The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms
Chapter 1120 - Chapter 1120 Chapter 1117 Furious and Frustrated_1

Chapter 1120: Chapter 1117: Furious and Frustrated_1 Chapter 1120: Chapter 1117: Furious and Frustrated_1 Upon hearing Zhang Zhongyi’s words, Dragon Commander was shocked in an instant.

He truly had no knowledge of this matter. It wasn’t because he wasn’t well-informed; rather, his confidants knew that he intended to target Yang Chen, so most of them probably didn’t mention any good news about Yang Chen to him.

This also left him completely unaware of Yang Chen’s achievements.

Hearing about Yang Chen’s tremendous accomplishments, Dragon Commander’s expression changed in an instant.

Immediately, he said coldly, “Deputy Leader Zhang, I understand that you intend to promote Young Friend Yang, but these achievements you mention are too unrealistic. Although Yang Chen is talented and young, he hasn’t reached the monstrous extent you describe.”

He now simply chose not to believe it, no matter what was said.

“This!” Zhang Zhongyi became anxious.

He didn’t know about the conflict between Dragon Commander and Yang Chen, and subconsciously felt that Dragon Commander just didn’t believe it.

“Dragon Commander, what I said is true, not a single word is false.” Zhang Zhongyi gritted his teeth.

Long Xingyu waved his hand, “Deputy Leader Zhang, I understand your feelings, and Yang Chen is indeed outstanding, but he’s still young. In my opinion, allowing him to gain more experience before granting him a military position wouldn’t be too late. There’s no need for that now.”

Hearing Long Xingyu’s words, Yang Chen was filled with anger and sneered.

Long Xingyu was indeed blatantly targeting him.

At first, Yang Chen ignored Long Xingyu, but that doesn’t mean he had a good temper. If Long Xingyu continued to target him, did he think Yang Chen was easy to bully?

With this thought, Yang Chen didn’t wait for Zhang Zhongyi to say anything, and directly said, “Dragon Commander, I dare to say a few words, despite my trepidation.”

Although Long Xingyu didn’t want Yang Chen to speak subconsciously, Yang Chen started talking anyway, so Long Xingyu had no reason to silence him. With a cold tone, he said, “Go ahead.”

Yang Chen said, “In that case, I would like to ask Dragon Commander, what was relied on when the Great Emperors selected the commander positions in the Earth Martial Realm battlefield at the beginning?”

“Of course, it was based on the selection of the outstanding elites from various sects. In simple terms, it was based on strength. Whoever had the strongest strength could hold the position of commander.” Long Xingyu said with pride and arrogance in his tone.

He could sit in this position because he relied on his strength.

The others didn’t understand Yang Chen’s meaning at all, not knowing the deeper implication behind Yang Chen’s sudden remark.

Hearing Long Xingyu’s words, Yang Chen’s mouth curled up and said, “In that case, Dragon Commander, by sitting in this position today, are you saying that you have no significant accomplishments to speak of?”

“This…” Long Xingyu was speechless for a moment. After a while, he quickly said, “I hold this position because of the Great Emperor’s command. I’m just following the words of the Great Emperor. As for the later appointment of positions, it’s entirely based on merit. Without merit, they couldn’t hold their positions!”

Long Xingyu subconsciously thought that Yang Chen was targeting him for relying on the Great Emperor’s support, so he hastily defended himself, not giving Yang Chen any chance to counterattack.

However, he didn’t know that Yang Chen’s targeted retort wasn’t about this at all.

At this moment, Yang Chen calmly said, “Dragon Commander, don’t be anxious. I didn’t care about your statement regarding the link between the granting of positions and achievements afterwards, but since you’ve mentioned it, let’s discuss the matter at hand. May I ask, Dragon Commander, from the time you took up this position until now, have you had any outstanding achievements?”

Upon hearing this, Long Xingyu was completely flustered.

If he had accomplishments, it would be fine, but the key was that he didn’t have any.

With this thought in mind, Long Xingyu glared fiercely and said, “What do you mean by that?”

“Dragon Commander, why the hurry? I’m merely mentioning the word ‘achievement’ that you’ve been emphasizing all along. Surely you don’t find the word that terrifying.” Yang Chen smiled.

Upon hearing this, many of Zhang Zhongyi’s close associates laughed.

In reality, many of them looked down on Long Xingyu. They just couldn’t express it due to Long Xingyu’s status.

Long Xingyu was now speechless.

Indeed, he had brought up the word ‘achievement’ repeatedly just now, but now that someone threw the word back at him, he was the one who wilted first.

At this point, Yang Chen had no intention of showing any more respect. As always, if others didn’t show him respect, he wouldn’t show them any either.

“Dragon Commander, when it comes to achievements, I, Yang Mou, really can’t help but want to talk about it. You mentioned achievements, and I dare say that the achievements I have are no less than anyone present. Zhang commander has been garrisoning the east district, holding out against the Prohibition Demon Clan for so long without any damage, and has defeated the Prohibition Demon Clan. In terms of our human race’s overall plan, he deserves credit.”

In fact, defeating the Prohibition Demon Clan was his own credit, but he didn’t mind sharing some of it with Zhang Zhongyi now.

Yang Chen, with his hands behind his back, said, “As for other areas, such as the south and north districts, even if the garrisoned commanders in those areas are not very good, they’re still on the frontline. Even if they don’t have merits, they have hard work. I think it’s reasonable for them to hold these commander positions based on their achievements!”

“What do you mean, are you suggesting that I, Long, am not qualified to hold this position?” Long Xingyu was furious.

But Yang Chen was not the least bit afraid, merely saying, “Dragon Commander, I never said that you were not qualified. I just want to ask you, from the time you took up the position as Commander-in-chief until now, have you had any notable achievements? You were constantly mentioning achievements, but what about you? I, Yang Mou, with such great achievements, am not eligible for a General’s position, yet you, Dragon Commander, have no achievements whatsoever and hold this Commander-in-chief position. Don’t you find your own theory laughable?”

Upon hearing Yang Chen’s words, many people couldn’t help but sigh.

Indeed, Dragon Commander kept harping on about achievements towards Yang Chen just now, but what impressive achievements did he have to show for himself?

Yang Chen’s expression was cold as he said solemnly, “If you can present some decent achievements, I, Yang Mou, will kowtow and apologize to you. What do you think?”

He was sure that Long Xingyu couldn’t come up with any decent achievements at all. People like him always prioritized their own interests, so how could they have any impressive battle achievements or merit?

Long Xingyu wasn’t a fool. He quickly noticed that the wind had changed direction, and even the so-called ‘confidants’ under him were looking at him differently.

Usually, if a mere squad leader dared to talk to him like this, he should have been dragged out and dealt with according to military law long ago, but nobody mentioned it.

He didn’t understand that when someone held a high position, they had to win people’s hearts and minds first.

But he never managed to achieve that level of convincing people!

However, Long Xingyu didn’t understand this principle at all. In response to Yang Chen’s pressure, he immediately shouted angrily, “This Commander-in-chief’s position was appointed by the Great Emperor. Do you, a mere kid, have any objection to the Great Emperor’s decision?”
