The Divine Nine-Dragon Cauldron

Chapter 2486 2,377, Military Confrontation

This was because the military preparation hall was the place where the Tai Yi sect fought with the outer sects for territory all year round.

Once there was a change at the border, the entire military preparation hall would usually move out together.

And once they moved out, it would be a life-and-death battle.

Hence, the death rate of the military preparation hall was extremely high.

In addition, in the past hundred years, the end of the epoch was near, and the various sects and sects increased the competition for resources, resulting in frequent wars.

The members of the military preparation hall, no matter how valiant and good at fighting, would definitely not live past three years.

You might be able to survive this war, but what about the next one? What about the next one?

There would always be accidents, and once an accident happened, it would be death.

The military preparation hall could be said to be the most important place in the Tai Yi sect, but it was the place that no one wanted to go to.

Usually, the people who were arranged to go in, other than the hall head and Deputy Hall Head, were the ordinary members that the sect did not think highly of.

No one could understand why Su Yu, who had made such a great contribution, would arrange for him to be sent to the military preparation hall where he would be sent to his death.

“Brother Su, don’t be too discouraged. I think the head steward is making such arrangements to convince the public.”Yu Xiang Wan looked at the token of a five-star disciple in Su Yu’s hand. “It’s unprecedented for a slave to become a five-star disciple. In order to prevent the members of the sect from criticizing you too much, he arranged for you to be sent to the military preparation hall for training.”

“Perhaps, after a period of time, the head steward will transfer you to another hall.”Yu Xiang Wan avoided looking at him.

Su Yu held the token and said, “Brother Yu, you and I are both sensible people. Why do you have to lie to yourself?”

In the eyes of the head steward, Su Yu’s life was like an ant that could be easily crushed.

Why would he still think about Su Yu and transfer him out in the future?

He just felt that giving Su Yu the status of a five-star disciple was too shocking, so he conveniently threw him into the military preparation hall.

He had no intention of continuing to observe him.

Yu Xiang Wan sighed bitterly. “Alright, as long as brother Su understands, there’s no need to worry too much. As far as I know, a year ago, the Tai Yi sect just had a war with a sect. There shouldn’t be another war in the near future.”

Su Yu nodded his head slightly. “Take care of yourself. You’ve just become a disciple from a slave, so you’ll definitely be troubled.”

“You Too!”

The two of them looked at each other and left.

Su Yu held the token in his hand and came to the military preparation hall to report.

The area where the military preparation hall was located was empty because most of the people were cultivating and practicing outside the main gate, ready for war at any time.

Only a few people in charge of internal affairs were still there.

“I am Su Yu, a new member,”Su Yu reported.

The person in charge took Su Yu’s token expressionlessly and carved the word “Military”on it.

At the same time, he gave Su Yu ten time crystals. “Your salary for this month.”

The normal disciples of the hall could only get three a month.

However, the military preparation hall gave them special treatment. There were a total of ten crystals.

This could be considered as an extra consideration for the disciples of the military preparation hall.

“In addition, immediately head to a place thirty thousand miles north of the city to participate in the training.”

Su Yu nodded and immediately rushed over with the token in his hand.

From Afar, he could see a black mass of warriors in black armor standing together in a neat formation, listening to the lecture of a golden-armored expert on the stage.

“After a year of training, you have already acquired the basic qualities of a qualified warrior,”the golden-armored warrior said. “In the following time, we will have a group competition. The first-place group will receive a level-1 upgrade, the second-place group will receive a thousand time crystals, and the third-place group will receive a hundred time crystals!”

It was extremely difficult for the other disciples to raise their level.

Usually, they would only have a chance to do so once every ten years.

However, the military preparation hall could raise their level in a normal match!

Furthermore, the other rewards were very generous, easily reaching the thousand time crystal level!

Normal disciples would need thirty years to accumulate so many time crystals.

However, thinking about it carefully, they were all people who were about to die. So what if the rewards were generous? In the end, they would still die on the battlefield.

