Chapter 973: Chapter 1114: I Will Stand Up for Myself

Li Yifei had gone through hell and high water to retrieve something, only to be harassed by the captain of the so-called Battle Bear Squad upon his arrival; this filled him with true rage. Rarely did he ever get this angry, even when facing the most cunning of enemies and their insults, he could remain calm.

But this time was different. It was in his own country, within the military of his own country, to be treated like this was an even greater humiliation than what the enemy could impose. As the captain of the Golden Eagle, Li Yifei had his own pride and he wouldn’t allow some nobody to dishonor him.

At that moment, the guy smirked and said, "Golden Eagle, you’d better wise up. You’re no longer in the military; you’re just an ordinary citizen now. If you dare to defy my orders here, I could execute you on the spot, and no one would stand up for you."

Li Yifei glared at the guy, bellowed in a loud voice, "I don’t need anyone to stand up for me. I’ll stand up for myself. I want to see who dares to stop me!" He then strode aggressively towards the guy.

A powerful fighting spirit burst forth from Li Yifei. If the guy didn’t back off, Li Yifei was absolutely not going to hesitate to make a move, and certainly wasn’t going to pull any punches.

This guy had heard of the legendary reputation of the Golden Eagle and knew that he was not someone to be trifled with. But considering they were at the premises of his Battle Bear Squad, with more than fifty elite squad members present, he figured that even with Golden Eagle’s fame, these fifty-plus men should be able to take down Li Yifei.

Although he was arrogant, he didn’t actually have any real skill. Immediately, he took a step back and barked, "Attack! This ungrateful bastard needs to be taught a lesson. Break his legs and throw him out!"

Several men in black tank tops swiftly surrounded Li Yifei, their faces stern, eager to test their mettle. It wasn’t just about obeying the orders of the Battle Bear Squad captain; the main attraction was the opportunity to clash with the renowned Golden Eagle himself. It was a matter of honor. And they were well aware that not a single one among them was worthy to challenge Li Yifei alone, so they prepared to encircle and outnumber him.

"Golden Eagle, don’t say we’re ganging up on you because we know you can take on any one of us alone," said one man in front of Li Yifei as he bowed his fist, speaking rather politely.

Full of rage, Li Yifei saw that his opponent was being somewhat courteous. He knew that the real scum in the Battle Bear Squad was just that captain; the squad members themselves were still men of valor. Though he had intended to go in hard, he now abandoned that thought. Still, since they were listening to that damned captain, Li Yifei felt a need to teach them a lesson.

"What are you blabbering about, do you want to be locked up?" The captain glared and shouted.

The squad member frowned, positioned his fists, and said, "My apologies!" as he lunged forward to attack Li Yifei.

As he initiated the assault, the squad members at the front and sides joined in simultaneously, unleashing their full power from the get-go. Facing an opponent as formidable as the Golden Eagle, they dared not hold back, as doing so would be suicidal.

Li Yifei also roared, thrusting a fierce punch forward, ignoring the attacks coming from other directions. The tremendous force of his punch was directed straight at the man in front.

The squad member was shocked, not expecting Li Yifei to focus his full onslaught on him, disregarding the others. He felt that he was incapable of withstanding Li Yifei’s punch. If he didn’t dodge, he would certainly die, so instinctively, he hurriedly pulled back his fist and quickly retreated.

With that retreat, Li Yifei suddenly pushed off forcefully with his feet, charging forward to break through, effortlessly circumventing the rest of their encirclement.

"Hmph, is this how your captain teaches you? To falter during an attack and break formation, where is the teamwork?" Li Yifei jeered, immediately causing the man in front to flush with shame. If he hadn’t retreated and had faced Li Yifei’s punch, he might have been injured or even killed, but then Li Yifei would have been caught in the others’ attack.

"What fools, damn it!" The captain cursed as soon as he heard Li Yifei’s remark.

The squad member’s face turned ashen. Their Battle Bear Squad had always been incredibly united, but now they were saddled with a captain who appeared out of nowhere. This captain had no real talent, and the squad members initially had no respect for him. However, the guy had such a powerful backer that all their protests were useless. This captain ruled despotically and treated the members harshly, quickly disintegrating the unity the Battle Bear Squad once had.

