Chapter 252: I Represent the Dragon Division (Part two)
The old man bitterly laughed and then he stroked Xu Chengâs head and said, âKid, if you are too smart, you will go bald early, do you know that? Itâs also no wonder that you can find such a pretty wife.â
Xu Cheng: âThen you are wrong on that one. Itâs her that found me. My wife is actually a lot smarter. See, sheâs so beautiful, and her background and status are both out of my league right now, yet she was set on marrying me since a long time ago. Do you know why? Because sheâs someone with impeccable taste. She could see that Iâm very smart and that one day Iâll achieve big things. Thatâs why she decided to invest in me, the valuable and quality pick, before anyone else could.â
The old man blew his beard and said, âIf it wasnât because I had no choice, I wouldâve beaten you to death by now.â
Xu Cheng: âI know, and I was deliberately testing your patience and bottom line to see how much I weigh in your heart.â
Old man: âAlright, you win.â
Xu Cheng: âBut old man, can I ask another question? Why does it have to be me?â
This was really what Xu Cheng wanted to know. It was because he was scared that someone already found out about his bodyâs secret, which was his biggest trump card! Why didnât this old man pick anyone else? Could there be any scientific research involved here? Xu Cheng was quite scared that the country or the worldâs research team would find him and break him down, so he had no choice but to have his guard up.
The old man thought for a second and said, âSo you want to know?â
Xu Cheng nodded. âIf you donât tell me, then I would rather not learn it, even if it can make me a lot stronger.â
The old man laughed. âI really like your temper and principles. Very well, then I will tell you. Thatâs right, too many people want to become my successor, but no matter how hard they tried, they couldnât learn my technique. Do you know, among the 10 elites I tested, the most someone saw through was 6 strokes, and that was after I showed him the technique 5 times! But you, just once, or it could also be said that you werenât even paying much attention at first, you were already able to see through 12 strokes. You are the only one able to do this well.â
Xu Cheng asked again, âBut we are just acquaintances and donât have much of a connection, yet you really want to teach me your technique. Wouldnât it be a strange reason if itâs just because you donât want your technique to lose its lineage? Or, is there something you want me to do in return? I feel like thereâs no free lunch in the world.â
The old man laughed. âI know what you are worried about. You are a smart and rational person, you know the good and the dark side of this world and itâs pretty easy talking to you. Alright, since you are vigilant, then letâs both put aside our disguises and do a deal.â
Xu Cheng let out a sigh of relief and said, âNow thatâs what I wanted.â
The old man suddenly said, word for word, âI represent the Dragon Division!â
Xu Chengâs pupils immediately zoomed in as he turned around right away to look at the old man, âWhat did you say? Dragon Division? Which Dragon Division?â
The old man: âIn Huaxia, which other organization dares to call themselves the Dragon Division?â
Xu Cheng shook his head. He came back to his senses and said, âNo, thatâs not right, the Dragon Division would usually recruit people for tryouts and then get them to join the substitute rank first. That would be the correct protocol. Old man, are you a fake?â
The old man laughed. âFor this yearâs competition, how come the other top 10 soldiers all received a guardian-class soldier hiring invitation but you didnât get one? Havenât you thought about it?â
Xu Chengâs face changed. âOh right, I wondered about that too, and I thought you guys ran out or something. So, does that mean I can join the Dragon Division?â
Old man: âYeah, but I have my assessment. 30 strokes. If you canât see through all, then you are not recruited.â
Xu Cheng directly stood up. âAlright, let me try again.â
