69 - Four Divisions



Liu Chen touched the wound on his cheek. He saw her bleeding hand after touching her cheek. He immediately smiled as he looked at the person before him, "I can't believe what just happened. Moreover, the one who hurt me turned out to be you, Yong (Wu Anming)"


All the members were still silent in his place. All the pain they received was not even felt. Their gaze was still fixed on Liu Chen. To be exact, the wound that was on his cheek.


Wu Anming was able to attack from underground as it was assisted by Xing Fu who was a person with the earth element. Wu Anming started to get into the ground when Xing Fu made a dome of earth to cover what Wu Anming was going to do. Xing Fu helped Wu Anming by making him an underground passageway.


Then, when Wu Anming came out from underground and attacked Liu Chen, he used the lightning element to speed up the movement. He could only scratch Liu Chen's cheek, as the young man had dodged earlier. If Liu Chen could not dodge it at all, then Liu Chen would get more injuries than those scratches.


The various attacks they had carried out earlier, were actually just for diversion. Although the risk will be many injured, but they still do it. In the end, the hard work and effort they put in came to fruition. It is like saying that effort will not betray results.


General Lin Tian and General Xi Wang immediately approached Liu Chen quickly.


"Are you okay, prince?" said worriedly Xi Wang.


Liu Chen glanced at the two Generals, "I'm fine. After all, this was just a small wound. Why did you guys get that hot? Are you afraid that the Emperor will be angry?", he smiled.


"Of course the Emperor will be angry with us. If the prince is injured" said Lin Tian.


"Help.. This was just a small wound", Liu Chen healed his wound using Qi and in just a few seconds, the wound instantly disappeared without a trace. As if there were never any wounds there.


"You just go back to the corner of the room or out of this room, it's up to you. Most importantly don't bother me" Liu Chen said.


"We'll wait in the corner of the room, prince", both of them back in silence in the corner. As long as they accompanied Liu Chen to train the group members, they were indeed just silent in the corner of the room. They look like displays only.


Liu Chen immediately stared at the members in front of him. He was surprised to see their faces pale. "Hey, what's wrong with you guys?"


Hearing that voice, all the members immediately took a hurried breath. To his surprise, they forgot to breathe.


Seeing that, Liu Chen shook his head and smiled. "It's not in vain that I accompany you to practice for a month. Eventually this exercise came to fruition"


Liu Chen handed out pills to each person according to the wounds they got. After an hour of rest, everyone had already lined up neatly facing Liu Chen.


"Alright, I'll divide you into 4 divisions. After this, the actual training has only just begun" Liu Chen said.


Everyone is surprised. Doesn't that mean fighting Liu Chen all along wasn't actual practice? So how do they exercise?


Liu Chen stared at them sternly, "The four divisions I said were the assault division, the defense division, the assassin division and the information division. Each division will do a different exercise. Then do you want to know, what does this month's training mean?"


Everyone nodded.


"It was done so that I could put you in the appropriate division. Like the person who attacked me silently while fighting, then he will be placed in the information division as well as the assassin division.


Then the stronger person at the time of attack, then I will put him in the attacking division. If that guy is stronger on defense, then I'll put him in the defense division.


The person with the information division was chosen based on your observations on the way I fought and the way the information gathering was useful about me in order to hurt me while fighting.


During this month, I've been observing all the skills you have. How you fight, your abilities, your behavior, all I observe. Especially cooperation and now I have determined what division you will occupy" Liu Chen said firmly.


"Jian (Lao Tzu) will be the leader of the attacking division. Because you're good at commanding your teammates and you can plan pretty well. Then, Duan (Lu Tuoli) would become the leader of the information division. Gong (Feng Ying) will become the leader of the assassin division. Lastly, the leader of the defense division was Hong (Xing Fu). I have already said this to Guang (Zhang Jiangwu) and the other vice-chairmen. They agree with my decision." Liu Chen insisted.


"..if anyone disagrees, raise your hands and give a reasonable reason" Liu Chen continued. He looked at everyone in front of him.


