Chapter 228: Teaching You How to Behave

Ma Shanwei didn't recognize Su Yi and Ning Xi, but he immediately recognized Yun Guanghou Shen Jiulong.

He immediately released his grip on Huang Qianjun's neck, straightened his attire, and respectfully bowed, saying:

"Ma Shanwei, Vice Commander of the Qingjia Army, pays respects to Marquis Shen!"

All the Qingjia soldiers present trembled as they recognized Shen Jiulong's identity and saluted solemnly.

Shen Jiulong nodded slightly and said, "No need to be so polite."

At this moment, Zhang Yiren hurriedly stepped forward, first greeting Shen Jiulong with a smile.

Then he whispered to Su Yi, "Su Gongzi, I didn't expect you to be here too."

Su Yi ignored him.

Since arriving at the training ground, his gaze had been fixed on Huang Qianjun.

Naturally, he witnessed Ma Shanwei's act of grabbing Huang Qianjun's neck as if holding a little chicken in his right hand.

He also saw Ma Shanwei's left hand, raised and about to strike Huang Qianjun's cheek.

"What's going on here?"

Su Yi ignored everyone else and focused his gaze on Huang Qianjun, asking calmly.

Faced with Su Yi's gaze, Huang Qianjun couldn't help but show a trace of embarrassment and said, "Su-ge, I... I've embarrassed you again..."

He wished he could find a hole to crawl into.

When they parted in Yunhe County City, he secretly vowed to make a name for himself in the Qingjia Army, not to disappoint Su Yi's care and cultivation.

Who would have thought that he would be humiliated like this and be discovered by the suddenly arrived Su Yi!

With this turn of events, even Ning Xi and Shen Jiulong sensed that something was amiss and looked at Huang Qianjun thoughtfully.

Ma Shanwei's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled and cupped his hands, saying, "May I ask, Marquis Shen, who is this young gentleman?"

Shen Jiulong's expression had turned cold, and he said without emotion, "You should first explain what just happened."

Seeing Shen Jiulong's change in attitude, Ma Shanwei felt a twinge of unease and sensed that something was not right.

Zhang Yiren couldn't help but say, "Old Ma, it's best for you to tell the truth. Otherwise, if Su Gongzi is dissatisfied, even if Marquis Hou returns, he won't be able to protect you!"

Ma Shanwei's complexion changed slightly, realizing that Zhang Yiren was reminding him.

This made him instantly realize that the young man in the green robe, referred to as "Su Gongzi," was definitely not ordinary.

Taking a deep breath, Ma Shanwei said in a deep voice, "This Huang Qianjun is a thousand-captain of our Qingjia Army. He has achieved remarkable feats and outstanding performance in recent times, making him a rare talent."

Speaking up to this point, he changed his tone, "However, from my observation, his mentality has undergone some changes recently."

"As the saying goes, a jade needs to be polished to become a gem. I'm concerned that he's becoming arrogant and complacent. Under the pretext of sparring, I wanted to give him a wake-up call and try to suppress his arrogance, so that he can calmly recognize himself. In doing so, it would also be beneficial to his future growth..."

Just as he was about to continue, Huang Qianjun coldly interrupted, "Commander Ma, do you dare to place your hand on your heart and say that every word you just said is true and sincere?"

Ma Shanwei's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "As a vice commander, why would I have a reason to deliberately bully a young man like you?"

He continued solemnly, "When Marquis Hou brought you into the Qingjia Army, he specifically instructed us to demand the strictest standards from you. While I was a bit harsh just now, it was also for your own good."

"But what about you? Not only do you lack gratitude, but you also slandered Nan Ying and me, accusing us of having a secret relationship. Who wouldn't be angry about that?"

From beginning to end, Ma Shanwei maintained the demeanor of an upright elder, righteous and unwavering.

This made Huang Qianjun so angry that he almost burst into laughter. He had seen shameless people before, but never someone as shameless as Ma Shanwei!

"Na Ying?"

