The King of Special Warfare

Chapter 108 Fate

When Li Tianlan woke up from the imaginary and charming dream, the day had already broken out of the window.

It was overcast, likely to rain.

Li Tianlan cuddled a white and tender body in his arms, kind of lost in thought.

Wang Yuetong did not leave.

And he also openly entered the bedroom.

Overnight, a single man and a single woman, in the one room, on the one bed, and with one quilt, had done all the things basically except what should have happened most.

But for today’s Actual Combat Lesson required the most perfect physical condition, what should have happened most and least perhaps had become a fact last night.

The Actual Combat Lesson.

Li Tianlan finally woke up from a trance.

In the Sky Academy, the institution was extremely efficient and simple, which was roughly divided into the Educational Administration, Political Department, Tactical Advice Department, Maneuver Department, Logistics Administration, and a library. Literally speaking, it was not difficult to find out the roles of these departments and the relatively simple environment of the Sky Academy through these departments.

This was the place where talents were trained for Special Warfare System in Zhongzhou State. As the institution was efficient and simple, there would be less intrigue and some teachers would have more energy to arrange the courses in the Academy.

Therefore, comparing with the simple institution in the Sky Academy, the courses in the academy looked extremely complicated.

The thirteen courses covered almost all the skills needed in the Special Warfare System.

Mechanical Manipulation, Gun Manipulation, Physical Fitness Training, Tactical Study, Latent Camouflage, Sniping Lesson, Investigation Lesson, Assassination Lesson, Security, Electronic Invasion, Torture Meditation, Intelligence Collection and Analysis, and Actual Combat Lesson.

Strictly speaking, none of the thirteen courses was chicken rib. All the lessons were extremely important, among which, the Actual Combat Lesson was the most special one.

Just because it was an actual combat.

The other lessons, even the gloomy and mysterious Assassination Lesson, mostly based on demonstration and guidance. Even if a combat was needed, it would just be a maneuver.

However, the Actual Combat Lesson was a bald fight and an all-out battle between the trainees.

Under normal circumstances, such a course should not appear too early at all. At the very least, after the Sky Academy had a general understanding of all the students, they would try to start an Actual Combat Lesson to verify the students’ learning achievements and the instructors would point out everyone’s shortcomings so as to help them improve pertinently.

Li Tianlan heard from Wang Yuetong that the several generations of freshmen previously in the Sky Academy were basically like that.

But for this generation of freshmen, the first lesson was an Actual Combat Lesson after the school began.

Such an arrangement meant the Sky Academy had tightened the nerve of every student from the very beginning, making the competitive atmosphere in the academy more intense than ever.

Li Tianlan was lost in thought when he recalled another news that Wang Yuetong said shakily as they were deeply in love last night.

According to Wang Yuetong, the first lesson of Actual Combat Lesson was just a beginning. Later, the Sky Academy would soon have some other lists one after another, such as the list of academy combat capability, credit list, and potentiality list. It was said that the Sky Academy and the Deep-sea Academy were still trying to promote the elimination system and the life-and-death arena, but this proposal had been shelved in Kunlun City.

But it could be seen from all kinds of news that the Sky Academy and the Deep-sea Academy seemed to have reached a secret agreement. That was why this year’s reform had become so radical. Although the elimination system and the life-and-death arena had been shelved, a new round of non-stop competition was bound to be triggered when each list came out.

Those who could come to the Special Warfare Academy were all strong performers. No one was willing to fall behind others.

Li Tianlan breathed deeply and then exhaled slowly.

The Actual Combat Lesson was based on the class as a unit. And the fifty people in Li Tianlan’s class were almost the strongest in the whole academy. Li Tianlan had seen the materials of many of them through Qin Weibai. But for that he was back to the peak of the Qi-controlling Realm again yesterday, it would be really difficult to deal with such an actual combat.

Wang Yuetong, who was tucking up in Li Tianlan’s arms, moved and opened her eyes in a daze with her long eyelashes quivered.

“Awake?”

Li Tianlan had a glance at her, smiled, and said in a natural tone, “Get ready to get up. It’s time for class.”

Wang Yuetong, who slept with a man for the first time, felt peaceful and joyful in her heart with a little instinctive shyness. She moved her body gently, took away Li Tianlan’s hand from her hip, and whispered with a smile, “Your hand is very bad.”

Li Tianlan pretended to cough, his eyes sparkling. “You are such a fascinating stunner. But for the Actual Combat Lesson today, I have conquered you last night.” Feeling her exquisite and charming body hiding in the quilt, Li Tianlan was really regretful and expectant in his heart. The so-called absent-minded was nothing more than this.

