As the voice sounded out, the crowd automatically opened up a path.
A dignified middle-aged man wearing exquisite armor slowly walked into the crowd under the escort of two generals.
His gaze fell upon Yu Xiang.
Yu Xiang's expression changed.
"Greetings to the Vice Commander, greetings to the two Chiliarchs."
The sturdy general respectfully bowed towards the three people.
"Vice Commander, Chiliarchs."
The surrounding youths, including the unsightly Yu Xiang, all respectfully bowed.
Only a purple-clothed youth stood there, unmoved.
"Why aren't you bowing?"
The dignified middle-aged man, who was the Vice Commander of the Iron Blood Army, deeply looked at Duan Lingtian as he asked.
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan both broke out in cold sweat for Duan Lingtian.
The corners of Yu Xiang's mouth curled into a cold smile, feeling that Duan Lingtian was going to be unlucky …
"I'm not a member of the Iron Blood Army now, why should I bow to you?"
Duan Lingtian said indifferently.
"How dare you!"
The expressions of the two Chiliarchs behind the Vice Commander changed as they shouted out explosively.
Instantly, two dense killing auras enveloped Duan Lingtian, as if wanting to subdue Duan Lingtian …
However, they were destined to be disappointed.
Duan Lingtian stood where he was, unmoved.
The expressions of the two Chiliarchs froze, their faces full of surprise.
Was this really a sixteen or seventeen year old youth?
He actually ignored the killing aura that they had developed from slaughtering on the battlefield.
If they knew what Duan Lingtian did in his previous life, perhaps they wouldn't be so surprised.
The Vice Commander looked deeply at Duan Lingtian, and asked with interest, "What's the reason behind this? They're not members of the Iron Blood Army, why should they bow to us? "
"Them?"
Duan Lingtian swept the surrounding youths with his gaze, and slowly said, "There are only three reasons why they bow to you. First, fear you. Second, admire you. Third, blindly follow the crowd. "
"Fear? Respect? Follow the trend? Haha … Interesting, interesting. I have to say that your words have hit the nail on the head. "
The Vice Commander nodded, revealing a rare smile.
Xiao Yu and Meng Quan heaved a sigh of relief.
The expressions of Yu Xiang, Yu Xiao, and the rest of the Yu Family youths were very ugly.
"So, you're not afraid of us, you don't admire us, and you're not blindly following us, right?"
The vice commander asked again.
"Yes."
Duan Lingtian nodded.
"How dare you!"
The Vice Commander's expression suddenly changed as he let out a roar. An even more terrifying murderous aura enveloped Duan Lingtian.
Not only that, but this murderous aura also spread out in all directions, causing the surrounding youths' expressions to change.
Even Yu Xiang's face turned red from the pressure.
At this moment, apart from the two Chiliarchs, the Centurion, and the Vice Commander himself, there was only one person present who wasn't affected in the slightest.
That person was Duan Lingtian, who was at the center of the murderous aura.
Duan Lingtian stood there, unmoving like a mountain. His expression was calm, as if even if Mt. Tai collapsed in front of him, his expression wouldn't change …
"Good!"
The Vice Commander suddenly smiled, his eyes revealing a trace of appreciation, "Little guy, what's your name?"
"Duan Lingtian!"
Duan Lingtian's brows slightly moved.
"Duan Lingtian … Ling Tian … Your name is crazy enough! You actually dare to stand above the heavens. "
The smile on the Vice Commander's face didn't stop, then he said, "I'm the Vice Commander of the Iron Blood Army, Qiao Qingshan, the person in charge of the Genius Camp exam this time. I hope you can smoothly pass the exam, I'm looking forward to your performance. "
"I definitely won't disappoint Vice Commander Qiao."
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled, neither humble nor overbearing.
The surrounding youths were all completely dumbstruck.
When Duan Lingtian was debating with Vice Commander Qiao, they thought that Duan Lingtian was going to be unlucky.
In the end, when they saw Duan Lingtian actually receive Vice Commander Qiao's special treatment, they couldn't help but sigh in admiration …
If it was them, they would probably have been scared to the point of collapsing on the ground by Vice Commander Qiao.
Duan Lingtian!
They all deeply remembered this name.
This youth that dared to confront the Vice Commander of the Iron Blood Army, who had been through hundreds of battles, was bound to be engraved in their hearts.
Yu Xiang's expression became more and more unsightly.
"This fellow …"
His gaze descended onto Duan Lingtian, revealing a trace of viciousness.
Duan Lingtian frowned.
This Yu Xiang really didn't know when to stop.
"Decurion Wang Mang, what you said earlier was very good. You didn't lose face for our Iron Blood Army."
At this moment, Qiao Qingshan looked at the robust general and nodded.
"Lord Vice Commander, this is what I should do."
Wang Mang straightened his body and spoke loudly.
"Very good! Wang Mang, from today onwards, you will replace Yu Hong and be promoted to Centurion … Yu Hong, for privately taking the test number plate for his younger brother and seeking personal gain for his younger brother, he will be demoted to Decurion. "
Qiao Qingshan's expression was calm as he slowly gave the order.
Yu Xiang's expression changed greatly.
He never imagined that he would actually indirectly harm his older brother.
The gaze he looked at Duan Lingtian with became even more vicious …
As far as he was concerned, it was all because of Duan Lingtian!
If it wasn't for Duan Lingtian, Wang Mang wouldn't have been attracted, and the matter wouldn't have developed to such an unmanageable extent.
"Thank you, Lord Vice Commander."
Wang Mang revealed a pleasantly surprised expression and repeatedly thanked.
