Jiang Chen’s sudden question made the people present dumbstruck.

The youngster, who hadn’t stopped scorning, looked surprised by the unexpected response, as well. Then he beamed.

“Yeah, that’s right. I’m from the Direct Battalion,” the youngster said.

“So, can you shut up?” Jiang Chen said seriously.

The air was immediately charged with tension. Not only the new young generals, but also the commanders of the eight battalions and even the muscular general, were surprised.

“Say that again.” said the youngster in a threatening tone, coming up to him.

“You heard me perfectly.” Jiang Chen was fearless, his look sharp.

The youngster’s face became sullen. Closing his fist, he said in a cold voice, “You know who I am?”

“Nope.”

The youngster smiled without speaking. Someone behind him came forward immediately and said, “Xie Yan’s father is the Baron of the Ning State. His ancestors contributed a lot to the establishment of the dynasty. How dare you speak so presumptuously to him!”

It was a woman with colorful spiritual armor. She looked like a pretty bird in it.

Jiang Chen took a professional look at the two’s armor, then let out a long sigh.

To make them more pleasing to the eye, the armor’s material had been sacrificed.

To be more precise, the material of their spiritual armor was supposed to have been used to fabricate class-five or class-six armor, but theirs had turned out worse than class two.

“You’re only an ordinary member of the Direct Battalion in the army, but you insulted a general of the seventh rank in public. What do the military regulations say in this case?!”

Jiang Chen knew that guy had a special background, but he didn’t care.

The people around him were as shocked as if they had seen a ghost after hearing him.

“Is he stupid or what?”

Jiang Chen might have made sense, but in others’ eyes, he was courting death.

“According to the military regulations, it’s ten strokes with a wooden plank!” Xie Yan told him the punishment, then extended his hands. Staring at Jiang Chen, he said, “Come on, punish me!”

Then he put his hands on Jiang Chen’s chest and gave the latter a hard push.

Jiang Chen took several steps back.

A guy from the Direct Battalion had provoked a lieutenant of the seventh rank in public. Many people were struck with curiosity, wondering what would happen next.

As Xie Yan had said, no one had the nerve to do anything to him.

Behind him, the other disciples, either from the royal family or aristocratic families, showed disdainful smiles. In their eyes, Jiang Chen was too naive.

“From now on, you’re officially the lieutenant of the Red Flame Battalion,” the commander of the Red Flame Battalion suddenly said. “In the army, generals have the right to punish soldiers of lower ranks who have done something wrong.”

She didn’t need Jiang Chen to take the test anymore. Although she had been emotionless while speaking, the whole world knew she had done so only because she hated to see Xie Yan’s arrogance. She had given Jiang Chen an excuse to do something to Xie Yan.

The question was whether Jiang Chen had the nerve to do it!

With an annoying “punch me” expression on his attractive face, Xie Yan said to Jiang Chen, “Come on. Punish me if you can.”

Bang!

Jiang Chen’s response was a punch to Xie Yan that made a loud noise.

The bystanders couldn’t help but exclaim. “So this guy really is an idiot.”

That was what people thought.

Xie Yan had been on guard against Jiang Chen’s attack, but he hadn’t expected the latter to be so fast. Covering his right eye, his face contorted in agony.

“I’ve never heard anyone make such a request. This was the first time, so I had to oblige you,” Jiang Chen said in dead earnest.

“How dare you hit Apprentice Brother Xie Yan!” The woman in colorful armor went into a rage. Without giving Jiang Chen any chance to speak, she extended her hand to slap his face.

“What’s the punishment for attacking a general?” Jiang Chen grasped the woman’s arm easily. He gripped her arm so tightly that she couldn’t even move.

“Beating with a wooden plank.”

“Okay!”

Jiang Chen gripped her arm harder so that she lost control of her own body and turned around. A wooden plank suddenly appeared in his hand, which he used to hit her hard on the *ss.

It hurt so much that she burst into tears, even though she was wearing armor.

But Jiang Chen wouldn’t stop. He gave her a second hit.

“How dare you!” Xie Yan came to himself. He drew out his sword and recklessly threw it at Jiang Chen.

“Look at yourself in the mirror before you look down on others.”

Jiang Chen shook his head and smiled helplessly after tasting Xie Yan’s attack.

These disciples from aristocratic families were much worse than those with golden fight loops. It was only because of their backgrounds that they were allowed to do whatever they wanted.

Xie Yan lost hold on his weapon under Jiang Chen’s fist attack. The latter gave him another punch on the stomach. He bent down like a curved shrimp due to the pain.

Then Jiang Chen took a step forward. He turned the plank to give Xie Yan a hard hit on his butt.

Although it was only a wooden plank, injected with his strength, it was as hard as iron. In addition, spiritual armor couldn’t reduce its power.

The same as the woman, Xie Yan laid on his stomach after screaming.

The new guys had no idea how noble the two were. They just felt like cheering at seeing Jiang Chen beating them.

But those from the eight battalions had complicated expressions. Their looks were extremely odd.

Xie Yan was the son of the Baron of the Ning State. The woman was called Liu Yu, and her father was a general, her mother a princess.

The two were from such prominent families, but Jiang Chen had beaten them so overwhelmingly. If the royal government heard about it, it would create a huge disturbance.

Jiang Chen’s savageness intimidated the other disciples from aristocratic families. Without the nerve to keep speaking loudly, they could do nothing but watch Jiang Chen’s plank falling on Xie Yan and Liu Yu while the two screamed tragically.

That general hadn’t said a word during the whole process, but he had an unnoticeable smile on his face.

The Direct Battalion to which these people belonged wasn’t under his jurisdiction. He was a general, but only a general of first rank of the secondary class.

A general with a higher rank wouldn’t have come over for such a trifle, so he was wondering what the senior general would think when he heard the news.

Jiang Chen was pretty fair. He gave ten strokes to both of them, no more and no less, but the two couldn’t even get to their feet again.

“How dare you scorn others? I feel pity for you, although you’re from aristocratic families,” Jiang Chen sneered at them. Then he threw the plank on the ground and walked towards the Red Flame Battalion.

“Let’s wait and see!”

Their companions helped them up. They looked at Jiang Chen in anger, wishing they could bite him.

However, as soon as Jiang Chen looked back, they were given such a good scare that they hurried to signal for those beside them to lift them away.

“All right. That’s it.”

After confirming that all of the eight battalions had picked their men, the general left, eager to report what had happened there.

By then, Jiang Chen found he was the only one who had chosen to join the Red Flame Battalion.

“Commander, if you don’t try to put yourself out there, no one will join,” Jiang Chen proposed.

“There could have been two or three more, but I guess no one wanted to join us after this farce,” said the commander of the Red Flame Battalion.

Jiang Chen was stunned. He didn’t understand what she had meant.

“Commander, I got your permission, didn’t I?” Jiang Chen asked.

The commander of the Red Flame Battalion gave him a look. Rolling her pretty almond eyes, she asked him, “Did you?”