Su Yu swept away the haze in his heart, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

To become a hall master of the Tai Yi sect step by step, it would take at least several decades, right?

However, in the military preparation hall, perhaps time could be greatly shortened.

He suddenly realized that perhaps the most suitable person for him in the Tai Yi sect was precisely the military preparation hall.

The golden-armored powerhouses were quickly divided into groups of 100 according to the number of people.

Each group had three people.

“The groups have been assigned. Let’s Go!”The golden-armored powerhouse gave the order.

However, a shout suddenly came from one of the groups, “Reporting to Hall Master Ruan, the eight-star disciple, Ma Xiaoguang, is not here! There are only two people in our group!”

The golden-armored powerhouse’s eyes were as sharp as lightning, and his eyes were cold as he shouted, “Where is Ma Xiaoguang?”

His voice shook the sky, and it also shook the blood and Qi of the soldiers present.

“Reporting to Hall Master Ruan, Ma Xiaoguang went out ten days ago and didn’t come back.”A purple-armored expert at the level of Vice Hall master beside him replied with evasive eyes.

The people of the military preparation hall were never allowed to go out as they pleased.

Furthermore, he hadn’t returned for ten days.

There was only one reason -- he had defected!

The golden-armored expert’s eyes were filled with killing intent. “Traitor!”

Shua --

An emerald-colored ledger appeared in his palm. On it were the names of every soldier.

He found Ma Xiaoguang’s location and used a brush to sketch on it.

An invisible force rushed out from the ledger and disappeared into the horizon.

Somewhere, a ragged-looking youth suddenly let out a muffled groan. His body exploded from the inside out.

On the stage.

The golden-armored expert indifferently took back the account book and said coldly, “Betraying the Tai Yi sect, no matter how great your previous achievements are, once you betray, you will only end up dead. You will not be tolerated!”

Then, he looked at the group that was one person short.

Just as he was about to make a decision, Su Yu quickly landed and cupped his hands, “The new disciple of the military preparation hall, Su Yu, has come to report.”

Su Yu held the five-star disciple token in his hand and stepped forward. He spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.

The golden-armored expert glanced at his token and nodded. “You’ve come at the right time! You will head to Group 90. From today onwards, you will be a member of that group.”

“Yes! Hall Master!”Su Yu came to group 90.

There were only two members left in the group. One of them was a woman from the Hundred Flowers clan. She was covered in the fragrance of flowers and had a cold and arrogant expression.

The Hundred Flowers clan was a second-rate race. Their status was very respected and they were good at using the flower path.

The other one was an unruly and unruly young Daoist. He carried a clear sky sword on his back and stood there with his legs out of place. His expression was indifferent and he seemed to be a thousand miles away from others.

Su Yu’s arrival only made the two of them take a glance at him before they both frowned.

It was obvious that they looked down on Su Yu.

“Human?”The woman from the Hundred Flowers clan did not hide her disgust at all. She distanced herself from him as if Su Yu, a human from a ninth-rate race, would pollute him.

The young Daoist closed his eyes proudly and said indifferently, “Only five stars? It’s better not to come.”

Su Yu was secretly amused. The cultivation of the two of them was not bad. Both of them were at the late stage of the great venerate realm. The level of their disciples was also very high. They were both seven-star disciples.

However, if they were to fight to the death, they would probably not be able to last more than one and a half moves in Su Yu’s hands.

“Both of you, I am Su Yu. From now on, I will be a member of the same group. Please take care of each other.”Su Yu smiled faintly.

The Hundred Flowers clan glanced at him coldly. “If you want us to take care of you, first let us see your ability!”

The Daoist youth nodded his head.

Wu --

Just at this moment, a loud horn sounded. It was the start of the competition.

Su Yu shrugged. He didn’t have to show them his abilities.

But he had to get first place!

Today’s chapter would be followed by five more chapters on December 2nd.