“You didn’t seize the chance I gave to you before and it’s no use regretting now.”

Wang Yuetong giggled, pointed to the wardrobe beside the bed with her little ruddy mouth clamped, and said, “Senior Brother, help me grab my underwear. Take the one with the color you like.”

Li Tianlan said “Hum” and did not deliberately choose. He opened a small box which was especially for underwear in the wardrobe, took a black set to bed, and said with a smile, “Do you want me to help you wear them?”

Wang Yuetong, with a little ruddy face, gave him a dirty look and whispered, “Haven’t you bullied me enough last night? I really hate you.”

She reached out a hand and gave Li Tianlan a pinch. Her eyes were bitter as if she was really wronged.

Li Tianlan was embarrassed. When he thought carefully about what he did last night, he seemed to have gone a little far. In some ways, the little princess of the Wang family of Beihai was indeed bullied by him last night.

Wang Yuetong bit her lip and gave Li Tianlan another pinch. Suddenly she chuckled and said, “Do you like women kneeling in front of you so much? Brother-in-law? Has my sister spoiled you?”

Li Tianlan was able to handle the private topic between the little couples. However, as long as he thought of talking about Qin Weibai with Wang Yuetong in bed, he just felt uncomfortable. He got up from the bed, quickly changed into his camouflage clothing, and abruptly changed the subject, “I’ll go out and have a look. It’s about time. You should get dressed and hurry out.”

Wang Yuetong sat on the bed, giggling. Her eyes were infatuated when she looked at the back of Li Tianlan.

She had never thought that this man was so domineering in bed, totally a tyrant who went on his own way. Although she was bullied by him last night and felt a little wronged, Wang Yuetong did not feel any discomfort as she reflected on it. She silently thought about it, her face getting redder and redder. She sat on the bed and did not move for a long time.

In the living room, Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng had already got up. The two of them stood in front of the plaque again, carefully studying the sword comprehension contained in the three words of “East Emperor Palace”. A sound came from the kitchen from time to time. Yu Qingyan and Ye Huayu were busy in the kitchen.

On the first day of the establishment of the East Emperor Palace, the core six people all stayed here last night. There were three bedrooms, one for Li Tianlan and Wang Yuetong, one for Yu Qingyan and Ye Huayu, the other one for Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng, which was just right for them.

“Good morning.”

Li Tianlan took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, saying hello casually.

As Li Baitian shook his hands slightly, the sword comprehension was all over the living room. When a little heat abruptly appeared, Li Tianlan’s cigarette had been lit, making the room smoggy.

Li Baitian looked calm and said in an unfathomable tone, “Good morning.”

Faced with such a pretentious technique, Ning Qiancheng, who was known as Drunbility Cheng, might lower his flag. Li Tianlan did not mind but smiled surprised and said, “Have you entered the Fire-flaming Realm?”

“Of course. It was just the Fire-flaming Realm, which is easy to enter as long as you want. If I’m given little more time, I’ll enter the Thunder-shocking Realm, even the Invincibility Realm.”

Li Baitian was confident with a proud expression.

“You are just pretentious. Since you’re so talented, aren’t you still slower than me?”

Ning Qiancheng said with a face of contempt, “Thunder-shocking Realm? If it weren’t for the words from Tianlan, you won’t know how long you will be stuck in this Fire-flaming Realm, will you?”

Li Tianlan shook his hand and interrupted the bicker between the two people. He smiled and said, “Anyway, it is good to have a breakthrough before the Actual Combat Lesson starts. Today, let’s fight for a good ranking.”

The student who got a first in the Actual Combat Lesson would be awarded fifteen credits. The second to the fifth would be awarded ten credits. And the top10 would be awarded three credits. Li Tianlan must strive for these credits.

“Well, I hope Baitian and I will meet some tough opponents and we will create some trouble for them first. Tianlan, you just need to try your best to score. Baitian and I just need to graduate. But as for East Emperor Palace, could it really become East Emperor Palace? It depends on Tianlan’s credit, which is the most important thing.”

Ning Qiancheng nodded and said.

Li Baitian smirked and winked toward the bedroom. “I’m afraid that Tianlan consumed too much strength last night, so I’m wondering if he has the strength to fight with the opponents today. Night hours in spring are extremely precious. It’s okay. It doesn’t matter even if he loses today. We all understand.”

“Damn your understanding!”

Li Tianlan swore and laughed, rubbing Li Baitian’s hair.

“Breakfast is ready.”

Yu Qingyan’s sweet voice sounded in the kitchen, and the dining room had already been full of aroma.

