A combat division was an independent department. Its main responsibility was to fight against external forces, such as space pirates and other evil forces that threatened the survival of the human race. Therefore, the members of the combat division had to be strong enough.
There were two large Stellar-level starships in the Sword Edge Judgement Army, the Sword Edge Ship and the Judgement Ship.
The swordsmen on the Sword Edge Ship were of a lower level, while the swordsmen on the Judgement Ship were of a higher level.
The swordsmen on the Sword Edge Ship were mostly in the Creation Realm. Most of them were high-level Sword Of Gojoseon. There were very few mid-level Sword Of Gojoseon. If Chu Mu was not counted, the weakest one was a six-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Of course, the department heads, deputy department heads, and deputy commanders were not counted.
On the Judgement Ship, the weakest swordsmen were at the First Firmament of the Nirvana Realm. None of them were lower than the First Firmament of the Nirvana Realm.
The Wind Division was responsible for gathering intelligence. After gathering intelligence and judging the strength of the enemy, the combat division's battle teams would then take action.
The Sword Edge Ship's battle teams were naturally in charge of clearing out opponents in the Creation Realm, while the Judgement Ship's battle teams were in charge of clearing out opponents in the Nirvana Realm.
As for surpassing the Nirvana Realm, it was not something that Chu Mu could understand at his level.
At this time, in the battalion, Battalion Head Yun Feng, Vice Heads Du Men and Xia Jin, as well as the captains and vice captains of the various battle teams were seated around an oval table. They looked like they were holding a meeting of the highest level.
The two deputy department heads, as well as the captains and deputy captains, were very puzzled by their attitude.
Chu Mu sat quietly at the side. He vaguely knew that Yun Feng's actions had something to do with him.
"I called you here to discuss the ownership of Chu Mu." As soon as Yun Feng opened his mouth, he stated the purpose of gathering everyone. Everyone was stunned, except for Shangguan Hua, who looked calm.
"Department Head, I think there is no need to discuss it. Let Chu Mu join our Eighth Team," Shangguan Hua said. "Before this, I have already discussed it with Chu Mu."
As soon as Shangguan Hua said that, many people felt that it was unbelievable. However, some of them looked thoughtful.
"Chu Mu, is that so?" Yun Feng had prepared a lot of words to emphasize Chu Mu's importance, but he was choked by Shangguan Hua's words. He could only cough dryly and look at Chu Mu as he asked.
Shangguan Hua quickly looked at Chu Mu and blinked her eyes. She wanted Chu Mu to cooperate with her.
"Yes." Chu Mu could only answer.
Actually, Chu Mu didn't know any of the battle teams in the combat division. Shangguan Hua had invited him directly, and she had indeed invited him before. If Chu Mu said no, Shangguan Hua would lose face, and Chu Mu would offend him because of this.
Chu Mu didn't really care about losing face or offending Shangguan Hua. Since Shangguan Hua had invited him, he didn't have any other thoughts, so he agreed.
"Since you have agreed, then you will be a member of the Eighth Team from now on." Yun Feng nodded and said seriously, "Dong Ting, Chu Mu will be a member of your battle team from now on. You must treat everyone equally. The most important thing for him now is to improve his cultivation and strength."
The special instructions showed that Yun Feng valued Chu Mu, which made everyone feel surprised. They didn't understand why the department head would value a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon so much. Could it be that he was the department head's illegitimate son?
Of course, no one dared to say such a bad guess. Otherwise, they would be tortured by the department head.
"Yes, department head." Dong Ting straightened his body and said. He looked like a person who didn't like to smile.
Yun Feng waved his hand to disperse everyone and walked to Chu Mu's side. He patted Chu Mu's shoulder, "You're very talented. Your potential is something I've never seen before in my life. However, your cultivation is still too low. Therefore, the most important thing for you right now is to raise your cultivation. Only by raising your cultivation will you be able to become even stronger. Only by going out to do missions will you be able to protect your life and better complete missions."
"I will work hard to cultivate, department head." Chu Mu replied.
"Good. I hope that the next time I see you, you will be stronger." Yun Feng said. He took back his hand and walked past Chu Mu, leaving the combat division.
"Chu Mu, come. I will introduce you to the members of the Eighth Team." Shangguan Hua walked over and said to Chu Mu. Dong Ting also nodded. However, the other vice-captain of the Eighth Team didn't think much of it.
He was just a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon. No matter how outstanding he was, there was no need to pay so much attention to him.
"There are a total of 18 teams in the combat division. Each team has one captain and two vice-captains. There are at least 30 members in total." While leading the way, Shangguan Hua introduced them to Chu Mu, "The number of members in each team is different. For example, the Eighth Team, including you, has a total of 33 members."
Soon, the four of them arrived at the Eighth Team. It was a small division in the combat division. Each team had its own division.
In this division, there were some swordsmen training or sparring.
"Captain."
"Captain, vice-captain, you are here. The department head summoned you. Is there anything important?"
When they saw Dong Ting, Shangguan Hua, and the others, the swordsmen greeted them.
