"Xuanwu, you really aren't afraid of killing me," Lin Xiao rolled his eyes and tapped the chest of the two-meter-tall man. A hug like that would have caused a normal person to suffer from multiple fractures.
"If you were killed, you'd be an imposter, the Northland Dragon King. Wouldn't that be fitting?"
Before Xuanwu could speak, another man, around 1.8 meters tall, walked up to Lin Xiao, shook his hand, and tapped each other's chests. "Long time no see."
"Qinglong, you have time to come over today? I remember there are quite a few troubles in the east that you need to resolve," Lin Xiao casually mentioned.
That old guy in the US, if it weren't for maintaining the demeanor of a major power and it being inconvenient for him to directly sell her out, he would have already taken action.
Fortunately, in the past few days, by using public opinion and taking action through various legitimate channels, all the deployments on the East Island had progressed.
"What kind of trouble is that? Qinglong, he can't wait for that old guy to come over sooner so he can act. Otherwise, there really isn't any legitimate reason," Zhu Que, the only female leader among the Four Directions Army, happened to be entering from outside the door.
"It's better to close the door to catch the dog."
Bai Hu, the owner of this command center, finally spoke.
Compared to the other three, Bai Hu appeared a bit thinner, but a faint killing aura always emanated from him.
He was also the one among the leaders of the Four Directions Army who had killed the most.
Many of the dirty and difficult jobs in Long Country were handled by him.
More than what Lin Xiao was responsible for.
"Everyone is here," Lin Xiao smiled slightly. "Are you here to challenge me again this year?"
This time last year, these four had taken turns challenging him, but unfortunately, the four of them combined hadn't lasted five minutes in his hands.
"No way, I won't."
Xuanwu was the first to declare his stance. He would rather die than spar with Lin Xiao again. Never mind whether he was heavy-handed or not; fighting Lin Xiao was too damaging to his pride!
The leaders of their Four Directions Army, weren't they all seasoned warriors with outstanding achievements? Weren't they all master-level experts? He and Qinglong were both masters on the Earth List!
And the result?
When facing Lin Xiao, did they have the ability to fight back?
This guy had only been in the army for four years, and the contributions he had made in these four years were no less than any of them, and… he had reportedly only been cultivating for four years.
Last year it was five minutes; this year, it would be a problem to last even one minute.
Zhu Que immediately spoke, "Everyone rushed over in such a hurry, have you eaten?"
"I'm a bit hungry. Bai Hu, how's your cafeteria? How about taking us to try it first?"
Even Bai Hu, who had always been taciturn, said, "Okay."
"Then, let's eat first?" Lin Xiao glanced at the four of them.
The four of them exchanged glances and nodded one after another.
Lin Xiao also felt a little hungry, so he nodded. "Bai Hu, you lead the way?"
When the five of them appeared in the cafeteria of the White Tiger Army, the attention they garnered was no less than that of a superstar appearing next to ordinary people.
"The commanders of the Four Directions Army are all here!"
"Uh, if I remember correctly, isn't that the commander of the Dragon King Army, the Dragon King?!"
The soldiers who were originally eating in the cafeteria slowed down their eating movements by half a beat when they saw the five of them enter.
These five were all legendary figures in the army!
Any one of them, brought out, would be an idol and role model in the army. Many people had squeezed their heads to get into the Four Directions Army just for them.
Not to mention Lin Xiao, the Northland Dragon King, the War God of Long Country.
This was the White Tiger Army, so they could see King White Tiger a few times, but… Lin Xiao, the Dragon King, was different.
This was a truly legendary figure!
Facing such a commotion, Bai Hu narrowed his eyes.
Anyone in the White Tiger Army knew that once Bai Hu narrowed his eyes, it meant someone was about to suffer.
Instantly, everyone in the cafeteria began to bury their heads in their food, not daring to look over here any longer.
"You've scared the soldiers," Qinglong patted Bai Hu's shoulder beside him and said in a low voice.
"If it delays their rest, affects their training, or even leads to their deaths on the battlefield in the future, then what?" Bai Hu's voice was cold and stern.
Since Hua Du had said so, no one dared to say anything. The five of them didn't put on airs and honestly queued up at the window to get their meals.
However…
They didn't want to put on airs, but the soldiers in front of them consciously made way, giving the five priority.
"Quickly, don't delay the soldiers' meal," Lin Xiao did not refuse, efficiently took his portion of food, and then urged the four of them.
They were the five protective umbrellas of Long Country, and they were worthy of such a thing.
The five arrived quickly and finished eating quickly. Even Zhu Que, who seemed to be chewing slowly, devoured her food at an excellent speed.
They spent less than ten minutes in the cafeteria.
Everyone was accustomed to military life, so they naturally ate as quickly as possible. Otherwise, they wouldn't have the energy to deal with sudden, rapidly changing situations.
"What are you calling me over for this time? Since it's not to challenge me, is it to help you train your soldiers?" Lin Xiao noticed the soldiers outside who had finished eating and were resting on the spot and asked.
"The White Tiger Army hopes to receive the Dragon King's guidance," Bai Hu walked up to Lin Xiao at this moment and bowed very solemnly.
Lin Xiao was taken aback. Bai Hu, who was usually arrogant, would rarely bow his head. Even after losing to him, Bai Hu always said he would get his revenge.
Of course, he never could.
"Okay."
Lin Xiao nodded and said, "Let me see them after the soldiers have rested."
Half an hour later.
Lin Xiao stood in front of Squad Three of the White Tiger Army.
Squad Three was the most powerful squad in the White Tiger Army, an all-weather special operations team with international renown, having won the championship of the Special Forces Competition twice.
On a global scale, it was one of the absolutely strongest special operations teams.
Bai Hu was not satisfied with this Squad Three.
"You're not satisfied with them either?"
Lin Xiao blinked. When he saw that it was Squad Three that needed his help to assess, he was also a bit surprised.
This squad was very mature in all aspects, and each member's strength was top-notch.
Although there were no master-level experts, in terms of individual combat capability, martial artists below the master level were no match for them. When they fought together, master-level experts were not an issue.
There was a chance even below the Earth List.
"No."
Bai Hu said, "If they encounter the Dragon Head Squad of the Dragon King Army now, they have no chance of winning."
"That's only natural."
Lin Xiao said as a matter of course.
