Chapter 415: Chapter 414: What compensation?

Swearing aside, Lin Tian had to fend off the barrage of bricks flying his way, swiftly moving his feet, punching a brick with each fist.

The entire drill field instantly filled with flying debris and dust clouding the air, leaving onlookers only able to hear the sounds of breaking cement bricks and impacts.

Not until the dust settled did their figures become visible again, with the ground now littered with brick fragments and Lin Tian himself coated in dust; a slight shake and the dust flew off him.

"Miss Luoxi, are you satisfied now?" Lin Tian said.

He sized up Ning Luoxi by the enclosure wall. The little girl, apart from her hair scattering, seemed unharmed, showing an impressive resistance to impacts. If it had been Miss, she would have been injured by that earlier attack.

"I still have one move left!" Ning Luoxi charged at him, her words like a gust of wind by Lin Tian’s ear.

With each step she took, the ground of the drill field seemed to shake. Her rushing speed sent her hair flying back, revealing her fair neck amidst the striking and somewhat enchanting figure.

Damn, I really can appreciate beauty even in battle; Lin Tian couldn’t help but admire his own lecherousness and covertly gave himself a thumbs up.

Ning Luoxi seemed to realize Lin Tian was eyeing her figure. Her gaze turned cold, her eyebrows raised in obvious anger.

When a Berserker gets angry, the consequences are severe. Ning Luoxi glared fiercely at Lin Tian as her aura dramatically soared, even those standing on the platform felt the change in her presence.

"Hmph, you pervert, I’ll flatten you!" Ning Luoxi grunted in annoyance as her momentum surged.

Damn, it’s not my fault you’re so well-developed; can’t I even look? I’m stripped to my clothes here, getting seen by you; I’m at a bigger loss, Lin Tian thought shamelessly.

Seeing Lin Tian like this only infuriated Ning Luoxi more, and she shouted loudly, "Meteor Burst!"

Her punch exploded the air, and the subsequent series of booming sounds were like meteors crashing down, startling everyone on the platform.

Lin Tian, preoccupied with shameless thoughts, was suddenly startled by a loud sound near his ear. The noise was not only sudden but powerful and mixed with a strange buzzing that made it hard to concentrate.

It turned out there was a reason to shout in a fight; ordinary martial masters could add to their momentum, while Ancient Martial Artists like Ning Luoxi and Xiao Manxue could produce an auditory attack effect, known in martial arts as Sound Strike.

"This idiot, what’s he daydreaming about at a time like this!" Miss stomped her foot on the platform in dissatisfaction, for she could tell from Ning Luoxi’s stance that Meteor Burst was an incredibly powerful move.

Lin Tian seemed unaffected and even smiled mischievously at Ning Luoxi before also shouting loudly, "Take my punch, Ten Earths Nine Heavens Eight Desolations Seven Sins Six Harmonies, I Alone Am Honored Fist!"

He too punched toward Ning Luoxi, and although his cry sounded humorous, his punch’s momentum was in no way inferior to hers.

The fists collided with a "boom," and the base shook as if an earthquake had suddenly erupted, shaking everything fiercely. Items on the construction scaffolding were jolted and came crashing down.

Following that, the cement floor of the drill field shattered as if a tank had dropped from the sky, and even the earth ten meters outside the drill field rolled like a tunneling dragon, the ground heaving upward. Below Lin Tian and Ning Luoxi’s feet appeared a half-meter-deep crater, as if bombed.

The platform at the edge of the training ground had developed cracks of varying degrees, and people were supporting each other.

The collision of the two finally compressed the air to its limit, the belated booming sound "boom" exploded, and ripples of air visible to the Physical Eye spread from around their fists.

"Retreat even further!" Miss suddenly shouted, pulling Xiao Manxuan quickly back until they reached the farthest end of the platform.

Everyone on the platform was alert, and without time to think, they retreated as well, just getting to the very back when a sharp metallic screech "zing" rang out, followed by the "creak" of bending metal.

To their astonishment, they saw the flagpole on the flag-raising platform vibrating continuously from the shockwave, bending from the previously dented area and slowly falling over, finally hitting the ground with a "clang."

After the havoc, the entire base fell silent for a good five minutes, with only the sun in the sky still shining brightly.

Ning Luoxi maintained her punching stance, her fist against Lin Tian’s. However, she was now breathing heavily, her chest heaving non-stop, and her ties seemed barely able to contain her, while the sweat on her forehead dampened her black hair, revealing her charms amidst the disarray.

The last move "Meteor Burst" had consumed too much of her strength. Although she hadn’t reached the point of exhaustion like the last time, judging by her sweaty appearance, she didn’t have the energy to unleash a second "Meteor Burst."

"Miss Luoxi, it seems you’ve been improving all this time, not bad, not bad." Lin Tian withdrew his fist, saying solemnly.

But Ning Luoxi didn’t appreciate the compliment, frowning as she said, "Why didn’t you use all your strength? Were you holding back?"

"Use all my strength?" Lin Tian shook his head with a smile and said, "If I used all my strength, you would end up either dead or seriously injured. I couldn’t bear to do that to you, Xixi, and beating you badly in front of your soldiers wouldn’t look good for you either."

"Hmph, whether I die or get injured is none of your business. Who asked you to pull your punches?" Ning Luoxi stood up straight, snorted, then turned and walked toward the platform.

Whether it was from exhaustion or some other reason, the little girl actually stumbled over broken concrete pieces on the ground, nearly falling. Annoyed, she kicked the debris away, mumbling something under her breath.

"Miss Luoxi, spare the ground some mercy, those concrete pieces didn’t provoke you," Lin Tian joked.

"Mind your own business!" Ning Luoxi said without looking back, kicking a few more pieces as if they were Lin Tian.

Looking at her childishly sulking figure, Lin Tian could only shake his head helplessly. Why are all the women I know so stubborn? Whoever marries them in the future is in for it. If there’s a man impressive enough to marry them all and gather them together, I wonder with their temperaments if they could tear the Earth apart.

On the platform, Ning Weiguo led a group of people down and came to his daughter, asking with concern, "Xixi, are you hurt?"

Seeing Ning Weiguo’s concerned look, Lin Tian felt bemused. The most eager to fight just now was him, and now he’s concerned about injuries. And why doesn’t he ask if I’m hurt? His daughter can be quite ferocious, too!

"Uncle Ning, we were just sparring a bit, how could we get hurt?" Lin Tian answered for her.

Just sparring? Thunder Wolf and Stone looked at the shattered mess of the training ground, sweating profusely again. If this is called just sparring, what would an actual fight look like? Would the whole base be turned upside down?

Ning Weiguo laughed and said, "Alright, Brother Lin, stop pretending. It’s just some broken stuff. Paying for repairs will fix it. I have an even bigger compensation for you."
