Chapter 2336: S-Class Guide Forced Love 21
The next day.
Top-level exclusive training field.
On the observation seats temporarily set up at the edge of the field, sat six high-level representatives with various expressions.
Nominally they were here to objectively assess whether You Zan had the ability to recover his special-type sentinel status, but in reality they were scrutinizing, wanting to see how much of this 'mad dog' that Jin Chen councilor had forcibly dragged back from the abyss still remained.
In the center of the field, You Zan wore a fitted black training uniform, outlining his smooth muscle lines.
He moved his wrists and ankles, his gaze calm, long gone the violent chaos of his lower-level days; only when he occasionally glanced across did that deep-seated bone-chilling chill reveal the undiminished hatred.
Jin Chen held a tube of light-blue highly concentrated nutrient solution, twisted open the cap, and brought it to You Zan's lips.
You Zan said nothing, obediently lowered his head, and, following his hand, drank the cool liquid in one gulp.
"Relax, do what you want to do." Jin Chen whispered.
You Zan grunted, subconsciously rubbed his hand against Jin Chen's, thought a moment, then nibbled with his teeth, not using force, just wanting to grind his teeth.
Jin Chen let him bite, smiling and pressing his fingertip against the sharp tooth, "Bite a few more times and I'll file it down for you."
You Zan: "……"
You Zan flung his hand away, very displeased.
Lu Wen wore the same training uniform, but appeared stiff and uncomfortable.
Ye Jun stood beside him, whispering something, but Lu Wen's eyes remained filled with tension.
He never expected the high-level officials to come directly to observe!
This isn't training; it's clearly a public execution!
"Begin." Jin Chen's voice rang out across the empty training field.
First item: close-quarters combat.
The whistle blew!
You Zan's figure exploded like an arrow released from a bow, his movements swift, precise, and ruthless.
His strikes were tricky and deadly, yet he controlled them with ease, leaving only afterimages of fists and feet tearing through the air.
Lu Wen scrambled to respond, trying to predict You Zan's attacks based on past experience, but found the opponent's speed and power far exceeded his memory.
During his rehabilitation, You Zan had actually made further progress!
Lu Wen barely managed to block and dodge in a panic, yet was still struck by You Zan's fists and legs.
Each hit was accompanied by pain and the faint intake of breath from the high-level representatives at the sidelines.
Boom!
The final side kick slammed hard into Lu Wen's waist and abdomen.
Lu Wen let out a pained grunt, slammed hard against the edge of the protective mat, struggled a few times, but couldn't get up right away.
You Zan stood in place, slightly adjusting his breath, his gaze icy as he looked down at Lu Wen on the ground, like looking at an eyesore piece of trash.
The expressions of the high-level officials had already begun to change.
They even felt that Jin Chen's move was intended to slap them in the face!
Second item: dynamic shooting.
The moving target darted at high speed through the complex obstacles.
You Zan held the gun with one hand, his body weaving through the obstacles so fast he almost left an afterimage.
The gunfire had a steady rhythm, bullets continually hitting the tiniest core area of the target's bullseye, the bullet holes overlapping.
Now it was Lu Wen's turn.
He endured the intense abdominal pain, silently cursing You Zan for his heavy hand, yet his hand holding the gun trembled slightly.
In his eyes, the fast-moving target seemed to double; when the gunshot rang out, he lost aim, several bullets grazing the target's edge and flying past, even one missing entirely.
The immense pressure caused his performance to falter, his results appalling.
The high-level officials: "……"
Those with grim faces already wanted to leave; they were councilors and officials who considered themselves elite, unable to accept such embarrassment, like killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.
But Jin Chen stood at the exit, clearly determined to back You Zan.
Seeing a councilor about to leave, Jin Chen raised an eyebrow and asked, "Isn't the competition nice to watch?"
My wife is so handsome!
The councilor was obviously of the Kai En faction, his face dark as iron yet forcing a smile, his visage about to become distorted, "Nice… nice."
Jin Chen pointed his chin at the seat, "Sit back down and keep watching."
Councilor: "……"
Really, seeing ghosts.
Third item: sentinel extreme thrust training.
A narrow passage simulating the complex environment of ruins, filled with various laser traps and suddenly popping obstacles.
Requiring sentinels to pass through at the fastest speed with the least damage.
This was the item You Zan had failed the most times during his rehabilitation.
You Zan subconsciously glanced toward Jin Chen at the sidelines, seeing his mouth shape.
"Don't panic, remember your hatred."
You Zan took a deep breath, his gaze instantly becoming intensely focused.
He charged into the passage like a ghost, his body unbelievably flexible, laser beams grazing his clothes, the popping obstacles anticipated in advance, his speed not slowing but instead increasing.
Finally, You Zan slid backward out of the endpoint, the timer freezing.
Lu Wen looked at that number, his face ashen.
It could be said that the more he feared inside, the more frantic his actions became.
He forced himself forward, his movements noticeably sluggish and stiff, his reaction to traps half a beat slow, the piercing alarm blaring nonstop.
Within two minutes, his arm was grazed by a laser, and the popping obstacles sent him tumbling clumsily to dodge, his speed greatly reduced.
When he finally broke out, the number on the timer was nearly four times You Zan's, and his arm still bore obvious burn marks.
You Zan, three matches, three wins.
The training field had sunk into a deathly silence, where even a dropped pin could be heard.
Those high‑level representatives who originally carried scrutiny and doubt now had only shock on their faces.
They gazed at You Zan in the center of the field, then at Lu Wen collapsed against the edge of the protective mat, his complexion ashen and even standing straight difficult.
This is no recovery assessment; it is clearly an overwhelming mismatch crushing him.
You Zan stepped back half a pace, his chest rising and falling slightly, sweat sliding down his jawline.
He didn't even glance at Lu Wen on the ground, his gaze calmly sweeping over the silent high‑rankers at the sidelines before finally resting on Jin Chen.
Jin Chen curled his lips and nodded at You Zan.
"Well done, Sentinel."
Ye Jun's face turned ashen as he rushed into the field, helping up the disheveled Lu Wen.
He sensed that Lu Wen's condition was very wrong, and amid unwillingness and rising anger, he was about to descend into chaos.
Clearly today's plan was to suppress You Zan and provoke his chaotic frenzy, yet they hadn't expected Lu Wen to be unable to beat You Zan.
Even less expected was that the one who fell into chaos was Lu Wen.
Ye Jun had no time for the high‑rankers' scrutinizing gaze on Lu Wen; his mind was filled only with not letting Lu Wen descend into chaos here, otherwise the honor of the strongest Sentinel would be handed over.
This will once again prove that his abandoning You Zan and choosing Lu Wen was a mistaken choice.
As an A‑rank Guide, Ye Jun cannot allow this situation to occur; it is detrimental to his reputation.
Ye Jun extended his mental thread into Lu Wen's brain region, pulling him back from the confused chaos.
But he never imagined that Lu Wen becoming like this was intentional on You Zan's part.
You Zan walked toward the edge of the training field; as he passed them, he lowered his gaze, his eyes indifferent, yet hiding a barely detectable mockery.
Thanks to Jin Chen, You Zan thought, that guide had taught him that before a fist‑to‑flesh revenge, necessary means could likewise be an eye for an eye.
【Detected Villain Blackening Value -5, total 85】
Then, as You Zan embraced Jin Chen's waist without restraint, using a kiss to vent the post‑battle exaltation.
The high‑rankers clearly saw that on the training field, Lu Wen had completely fallen into spontaneous lost chaos, and even Ye Jun struggled to keep him steady.