Su Yi furrowed his brows slightly and swept his gaze, immediately spotting Na Ying hiding in the crowd.

In that instant, Na Ying's scalp went numb, and she wished she could curse Ma Shanwei to death. Why did he have to mention my name for no reason?

Facing Su Yi's gaze, Na Ying had to force herself to remain calm.

She managed to squeeze out a stiff smile and said, "Senior Su, long time no see."

Everyone was taken aback. This young man in the green robe was Na Ying's senior?

Even Ma Shanwei was a little confused. What was going on?

Ignoring the strange expressions of the people present, Su Yi no longer paid attention to Na Ying and asked, "Is Marquis Wuling not here?"

Zhang Yiren quickly replied, "Marquis left for the Bloodthorn Demon Mountain five days ago and has not returned yet."

Su Yi nodded and said, "In that case, I'll have to resolve this matter myself today."

With that, he looked at Ma Shanwei and said calmly, "Come, let's have a sparring match. Today, I will make an exception and personally teach you how to behave."

This casual remark silenced the atmosphere in the field.

Zhang Yiren's heart tightened, and he hurriedly said, "Su Gongzi, I believe that when Marquis returns, he will give Huang Qianjun a satisfactory explanation. You are a guest who has come from afar, so perhaps..."

"Commander Zhang, I am doing this for his own good."

Su Yi glanced at Zhang Yiren and said, "By trying to stop me, are you saying that you don't want me to treat him well?"

Zhang Yiren forced a bitter smile and sighed without saying a word.

"This young man, Huang Qianjun's matter is ultimately a matter of our Qingjia Army. It may be inappropriate for you to intervene so rashly," Ma Shanwei said, furrowing his brows and speaking in a deep voice.

With just one glance, he could tell that Su Yi had not yet reached the Martial Master realm. The aura emanating from him only showed signs of being at the late stage of Gathering Qi realm.

Perhaps Su Yi's identity was extraordinary, but if they were to fight, Ma Shanwei had no fear.

Shen Jiulong coldly snorted and said, "It's just a sparring match. How can it be considered meddling in the affairs of the Qingjia Army? Ma Shanwei, you better not make baseless accusations."

Ma Shanwei felt a bit annoyed at being scolded, and he took a deep breath before saying,

"Since this young gentleman wants to spar, I'll accompany him! However, blades and swords have no eyes. If I accidentally harm this young gentleman, I hope you all won't blame me!"

There was a coldness in his words.

As the vice commander of the Qingjia Army, who had also fought bloodthirsty battles with the demonic beasts in the Bloodthorn Demon Mountain for many years, Ma Shanwei had a ferocious and violent temperament.

Seeing that Su Yi didn't know what was good for him, he no longer felt the need to be polite.

But upon hearing Ma Shanwei's words, Ning Xi couldn't help but smile, and Shen Jiulong shook his head.

Zhang Yiren's lips twitched, and he remained silent.

Huang Qianjun, amidst his feelings of gratitude, felt even more ashamed.

On the other hand, the soldiers of the Qingjia Army present showed excitement on their faces, as if they realized that a good show was about to begin.

Everyone retreated to a distance, clearing a space for Su Yi and Ma Shanwei.

"This young gentleman, please!"

Ma Shanwei's cold eyes were as sharp as blades, and his aura suddenly soared, spreading like a tide of ferocity.

"Since I'm going to teach you how to behave, I'll give you a chance to make a move," Su Yi said calmly.

A cold light flashed in Ma Shanwei's eyes as he said, "Then I won't be polite!"

He suddenly stepped forward, swung his arm, and threw a punch, as if wielding a sledgehammer.

Boom!

A dazzling and dazzling fist force, carrying a condensed and substantial aura of dominance, tore through the air.

The air exploded abruptly, creating a muffled thunder-like explosion.

The punch was unmatched in its dominance and extremely fierce!

Shen Jiulong couldn't help but be amazed. The Gan Jiang under the command of Marquis Wuling, Ma Shanwei, was indeed quite skilled.

