When Xie Tian told Boss Jia and the other two about it, the three of them burst into laughter.
"Is it funny?" Xie Tian was so worried that he was speechless when he saw the three of them acting like that.
"Young man, don't you think it's a very happy thing to have those perverts complain because of you?"
The three of them were very excited. In the past, they were only afraid of the death camps, let alone the legendary eighth camp. But now, someone from the eighth camp was disgusted by Xie Tian and even complained. How could they not laugh?
Xie Tian did not feel happy. He did not think that the eighth camp did not have the strength to drive more Yin spirit beasts away. There must be another reason.
"But if I don't fight, when can I reach the Soul Breakthrough and enter the Mana Realm?" Xie Tian sighed. After thinking hard for a long time, he led the pony out.
The pony had a hard time during this period. It yearned for a happy gallop, so it was cooped up in the barracks for two months. It was not until Wang Tao was sent to the Military Law Institute that Xie Tian dared to let it out.
Even so, the murderous aura of the trainee soldier made it fearful. Fortunately, Xie Tian had exchanged for some elixirs that could make the pony stronger. In less than half a month, the pony had grown to around seven feet tall. It was now equivalent to a Xiantian Realm Level Six or Seven Level Seven Ferocious Beast.
There was only one horse in the matriculation camp. Everyone knew that it belonged to the Scheming Demon. When they saw someone galloping on a horse from afar, everyone stepped aside with awe in their eyes.
"Looking at the direction the Demon is heading, it seems to be the Lang Barracks?"
"Hehe, when the green firewood meets the blazing fire of Xue Yan, it will exhaust itself and die!"
"Sigh, galloping on a horse and spoiling a beauty. This Xie Tian is living a good life …"
…
Xue Yan had expected Xie Tian's arrival, but Xie Tian's first sentence surprised her.
"Other than killing Yin spirit beasts, is there any other way to get military merits?"
Xue Yan was stunned and asked, "Have you received a warning to not fight?"
"You know about this?" Xie Tian was a little surprised.
"Why do you think I didn't stop you?" Blood Swallow smiled. "The number of Yin Soul Beasts on the front line is fixed. If it falls below a certain number, something big might happen."
Xie Tian frowned and asked, "What's the mystery behind it?"
"Those Yin Soul Beasts were chased out of the Chuchu Sea by the soldiers of the eight battalions." Xue Yan didn't beat around the bush and explained, "Aside from training us, we can also use this to control the number of Yin Soul Beasts."
Xie Tian was confused. "That doesn't make sense. If they were worried about losing control, wouldn't it be better to kill as many Yin Soul Beasts as possible?"
"You've been in the death camp for more than three months, how come you still don't know anything?"
Xue Yan pointed to the north and said helplessly, "These Yin Soul Beasts are not living creatures, but the Yin Soul Demons who are entrenched in the Tian Tuo Strait. They are summoned by special means. If we don't kill them, they will become a disaster. But if we kill too many, the Yin Soul Demons will mistakenly think that a war is about to break out."
Xie Tian understood. If too many Yin Soul Beasts died, the Yin Soul Demons would be vigilant, and the vigilance of the Yin Soul Demons would cause the Jin Dynasty to be vigilant. If this continued, a war would eventually break out.
But he still had some doubts.
"What is a Yin Soul Demon?"
Xue Yan thought for a moment and said simply, "They are equivalent to a True Energy Realm cultivator, but they are more difficult to deal with. Even if the soldiers of the nine battalions encountered a Yin Soul Demon, it would be quite difficult."
Xie Tian nodded and asked the biggest doubt in his mind, "If I risk my life for a day, I can kill at most 20,000 Yin Soul Beasts. If I'm not wrong, this number is not enough to affect the overall situation, right?"
What do you mean kill at most 20,000 Yin Soul Beasts? I can't even kill them for ten days!
"That's because those perverts of the eight battalions are afraid of trouble." Xue Yan rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "If they want to drive the Yin Soul Beasts away, they must fight with the Yin Soul Demon to lure the Yin Soul Beasts out. The more you kill, the more tired they will be."
