Chapter 165: Showing Weakness

"Okay!" Gao Yong didn't expect Shen Zheng to respond proactively, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Shen Zheng, think it through." Lin Liang hurried to Shen Zheng's side and whispered. "You are the commander of the military region. In previous exchanges, challenges and competitions are limited to the insect controllers of the six countries. Because it involves the secrets of the military region's strength, although there are no rules, everyone has formed a tacit understanding over the years-the insect controllers of the military region only participate in technical exchanges and discussions, but not in real competitions and competitions."

"Lin Liang, old boy, what are you mumbling about there?" Gao Yong glared, "Are you discussing some conspiracy with him to deal with me? It seems that Jin Zhongting and Hong Jian also died in Shen Zheng's hands like this?"

"You!" Lin Liang was so angry that he glared, and Shen Zheng shook his head gently, indicating that he didn't need to get excited.

"Gao Yong, isn't your goal to fight me?" Shen Zheng smiled, "I'll help you." [

He turned to Luther: "Mr. Luther, did I violate some rules of the military region by doing this? If so, I can end this duel at the exchange meeting, or change the place with Mr. Gao Yong to compete."

"Why, you want to find an excuse to escape so soon?" Gao Yong snorted.

"Don't get me wrong." Shen Zheng said coldly, "I did this just to express my loyalty and respect to the military region, and it has nothing to do with you."

"It doesn't violate any rules." Luther said, "It's just that there is no precedent for military officers to fight with the rulers of subordinate countries. You know, this will hurt the harmony between the military region and the subordinate countries, and the gain will not outweigh the loss."

"But the problem now is that my dignity has been challenged." Shen Zheng said. "So I have to fight to prove myself."

"Then please come to the fighting field." Luther said, "I will invite the deputy commander to come and let him preside over your competition."

"Very good!" Gao Yong clenched his fist and looked at Shen Zheng with a contemptuous smile on his face. In his opinion, Shen Zheng was destined to pay the price of blood for Tianhe's national prestige this time.

Yu Cangming just frowned slightly and tried to contact the commander-in-chief Zhou Yanxin again with his mobile phone, but it was obviously still unreachable.

"There's something interesting to watch." Mu Huafeng laughed.

Qiu Shijing looked at Gao Yong with a disdainful expression on his face.

The strength of all officers in the legion was a secret to the insect controllers of the six countries. Therefore, Gao Yong didn't know how strong Gu Qinghan was. He made a wrong judgment because Shen Zheng was too young. However, these officers in the military region knew the strength of these insect controllers of the six countries very well, because they had seen these people take action several times at previous exchange meetings.

Although the insect controllers of the six countries would be cautious and reserved during the competition to prevent being seen through by the officers of the military region, these insect controllers in the military region were not given away for free. No matter how much they concealed, they would inevitably be seen through.

In Qiu Shijing's opinion, Gao Yong is indeed better than himself, but not too much worse. At most, there is a difference of about 30 to 50 points of insect power. This ability is useless in front of Shen Zheng.

Qiu Shijing's temper is only so good when facing Shen Zheng. Gao Yong just mocked him for his lack of strength, which made him want to teach Gao Yong a lesson himself. Now that he can see Gao Yong make a fool of himself, he is naturally very happy.

For the people of Longyu and Zuoyu, it is a happy thing to see the conflict between Tianhe Kingdom and military officers, both from the perspective of feasting the eyes and from the perspective of national interests.

The report meeting ended, and everyone immediately stood up and went to the fighting field - in the exchange community, there is also a fighting field like the one in the reserve generals' residential area, so everyone does not have to walk too far.

Soon, all the insect controllers came to the fighting field. Under Luther's arrangement, they found a place to sit on the viewing platform on one side, while the two who were going to compete came to the center of the fighting field and stood, looking at each other with cold eyes.

"Why, someone wants to compete on the first day?" Amidst the laughter, Lu Jin came from outside, so the insect controllers who were already sitting stood up and saluted Lu Jin. Lu Jin waved his hand casually, came to the top of the viewing platform and sat down, looking at the two people in the field.

"Dear deputy commander." Gao Yong saluted Lu Jin, "Shen Zheng can become the powerful corps commander of the military region at such a young age and take charge of a defense zone. I am very surprised and curious. I really want to know how much higher his strength is than ours, so I put forward the request for a competition. You won't object, right?" [

"Competition is a good thing." Lu Jin nodded slightly, "It can maximize people's strength. But if it involves bloody killing, it's not good. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Understood!" Shen Zheng and Gao Yong answered almost at the same time.

"Then I have nothing to say." Lu Jin spread his hands, "Let's start."

"Please, both of you." Luther, who was standing in the center of the arena, stepped back and made a gesture to start. He took out a small controller like a remote control and pressed a button. In an instant, a strong insect force seeped out from the bottom of the fighting arena, covering the entire fighting arena and isolating the viewing platform from the center of the fighting arena.

Luther did not leave the center area, but stood aside as a referee to observe. A strong force belonging to the Melting Insects permeated from his shirt pocket and protected him.

