Chapter 600: Chapter 600: Do You Have the Face to Live in This World?

This scene was unexpected by everyone.

The soldiers from Dragon Hidden and Dragon Shadow had been eating and drinking, but now they all quieted down, turning their heads to look at Tang Zhong.

The entire area fell silent.

Zhao Qiang and the others had never imagined such a scene would unfold; Tang Zhong’s actions clearly showed he didn’t regard them at all.

"What do you mean by this?" Zhao Qiang asked as he looked at Tang Zhong.

"I said this place is now Long Wu’s turf. Do you have an objection?" Tang Zhong said coldly.

To him, since he was now the Chief Instructor of Long Wu, it was his responsibility to protect any interests of Long Wu, and to never allow anyone to bully Long Wu.

Because Long Wu was his.

Meanwhile, outside the dining hall, Gu Jin led the remaining seven members of Long Wu to the entrance, just in time to witness the scene unfolding before them.

"Instructor Tang, we are here," Gu Jin said.

Seeing the seven people, Tang Zhong pointed to the table in front and said, "Sit."

"What?" Gu Jin was completely stunned.

Those from Long Wu had never set foot in this place before.

At this moment, upon Tang Zhong’s invitation, the seven were hesitant, but after seeing the determined look in Tang Zhong’s eyes, they walked in and sat next to Tang Zhong without uttering a word.

After they were seated, Tang Zhong immediately said, "Eat!"

"Ah?" Gu Jin and the others were astonished.

After being with Long Wu for so long, honestly, they had never had the chance to participate in the activities of Dragon Hidden and Dragon Shadow, and it had been a long time since they’d had a meaty meal. Looking at the food on the table, they all swallowed hard.

"No need to wait, eat if you want to!" Tang Zhong continued.

"Then let’s eat!" Gu Jin said, grabbing the chopsticks and starting to eat. With the Chief Instructor there, they forgot everything else and prioritized eating.

Zhao Qiang, among others around them, looked at this scene, and his face suddenly turned sour. Dragon Hidden had been the best among the three units for many years, and this man who had just become the Chief Instructor dared to challenge him like this. He coldly stared at Tang Zhong and said, "Supreme Commander Tang, doing this is somewhat inappropriate, isn’t it? Our Dragon Hidden members have already taken their seats!"

"Then what?" Tang Zhong asked coldly.

"There’s no ’then.’ This place belongs to Dragon Hidden. It’s hardly appropriate for you Long Wu to take over!" Zhao Qiang said.

"Oh!" Tang Zhong nodded.

"So, have your people leave. This isn’t the place for them!" Zhao Qiang said.

"You mean to say your people should come here?" Tang Zhong asked.

"Of course, that’s right. We, the people of Dragon Hidden, are like the chosen sons of heaven, how can we be compared to these Long Wu weaklings? Moreover, we from Dragon Hidden have long since arrived here," Zhao Qiang said.

"Is that so?" Tang Zhong asked with a smile.

Zhao Qiang couldn’t help but shiver, feeling as though he had been targeted by a wild beast.

Hearing Zhao Qiang’s words, several Dragon Hidden members immediately followed, "Supreme Commander Tang, by doing this, you’re breaking the rules of Dragon Shadow, Dragon Hidden, and Long Wu!"

At that moment, Tang Zhong rose slowly, walked up to those Dragon Hidden members, and said, "Rules? You few should go to the hospital to have your faces treated!"

The men were taken aback by his words, not understanding why Tang Zhong would suddenly say such a thing.

Just then, they saw Tang Zhong’s hand sweep out in a slap.

Slap, slap, slap, slap!

The crisp sound of slaps echoed.

They saw the Dragon Hidden members sent flying, landing on the ground, howling in pain as they clutched their faces.

This scene had been unexpected by everyone.

Tang Zhong actually dared to hit someone.

"What... what are you doing?" Zhao Qiang bellowed.

"Didn’t you say this place was full? That people from Long Wu couldn’t come? Now, these few from Dragon Hidden have injured faces, isn’t it time to check on them? That would free up some space, wouldn’t it?" Tang Zhong said with a smile.

No matter how the former Chief Instructor of Long Wu had treated its members, when Tang Zhong held the position, if he was Chief Instructor for even a day, then the members of Long Wu couldn’t be treated unfairly!