"This is what you deserve."
Qiao Qingshan nodded.
Seeing all this, a trace of a flowing light flashed past Duan Lingtian's eyes, and a trace of admiration arose in his heart.
He took a deep breath and took a step forward.
"Duan Lingtian pays his respects to Lord Vice Commander!"
Duan Lingtian bowed to Qiao Qingshan.
Qiao Qingshan was dazed for a moment, then reacted and laughed. "You little fellow, you're rather interesting."
Quickly, Qiao Qingshan looked at Yu Xiang. "Yu Xiang, originally I should have taken back the number plate in your hand and disqualified you from participating in the Genius Camp test … But since your older brother has already been punished, I'll let bygones be bygones."
"Thank you, Lord Vice Commander."
Yu Xiang's heart was bitter, but he could only express his thanks.
"Alright, noon has arrived. The Genius Camp test officially begins!"
Qiao Qingshan's voice was like a thunderclap that contained Origin Energy and spread throughout the entire drill grounds …
At the same time, he brought the two Chiliarchs and ascended the high platform in the center of the drill grounds.
"This year, our Iron Blood Army's Genius Camp test will be different from the past. This year's test only has one word, and that is' slaughter '! "
Qiao Qingshan looked at the group of youths before him as he slowly spoke.
Slaughter?
Many youths had puzzled expressions.
"Slightly interesting."
The corners of Duan Lingtian's mouth curled up into a slight smile.
Xiao Yu's face was calm.
Meng Quan's expression slightly changed as he asked, "Duan Lingtian, Xiao Yu, this' slaughter 'wouldn't be referring to killing people, right?"
"What, you've never killed anyone before?"
Duan Lingtian laughed as he asked.
"Of course not!"
Meng Quan shook his head.
"Then you have to learn properly today."
Duan Lingtian laughed.
"You've killed someone before?"
Meng Quan stared.
"Is it very strange?"
Duan Lingtian was dazed.
"I just remembered that you're a freak … Xiao Yu, have you killed anyone before?"
Rolling his eyes at Duan Lingtian, Meng Quan looked at Xiao Yu.
"Yes."
Xiao Yu nodded his head.
Meng Quan bitterly smiled, "Oh no, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass the exam."
"You rascal, the exam hasn't even started yet and you're already slacking off. If it were up to me, you might as well just give up and go home."
Duan Lingtian unhappily said.
"No, I won't go back! I must pass the exam! "
Hearing Duan Lingtian's words, Meng Quan seemed to have thought of something as his gaze suddenly became firm.
This caused Duan Lingtian and Xiao Yu to be somewhat surprised.
It seemed that Meng Quan was also a person with a story …
At this time, the Iron Blood Army's Vice Commander 'Qiao Qingshan' had already started to announce the rules of the exam.
"This year's exam emphasizes' courage ',' strength ', and' teamwork '! Those who participate in the assessment can participate alone, or with a trusted companion … "
Qiao Qingshan said until here.
Duan Lingtian and Xiao Yu looked at each other and smiled.
"Meng Quan, I plan to participate in the exam together with Xiao Yu. Do you want to come with us?"
Duan Lingtian asked.
"Thank you. I know you want to help me, but I still want to rely on myself … You can help me now, but you can't help me forever. "
A trace of gratitude flashed past Meng Quan's eyes as he understood Duan Lingtian's intentions.
"I believe you'll definitely pass the exam."
Duan Lingtian nodded his head.
"That's right. In order to encourage you, Duan Lingtian and I will also face the exam alone."
Xiao Yu also said.
"This time's exam will be carried out in a one versus ten way … The opponent of each of you will be the ten enemy soldiers captured by our Iron Blood Army on the battlefield. Kill ten enemy soldiers and you'll be considered to have passed the exam."
Qiao Qingshan said until here and paused for a moment.
Instantly, the expressions of the group of youths on the drill grounds changed greatly.
"What kind of joke is this? Each of us has to face ten enemy soldiers? Even if those soldiers are far inferior to the elite soldiers of the Iron Blood Army, no matter how weak they are, they will surely be existences at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage or above. If there are some Core Formation martial artists mixed in, how will we deal with them? "
"Yeah, this is simply a death exam!"
… …
The entire drill grounds was in an uproar.
"Quiet!"
Qiao Qingshan's voice covered everyone's voices.
Instantly, the drill grounds returned to its calm state.
"The enemy soldiers we'll arrange for each of you will be six at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Stage, three at the first level of the Core Formation Stage, and one at the second level of the Core Formation Stage … If two people participate in the exam together, then we'll arrange 12 at the ninth level of the Core Formation Stage, six at the first level of the Core Formation Stage, and two at the second level of the Core Formation Stage. If there are three people, then so on and so forth … If any of you don't dare, you can choose to withdraw now and leave the Iron Blood Army's campsite. "
As he finished speaking, Qiao Qingshan's voice became cold and indifferent.
"Now, I'll give you three minutes to consider."
Qiao Qingshan added.
Instantly, the drill grounds fell into chaos once again.
Three minutes passed, and only a mere ten or so people left.
The remaining youths numbered over two hundred people.
"Only so few people left."
Meng Quan was slightly surprised.
"Among the people standing here today, there are only a few people who think they're lucky after all. Most of them have the determination to risk their lives, so how could they easily withdraw from the exam?"
Duan Lingtian saw through everything and hit the nail on the head.
"These enemy soldiers' martial skills are surely far inferior to ours … But they've been on the battlefield and have experienced hundreds of battles. They view killing people as a game and can't be underestimated."
