Chapter 307: 307: Just a Defective Version
“Vincent, do you even know what you are saying?” Commander Wood shook his head helplessly and said.
“The Capital City Battle Zone has always been an unclimbable mountain, and the targets of the other battle zones at most aim to be second.”
“Now you are saying that Ethan Smith promises to come first? What, is he even better than Ignacio Burke?”
William Richardson also felt a bit awkward. He helplessly said, “Ethan Smith has made a promise, and he is willing to be punished if he goes back on his word.”
“Humph, he is nothing but a fool who fears nothing because he knows nothing,” said Commander Wood with a snort.
Then he waved his hand, and Zane Avery came over.
“Salute to Officer Richardson!” Zane Avery saluted and shouted.
“Alright, Zane Avery, from now on, I appoint you as the team captain of the Dragon Tiger Team. Do you have confidence?” Commander Wood asked. Zane Avery shouted, “Guaranteed to complete the mission!”
Commander Wood smiled lightly and said, “You should also make a promise.”
Without thinking, Zane Avery shouted, “I will get Chuzzle Battle Zone into the top three!”
“Good! If you can’t do it, I’ll hold you responsible!” Commander Wood yelled.
“Yes!”
Then, Zane Avery went towards the Dragon Tiger Team.
William Richardson wanted to say something more, but he was interrupted by
Commander Wood’s wave of hand.
“Oh well,” sighed William Richardson.
On the plane.
Ethan Smith suddenly woke up from a sleep!
He slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, “I knew I forgot something! Today is the special training day for the Chuzzle Battle Zone!”
Thinking of this, Ethan Smith hurriedly looked at Edward Green and asked,
“How much longer until we arrive?”
Edward Green calculated the time and said, “About an hour or so.”
Ethan Smith nodded. An hour was enough.
He then slowly closed his eyes, searching in his mind for suitable cultivation skills for special training.
In a short time, the quickest way to improve is by body refining.
Therefore, Ethan Smith quickly found a body refining technique from his mind.
This technique could significantly improve physical fitness in a very short time, but it was quite painful.
Luckily, Ethan Smith could refine the Pill to make up for this.
“The body refining technique should be enough, ” Ethan Smith thought to himself.
The plane soon landed in Chuzzle Provincial City.
As soon as he got off the plane, Ethan Smith hailed a taxi intending to head towards the Chuzzle Battle Zone.
However, at this moment, William Richardson called Ethan Smith.
“Ethan Smith, where did you go? I couldn’t even reach you by phone!” As soon as the call was connected, William Richardson couldn’t help but ask.
Ethan Smith apologized with a hint of guilt, “I’m sorry, Uncle William. I had something to do and went out for a while. Now, I’m going to head to the Chuzzle Battle Zone.”
William Richardson was silent for a moment and then said, “Alright, come to my house first.”
After leaving those words, William Richardson quickly hung up the call.
Ethan Smith glanced at the time, it was twelve noon.
“It seems I am late.” Ethan Smith stuck out his tongue and said quietly.
A moment later, Ethan Smith, and Edward Green, soon arrived at William Richardson’s home.
At this time, William Richardson was sitting in the study, carefully holding some documents in his hand.
Ethan Smith pushed the door and entered, smiling and asked, “Uncle William, what are you looking at so earnestly?”
Seeing Ethan Smith, William Richardson quickly stood up.
He spoke with some reproach, “How could you have forgotten such an important matter? I’m telling you, the higher-ups are extremely dissatisfied with you right now! They have even replaced the coach of the Dragon Tiger
Team!”
At this point, William Richardson threw the file he was holding at Ethan Smith.
“Take a look for yourself,” said William, his face stone cold.
Upon receiving the file, Ethan skimmed through it, discovering it to be a set of incomplete cultivation skills.
While this particular set of cultivation skills seemed mystic, it was lacking the most essential part.
“William, what is this?” Ethan asked.
With a huff, William responded, “This is the Special Training of Ignacio Burke, but in a weakened version.”
“Weakened version?” Ethan shook his head.
“This is not a weakened version, but rather, an incomplete one. If you train according to these cultivation skills, not only will there be no effect, but it will also bring about side effects,” explained Ethan.
William Richardson was taken aback. “Are you sure?” he asked hurriedly.
“Absolutely sure.” Ethan confirmed.
Frowning, William considered the file in his hands for a moment. Then he murmured, “If it’s really like this, we’re in deep trouble.”
At this thought, William seized Ethan’s arm and said, “Let’s go, we need to head to the Chuzzle Battle Zone right now!”
So, Ethan and William, ±left their homes, intent on heading to the Chuzzle Battle Zone.
Just then, Clare Richardson, with her school bag on, returned home from outside.
The moment she saw Ethan, Clare threw her bag away and rushed over.
“Ethan, when did you get here? Where have you been lately, you never come to visit!” complained Clare, glaring at Ethan.
“Stop it Clare! Your brother Ethan is very busy. He doesn’t have time to play with you!” reprimanded William in displeasure.
Mumbling, Clare said, “So, does he have time today? Ethan, can you teach me? I want to learn martial arts too!”
With a bitter smile, Ethan replied: “I don’t have time right now. I’ll come and find you once I’ve finished my work. okay?”
“That won’t do! Who knows when you’ll finish! Always making false promises,” Clare protested as she pulled Ethan’s arm.
“Ahem, how about I teach you instead? What do you think?”. Edward Green volunteered unexpectedly.
Without even glancing at Edward, Clare countered: “You? With your half-baked skills? Forget it.”
“Also, you look awfully sleazy!”
Taken aback, Edward’s face turned red, mumbling: “I am incredibly handsome, where is the sleaziness…”
“Alright, alright, we need to leave immediately. Edward, you stay here and keep Clare company.” William pulled Ethan, walking towards the car.
In no time, they had arrived at the Chuzzle Battle Zone.
They headed straight for Commander Wood’s office.
In the office, Commander Wood was standing by the window, gazing at the training grounds outside.
“Commander Wood!” William hurriedly came in with Ethan.
“Vincent? What are you doing here?” Commander Wood sipped his tea.
He then pointed at the training grounds outside, remarking: “See, the members of the Dragon Tiger Team are all brimming with vitality! Zane Avery’s special training plan is particularly astounding!”
William fell silent for a moment, unsure of how to respond.
“It’s indeed astounding, not for its effectiveness, but for raising the physical burden on the body,” Ethan calmly interjected.
“If this goes on, the physical functions of the Dragon Tiger Team members will drastically decline.”
Hearing Ethan’s explanation, Commander Wood’s face tensed. He shifted his displeased gaze towards Ethan.
“Who are you?” Commander Wood demanded, his face cold.
Ethan gave a slight bow and introduced himself, ‘My name is Ethan Smith. I’ve had the honour of meeting Commander Wood.”
“You’re the Ethan Smith? The so-called King of Chuzzle?” Commander Wood’s
impression of Ethan didn’t seem too pleasant.
Not waiting for Ethan’s response, Commander Wood continued: “So you’re saying this plan will increase the physical burden? Are you suggesting that Ignacio Burke’s training plan isn’t up to par?”
Ethan shook his head: “Ignacio Burke’s training plan is indeed exceptional.
Unfortunately, the one you guys have is only an incomplete version.” “Also, even if it was the complete version, I don’t think it’s better than mine..”
