Zhou Yang frowned and said, "General Xiao, this doesn't seem right. I even killed a yellow-helmet warrior."
"Is that so?" Xiao Lin frowned, obviously not seeing it. He turned back to look at the military inspector, who smiled and said, "General Xiao, the yellow-helmet warrior that Zhou Yang mentioned was actually killed by Young Master He Yunfeng. Zhou Yang only helped. At most, he will get a first-class merit."
"Help …"
Zhou Yang stepped forward and looked at the military inspector. Many people had seen him kill that person with one punch, but this military inspector said that it was He Yunfeng who killed him.
"That's right. Why? Are you still doubting me? "the military inspector said coldly.
Zhou Yang's expression was cold. He looked at He Yunfeng and saw that He Yunfeng was smiling coldly like the military inspector. Only then did he realize that these two were in cahoots.
"Brother Yang, now is not the time to argue with them. Bear with it for now," Guo Dazhuang whispered in Zhou Yang's ear.
"In that case, let's do it this way." Zhou Yang nodded and closed his eyes. This was the first battle on Turtle Back Mountain. It was indeed not the right time to fall out with the military inspector.
"Alright, since everyone has no interest in the merit, let's set up camp again to defend Turtle Back Mountain. General Wan will send someone to replace us in seven days." After Xiao Lin finished speaking, he went off to observe the terrain.
In seven days, the Nanman Kingdom would definitely come to fight for Turtle Back Mountain. After all, this was the highest point. Both sides would fight for it.
This meant that today's battle was just the beginning. There were still many more merit to be gained.
"Ten first-class merits are only counted as one second-class merit. Ten second-class merits are counted as one third-class merit. How long will it take to get a fifth-class merit …" Guo Dazhuang complained as he ate roast duck in the barracks.
"I just heard that as long as we can defend for seven days, each of us will get a third-class merit," Xiong Kun, who was also in the barracks, said.
Zhou Yang nodded, "In the past, at least a quarter of the Son of Martial Warrior test succeeded. It won't be that difficult. It's just that the danger this time is too high. New Star lost five people in this battle."
"That's because they were too arrogant. If they did not look down on the Dazzling Golden Ball, they would not have died."
Xiong Ziyi said as she walked into the barracks. Then, she extended her fist towards Zhou Yang. "Zhou Yang, from now on, you are my friend."
Zhou Yang touched Xiong Ziyi's hand. He liked Xiong Ziyi, who was valiant and had a masculine temperament. However, this woman had one thing in common with other proud women.
Too arrogant or too conceited.
"By the way, this place is very close to Soaring Eagle Ridge, which is guarded by the Bloodthirst Group. Why isn't the Bloodthirst Group guarding it, but someone else from the Nanman Kingdom?" Zhou Yang was puzzled.
"That's because the Bloodthirst Gang has offended too many people. They're always staying together. How can a small mountain like Turtle Back Mountain accommodate thousands of them? Moreover, not all of them are warriors from the Barbarian Kingdom. The Barbarian Kingdom doesn't trust them and doesn't dare to let them get too close to Border City, afraid that they'll change sides at the last moment," Xiong Kun said with a smile.
Zhou Yang nodded. He began to plan how to kill that lecher, Zhao Kui.
"Brother, I want to take a look at the Eagle Ridge tonight …"
Xiong Ziyi suddenly said.
"No, the Eagle Ridge is too dangerous. You absolutely cannot go there," Xiong Kun berated.
"But that lecher, Zhao Kui …"
"Don't say anymore. Someone will naturally kill Zhao Kui. Didn't that Liu Xing accept a bounty mission?"
Liu Xing!
Xiong Ziyi fell silent, but the hatred in her eyes was still intense. Zhou Yang guessed that Xiong Ziyi did not just want to get rid of evil. She probably also had a grudge against Zhao Kui.
Night came quietly, and the battlefield became extremely quiet. It was desolate at the foot of Turtle Back Mountain. There was only a towering stone peak in the west as far as the eye could see. That was the Eagle Ridge.
Zhou Yang stood at the highest point of the mountain, thinking about the battle during the day.
During the day, his Ferocious Tiger Fist had exploded with the power of lava. This was something he had not expected.
He guessed that it was because he had broken through to the second level of the Martian realm and had mastered the manifestation of vital energy.
The power of lava was extremely lethal, but it was a pity that he could only use it a little now. If there was a day when his power of lava could erupt like flames, that would be when he would truly become powerful.
The next day was still peaceful. The Nanman Kingdom only launched an attack at midnight. However, under the command of General Xiao, Turtle Back Mountain could be said to be impregnable. Not only did the new stars defeat the Nanman Kingdom's team, but they also obtained many military merits.
However, the battlefield was cruel. Another person from the new stars died.
In the next few days, there would be one or two battles almost every day. At first, the new stars were very excited. After all, they could obtain military merits. However, as more and more people died, and the battles became more frequent, they finally began to feel afraid.
Unfortunately, the war would not stop just because someone was afraid. On the sixth day, an elite team of 300 from the Nanman Kingdom attacked Turtle Back Mountain. In this battle, the new stars had lost nine people. Including the previous deaths, the number had reached 18.
This number finally made Xiao Lin take action. The new stars were the future of the Dragonwu Country. Naturally, Xiao Lin could not watch everyone die. After all, this was just an assessment. They did not really have to risk their lives!
The Nanman Kingdom did not expect that there would be a Level Nine Mercury Realm expert on Turtle Back Mountain. They quickly retreated.
That night, there was no more laughter on Turtle Back Mountain. Everyone hung their heads, looking very pathetic.
"General, there is a team of 400 people 15 kilometers ahead. Judging from the flag, they should be from the Bloodthirst Group." A black-armored warrior came to Xiao Lin and reported. Xiao Lin's expression tensed up. He quickly released a signal and then ordered everyone to retreat. However, it was too late.
A team of 100 people riding on black leopards charged out of the night. The new stars who had just retreated were stopped.
"Not good. It's the Nanman Kingdom's Black Leopard Battalion. Everyone, split up and escape. Gather at the border city." Xiao Lin shouted and led a group of black-armored warriors toward the Black Leopard Battalion.
To Xiao Lin, the current situation had exceeded the scope of the assessment. He had to make sure all the new stars could retreat safely.
Under the night sky, all the new stars fled in all directions. They did not have any intention of fighting. Only two people stayed.
Zhou Yang and Xiong Ziyi.
Although the two of them were not in the same place, they were heading in the same direction. They were both rushing toward the Bloodthirst Group.
Naturally, Zhou Yang did not notice Xiong Ziyi. His goal was to find a chance to kill Third Regiment Commander Zhao Kui. If there was no chance, he would retreat.

It took Zhou Yang less than an hour to cover the 15 kilometers. By then, the Bloodthirst Group had already stopped. They did not seem to be in a hurry.
Under the night sky, a bare-chested man sat on the back of a wolf and looked around. Not long after, a martial artist hurried over.
"Third Regiment Commander, you were right. The defending troops on Turtle Back Mountain are indeed the new stars of the Dragonwu Country. We managed to escape and are now being chased by the Black Leopard Battalion," the warrior said while kowtowing.
