Chapter 161: Piranha Attack

Ratatatata…

Waves of semi-automatic gunfire roared through the air. The recruits, who were sleeping soundly, opened their eyes in the same moment. The recruits on the ground fared better, standing straight up like a carp.

The recruits who slept atop the trees nearly forgot that they had been sleeping on the trees when they woke up. Quite a few people simply fell off the trees. Fortunately, these people possessed decent martial strength. Practically all were barely able to secure a safe landing.

“Softies, good morning y’all. Yesterday you guys were extremely brave. You displayed quite the vigor. I really like this sort of vigor, therefore…” Satan smile carried a bit of malevolence. He dragged out his tone and said, “Today, this boss has prepared for you all a richer training to feast upon. I hope that you all will continue to maintain yesterday’s vigor. All you all will go into the ocean for this boss right now! Your breakfast for this morning is in the ocean! Whatever you catch is whatever you eat! If you have the ability, you can eat shark. If you don’t have the ability, then you can just eat sand!”

“Reporting as ordered, sir! I don’t know how to swim! Can I go searching on land for food?”

A recruit used a very resonant voice to ask the question.

“You do not know how to swim?” Satan smile could not be described as that of happiness. He used his two glistening blue eyes to sweep over the rest of the recruits. “Is there anyone else who doesn’t know how to swim?”

“Reporting as ordered, sir. I don’t know how to swim either!”

“Are there any more people who do not know how to swim?”

….

A sheet of silence fell over the recruits. Satan clicked his tongue without end. “What a pity. There are only two. It really is too much of a pity.”

As soon as his voice fell, a dozen or so seasoned soldiers encircled upon the recruits. They simply heaved the two recruits away, taking large strides towards the coast.

“You… what are you guys up to?”

“Commanding officer, what are you doing…?”

“What am I doing?” Satan patted his bright and hairless head. “As your commanding officer, this boss has an obligation to teach you guys how to swim. If I am unable to teach you guys, then I’ll simply have you guys drown. That will save this boss from losing face.”

Satan brought his attention back to Qin Fen and the others. “The rest of you will immediately go and eat breakfast for this boss! Next, there are much more scorching travel items at Happy Paradise Island. I am awaiting the time when you will all experience them for yourself.”

The recruits didn’t have oxygen tanks, nor did they have swimmer flippers, nor did they have the most basic of diving goggles at all. What could they even catch under the ocean? Seaweed?

The recruits stood on the silver beach. They looked at the ocean before them, where dust floated indeterminately on the surface. They then looked at the seasoned soldiers behind them, who carried guns, and they took helpless steps toward the ocean.

The two recruits who didn’t know how to swim were even more screwed. They sat in a small boat, which had traveled a distance out into the ocean, before being tossed into the deep blue ocean waters.

“Help! Save me! I really don’t know how to swim!”

“Commanding officer… what you are doing is murder…”

The two recruits, who didn’t know how to swim, shrieked over and over. Their voices were loud enough to be heard over the rumbling ocean waves.

A seasoned soldier by Satan’s side whispered to Satan’s ear at this time. “Captain, the ocean piranhas are all in place.”

“Excellent!” Satan became quite excited. “Then give the signal to release them. Let the bodies of this group of softies have a bit more wounds. Each and every one of them has soft skin and tender flesh. How are they soldiers?”

A dozen seconds passed, and the tragic screams of the two recruits who didn’t know how to swim cut through the darkness of the night sky before the morning dawn.

“Ahhhh! Fish are biting me!”

“Ahhh! I was bitten by fish too!”

“Me too…”

Within the ocean, the miserable shrieks of the recruits rose and fell again and again.

In the end, recruits who understood aquatic wildlife quite well roared loudly. “Piranhas! The piranha from the South American oceans! How in the world can they appear here? They should not be able to live here for long at all!”

“The South American piranha?” Qin Fen stabbed the gills of a piranha and exerted force, simply squeezing the struggling piranha to death. At the same time, he extended his other hand to stab a different piranha. In this narrow body of water, there were at least a dozen or so piranhas.

Lin Ling moved even more viciously than Qin Fen. Every time she made a move, she simply and completely squeezed the body of a piranha to pieces. She ignored the fact that the explosive burst of blood would draw many more piranhas.

“Look at my Azure Lightning of Wild Waters!”

In the ocean, a recruit was completely furious by the attacks of the piranha. He simply activated his own neo martial art, and an enormous electric current simply and thoroughly electrocuted to death all the piranhas within a five meters radius of his body.

After this recruit made such a move, other recruits immediately followed and using their own moves.

“Thousand Mile Icebound!”

Within a half meter radius of this recruit, the temperature of the water rapidly decreased. The piranhas, which had been lively, immediately went sluggish.

Qin Fen was given a fright by this Thousand Mile Icebound. It looked like quite a few of these recruits came from families that were rich and powerful!

The neo martial art Thousand Mile Icebound was very different from the paleo martial art Frigid Ice True Energy! The Thousand Mile Icebound involved controlling nitrogen! The first thing the practitioner must do was install a nitrogen control device within his body. The surgical costs alone were sufficient to bankrupt a middle-class family ten times over without end.

“Motherfucker! Why is the training in the ocean instead of the desert?” Recruit complained loudly. “My Magma Art is of no use here!”

