Ace Of Terrans

Shi Lang did not understand what Jenkins meant, he heard Archie Arkham’s voice, “Major Lang, the new opponent is Cui Shino, a sword expert and she is said to have hunted a lot of famous beasts, not only on the federation but on the colonies as well. She is the best hunter in the federation, and she only uses her sword to fight the beasts. Do you think Jenkins can win?”

The young man looked at the lady who stood with a hand gripping the sword and said, “I have no idea if he can win this fight or not, but I know that he still has a card up his sleeves. He will rather lose than give up.”

Archie Arkham nodded and then they began to focus on the battle in front of them.

…

Jenkins gazed at the fleet general in front of him and bowed his head to show respect, he said, “General Cui, please advise.”

Cui Shino was surprised for a moment, and then she smiled. She said, “I will not go easy on you.”

“I won’t have it any other way.”, said Cui Shino as she bowed her head to return his gesture of respect.

Cui Shino was thirty years old at this moment, and comparatively young when it came to the old geezers behind her. She was sent ahead in this stage to take down Jenkins, the old people were now aware that this younger generation was not easy to deal with and their plan to assert dominance was being jeopardized by these guys.

The two people stood opposite each other and they assumed a fighting stance, and the computer system said, “Fourth battle, Fleet General Cui versus, Captain Edwards. Battle Begin”

That said, the predictive picture did not appear in front of everyone, Jenkins did not rush in, he was still gazing at the lady and nothing else mattered to him, however, suddenly he sensed a strong wind whistling past his ear, and he rolled to the side in a blink.

Cui Shino appeared in his spot and with a slight smile, she said, “You are faster than I thought you would be.”

Jenkins stood up but he did not reply. He did not dare to lower his guard against this lady. The pace of the fight was being controlled by the general, and Jenkins was like a prey hunted by her. He was slowly being pushed into the corner.

…

Outside the field, Shi Lang and the others picked up a lot of murmurs from the crowd. They were all pointing fingers at Jenkins. Quinn wanted to shut them up a lot of times, but Shi Lang’s glare stopped her. Rosa said, “The fight will end in the next five minutes.”

Shi Lang looked at the stage and said with a smirk, “Head Teacher, your prediction is correct, but the winner will be Jenkins.”

Everyone who heard his words wanted to ask him if he was looking at things from a professional point of view. Jenkins was standing on the field with a ragged breath, his body was covered with various shallow cuts. Cui Shino did not go easy on him, but he dodged the attacks at a very close time.

Cui Shino looked at him and said, “You stood up against me for twelve minutes, it has been a very long time since that has happened. You are strong, but…”

She wanted to say not strong enough but Jenkins cut her off, “Come.”

Cui Shino raised her eyebrows, and took up her sword, when she was about to attack, she saw Jenkins changing his stance. The change was not only his stance but his aura, his gaze.

Everything has gone through a strong change, the sharp contrast was that if he was looking controlled first, now he looked very much like a berserk beast ready to go on a rampage. Cui Shino was surprised for a second. However, she realized what was happening.

She did not expect this guy to behave like a cornered beast, his energy was all in line with a beast that was about to put up a desperate struggle. She heard a whisper, “Tiger Sutra.”

Tiger Sutra was something Shi Lang had taught to him in the one year they all spent on Arcadia. What was even more, the effect of the spirit energy made this skill even more devastating. You can think of it as a feral beast on steroids.

When Shi Lang had fought with him in the assessment battle, he did not use the augmentation of the spiritual energy. Cui Shino did not understand the true effect here and said, “It is futile to struggle.”

Jenkins did not hesitate and lowering his shoulders, he moved forward. He was so fast that he had left an afterimage at the spot. Cui Shino sensed danger and wanted to retreat, but she was still one second too late. The people saw a horizontal cut appear on her abdomen.

The cut wound was not deep, and she was bleeding profusely. However, that was not the end, Jenkins appeared behind her, and slashed his claws at her back. Cui Shino tried to turn around and deflect the attack with her blade, but Jenkins had infused spirit energy in his attacks and left a horrific mark again.

Cui Shino was overwhelmed by the burning sensation of the attack on her back. She was a nine-star Terran, and controlling bleeding was an easy task for her, but for how long can she do it? That was unknown. Jenkins was going berserk on her, it was as if he wanted to tear her up to shreds.

The blood loss and pain had taken a toll on her and Cui Shino was unable to stand firm. Suddenly, Jenkins appeared in front of her and took hold of her neck. He did not mind leaving a few marks on it. He leaned in close to her pretty face and let out a roar in her ear.

Let alone the whole world, even the first general was shocked at this. He did not expect his son to act like this. Shi Lang said, “If he tried to attack the general anymore, I will call it in.”

Amy and Quinn nodded. Rosa and Archie Arkham were confused but they saw Jenkins leaning in on the General, and he whispered something in her ear. The lady snapped out of her daze and glared at him. The computer announced, “Contender Cui Shino has lost a lot of blood and thus she will be retiring from the battle. Fourth Mock Battle, Winner, Captain Jenkins.”

The people were all shocked to see this outcome. Jenkins had fought with the lady for twenty-five minutes, and now, after the announcement, Jenkins let go of the lady and fell to the ground. The medics all moved at a quick speed and brought the two to medical attention.

The first general said, “Do you need a break or shall we continue.”

Shi Lang replied, “We will continue, Sir.”

The general nodded and said, “The next opponent is…”

“Excuse me, Sir.”, Quinn interrupted the man’s speech. Shi Lang cast a gaze at her and Quinn said, “Sir, If you would allow us, with all due respect, Captain Amelia and I, would like to face, four enemies at the same time. Our special abilities are different, and again with all due respect, it is to give you all a fair chance at holding us down.”

The words sent out an uproar, and not only them but even Shi Lang was shocked to see this, he did not expect the two girls to be doing something like this. He wanted to pursue them to be quiet, and follow the original rules when a general from the other side said, “You say that you respect us, but such a challenge is an act of disrespect.”

Quinn replied, “I apologize, but it was just a suggestion that could save a lot of time. If the council does not agree, then we can follow the old rules?’

The first General said, “You have courage, I will allow you to go forward with this method.”

The crowd was shocked, and the old people standing behind the first general raised a question, “Why do we have to entertain these green horns?”

General Edward replied, “The reason is simple, appearance. We are the elders, we allowed this mock battle, then these so-called ‘greenhorns’ took down four of the best in the whole federation. If we deny them this request, then can we be called the elite? That child over there has stated that their abilities are special, that means they are confident in taking you four on at the same time. As the older generation, be magnanimous and encourage them, but not without breaking them. If you think they are being disrespectful then remember, they will be exiled from the federation, that is the best revenge.”

This monologue picked up the spirits of the older people. They turned their gazes at the two girls and took off their coats, they were not going to be easy on these girls.
