Chapter 2 One Move

  "In the army, it is strictly forbidden to stir up trouble and fight. Who dares to commit a crime? Are you tired of living?" The leader of the law enforcement team scolded, pointing at the crowd, and the soldiers on the scene did not dare to look directly at the leader's gaze, showing how intimidating he was in his daily life.

  But there was one exception, still looking at him with a big smile, that is Long Chen. However, the surrounding soldiers also cast their eyes on Long Chen, and the meaning was very clear: it was this kid who was fighting.

  The law enforcement team wasn't foolish either, immediately dispersing from behind the commander's back and subtly surrounding Long Chen, waiting for their commander to give the order before pouncing on him!

  Hu Meng was pulled up from the ground by Long Chen, patted his butt, and ran to General Liu's side. "General Liu, it's like this. I just received a new soldier and wanted to see how good his kung fu is. Who knew I picked up a treasure? As a result, none of us were a match for him. Hehe, no big deal, either we're not causing trouble or we're just exchanging blows between brothers."

  Listening to Hu Meng's words, Liu Zongqi's face relaxed a bit, but he still gently pushed away Hu Meng who was standing in front of him and walked towards Long Chen.

  "You're saying this pale and tender-looking kid is actually very good at fighting?"

  Judging from his tone, Liu Zongji seemed to still be a bit skeptical. Hu Meng almost blurted out: "You can try it out." But he held back the words and continued with a smiling face, "Yes, this kid indeed has some skills."

  "Nowadays, some people think they have a bit of kung fu skills and become arrogant, but they don't know that there are people outside who are better than them, and above the sky, there is another sky." Liu Zongji thought that Long Chen was one of those people who would show off his skills after learning a few tricks.

  As Liu Zongqi walked up to him, Long Chen remained unmoved, with a faint smile still hanging on the corner of his mouth. However, in Liu Zongqi's eyes, this smile was a slight contempt for his authority.

  "If it's really that powerful, then I'll give it a try." As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Zongji suddenly struck out with his fist, punching towards Long Chen's chest at an extremely fast speed.

  However, Long Chen kept his eyes fixed on Liu Zongqi's body and was not distracted by the other party's words. In fact, when a person is about to attack, their body will exhibit some "preparatory" movements, such as slightly lowering their center of gravity, lifting their hips, or rotating their toes. These movements may be very subtle, but they will definitely exist. The preparatory movements before launching each type of attack are different, and Long Chen analyzed Liu Zongqi's attack method by observing the subtle preparatory movements of his body, and had already made preparations in advance. Therefore, Liu Zongqi's punch was easily dodged by Long Chen.

  Since they've made the first move, I won't hold back either. The special forces have always believed in the great man's teachings: don't bother me and I won't bother you, but if you bother me, I'll return it twofold.

  Only to see Long Chen's left foot hooking the ground, his right leg striking sideways, his waist exerting force, and his right fist attacking his opponent's face. Both of his movements were launched simultaneously, and an ordinary opponent would be caught off guard by such an attack, becoming flustered and unable to cope, or even directly defeated.

  Liu Zongqi, after all, was a veteran who had been through battles, and any martial art would only become a true "killing" technique after being baptized in blood, just like a treasure sword needed to be unsheathed. He saw that his left hand made a gesture to hold down Long Chen's fist, while his right palm sought to strike Long Chen's shoulder, his legs walked in a bow-shaped step, and his entire lower body leaned forward, forming an arrowhead shape. Faced with Long Chen's upper and lower combined attack, Liu Zongqi responded with an upper route counterattack and a lower route dead guard, it can be said that his reaction was extremely cunning.

  This old guy is indeed capable, but only just barely. Long Chen thought to himself. It's not like he didn't know that Long Chen grasped the essence of the Liberation Army's combat skills, and on top of that, the Republic's borders were not at peace, with conflicts constantly erupting, but because the government was deliberately covering it up, the public didn't know how many Republican soldiers were bleeding and sacrificing for this country. As the leader of the special forces team, Long Chen was always on the front lines of conflict, with extremely rich combat experience, and the Republic's top warriors were not just empty names!

  Long Chen's originally attacking right leg quickly changed moves, walking a hooking path, wrapping around Liu Zongbing's front leg. The right fist that was originally attacking the road quickly changed to a palm, wrapping around Liu Zongbing's attacking right palm. Then his left hand transformed into a "knife", transforming into a killing move, fiercely chopping towards Liu Zongbing's neck.

