Upon seeing Wang Bin's movements, Battalion Commander Zhang immediately recognized the martial arts technique Wang Bin was about to use.
Battalion Commander Zhang was extremely puzzled. Just a moment ago, Wang Bin was using the Diamond Palm, and now he switched to Tai Chi. How many martial arts techniques does this guy actually know?
"Am I being underestimated?"
With this thought, Battalion Commander Zhang angrily clenched his fists and charged at Wang Bin once again.
In fact, Battalion Commander Zhang misunderstood Wang Bin. The reason Wang Bin switched to Tai Chi was that he felt he had almost mastered the Diamond Palm, and Battalion Commander Zhang was a rare sparring partner. How could he miss such a good opportunity to improve his Tai Chi?
As soon as they clashed, Battalion Commander Zhang felt very uncomfortable, as if he were hitting cotton, making him extremely unaccustomed.
Previously, when Wang Bin used the Diamond Palm, it felt great. The hard-hitting sensation made his blood boil, but now he couldn't exert any strength, leaving him very frustrated.
All of Battalion Commander Zhang's punches were neutralized by Wang Bin. To be precise, most of the force was dissipated, and Wang Bin would occasionally seize the opportunity to use the opponent's strength against him. When Battalion Commander Zhang's punch was at its weakest, Wang Bin would lightly guide it, instantly disrupting Battalion Commander Zhang's rhythm. If Battalion Commander Zhang wasn't careful, Wang Bin's fist would strike, leaving him in a sorry state.
The more Battalion Commander Zhang fought, the more stifled he felt, growing increasingly impatient. Gradually, he lost a bit of his composure, allowing Wang Bin to seize the opportunity to land a heavy punch, forcing him back five or six steps before he could steady himself.
He wanted to continue attacking, but as soon as he took a step, he felt a sharp pain in his abdomen. He realized he had suffered internal injuries, and not minor ones at that.
Battalion Commander Zhang was astonished to find a circular mark under Wang Bin's feet, shocked at the thought that Wang Bin hadn't stepped out of that circle the entire time!
He had heard of the power of Tai Chi before, saying that masters of Tai Chi didn't need to step out of their circle while performing. He had encountered Tai Chi practitioners before, but none were as skilled as him, so he had never seen this legendary phenomenon. Now, he had witnessed it firsthand and experienced its power.
He was defeated, utterly defeated!
"I lost!"
Although Battalion Commander Zhang didn't want to admit it, a man must own up to his losses.
"Wow!"

"Brother Wang won!"
"Uncle Wang is amazing!"
"Wang Bin, well done!"
The moment Battalion Commander Zhang admitted defeat, Guan Xiaoyue and the others, who were sitting on the grass, jumped up excitedly and rushed toward Wang Bin.
As everyone gathered around Wang Bin, they lifted him up and tossed him into the air, catching him and tossing him again.
Wang Bin was also very excited, but seeing Battalion Commander Zhang's desolate figure, his heart softened, and he quickly shouted.
"Battalion Commander Zhang, wait a moment!"
Hearing Wang Bin's shout, Battalion Commander Zhang stopped, turned around to look at Wang Bin, and Li Dazhu and the others put Wang Bin down.
Wang Bin walked over to Battalion Commander Zhang with a smile and said, "I'm sorry, that punch probably hurt your internal organs. I have a remedy for internal injuries; you can give it a try."
"Thank you, but there's no need!"
"Why not?"
"There's no traditional Chinese medicine here; even with a remedy, I can't find the herbs!"
"Oh, that's not a problem. I have the medicine in my backpack; I'll go get it for you."
"Ah! Thank you!"
"You're welcome; I'll bring it to your camp later!"
"Okay, thanks!"
Battalion Commander Zhang didn't expect Wang Bin to be so kind, offering to treat his internal injuries.
Earlier, when he heard that Wang Bin shared grenades and bullets with Company Commander Liu, he was a bit skeptical. But seeing him selflessly offer precious medicine for his internal injuries, he believed it.
Soon, Wang Bin was surrounded by people, all expressing their desire to become his disciples.
Guan Xiaoyue noticed one person sitting nearby who had said Wang Bin would lose. She held grudges and coldly said to him, "Didn't you just say my brother would lose?"
The person felt embarrassed upon hearing this and said with a smile, "I was just talking nonsense; don't take it seriously!"
"Hmph!"
As everyone surrounded Wang Bin, eager to become his disciples, a military officer strode over and said loudly.
"Wang Bin, our commander would like to see you!"
"Ah, okay!"
Hearing the officer's words, everyone stepped aside, making way for Wang Bin.
"You all go back first; I'll be there shortly."
"Okay, we'll wait for you!"
Guan Xiaoyue felt a bit nervous seeing Wang Bin being taken away, as they all thought the commander was unhappy about Wang Bin defeating Battalion Commander Zhang and wanted to give him a hard time.
On the way, Wang Bin tried to ask the officer why the commander wanted to see him, but the officer was tight-lipped and wouldn't reveal a word. Soon, Wang Bin was brought to the command office.
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"Wang Bin, I've brought him!"
"Very well, you may leave!"
"Yes!"
"Wang Bin, please have a seat!"
"Thank you!"
When Wang Bin entered, he saw only two people in the office: Commander Li Junshan and Political Commissar Wang Shun.
Commander Li Junshan seemed pleased, but Wang Shun had a stern expression, leaving Wang Bin unsure if this was good or bad news.
"We watched your match with Battalion Commander Zhang just now. Your martial arts skills are impressive, defeating our top soldier!"
"Just lucky, just lucky!"
"Not bad, winning without arrogance. Are you interested in becoming an instructor?"
"Instructor?"
"In martial arts terms, a master instructor, to be precise!"
"Ah, my skills aren't worthy of such a position, and I've never taught anyone before. I think I'll pass!"
"Don't be so quick to refuse. To be honest, the current situation is unfavorable for us. The zombies are becoming more aggressive, faster, and more agile. We've just received intelligence that zombies from the surrounding areas are converging on us. We're nearing a critical moment of life and death, and we need someone like you to help us defend our home!"
"Ah, is that so?"
"Yes, so I want to select young and strong individuals from the civilians and have you train them to help us resist the zombie attacks!"
"I'd like to, but my martial arts skills aren't suitable for fighting zombies!"
"That's not a problem. I've found an assistant for you. We have a Company Commander Li in our unit who knows a traditional family gun technique. He'll teach you some basic shooting skills to pass on to the civilians."
"Ah, then why not have him teach?"
"He has his duties, and since you defeated our top soldier, your reputation among the civilians is very high. It's more appropriate for you to lead their training!"
"Alright, I agree!"
"Thank you! You can go back now; I'll have Company Commander Li find you later!"
"Okay, I'll take my leave then!"
"Yes, and for now, don't mention the zombie situation to others to avoid causing panic!"
"Understood!"
