Chapter 23 Departure Time flies, and a month has passed. The selection of Bauhinia Army squad leaders has finally reached the final stage. The later it gets, the fewer people will challenge. After all, those who want to challenge have already made their moves, and there are very few people who wait until later. By the last few days, the final selection of the fifty team leaders was almost a sure thing. On the last day, not a single one of the fifty defenders encountered a challenge, and there were far fewer Bauhinia Army soldiers watching the battle. Entrusted by Angela, Surya was responsible for presiding over the last day of the selection. He looked at the purple crescent moon in the sky. "The time is up, the selection is over. From today on, the fifty of you will be the new team leaders of the Bauhinia Army." Suriya said. "Great!" All fifty defenders smiled with satisfaction. "whoosh"
At this moment, a black stream of light came rapidly from a distance and landed in front of Suriya and many other seven-star demons. The light dispersed, revealing a handsome young man in purple robe. "Jeg, you little bastard, you still want to challenge me?" Suriya couldn't help but curse when he saw Jegg. The other seven-star demons behind him all looked at each other in confusion. "Haha, Jaeger, you've already challenged all fifty of us, and you want another one?" A new team leader laughed heartily. "Jeg, the selection is over. It's useless even if you win. Don't give up." Another team leader shook his head helplessly. When Jager heard what everyone said, a hint of embarrassment appeared on his face. This month, his reputation has grown because he indiscriminately challenged six-star demon masters. Now the entire Bauhinia Army headquarters knows that there is a challenge maniac named Jager. "Ahem!" Jager coughed twice, "Captains and squad leaders, I'm not here to compete for the position of squad leader." "Then what are you doing here?" Suriya was stunned. Jager immediately said, "Captain Surya, I want to challenge you!" During this month, he has copied the profound insights of the laws of most of the six-star demons in the headquarters, and no longer needs to challenge six-star demons. He began to turn his attention to the captains at the headquarters. The captains are all powerful seven-star demons. If you can copy their profound understanding of the laws, becoming a seven-star demon will be just around the corner. He specifically chose the time when the selection war was over. After the selection war was over, Surya and others would not have to serve as witnesses, so there would definitely be time. "You kid!" Suriya seemed to be so angry that he laughed, and his usually cold expression changed. The seven-star demons behind him couldn't stop laughing. Suriya said: "According to the rules of the army, ordinary soldiers can challenge squad leaders, and squad leaders can challenge captains. It's too early for you to challenge us. Wait until you become a squad leader, and then I will accept your challenge."
"If you can't challenge me, then sparring is fine," said Jager. Upon hearing this, the seven-star demons smiled and shook their heads, and some of them turned into streams of light and left the spot. Suriya said calmly: "Boy, the captains are at least seven-star demons, and some are even close to Hell Shura. What can we gain by sparring with you? Come to us when you become a captain." After saying this, Surya also flew towards the castle where he lived. "Alas." Jaeger could only watch the captains fly away and sigh helplessly. After the captains left, the new team leaders also left one after another. "Jeg, don't aim too high. Practice hard to improve your strength first." A black-haired woman walked towards Jaeger. “Debra.” Jager recognized the woman, as she was the one he challenged for the first time. Debra successfully defended her title and was promoted to team captain. "Jeg, I haven't told you yet, from today on, you are my team member. I am the captain of the ninth team of Menglan City." Debra said with a smile. "what!" Jager quickly straightened his face and said, "Captain Debra." Debra waved her hand and said, "Don't be too reserved. Go back and prepare. We will set off for Menglan City in a month." The Bauhinia Army has a rule that newly formed teams must leave the Crescent Moon Mountains and head to their respective bases within three months at the latest. "Yes." "Okay, I'm leaving first." Debra disappeared in a streak of light. Jeger did not stay long and left Bauhinia Valley. He had just returned to the castle where he lived when he saw Talib. "Jeg, you're back. The team captain selection is over, right? Who is your captain?" Talib asked curiously. "It's Debra." "It's her!" In these days, the reputation of the fifty defenders had spread throughout the headquarters, and Talib naturally knew Debra. "Talib, I will leave for Menglan City in a month, we will have a chance to meet again." said Jeger. "One month later? So urgent? That's right. The team leader selection is over today. The legion has a rule that you can't stay for long." Talib became a little depressed, but soon recovered: "It's okay, wait until you break through, then come back to challenge the captain." According to the regulations of the Bauhinia Army, whether it is an ordinary soldier challenging a squad leader, or a squad leader challenging a battalion leader, they must apply to the headquarters. "Of course I'll be back, and it won't take too long," Jager said confidently. "Haha, okay, let's compete to see who becomes the team leader first."
"Just admit defeat, it must be me." "You boy!" The two were chatting and laughing when they suddenly saw a tall and thin young man walking towards them. "Arik, why are you here?" Jaeger looked at the tall and thin young man. The tall and thin young man is named Arik, an ordinary upper god soldier. His strength is not very strong, but he is very good at refining Death Puppet. Jaeger once visited him and wanted to buy the refining method of Death Puppet, but the other party refused to see him. When Eric saw Jaeger, a smile immediately appeared on his face. "Jeg, I brought this especially for you." Eric handed over an ownerless space ring. Jeger took it curiously, dripped blood on it to recognize its owner, and used his spiritual sense to investigate. He found some magic scrolls inside, which contained detailed methods of refining a Death Puppet. "What is this?" Jaeger looked at Arik, not understanding what the other party meant. Arik smiled and said, "Haven't you been asking for the method to make the Death Puppet? I'll give it to you." "Send it to me?" Jagger was stunned, but he quickly figured out the trick. Arik did this to improve relations with him. During this month, he continued to challenge six-star demons. Although he never won once, he also demonstrated his strength as a five-star demon. The five-star demons are already among the stronger ones among the ordinary soldiers of the Bauhinia Army, and they may have the opportunity to break through and become team leaders in the future. Originally, Jaeger was only a middle-level god, and Arik would not pay any attention to him even if he begged him kindly. But now he is a five-star demon, and Arik is afraid that he will bear a grudge against him, so he took the initiative to please him. "Then I'll be welcome." said Jaeger. Upon hearing this, Arik's smile widened, because if Jeger was willing to accept it, it meant he was willing to reveal everything that had happened before. "Thank you, Jaeger. You can always come to me if you need anything in the future." Arik bowed. "You're welcome." After the two chatted for a while, Arik said goodbye and left. In the following days, those soldiers who originally did not want to sell the treasure refining method to Jaeger changed their minds one after another and were willing to sell it. In less than a month, Jaeger had already mastered the methods of refining various items such as the Death Puppet, Metal Life, God-Slaying Arrow, etc., and informed the Joyce family through the god's clone in Blue Maple City. "Strength is indeed the root of everything." Jager sighed. (End of this chapter)