"Captain, who is this? He is only at the Fourth Firmament of Creation Realm. What is he doing here?" A team member looked at Chu Mu curiously and asked.
"Everyone, come here," Dong Ting shouted. Immediately, the team members moved quickly and gathered.
"Shangguan, you introduce them." Dong Ting directly threw this task to Shangguan Hua. He was not good with words.
"Everyone, let's first welcome our new teammate, our new partner, Chu Mu," Shangguan Hua announced loudly. Immediately, there were gasps of surprise as they looked at each other.
"Vice-captain Shangguan, are you right? His cultivation is only …" A team member looked surprised.
"I am not wrong. Although Chu Mu's cultivation is only at the Fourth Firmament of Creation Realm, his swordsmanship is very brilliant. He is not inferior to me at all." Shangguan Hua said solemnly. His words not only shocked the team members, but even the other vice-captain widened his eyes in surprise. Dong Ting already knew about it, so there was nothing special about it.
Immediately, each and every one of them looked at Chu Mu with even more astonishment. Those pairs of eyes seemed to want to see through Chu Mu.
"Alright, Chu Mu is now a member of our Eighth Battle Team. He is also our partner. Although his cultivation is still relatively weak, his potential is very deep. Not to mention our Eighth Battle Team, even in the entire combat division and the entire Sword Edge, no one can compare to him in terms of potential. This is because he won the Best Recruit Medal," Shangguan Hua said in one breath in order to make everyone pay more attention to Chu Mu.
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, everyone's eyes were even more surprised and shocked.
The winner of the Best Recruit Medal indeed had astonishing potential. However, there were some people who weren't convinced. After all, he was just a brat who was a mere 4-star Sword King. No matter what, he was still a newbie here.
"We are a combat division's battle team. We are a battle team that has to fight against strong enemies, not a nanny team. I think he should go to the garrison division," a team member in a purple robe said.
"I am sure that if your words were heard by the minister, you would definitely end up in a miserable state," Shangguan Hua said with a smile. That person was confused.
"Alright, Shangguan, let's make the introductions first," Dong Ting interrupted.
"Now, let me finish the introductions." Shangguan Hua clapped her hands and said, "You already know vice-captain Hua Ye. He is Min Qiang, he is Li Lianyun, he is Jiang Gu, he is …"
Shangguan Hua introduced the names of the twenty-nine team members to Chu Mu one by one. Other than Chu Mu, the Eighth Battle Team originally had thirty-two people. Captain Dong Ting, vice-captain Shangguan Hua, and Hua Ye were all swordsmen at the peak of the Ninth Heaven of Fortune Realm. As for the other twenty-nine people, nine of them were nine-star Sword Of Gojoseon, twelve of them were eight-star Sword Of Gojoseon, and the remaining eight were seven-star Sword Of Gojoseon.
Chu Mu was a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Among all the team members, his cultivation was the lowest.
Other than his name and cultivation, Shangguan Hua did not know anything else. However, that would take time. It was not something that could be explained verbally.
"His name is Chu Mu. He is the winner of the Best Recruit Medal in the Sword Casting Star this time. He has amazing potential and superb sword skills. It is our Eighth Battle Team's fortune to be able to join us." Shangguan Hua said in the end. What she said was very reasonable because she had seen with her own eyes how the heads of the three major departments quarreled until their faces turned red. They had even almost fought over Chu Mu's ownership.
However, the others did not know the specific situation. When they heard Shangguan Hua's repeated emphasis, they immediately frowned. A hint of mockery flashed in Hua Ye's eyes, but Dong Ting's expression did not change.
"Vice-captain Shangguan, I have a suggestion." Suddenly, a seven-star Sword Of Gojoseon spoke. They belonged to the same battle team and were familiar with each other. Therefore, there was no special taboo when they spoke.
"What suggestion?" Shangguan Hua looked at the seven-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Chu Mu knew that the seven-star Sword Of Gojoseon's name was Lin Kai, and his cultivation was at the late stage of the Seventh Heaven of Creation Realm.
"Our battle team originally had 32 members. We are familiar with each other and cooperate well during missions. However, there is one more person now, and he is only a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon. Once we go on a diplomatic mission, he can't possibly stay on the starship. If that's the case, it would be better to transfer him to the garrison." Lin Kai spoke with assurance. "Since we are going on a diplomatic mission, we must know exactly how strong he is so that we can cooperate better. Don't you all agree?"
"Lin Kai is right. No matter what his potential is, he is at the Fourth Heaven of Creation Realm. If he wants to be recognized by us, he must have sufficient strength. Otherwise, he will not be able to integrate into our battle team," another seven-star Sword Of Gojoseon said bluntly.
Shangguan Hua frowned. The reason why she had invited Chu Mu to join the Eighth Battle Team was because of Chu Mu's potential. As for his strength, as long as he worked hard to cultivate, he would definitely improve.
However, in this situation …
"What is considered sufficient strength?" Chu Mu suddenly asked.
