It was hard to tell how long the two had been fighting, but they were both drenched in sweat, nearly propping themselves up against the wall as they emerged. Once outside, they leaned against the corridor walls, still exchanging banter.
“You pathetic coward! If it weren't for my good mood today, I would have taken you down already. Just wait until next time; I’ll make you beg for mercy!”
“Hmph, sure! With your pathetic skills, you should really go back and practice some more before facing me again. You’re lucky I didn’t knock your teeth out!”
In reality, despite their bravado, both were too exhausted to continue. Their faces were swollen and bruised, resembling a couple of battered prizefighters. It was clear that neither had gained a significant advantage in their bout; it was a draw.
After their exchange of insults, they finally turned away from each other and trudged back to their respective dorms. On the way back, they each put on a facade of indifference, but once they turned the corner, they began to check their injuries. Wincing in pain, they gritted their teeth and inhaled sharply to ease the discomfort. Unable to contain themselves, they muttered a few curses under their breath before finally settling down.
The night passed without incident.
The next morning, during roll call for the Dog Tooth Club, the captain quickly noticed that Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan both looked like they had been through a war—bruised and battered.
“Looks like you two had a rough night. Did you decide to give yourselves makeovers?” the Dog Tooth Club Captain mocked.
However, both of them maintained blank expressions, pretending not to hear his taunts.
“You two stay behind; everyone else is off for a ten-kilometer endurance training!”
As the others rushed off to earn their breakfast points, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan were left alone. The Dog Tooth Club Captain circled around them before stopping in front of them, clapping his hands together with an air of casual authority.
“So, what happened?”
“Report, sir! I tripped while going to the bathroom in the middle of the night!” Hua Fei replied loudly and confidently, trying to appear unbothered.
“Oh?” The Dog Tooth Club Captain clearly didn’t believe him and turned to Chu Wei Lan. “And you?”
“Report, sir! I also tripped while going to the bathroom in the middle of the night!” Chu Wei Lan answered with equal conviction, as if nothing was amiss.
How could they end up looking like this after going to the restroom together? If they believed those two, they must be out of their minds.
However, the Dog Tooth Club Captain glanced at the two expressionless Fellows and chose not to confront them directly, instead suppressing his curiosity about their investigation.
"Alright, since you both enjoy wrestling in the restroom so much, you can take charge of cleaning it for this month." The Dog Tooth Captain then called over a Second Lieutenant. "Chen Tong, from now on, you're responsible for supervising and ensuring they clean all the restrooms in the company inside and out three times. I’ll check afterward, and if I find even a single fly, you’ll be in trouble!"
"Yes, sir!"
A Second Lieutenant with a Tiger Back Bear Waist saluted in acknowledgment of the order.
Thus, this Second Lieutenant began overseeing Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan as they embarked on this monumental task. The two considered that it wasn’t so bad; at least they wouldn’t have to deal with the grueling Devil Style physical training. They could take their time cleaning the restroom, sneaking in breaks whenever possible.
Little did they know that this Tiger Back Bear Waist Second Lieutenant, Li Tong, was no pushover. They thought the Dog Tooth Club Captain was tough, but ever since he had dealt with this group of Fellows, he took his Combat Knife everywhere—even to meals and during bathroom breaks. Lu Fei Fan, along with A Teng and Niu Dali, had witnessed him practice his Knife Technique in the training room; his skills were so refined that any thoughts of plotting against him were quickly dashed.
Now, as Li Tong supervised them cleaning the restroom, he stood silently behind them with a Gauss Energy Machine Gun in hand. The feeling was unnerving; Lu Fei Fan felt that if he missed a spot while cleaning, he might just get shot.
What made matters worse was that Li Tong gave them a very limited time to clean each restroom. For example, they had only two minutes to finish cleaning the restroom on the fifth floor; otherwise, it would be gunfire as a warning—a burst of Energy Bullet rounds.
Clean slowly? Bang bang bang.
Miss a spot? Bang bang bang...
As a result, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan rushed through each restroom as if they were racing against time. They desperately scrubbed one restroom after another, racing to gather their tools and move on to the next one within the designated time. If they fell behind even slightly, that Second Lieutenant would fire a few rounds into the ground as a warning. It scared Lu Fei Fan so much that he wished he could wear adult diapers.
