Qi Long saw that the two lieutenant colonels before him had invited him to join their battle clan. He put on a sincere and apologetic expression and said, "Thank you for your kindness, sir. However, Qi Long already has a battle clan."
"A battle team?" The two lieutenant colonels frowned. One of them asked, "Which battle team did you join?"
Qi Long's eyes were filled with pride. He said loudly, "Lingtian Battle Team!"
"Lingtian Battle Team?" The two lieutenant colonels looked at each other. They had never heard of this battle team before.
The other officers who were interested in Zilong and the other recruits started to search for information about the Lingtian Battle Team. However, they couldn't find any information about this battle team.
Just as everyone was busy searching for the Lingtian Battle Team, the major walked up and asked, "Who is Luo Lang?"
Luo Lang quickly saluted and replied, "Sir, it's me."
The major looked at Luo Lang's face and figure. His expression froze. He thought to himself, 'Is this a female? A female? A female? The system actually wrote him as a male. There must be something wrong with his level too. How can such a skinny person be an ace operator? '
The major immediately eliminated Luo Lang from the list. He smiled and replied, "Your results are not bad. I hope you can continue to work hard." He immediately shouted, "Who is Xie Yi?"
Xie Yi knew that the major didn't like Luo Lang because of his skinny face and figure. He wanted to reply respectfully but he immediately put his hands in his pockets and replied casually, "That's me, Sir. What's the matter?"
The major frowned again. It seemed that this young man was a little cunning and wasn't easy to control. He immediately said with a stern expression, "Although your results are not bad, you can't be arrogant. After entering the division, you must have a proper attitude."
Xie Yi replied perfunctorily. The major's face instantly turned purple. The other team leaders who were watching couldn't help but laugh. They were originally angry that Luo Lang was one step ahead of them but now, they calmed down. It wasn't that one could gain the upper hand just by being one step ahead. Sometimes, the one who was first could only become the stone that was thrown to test the waters.
Although the major was very angry, he did not lose his mind. In fact, he was already mentally prepared that the recruits were difficult to deal with. Recruits with strength were often difficult to deal with. He had been like this in the past.
The major swallowed his anger and wanted to see how the person in last place was doing. Thus, he continued to scan the crowd and asked, "Is Li Yingjie here?"
"What's up? Li Yingjie raised his chin and looked at them arrogantly from the corner of his eyes. He was even more arrogant than Xie Yi. It should be said that Li Yingjie's expression and posture were definitely asking for a beating. It was enough to make others itch to beat him up.
The major realized that although there were five ace operators on the list of freshmen, other than Zilong who was a good soldier, the other four were all problematic. Ling Lan had defeated the captain of the Sting Team, Lian Shaojing the moment he entered the division. Normal team leaders wouldn't dare to accept him as they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to suppress him. As for the remaining three, they were all troublesome.
Luo Lang's body was neither male nor female. His body was thin and weak. The major didn't know if there was something wrong with the system. Even if there was nothing wrong with it, Luo Lang might have used some secret method to become an ace operator. This type of ace operator was actually just a fake ace operator. His actual battle prowess might not even be comparable to a peak special-class operator.
Xie Yi was slippery and had a perfunctory attitude. He was definitely not an obedient member. If he was accepted into the battle team, the discipline of the battle team might be broken.
Li Yingjie was also an arrogant person. This type of person would not be willing to bow down to others. He would probably reject the invitation directly. At most, he would agree to be a temporary member. After a few years, when the time was right, he would definitely form his own battle team.
Of course, the major wouldn't be satisfied with just a temporary member. He wanted his battle team to advance. Coincidentally, he was lacking an ace operator. After thinking for a while, he raised his head and looked at Xie Yi. He said, "Xie Yi, I'm the leader of the Flying Tiger Battle Team, Guo Yongan. I hope to invite you to join our battle team and become one of us."
Xie Yi looked at the major in surprise. He hadn't expected that despite his performance, the major would still choose him. He looked at Luo Lang, who was as beautiful as a flower, and then looked at Li Yingjie, who was annoying to beat up. Finally, he realised that if one were to pick the tallest among the shorties, he really was the most presentable of the three...
Xie Yi didn't know if he should praise himself or light a candle for himself. In the end, he sighed helplessly and said, "I'm sorry, sir. I also have a battle team now."
'Again?' 'Who is so fast and ruthless?' The major finally understood how the two lieutenant colonels felt. He gritted his teeth and said, "Who is it?"
