My stunning iceberg CEO wife

Chapter 235: Chapter 234 Convincing Mu Chen (Four)

”Yes,” everyone helped each other to the training platform and looked at Mu Chen with fervent eyes, filled with shock.

”If I were your enemy just now, do you think you would still be alive?” Mu Chen looked at everyone and said.

”No,” everyone said, their faces pale. If Mu Chen were the enemy, they would not even know how they died; Mu Chen seemed like a monster, terrifying.

”Do you know how terrifying the enemies Soul Slash faced were? There are several with strength like mine. Do you think you have any right to be proud if you encountered them?”

”We...” Everyone was unable to answer.

”Do you know what the strength of the original Soul Slash was like?”

”What was it?”

”When I was twenty years old, I had reached the Peak of the Extraordinary Realm; the weakest amongst others were at the Realm of Grandmaster, and their strength could challenge those beyond their level. Compared to you now, a few Grandmasters and one Transcendent, and still such trash in the Extraordinary Realm, some powerful Grandmasters at their Peak could easily annihilate you, and you dare to call yourselves people of Soul Slash?”

Everyone felt pale, realizing for the first time how worthless they were.

”I know you all are elites from units across the country, and you have your pride, but that was your past pride. There are always higher skies and greater people; coming here, you’re just like trash, nothing but trash.”

Everyone was left speechless; at twenty-six, Mu Chen’s strength made them feel like they faced the Dragon King, that oppressive feeling of death; they had no ability to argue, and biting down hard, Mu Chen opened a new world for them, requiring them to strive harder.

”Do you know what honors I obtained after joining Soul Slash?”

”What honors?” They were curious.

”I joined Soul Slash at seventeen, became the leader of Soul Slash at eighteen, and by twenty I had completed numerous SSS-ranked missions, numerous SS and S-ranked missions beyond count. Compared to you now, have you ever taken on an S-ranked mission? No, right? What about SS-ranked?”

Mu Chen scoffed with various sneers, looking at them as if they were a bunch of jokes.

”We...” Again, they were speechless, feeling truly worthless.

”So, don’t give me that look as if you think you’re invincible. Show me your achievements. I know you’re not afraid to die, but without bringing the highest honor to your family, just dying with your pride, do you think it’s worth it?”

”Not worth it,” everyone said, some even started crying, deeply moved.

”Honor and legends are not just talk; they come from one’s own hard work. Why was I so strong back then? I made unimaginable efforts compared to others. Others would start training at six, I’d go mountain climbing at four carrying two hundred pounds of rocks, and from the first moment I saw you playing basketball, playing football, do you think Soul Slash is a place for playing house?” Mu Chen shouted.

At that moment, many cried, tears streaming down; they felt not Mu Chen was frivolous, but themselves.

”You know what I heard and saw about Soul Slash after I returned to Yun Country? Shoddy work, and when foreign powers hear about Soul Slash, what else but disdain do you think they feel? Right now, in my view, you’re even less than Dragon Teeth.”

”The path of the strong can’t be helped by anyone but yourself. I won’t say more. If you want to become strong, if you don’t want to be looked down on, if you don’t want to live with regrets, then damn it, come with me. Remember, I only have one day to teach you, what you can grasp is up to you.” After saying that, Mu Chen walked toward the forest, unwilling to look at these people.

In this moment, Mu Chen felt helpless. The decline of Soul Slash was partly his responsibility. If he hadn’t left back then, Soul Slash would now certainly be formidable throughout the mysterious forces of Yun Country. Thus, he wanted to salvage what he could.

Everyone watched as Mu Chen walked away, filled with admiration, not because Mu Chen was Killing God, but his words and charisma had already conquered them, leaving an indelible impression.

”A hundred of me could not match him!” a red-haired youth said bitterly as he watched Mu Chen’s departing figure.

”Truly worthy of being our Soul Slash’s first Legend, having him is a fortune in three lives,” the others earnestly said.

”We are now like those people, disappointing the adults. I want to join in the training,” said the red-haired youth and quickly caught up.

”Wait for us,” the others hastily followed and entered the forest.

Soon, everyone gathered at the forest location, all assembled in front of Mu Chen, their faces serious and without their previous demeanor.

”Before we begin training, let me tell you, my training is extremely brutal. Those who want to back out now can do so. If not, if I see anyone later crying out to quit, I’ll cripple them and send them back home,” Mu Chen said seriously.

”No,” everyone said in unison.

”Very well, let’s begin! Step one, I’ll teach you assassination, and how to escape.”

”Yes.”

...

Time swiftly passed, and soon it was early the next morning. Mu Chen spent an entire day introducing them to a new training mode, teaching various killing techniques and escape skills, etc. In just one day, Mu Chen became the teacher they had dreamt of; truly, a day’s instruction could benefit one for a lifetime.

However, just when Mu Chen was taking everyone for training early the next morning, the Dragon King suddenly called him, and Mu Chen felt that something was about to happen; he immediately answered the call.

”Hello, Dead Dragon, what’s up?”

”You need to come to Spirit Province immediately, we’re being hunted, casualties are heavy.”

”Hunted, casualties heavy, what were you doing?” Mu Chen frowned.

”Kid, stop that. No time to explain, just come here quickly, otherwise, you might not see me again,” Dragon King shouted.

”I understand, but send your location to me right away, I’ll be there quickly.”

”Yeah.” Dragon King hung up.

”Sorry, everyone, it seems the training ends here. I’ve taught you quite a bit, how you walk your future path is up to you,” Mu Chen looked at everyone and said.

”Sir, thank you.” For a moment, everyone said in unison, looking at Mu Chen, full of gratitude.

”If you really want to thank me, then truly carry forward Soul Slash, don’t disappoint me.” Mu Chen said before quickly disappearing from sight.