  Liu Zongqi's eyes snapped open, but by then it was too late to change his move. His front leg had been hooked by Long Chen, who immediately pressed down with his body, taking away Liu Zongqi's center of gravity and causing him to lose balance. As a result, the strength in his hands weakened slightly. However, this slight weakening often decided the outcome of the battle. Liu Zongqi's attacking right palm was wrapped up by Long Chen, while his defending left hand, due to its lack of strength, was forcefully broken open by Long Chen's knife-hand and struck on the neck. This was a fight to the death, not a martial arts performance. Long Chen wouldn't play at "point-and-stop" unless you completely lost your fighting strength.

  Luckily, Liu Zongqi's defense was broken by Long Chen's hand knife, but it also dissipated most of the power of the hand knife. As a result, when Long Chen's hand knife landed, he only felt severe pain in his neck and lost all strength in his body. He collapsed to the ground, but there was no danger to his life.

  Seeing that the other party had already lost strength, Long Chen strongly endured and continued to attack, taking advantage of the opponent's professional habits. Standing like this, he looked down at Liu Zongqi from a superior position.

  Liu Zong's heart was also greatly shocked. To outsiders, it seemed like just a brief exchange of blows, but he knew that his opponent had calmly faced his sudden attack, dodged with ease, and made a swift and powerful counterattack. Even after Liu Zong responded, his opponent still had the ability to change tactics mid-way, instantly defeating him. This required incredibly quick reflexes and actual combat experience! During the battle, Liu Zong smelled the bloody aura on his opponent's body, and the little blood aura on himself was nothing compared to his opponent's. Was this kid someone who walked out of a pile of dead bodies?

  The surrounding soldiers were shocked by this scene. This young man had already taken down several of Hu Meng's men, and it was no surprise that he could handle someone like Hu Meng, who didn't have much skill beyond his physical strength. But Liu Zongji was a different story altogether - he was an old veteran who had fought alongside General Mao in countless battles, a renowned brave general from the Iron Mountain region, and the leader of the law enforcement team. And yet, this young man had taken him down with just one move! This was incredible. From that moment on, the crowd's gaze towards Long Chen changed, their playful teasing replaced by respect. A strong person is worthy of respect, no matter where they are.

  The law enforcement team's soldiers saw that their own commander was actually knocked down by the opponent in a surprise attack, and they were all stunned. It took them a while to come back to their senses. This kid is really daring! The law enforcement team immediately drew their swords and rushed towards Long Chen together. Some people even started drawing their bows and arrows. Now that they had confirmed that the opponent was a ruthless person, they must go all out against him.

  "Get back! Did I ask you to come up?" Liu Zongqi shouted as he sat on the ground with exhaustion.

  The law enforcement team's men had no choice but to retreat in disappointment.

  Liu Zongqi struggled to get up from the ground and pointed at Long Chen, asking: "Young man, what's your name?"

  Long Chen.

  "My name is Liu De Zong, young man. I remember you. Your skills are impressive. Let's practice together again when we have the chance." Suddenly, General Liu smiled.

  "Anytime."

  "If there's anything, come find me. I'll treat you to a drink tomorrow night, but not tonight, I have to go back and lie down for a while." Manager Liu smiled and acknowledged that he had been thoroughly defeated, but was a magnanimous person and didn't get angry about it.

  Liu Zong turned around and waved his hand to leave, the law enforcement team followed him and left together. After the law enforcement team left, the atmosphere on the scene became lively, and everyone began to whisper and discuss this young man under Hu Meng's command.

  "Good boy, you've really struck it lucky this time."

  "Yes, General Totem is quite fond of him, he will definitely rise to prominence in the future."

  Hu Meng then came to Long Chen's side with a flustered face, at this moment he couldn't even put on the airs of an official. The saying "the more skilled one is, the bolder they are" was indeed true, this little guy dared to hit even General Flag, so it's better for him not to show off in front of him. Little Flag had reached this level, and he was truly one of a kind.

  "Let's go in and talk." Long Chen said as he walked into the house.

  "You few, fix the door quickly, hurry up." After ordering his men to repair the door, Hu Meng also followed them into the house. Who is in charge here anyway? Forget it, whoever has the bigger fist is the boss.
