Tempest of the Stellar War - Chapter 269

Chapter 269: Action!

Instantly, the whole canteen fell silent . Some people had started to pre-emptively move the benches away . It seemed as though the situation was escalating into a fight .

At this moment, Zhang Shan stood out with a crash . "Hey, you sure have a big mouth . How come your results are so poor, huh? All talk, no action . "

The moment his words rang out, Atos flew out of his seat with a clatter . He had been waiting for Zhang Shan to rise up and had been holding in his strength . He immediately used his Ability X and, in the blink of an eye, appeared before Zhang Shan .

In that instant, Zhang Shan felt a sharp, oppressive force rush towards him .

Atos was not one who could take insults . He understood how it was going to play out . Did Qiu Si think he could hold him in line with his heavy-handed cancelling of Lie Xin and Achilles' leadership status? Really? Were the Mars and Moon factions going to continue to take this lying down? Besides, he hated the mundane training . They could go on without him .

He might as well go out with a bang and give Zhang Shan a good beating . He wanted to see if they would really disqualify the whole lot of them .

If the Solar System wanted to make a name for itself in IG, they needed Achilles and the Eight Stars . No one else could do it .

BANG…

Zhang Shan did not see it coming clearly, but he felt a fiery, stinging pain . Atos' ability, superspeed! This was why he was part of the team – it was an important ability .

In that instant, he slapped Zhang Shan in the face and followed it with a kick that sent Zhang Shan flying back .

BANG! In an instant, Zhang Shan's fire had been lit . Military rules and discipline had vanished . There was only one thought in his mind: f*ck him!

BANG . Zhang Shan pounced forward, a hand outstretched towards Atos .

Atos looked at him with contempt . That kind of speed? Even a tortoise crawled faster .

Yet at this time, Zhang Shan's body distorted violently and he disappeared .

Displacement, but what would be the most advantageous location he would appear at?

He activated his superspeed once again . In the same instant, Zhang Shan leaped down from mid-air, towards what would have been Atos' back . Yet in that moment, Atos had already circled behind Zhang Shan again .

In a straight fight, Atos' ability trumped Zhang Shan's . Furthermore, Zhang Shan's ability use was still not fully mature, and he immediately suffered a couple of kicks . Atos was purposely humiliating Zhang Shan, and he sent another slap whistling towards his face .

In that instant, a figure exploded over like a hurricane, sweeping Atos away .

Zhang Runan!

"I'll even fight you with one hand, you flea," Zhang Runan stated coldly .

There was no movement from the Moon faction, and Taros stood up . "Unfair numbers? You gotta run that past me first . "

As he spoke, Taros made his move with no intention of hearing anybody out .

BANG . Someone at Taros' level could stand against Zhang Runan even without Ability X . At this moment, his eyes flashed, clearly using his Ability X . He appeared in front of Zhang Runan, clamping down on her shoulder, but a huge wave of force roiled up at him .

BANG…

Zhang Runan had lashed out with a foot and Taros had fallen . He had not anticipated that . Her ability was not rigid but fairly adaptable and flexible .

Atos had already leaped for the unprotected back of Zhang Runan's head when a huge force came his way . BANG…

Atos was kicked away, flying over 10 meters and slamming into the wall .

Wang Zheng had intervened .

"Atos, you backstabber . If you want to die, just say the word . "

Fighting was no big deal, especially in military school . Unhappiness was settled with a quick scuffle, but Atos had no boundaries .

Achilles blocked his way with a cold smile . "Wang Zheng, you talk too much . "

As he spoke, an enormous wave of energy shrouded the entire place . Achilles had made his move .

Atos crawled up from the ground, wiping blood from his mouth . "Boss, if you want to be the gentleman, you gotta choose carefully as well . This bunch of trash are only fit to be slaves . Benevolent leadership be damned, the victor is the king . Whoever is strongest should be the leader . These Earthlings only know how to play dirty, but they are weak!"

"Atos, you can eat rubbish, but don't talk rubbish . If you're not convinced, I'll beat you with both hands tied behind my back," Lear said .

"Boss, you need not concern yourself with trash like this . I'll clean it up with a few moves . " Luo Fei loved hitting someone when they were already down .

As they spoke, Atos' eyes gleamed again . His Ability X reached a peak, and he rushed towards Wang Zheng, stabbing towards his eyes .

Ching…

His profile was frozen . Atos' fingers had been pincered by Wang Zheng . The speed of the attack confounded the eye, and the onlookers could not clearly catch what was going on, yet Wang Zheng had accurately blocked it .

Crack .

With an anguished scream, Atos' two fingers had been snapped .

Wang Zheng patted Atos on the cheek lightly . "Boy, it's dangerous to play with fingers . "

He then threw Atos away, completely ignoring the Moon crowd . No one expected such ruthlessness from Wang Zheng . Although Atos played rough, in consideration of Achilles, nobody dared to go too overboard .

"Impressive . You've been holding back on us . Looks like I really have to experience it for myself," Achilles said coolly . Clearly the Sun God was starting to get angry .

Achilles was more serious than they had ever seen him before . He took a deep breath . Taros was right . These were not Moon people, and he had clearly been using the wrong approach . In that case, it was time to show them the stick instead of the carrot .

Masasi shook his head . He had wanted to intervene before, but things had now come to a stage out of his control .

Wang Zheng smiled . "The esteemed name of the Sun God . But the name isn't too good . The sun means ri… are you telling others that you're qian ri?" [T/N ri literally mean day, but also a slang for f*cking, and qian ri is an insult, asking to be f*cked] 

Zhang Shan's eyes gleamed . He clenched his fists and moved up wordlessly to back Wang Zheng up . Meng Tian also moved up quietly . The temperature of the place was rapidly dropping .

Lie Xin clapped her hands . "Achilles, your guy was too dirty . He holds nothing back in his insults and doesn't fight head on . Besides, a couple of blows would be harmless enough, but to gouge at the eyes is really too much, isn't it?"

Raston lazily shrugged his shoulders . "Looks like there aren't too many gentlemen on the Moon these days . "

In a short while, Lie Xin had made up her mind . This was no time to sit back and hope they would destroy each other . If she finished Achilles now, she would be number one .

Achilles stared at Lie Xin with a cruel smile . "I, and only I, can lead the Solar System Federation to break out of the cycle . It seems like I've mollycoddled you all for too long . "

"On Mars, those that brag so much normally see their teeth punched out . " Lie Xin stood up with an evil grin .

Achilles' eyes suddenly exploded with silver moonlight . What a fearsome spirit!

His unfathomable strength became a revolution of energy that permeated the entire space . Pressure like a huge mountain bore down on everybody's bodies, and they could not move!
