Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 277: Chapter 276: Wang Jie Is Really Strong

Nobody had expected that in the face of the combined attack from Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang, two great masters, Ye Tianchen would emerge unscathed and even defeat them both. Particularly shocking was the display of Ye Tianchen’s powerful Superpower Skill and his calm and composed expression, which deeply impacted the remaining masters. After a loud shout from Ye Tianchen, they all instinctively stood up straight as if they were facing a drill sergeant’s reprimand.

”Can’t you hear what I’m saying?” Ye Tianchen turned around, staring intently at Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang who lay on the ground as he shouted.

Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang were both stunned. They hadn’t anticipated that Ye Tianchen, so young, would possess such formidable strength, and when serious, he exuded an aura of authority like the Death God himself, unassailable by anyone, or else their only option would be to eat his fists.

Wuxue, Hu Long, Lin Duan, and Bao Tianglong were the first to neatly line up, followed by several other masters who had simply been onlookers, also joining in. Only Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang remained; although they still felt defiant, they had no choice—having lost, they had to act like men and accept their defeat, which meant obeying Ye Tianchen’s orders.

The formidable combat prowess displayed by Ye Tianchen left all the masters present incredibly shocked. No one could have imagined that a twenty-year-old could be so powerful. Although they were reluctant to be commanded by such a young man, many dared not make a move. They were probably not much stronger than Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang. However, many were wondering about the same thing: Wang Jie, who had gone to pee, had not yet returned. This guy was not easy to handle; maybe Wang Jie could defeat Ye Tianchen, maybe not, but everyone was looking forward to it.

”Don’t go over there. A wet-behind-the-ears kid, just because he has some skills, dares to boss us around. He should look at himself first!”

Just as Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang were about to join the line-up, a discordant voice rang out. A man, no more than thirty years old and about 1.73 meters tall, dressed just like Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang in camouflage, walked leisurely toward Ye Tianchen and the others. His eyes were spirited as he looked at Ye Tianchen, filled with disdain and challenge.

Ye Tianchen also turned to look at this man, his instincts telling him that this man was very strong, definitely stronger than Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang. Honestly, Ye Tianchen was genuinely surprised and pleased that Wuxue had managed to gather such a group of masters this time. He absolutely needed to win these people over; they would become the greatest force under his command.

Having decided to establish his own power, having decided to give those arrogant major families and powers a taste of their own medicine, having decided to rejuvenate the Ye family, Ye Tianchen would not hesitate. He was a man who acted on his desires, and retreating was not in his nature.

”Big brother, this guy is Wang Jie!” Wuxue whispered, stepping closer to Ye Tianchen.

At that moment, Wang Jie had walked to a position just about two meters away from Ye Tianchen and stopped. Behind him were Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang. Wang Jie glanced at Ye Tianchen, and then deliberately looked at Wuxue and said, ”Wuxue, hasn’t your so-called ’big brother’ shown up yet? Laozi is done peeing and needs to leave; I don’t have time to play with you guys!”

”Wang Jie, don’t go too far. This is our big brother Ye Tianchen!” Wuxue said respectfully turning to Ye Tianchen.

Wang Jie gave Ye Tianchen a disdainful look, sneered coldly, and then said, ”Is that so? Goodbye!”

Actually, everyone could see that it wasn’t that Wang Jie didn’t know the young man standing before him was Ye Tianchen; he was deliberately pretending not to see him. In a word, it was disdain, contempt. Even though Ye Tianchen had defeated Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang, Wang Jie still didn’t regard Ye Tianchen highly. He was a man of strong ability and extreme arrogance himself, deeming a young man like Ye Tianchen as nothing more than a playboy, simply here for fun. Being tricked into coming here by Wuxue was really bad luck, and it made him very angry.

”You...” Wuxue was about to make a move to teach Wang Jie a lesson but was stopped by Ye Tianchen.

Everyone adopted a spectating demeanor once more. Ye Tianchen’s defeat of Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang had indeed shocked them, but it also made many wonder about Ye Tianchen’s strength. Having defeated Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang, Ye Tianchen must have used his full strength, deploying such powerful Superpower Skill. Thus, it was very likely that Ye Tianchen was no match for Wang Jie, and if it really came to a fight, Ye Tianchen would undoubtedly lose.