He could see that although Ma Shanwei was only at the first level of the Martial Master realm, his strength had far surpassed that of ordinary people at the same level, thanks to years of battles in the dangerous Bloodthorn Demon Mountain.

Just like this punch, it had clearly reached an extremely high level.

From this, it could be seen that Ma Shanwei was quite clever. He did not underestimate Su Yi because of his revealed cultivation level. As soon as he made a move, he used his true ability.

Unfortunately, Ma Shanwei had no idea that he was facing such a terrifying opponent at the moment...

Shen Jiulong had just thought of this.

Bang!

Su Yi simply flicked his hand, and the dazzling fist force that had come crashing over from a distance was like fragile bubbles, pierced by Su Yi's fingertips.

Casually done.

The nearby soldiers of the Qingjia Army were all shocked, almost thinking that their eyes were playing tricks on them.

Huang Qianjun, Na Ying, and Li Moyun also trembled in their hearts. How strong!

Before everyone could react, they saw Su Yi's figure disappear into thin air and reappear in front of Ma Shanwei the next moment. With a light and effortless palm, he pressed down.

Ma Shanwei had already sensed that something was wrong, his heart trembled, and as he witnessed this scene, he didn't hesitate to activate all his power and used his arms to block in front of him.

Crack!

The sound of bones shattering echoed.

Under the bewildered gazes of everyone present, Ma Shanwei's arms, which were blocking in front of him, were shattered by a single slap from Su Yi, like two limp dead snakes.

And Su Yi's fingertips, taking advantage of the opening, still full of momentum, pressed onto Ma Shanwei's shoulder.

Bang!

Ma Shanwei's body suddenly fell to his knees, forcefully suppressed by that slap, raising a cloud of dust.

His cheeks turned red with suffocation and he was filled with utter shock.

A single palm had easily suppressed him?

The entire scene fell into silence.

Except for Ning Nihua and Shen Jiulong, who remained calm as before, everyone else stared wide-eyed, stunned by this swift and decisive scene of destruction.

It was too unbelievable.

From Ma Shanwei throwing a punch to being suppressed, it had taken no more than a blink of an eye!

"How about this palm?" Su Yi asked.

Ma Shanwei's expression changed, and after a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "I was blind before, but this palm has truly convinced me!"

Bang!

Su Yi kicked out, and Ma Shanwei's figure flew backward, blood spurting from his mouth and nose. He struggled to get up, but due to the severity of his injuries, he fell back to the ground.

Everyone was shocked by this ruthless scene, gasping in disbelief.

Su Yi asked again, "How about this kick?"

Ma Shanwei gasped hurriedly, his voice hoarse, "Young Master, this kick has made me deeply aware of my own insignificance. I will no longer dare to be as arrogant as before. From now on, I will always remember the teachings of the Young Master and deeply repent for my past mistakes!"

Su Yi approached and stepped on Ma Shanwei's face, looking down at him, and said, "I'm doing this for your own good. Do you appreciate it?"

Ma Shanwei's cheeks were crushed and twisted under the pressure of Su Yi's foot. His mouth pressed against the ground as he gasped heavily, loudly declaring, "This is a great kindness. To me, it is no less than a second chance at life. I sincerely appreciate it and will be grateful for the rest of my life for the Young Master's kindness!"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

First, they were scared by Su Yi's ruthless and decisive methods.

Second, they were shocked by Ma Shanwei's performance. It seemed that he had completely surrendered and every answer he gave almost overturned people's perception of him!

After all, who could have imagined that the Vice Commander of the Qingjia Army, known as the "Cold-Faced Butcher," would suddenly submit to this extent?

It was as if he had suddenly awakened and realized the depth of his sins.

Only Shen Jiulong's eyes narrowed slightly. Ma Shanwei was definitely a tough opponent who could take things lightly and let them go.

He was also someone who didn't care about face and dignity at all.

As long as he could stay alive, he would abandon everything.

Such people were often the most dangerous!
