Chapter 476 - 476 476 The Dark Dragon's Promotion Mechanism

476: Chapter 476: The Dark Dragon’s Promotion Mechanism 476: Chapter 476: The Dark Dragon’s Promotion Mechanism “Promotion mechanism?” Zhong Yuanliang frowned and said.

Seeing Zhong Yuanliang’s expression, Anlong laughed happily and then stood up, gesturing to Zhong Yuanliang, “Come with me, let me show you the promotion mechanism of the Dark Dragon!”

Zhong Yuanliang followed Anlong to an underground room; upon entering, he found out that it could not really be called a room—it was more like a training ground!

As Zhong Yuanliang stepped into the training ground, he saw a group of men and women with cold expressions staring at him, exuding a strong aura of killing intent, irrespective of gender.

As if they wanted to devour him alive.

“This is our Dark Dragon’s arena.

Here, there are no names, only codes.

The top-ranked person is number one, the second is number two, and so on,” Anlong explained.

“Since you just arrived, you are number one hundred fifty-seven!”

As soon as Anlong finished speaking, a man stepped forward and coldly said, “It’s one hundred fifty-six, actually, someone just died.”

“Then it’s one hundred fifty-six.

This is number one.

The only way to advance is to defeat or kill someone ranked higher than you!”

Upon hearing this, Zhong Yuanliang gasped.

This was truly a survival-of-the-fittest way to advance!

No one needed to whip you to train; the desire to survive would constantly remind you.

“During the promotion period, you will eat, live, and train here, so be careful at night someone might come at your neck with a knife.

But for now, you don’t have to worry, you’re the last one, and no one is aiming at you,” Anlong said, laughing.

“So, survive here!” Anlong finished, looked at the number one beside him, and said, “I’ll leave him to you.”

After speaking, Anlong turned and was about to leave.

Just before he reached the door, he turned around again and said to Zhong Yuanliang, “I forgot to mention, to truly join Dark Dragon, you must be ranked among the top twenty here!

Also, if you can’t advance to before the fiftieth rank, you can’t leave this place!”

“Qin Han had already informed me about your arrival.

As for you… your life or death does not matter!” After saying that, Anlong left the training ground without looking back.

Until Anlong left the training ground, Zhong Yuanliang was still digesting what Anlong had just said.

“Snap!”

Zhong Yuanliang felt a heavy slap on his head.

“Sharpen up your spirit, and do not lose your life needlessly.

Don’t think about taking shortcuts.

Everyone here must challenge someone every three days!” Number One said coldly.

Zhong Yuanliang, having never been treated this way, glared at Number One in rage, ready to strike!

“I forgot to tell you, here, if you want to start a fight, you have to challenge first!” Number One said, smiling at Zhong Yuanliang.

“I challenge you!” Zhong Yuanliang said through gritted teeth.

“Oh, oh!

Come see, the new guy wants to challenge Number One!” No sooner had Zhong Yuanliang spoken than shouts erupted throughout the training ground.

“Take him down!

Number One!”

“This kid really doesn’t know his own limits, ha!”

“Another ignorant young man, hahahaha, look at his eyes, he even knows how to be angry!”

Number One looked at Zhong Yuanliang somewhat oddly and said, “Are you sure?”

“Certain!” Zhong Yuanliang said coldly, ready to die rather than lose the pride of the Zhong family!

The two came to the center of the training ground, and Zhong Yuanliang assumed his stance, bursting forth with energy!

“Yo, he’s a Martial Artist at the peak of martial arts!

But this aura is just for show anyway!” Number One scoffed.

“Chaos Six Extremes!” Zhong Yuanliang shouted and charged at Number One.

“Bang!” Zhong Yuanliang was fiercely slapped down onto the combat platform by Number One, unable to get up.

Just one move!

Only one move!

Zhong Yuanliang inwardly cried out!

Qin Han struggled several times to stand up, but ultimately, he did not stand up.

“Stop forcing yourself.

Since you’re new here, I’ll let you go this time.

Go back and heal properly.

Remember, this place is different from the outside.

Keep your family’s young master temper in check and don’t bare your teeth at every turn!

You need to learn to be a submissive dog!” Number One said coldly.

After hearing Number One’s words, Zhong Yuanliang gritted his teeth and finally staggered to his feet, walking step by step towards Number One.

A hint of approval appeared in Number One’s eyes; he obviously knew how much force he had used just now.

Unexpectedly, it only took a few words to stimulate Zhong Yuanliang’s potential and get him to stand up.

However, even though Zhong Yuanliang stood up, the result was still the same!

Zhong Yuanliang once again made intimate contact with the ground of the sparring platform.

However, to everyone’s surprise, after a brief recovery, Zhong Yuanliang stood up again.

And the force of Number One’s strikes grew heavier with each one…

“Clang!” Zhong Yuanliang couldn’t remember how many times Number One had knocked him down, but his mind was focused on one thought: the momentum of the Zhong family must not be lost!

The onlookers were no longer ridiculing Zhong Yuanliang, but instead looked at him with faces full of respect.

Standing up once might be due to rage, standing up twice might be due to unwillingness, standing up three or four times, that’s a matter of perseverance.

Eventually, Zhong Yuanliang’s consciousness began to blur.

He didn’t even know how he left the challenge platform, but he was the first person since the founding of the Dark Dragon to be respected despite being last in the training grounds.

Thinking of this brought a smile to Zhong Yuanliang’s face.

In just twenty days, Zhong Yuanliang had risen to rank five!

Even the Dark Dragon regarded Zhong Yuanliang with new respect and even relayed to him what Qin Han had initially instructed: “You can train to death, but don’t break the man.”

This meant that Zhong Yuanliang was indeed here to train, but he also had a life-saving talisman!

Looking at the Dark Dragon opposite him, Zhong Yuanliang finally couldn’t help but ask, “Boss, may I ask what your relationship is with my shishu (honorary uncle)?”

Upon hearing this, the Dark Dragon fell into thought.

After a long while, the Dark Dragon said, “Actually, my acquaintance with Qin Han was purely coincidental!”

“One day, I was being pursued and ran into the forest, where I met Qin Han picking herbs.

He helped me repel the pursuers and treated my injuries.”

The Dark Dragon’s words were brief, but to Zhong Yuanliang, they were incredibly thrilling.

If it hadn’t been for coming to Dark Dragon, Zhong Yuanliang wouldn’t have understood the caliber of martial artist pursuing the Dark Dragon.

To think that it was all casually dealt with by his shishu?

How could Zhong Yuanliang not be shocked?

“You, you still know too little about your shishu!

From what I know, in China, perhaps only the hidden sects can contend with him.

Ordinary martial artists probably can’t even withstand one of his moves!

Even I probably can only manage a draw with him, and if it were a fight to the death, I likely wouldn’t stand a chance against him!”

Dark Dragon dropped another bombshell.

At that moment, only one phrase echoed in Zhong Yuanliang’s mind: one move…

Back then, he had been deceived into the medical hall by his shishu’s single move.

“Do you know how many people your shishu has killed?” Dark Dragon suddenly asked with a smile.

“How many?” Zhong Yuanliang asked, puzzled.

Dark Dragon gestured with his hand towards Zhong Yuanliang.

Zhong Yuanliang furrowed his brows, tentatively asking, “Five hundred?”

Ignoring Zhong Yuanliang, Dark Dragon directly left the office, leaving a bewildered Zhong Yuanliang behind.
