Xu Hao and Chen Suyi followed Elder Chen into the house.
Elder Chen got straight to the point and said, "Xu Hao, ti is of the essence, I can only be brief."
"Please speak," Xu Hao replied, seeing that Elder Chen seed to have important matters to discuss and even spared the extra formalities.
"Here's the situation, you might be aware that many countries have special forces, and our country does too. These departnts have their own responsibilities and while there is cooperation among them, there is also competition—of course, it's healthy competition."
Elder Chen glanced out the window and continued, "Among these departnts, there is one that specifically manages special forces, and to be precise, this special force is comprised of martial artists. Huaya's Kung Fu is world-famous, so we have a large number of challengers every year. But we have experts too, so we are not afraid."
Xu Hao frowned slightly, understanding that they must have encountered a tough challenger.
Sure enough, Elder Chen said, "But a few days ago, a master from Fusang arrived. This person has trained Taekwondo to the Eighth Dan Black Belt level, and he also knows Jeet Kune Do, Karate, Sanda, and several other martial arts. His strength is extrely formidable. If we were to evaluate him by our Huaya standards, he would probably be around the peak of mastery."
Xu Hao questioned, "Don't we have anyone in our special forces who is stronger than him?" Br@o*ug%ht to you by *.
Elder Chen replied with a rueful smile, "Of course, we do. However, these kinds of international challenges are tacitly permitted by all countries, and the age of the challenger from each country can only be three years older than the age of the challenger at most. If the age difference is too much, even a victory would be shaful. Furthermore, the challenger has targeted the experts from our region's special forces, so we can't ask for help from other regions."
Xu Hao imdiately understood. The opponent sent soone who could just squeeze into the range of strength that Huaya could field. He might not seem the strongest, but he hit a sensitive spot.
Moreover, the conditions of such a challenge seed excessively restrictive.
Elder Chen continued, "An old friend of mine told about this because they are facing a dilemma, so they want to ask for your help. Besides, with the rise of Huaya's national power, foreign challengers are becoming increasingly common. I think they just want to probe our depths, but none of our people has ever taken the initiative to challenge in return, as we need to focus on growing stronger."
"Elder Chen, you're being too polite. If that Fusang person dares to challenge us, we must teach him a lesson," Xu Hao said, angered that these people dared to provoke them repeatedly. "Elder Chen, I accept this mission. I want them to witness what Huaya Kung Fu is all about!"
"Haha! Good! I was waiting for you to say that! I'll have Xiao Yu take you to my old friend's place, and they will arrange an identity for you. The identity they give you will likely be an official one, so you'll effectively gain the status of a special forces mber, just like that. When you face off against that Fusang man, I will be there to watch."
Elder Chen was very satisfied with Xu Hao's reaction; that's how a Huaya man should be. He turned to Chen Suyi and said, "Suyi, you go with Xu Xiao You."
Chen Suyi clenched the corner of her garnt, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, but Chen Buyi took it as consent.
As Xu Hao was about to leave, Chen Buyi suddenly said, "Xu Xiao You, when you get there, you can give that young man nad Fang Yongnian a good talking-to."
"Fang Yongnian? Is he the one who has declared that no one is allowed to pursue Chen Suyi?" Xu Hao asked with a smile.
"That's right, him. He's very arrogant and won't even listen to . When you get there, rember to give him a lesson for . Moreover, my granddaughter is..."
Before Chen Buyi could finish, Chen Suyi interjected, "Grandpa, that's enough, we should leave."
Chen Buyi shook his head with a smile, no longer saying anything. He was getting old, and there were so things he could no longer control; it was better to let these young people figure it out for themselves!
After they got in the car, Chen Suyi deliberately kept her distance from Xu Hao. Pouting, she said, "Hmph! Xu Da Liu|Hooligan, I'm telling you, I'm joining you this ti because I didn't want to hear my grandpa nagging in my ear anymore."
Xu Hao laughed and said, "Miss Chen, what exactly was your grandpa nagging about in your ear?"
"Hmph! Xu Da Liu|Hooligan, I'm not gullible like that silly girl Xue Zhu; you can't trick into spilling the beans. What are you thinking?"
Xu Hao laughed awkwardly, no longer teasing her, and instead thought about the mission that had suddenly co up.
After driving through a lush forest, they reached an extrely spacious parking area.
There, a group of people was already waiting to greet them.
"Hmph! Xu Da Liu|Hooligan actually has such prestige, making Grandpa Wu co out to welco him!" Although Chen Suyi didn't think much of Xu Hao, she had to admit that wherever he went, he commanded respect from people, even the elders couldn't stop praising him.