These people recruited by Wuxue naturally did not wish for Ye Tianchen to triumph over Wang Jie; among this group, Wang Jie was the strongest. If Wang Jie lost, then they would have to obey commands from this twenty-year-old, which many found displeasing. They all had made names for themselves in the martial arts world, and following a mere playboy would surely be ridiculously laughable.

Ye Tianchen stepped forward, looked at Wang Jie, and smiled, saying, ”I will only use my right hand, and if you can defeat me within ten moves, you can stay or leave as you wish!”

Wang Jie furrowed his brows deeply. Everyone present was also shocked. They knew that Ye Tianchen might not easily let Wang Jie go, but they hadn’t expected Ye Tianchen to be so boastful as to only use his right hand, confident that Wang Jie couldn’t defeat him within ten moves? It was incredibly unbelievable. Wang Jie’s strength could be comparable to Wuxue, and if one were to carefully discuss it, he might even be slightly stronger than Wuxue. By using only his right hand, Ye Tianchen was belittling Wang Jie, not taking him seriously at all. This was a hundred times more powerful than any verbal insult.

”Hmph, I don’t want to stoop to your level. The idea of Wang Jie having to follow a brat like you is truly humiliating!” Wang Jie snorted coldly, gave Ye Tianchen a fierce look, said his piece, and turned to leave.

”Even if you, Wang Jie, have some skills, you’re still not impressive enough in my eyes, let alone a subordinate without discipline and organization, which I would never accept!” Ye Tianchen also responded with a casual smile.

The next moment, Wang Jie stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at Ye Tianchen, his eyes filled with unquellable rage. Wang Jie had never been so belittled before, especially by someone as young as the twenty-year-old Ye Tianchen, who claimed that he could only use one hand and still defeat Wang Jie within ten moves? It should be known that Wang Jie was quite renowned in the martial world; Ye Tianchen was just a tender child when he first ventured there.

”I really want to tear off your right hand right now!” Wang Jie said frostily as he looked at Ye Tianchen.

”It’s a pity you don’t have the strength to do so!” Ye Tianchen said with a smile.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became profoundly tense. Wang Jie and Ye Tianchen stood opposite each other, each staring down the other. Suddenly, Wang Jie disappeared from where he stood, dashing towards Ye Tianchen with the speed of lightning. Ye Tianchen frowned, involuntarily stepped back two steps, and placed his left hand behind his back, his right hand tightly clenched. The peak power of the King-level Superpower Realm instantly surged through his body. He did not dare to be careless; Wang Jie was an absolute expert, possibly the strongest here, and fighting him using only his right hand, ensuring victory within ten moves, was not going to be easy.

Honestly, Ye Tianchen was not entirely sure if he could block Wang Jie’s attacks using only his right hand within ten moves. This was merely a gamble, a way to earn Wang Jie’s respect willingly. Wang Jie was a formidable general worth having, but far too arrogant. Without breaking his pride, he would never follow Ye Tianchen wholeheartedly.

Swish!

Wang Jie threw a punch, and Ye Tianchen didn’t dodge but changed his right fist to a palm, meeting Wang Jie’s fist head-on.

Bang!

A muffled sound was heard, and both Ye Tianchen and Wang Jie stepped back two steps, then charged at each other once again, neither holding anything back, each striking with full force.

Wang Jie had not expected Ye Tianchen to truly just use his right hand and to directly collide with him without falling short. In fact, when Ye Tianchen had been fighting Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang earlier, Wang Jie had been watching from not far away, greatly surprised. He had not anticipated that this twenty-year-old was not just a pretty face but also remarkably skilled, defeating Zhang Wuquan and Deng Shuang in such a short period of time. After assessing the situation, Wang Jie figured he could defeat Ye Tianchen.

Of course, Wang Jie was not underestimating him. At least when striking, he didn’t hold back. At his level, he naturally understood a principle: never underestimate any opponent, because such an attitude could lead to a master’s downfall. Many masters have been defeated for being too dismissive, underestimating their opponents’ strength, and later regretting their actions as soon as they strike.

After exchanging a punch, Wang Jie’s demeanor changed completely, his eyes sharp as if trying to see right through Ye Tianchen. Suddenly, he stretched out the forefingers on both hands, and on each finger, there was Qi Force as sharp as a sword blasting forward, creating a formidable sight that shocked all the expert spectators around. They had not imagined Wang Jie to be so powerful, concentrating such powerful Qi Force in his fingertips. The force was so strong that even without striking, it caused the grass underfoot to sway without wind, showing the immense power that ordinary people could certainly not withstand.