Xie Yi shrugged. He pointed at Zilong who was not far in front of him and said, "Didn't Zilong say it already? It's Lingtian. "
'Lingtian again. But what is this Lingtian? Why can't we find out anything about it?' Everyone was confused. Those who knew Lingtian started discussing among themselves. Right at that moment, a person suddenly appeared in front of Zilong. Everyone was shocked. The noisy registration hall instantly quietened down.
The person who suddenly appeared was around 30 to 40 years old. His eyes were bright and piercing. He was tall and straight. Just by standing there, he gave off an intimidating aura. His appearance wasn't the only thing that silenced everyone. Everyone could see his military rank clearly. He was a senior colonel. The epaulets on his shoulders weren't for mecha operators. They were for the commander of a mecha clan. They were for the commander of a mecha clan.
"Zilong, Luo Lang, Xie Yi, Li Yingjie?" The person glanced at the four of them. When he saw Luo Lang, he frowned like the major. However, he didn't give up on his original plan.
"Yes, Sir." Zilong and the other three got nervous. They immediately saluted and replied.
"I'm the regiment commander of East Seventh Division's 211 Ace Mecha Clan, Shen Rufei. I'm giving the four of you special permission to enter our mecha clan," Shen Rufei said seriously, "The order will be given soon."
He had already applied to the headquarters of the 23rd Division. The headquarters should be giving him a reply soon. Ace mecha masters who didn't have a battle team could directly apply for a transfer. However, they needed to get the approval of the headquarters first.
The reason why Shen Rufei placed so much importance on Zilong and the others was that the 211 Ace Mecha Clan suffered heavy losses during the battle last year. They needed to replenish their manpower. Unfortunately, there were too few people who managed to become ace operators in the past two years. He had no choice but to recruit them from other divisions. However, ace operators were the most important fighting force of the divisions. No one would be willing to give them to their allies. Hence, he held onto them tightly.
Shen Rufei didn't know what to do. He knew that there were five ace mecha masters so he rushed over. He wanted to snatch the five ace mecha masters from the other battle teams before they managed to recruit them.
Zilong, Luo Lang, and Xie Yi looked at each other worriedly. Li Yingjie had an idea. It wasn't a bad idea to enter a mecha clan. However, when he saw the unwillingness on the faces of Zilong and the other two, he didn't want to go.
In the end, Zilong replied, "Sir, I'm sorry. We already have a battle team. We don't want to go to a mecha clan." Ace mecha masters who had a battle team could choose whether they wanted to go to a mecha clan or not.
"Lingtian?" Shen Rufei's face darkened. "Do you know that you will be court-martialed for lying? You have a bright future ahead of you. Don't ruin yourselves. "
If Shen Rufei tried to calm them down, Zilong and the others would have explained themselves. However, Shen Rufei's words were threatening so they didn't want to give up.
Zilong pressed Luo Lang down and said seriously, "Sir, I'll say it again. We already have a battle team. We don't want to go to a mecha clan."
"Lingtian?" Shen Rufei was so angry that he laughed.
"Yes. Our battle team is called Lingtian," Zilong replied fearlessly.
"Unfortunately, this battle team doesn't exist in the mainframe of the 23rd Division." Shen Rufei smiled coldly. "If I report this, your military career will end."
"It doesn't exist now but it doesn't mean it won't exist in the future," Zilong replied calmly.
"Unfortunately, you won't have the chance. There are still four hours before the registration ends. If you don't have a battle team after you register, I will have the right to transfer you to my mecha clan." Shen Rufei didn't want to accept these four new recruits. One of the reasons was that he didn't have enough manpower. The other reason was that he felt that he had embarrassed the entire 23rd Division. He was the commanding officer of a mecha clan but he was rejected by four new recruits. It was a slap in his face.
Hence, he had to recruit these four people into his mecha clan and send them to the most dangerous missions. Shen Rufei didn't think that he was wrong. If these four people were capable enough to survive the missions, he would recommend them to the higher positions they deserved. Shen Rufei didn't think that he was wrong. If these four people were capable enough to survive the missions, he wouldn't be stingy with his recommendations. He would give them a high position and a good salary.
In fact, a few captains wanted to step in but were stopped by those who knew Shen Rufei well. Although the four recruits were strong, they would still be able to fight for them in the future. It was not worth offending Shen Rufei for them.