“Help! Save me! I’m going to drown…”

Satan looked at the chaotic mess that occurred on the surface of the ocean. He found things to be even more hilarious and bellowed out with laughter. “You guys should be thanking me, you know. I was scared that you all would eat seaweed, so I deliberately prepared some tasty fish meat for you. Of course, it is up to you all whether or not you will eat the fish or if the fish will eat you.”

Fifteen minutes was not a lot of time. By the time the recruits returned back to shore, they felt more tired than they usually felt after a day of normal recruit training.

The piranha of the South American oceans had speed so quick that it was out of the norm. Even when the recruits utilized their martial arts, the water restricted their movements. They were at a disadvantage!

Quite a few people had several bite wounds on their bodies. The only fortunate thing was that the male recruits all paid extreme attention to their own family jewels. In the end, not a single person became qualified to cultivate in the Sunflower Scripture.

As for the one and only female, Lin Ling, she walked out from the ocean with a blood-stained body.

The recruits who were closer to her in the ocean nearly died from stupefaction from seeing her move. At least a hundred and fifty South American ocean piranhas floated dead around this woman’s body.

She was a terrifying freak of nature. What was truly hard for people to accept was the fact that this fierce and hot woman was never bitten by a piranha even once from the moment she encountered her first piranha to the moment she slaughtered her last piranha.

Of course, the most freakish people were still Du Peng and Du Zhanpeng.

The Phaseless Water Bird Fist was known to be a super slicing fighting technique. However, very few people were able to see just what it’s true power was like. Today Du Peng let everyone expand their worldview. Not a single piranha corpse around his body was intact. Every piece of corpse was flat and smooth, as of they had been sliced by a surgeon’s knife.

Compared to Du Peng, Du Zhanpeng’s Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Art was far more terrifying. He reduced the performance with his Seven Stars Falling Finger that told everyone what an exploding corpse meant. He also told everyone that he hadn’t used his complete combat power when he had fought against Du Peng a day ago.

The dead fish that had been struck by the Seven Stars Falling Finger had marks beneath their scales as if tiny mice were bashing sideways and colliding straight on underneath. Places bulged out here and there before ultimately exploding.

Qin Fen had also seen that mystical scene. It was just that he didn’t understand. The piranha didn’t have acupuncture points on its body, right? How had Du Zhanpeng been able to accomplish things to such a degree? Just what in the world was the theory of the Seven Stars of Immortal Thunder Art? It was actually able to cause even fish to explode internally like this.

The fish that floated around Du Zhanpeng’s body had truly died without even leaving an intact corpse. In comparison, the slaughter of nearly a hundred piranha was an achievement that didn’t appear that dazzling.

“Captain, it looks like’s Lin Ling, Du Zhanpeng, and Du Peng—those three—are the strongest among them, right?”

Satan heard his own subordinate ask such a question, and he didn’t immediately respond with an answer. Instead, he faced Qin Fen with a roar. “Slippery little kid, toss this boss two of the fish in your hands. This boss hasn’t eaten yet either.”

Qin Fen had no other option. This person he faced was none other than the drill instructor who had the highest position here.

Satan caught the two fish that were tossed over. He used the military wilderness survival knife on his waist to cut them open and carefully inspect the corpse of the piranha fishes.

There was not a hint of an injury with the organs of the entire piranha fish. Only the brain of the fish had been jolted into two halves by true energy. The eyes of the fish, closest to the fish’s brain, didn’t receive any impact of energy at all. And not a single eye protruded out, a typical display when receiving power.

The two piranha fishes had died in the exact same manner. And the degree of damage to the fishes’ brains was completely the same as well. The seasoned soldier that stood next to Satan’s side had his entire body freeze up. Satan’s expression turned from that of relaxation to graveness as well.

The degree of control and precision over true energy had already reached a high and incomparably shocking level to be able to purely jolt and kill a fish in such a way. When faced with the attacks of a hundred piranhas, Qin Fen’s two hands had attacked endlessly. During this time, Qin Fen was actually able to continue maintaining such accurate control over power. That was a totally different concept of another realm!

“This kid…” Seasoned soldier’s eyes were so wide that they were practically vertical. “His… his precision when it comes to controlling power is even higher than me, someone at the meteor level? T-This kid…”

The lips of Satan’s mouth slowly split open once more as a somewhat ugly smile reemerged on his face. “This batch of people are the strongest in terms of martial strength. Excluding the three you just said, Qin Fen should be among them. When looking at who has the strongest comprehensive strength, it is probably hard to tell who it is between Qin Fen, Lin Ling, and Du Zhanpeng, right?”

The seasoned soldier nodded, being very much in agreement. Qin Fen and Lin Ling were practically both all-rounder type recruits. Du Zhanpeng was inferior to those two in terms of being an all-rounder. However, his charisma was something these two recruits didn’t possess. To be able to gather the majority of the recruits in such a short time yesterday, as well as lead in a successful counterattack, were things that normal recruits absolutely couldn’t do.

“Well, it is interesting this way.” Satan tossed away the dead fish in his hands. “Next, I will let you all wish you were dead.”

Time flew by, and the recruits who had entered Happy Paradise Island engaged in a wholehearted training state. They completely forgot the passage of time. What should have been an extremely unendurable two weeks passed by in what they felt was like the blink of an eye.

Satan’s training methods were extremely simple. They could be summarized in two words—real combat.
