Hearing Shi Lei’s words, all the young warriors couldn’t help but swallow.
Surely if they missed out, they would regret it imnsely; it must be of considerable importance.
Therefore, at this mont, no one dared to even breathe loudly as they all pricked up their ears to listen to Shi Lei.
"I’m sure you all know that recently the proliferation of Dream Pills have caused imnse trouble for the Sacred Dynasty. Lin Shuai received a sacred decree to co to Baiyun Province to eliminate the Dream Pills and ban their trade."
Shi Lei’s voice wasn’t loud, but it was full of vigor, and very clear to everyone’s ears.
"As disciples of Hidden Dragon Camp, you are a group of individuals Lin Shuai greatly anticipates success from. At this crucial mont, shouldn’t you share Lin Shuai’s concerns and relieve him of his troubles?"
"We should!"
The voices from below were very unified.
"Good! Lin Shuai will definitely be very pleased if you have this intention," said Shi Lei with a nod, continuing, "But rest assured, this mission will not leave you empty-handed!"
Below, the crowd couldn’t help but swallow again, anticipating what Shi Lei would say next.
"Lin Shuai is concerned about the country and its people, determined to destroy the Dream Pills, making him a thorn in many people’s eyes. He once said, ’After I die, there must be soone to carry on my cause.’"
Getting to this point, Shi Lei let out a sigh and said, "Although I and everyone present certainly do not wish for Lin Shuai to fall to treacherous hands, there are unforeseen changes in the heavens, and unpredictable fortunes and misfortunes in life. Considering his possible death, Lin Shuai has decided to break with tradition and accept personal disciples!"
Whir!
Suddenly, the atmosphere beca explosive.
Everyone was very excited, including General Jiu Yue, who was sitting there in silence.
In the past, Lin Shuai was reluctant to take disciples, saying he feared leading them astray, but in truth, it was because he didn’t have ti to ntor them.
But circumstances can overpower intentions. Lately, Lin Shuai had faced multiple assassination attempts. Although he survived them all, no one could guarantee what the future held.
So, without heirs, disciples have beco the successors of his cause.
The Twelve Tiger Guards too longed to beco Lin Shuai’s disciples, which was why General Jiu Yue was excited.
"This ti, Lin Shuai will take on three personal disciples. And for the others, even if you cannot beco his personal disciples, as long as the mission is well completed, there is definitely a chance to be personally ntored by him," Shi Lei continued.
"So you must strive hard. Of course, I must also strive, for in Baiyun Province, becoming Lin Shuai’s personal disciple is almost everyone’s dream," Shi Lei said further.
That wasn’t far from the truth, as the two strongest individuals in Baiyun Province were Baiyun Governor Wan 犇 and Border Guarding General Lin Ze.
However, Lin Ze clearly had a better reputation, so most people preferred to beco Lin Ze’s disciple.
As for the people in Hidden Dragon Camp, there was no need to say more. Apart from a few who were spies planted by Wan 犇, the rest joined because of Lin Ze.
Ling Xiao also showed a trace of astonishnt on his face.
Although he once had the chance to learn from Lin Ze at his side, it was after all not as a disciple, and certainly wouldn’t have access to the true teachings.
But now it was different. Having the chance to beco Lin Ze’s personal disciple ant the opportunity to learn the true Martial Arts from Lin Ze.
For a martial artist who dread of entering the Transcendent Realm, being guided by a master like Lin Ze would undoubtedly be all beneficial and no harmful.
"Commander Shi, please just tell us what the mission is," soone spoke up.
So in the audience could hardly contain their excitent.
"Let General Jiu Yue personally announce this one."
Shi Lei looked at Jiu Yue, who was sitting there, and said with a smile.
Jiu Yue nodded and said to everyone below the stage, "The mission naturally relates to the destruction of the Dream Pills!"
A look of anticipation appeared on everyone’s faces.
"In Baiyun Capital, there are many from the alien races, so stubborn Dream Pill rchants are backed by outside forces. If Lin Shuai were to take action personally, he would inevitably have to confront the Governor and end up in a hostile situation with the foreign powers."
All of a sudden, Jiu Yue laughed, "This is Lin Shuai’s predicant, but it is your opportunity. After discussion, Lin Shuai has decided to assign the task of eradicating these Dream Pill rchants to you, the Twelve Tiger Guards and the mbers of Hidden Dragon Camp! But rember, this ti you go out, each of you only represents yourselves. If you are captured, you also represent only yourselves!"
Everyone understood what he ant. The Twelve Tiger Guards and Hidden Dragon Camp mbers were chosen mainly because they were rarely seen in public, and not many people knew them. With a little disguise, they could sever ties with the Town General’s Mansion.
Even if they were truly captured, the Hidden Dragon Camp and the Twelve Tiger Guards had no official designation, so as long as the Town General’s Mansion denied involvent, the enemy would have no recourse and no evidence.
As for the spies within the Hidden Dragon Camp.
Lin Ze, of course, had long prepared a cage for them to enter. This mission was a test of both strength and loyalty.
Unless these spies chose to do nothing, not a single one would think of escaping, for they might very well be uprooted entirely.
"Is there a ti limit?"
Murong Shao asked.
In fact, aside from so newcors, virtually everyone who had stayed in Hidden Dragon Camp for over a month had participated in real combat, so they were not afraid of such missions.
"Three months!"
General Jiu Yue said indifferently, "During these three months, you may act freely, whether by assassination or by force, the choice is yours. The original teams will be disrupted, and you will form new teams that you trust more to carry out the mission. After all, your lives are at stake."
"Additionally, aside from potentially receiving personal guidance from Lin Shuai or becoming his personal disciple, you will also earn military rits for killing Dream Pill rchants or destroying Dream Pills!"
"You all know what military rits are. In our army, military rits can not only get you promoted and make you wealthy but can also help you exchange for various items—silver, gold, Gang Qi Pills, Spirit Stones, top-tier Martial Arts, Transcendent Martial Arts fragnts, and even quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts!"
Quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts!
Ling Xiao felt a stir in his heart upon hearing this.
Although Transcendent Martial Arts fragnts were derived from genuine Transcendent Martial Arts, because they were fragnts, it was difficult to gain much from them, and even if one did gain sothing, it was not easy to apply it imdiately to combat.
Quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts were different. They were above top-notch Martial Arts, and though not genuine Transcendent Martial Arts, they were second only to them and retained so of their Mystic Arts and Shadows.
By learning Quasi-Transcendent Martial Arts, one could not only gain more formidable combat power but also lay a solid foundation for future comprehension of Transcendent Martial Arts.
"General, can you give us specific details on how military rits are earned?" soone from the audience asked.
"It’s simple," General Jiu Yue continued, "most Dream Pill rchants are from the Outer Clan Martial Artists, and there are also those from the Human Race who have defected to the alien races. We don’t kill ordinary people, we just target Martial Artists."
"Killing a Martial Artist with Martial Veins under the Third Layer earns you 1 point of military rit," General Jiu Yue went on.
"Killing a Martial Artist at the Martial Vein Quadruple Layer gets you 2 points of military rit."
"Three points for Fifth Layer! Four points for Sixth Layer!"
"If any one of you can kill a Seventh Layer Martial Master of Martial Pulse, the reward is 10 points for early stage, 15 points for the interdiate stage, 20 points for the late stage, and 25 points for the pinnacle!"
