Chapter 22: The Examination of the Ninth Army

The Nine-Fold Sect Hanging Field

September is the season of all things, and it is also the time when the Ninth Heavy Army carries out the annual reinforcement. As one of the three major legions, and the only one named after the sect, the influence of the Ninefold Sect is obvious.

At this time, the Ninefold Sect's Hanging Hall was full of people who had come from all over the world to join the army. The expressions on the faces of these people did not show that they were participating in a brutal war, and their faces were more filled with endless yearning and excitement. Perhaps these young people simply do not see the cruelty of war. They can't imagine what a difficult and terrifying future they will face in the future.

The disciples of the Ninefold Sect were busy registering personal information for those who joined the army. The people who join the army will be divided into two categories, the first type of people are young boys and girls under the age of sixteen, people who have no war experience and have low strength, these people will become disciples of the Jiuju faction to cultivate in the Jiuju Mountain, until their strength reaches a certain level and is arranged into the corresponding corps, these people are known as the "reserve army" candidates. On the other hand, people who have experience in war or martial arts cultivation to a certain level and are considered to be able to survive on the battlefield, these people form a separate squad and go directly to the battlefield or are sent to important places such as "sacred walls" or "crypts", which is also what these people want, and these people are known as "regular army" candidates. These two categories will receive different plaques. Reserve army candidates hold red plaques, and regular army candidates hold black plaques.

There are more than 1,200 people who participated in the Ninth Heavy Army, including 700 candidates from the reserve army and 500 candidates from the regular army. These people will undergo a two-week test for the Ninefold Sect, and only those who pass this test will be able to join the Ninefold Army, although the two types of people who are distinguished will go through different tests.

The test of the Ninefold Sect is very severe, and the content of the reserve army test will be a survival test, and these people who participate in the corps will survive for two weeks in the outermost part of the 100,000 mountains of the Nine Mountains. Although the monsters and environments that appeared in the outermost part of the 100,000 Mountains were not terrifying existences, and the Ninefold Sect had been developed on the periphery for hundreds of years, many obstacles and dangers had been eliminated and were not considered dangerous. But for these people, this is undoubtedly a terrifying existence, and it is undoubtedly a huge test to survive in this environment for two weeks. In order to avoid casualties, the disciples of the Ninefold Sect were arranged around these people to protect them at all times, so although there have been cases of candidates being injured in the reserve army examinations, there have never been cases of candidates dying in the exams. The current casualties of the great enemy are the last thing that the Ninth Heavy Army wants to see, so they have made great efforts to prevent casualties.

However, the regular army candidates have to face the test is very cruel, they have to go to the 100,000 mountains to get back the weapons that were placed in advance, as long as the candidates find the weapons and send them to the designated place, they will pass the exam. Of course, the weapons are placed in areas that have been exploited by the Ninth Heavy Army. These weapons were placed in different places in the 100,000 mountains, and the weapons placed in the 100,000 mountains at a time were one-third of the people who took the test. In other words, only one-third of the candidates who took the exam were able to pass the exam, and those who passed the exam were given the weapons they had returned. In order to better select talents, candidates can attack each other during the exam, but the battle is only allowed to be conducted under the supervision of examiners, who are disciples of a certain strength among the disciples of the Ninefold Sect, and they are distributed all over the examination room. Not only that, but in order to avoid unnecessary casualties, many regulations have been made for exams.

These rules include a series of rules such as not killing the opponent, the opponent conceding defeat, or stopping the fight immediately after the examiner decides that one side has won, and the examination period cannot exceed one month.

However, because the internal environment of the 100,000 Great Mountain is too complicated enough, even if there are many disciples of the Ninefold Sect who have penetrated into it and prepared a lot of countermeasures, sometimes it is impossible to protect the safety of the candidates in time. Every year, one or two candidates die. Even though there is a high risk of such an exam, in order to select talents with combat effectiveness, the Kufé faction still insists on such an exam.

