The King of Special Warfare

…

Before the first group of elites of the Deep-sea Academy entered the Sky Academy by taking a deluxe coach, the list of the elites had already been spread throughout Zhongzhou State.

…

The maneuver between the two academies was a great event. Not to mention the final maneuver, at least one great director and one councilor of the Decision Making Committee assumed personal command on the spot for the first two maneuvers.

Besides this, some big shots of the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State and some martial experts among the people would also be invited to the scene.

The total number of students was less than 5,000, but quite a few of the graduates would become the core force of the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State in the next few years, and the most excellent students would become decisive figures.

This could be called a maneuver, but actually, it was an opportunity to inject fresh blood into the military and the Special Warfare System of Zhongzhou State. So, no one was indifferent toward it.

Furthermore, the year of graduation was a very special one.

In terms of combat capability, a few young experts could even match some old folks before graduation in this class. Meanwhile, there were historical grievances among the Wang family of Beihai, Kunlun City, Sigh City, the Dongcheng Clan, Mount Shu, the Academics, the Prince Group, and the Li family…

Over three years had passed by.

The forces had long been entangled in silence.

Each of them could affect the general situation of Zhongzhou State, or at the very least, could affect the local situation.

The final maneuver between the two academies looked like the striving for a decisive victory by a group of young men. However, everybody knew that whether it was peace or war, game or compromise, advance or retreat, up or down among the superpowers, after the final maneuver, everything would have a clear signal.

No one would believe that there would be no accident in the final maneuver.

However, nobody expected that accidents would happen before the maneuver.

Li Tianlan, who had disappeared for three years, returned to the Sky Academy.

Wang Shengxiao, the heir of the Wang family of Beihai, joined the Phantom Palace.

Gu Hanshan, the heir of the Kunlun City, took over the Three Thousand World.

The list was delivered at the fastest speed in Zhongzhou State.

The list was short, and only two names were added to the list.

However, everyone who saw the list got emotional inside.

Li Tianlan. Wang Shengxiao. Gu Hanshan.

The other names, including Song Ci and Jiang Shangyu, were overshadowed by these three names.

The three men represented so many grievances.

It was not that anyone had imagined that they could coexist in Zhongzhou State, but after all, a fantasy is just a fantasy.

This time, they all were well prepared.

Wang Shengxiao had Song Ci and the Phantom Palace by his side.

Gu Hanshan had Jiang Shangyu and the Three Thousand World around him.

Li Tianlan…

He now seemed to only have himself.

It was not really against the rules, and at least it did not go beyond the bottom line.

The Phantom Palace and the Three Thousand World were subordinate to the two academies, but they were put under the names of two others.

…

They recommended outstanding students for the two academies in the name of these two departments. It was always feasible, and the two academies were hard to refuse.

Moreover, the School Master of the Deep-sea Academy, Chen Songlin, was one of the core force of the Special Warfare Group, so he would not refuse.

Admission procedures could be completed quickly.

The most important thing was that both Wang Shengxiao and Gu Hanshan were very young. Therefore, it did not look bad that young experts had joined the young forces.

Theoretically, it was possible to make several experts of the Half-Step Invincible Realm join the two superpowers when the Wang family of Beihai cooperated with Kunlun City to stop Li Tianlan.

However, it was clear that they were not so shameless.

Li Tianlan soon received a phone call from Li Baitian.

He did not say much. After learning the news, he silently hung up the phone.

Wang Shengxiao.

Gu Hanshan.

They wanted to oppress him by force.

Li Tianlan could not copy such an approach.

Although the East Emperor Palace separated itself from the Thunder, it was still under the lead of Huating Special Operations Bureau and the Southeast Special Warfare Headquarters.

Even if he could find an expert and convince Zhuang Huayang, the Southeast Special Warfare Headquarters would not agree.

Therefore, he could only rely on himself.

The list spread rapidly in Zhongzhou State.

It caused a sensation—everyone was looking forward to the most powerful competition of the young generation of Zhongzhou State.

It was equivalent to the final battle of Heaven Capital.

This was the most direct competition for the young Heavenly Sons in Zhongzhou State.

They gave tit for tat and lived a cat-and-dog life.

…

The logistics director of the Sky Academy, Zhao Hefei, received the first group of elites from the Deep-sea Academy.

As the trusted subordinate promoted by Gu Yunxia, Gu Yunxia’s death had made a strong impact on Zhao Hefei.

However, he struggled to do his own task.

His task was to lead the elites from the Deep-sea Academy to visit the Sky Academy. It was simple.

The final maneuver was different from that of the previous two years.

The annual maneuver provided the stage for displaying personal strength.

The two academies only selected a few of the most elite students.

It was less than 200 people. They were fighting one-to-one.

The final maneuver was countless times more complicated.

It was a maneuver for all the students and it got most of the disciplines in the two academies involved. It also needed teamwork, which was complicated and detailed.

Until then, numerous areas of the Sky Academy would become the maneuver area. The first group of elites reached the Sky Academy one month in advance after familiarizing themselves with the terrain.

The first group of elites from the Deep-sea Academy had 50 in total. Zhao Hefei took them on and off in the academy and looked at all the sites for the maneuver.

Tactical strategies, teamwork, and camouflage were integrated. The sites included a simulated mountain forest in the west of the Sky Academy, a deserted warehouse, and school buildings.

Firearms use was combined with sniping lessons. Its site was a shooting range to the east of the Sky Academy.

Assassination, scout, and defense lessons were combined. The site was the entire Sky Academy, and Kunlun City would temporarily release tasks.

For the electronic intrusion maneuver, the site was Number One school building.

Besides, there was a mechanical control site. It was a maneuver for displaying rather than resisting.

