Looking at the 73 trainees rooted stiffly on the mountain top, half of them had been stripped down to nothing but a single pair of shorts.
At this moment, all of them had bloodshot eyes and were glaring furiously at Jiang Nan, especially Xiang Zu, who looked ready to explode with rage.
What kind of ability is a sneak attack?
If you have the guts, fight me fair and square. I refuse to accept this.
Jiang Nan’s gaze settled on Xiang Zu, then swept across the whole group.
“You all look extremely unconvinced, don’t you?”
The trainees gritted their teeth. Paralysed, they could only make muffled woo-woo sounds and could not speak.
Jiang Nan spoke calmly. “I gave you chances, more than one, and you still proved useless.”
“I handed you all the information. Where are the tactics you spent the whole afternoon discussing? Where is the coordination? All I saw was a swarm of headless flies.”
“A single middle finger enraged you this much? Really?”
At these words, many trainees went pale as they suddenly recalled the afternoon’s tactical meeting.
But rage had overtaken them, and they had forgotten everything.
Jiang Nan turned to Wang Zhan. “You thought your ability was very strong, didn’t you? Very confident, weren’t you?”
“What is truly powerful is never the ability, it is the person. Your copying ability relies most heavily on teamwork. With proper coordination, there was actually a chance to copy my spatial ability.”
“Yet you decided to show off alone? Wrapping your hands in bandages looked cool, did it?”
“You took a royal flush and played it into rubbish.”
Wang Zhan clenched his teeth, his face flushed red from Jiang Nan’s scolding. He clearly recognised his own shortcomings.
He understood perfectly well that Jiang Nan’s training had already begun, even if the methods were somewhat brutal.
But they could genuinely learn from it.
Jiang Nan paced with his little hands behind his back until he stood in front of Xiang Zu, narrowing his eyes. “You’re very unconvinced? You think my sneak attack was dishonourable?”
“Are you also thinking that if I gave you one more chance, you would definitely do this or that?”
Two veins bulged on Xiang Zu’s forehead, his face full of fury.

Jiang Nan patted his cheek. “Wake up, brother. If this had been a real battlefield, you would all be dead by now.”
“Who would give you a second chance? The enemy? You only have one life.”
“Fair duel? Have you been staying in the academy so long that you’ve gone stupid?”
“What is wrong with ambush, assassination, poisoning, kidnapping? Solve the opponent in the simplest, most direct way possible.”
At this moment, every trainee stared blankly at Jiang Nan. Their ingrained ideas had been completely shattered.
Jiang Nan continued. “You cannot stay in the academy forever. With this level and these naive, childish notions, how do you expect to compete out there?”
“Why did you become spirit warriors? Just to show off in the academy?”
“This is a mad era. Understand clearly the responsibility you carry on your shoulders.”
At this moment, no one on the mountain top spoke, and none could speak.
For the first time, they truly felt from the bottom of their hearts that this training was worth attending.
Although Jiang Nan was a billion points devilish, he was genuinely an excellent instructor.
Jiang Nan calculated the time. There should be just over a minute left before the paralysis wore off.
Then he flashed a brilliant smile. “Of course, this is not a battlefield, so I can give you plenty of chances.”
“Reflect properly, then come at me again. I hope next time you won’t be so rubbish. Best if you can satisfy me.”
“Otherwise, in 24 hours, what awaits you will be true hell.”
Everyone swallowed hard. They watched Jiang Nan take a deep breath. “Burning Blood. Emperor Engine, activate!”
In an instant, his heartbeat soared, and his physical functions skyrocketed.
The trainees looked shocked. What was God Nan about to do?
He had not even used Burning Blood during the hundred-person battle, yet now he was activating it?
“Eight Gates Dunjia! Seventh Gate of Shock! Open!”
Double buffs stacked. His aura pierced the heavens.
Jiang Nan reached out, grabbed one person’s waistband, and grinned brightly.
“Woo hoo!!!”
That trainee’s face filled with terror.
Jiang Nan said, “(･᷄ᴗ･᷅) Don’t be afraid. I’m just purely sending you on your way.”
With that, he gripped the waistband, took three steps for momentum, twisted his hips, and hurled the trainee violently outward.
The person shot out like a cannonball, even producing a sonic boom in the air.
In a flash, he vanished thousands of metres away.
[Resentment value from Wang Fak +1000!]
[From…]
At this moment, every paralysed trainee on the mountain top went pale.
Human javelin, really?
You weren’t serious during the group fight, but now you’re serious for throwing javelins?
And you even activated two buffs?
How far are we going to be thrown? You created a sonic boom?
We take back what we said earlier. Jiang Nan really is a devil after all.
Devil instructor.
Yet at this moment, Jiang Nan had already seized another waistband and hurled again with momentum.
Rip!
The person flew out, but Jiang Nan stared stiffly at the shorts left in his hand.
“Ah ha, ah haha. What kind of rubbish shorts are these? Ten yuan for three at a street stall?”
[Resentment value from Liu Xiete +1000!]
