.

Yet now, Lin Kuang had claimed he could defeat Zhang Tianyou in three seconds. Yang Wucheng didn’t believe it; he even felt that Lin Kuang was being recklessly arrogant. I brought him here, so if he fails to defeat Zhang Tianyou in three seconds, how am I going to smooth things over?

Zhang Tianyou was also staring at Lin Kuang in disbelief. Although Lin Kuang gave him a sense of danger, he didn’t think Lin Kuang was necessarily his match. However, Lin Kuang’s claim that he could defeat him in three seconds filled Zhang Tianyou with rage. To him, this was a profound humiliation.

The other eight members of the Seal Special Team clenched their fists, their gazes hostile as they stared at Lin Kuang. His arrogance had thoroughly irritated them.

Zhang Tianyou took a deep breath and looked at Lin Kuang with a cold expression. “Instructor, I will use all my strength to defeat you!”

For soldiers, the response to humiliation was simple: strike back with their greatest strength and crush their opponent.

“Very well,” Lin Kuang said nonchalantly, his gaze shifting to Yang Wucheng. “Commander, would you mind acting as the referee for a moment?”

Hearing this, Yang Wucheng nodded. “Alright.”

After a few seconds, seeing that both men were ready, Yang Wucheng announced, “Begin!”

The moment the word was spoken, Zhang Tianyou shot forward like a cheetah, launching a punch straight at Lin Kuang’s chest. The punch tore through the air with a faint whoosh, a testament to its power.

Lin Kuang’s expression remained perfectly calm. As Zhang Tianyou’s fist approached, he shifted his body slightly to the side, easily dodging the attack. At the same time, he spoke softly, “One second.”

Hearing his words, an unconcealed rage flared on Zhang Tianyou’s face. In the next instant, he planted his feet, spun around, and morphed his fist into a blade hand, chopping viciously at Lin Kuang’s neck. A direct hit from that chop, even if it didn’t render him unconscious, would have been debilitating.

But Lin Kuang remained completely unfazed. He leaned back slightly, and Zhang Tianyou’s strike met nothing but air. Simultaneously, Lin Kuang’s voice reached his ears again. “Two seconds.”

At this, Zhang Tianyou’s anger intensified, his eyes practically shooting fire. Just as he was about to launch another attack, Lin Kuang’s figure blurred and reappeared directly in front of him.

Lin Kuang raised his right leg, driving a fierce knee into Zhang Tianyou’s abdomen. The strike was incredibly fast, giving Zhang Tianyou no time to react. The impact forced Zhang Tianyou’s body to double over like a shrimp, while Lin Kuang sidestepped slightly.

The next moment, Lin Kuang lifted his right arm and brought his elbow down hard on Zhang Tianyou’s back.

BANG!

Zhang Tianyou collapsed face-first onto the ground.

“Three seconds.”

Lin Kuang stood with his hands behind his back, his voice calm.

Zhang Tianyou lay on the ground, defeated in just three seconds. Lin Kuang stood there nonchalantly, as if he hadn’t moved at all.

Witnessing this, Yang Wucheng’s mouth hung open in shock. The other eight members of the Seal Special Team stared blankly at the scene, looking as if their souls had been snatched away, their eyes fixed on Lin Kuang.

“Defeated… he was defeated?” Li Liang stammered, his jaw slack.

Beside him, Hu Yang nodded dumbly. “Yeah… defeated.” As the reality of the situation sank in, he swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing.

By now, Yang Wucheng had recovered from his shock, a bitter taste filling his mouth. Just moments ago, I thought Lin Kuang was being too arrogant and was even planning how to save face for him if he failed. But now I realize he wasn’t being arrogant at all; in fact, he was holding back immensely! I know that if Lin Kuang had truly wanted to win, Zhang Tianyou would have been defeated the moment he threw that first punch! He said three seconds? That wasn’t a show of disrespect—that was giving him an incredible amount of face! Otherwise, he would have been defeated in a single second!

It wasn’t just Yang Wucheng who came to this conclusion; Li Liang, Hu Yang, Sun Lei, and the remaining eight members of the Seal Special Team all snapped back to reality.

The eight soldiers felt a bitter taste in their mouths. This instructor is a damn monster!

Lin Kuang stood calmly, his gaze as sharp as a knife sweeping over the other eight members. “All of you, attack me together. Zhang Tianyou, get up!” he said indifferently.

His words stunned everyone again. It wasn’t that he told them all to attack him at once that shocked them, but that he had ordered Zhang Tianyou to get up. Zhang Tianyou had clearly been hit hard. Judging by the force of the blows, he should have been bedridden for three to five days, if not ten. Yet Lin Kuang was telling him to stand.

At that moment, fury was reignited in the hearts of the other eight team members. To them, Lin Kuang was simply tormenting their captain.

However, to their utter astonishment, Zhang Tianyou actually began to slowly push himself up from the ground.

“Don’t worry about me,” Zhang Tianyou said, forcing a bitter, self-mocking smile. “The instructor’s attacks looked severe, but he controlled his power perfectly and didn’t actually injure me. I’m just as I was before, almost completely unscathed.” I completely underestimated him and got too cocky. No matter how I look at it, I’m no match for him. He could crush me with ease.

Hearing Zhang Tianyou’s words, everyone’s expression shifted once more. For him to be unharmed after such ferocious attacks meant that Lin Kuang’s control over his strength had reached an unbelievably terrifying level.

With this thought, the gazes of the Seal Special Team and Yang Wucheng changed again. This man was unbelievably powerful.

“Alright, now you can all attack me. Remember, you are warriors, not weaklings!

“Even when facing a stronger opponent, you must have the mentality that if he tries to kill you, you’ll take a piece of him! You shouldn’t be like you are now, like cowards, like beaten dogs!”

Lin Kuang’s thunderous roar echoed through the training room again. His words struck a chord in everyone’s hearts. A long-lost fervor began to burn within them, and an indescribable drive pushed them to their feet.

At that moment, the warriors of the Seal Special Team seemed to transform into wolves—a pack of hungry wolves.
