416: Chapter 416 Quasi-Chief

Upon entering the recruit camp, the thirty thousand Profound Immortal recruits were summoned.

Commander Xing Ying, a minor commander, also appeared to give a speech to everyone.

This Commander Xing Ying's Cultivation had already reached the third level of the Taiyi Golden Immortal Realm.

Therefore, her Aura was quite formidable.

With just a hint of her Aura released, the thirty thousand recruits fell completely silent, not daring to make a sound.

After the speech ended.

Commander Xing Ying ordered people to distribute a combined attack Formation to everyone, along with one year's salary and a barracks number plate.

Everyone was, after all, a Profound Immortal.

Even as soldiers, they wouldn't be arranged to share a room.

Besides, everyone needed to Cultivate.

If several people lived together and someone sabotaged others while they were Cultivating, it would lead to major conflicts.

Therefore, every recruit was assigned their own room.

After being dismissed.

Ao Ying and Luo Ningshuang followed Chen Hu back to his barracks.

This made the fatty particularly envious.

"Monkey, what do you think Old Chen's background is?"

Hou Yu shook his head: "If you don't know, how would I know."

"That's true!"

The fatty nodded: "But I feel that this guy Old Chen isn't simple; otherwise, how could he have subdued Ao Ying and Luo Ningshuang!"

After entering the assigned barracks.

Chen Hu took out the combined attack Formation and flipped through it.

This combined attack Formation included a three-person combined attack Formation, a ten-person, one-hundred-person, three-hundred-person, five-hundred-person, and one-thousand-person combined attack Formation.

Chen Hu possessed a Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability.

After just flipping through it once, he grasped all six types of combined attack Formations.

Then, he began to explain them to the two women.

Both women were Taiyi Golden Immortals, and their Immortal Souls far exceeded their own Realm.

They had both been nurtured by Chen Hu using various top-tier treasures.

This combined attack Formation wasn't difficult, and with Chen Hu's explanation.

Within just a quarter of an hour, they had completely comprehended it.

Subsequently, the three of them used their strength at the ninth level of the Profound Immortal Realm to activate the three-person combined attack Formation.

It could boost their strength by about thirty percent.

"Boring!"

Ao Ying disdainfully tossed the combined attack Formation aside.

Over the years, Chen Hu had also purchased many Immortal techniques from the System Mall to teach them.

Therefore, a combined attack Formation that only provided a thirty percent boost was truly beneath their notice.

A night passed.

The summoning bell rang.

The thirty thousand Profound Immortal recruits walked out of their barracks one after another.

They arrived at the drill grounds.

Commander Xing Ying's figure appeared on the high platform once again.

She said: "Today, we will select the quasi-thousand-man commanders, quasi-hundred-man commanders, and quasi-ten-man commanders from among you. The selection will be conducted through a king-of-the-hill style challenge. Successfully defending the ring ten times will qualify you as a quasi-thousand-man commander. If the number of people exceeds the quota, the winners will compete against each other."

"Successfully defending the ring five times will qualify you as a quasi-hundred-man commander."

"Successfully defending the ring three times will qualify you as a quasi-ten-man commander."

As soon as she finished speaking, Commander Xing Ying waved her hand, and thirty platforms rose from the ground.

"The competition begins!"

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Thirty figures flashed and appeared on the platforms simultaneously.

Among them were Chen Hu and his two companions.

They each occupied a platform.

"I'll fight you!"

The next moment, a Profound Immortal at the ninth level with the appearance of a middle-aged man rushed onto the number one platform where Chen Hu was.

"I am Huang Yun, please!"

"Please!"

As soon as the words were spoken, Huang Yun launched a fierce attack.

He summoned three top-grade Immortal Artifacts, forming a Sword Qi array that came twisting towards Chen Hu.

A light barrier rose on the platform.

Enveloping the entire platform.

"Bang!"

Chen Hu threw a punch, breaking through the opponent's Sword Qi array, flashed in front of Huang Yun, and the Sword Qi emerging from his fingertip was already pressed against the center of his brow.

"Do you concede?"

Chen Hu asked.