Yang Yifan participated in this exam as he wished, and of course Yifan was assigned to the exam of the reserve army.

For Yang Yifan's participation in the Nine-Fold Army, Ma Xian and Yifan's family did not agree, and persuaded him with countless good words. But Yang Yifan's determination to join the army was so resolute that he couldn't listen to other people's words at all. After a period of persuasion did not work, Ma Xian and Yifan's family did not persuade him again. On the one hand, they think that the probability of Yifan passing the exam is not very high, and the exam of the reserve army is quite safe. On the other hand, Li Yi's wish since he was a child was to join the Nine-Fold Army, and his family also wanted him to take an exam to avoid regrets in the future, and also let him die early The idea of joining the Nine-Fold Army and doing something serious. In this way, Yang Yifan finally got the consent of Ma Xian and his family to participate in the examination of the Nine Heavy Army.

On this day, after Yang Yifan registered in the registration square for the Ninth Army Exam, he went to the backyard lounge and waited nervously for the arrangement of tomorrow's exam. As soon as Yang Yifan walked into the lounge, he began to look around, as if he was looking for someone, Yifan looked around and said to himself: "Where has Li Yi, this bastard gone, I haven't seen anyone for two months." They all said that they would go to the exam of the Nine Heavy Army together, did they forget our agreement? ”

Yang Yifan sometimes laughed wildly: "Haha." Li Yi: Don't be too envious after I am admitted to the Ninth Heavy Army. Ha ha. After laughing a few times, he became a little listless again, and said to himself: "Li Yi, where have you been, are you really not coming to the exam? What are you doing now?"

At this time, Yifan really hoped to find Li Yi in these crowds, looking forward to Li Yi suddenly appearing in the crowd and telling him: "Haha, Yifan, I didn't expect it, I'm here too." Do you miss me so much! ”

But Li Yi did not appear, and Yang Yifan turned around the lounge several times without finding Li Yi.

Yifan lowered his head in disappointment, he secretly made up his mind in his heart that for the sake of his agreement with Li Yi, he must pass this exam, and fortunately, Li Yi can help him next time he takes the exam. Yifan was thinking about this when a voice interrupted his musings.

"Who is this! Isn't it the dirt bun that mixed up with Li Yi? He's also here for the exam, and anyone can really come to the exam. The person who spoke was Li Yi's cousin Li Tianxie, he looked at Yang Yifan with disdain, he was dissatisfied with Yang Yifan's appearance here, and he looked at Yifan with provocative eyes.

Yifan glanced at Li Tianxie and said, "Who did I think, it turns out that the evil young master who loves to pretend to be cool? You also came to the exam? I really didn't expect that a noble person like you still needs the exam, I really wronged you." Hmph!" Yifan also turned his head to look away after speaking.

Li Tianxie was about to say something, but the tall young man standing next to Li Tianxie saw the black plaque in Yifan's hand and said sarcastically to Li Tianxie: "Tianxie, don't make trouble, what are you fighting with a person who is taking the reserve army exam! Don't be ashamed! Let's prepare well for tomorrow's exam." "This person can be Li Yi's cousin Li Nantian, and he is the leader of the Li family who took the exam this time.

At this time, other people from the Li family also came over, including Li Yi's sister Li Xiaokui, she recognized Yang Yifan at a glance, smiled at him, said hello, and then walked up to Li Tianxie and said to him: "Brother Tianxie, are you making trouble with others again?"

Li Tianxie saw Xiao Kui helping Yang Yifan speak, "Hmph!" and didn't say anything.

Yang Yifan has always had a bad impression of the brothers of Li Yi's family, and he doesn't want to say anything more to them, although Yifan wants to ask them about Li Yi's whereabouts, but presumably the other party will not tell him seriously. Yang Yifan also turned around and left, and they went to another place to rest. Seeing Yifan turn away, Xiao Kui seemed to want to say something, but stopped again. looked at the back of Yang Yifan leaving.