No one responded to Liu Chen's words. Show that they all agree. But suddenly there was one person who raised his hand.


Liu Chen looked at that person where he was Wu Xianlun, the younger brother of Wu Anming. "What is Hua (Wu Xianlun)? Do you disagree with my decision?"


Wu Xianlun became nervous at such a gaze by Liu Chen. "Pulse.. Bu-not that. I-I just want to ask, why did Vice Qiang (Song Quon) not become the leader of one of the divisions?"


Liu Chen was still staring at Wu Xianlun. "That's because Qiang could be said to be the same as a chief. Do you have any other questions?"


"No-no chairman"


Liu Chen turned his gaze back to everyone. "Alright, I'll announce each other's divisions"


Everyone watched Liu Chen closely.


"Listen to my words well. Since I will only say it once and will not repeat", Liu Chen paused for a moment and looked at all the members. Seeing that they were listening to him carefully, Liu Chen continued his words.


"Information division: Yelu,....


Defense division: Dong, Kai, and,...


Assassin division: Hua,...


Assault Division: Yong, Jiao (Zhi Shu),", Liu Chen began to announce the division of each member until completion.


After he finished announcing it, someone immediately raised a hand. Liu Chen glanced at the man. "What's up, Kai?"


Kai is a man who looks to be in his 20s. "I don't agree if I go into the defense division"


Liu Chen frowned and looked at Kai, "Why don't you want to get into the defense division?"


"I don't want to be ruled by that Hong (Xing Fu)" Kai said as he glanced at Xing Fu.


Surely he did not want a single division with Xing Fu, let alone being ruled by him. It was a four-star tournament at the time. He blamed the punishment for Xing Fu.


"What's your excuse?" liu Chen said flatly.


"Because of him, I had to be punished after a four-star tournament last year" Kai said.


"That's because it's your own fault that's causing trouble. So you should be punished. Don't blame others for your own mistakes. If you still blame Hong and don't want to be in the defense division, then I won't hesitate to kill you.


Because I can't get you out of the group and make you spread information about this group. Then the best way is to kill you, even if there is a seal of loyalty to you" Liu Chen said coldly.


Kai swallowed his saliva. If it was during the training, then Liu Chen would be serious with the word. Kai fell silent and lowered his head. As well as the other members, they immediately fell silent and closed their mouths tightly.


"Because of that fucking Kai, Chairman Xun was almost angry. I don't know what Chairman Xun would do, if he got angry when training started "the inner few.


Since Kai did not complain anymore, Liu Chen immediately looked back at the other members. "Well, today you are free to do what you want. You can also leave the base, but before night you should be back. You understand?"


"understand"


Liu Chen walked to the exit. The two demon generals immediately followed Liu Chen's departure. The two glanced at Kai for a moment. But their gazes were very intimidating. Kai who saw that, immediately turned his eyes to the other direction. The two demon generals followed Liu Chen back and did not glance at Kai again.


Some people came straight to Kai.


"Hey, because of you, Chairman Xun is almost angry. What if he was really angry?" say annoyed a woman.


"Right is what he said. It's all your fault, you shouldn't make Chairman Xun angry" one man said.


Kai continues to be reviled by some people who are furious at him. Because of Kai's mistake, Liu Chen was angry.


When he saw Kai being reviled like that, Xing Fu immediately stood in front of him. "Hey, you guys stop. Don't keep blaming him. After all, chairman Xun wasn't really angry"


"Why are you defending that useless Kai?" said a man.


"Yes, you don't have to defend her Hong. He is useless, can only make others angry"


"Hey, you guys have it. The problem is over, so don't extend it anymore" Xing Fu said.


"It's all your fault Hong! All wrong! I was punished back then because of you, now I was scolded by Chairman Xun and again, now everyone is blaming me! It's all because of you, Hong. I hate you! Don't think that if you defend me in front of people, people will make me accept you", Kai goes right out of the practice room.


Xing Fu only sighed, he stared at the person who was cursing at Kai. "You guys, don't prolong the problem"


"Huh!", they immediately went away from Xing Fu.