Huang Yun said with a dry tone: "I concede!"

Because he felt that the Sword Qi at Chen Hu's fingertip was enough to pierce his skull.

"The defender, Chen Hu, wins!"

The referee immediately announced.

Following that, three more Profound Immortals at the ninth level came to challenge Chen Hu one after another.

All were easily defeated by him.

Because he won too easily, after he won four consecutive matches, no one came to challenge him anymore.

So Chen Hu asked: "Referee, no one is coming to challenge me, how can I achieve ten consecutive wins?"

The referee smiled: "Don't worry, even if no one challenges you, you only need to stay on the platform for two hours to still earn a spot as a quasi-thousand-man commander!"

"That's good!"

Chen Hu showed a satisfied expression and began to observe the battles on the other platforms.

On the second platform.

Ao Ying used three moves to defeat a Profound Immortal at the ninth level.

On the third platform, Luo Ningshuang used five moves to defeat her third opponent.

Commander Xing Ying, who was watching the battle, beckoned to a female ten-thousand-man commander: "What are the backgrounds of Chen Hu, Ao Ying, and Luo Ningshuang?"

The ten-thousand-man commander said: "It's unclear. The three of them are recruits from a common Immortal City called Linhe City and have no special background."

"Hehe, no special background!"

Commander Xing Ying smiled playfully: "That Chen Hu practices both Immortal Physique and Immortal Qi Dual Cultivation. Not only has his Immortal Qi reached the ninth level of the Profound Immortal Realm, but his Immortal Physique has as well. Moreover, he likely possesses a special Physique related to the Dao of the Sword. His Sword Qi is too strong; I'm afraid there aren't many people who could block his Sword Qi."

"And Ao Ying, this woman has extremely strong combat awareness, and the Immortal techniques she Cultivates are not simple either."

"That Luo Ningshuang is slightly weaker, but among ordinary Profound Immortals at the ninth level, she is also an outstanding existence!"

"For such raw talents to come from an ordinary Immortal City, do you think that makes sense?"

"It probably doesn't make sense!"

The ten-thousand-man commander quickly changed her tone: "My Lord, should we investigate their background?"

"No need!"

Commander Xing Ying said indifferently: "Once they have joined my Xingyao Army, they won't be able to stir up any trouble!"

The commander of the Xingyao Army is a Taiyi Golden Immortal at the ninth level.

Their combat power is quite terrifying.

What kind of trouble could a few mere Profound Immortals stir up?

If they behaved themselves, that would be fine, but if they had to cause trouble, she had plenty of methods to deal with them.

In the blink of an eye.

Two hours passed.

The ring defense battle ended.

However, there were six extra people.

At this moment, Commander Xing Ying called out the names of the six people: "You six can choose to challenge anyone. If you win, you will be a quasi-thousand-man commander!"

Commander Xing Ying's eyes were very sharp.

The six people she picked were the weakest.

It was basically impossible for them to challenge successfully.

In fact, that was the case.

The six of them challenged someone individually, and all failed.

Then, under Commander Xing Ying's announcement, Chen Hu and his two companions all became quasi-thousand-man commanders.

Next, the ring defense for quasi-hundred-man commanders and quasi-ten-man commanders began.

Hou Yu and the fatty Shang Feng both managed to snag a position as quasi-hundred-man commanders in this round of selection.

The selection ended.

The other soldiers returned to the barracks.

All the quasi-officers were summoned to a large hall.

Then, a ten-thousand-man commander explained the combined attack Formation to them.

This made Chen Hu feel sleepy.

In the blink of an eye.

Chen Hu and his two companions had spent three months in the recruit camp.

During these three months, they had been training in the combined attack Formation.

Under Chen Hu's leadership, the soldiers under his command had long since practiced the six sets of combined attack Formations until they were proficient.

This day.

Commander Liu Xing found Chen Hu and handed him a Jade Slip:

"Chen Hu, orders have come from above for you to lead a team to exterminate a group of mountain bandits. This is the map and intelligence regarding those mountain bandits!"

Chen Hu took the Jade Slip and said: "When do we depart?"
