Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 1057 - 967: Official of the First Rank 29

These soldiers who cried out in pain were bruised all over, yet their gazes towards Shuangshuang were no different from the villagers of Yu Family Village. This wasn’t a human; this was a God, for heaven’s sake! If not an immortal descended to the earth, how could she single-handedly demolish ten thousand men without even a hint of breathlessness or flushing, standing there calmly?

In truth, Shuangshuang had found an advantage. Facing ten thousand men alone sounds astonishing — ten thousand! Yet, in reality, when they surrounded her, fewer than ten could actually lay a finger on her. More were just encircling from afar, waiting their turn after she defeated those in her immediate vicinity.

Over the years, Shuangshuang’s martial arts had already reached great success; she was constantly cultivating martial arts, her inner strength endless. The least of her worries is a war of attrition. For ten thousand to take turns against her is child’s play; it’s not a life-or-death struggle, so once these troops found themselves flung aside and bruised, they wouldn’t attack her again.

If it were a battlefield of blood and steel, although ten thousand would still be no match for Shuangshuang, she wouldn’t easily subdue them like she did now.

The soldiers’ minds are simple: discontent leads them to resistance and laziness, but once subdued, they’re easy to command, especially remembering the pain inflicted by Shuangshuang’s punches — it’s impossible not to be obedient.

On the first day, Shuangshuang didn’t fight herself but had her trained troops spar one-to-ten with these men. At first, the soldiers were defiant, feeling Shuangshuang underestimated them, thinking even if her men were strong, could they really stand against ten of them? Though untrained, they were still robust and strong lads.

But once again, reality slapped them. Her soldiers effortlessly handled one against ten, whether individually or cooperating; they were all knocked flat. After a day, life seemed questionable.

When everyone had been pretty much overwhelmed, Shuangshuang had the villagers from Yu Family Village withdraw and line up neatly behind her. She scanned the soldiers still sprawled across the ground, bruised and pathetic, yet showed no pity.

She stepped onto the high platform and coolly said, "What, do you crumble at a mere setback?" Her voice wasn’t loud, yet propelled by inner strength, it resonated in everyone’s ears.

Beaten down by Shuangshuang and the villagers behind her, these soldiers lay there indifferent, like dead dogs, wondering, where was their pride, their face? Did they even have that anymore?

Shuangshuang was unbothered. She paced leisurely atop the platform, continuing, "Do you think the people I’ve brought are formidable? Do you wish to become such formidable figures yourselves?"

The soldiers turned their heads towards her, their eyes glimmering with desire. Clearly, they deeply wished to be formidable individuals.

Shuangshuang chuckled softly, "Do you know, these were once ordinary villagers. But through my training, each has become capable of defeating hundreds in combat; together they form the most elite force.

And you, if you comply with commands and follow my guidance, I promise you’ll soon become an elite force. Maintain enduring practice and you’ll grow ever more formidable."

As Shuangshuang spoke, the eyes of the soldiers on the ground grew brighter; they endured their pain, rose up, and lined up neatly before her.

A smile slowly spread across Shuangshuang’s face. She raised her voice and shouted, "Now, answer me loudly — Do you have the confidence to become the most formidable soldiers?"

"Yes." "We have confidence." "We want to be the most formidable soldiers." "We will become the most formidable soldiers!"

With her prompt, the soldiers’ replies evolved from sporadic to a unified loud roar: We will become the most formidable soldiers!

The voices of ten thousand men echoed in unison across the camp, dispersing yet binding ten thousand beliefs together. In this moment, these ten thousand troops were completely won over by Shuangshuang!

In the ensuing days, Shuangshuang taught these soldiers some easy-to-learn and useful martial skills, as well as practical battlefield techniques and weapon use.

How to strike an enemy effectively to render them immobile, which vulnerable spots in the human body are lethal — indeed, what Shuangshuang taught was more a method of killing than mere martial arts!

While Shuangshuang was busy training her troops, her exploits in the camp were soon reported to Wang Jingqi. Upon reading the spy’s message from the camp, Wang Jingqi couldn’t help but show a satisfied smile.

Sure enough, his judgment was sound; Shuangshuang was a talent who swiftly subdued her soldiers and got them on track, a speed that impressed Wang Jingqi, who, although confident in his eye for talent, hadn’t expected Shuangshuang to win over the soldiers so quickly.

Surveying the account of Shuangshuang’s swiftly decisive conquest, Wang Jingqi couldn’t help but commend her, and he handed the report to his trusted advisor, Mu Chang’an.

Mu Chang’an was an elegant mid-aged scholar, son of a loyal minister lamentably exiled to a disease-ridden frontier by a dull-witted emperor. Such places might be wellness retreats today, but in ancient times, they were barren wastelands.

Born in this climate, Mu Chang’an habitually carried a fan year-round, a habit he couldn’t shake even after leaving — a gentle scholar now still dressed in flowing robes, fan in hand, he exuded graceful charm.

With a smile, Mu Chang’an scanned the report, then congratulated Wang Jingqi, "Congratulations, sire, you’ve acquired an excellent general. This Murong General is indeed remarkable.

First using her trained soldiers to intimidate, she broke the resistive spirit of a thousand men with imposing momentum, leaving them feeling a sense of inferiority.

Then with extraordinary martial arts, she won the soldiers’ recognition, preventing them from underestimating her due to her being a woman. Following that, she had her aides spar with the soldiers, completely stripping them of the few remaining traces of pride, and easing the last bit of discomfort with their being led by a female general."
