Winner Takes All

Following the sudden incident.

The square formation for the Dragon Cavalry Swordmanship abruptly stopped.

Everyone looked at Jack in surprise. To be exact, they were looking at the guy who struck down Jack's Dragon Cavalry Sword.

Jack was very furious. He raised his eyes and looked at the person standing in front of him.

It was a dark-skinned man. His bearded, square face made him looked wild and savage.

And the man was staring angrily at Jack with his big, rounded eyes.

"I did not offend you."

Jack said calmly and picked up the Dragon Cavalry Sword once again.

However, when he raised the sword halfway, the dark-skinned man lifted his Dragon Cavalry Sword again.

Clang!

He stroke his sword down, like a huge mountain pressing down from the skies.

The Dragon Calvary Sword on Jack's hand, fell to the ground for the second time.

At this moment.

Jack's expression turned extremely cold, as cold as the snowstorm in the northern region, bone-chilling cold.

All the soldiers in the square formation saw this, and they were all surprised and furious.

Every day, there were many training square formations on the drilling grounds.

As a general rule in the Dragon Cavalry, when the soldiers had already completed their daily routine drills, they were free to train whatever they want. There were no hard and fast rules on it.

Not to mention, in their eyes Jack was just a newbie who had only just joined the Dragon Cavalry a few days.

During the drills, everyone would be training by themselves. Therefore, it would be rare for to have incidents of conflicts.

More to the point, no one would be dumb enough to cause trouble on the drilling grounds without any reason.

The sword was a soldier's weapon. It was also something they relied on to keep themselves alive in the battlefield. In other words, the sword was the life of a soldier!

For any person serving in the army, no one would allow others to strike their sword down without any reason.

It would be a humiliation.

A total disgrace.

At a distance not far away.

Achilles was staring at Jack and the dark-skinned man with a gloomy face.

He saw everything that had happened just now.

When he saw that Jack's sword was struck down again, he walked over to them with a cold face.

And at the same time.

The dark-skinned man said sternly, "Newbie, I've been putting up with you for a few days. What the hell are you doing? How dare you slack off now that you have joined the Dragon Cavalry. Do you deserve the Dragon Cavalry Sword in your hands?"

As soon as he finished his words.

All the soldiers in the square formation looked at him with a weird and disdain face.

Obviously, the dark-skinned man was trying to create some trouble for no apparent reason.

These few days, everyone saw how Jack had been practicing the Dragon Cavalry Swordmanship.

However, even if there were those who were unhappy with Jack's slothful attitude, no one voiced out.

It was because everyone knew that they could increase their chances of staying on the battlefield if they worked harder and trained harder.

It was not up to them if Jack chose to live his life irresponsibly, and they would not try to stop him either. After all, his life belonged to him...

That being said, there were others who guessed that Jack might had been digesting the Dragon Cavalry Swordmanship when he was idling. Other than finding trouble out of no reason, there was no other explanation for dark-skinned man's action.

"Why don't I deserve it?"

Jack laughed in anger. He stared at the dark-skinned man, and said teasingly, "You don't understand what I am doing, that's why you say I'm slacking it. But why does it concern you on how I train? He was clear about it.

In the military, what mattered the most was a person's strength and capabilities.

Giving in continuously would be regarded as an act of cowardice.

This was human nature. At times, if you took a step back, the other person might not appreciate it. They might even take a step forward to belittle you!

And this dark-skinned man was obviously that type of person!

"This is the way you talk to a Centurion?"

The dark-skinned man was swollen with arrogance. He said solemnly, "I am the Centurion of the Dragon Cavalry, and I have the authority and responsibility to correct new recruits like you. Your sloppy attitude is a shame to the Dragon Cavalry!"

Jack tightly frowned his eyebrows.

As furious as he was, he felt ridiculous as well.

He felt that this dark-skinned man's accusations were absurd and unreasonable.

Soon after that, Achilles arrived in front of the two of them.

"Centurion Wales, you have no right to lecture my subordinate."

Achilles said in a deep voice, "Even if I am only a Sergeant now, and even though Jack is a new recruit, both of us are not under the direct command of Shawn. Even if Jack needs a scolding, it will our superior's responsibility. This has nothing to do with you at all, so why are you so nosy?"

The Centurion under Shawn?

Jack suddenly came to a realization. He immediately glanced towards the melee combat square formation.

It was as expected!

Shawn stood silently in the middle of the bustling square formation, looking at them. He was the only one who stood still, and he looked extremely out of place in that square formation.

Was he the one who sent his subordinate to find trouble?

Jack raised his hands and rubbed his nose. Then, he slowly squinted his eyes.

The dark-skinned man did not notice the changes on Jack's face. As soon as Achilles arrived, he put all his attention on him.

Deep down, he was secretly joyous.

This was what he was hoping for.

"Achilles, as a Sergeant, how could you let your subordinate be so sloppy. You should know this is a violation against the military law!" Centurion Wales smiled arrogantly. At this moment, it was as if he had caught on to Achilles' weak spot by bringing up the military law. Upon finishing his sentence.

Achilles' face expression instantly changed.

The expression of the surrounding soldiers changed as well.

In the Dragon Cavalry, as a Sergeant for the new recruits, their biggest responsibility was to lead the new recruits and make sure they could adapt and get used to the operations in the Dragon Cavalry. Other than that, they were also responsible for supervising them so that they could improve and become stronger as soon as possible.

To be specific.

Jack's sloppy attitude was Achilles' negligence of duty!

The term negligence of duty was formally stated in the military law.

That being said, everyone face expression became straight when they looked at Centurion Wales. Those hot-tempered soldiers even started to reveal a disgusted and scornful face.

Negligence of duty was indeed stated in the military law. Since the Dragon Cavalry was established, the new recruits' Sergeant was indeed responsible of leading and supervising the new recruits. However, no one really bothered about it.

This was because everyone knew, no matter how sloppy or lazy the soldier was, after they had gone through one battle, they would try their best and work harder.

And now, this military law was brought up by a Centurion, overemphasizing it so that he blame the fault onto Achilles' name.

Furthermore, the dark-skinned man was from a different unit. Therefore, he was considered to be overstepping his authority when he tried to intervene in this matter.

This man was sticking his nose into someone else's business for no reason!

"Since when did Mr. White neglect his duty? I was not loafing around as well. Since you said that I do not deserve the sword in my hand, will you accept my challenge and try out my Dragon Cavalry Swordmanship?"NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

Jack cold and teasing laugh suddenly appeared.

And at that moment when he said those words.

It was as if the wind and snow had turned silent, and Jack's words was echoed inside everyone's ears.

Right after that.

An uproar broke up within all the soldiers.

A new recruit... Trying to challenge a Centurion?

Was he insane?

"Hahaha..."

At first, Centurion Wales stunned for a while. Then, he turned his pitch-black face towards the dark sky and started laughing recklessly.

At the next second.

Centurion Wales lowered his head and stared furiously at Jack, "You want to challenge me? As a new recruit, you are like a baby bird just learning to fly. Why do you think you have the right to challenge me?" Hearing that, Achilles, who had just got back his senses, subtly raised the corners of his lips.

After Jack heard the disdain comments from Centurion Wales, he raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Are you afraid?”☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
