Chapter 1841: A Different Kind of Assessment (Please Subscribe)_1

After the rank ceremony ended, Tang Wulin looked at the military insignia on his shoulder and reflected, "I never expected that we would be directly granted the rank of Junior Lieutenant. Looking back, it feels like a dream!"

Gu Yue nodded, "Yeah, it must have been because we almost killed Ba An during the assessment, which is why we exceptionally received the rank of Junior Lieutenant!"

But Tang Wulin seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed, "That's right, Gu Yue, I remember that general mentioned we would be assigned special duties as deputy staff officers. That place seems to be..."

Before he could finish, Gu Yue affirmed with certainty, "You're not wrong, Long Yuxue is the deputy director of the special duties office! Being assigned under her is probably no coincidence!"

From the moment Long Yuxue offered to lend money with only ten percent interest, she had already lost any resentment towards her!

Of course, that didn't mean she had positive feelings either!

Tang Wulin pursed his thin lips, muttering to himself, "I see. I just don't know what being a deputy staff officer actually entails! If it's just about strategizing in the background of the military, then it would be dull!"

In his heart, he still preferred to fight on the battlefield like a soldier!

At that moment, they happened to encounter the female lieutenant from the previous day, who seemed to already know they had completed the rank ceremony!

She said with a smile, "Congratulations, joining the Ferocious God Legion and becoming Junior Lieutenants right away is unprecedented!"

In the history of the Ferocious God Legion, even if new soldiers excelled in their assessment, they could only receive the highest rank of First-Class Soldier!

Tang Wulin responded respectfully, "Lieutenant, you flatter us. But do you know where Major Long is? We've been assigned to the special duties office, and now we're looking for her to inquire about some matters!"

Gu Yue nodded, confirming that it was indeed the case...

The female lieutenant looked at them in surprise, "Major Long? She's currently conducting an assessment with a new recruit, probably just starting!"

Yuxue had actually requested to have them all assigned to the special duties office?

I was unaware of this!

Hearing her explanation, Tang Wulin expressed doubt, "There's a new recruit joining the Ferocious God Legion?"

Gu Yue also seemed surprised, knowing full well that Long Yuxue had said it had been quite a while since a new recruit had joined the Ferocious God Legion!

Recollection flashed in the eyes of the female lieutenant, "Yes, the new recruit is quite handsome and distinguished. I was nearly captivated by just a glance!"

Tang Wulin thoughtfully said, "Handsome and distinguished?"

Upon hearing these words, the first image that came to his mind was that of Xu Sheng!

In his view, on the entire Continent, only he was worthy of such a description!

After shaking his head, he dismissed the thought. How could Teacher Xu possibly join the Ferocious God Legion?

Gu Yue indifferently proposed, "Perhaps he's a Soul Master from some major Clan/Family, but it's none of our concern!"

...

Meanwhile, Xu Sheng, following behind Long Yuxue and Jiang Qiyue, inquired, "Senior officers, may I know how the assessment will be carried out?"

Long Yuxue explained coldly, "Normally, the Ferocious God Legion's assessments use the Spirit Ascension Platform to simulate environments and test the all-around qualities of new soldiers!"

"However, this time, I don't plan to use the Spirit Ascension Platform but to test your abilities with actual soul beasts instead!"

If you're going to be so arrogant, you'd better have the skill to back it up!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Qiyue frowned, "Yuxue, that doesn't sound like a good idea. Those soul beasts are much more dangerous than the ones in the Spirit Ascension Platform! Accidents are very likely to happen!"

She hadn't expected the former to think of using this method for the assessment!

He was just a new recruit; there was no need to target him like this!

And besides, such a handsome guy, if he were to disfigure his face or something, how tragic that would be!

Long Yuxue glanced at Jiang Qiyue and said to Xu Sheng, "It's up to you to decide, do you plan to battle soul beasts in reality or use the Spirit Ascension Platform? Of course, whichever you choose, you cannot use your Soul Power during the process!"

With a calm tone, Xu Sheng replied, "Let's go with what you previously said, officer, everything on the Spirit Ascension Platform is virtual, right?"

Hearing these words, Long Yuxue's expression eased a lot...

"Then let's go, to the underground training ground!"

Soon, the three of them arrived at the underground training ground established by the Ferocious God Legion!

The original intention of building this place was to use the enclosed soul beasts to train officers and soldiers in combat skills!

But as it evolved, it now resembled something like a combat arena!

At first glance, many officers and soldiers were battling to improve their combat experience!

Before long, one of the soldiers in charge here came over and said respectfully, "Major Long, are you planning to conduct battle training?"

Long Yuxue glanced at Xu Sheng and said, "No, we are here to assess this new recruit!"

The soldier blinked in surprise and asked, "If I may speak frankly, shouldn't a new recruit's assessment not take place here?"

Jiang Qiyue blinked her beautiful eyes, playfully patted Long Yuxue on the shoulder and said, "It's nothing, this major just wants to change the way the assessment is done, please go apply for the right to use the enclosed soul beasts!"

The soldier did not dare to say more, nodded and said, "Yes!", then turned and left!

Behind them, curiosity shone in Xu Sheng's eyes as he thought to himself, "Interesting... the Ferocious God Legion even keeps soul beasts? Seems like they have quite a background!"

There must at least be Hyper Douluo and Ultimate Douluo stationed here!

It wasn't long before the previously mentioned soldier came out and said respectfully, "Major Long, the application has been approved, do you need me to lead the way?"

Long Yuxue shook her head, "No need, we can take him there ourselves!"

Seeing this, the soldier saluted and then returned to his post!

Afterward, Long Yuxue and the other two continued down the path and soon came to the "prison" where soul beasts were confined!

There were not many soul beasts held here, but still quite a few dozen!

Most of them were thousand-year soul beasts, with only a handful of ten-thousand-year soul beasts!

Jiang Qiyue looked at Long Yuxue and asked, "Yuxue, with so many soul beasts, which one do you plan to release to test this handsome guy's strength?"

After some thought, she responded, "Probably a soul beast with a cultivation level of around four thousand years. If any accidents occur, we will immediately end the assessment!"

Since the enclosed soul beasts all wore restraints, there was basically no danger!

Then, she turned her gaze back toward Xu Sheng, "Do you have any objections?"

Xu Sheng replied with an unchanged expression, "No objections!"

Long Yuxue nodded slightly, "Good! Then get ready, I'm going to open the cage now! Oh yes, July, you should also fall back to a safe area! Don't interfere with the normal progress of the assessment!"