Humiliated and infuriated, he bellowed with all his might and launched a punch at Li Yifei, willing to risk his own life to prove himself.

"Finally, you look the part," Li Yifei remarked, as his fist collided with the man’s.

With a "thump!" the squad member was sent flying like he’d been hit by a truck, heading straight for their captain.

The captain, utterly unprepared, let out a cry of alarm as he stumbled, trying to dodge, but he was too slow to avoid the incoming squad member, and they crashed into each other solidly.

The massive impact sent the captain sprawling, and the squad member brought with him such a powerful force that he almost broke the captain’s ribs on impact. Pinned beneath the squad member, the captain couldn’t push him off for some time.

Li Yifei was particularly irate with this captain, so he taught him a lesson right from the start, and as for the squad member, he hadn’t suffered serious injury. He was simply winded and had passed out temporarily.

Members of the Battle Bear Squad, even the strongest, were still somewhat inferior to those of the Flying Hawk Squad, so currently, these few posed no threat to Li Yifei, who handled them with ease. After taking one down, Li Yifei charged at the others—attacking many with few on his side, he forced them into a retreat. This was without even using his full strength; otherwise, these squad members would likely have been lying on the ground by now.

"Motherfuckers, did you guys skip breakfast or what? So many of you can’t even take down one person, you idiots, you’re useless!" The captain had finally caught his breath, pushed away the unconscious squad member, and began furiously cursing his own team.

The squad members, being pursued by Li Yifei, didn’t feel downtrodden at all. Instead, they were thrilled with the chance to spar with Golden Eagle—a rare opportunity. Even if they could only remember a thing or two, it would be greatly beneficial. At this moment, they were focusing on fending off Li Yifei while carefully observing his moves in hopes of memorizing some of them. The pressure Li Yifei exerted was helping them gain insights.

Combat ability could only be honed through tireless practice, and theoretical discussions were useless. You could claim to have practiced a technique, but if it couldn’t be applied in real combat, it was nothing more than flashy, ineffectual moves. Similarly, in Chess, playing against a master improves your skills, while playing against a duffer not only halts progress but also worsens your game.

However, their golden opportunity was spoiled by the captain’s ranting. Li Yifei suddenly intensified his attack, and they couldn’t withstand it. A squad member was soon sent flying by Li Yifei and, coincidentally, ended up toppling the captain again.

"Motherfu—" The captain’s subsequent curse was stifled mid-sentence by the impact, and not just that, another squad member soon flew over and landed on top of the first, leaving him gasping and rolling his eyes.

Then the third, the fourth—one by one they piled on.

Now, only one squad member was left. He didn’t run but threw a feeble punch at Li Yifei and gave him a wink.

Li Yifei couldn’t help but smile. It was clear this squad member was seizing the opportunity to get back at the captain, eagerly waiting for Li Yifei to toss him over to crush his leader.

Naturally, Li Yifei wouldn’t let him down. He grabbed the man by his clothes, and the guy’s eyes sparkled with excitement, prompting Li Yifei to laugh and cry at the absurdity. Li Yifei threw him casually, and the man let out a loud, agonizing scream, clawing at the air as if in utmost pain. When he finally landed atop the pile of men, his face revealed an exhilarating thrill.

The combined weight of five sturdy men was around seven to eight hundred pounds. Even without smashing down from above, just lying on top of someone would be more than enough to bear. Now, being smashed down one by one like this, it was a wonder the captain was left able to breathe at all.

The commotion of the fight had already alerted the rest of the squad members in the vicinity, who all rushed out. They didn’t know what had happened yet, but they were aware that a fight had broken out, especially captivated by the pile of men. When they saw the pale-faced captain underneath, their attention was entirely ensnared.

But most of the squad members didn’t move; only a few hurried over to pull off the men on top and helped the captain to his feet. It was evident that the captain had almost offended every member of the Battle Bear Squad, with only a handful still heeding his word—presumably his confidants.

"Son of a bitch! I’m going to kill you today! I must kill you!" The captain was beside himself with rage. Spotting a confidant with a gun, he snatched it, clicked off the safety, and aimed it straight at Li Yifei.
