A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage)
Chapter 1212 An Astounding Achievement

"Instructor Chu, it's Lin Qing-He and his people. They went too far. They ganged up with the Jiangbei military and used unscrupulous means to get the organizing party to disqualify us from participating in the contest," snarled Li Zi-Yang. The young man brimmed with rage.

They might have been cast out of the Jiangdong military but nowhere in the rules of the contest was it stated that soldiers who had been formerly cast out of one military camp couldn't represent another military camp and take part in the contest.

They had resigned from the Jiangdong military and were representing the Yanjing military in the contest. Their participation in the contest had nothing to do with the Jiangdong military at all. They hadn't broken the rules at all.

It was obvious that Lin Qing-He had pulled some strings and ganged up with the Jiangbei military to deny the Green Dragon Force's right in taking part in the contest.

The Green Dragon Force would have gladly accepted the judges' decision to disqualify them if they had indeed broken the rules.

But they weren't going to stand for Lin Qing-He using unscrupulous means to rob them of their right to participate in the contest.

Li Zi-Yang and his teammates told Ye Fan exactly what had happened in Jiangbei.

The look in Ye Fan's eyes grew colder as they shared their frustration and anger.

The look in his eyes could cut diamonds.

He looked ready to kill someone.

"How about Lu Tian-He? Where is he?" asked Ye Fan coolly as he tried to rein in his temper.

"Instructor Chu, General Lu did not return with us," said Wang Dong-Sheng hastily.

"He is still in Jiangbei."

"Is that so? He must be too ashamed to see me. That's true and I'm glad he knows

it."

Lu Tian-He had to bear responsibility for what had happened to the Green Dragon Force.

Ye Fan's impression of him as an ineffectual man was cemented in his mind.

"We shall head to Jiangbei. I will join you. Let's see them try and bully you when I'm around."

Ye Fan decided instantly that they had to make another trip to Jiangbei.

He wasn't going to suffer insult in silence.

He always made sure his enemies paid for incurring his wrath.

The Green Dragon Force followed Ye Fan as they drove to Jiangbei.

"Instructor Chu, please don't do anything rash when you arrive at Jiangbei. The chief instructor of every military camp in the country will be there. There are tens of thousands of soldiers stationed outside the camp too," urged Wang Dong-Sheng anxiously during their journey.

"What about them? I built the Green Dragon Force from scratch. I'm not going to let anyone push them around and insult them. I'll spare their lives if they realize their mistake and apologize for it. If they don't, I'm not going to go easy on them."

Their car sped down the road as it raced away from Yunzhou and towards Jiangbei.

The winds had risen and were howling outside.

Ye Fan's promise of violence was carried away by the howling wind while the iciness in his words lingered in the car and sent tremors coursing through everyone. Meanwhile, the contest in Jiangbei went on without a hitch.

Many folks were convinced that the Jiangbei military and its team, Qiongqi, was going to come in first this year again.

Jiangbei was filled with talented and gifted youths and had a vibrant martial arts scene. Many powerful martial artists in the country had come from Jiangbei.

That was why many people placed their bets on the Jiangbei military's team clinching the championship every contest.

In fact, the Qiongqi had reigned supreme in the last decade and emerged as champions for the last three contests. They had been hailed as the strongest special troops in China.

In their first match, the Qiongqi defeated the Xibei military's team, the Red Phoenixes, with overwhelming force.

It was a great start for the Qiongqi.

"You know what they say about masterful teachers and the masterful students they groom. Instructor Han is an incredible martial artist. No one's surprised that the team that you've trained is equally strong. The Red Phoenixes barely stood a chance against them," said Lin Qing-He with a wide smile on his face as he congratulated Han Ping on his team's victory.

Han Ping simply waved his hand.

"That's not entirely true. My students are truly gifted," he said modestly. "The team leader, Huang Shao-Tian, is a descendant of the Huang family in Jiangbei. The Huang family is renowned for being a family of martial artists. Being surrounded by martial artists and martial arts all his life, Shao-Tian naturally developed a terrifying gift for it. I have a feeling that he's going to surpass me in the future. He might even become as powerful as Long Bai-Chuan."

In every age, a powerful figure would emerge in the military and earn the undying adoration and respect of all soldiers.

In the previous age, it had been Ye Qing-Tian.

In this age, it was Long Bai-Chuan.

Even though Ye Qing-Tian had started out in the military, he had since left the military. They needed someone else to take his place.

Long Bai-Chuan was that someone.

"Commander Lin, the Eagles Force is up next. I wish them the best of luck! I look forward to meeting your team in the finals. The Jiangbei and Jiangdong militaries will pit our teams against each other then," said Han Ping politely.

He hadn't truly meant it.

The best performance that the Jiangdong military had displayed had been when they had come in third.

But it had suffered a series of unfortunate incidents this year. They had lost two chief instructors in succession, one through death and the other through banishment. The Eagles Force had been put together under difficult circumstances. Han Ping wouldn't pin his hopes on them.

In fact, he predicted that the Eagles Force might just come in last this year.

What unfolded next was entirely beyond Han Ping's expectation.

That afternoon, the Eagles Force turned the tides after a long and tedious battle and managed to win their match.

The Xinan military's team, the Black Tigers, and the first runner-up of the last contest, was eliminated in that match.

"Heavens! That was incredible!"

"Commander Lin, the Eagles Force is indeed a formidable team. They managed to turn the tides and earn a beautiful victory. I see great potential in them."

"That's right! They managed to beat the Black Tigers. That's amazing!"

"They're going to clinch the title of first runner-up! I'm sure of it!"

Many people approached Lin Qing-He to congratulate him on the Eagles Force's performance.

It had been a surprising treat.

Lin Qing-He simply smiled wordlessly without betraying his condescension.

"This is just the beginning. Just wait and see. The Eagles Force is going to blow your minds away!"
