On a new day, Lin Xiao was still in this room during the time he was grounded, and he couldn't be in this room for five days.

But that's fine, Lin Xiao didn't want to see his so-called companions.

The atmosphere of the entire No. 1 Battalion was not harmonious, and these old men were divided into several small groups, each of them fighting each other, and they would often cause certain difficulties for each other during the mission.

And this situation has been seen on the first day that Lin Xiao and Gu Yan came, although neither Gu Yan nor Lin Xiao have left their hut in the next few days, but the two of them still have some grasp of the situation in the outside world.

Gu Yan is just like what he said, in the past five days, he has been working hard for a breakthrough, but there will still be some rest time in the process of this effort, and at this time he likes to observe the situation outside and see what the old people outside are doing.

Compared with the ancient sayings of occasionally observing these old people, Lin Xiao belongs to the kind of person who observes from time to time.

During the day, when he was fine, Lin Xiao liked to observe the old people in the open space through the crack in the door, watching them hug into small groups one by one and intrigue there.

Through observation, Lin Xiao also discovered two relatively large groups among these old people.

These two groups were each composed of forty or fifty old men, which was much larger than the rest of the small groups composed of ten or twenty people, and in the entire No. 1 battalion, plus Lin Xiao and Gu Yan, there were a total of one hundred and eighty people. The old men were divided into seven groups, and except for the two largest of them, who occupied more than 90 places at once, the remaining 70 or so people were divided into five groups.

Of course, if Lin Xiao and Gu Yan were also one group, then the entire No. 1 Battalion would have eight groups.

Of course, a two-person group is a bit of a stumbling block, but the two newcomers are obviously excluded by these old people, and even if they want to join any team, those old people will not accept them. What's more, Lin Xiao didn't plan to join any team at all.

After a few days of observation, the time for the mission gradually came.

And Lin Xiao can finally go out.

......

On this day, Cao Tong appeared in the open space of the No. 1 battalion for the first time in five days.

"It's all assembled!" Cao Tong shouted.

Suddenly, more than a hundred people from the No. 1 battalion gathered in front of him with his shout.

Lin Xiao pushed open the door and walked out of the room, and the Gu Yan next door to him also happened to push the door out at this time, and walked over with a smile after seeing Lin Xiao.

"Brother Lin, I haven't seen you for five days, do you think I've become different?" Gu Yan said with a smile on his face.

Lin Xiao glanced at him up and down, and then couldn't help laughing: "Yes, I really broke through." Congratulations!"

Gu Yan smiled, he has worked hard in the past five days, he has never worked so hard when he was at home before, and it is really because of pressure that he is motivated.

"Let's go, let's go too. ”

The two followed the crowd and walked to stand in front of Cao Tong, who had not seen each other for five days, as two newcomers, Lin Xiao and the others consciously stood in a corner, which was not very noticeable.

"It's good, everyone is here. "Cao Tong has seen that everyone has arrived. Then he said: "Today is the day when the new mission is announced, this time if anyone scores less than 50 points, you should understand the end!"

All the old men nodded with strained faces, they clearly knew what would happen if the score was below fifty.

But they are clear. But Lin Xiao and Gu Yan are not clear!

However, Cao Tong didn't seem to want to explain to them, and went straight to the content of this mission.

"This time the battle is taking place on Prisoner 586 in the northwest, and you have three months to capture the points, as is customary. In the end, the one with the highest score in the twenty battalions will be given a year's rest. Cao Tong said.

It's not a good reward, but for those who are caught, they get a year's rest. It's a great reward to not have to participate in such a mission that could cost you your life at any time for a year.

Lin Xiao and Gu Yan didn't know much about this, but they both saw the hideous expressions on the faces of those old men, as if they were about to see the enemy who killed their entire family.

"Very well, now you go and get ready, and you'll set off with me. Cao Tong said and swept his gaze in the crowd, "Those two newcomers, come out for me." ”

As soon as Lin Xiao and Gu Yan heard this, they immediately walked out of the crowd and stood at the front.

"En?" Cao Tong's gaze swept over the two of them, and he nodded with satisfaction when he saw that Gu Yan's strength had successfully advanced to a first-order sky martial artist, but when he saw Lin Xiao, there was a sudden look of surprise in his eyes.

"It's strange, how did this kid become a ninth-order sky martial artist after not seeing him for five days?" Cao Tong thought suspiciously.