"Captain Shen Zheng." Gao Yong stared at Shen Zheng, his eyes radiating murderous intent. Although he was covered in the room, he could not escape Shen Zheng's eyes.

"Deputy Commander Gao Yong." Shen Zheng said calmly.

"Thank you for your advice." Gao Yong said.

"Same here." Shen Zheng said.

As soon as the voice fell, Gao Yong's body had surged with a wave of pressure like a storm, as if a flood had burst its banks and was surging towards Shen Zheng.

Shen Zheng felt that from this majesty, there was a breath of water, from which he felt that Gao Yong should have the power of water.

Should I completely subdue them, or... Shen Zheng was hesitating.

Letting them be defeated in shock directly would be a pleasant choice, but what about after that? There is another Zhou Yanxin in Tianhe. How would he react to an enemy like me?

People who try their best to show that they are strong are often weak. On the contrary, people who try their best to make themselves look inconspicuous are mostly real strong people, except for those who are really inconspicuous and capable. Zhou Yanxin is the head of a country, and his scheming is definitely not like that of ordinary people. Facing a newcomer who is rumored to be a super genius and has a record of killing veteran strongmen, but has only shown extremely low strength, he will take cautious measures instead of a thunderous attack.

I am not his opponent yet, it is better for him not to see through me.

Having made up his mind, Shen Zheng also began to release pressure, but deliberately restrained it, and the intensity he showed was slightly worse than Gao Yong.

"Huh?" Qiu Shijing on the viewing platform couldn't help but exclaimed.

"What's wrong?" Mu Huafeng asked in a low voice.

"Shen Zheng is definitely more than this strength." Qiu Shijing said in a low voice, "The strength he is showing now is about the same as mine, but with this strength, there is absolutely no way to kill Gu Qinghan."

"He wants to play." Mu Huafeng laughed.

"Play?" Qiu Shijing looked at Mu Huafeng puzzledly.

"What's the point of knocking down the opponent in one go?" Mu Huafeng thought he saw through Shen Zheng's thoughts. "When I was a kid, I went outside to play video games, the kind of fighting games. At first, I just wanted to show off, so I went all out and often defeated my opponents with full health. As a result, because I knew that my strength was too far behind, no one dared to play with me. It was very boring. Later, I learned to control my strength and always let my opponents feel that they were on par with me and that they could defeat me with just one more chance. So challengers came up one after another, allowing me to experience the joy of defeating them one by one. I think Shen Zheng should be playing this kind of game now." [

The discussion on the viewing platform had not yet ended, and the two people on the field started to move. The first to attack was Gao Yong. He emitted a blood-red light while waving his hand, summoned a long sword insect spirit, and the sword tip drew a blood-red stream of light in the air, stabbing straight towards Shen Zheng's chest.

Shen Zheng also summoned the blood spirit whip and wrapped it around his arm, forming a layer of protection like arm armor. He turned sideways and blocked it with this arm.

The sword tip was stabbing at the arm, but was blocked by the Blood Spirit Whip. A powerful force was transmitted, constantly impacting the Blood Spirit Whip, as if to pierce it in an instant.

Shen Zheng smiled slightly in his heart.

In his feeling, Gao Yong's insect power should be above 600, but not more than 700, and this sword stab further confirmed Shen Zheng's feeling. Through the experience of the power of this sword, Shen Zheng can be sure that Gao Yong's insect power will not exceed 670.

Such a character is simply not worth mentioning in Shen Zheng's eyes, and it is impossible to gain anything from fighting with him.

Play with you. Shen Zheng thought with a playful mood, pretending to take two steps back, and then exerted his strength with his arm to block the long sword.

He is really just like that! At this time, Gao Yong couldn't help but sneer in his heart. He only used about 70% of his strength in this sword, and Shen Zheng was forced to take two steps back. It can be imagined that if he exerted his full strength, Shen Zheng would definitely not be able to resist.

The following battle also confirmed Gao Yong's view. Shen Zheng no longer dared to take his long sword, but just kept dodging. After escaping the attack range of the long sword, he shook off the long whip wrapped around his arm, trying to restrain Gao Yong with the advantage of the insect spirit's attack range.

Yu Cangming, who was sitting on the viewing platform, looked at the battle situation nervously at first, but at this time, his eyes had returned to normal, a smile hung on his lips, and his confidence in winning had begun to swell.

Sure enough, everything was as Gao Yong expected. Like many people who were not worthy of their reputation in the past, Shen Zheng's legend was nothing more than an artificially exaggerated myth. Not long after becoming an insect controller, he was able to kill Hong Jian and vaguely fight against Gao Yong. He was indeed a genius, but he did not reach such a terrifying level.

He could become the powerful legion commander, and he must have relied on Lu Jin's support behind him. But this is also a problem. If he is killed, Lu Jin will definitely be unhappy.

But what's the matter?

Yu Cangming suddenly smiled slightly.

Our Tianhe Country cannot rely solely on the 12th Military Region!