The team leaders who didn't know Shen Rufei gave up when they heard the reminder. Shen Rufei was actually the grandnephew of a god-class operator in the Federation. He was also the nephew of the Second Marshal. Even General Ling Xiao had to give some face to the god-class operator and the Second Marshal as long as Shen Rufei didn't go overboard.
Time passed very quickly. Two hours had passed, and they still hadn't received any news from Ling Lan. Meanwhile, the new recruits had already finished registering. Only Qi Long's group hadn't registered yet. Everyone's attention was focused on Qi Long's group, waiting for them to make a move.
"What's wrong? You don't dare to register? "Shen Rufei mocked them." Are you afraid that your lies will be exposed? Lingtian Battle Team? Haha, they are just a bunch of cowards! "
"Lingtian doesn't have cowards!" A firm voice suddenly sounded in the quiet registration hall.
Along with this voice, two people suddenly appeared in the registration hall. One of them was well-built and had a square face that was filled with a murderous aura. The other was thin and wore a silver half-mask. He had a gentle temperament and a pair of starry eyes that shone brightly. As the light flashed in his eyes, it was unconsciously mesmerizing.
"Ah, it's them." Many people exclaimed.
Shen Rufei's eyes turned dark. "Zhao Jun, Li Lanfeng! You want to interfere? Is this Nameless' idea? "
Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng were two of the three most outstanding recruits three years ago. Three years had allowed them to grow up. Their battle records were outstanding and they were praised by the headquarters many times. Even he didn't want to offend them. Plus, they had Nameless behind them.
Nameless wasn't a person's name. It was the name of a battle team. It was the only five-star battle team in the 23rd Division that didn't belong to the special forces. Back then, for some reason, they managed to recruit the three most outstanding recruits.
However, this wasn't enough to make Shen Rufei afraid. Shen Rufei learned from his grandfather, who was a god-class operator, that Nameless was a subsidiary battle team of a legendary battle team. The leader of that legendary battle team was a god-class operator just like his grandfather.
His grandfather guessed that the god-class operator was Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao was the general of the 23rd Division. He was the most powerful person in the 23rd Division.
"We have nothing to do with Nameless." Zhao Jun glared at Shen Rufei. Although Shen Rufei's military rank was higher than his, they belonged to different divisions. Zhao Jun wasn't afraid of him.
"Senior Colonel Shen, you insulted our people just now. Shouldn't you give us an answer?" Li Lanfeng smiled. His attitude was gentle but his words weren't.
Everyone gasped when they heard Li Lanfeng's words. Someone from their battle team? Could it be that Zilong and the others were chosen by Nameless? After thinking about the background of Li Lanfeng and the others, everyone understood that their senior brothers had already made arrangements for their junior brothers.
Shen Rufei had the same thought too. He was instantly enraged. He felt that he was slapped in the face by Nameless. He didn't dare to vent his anger on the Nameless Battle Team. He hated Zilong and the others even more. If they had said that they were going to join Nameless, he wouldn't have said those threatening words. He wouldn't have been humiliated like this.
'These bastards. I must teach them a lesson. I must!' Shen Rufei thought viciously.
"What's wrong? You don't want to give me an answer?" Li Lanfeng raised his eyebrows. He had a mocking expression on his face. He and Zhao Jun knew about Shen Rufei's background but … so what? He wouldn't let anyone who insulted his battle team go.
Shen Rufei had an idea. He immediately said, "I'm talking about the people from Lingtian. I didn't say Nameless." He didn't want to offend Nameless. He didn't want to offend the legendary battle team. He didn't want to offend the god-class operator who might be Ling Xiao.
"Lingtian? Haha, Senior Colonel Shen. As expected, you can insult people without batting an eyelid. Do you think that Lingtian is a pushover? "Li Lanfeng sneered.
Zhao Jun lifted his leg and kicked a chair at the side. He bent down and picked it up. He used his hands to break the legs of the chair. He passed one of the legs to Li Lanfeng. He held the other leg in his hand and knocked on his palm. "Senior Colonel Shen, since you dare to insult Lingtian in public, Lingtian can only propose a duel to settle this once and for all."
In order to raise the morale and combat power of the soldiers in the army, the army tacitly approved the private fights between the various battle teams. Of course, fights for no reason were not allowed. However, once a battle team member was verbally bullied or insulted by the opponent, the battle team member could propose a fight to the opponent, and the opponent could not refuse.
