CHAPTER 135: CHAPTER 75: THE TRUE STRENGTH OF THE DRAGONFLY [REQUEST FOR MONTHLY VOTES]

Chu Fa Da is not a dissatisfied person.

Having a fight during military training, although it was just to warm up, she didn’t have higher demands on Mountain and Sea Star, and she was quite content with the following days.

How could she not be satisfied?

While everyone else was struggling under the scorching sun, she, with her ability to take down all the instructors with one hand, didn’t have to train and nobody said anything.

The main goal of the training is to exercise the students, but when the student can rub their superior’s face in the dirt, what’s the point of training?

As long as she doesn’t disgrace them in the big military competition...

This is the heartfelt wish of all the crushed instructors.

...

But, being excused from training was satisfying, yet with half of the twenty-day training camp left, life was getting a bit dull.

After all, this is a new recruit training base with management requirements.

Snacks weren’t allowed here, and it was far from the bustling city center, and as a student, no one let her out.

Even if Chu River lay in the dorm all day, she’d still eventually feel bored and have to find something to do.

Ah, it’s really a life of toil accumulated from a past life! Blame this godforsaken place, can’t touch the bustling world...

...

She suddenly came over, saying she had new combat techniques to teach everyone...

Frankly, the instructors in the engineering department already sensed the power of the stars and faced her with sincere if bemused attitudes:

"You want to teach us a new way to fight?"

The instructor realized right after speaking, shook his head repeatedly: "We are proper soldiers, we don’t fight unnecessarily — are you teaching that stuff you practice regularly?"

Chu River was somewhat dismissive of this attitude — "Look at you, how can you not fight when you’ve learned martial arts? Isn’t sparring just fighting?"

Quite hypocritical.

But that’s not important.

"Are you going to learn this martial art? You might not need it now, but you’ll definitely need it in the future."

Setting aside how lethal the 36-Style Stranglehold truly is, in the long run —

If the world heads in a certain direction, then one day Mountain and Sea Star might face various survival issues, and after the interstellar routes are opened, it may slowly be abandoned and eventually become just a legendary homeland.

What she’s teaching is the 36-Style Stranglehold that every soldier in the Star Sea Era must be proficient in. It’s not suitable for friendly sparring, but once mastered, it can even twist an opponent’s spine during combat...

After all, the targeted opponents are not humans, but the Insect Race, proficient in close combat.

Nowadays, the military certainly has specific combat techniques, but all designed against human limitations.

However, when stepping into the interstellar realm, the biggest enemy is the Insect Race.

They don’t have such standard torsos, their forms are bizarre, and species vary, some with bodies hundreds of meters long, some with eight long legs, and some with deceptively armed abdomens...

The 36-Style Stranglehold is a close combat technique inherited through generations of life-and-death struggle.

After all, once in close combat with the Insect Race, it’s either kill or be killed.

...

Honestly, for others, if someone gave such guidance, the instructors would surely think it was boastful.

After all, the more concise, the more useful, and the military’s combat techniques are precisely the collective wisdom of several generations, able to defeat the enemy and suitable for foundational practice.

But as long as everyone recalls that day when this girl single-handedly gave Major Qin a black eye, what she’s teaching must not be ordinary fighting techniques!

Ptooey.

The instructor secretly cursed his slip of the tongue. Anyway, this must not be any ordinary combat technique!

A few exchanged glances, seeing the path to promotion in this simple learning requirement.

So next, train the students by day, and start extra training by night —

When the limbs were twisted and contorted into an incredible angle, the math department instructor couldn’t help but curse:

"Damn, my bones are so stiff, should’ve known to practice yoga earlier!"

When dealing with the Insect Race, there has to be something different, otherwise, how can one refine this tangling technique properly?

Without a word, Chu River aggressively twisted his arms!

Accompanied by a muffled groan, the math department instructor’s move finally snapped into place, his eyes widened, face contorted in agony.

Next to him, the engineering department instructor was unmoved, his eyes steady, just struggling to twist his posture.

He thought, I also want to curse, but although this move is hard, it’s really advantageous in a fight!
