In order to better understand the strength of each recruit, the officers of the recruit camp divided everyone into six large groups, with more than 100 people in each group. Everyone participated in the competition, and then each group was selected through one-on-one elimination. The strongest among them.
According to the arrangement of the battalion commander Cao Zhen, the fighting in this battalion should be as close to actual combat as possible. Although all the knives are not sharpened and all the guns have their tips removed, they are still easily injured.
In order to leave a good impression on the generals and secure a good future for themselves, all the recruits went all out in this most important test training. Therefore, exciting fights occurred frequently, and many new recruits with outstanding abilities emerged.
After watching several battles, Ye Ying couldn't help but have a new understanding of these recruits. Among these recruits, there were actually about twenty people who had cultivated their internal strength and entered the realm of warriors like himself.
What Ye Ying didn't know was that since the two emperors of Daning were abducted by the Northern Barbarians, the new emperor Liu Gou decided to change the status quo of Daning that emphasized civility over military affairs and issued several decrees to encourage warriors. The imperial examinations were also divided into literary examinations and martial arts examinations.
As a result, many martial arts families have emerged and many young people have been trained. They believe that in this war-torn era. If you want to get ahead, joining the army is the fastest way, so many aristocratic families send their outstanding young people to the army.
The three prestigious legions of Crazy Lion, Flying Dragon and War Tiger inevitably become everyone's first choice. It is no surprise that there are some young people with good kung fu among the recruits in each phase.
The recruits were all young people. Seeing the outstanding performance of those extraordinary companions, everyone was extremely excited. They even speculated who would be the first in each group of competitions, or who would be the first in the recruit camp. A master.
In his previous performance, Ye Ying did not try his best, or even used his internal strength at all. He defeated his opponent with just martial arts, so he was very popular among the recruits. Not only was he far behind Qi Jiao, he was even inferior to Shan Fu and Zhao Hu, who were only at the lower level of first-grade warriors.
In the first two rounds of competition, Ye Ying's opponents were relatively weak, but Ye Ying still took care of their emotions and gave them enough "performance" time to "reluctantly" win.
But Qi Jiao is different. He uses his ultimate move without any effort, and can easily defeat his opponent with almost one or two counterattacks. Qi Jiao's outstanding performance also made him the favorite to win the championship in his group.
Qi Jiao liked this feeling very much and was full of confidence in taking the first place in the group. He even looked at Ye Ying with pity. This guy could no longer escape the fate of kowtowing to him in front of everyone.
The fight lasted for two days, and more than a hundred people were eliminated one after another. In the end, only eight people were left. Ye Ying's five-person team was the most outstanding among the more than 100 people they were part of, and four of them actually entered the final eight.
Gander was the only one eliminated in the five-person group, but he didn't feel depressed at all. Instead, he was proud that there were so many capable people in his group.
For this reason, in all the games played by the five-member team, Gander is always the first to appear on the scene to cheer for his brothers.
In the eight-to-four competition, the four members of Ye Ying's team finally met. The specific matchup was Ye Ying versus Shan Fu, while Zhao Hu's opponent was Qi Jiao, who was recognized as the strongest.
The first ones to start the fight were Qi Jiao and Zhao Hu. Two strong men with strength, started a powerful confrontation without any fancy.
As soon as the fight started, both sides went all out and started a fierce battle like sparks hitting the earth. Both of them seemed to have a missing string in their brains. They didn't know how to dodge or other skills, so they directly started clashing with weapons.
This huge battle made the watching recruits excited. They tried their best to shout for the companions they supported, making the whole scene very lively.
Qi Jiao has always been strong, but there are reasons for his strength, because his strength is really good. Not long after the two sides fought, he gained the upper hand.
However, Zhao Hu's performance also surprised Qi Jiao, because even though he was at a disadvantage and even suffered a minor injury, Zhao Hu had no intention of admitting defeat and did not even hum.
As the competition continued, the shock in Qi Jiao's heart became more and more severe. He began to admire this member of the group who usually kept silent. He did not expect him to have such strong perseverance.
Although he was at a disadvantage and his injuries were getting more and more serious, Zhao Hu had only one thought in his mind. Although he had almost no chance of winning, he had to make the opponent pay some price. In this way, when he faced Brother Sixteen later, The possibility of losing will be greater.
What Zhao Hu didn't expect was that his persistence not only won the appreciation of his companions who were watching the battle, but even Qi Jiao, his opponent, also admired him.
Seeing that Zhao Hu was suffering more and more injuries, Qi Jiao couldn't bear it anymore. He began to reduce the strength of his attack and at the same time persuaded Zhao Hu to admit defeat.
"Huzi, give up!" Ye Ying and Shan Fu shouted from the side, worried that something might happen to Zhao Hu.
Normally, Zhao Hu almost obeyed Ye Ying's words, but at this time, he became stubborn and refused to admit defeat no matter what.
In the end, the battalion commander who was watching the battle couldn't bear it anymore and forcibly stopped the fight. Zhao Hu then withdrew from the circle with unfulfilled interest.
The fight between Qi Jiao and Zhao Hu made all the recruits watching say it was wonderful. The fight was over, and they still felt that they were still unsatisfied.
