The guards did as Chen Ming ordered. This time, Zhang Tie couldn't push the ground as easily as before. This time he failed. Chen Ming saw that and shook his head.
“Can't even do push-ups with that little weight. you will hold it always until we finish the missions. If you made the second mistake, well don’t worry I will only add a little more weight as punishment.”
Zhang Tie couldn't breathe. He couldn't say anything. His body moved in accordance with Chen Ming's instructions. The speechless Zhang Tie didn't mean his friend couldn't speak.
Jiao Qi walked in front of Chen Ming before pointing at him.
“You Chen Ming, how dare you treat Zhang Tie like this? If I don't take action, I will-"
Yes! Desperately, Chen Ming smacked Jiao Qi's head with a loud bang. before speaking
“What did you say just now?”
"H H how dare-"
Piaaaa!!! This time he smacked harder than before. Jiao Qi's head was spinning. Chen Ming spoke up.
“You despise I am your superior now. How dare you threaten me? You pushed the ground two hundred times together with him with a stone weighing three hundred jin on your back, until you passed out. When you stop, the punishment will be doubled!”
Brutal Chen Ming was not a person now. He's a demon that came out of the abyss!
Zhang Tie, Jiao Qi, Yun Mingde, were now walking behind the group that had already departed from Duanyang City. From Duanyang City to Huxia Grassland, the distance was more than two hundred li (100km/62miles). They had to reach within two hours (four hours) before finding a place to rest there
The journey from Duanyang City to Huxia Grassland, usually traveling by horse, would only take one hour at most. But this was not for missions only but for training as well so they travel by foot
Chen Ming carried a two-ton sword. and running with his technique It was a very intense exercise. Even though he was carrying a load that was ten times heavier than anyone in the team, he had lighter footprints than the others.
At the same time, the others were carrying only two hundred jin of weight. They were already exhausted. they have to stop running from time to time to catch their breath
Three people had it worse; they made problems along the way. but now they were unable to express their dissatisfaction Every time they expressed their displeasure. What followed was Chen Ming's brutal punishment.
While everyone was trying to run as hard as they could. Chen Ming then checked everyone's stats. Found that many people level up more. Especially the three friends who were going to die right now.

The three, in addition to having increased in levels. The three's relationship with him has deteriorated. But even then, Chen Ming didn't care. The way he did it made them stronger.
They were fifteen years old. this levels was enough for them to be proud of normally but in Chen Ming eyes it far from enough
“Huxia Grassland is not far ahead. Let's compet. Whoever gets there last will be punished. increase the weight from two hundred jin to three hundred jin.”
Hearing that, they cursed Chen Ming in their hearts. Why are you so cruel? What have they done to piss him off this much? Chen Ming was unfazed. He used to receiving hated gaze because of his old job
Xiao Wen, although a woman, was not normal. Lifting a one-ton stone sword like him Her level had also increased.

---------------------
Her level had risen very quickly when compared to the Qi Foundation Stage and Qi Gathering Stage. Qi Gathering Stage would level up a lot slower than Qi Foundation Stage, but who would have thought, her level up speed even surpassed the three comrades who were in Qi Foundation Stage!
This must have been the result of her cultivating the Water Returning Sect's martial arts for sure. Chen Ming wanted to ask her how the training was going. but decided not to. Each sect had its own technique. even if he was her fiance He had no right to ask about it.
The guards and the young masters entered the Huxia Grasslands and the two hours journey came to an end. It took them half an hour longer than usual to come here. Chen Ming was not pleased. He said that the next time must be faster. He knew everyone was tired. and didn't think to order them anything after this. He will let them recuperate first. As he, along with Xiao Wen who was above everyone else, went out and patrolled the area to see where it was worth hunting.
In Chen Ming's eyes, Huxia Grassland was not much different from the ordinary forest. However, he who had better eyesight than others would not be easily deceived. He looked at the ground. He found that there were several footprints they were not difficult to find.
Chen Ming looked at Xiao Wen before asking her.
“Xiao Wen Sis What do you think if we make a temporary base here?”
Xiao Wen used her thoughts from her own experience. There were only profound beasts at the Qi Foundation stage here. If their number is not too much She thought there would be no problem
Chen Ming looked at one of the footprints. He had some doubts.
“What kind of beast do these footprints belong to?”
What Chen Ming saw was not a black panther's footprints. But it's the footprints of something that walks on two legs. Black panthers don't walk on two legs. And the moths don't have paws.
Chen Ming sigh. There seemed to be some beasts that did not appear in the information he got.
“Well no use in complaining I need to find out what was that beast but I need to be careful don’t know what level it is hope it is not high”
Chen Ming returned to his group that had already begun to rest. In his group, only the Guards could withstand such heavy training while still standing.

Chen Ming noticed a change in relationship with the guards. These guards trained hard without a word. No matter what Chen Ming had them do They followed it all.