"Alright." Xie Tian was completely speechless and changed the topic, "Is there any other way to obtain military merits?"
Seeing that Xie Tian was still unwilling to give up, Xue Yan sighed and said, "If you are in the First Battalion, you have many ways to obtain military merits, such as alchemy, drawing talismans, etc. But in the Second Battalion, unless you can become the leader of a large force, you can only hunt Yin Soul Beasts."
Xie Tian frowned deeply. With his current strength, going to the First Battalion was simply courting death. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he looked at Xue Yan and asked seriously, "If I can't fight, will killing Yin Soul Beasts count as military merits?"
"Should, should …" Xue Yan's heart jumped, "You, what do you want to do?"
"Nothing, thank you for your advice. I'll have to trouble you to take care of Boss Jia and the others for the next few days."
Suppressing his joy, Xie Tian urged his horse and left.
Xue Yan gradually had a bad premonition, but she could not guess what Xie Tian was planning.
"What kind of earth-shattering thing are you going to do now?"
That night, Xie Tian quietly left the Second Battalion and took out the Soaring Wings that he had exchanged for with 50,000 military merits. He staggered towards the frontline.
Four hours later, Xie Tian had barely grasped the technique of using the Soaring Wings. At this time, he was still thousands of miles away from the frontline.
"That giant ship's speed is really terrifying, but Tie Xiu's speed is even faster than the giant ship when she's using her full strength …"
Tie Xiu's cultivation was only at the Transcendence Realm Perfected. Xie Tian once thought that he would be able to surpass her in no time, but after flying like this, the huge gap between them became apparent.
If the two of them were to fight, their speed alone was enough to make Xie Tian despair, not to mention their combat power.
"I only know how to fight hand-to-hand, but I can't even touch the hem of their clothes …" Once again feeling the terror of the 9th Battalion's official soldiers, Xie Tian felt even more pressure. He murmured, "I wonder when a body cultivator can fly."
From the matriculation camp to the frontline, Xie Tian took four times the usual time to arrive. He did not have time to rest and continued to fly deeper into the frontline, but his speed had slowed down.
"That should be the Heaven Expansion Sea, right?"
Xie Tian felt a little uneasy. The black sea was like the entrance to hell. The closer he got, the more terrifying it was.
"For the sake of military merits, I'll give it my all!"
After flying for more than two hours, the sky gradually brightened. Xie Tian finally saw the coastline where black and white intersected.
The black was the sea, and the white was the shore.
After landing, Xie Tian used his Evil Kill with all his might. Unfortunately, he did not find a single Spirit Beast.
"Strange, could it be that every time before a battle, the 8th Battalion will drive the Spirit Beasts ashore?"
Xie Tian was a little hesitant. Just by approaching the black sea, his Evil Kill had already reached a moderate level, which showed how terrifying the black sea was.
However, he only hesitated for a moment before controlling the Soaring Wings again and carefully flying towards the black sea.
Xie Tian did not know that the black sea he was talking about was not big. It was just the intersection of the Huai Sea and Huan Sea. Rather than calling it a sea, it would be better to call it a huge trench that spanned hundreds of thousands of miles and was millions of miles long.
"Halt!"
A sudden shout scared Xie Tian so much that he immediately fell from the sky and landed on a small island with a radius of several hundred miles. Before he could get up, a white light suddenly appeared, emitting a cold killing intent that was so piercing that Xie Tian could barely open his eyes.
"Eh, a reserve soldier?"
Sensing Xie Tian's military badge, the white light finally retracted its killing intent and revealed its true appearance. Xie Tian hurriedly got up and looked at the person in front of him in fear. He felt like his eyes were going to pop out of their sockets.
"You're a reserve soldier of the death camp. Why are you here?!"
Xie Tian quickly cupped his fists and bowed. "Xie Tian of the matriculation camp greets you, my lord. I'm here to hunt for military merits."
"Ah, the Hunting Army … hmph!" The person was about to sneer when he suddenly stared at Xie Tian. "What did you say your name was?"
"My lord, my name is Xie Tian …"
"Damn it, it's really you, you bastard!"
