Chapter 257: If I Had Known Earlier, I Would’ve Held Back A Little 1
Grott took a deep breath, and a green battle armor and a red battle axe appeared on his body.
The Tier 3 leader was a top-tier elite in the central defense area. He had his own Geno weapon, unlike the guards who only had standard weapons.
Grott roared in anger. Green patterns appeared on his body, and his aura rose sharply. The next moment, he stepped on the ground and rushed toward Lu Yuan.
The blood-red battle axe in his hand slashed at Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan’s white jade Spirit body began to circulate and a gentle white spirit light surged. He also used black steel strength.
He also stomped on the ground and charged forward.
The battle-ax and the heavy sword collided.
Clang!
A circular wave of air spread in all directions. Grott felt the huge power coming from the battle axe. His pupils shrank, and a trace of horror flashed in his eyes.
What the hell was this power?
How could a Tier 2 beginner overlord possess such frightening strength?
His body kept retreating, and the central gap opened. Lu Yuan rushed up and with a flash of sword light, his heavy sword was placed on Grott’s neck.
Grott looked at the heavy sword on his neck, and his pupils shrank as he froze on the spot.
He was silent for a moment. The corner of his mouth twitched, and his expression was a little bitter.
“I’ve lost,”
the entire square fell silent at once.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open and their faces were filled with shock. They stared at the two people in the ring and fell into a dead silence.
Only Mag and the others knew about Lu Yuan’s ranking on the school’s combat power List, so they were not surprised to know his strength.
Seeing the guard’s shocked expression, the few youths from the genius camp were in a better mood.
Zhu Zhengyang laughed,
“What a fuss. Junior Lu Yuan is ranked 25th on the combat power List. Although he’s only a Tier 2 overlord, his combat power is already on the level of a peak Tier 2 overlord.”
A rank three low-level leader’s combat strength is not much different from that of a rank two peak overlord. I can only say that junior Lu Yuan has improved again.
Mag shook his head with a sigh.
Yan Jing looked at Lu Yuan, her beautiful eyes flashing.
Junior Lu Yuan is really amazing. His talent is too strong. He has only entered the Land of Origin once, and his combat strength has improved again.
In the arena, green hair appeared with squinted eyes.
He looked at Lu Yuan with a hint of shock in his eyes and smiled.
“As expected of a little monster who can inscribe an overlord gene at rank 2. I’ve underestimated you before.”
Lu Yuan smiled. “Commander, did I pass the test?”
The green-haired man sized Lu Yuan up with narrowed eyes, then nodded slowly.
“You’ve passed. You can join the vanguard scout squad.”
Lu Yuan heaved a sigh of relief. He was still a little worried that the commander would not let him go to the scout camp.
The green-haired man looked away from Lu Yuan and turned to look at the guards around him. His eyes finally landed on Mag and the others, and he smiled.
“That’s all for your welcome party. Since the higher-ups have asked you to join our 257th Battalion, we will be comrades for a period of time. I’ve already arranged your positions. You can come and get your people.”
Lu Yuan, who was in the ring, saw a few guards in military uniform come up to Mag and the others and start talking to them.
Lu Yuan could see the slight change in their expressions. There were joy and worry. Obviously, some people were satisfied with the distribution of positions, while some were not too satisfied.
On the other hand, Grott came to Lu Yuan’s side and patted his hand with a smile.
“Let me introduce myself. I’m the captain of Team 22, 1st Division of the vanguard Scout Squad, Grott. You’ll be in our Team 22 from now on.
Lu Yuan’s eyes lit up and he said with a smile,
“Good day, Captain!”
“I’ll take you to see your teammates,” Groat said, nodding.
Lu Yuan followed Grott down the ring and walked to the left.
All the guards on the road looked at Lu Yuan as he walked past.
There were even people who smiled and greeted him.
“Lu Yuan! dD you want to join our garrison? The benefits can be discussed.”
Grott glared at the person who spoke. “Old man, get lost!”
Someone else laughed and teased, ”
“Lu Yuan, well done! Grott, that old thing, was beaten to a pulp by you.”
Grott’s mouth twitched, and he couldn’t help but curse.
Lu Yuan was a little embarrassed. Who knew that he was actually fighting his own captain?
If he had known earlier, he would have held back a little.
To be honest, Lu Yuan didn’t even use a mechanical overload.
After all, Lu Yuan had not been playing around during the past 20 days of cultivation in the Land of Origin.
He could absorb 600 Level 4 spirit crystals in an hour, and if he cultivated in the gravity room, he could absorb spiritual energy for about 12 hours a day, which was about 7200 Level 4 spirit crystals.
In 20 days, Lu Yuan had absorbed nearly 150000 level 4 spirit crystals.
His White Jade Spirit body had already reached 70%.
After fully activating the White Jade Spirit body, his strength had increased by a few times. He didn’t even need to use any mechanical weights, and his combat strength was already a little stronger than when he tested his combat strength.
He didn’t need to use any machinery to load it. In fact, he was already holding back.
Lu Yuan was also very helpless. His strength had increased a little too quickly.
Very quickly, Lu Yuan stopped with Grott.
Grott pointed at the four guards in military uniform and said,
“They’re also from team 22. Lu Yuan, let me introduce you. Tang Ji, assassin; Yang Qiu, elemental, Ding Wen, long-range attack, and Yang Qiu, elemental, long-range attack. Stacy is a healer, and both of them are peak 2nd rank leader-level warriors. We’ll be teammates from now on.”
