Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1360

Baldrick shook his head and said firmly, "No, it must be you, Fade. No one else can do that. Moreover, the Martial Arts Contest held by the Martial Arts League is about to begin. You are undoubtedly the best candidate to improve the strength of the squad in such a short time."

"Martial Arts League, Martial Arts Contest?" Fade remembered that the last time when he went to Jade City, it was Hollace and Lucille who informed him that he was on the Dragon List. They seemed to have been from the Martial Arts League. As for the Martial Arts Contest, Fade was not clear about it.

Baldrick noticed his confused expression and explained, "The Martial Arts League is an alliance of Chinese martial artists. The Stealth Team members are mostly martial artists and many of us are also from the Martial Arts League."

"In order to promote the development of martial arts and allow everyone in the martial arts world to make a joint progress, the Martial Arts League would organize a Martial Arts Convention within the whole country every four years to gather all the martial artists in the country together for the competition."

"The people with outstanding performance would not only receive various prizes and benefits, but may also be chosen by many clans, families and special departments on the spot to be their members. The Martial Arts Contest by the Martial Arts Alliance is like a carnival for all the martial artists in the country."

"The Stealth Team wants to achieve good results by attending this Martial Arts Contest. However, with their current strength, it's certainly not enough. Thus, I want you to give special training to them."

After listening to Baldrick's words, Fade finally understood his intention. After a moment of silence, Fade sighed and said, "Baldrick, as far as I know, the members of the Stealth Team are all elites, and the Five Elements Squad also consists of elites from the Stealth Team. I'm afraid that some people will not be willing to accept me as their instructor!"

Baldrick immediately widened his eyes and replied, "Fade, you are the special instructor of our Stealth Team. Furthermore, you are a young martial arts master who ranks first on the Dragon List. Who wouldn't want to accept you as their instructor?"

"Uh..." Fade hesitated.

Baldrick immediately forced a smile and continued, "Besides, Fade, you are the apprentice of Master Hsuanyuen. They are considered lucky to be able to get your special training. If they know who you are, I'm afraid that those who want to join the special training would fight with each other just to participate."

At the mention of "Master Hsuanyuen", Fade looked at Baldrick in surprise and asked, "Baldrick, how did you know..."

Master Hsuanyuen was Fade's master. He was the guy whom Fade had called "old fogey" on the phone.

Aldred Hsuanyuen was a domineering man and Fade, who had been calling him "old fogey" for many years, for a while, found it impossible for him to connect the name to the old man. The man with such a noble name would always be lying on a chair on Tianwu Mountain as he watched movies.

When he noticed Fade's confusion and surprise, Baldrick sighed and explained, "You don't have to be surprised, Fade. Master Hsuanyuen called me personally to appoint you as the special instructor of the Stealth Team so I know about the relationship between you and him."

"Moreover, 30 years ago, I admired Master Hsuanyuen so much that I went to Tianwu Mountain to ask him to be my master, but unfortunately, I was slow-witted and didn't gain his favor. In the end, I only received a few words of advice from him, and then went down the mountain."

"Whenever I think about it now, the failure back then is still one of my biggest regrets!" Baldrick said in a lamenting tone.

Then, he looked at Fade and said with a smile, "If I had succeeded in being an apprentice to Master Hsuanyuen, I would've been your senior. Alas, it's just a pity for me... Anyway, I've always remembered Master Hsuanyuen's advice to me. He would always be a teacher in my heart."

Fade was astonished. He didn't expect that a big shot, the Vice Officer of the Stealth Team, once wanted to be an apprentice of the old fogey, but had failed in the end.

Even so, Baldrick still had a look of regret and nostalgia on his face. It seemed that receiving advice from the old man was a huge blessing.

Fade was dumbfounded by Baldrick's endless praise for the old fogey. For a moment, Fade began to suspect whether the wretched old man he had been with for many years was the same person whom Baldrick had mentioned.

"Fade, junior, for the sake of Master Hsuanyuen, just agree to this request." Baldrick looked at Fade expectantly.

How could Fade not agree when Baldrick had kept persuading him to the point that he even used his master to convince him? Hence, he nodded. "Well, Baldrick, I promise you that I will be the instructor. However, I still have some things to do in Capital City. I am afraid that I can't stay in the base and carry out training in a confined space."

Baldrick quickly stated, "Fade, you are a Special Instructor. You don't need to give special training in an enclosed area. You just need to give them some guidance at critical moments. Fade, you can walk in and out of the base freely."

The headquarters was a state-level secret place. Since Fade had been given permission to come in and out of it freely, Baldrick had given him the freedom to do as he pleased.

After discussing it further, the both of them did not waste anymore time. They came out of the office together and were ready to meet the Five Elements Squad so that they could start the special training immediately.

Laney, who was waiting outside the office, was still worried about Fade because of Lester and the Hsia family.

However, when she saw Fade and Baldrick walk out of the office with warm smiles on their faces, she was stunned. She couldn't help but rub her eyes as she muttered to herself, "What, what's going on? Why is Baldrick so close to Fade? Besides, is he even Baldrick at all? Why didn't he smile as much as he does now when he talked to us!"

Baldrick then looked at her and said, "Laney, go to the squad and inform them that I have arranged everything for the instructor." "Yes!" Laney recovered from her shock and nodded hurriedly. Then, she ran to inform the squad about the news.

At this moment, in the depths of the base and in a large martial arts training room, dozens of warriors were busy practising.

Some were practicing with different special training equipment, some were sitting cross-legged, cultivating with their eyes closed, and some were simply going to the ring to directly practice with each other in actual combat.

Amongst these people, four men and women in their thirties sat in a corner. Laney walked over to them and said something. After listening to her, they couldn't help but be surprised, and then, they began to discuss it.