This was an immense test of willpower and stamina for both of them. After all, there were nearly a thousand restrooms throughout the base; this workload was far more exhausting than ten kilometers of physical training.
Aside from secretly cursing under their breath, they had no choice but to give it their all. Who knew if that Second Lieutenant might actually shoot them if they weren’t careful?
Chu Wei Lan felt more like a novice at this kind of task, having vomited several times from the disgusting filth that surrounded him, while Lu Fei Fan was enjoying himself immensely.
Chu Wei Lan glared at the rascal who was happily singing while cleaning the restroom, even belting out that catchy tune. It seemed to go something like this...
“Scrub-a-dub, scrub-a-dub…”
Wait a minute, what the hell was this guy singing? He was dragging me into it! Hmph!
And what’s with this Fellow's surprisingly skilled movements while cleaning the toilet, mopping the floor, and wiping the windows? It looked like he had done it dozens or even hundreds of times before. Had this Fellow been punished to clean toilets often in the past?
After a grueling day of hard labor, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan finally completed the monumental task by nightfall. When the Dog Tooth Club Captain saw the two exhausted Fellows who looked like they had just crawled out of a cesspit, he didn’t make things difficult for them. He waved his hand and had the cafeteria give each of them two buns as a token gesture.
However, as soon as they returned to their dormitory, many people pinched their noses and covered their mouths upon seeing them, making all sorts of disgusted faces. It was clear they thought the two had just emerged from a dung pit. Lu Fei Fan whistled nonchalantly, too lazy to argue with them, while Chu Wei Lan shot daggers at those people with a cold glare before heading back to his dormitory to wash up.
“Boss, you’re finally back alive…” A Teng exclaimed in admiration upon seeing Lu Fei Fan. “Wow, that smell is something else!”
“Get lost! What kind of talk is that? Do you think I would die in the restroom?” Lu Fei Fan glared at this annoying Fellow, feeling an urge to beat him up to vent his frustration.
“Hehe, how could that be? You haven’t passed on your secret techniques to me yet; how could I let you go? I heard you and that pretty boy cleaned over thirteen hundred toilets together! What an achievement! Boss, you’ve once again raised our trio's shame limit!”
“Scram!”
Just as he chased one away, Niu Dali approached with an innocent look and asked, “Hey, did you guys get to peek at any beauties while cleaning the toilets?”
“Go die…”
What kind of people are these? Forget it; he needed to wash up anyway; he definitely smelled foul.
As night fell, the dormitory was enveloped in the rhythmic sounds of snoring.
However, the restroom on a certain floor was filled with the sounds of clashing. After a while, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan emerged, each supporting themselves against the wall, their faces bruised and contorted in pain as they held their waists.
It was a familiar scene, with the two standing on opposite sides.
"You really went hard this time, White Face!"
"Hmph, I've never lost a fight."
"Pfft."
"The instructor just passed by; you’ll lose a hundred points for public defecation and fifty for spitting!"
"I... I have money, I can be willful!"
"Alright then, do you dare to come at me again?"
"I spit spit spit spit!"
"You... Hmph! If it weren't so late, I'd definitely beat you up worse. Let's settle this tomorrow!"
"Bring it on! Am I afraid of you? Hmph."
"Fine, it's a deal!"
"If you don't show up, you're the coward!"
"Just wait!"
Thus, another night passed in silence. The next morning, the Dog Tooth Club Captain looked with great interest at the two pig-headed individuals standing before him, their faces even more bruised than the day before.
"What happened to your faces? You didn’t fall in the bathroom again, did you?" the Dog Tooth Captain asked.
"Report, sir! I fell while sleepwalking last night!" Lu Fei Fan replied boldly, his face unflinching.
"Report, sir! Me too!" Chu Wei Lan chimed in, equally determined to stick to the absurd excuse. However, his ability to concoct excuses was lacking; since any excuse would lead to punishment, he decided to back up Lu Fei Fan’s flimsy story.
"Hmph, same old rules!" The Dog Tooth Club Captain glared at the two troublemakers, his anger boiling over. "Li Tong! Double the punishment for today."
Immediately after, the two found themselves engaged in a brutal bathroom battle once more.
As night fell, they continued their fierce competition in the restroom. Once again, they emerged with bruised faces. The Dog Tooth Club Captain, still curious about their condition on the third day, inquired about it again.
However, Lu Fei Fan's outrageous response completely extinguished his interest.