"You..." Zhao Qiang’s face suddenly became ugly.

Openly hitting his men was essentially a slap in his face.

Zhao Qiang forcibly suppressed the anger within him, knowing that their actions had greatly overstepped. After all, this was Tang Zhong’s welcoming ceremony. But now, he could only hold back, considering that previously, whatever the Chief Instructor of Long Wu said was law, and the Chief Instructor wouldn’t dare to even let out a fart. But now, this man’s outrageous behavior was beyond their expectations; clearly, he wasn’t someone easy to handle.

Thus, Zhao Qiang turned to the soldiers from Dragon Hidden covering their faces and said, "Since your faces are injured, you should withdraw first!"

"Yes!" The struck disciples of Dragon Hidden answered and quickly left.

Only then did Zhao Qiang announce to the whole assembly, "Now, the welcoming ceremony will continue!"

Everyone resumed eating and drinking.

But for the people of Dragon Hidden, their earlier pleasure was gone.

Conversely, the people of Long Wu were eating more heartily than anyone else.

They had never attended such a ceremony before, but this time, they had attended under Chief Instructor Tang’s leadership. They were incredibly moved by Tang Zhong. Even though Tang Zhong had been harsh, they had endured it. In the future, no matter what happened, they had chosen to follow Tang Zhong.

After the third round of drinking.

The so-called welcoming ceremony didn’t include any welcoming words for Tang Zhong.

At the end, after everything was sorted, people began to clean up as if a meeting was about to be held.

Upon seeing this, Gu Jin’s expression changed subtly, "This is bad!"

"What kind of bad?" Tang Zhong asked after hearing this.

"I heard that at this time, it’s always the Chief Instructor who holds a meeting to test the martial practice results of the factions through competition!" Gu Jin said.

"You mean, a competition?" Tang Zhong said.

"Yes!" Gu Jin replied.

"Which place does Long Wu always get in these competitions?" Tang Zhong asked.

"Last place..." Gu Jin said somewhat embarrassedly.

"That... won’t happen anymore!" Tang Zhong said, laughing.

At this moment, Zhao Qiang and Chen Huo, the two from Dragon Shadow, were ready and surrounded a table with Tang Zhong.

Zhao Qiang was the most satisfied at this moment, as their Dragon Hidden were the strongest among the three factions, having been the champions for eight consecutive months. He looked at Tang Zhong with great pride. Tang Zhong had hit his men, and Zhao Qiang couldn’t swallow that slight.

So he spoke up, "Now, while everyone is here together, let’s discuss how to compete. Or how about this, let’s not compete this time and just give out the awards. After all, Dragon Hidden has always been first, Dragon Shadow second, and Long Wu last!"

After speaking, Zhao Qiang looked at Tang Zhong, wanting to humiliate him thoroughly. Long Wu had so few people left, and Tang Zhong had even driven some away. He wanted to deeply shame them.

The leader of Dragon Shadow, Chen Huo, didn’t really care and said, "That’s fine. After all, we’ve been the eternal runners-up; we really wouldn’t refuse that."

Hearing Chen Huo’s words, Zhao Qiang, without even asking Tang Zhong’s opinion, immediately said, "Then let’s proceed with the award ceremony now!"

As far as he was concerned, Tang Zhong had no options left. Zhao Qiang knew that with only seven people in Long Wu, competing was pointless. He wanted Tang Zhong to realize his own situation, know his place, understand the strength of Dragon Hidden, know his own worth, and understand what he should and shouldn’t do in the future.

Just when everyone thought Tang Zhong would remain silent and choose not to compete, Tang Zhong spoke up.

"Why not compete?"

As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned.

Zhao Qiang sneered in response, "Because Long Wu has always been the last! So there’s no need to compete. Do you understand now, or do I need to spell it out even more clearly? Thirty-something of you can’t obtain good results; how can the current seven? I think it’s better to go to the Supreme Commander and have Long Wu erased altogether. Such a trash organization can’t be mentioned in the same breath as Dragon Hidden and Dragon Shadow anymore!"

After hearing this, Tang Zhong just smiled lightly and said, "You keep saying Long Wu is always last, but if Long Wu takes first place in the competition from now on, will you still have the face to live in this world?"