Then, the fight between Ye Ying and Shan Fu greatly exceeded everyone's expectations. They thought it would be another fight like sparks hitting the earth, but it ended in a dramatic way.
Before the competition officially started, the fat boy Shan Fu came to the scene and announced with a smile that he would give up in this competition.
Shan Fu's decision made almost everyone present wide-eyed. They didn't believe their ears, because judging from the previous matches, Shan Fu's strength should be higher than that of Ye Ying. How could he abstain from the competition at this time?
But Shan Fu didn't think so. Not to mention that he knew he was no match for Ye Ying. More importantly, he didn't want to consume Ye Ying's physical strength because of himself, so that he would be in good condition to defeat the opponents behind him.
Of course Ye Ying understood Shan Fu's thoughts. He wanted to stop Shan Fu, but he thought that this was a military camp and if Shan Fu went back on his promise, he would probably be punished for defying the competition, so he had to give up.
Qi Jiao actually understood the reason why Shan Fu did this, but he didn't think it mattered because he thought that his victory should be a sure thing.
But there was one thing that made Qi Jiao feel envious. Shan Fu and the former Zhao Hu really didn't care about personal gains and losses for Ye Ying. This kind of brotherhood is really rare.
For this reason, Qi Jiao has an even stronger idea of defeating Ye Ying and subduing him to become his follower. In this case, Shan Fu and Zhao Hu, two very powerful guys, will also become his supporters.
There was not much suspense in the next two matches. Qi Jiao and Ye Ying defeated their opponents respectively. But this time, because the opponent was very strong, Ye Ying had to expose some of his strength and show off the strength of a first-grade warrior.
Ye Ying's performance made the new recruits watching the game excited, and they began to look forward to the final showdown between Ye Ying and Qi Jiao.
"As expected, you have reservations, but that's fine. If I win the last battle too easily, it will be too boring." Seeing that Ye Ying was not as weak as he had shown before, Qi Jiao was not worried at all. There is some excitement.
Amid everyone's expectations, the last game was finally about to begin. The two people participating in the final showdown stood in the field holding weapons.
The weapon in Qi Jiao's hand is a big iron rod. This is the favorite weapon of Daning's warriors who are good at strength, because the founder of the Daning Dynasty and the first emperor of Daning relied on an iron rod. The one who conquers the world with a stick.
In Ye Ying's hand, there is a spear with the tip removed. This is also his favorite weapon. Back then, Eagle Commander Ye Fei used a spear, carrying thirteen eagles and nearly three hundred thousand eagles. The army killed the northern barbarians until they threw away their helmets and armor.
"You'd better hold on for a few more rounds. If you win too easily, it won't be interesting." Before the competition started, Qi Jiao said loudly to Ye Ying in front of him, causing his supporters to burst into laughter.
"I think so too. I hope you won't disappoint me." Ye Ying didn't feel angry at all about Qi Jiao's provocation. He replied with a smile.
"The competition begins!" A veteran who was serving as the judge shouted, and a frightening aura immediately rose from Qi Jiao's body.
"Strike Huashan with all your strength!" Qi Jiao shouted, suddenly jumped up high on the spot, and hit Ye Ying's head with the big stick in her hand.
Qi Jiao's strength was immense, and she was sure to win this time. This iron rod, which contained more than half of her body's internal strength, could be smashed into pieces even if it was a stone, let alone Ye Ying, who was only made of flesh and blood.
Qi Jiao launched such an earth-shattering and violent attack when she arrived, causing all the recruits watching the battle to scream in surprise. Many people looked at Ye Ying with pity in their eyes, because in their eyes, this one strike was Ye Ying's death no matter what. Irresistible.
Seeing Qi Jiao's blow coming with force, Ye Ying didn't want to fight him head-on. He was about to turn around and let go of the oncoming blow. Unexpectedly, he felt a resistance. It turned out that Qi Jiao had used part of his inner strength to lock the target. Ye Ying's figure.
Qi Jiao's internal strength is not very strong. It is still impossible to completely imprison a person's actions, but she can still do it by blocking it for a moment. But the fatal thing is this short moment, because this time is enough for Dafang to hit Ye Ying on the head.
The stick was not far from Ye Ying's head. Qi Jiao was still imagining in a bad way, if she put the stick on Ye Ying's head, would this guy be scared to death?
But at this moment, Ye Ying's figure suddenly disappeared, and the big stick Qi Jiao swung hit nothing.
Qi Jiao's reaction was also quick. He quickly discovered Ye Ying's current position. His figure only moved slightly to one side, but with this distance, Qi Jiao's big stick could not hit him.
The recruits who were watching the battle were also stunned. They actually didn't see clearly how Ye Ying's true feelings escaped from the attack range of Qi Jiao's big stick?
At this time, Qi Jiao realized that Ye Ying actually had an internal strength that was no less than her own. In other words, Ye Ying was the same as herself, at least a first-class warrior.
"It seems that you still hide your strength, but you are still no match for me." Ye Ying's outstanding performance not only did not disappoint Qi Jiao, but also stimulated his fighting spirit to the greatest extent.
