Bang!
An equally forceful kick, lashed out, the two feet met in midair in a perfect clash, but it was the unprepared instructor who staggered back several steps, whereas Long Yi stood steadily on the spot.
"I allowed myself to speak, got a problem with that?" Long Yi still bore that same expressionless tone.
That kick had come so suddenly; he had attempted it many times before. Not to mention those greenhorn recruits, even the seasoned professionals rarely guarded against such a move. Yet, the moment he lifted his leg, that guy named Henki also raised his! And he even managed to kick him back!
"What, wanting to rebel now?" bellowed the examiner.
"Rebel? Why? I'm just fighting you, that's all," Long Yi feigned ignorance and asked. Then he suddenly straightened his body stiffly and struck his chest with a fist, "Long live the Emperor!"
Thumping one's chest was the ultimate salute to the Emperor because their chest held the cockpit; it meant offering everything one had.