Xing Fu sighed violently. Then someone patted her on the shoulder, "Don't think about what that person said, especially Kai. He just wanted to blame you for all the mistakes he made himself", that person was Wu Anming.


Xing Fu turned to the side and nodded his head. He remembered something, "By the way, when we attacked Chairman Xun, I saw there was a chain with a sharp tip. Who's that belong to? It can't be Yelu. Because what I know, the chain of hers can only bind"


Wu Anming was also reminded of the fierce fight earlier against Liu Chen. He saw a chain with a sharp end like a scorpion's tail. He shook his head, "I don't know"


On the other hand, Kai went to the garden that was in the room. He sat in one of the chairs there.


"Why does everyone always blame me?! Why, why?!" muttered.


"For you, your father died. It's much better if you just die! "


"It's all your fault! You useless child!"


"Ha-hahaha isn't that what you wanted mom, but why do you blame me for dad's death, haha is so funny", Kai's face looks frustrated with tears that start to wet his cheeks.


"Don't you want me to kill? Then why are you angry, mother, father? Why do you blame my father's death on me, mother?"


A chain with a sharp tip like a scorpion's tail came out from the ground and destroyed the plants around.


"Hiks.. Why am I always blamed?" mumbling Kai.


The chain chains grew more and more and smashed around the room with bruntal.


Unwittingly, there was someone who was right in front of the garden room door, observing Kai. "Huf.. He has a hereditary ability. But unfortunately he can't control that ability. Though he can be a powerful weapon" he murmured.


He got out of there very quickly. No one is aware of its existence. Because around is also quiet.


The next day, all the members had gathered in the field. They were waiting for Liu Chen. After waiting, Liu Chen finally came with the two Generals.


Actually the members were very curious about the identity of the two people who had always followed Liu Chen. Moreover, the two people had always referred to Liu Chen as 'prince'. Yet no one dared to ask about the identity of the two.


Liu Chen didn't just come with Xi Wang and Lin Tian. However he also came with Zhang Jiangwu, Song Quon, Lu Tuoli and Feng Ying.


"Jian (Lao Tzu) and Hong (Xing Fu) came forward and stood near Gong (Feng Ying)" Liu Chen said.


Xing Fu and Lao Tzu instantly obeyed Liu Chen's words. Lao Tzu stood beside Feng Ying. While Xing Fu was beside Lao Tzu.


"Members with defense divisions lined up in front of Hong. Then the members with the attacking division, lined up in front of Jian. The assassin division stood in front of Gong and lastly, the information division stood in front of Duan (Lu Tuoli)" Liu Chen said.


Instantly, everyone separated themselves according to their respective divisions.


"Killer division, you will be trained by your division chief, Gong. Same with the information division. You will be trained by your division chief, Duan.


The defense division will be trained by General Xi. Isn't that so, General?", Liu Chen glanced at General Xi Wang with a smile.


General Xi Wang sighed, he nodded. He actually had to do this because of Liu Chen's wishes. His job was to look after Liu Chen. But why should he now train this child?!


Liu Chen looked towards the attacking division. "Then you attack division, will be trained by General Lin. Didn't you?", Liu Chen glanced at General Lin Tian and smiled.


General Lin Tian smiled and nodded. After getting the nod of General Lin Tian, Liu Chen looked towards the four divisions again.


Although General Lin Tian smiled, but inwardly sighed. "Our goal is to protect the prince. But why did we become the babysitter of this snot? " the interior.


The members were quite astonished to hear Liu Chen mention Xi Wang and Lin Tian as 'General'. But no one dared to ask.


"In this way, then I can break free from General Xi and General Lin "inner Liu Chen while chuckling softly.

A few days had now passed after the division of each person. There is no day without training for the members. Everyone is practicing continuously.


"Don't be too stiff in swinging a sword. Notice how I swung it" General Lin Tian said.

"You must attack Chairman Xun silently. It's a training to kill. Don't let him realize what you're going to do. You did it with the intention of killing Chairman Xun. You understand?" said Feng Ying.


"understand!"