"Report, sir! I intentionally fell because I couldn’t stand being so handsome."
Chu Wei Lan watched this rogue and thought it was quite clever; if he could boast about himself while making excuses, he couldn’t fall behind. So he followed suit.
The consequence was that they had to clean the bathroom twice as thoroughly until it sparkled cleaner than their own dormitory. Eventually, they had to switch to a base-wide cleanup or move cargo instead.
Every night marked their agreed-upon contest time. From their initial encounters to gradually becoming familiar with each other's fighting techniques and deepening their understanding of one another, Lu Fei Fan no longer found himself at a loss against Chu Wei Lan's physical skills. Likewise, Chu Wei Lan no longer feared Lu Fei Fan's overused Military Combat Technique.
As a result, both improved not only in combat skills but also in various other aspects of their awareness and techniques.
At first, Lu Fei Fan was still playing normally, dodging when he couldn't win and switching tactics when dodging failed. Eventually, Chu Wei Lan matched him blow for blow, forcing Lu Fei Fan to resort to some tricks. Techniques like throat grabs, eye pokes, and low blows began to take center stage, and the endless array of shameless tactics left Chu Wei Lan witnessing what true rogue fighting looked like.
Fortunately, these underhanded moves caused Lu Fei Fan to suffer significant setbacks several times. However, he was no slouch himself; having simulated and practiced techniques like Black Tiger Heart Extraction and Monkey Stealing Peaches for over a decade in his mind, he gradually put them to good use. He even learned a number of impromptu tricks from this rogue, such as spitting at his opponent during a stalemate and biting their ear.
As the two continued to spar back and forth, neither could gain a definitive upper hand. Today it was one of them winning; tomorrow it would be the other. This cycle of victories and defeats continued endlessly. Each night, the winning moves from one would be countered by the other the very next evening.
Slowly, morning came, and the Dog Tooth Club Captain grew tired of punishing these two fellows. He let them return to train with the other recruits. In their quest for victory, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan even went so far as to secretly compete during their training routines. For instance, they spiked the soy milk in the cafeteria with laxatives, causing everyone in the training camp to suffer from diarrhea. The toilets became overcrowded, nearly leading to a few cases of severe poisoning that could have been fatal. Even several instructors known for their vigilance fell victim to this prank. In the end, Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan were dragged into a dark room by the Dog Tooth Club Captain and given a good beating to settle things.
As night fell again, several instructors gathered in an office to play cards and drink.
“Hey, it’s starting!” one instructor shouted as he enlarged a Virtual Screen in front of him that floated in mid-air.
The others dropped their cards and hurried over to watch their daily entertainment.
On the screen was none other than Lu Fei Fan and Chu Wei Lan fighting in the restroom; it turned out they had been quietly monitored by these Young Officers.
“Place your bets! I’ll be the banker tonight!”
“I bet three hundred on the white-faced one!”
“I’m betting two hundred on that rogue.”
“Tsk tsk tsk, their fighting skills have improved quite a bit since last time!”
“Oh look, they’re even using chili powder now! I casually gave that rogue some tips earlier, and he actually used them! Hahaha.”
“Get out of here! You think you’re a teacher? Did you see that Dragon Claw technique? I just hinted at it to the white-faced one earlier, and he managed to grasp it on his own!”
“Ha ha, have you noticed that these two Fellows are getting more and more shameless in their fighting?”
“Indeed, they have quite the masterly demeanor reminiscent of our earlier days.”
“They're not just simple opponents.”
“By the way, make sure to include their combat assessments in the review,” instructed the Dog Tooth Club Captain, who stood at the back with his arms crossed, stroking his stubble.
“Understood,” Li Tong replied seriously as he took notes.
“The evaluation of these Fellows is almost complete. Once we submit our report, their assessment levels will likely come down soon,” the Dog Tooth Club Captain said, his expression finally easing a bit.
“This tedious task is finally coming to an end,” a nearby Second Lieutenant remarked with a hint of nostalgia.
“For us, the Free Federation needs special individuals like them even more,” the Dog Tooth Club Captain said thoughtfully. “Perhaps among this group we’ve trained, one or two might become ‘War Gods’ in the future.”
This statement left all the Young Officers present in shock.
The honor of having personally trained a ‘War God’ level powerhouse was something they could hardly dare to imagine!
