Chapter 123: Nobody's allowed to find a partner!
Rapidly breaking through realms can have significant side effects, such as the mismatch between one's own perceptions and the realm of enlightenment, aside from those granted by the sweet rain.
Simply put, although Zhong Ming had already reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, his mind was no different from that of an ordinary person, and he had never understood the mysteries of cultivating immortality.
They were wielding bricks and sticks when they started fighting; anyone who didn't know better would think it was a brawl between thugs.
Seeing Zhong Ming's current pathetic state, Matt and the second captain next door burst into laughter without any restraint.
"Cuihong, it's all thanks to your good health. You're all twisted up like a pretzel and still full of energy."
"You know what, he only yelled once. What a real man. He can really hold back. I remember Matt, you yelled twice back then."
"No, no, no, I shouted it three times, three times: 'Awesome!'"
Zhong Ming writhed in pain on the ground for a long time, then suddenly stretched out his hand and sat up stiffly like a zombie, his eyes glazed over as he looked blankly at his comrades around him.
"I've reached the sixth level of Qi Refining."
The two men immediately fell silent, their faces turning ashen as if they had swallowed a fly.
The enemy's success is certainly disheartening, but my brother's success is even more painful.
You should know that they will eventually have a competition, which will be conducted in a team-based assessment at the end of basic training.
Zhong Ming's continuous breakthroughs in realms were nothing short of a disaster.
Matt asked, "I remember when you first joined the army, you were only at the third level of Qi Refining?"
“No, no, no,” Yue Kaishan immediately stepped forward, “He was recruited into the team by my older cousin. He was only at the second level of Qi Refining when he took the new recruit qualification test.”
"Hiss~~" Everyone gasped in unison. This speed was like riding a flying shuttle. This person was definitely a genius.
Zhong Ming looked helpless. He had broken through to the third level of Qi Refining, which was considered his own strength. As for the rest... Thanks to the big shots for their gifts?
Xueyan stepped in to smooth things over and changed the subject.
"Come here, everyone. I just remembered there are some things I haven't taught you yet."
Eight people gathered around, and Xueyan gently pulled the Crimson-Eyed Fairy to her side. This girl carrying a large bow was even more taciturn than Chen Dahai.
After everyone sat down, Xueyan carefully considered her words before slowly speaking: "I must remind you first that in cultivation, primordial yang and primordial yin are extremely important. As long as you maintain them, your cultivation speed will be faster than others. Therefore, don't rush to find a Daoist partner or a romantic partner. Many cultivation techniques only allow for breaking the technique in the later stages. If you break the technique when your realm is still low, the consequences will be endless."
Several people looked at each other.
Is the instructor telling us... not to mess around with women?
"Sit properly, all of you. Since you find sitting uncomfortable, then get into a horse stance and listen to my instructions. Get into a horse stance now!"
Xueyan straightened the military discipline slightly before continuing to speak.
"In the wars to come, you will encounter many enemies, among which illusions and seductive arts are common attacks. To resist such attacks, your hearts must be as hard as steel. As cultivators, your primary goal is the pinnacle of the Great Dao, which is ascension! Other desires, including lust, are only hindering your progress."
Her gaze swept around the room, finally settling on Master Cuihong at the very edge.
"Did you understand? Qu Hong."
Matt immediately turned around, as if he had guessed something terrible.
Zhong Ming reacted very quickly, extremely quickly.
He immediately shouted, "Understood!" Then he turned to Yue Kaishan and yelled, "Women will only affect your punching speed, understand?"
Yue Kaishan was completely bewildered. He understood the principle, but what should he do next?
Pass it on, yes, pass it on.
So Yue Kaishan turned his head to look at Xuan Jing on his other side and said, "Women will only affect your speed of drawing talismans, understand?"
Xuan Jing understood immediately, turned to Chen Dahai, but didn't know what to say...
The archers don't need to do anything; they just need to aim and shoot.
"Um... Chen Dahai, women will only slow you down in driving your wheelchair! Understand?"
Chen Dahai: ? ? ?
.....
The last person to pass the message on said, with a weak voice, "Red Eyes, men will only slow you down when you draw your bow..."
Akame nodded.
(Yes, you're right.)
When everyone looked again, they saw that Xueyan had her hands on the shoulders of the red-eyed girl, practically locking her in a safe.
"You too, Akame. Be careful and protect yourself. A world where strength reigns supreme is dangerous, unless..."
Xueyan sighed. Since we've already come this far, let's just get to the point, even though it's a little embarrassing to talk about these things.
"Alright, there's one more thing. Have you all met the First General of the Sirius Army?"
"Yes, long live General Mu."
General Mu held an extraordinary position in everyone's hearts. Yuan Xuzi's strategy had worked. Although everyone was exhausted of spiritual energy, few were on the verge of death. The massive military merit points had successfully drawn the cultivators of Jishui Mountain to their side.
"Now that you know, do you know how many armies there are in total?"
For ordinary people who attain enlightenment and cultivate immortality, the number of armies of cultivators is indeed a secret that is difficult to know.
"In the current war in the three southern states, there are a total of seven armies," Xueyan said, her face full of pride. "They are known as the Seven Great Wolf Armies."
Zhong Ming silently wondered to himself, 'What the heck? I almost read it as Seven Wolves... Army.'
“Each wolf army is led by a Nascent Soul stage cultivator. This leader will be rotated, but given our lifespan, it is difficult to encounter multiple rotations.”
Fight a few more battles, and if you gain enlightenment while fighting, go back to seclusion and cultivate to reach the Nascent Soul stage.
"Pingzhou in the east has the largest army, the Canglang Army. When they go to war, they are very powerful. Countless people form military formations to meet the enemy. They advance with overwhelming force, and it is as easy as drinking water to capture cities and fortresses. There are many fierce people among them... (With so many people, there are bound to be a few fierce ones...)"
This is why the other army in Pingzhou, the Shadow Wolf Army, is small in number, and each soldier is an elite among elites. They are either personally selected by high-ranking cultivators or chosen from the Azure Wolf Army. Most fight individually, while a small number operate in small teams, hiding behind enemy lines to assassinate the enemy.
The two large armies in Pingzhou, one attacking from the front and the other harassing the enemy's rear, advanced extremely quickly.
"In Bazhou to the west, their main force is the Tianlang Army, the second largest army in terms of numbers and strength. You could say they are mediocre, or you could say they are an all-around army. The other force is the Lone Wolf Army, which is also composed of elites, but its characteristic is that it moves in a legion, coming and going like the wind. Often, when the Tianlang Army is pressing in, and the enemy is about to meet them, the Lone Wolf Army will instantly penetrate hundreds of miles into the enemy territory, or block the enemy's follow-up support passes and key routes. Under the enemy's two-pronged attack, they will hold out until the Tianlang Army annihilates the enemy's main force, or they will strike at the heart of the enemy's capital and take the enemy's capital."
If the Shadow Wolf Army used countless tactical victories to achieve strategic victory, then the Lone Wolf Army was aiming directly for strategic victory.
"As for our Yunzhou..."
Xueyan looked at the new recruits and sighed. These short guys didn't seem to be very suitable for our Yunzhou's own army.