Intelligence collection and analysis also did not require confrontation. It was in the Number Two school building.

For the cruelest one-to-one actual combat, its site was the training ground in the north of the academy.

Zhao Hefei took the students from the Deep-sea Academy to walk. He kept stopping and explaining along the way. He was not powerful enough, but his cultivation of the Fire-flaming Realm could keep him alive at all times.

The sun was gradually rising and it became scorching.

Zhao Hefei took a group of students to walk on the path of the Sky Academy, and most of them were more powerful than him. He pointed to the front and said softly, “The training ground of the Sky Academy is there. It’s the site for the final maneuver. You’re all familiar with this place, so you don’t need to go there.”

He wiped the sweat on his forehead and said with a smile, “There is a nice hotel nearby. Let’s go to eat first. How about free-time activities in the afternoon?”

“Let’s go check it out.” A husky and sexy female voice sounded.

…

Zhao Hefei, who had already turned around, suddenly turned his head.

The woman who was closest to him spoke.

She walked quietly in front of all the students. She looked extremely solitary.

Jiang Shangyu, who was uniquely qualified to keep pace with her, was not here.

Thus, she justifiably became the only leader of the first group of students from the Deep-sea Academy.

All the students intentionally or unintentionally fell behind her for a short distance.

The woman, who stood in front, looked somewhat solitary and indifferent.

She was attractive in a strange kind of way.

Her beauty was widely known, and no one dared to look at her directly.

She was gorgeous but not enchanting.

On the contrary, all the people could only feel lonely and apathetic.

She seemed to take nothing in mind.

She was not indifferent.

Indifference was a kind of emotion.

The pure apathy was without any emotion.

Her skin was a little dark, but it did not affect her beauty. Instead, she looked a little wilder.

She was silent and wild, gorgeous and indifferent.

She was a sophisticated lady.

She had a complex temperament.

Zhao Hefei glanced at her and immediately turned his head subconsciously.

He was a little afraid of this woman.

While facing her, he acted the same as the students of the Deep-sea Academy.

He was not willing to take these people to the training ground.

The Number One platform, which Li Tianlan destroyed with one strike, was still being rebuilt.

Zhao Hefei felt disgraced.

He was the logistics director, so he was in charge of setting up some facilities in the training ground.

However, he could not refuse.

The woman said to go and see, so he had to do so, for no other reason than that she was Song Ci.

…

…

“I might as well take a look.”

Zhao Hefei smiled a little unnaturally and led the way into the training ground.

In recent years, the training ground had been rebuilt.

The high platform expanded to a radius of 100 meters and became nearly six meters high. It looked broad and majestic. The stone platform did not look different, but its interior had been replaced with a lot of alloys that were hard.

The elites of the two academies fought one-to-one here.

In the final maneuver, all the 16 high platforms would be started and stained with the blood of the elites.

Zhao Hefei took Song Ci and others to platform Number 16.

He walked past every platform one by one.

With empty eyes, Song Ci stared at the tall and hard platform.

The emptiness in her eyes gradually disappeared.

There was a sharp and confident light in her eyes.

These were the eyes of a conqueror—confident, overbearing, and arrogant.

She took all the people of the Sky Academy as the object to conquer.

“Go to platform Number One,” Song Ci said indifferently, with an almost commanding tone.

…

Zhao Hefei did not feel any discomfort. He only felt a little embarrassed to take the crowd to platform Number One.

…

Platform Number One was still in ruins.

The alloys customized by the Sky Academy would be delivered two days later.

Song Ci most wanted to see this ruin.

She had seen Li Tianlan’s video, but she felt that it was more real while standing here, even though there was no sword intent.

…

Song Ci slowly walked up to the ruins of the platform.

The students in the rear followed silently.

The sword intent on the high platform had long disappeared. However, some sword marks scratched by Sword Qi still existed and remained unchanged.

As Song Ci carefully observed the numerous sword marks on the ruins, she thought of the video images she saw.

Her eyes gradually became solemn but still confident.

She slowly closed her eyes and went forward by instinct. She wanted to stand in the most reasonable position to imagine the power of Li Tianlan’s strike.

There was a low cry from somewhere behind her.

Song Ci opened her eyes, with her pupils suddenly contracted.

A man stood in front of her.

The man looked ordinary, and he could be regarded comely at best.

He was dressed in white and stepped on the alloys, which were destroyed by sword intent and scalded. He was quiet and almost unreal.

Song Ci’s heart suddenly jumped.

She did not know how long he was standing here.

She also did not know when he appeared.

Before she saw him, no one even noticed his existence.

“Li Tianlan!”

Song Ci took a deep breath and forced herself to be calm. In a flash, she subconsciously wanted to retreat, but she stood still.

Li Tianlan stood in front of Song Ci without any sound. He seemed to be wholly integrated with the ruins.

Song Ci could only feel the ruins, and Li Tianlan was completely illusory for her.

Illusion met the unknown.

Song Ci even could feel no danger or threat.

However, Li Tianlan could feel that the woman in front of him was powerful.

He easily identified her.

“Song Ci?” Li Tianlan asked.

His eyes were quiet and patient. He looked like a hunter who had gotten his prey.

“Yes.” Song Ci sounded indifferent.

…

It was all right.

Li Tianlan seemed to smile, and he sighed.

He took a step, without hesitation or bullshit.

…

The raging sword intent suddenly rose when he landed on the ground.

The sword intent squeezed every space and made an explosive sound.

A vast and heavy alloy suddenly rose into the sky within Sword Qi and directly hit Song Ci.

Wild Sword Qi suddenly burst out without warning, as the alloys, like the panel of a door, covered the hot sun, causing a gust of wind.

…

It whistled like the roar of a dragon.