[From…]
Jiang Nan grinned. “Next time, I recommend you wear Hulk-brand shorts that I sell. Guaranteed no such embarrassing situations.”
The trainees frozen in place all went pale.
I knew you were doing it on purpose. You just want to sell us your shorts.
Don’t come any closer.
Yet no matter how much they resisted, they could not escape their fate as human javelins.
Finally, after ripping nine pairs of shorts, all 73 javelins on the mountain top had been thrown.
Jiang Nan clapped his hands, teleported onto Little Dimple’s back.
“Let’s go. We’ll have a barbecue. Grill some skewers to send to Xuexue, Wu Liang, and the others.”
“Okay, Master. Little Dimple will start the fire for you later.”
…
Ye Xingxuan carried He Jia and landed beside a pool. She glanced back, saw Jiang Nan was not pursuing, and breathed a sigh of relief.
“Come on, Jiajia. Let’s find a place to hide. Once the 24 hours are up, hehe.”
He Jia asked weakly, “Sister Xingxuan, is it really okay for us to do this?”
Ye Xingxuan patted her chest. “Absolutely. This lady is exactly this lacking in fighting spirit and ambition.”
Just as they were about to hide, a whoosh came from the sky.
A blurred object hurtled towards them at extreme speed.
Ye Xingxuan: Σ(ŎﾛŎ|||)ﾉﾉ
“This… this is a person? What’s going on?”
At that moment, the calm pool exploded with water. A golden nine-star Koro crocodile over twenty metres long burst out.
Its eyes gleamed as it looked at the human shape flying straight towards it, absolutely delighted.
Food really falling from the sky?
And already skinned? This is perfect.
It opened its bloody maw wide, tilting 45 degrees towards the sky.
Liu Xiete was terrified. After his long flight, he was finally about to land.
Why is there a crocodile below with its mouth open waiting? Damn it.
I’m a javelin meant to pierce the earth, not food for you.
[Resentment value from Liu Xiete +1000!]
[From…]
God Nan, can you be any more vicious?
I’m completely paralysed and can’t move at all.
Liu Xiete fell in utter despair into the crocodile’s mouth, sliding smoothly down its throat and straight into its stomach.
Koro crocodile: (*^口^*)
Is this the taste of happiness?
Ye Xingxuan, who had witnessed everything from the side, was stunned.
Thrown here by God Nan?
Does he have to be this accurate?
Are you a zookeeper coming to feed the animals? Those are trainees, not feed.
Yet within seconds, more than a dozen white dots appeared in the sky.
The Koro crocodile was moved to tears, actual crocodile tears.
It lay in the pool, flexibly adjusting its huge mouth to different angles, precisely catching the human javelins Jiang Nan threw.
Haha, more already-skinned ones?
This is wonderful.
Eh? This one isn’t skinned. Bad review, bad review.
After eating 18 breakfast treats, the Koro crocodile let out a satisfied burp.
(⌯꒪꒫꒪⌯) Burp.
Yet right after the burp, its belly suddenly split open with a huge gash.
The 18 javelins crawled out in a sorry state, knelt on the ground, and vomited wildly.
We’ve never been inside anyone’s stomach in our lives.
Yet today God Nan fed us to a crocodile?
Every one of them was furious.
We can’t beat God Nan, but can we not beat a crocodile?
They rushed up and gave the Koro crocodile a savage beating.
“Don’t you know that food falling from the sky can kill a crocodile?”
“You shouldn’t randomly eat food thrown by tourists. Don’t you have any self-awareness?”
“Beat it to death. Brothers, skin it and make shorts out of it.”
“Eh? That’s a good idea.”
Koro crocodile: (;´༎ຶ⌓༎ຶ`)
Ye Xingxuan rolled her eyes. Can’t beat God Nan, so they bully the crocodile instead.
I refuse to hang around with a bunch of people wearing crocodile-skin pants.
She quickly took He Jia and left to find a safer hiding place.
Meanwhile, Xiang Zu, after his long flight through the air, was blown by the wind until he could not open his eyes.
He shot straight towards a massive earthy-yellow lump on a cliff.
Boom!
His whole body plunged into the lump.
Xiang Zu was stunned. Why doesn’t it hurt? Is the rock wall this soft?
What is this sweet fragrance? What’s buzzing in my ears? Am I getting tinnitus?
Curious, he opened his eyes.
Golden honey dripped before him. Looking around, he saw hexagonal honeycomb cells everywhere.
Hundreds of egg-sized hornets with red eyes flew around him.
Their stingers twisted at their rear, and they all charged at Xiang Zu.

Queen bee: (ꐦᵒ̌皿ᵒ̌) Buzz buzz buzz!
(Brothers! Stab him! Stab him to death!)
In an instant, the swarm responded. Their sharp, cold stingers aimed at Xiang Zu and stung madly.
Still under the paralysis effect, Xiang Zu could not move at all.
Terror filled his eyes.
Woo woo woo!!!
[Resentment value from Xiang Zu +1000!]