The so-called half-step Star Martial King actually refers to those who have touched the edge of the realm of the Star Martial King and may break through at any time.

Their cultivation is still the pinnacle of ninth-order sky martial artists in the eyes of outsiders, and only when they really start to do so will they see the difference between them and the rest of the ninth-order sky martial arts peak masters.

Although Cao Tong was a powerhouse at the level of the Shattered Void Martial Venerable, it was impossible for him to see his true strength when Lin Xiao had not made a move.

Not to mention that Lin Xiao has many hole cards, and the half-step Star Martial King is far from his limit.

Although he was puzzled, Cao Tong was still very happy to have such a master in the team he managed, knowing that when this matter was carried out to Zuihou, if they could train a person who could get a quota, they would get countless rich rewards.

"You two are on a mission for the first time, and there are some things I need to tell you. Cao Tong didn't pay attention to Lin Xiao's cultivation anymore, he took it for granted that Lin Xiao had hidden his cultivation before, and after seeing the many masters here, he didn't plan to hide it.

This kind of thinking is exactly the same as the old saying at the beginning, Lin Xiao didn't say anything, this is all their own assumptions.

Only the reasons they found for Lin Xiao were the reasons they were most willing to believe.

As for whether Lin Xiao was carrying a treasure that could hide his cultivation, Cao Tong was not interested in this, and who didn't have a little secret? These people who were arrested, maybe some of them were young masters from some hidden big families, after all, they could have such strength at such an age, how could they not come from a small place.

"As a newcomer, I don't dare to promise you whether you can survive this mission, but you have also heard it before, if you don't have a score of fifty points after the mission, you will still be punished!" Cao Tong said, "As for this score, it is mainly determined by the number of hostile targets you kill, one point for one target, you must hunt fifty targets and bring back their heads as proof to be qualified!"

It turns out that the so-called score is to see how many enemies you kill, but this 50 points requirement is indeed a bit high.

"In this way, there must be a lot of people who have been eliminated. Lin Xiao thought to himself.

I already knew that they belonged to the side of the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and the so-called enemy naturally belonged to the demon clan on the other side of the Demon Domain.

Obviously, the other party must have also made some places like elite training camps like the Heavenly Dao Alliance to cultivate a group of people like them, but this kind of cultivation method is obviously very murderous, and there is a possibility of losing their lives at any time.

Lin Xiao didn't know whether the strength of the demon domain was strong or not for the time being, but it was obviously impossible to kill fifty times the number of enemies with his own.

Therefore, there will be a lot of people who cannot qualify!

In fact, Lin Xiao was a little wrong, that is, the pass rate of fifty points was actually only a standard for the No. 1 battalion managed by Cao Tong, and the other twenty battalions in the entire elite training camp had a lower standard for scores, basically as long as they reached thirty points, they could pass.

This also led to the fact that in the entire elite training camp, the number of people in their first battalion was always the smallest, not only because Cao Tong was demanding when selecting people, but also because of the high task indicators on their side.

Of course, the first place in almost every mission is a person from their No. 1 Battalion, which also makes Cao Tong's fame extremely great in the entire elite training camp, including the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and many people believe that one of the final three places will definitely belong to the No. 1 Battalion managed by Cao Tong.

"Fifty points is difficult, but I'm sure it's not a difficult thing for you. Cao Tong glanced at Lin Xiao pointedly, "Your goal is to be first, if you can get the first place, then you can take a year off." ”

"I can tell you very clearly that there are only two places in the entire elite training camp of twenty tens of thousands of people who can live to Zuihou, and I hope to see your name in these two places!"

Cao Tong didn't hide the importance he attached to Lin Xiao, which made some old people who heard his words can't help but look over to this side.

"Strange, the instructor seems to value this newcomer?"

"Isn't it? I look at the strength of the newcomers, although it is good, but it is not so important to the instructor, right?"

"That's it, even our boss has never been so praised by the instructor!"

"Have you noticed it, this newcomer's cultivation is like a fog, I remember it wasn't like this last time!"

"Huh~!I thought it was my delusion, but it turns out that you have it too!"

Those old people gathered together, talking in a whisper, pointing at Lin Xiao here from time to time.

Cao Tong didn't care about those people, he said to Lin Xiao that these things were only because it was related to his own interests, if it wasn't for the relationship of interests, he wouldn't care about the lives of these people.

This shijie is so realistic, how can an old fritter like Cao Tong, who has lived for so long......, suddenly start a kindness?
