Chapter 159 - 145 Martial Artist Guards the National Gate
"Given that, why did the live stream say that masters of Traditional Martial Arts are in the military? According to the host’s theory, even the truly formidable ’King of Soldiers’ might not necessarily have strong combat skills, right?"
"Since even Special Soldiers aren’t required to have particularly strong combat skills, that’s even more the case for regular troops."
"Right, so are there any masters in the military?"
...
Netizens brought up a new question, and the director tossed it to Wu Li, who now felt that having Wu Li on the variety show was really appropriate: famous, topical, skilled, good-looking, and notably eloquent and quick-witted, a far cry from the brute of a Martial Artist who only knew how to practice martial arts in his mind.
"The military actually likes to recruit soldiers with a background in Martial Arts. I’ve heard that some special forces units will specifically recruit from Martial Arts Schools, and there are also troops that specialize in combat training, which is for competing in matches and striving for honor; so yes, there are indeed combat masters in the military. Also, some special units’ combat instructors, or people like Zhongnanhai bodyguards or Special Agents, in situations where it’s inconvenient to use guns, require a very high level of combat capability. Therefore, among these people, there might also be combat masters, the kind that are more practical and real-world focused," said Wu Li facing the camera.
"Indeed, in situations where it’s inconvenient to use guns, combat skills are very important. The military or the state should also be specifically training such talents, right?"
"What is the identity of the person the host is visiting this time?"
Finally, someone started to ask about Li Changsheng’s identity, so Wu Li shared the information he had found online last night with the netizens:
"Li Changsheng, born in 1946, joined the army in 1964, and after being discharged in 1976, came to Luo City to become a Drug Enforcement Police. During his tenure, Li Changsheng repeatedly distinguished himself and in 1983 was promoted to Deputy Director of the Luo City Police Department..."
"Damn, seven years from an ordinary staff member to a deputy division-level position, what kind of speed is that?" exclaimed a netizen who understood the industry.
