Boss Huo found his breath stifled for a moment by Ling Lan's question, but fury soon followed in response to Ling Lan's arrogant words. In his extreme rage, he laughed and said, "What shameless boasting. A tiny first year actually daring to threaten us?" Where did these first year students get the gall to do this?
"Oh no, I'm just clarifying our New Cadet Regiment's principles in dealing with outsiders," responded Ling Lan calmly, "I also believe that, the other groups, including senior's Leiting Mecha Clan, will have something similar to this creed as well. We are just doing what we should."
Ling Lan was not wrong. As an organisation, in order to protect the group and the welfare of its members, there must be some action. For example, the Leiting Mecha Clan's method of doing things was even more bossy and tyrannical than what Ling Lan had said. It went to the extent where if an outsider did not want to submit to them, they would be targeted on all fronts.
The upcoming 5 chapters are from DRZ (probie translator's name revealed! :p), though I did check and do some edits on them myself after the editor was done with them. This is only a temporary measure; in future I'm planning to greatly reduce my involvement in any chapter they take. (I'm talking about an hour or more of unpaid time here, 'cause I'm the meticulous type that finds it very difficult to do most anything casually. It's just not practical in the long run. :3) You all can, of course, raise concerns regarding quality at any time, and we'll see what we can do.
---------------
DRZ still isn't confirmed to stay on yet, as QA can only be done after they've completed 10 chaps. Still, you all can expect at least one more bonus chapter in the coming days. *cough* during Boss Lan's fight *cough*.