Li Tianlan glanced at Ning Qiancheng and had an idea in his heart. He suddenly whispered, “Qiancheng, find a way to conquer Qingyan. She is a treasure. When we live together, we can eat and drink well every day. Gee...”

“Drop dead. Fu*k you. That will be my wife in the future, not a nanny.

“...”

The Actual Combat Lesson started at 7:30 am and ended at 7:00 pm. It lasted nearly 12 hours. They lost no time rushing to training ground No.1 after breakfast.

The training ground’s area was not big. It was a piece of flat ground with an area of about three hectares. Around twenty high platforms were laid on it, clean and tidy, looking very solemn. This was not only the place for the Actual Combat Lesson of the academy. If the main venue for the maneuver of the two academies was in the Sky College, this would also be the place where the elites of the two academies competed with each other. Therefore, there was also a rostrum at a short distance from the training ground. When they arrived, a solemn and silent formation had already been formed in front of the ground No.1 and a dark-faced middle-aged man was standing still in front of the formation.

“We’re not late.”

Said Ning Qiancheng as he glanced at his watch.

Li Tianlan nodded his head, walked over quickly, and said as he stood straight, “Sir!”

The dark-faced man in front of the formation gave him a cold look and looked down at his watch. Without any other words, he just said in a cold voice, “Take your posts!”

Li Tianlan replied, “Yes, Sir”. The six of them stood neatly in the last row.

“Okay.”

The dark-faced man glanced at the formation in front of him and said in a cold tone, “Since everyone is here, let me introduce myself. My name is Yang Mengjiang, the group leader of the course team of the Actual Combat Lesson and also your teacher of the Actual Combat Lesson in the next three years.”

He paused for a while and continued saying, “I don’t want to say any nonsense. The Sky Academy attaches great importance to battle strength, so the Actual Combat Lesson is one of the most important courses in the Sky Academy. It has high credits and high intensity. In the actual combat, injuries are inevitable. Therefore, I advise you to give up if you can’t hold up, and the price is only one credit. Do you have anything to say?”

Everyone was silent.

Yang Mengjiang waited for a few seconds, waved his hand directly, and grabbed a small box in the air, “Since everyone has no opinion, let’s draw lots. From now on, I will carefully observe every battle and point out the deficiencies if any. This lesson is long, so we can only use platform No.2.”

Li Tianlan silently watched the group leader of the Actual Combat Lesson. “Since Yang Mengjiang is able to take this position, his state is beyond any doubt. At least, he is a newcomer to the Thunder-shocking Realm. And he looks about 40 years old or even younger. Combining his age with his state, it’s quite rare. The most important thing is that this person seems to speak and act both very simple and straightforward, emanating a soldier’s decisiveness and leaving a favorable impression to people.”

“Senior Brother, he is one of the key figures in Kunlun City and the confidant of Gu Yunxia. I heard from my Second Uncle that if Liu Xiuwei didn’t take quick actions, the position of deputy director of teaching would belong to Yang Mengjiang. After Liu Xiuwei died, the new candidate recommended by the Sky Academy was also Yang Mengjiang.”

Wang Yuetong whispered, “He has a military background. At the beginning, he was just an ordinary special force. He has been spending twenty years reaching the Sight-glass state of the Thunder-shocking Realm step by step. His strength is tempered by himself indeed. Although he doesn’t grasp many unique techniques, he has firm willpower and strong actual combat ability. It’s definitely the best use of the talent to let him be the group leader of the Actual Combat Lesson.”

Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes slightly and said “Hum”.

The box in Yang Mengjiang’s hands was passed on in the formation and soon, it was passed to Li Tianlan.

Li Tianlan casually drew a number and opened it. It was No.26.

In front of the formation, Yang Mengjiang’s voice had sounded again. “Let’s not waste our time. I’ll just speak out some numbers at random and those who are called will come on the stage directly. No nonsense. This is an Actual Combat Lesson. Just do it if you can. Just come off if you can’t. No.3 and No.5, come on the stage!”

No.3.

No.5.

Li Tianlan hadn’t felt anything wrong yet, but Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng beside him went rigid at the same time.

“I...I damn it. There is an inside story here, absolutely an inside story. My God!”

Li Baitian tried to lower his voice and said incoherently.

He opened the number in his hand. It was regularly written “No.3” on it.

But beside him, Ning Qiancheng’s number was 5.

It was the first battle of the first Actual Combat Lesson in the Sky Academy.

Ning Qiancheng versus Li Baitian.

Li Tianlan shook his head with a wry smile and said, “This is a fate.”
