Prodigiously Amazing Weaponsmith

Chapter 3051: Really Can’t Leave (3)

After another hour or so, the demon tribe had completely driven off.

Huang Yueli and Xia Yunxi took the opportunity to join in the battle, killing many devils who were scattered from their teams.

The majority of the devil army was just at devil soldiers rank and they won in numbers, so the rewards that both of them reaped were fairly decent.

When they returned to the campsite, the atmosphere there was unexpectedly serene.

The human soldiers seemed to be used to this kind of midnight sneak attack.

All of them silently cleaned up the battlefield and returned to their tents to rest, leaving only those soldiers who were patrolling.

Huang Yueli heaved a deep sigh when she saw that, “Looks like we really can’t leave this place!”

From tonight’s battle, she finally understood that Xia Yunxi and they ran into great luck over the past few days!

Now, if she wanted to leave this campsite and return to Blessed City safely, that was practically impossible. Unless… the demon tribe were thoroughly smashed!

Early next morning, the two of them had an audience with the Divine Lieutenant who was in control of this campsite. They expressed their intention to stay and fight with the allied armies against the demon tribe.

The middle-aged Divine Lieutenant seemed to have expected this earlier as he nodded and said, “Very good. Then from now on, you will be Team 3 and Team 4’s team leaders under Commander Hu. I hope the two of you can show… your true powers!”

When he said the word “true”, his sharp gaze swept past the both of them.

Huang Yueli and Xia Yunxi were rather shocked.

This Divine Lieutenant’s foresight was rather accurate and he seemed to have seen through something…

Commander Hu was the bearded man who brought them to meet the Divine Lieutenant yesterday. After he received the order, he personally came to bring them back.

Huang Yueli secretly asked, “Commander Hu, what status does the Divine Lieutenant hold? He’s definitely an important figure within the army, right?”

Commander Hu snorted, “You don’t even know who our Divine Commander is! Divine Lieutenant Li Yukun is already a Seven Star Divine Lieutenant! Moreover, he’s not holding the position just based on his individual battle power. He’s also proficient in directing battles and that’s why he was posted here to defend such a critical stronghold!”

“Wow, he’s a Seven Star Divine Lieutenant! No wonder…” Xia Yunxi couldn’t help but gasp in surprise.

One would need 100 thousand military merits to become a Divine Lieutenant and that was extremely difficult for young practitioners. However, for those practitioners who had been serving the army for many years, it wasn’t a difficult feat.

But the disparity between Divine Lieutenants in terms of power or standard of directing battles was still very huge!

100 thousand military merits and 99 thousand military merits were a world of difference. Even if it was a Divine Lieutenant, the allied armies would also dispatch them to different strongholds based on their actual military merits and differentiate them according to the stars ranking.

Li Yukun was already a Seven Star Divine Lieutenant. That meant that he had already accumulated a total of seven hundred thousand military merits and above.

Based on his strength in the Heart Profound Realm end-phase, it was obviously impossible to get so many military merits. That would only mean that his ability in terms of directing battles should be rather outstanding.

Whereas what Huang Yueli paid attention to was another aspect.

“Li Yukun… his surname is also Li. Is Divine Lieutenant from the Cloudy Qilin Clan?”

Commander Hu nodded and said, “That’s right! Most of the important high-ranking military officers come from Cloudy Qilin Clan. It’s exactly because the Cloudy Qilin Clan has outstanding merits in fighting the demon tribe, so that’s why they hold such esteemed positions in God Realm! The highest military positions are helmed by Cloudy Qilin Clan and Veracious Wyvern Clan.”
