Chapter 372: Chapter 373 Taking Command

"My God, this guy killed a Wo Country spy just by spitting out hidden weapons from his mouth?"

"He’s way too strong!" A group of Beirong warriors stood agape.

Looking back at Zhao Liang and the others, their mouths hung open, their jaws nearly hitting the floor.

"Boss, what kind of a monster did you bring back today?"

"That’s freaking awesome!" Xiao Liu and the others exclaimed in shock.

Zhao Liang said excitedly, "This strength, I’m afraid it has reached the level of a Great Grandmaster."

The scene shifts to dozens of Wo Country ninjas.

"Lord Noji is dead!"

"Avenge Lord Noji!"

"Kill that kid!" Dozens of Wo Country ninjas glared at Ye Wudao with hatred and threw their shuriken all at once.

Whoosh!

Whoosh whoosh!

In an instant, dozens of shuriken flew through the air.

"Be careful!" Zhao Liang and the others said anxiously.

Ye Wudao’s eyes flashed with a cold glint, his fingers gripping the Beiwang Blade, and he swung it fiercely.

Whoosh!

A terrifying black blade light, carrying immense power, crushed all the shuriken in an instant. The dreadful blade light didn’t lose any of its might and hit all the ninjas on the rooftop.

Boom!

A loud crash echoed as the rooftop collapsed. Dozens of Wo Country ninjas were wiped out by a single slash and fell to the ground.

Utter silence fell over the entire place!

All the Beirong warriors on the scene gaped in awe, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.

Someone, unable to hold their breath any longer, let out a piercing scream that broke the silence.

"Holy shit, he took out all the Wo Country spies with just one strike!"

"So strong!"

Zhao Liang swallowed hard, the young man he’d stumbled upon today in the wilderness was unimaginably powerful...

At that moment, a round of applause sounded.

"Brilliant, brilliant!"

The crowd turned to look and saw a middle-aged military man in black uniform approaching, with a square face and an imposing air, radiating a boundless killing intent.

Behind him stood thousands of well-prepared elite troops.

Ye Wudao eyed him, sensing that this man was exceedingly strong and oppressive, definitely a top-tier war venerable combatant!

"Holy shit, it’s the commander of our Xuanwu Army Corps!"

"Greetings to the Great Commander!" All the soldiers at the scene kneeled on one knee, faces filled with fear.

"Commander, I’ve brought shame upon myself!" Deputy General Xu said, ashamed.

"Heh heh, if you want to thank someone, then thank this young man properly!" the Xuanwu Army Corps commander said, pointing at Ye Wudao.

Deputy General Xu quickly thanked Ye Wudao, "Thank you, brother, for lending a hand!"

Ye Wudao shook his head, "It was nothing!"

Zhao Liang and the others were kneeling. Seeing Ye Wudao standing, they quickly tugged at him, "Quick, kneel down, this is the commander of our Xuanwu Army Corps!"

Ye Wudao stood as straight as a pine tree, like a blade reaching for the sky.

"I’m Ling Wei, commander of the Xuanwu Army Corps!" Ling Wei approached Ye Wudao and extended his hand, "Thank you for your selfless help!"

"No need to be polite!" Ye Wudao shook his hand.

But at the moment the two men’s hands met, Ling Wei suddenly unleashed a terrifying force.

Ye Wudao’s expression darkened!

The force was so strong, as heavy as a mountain!

Ye Wudao’s hand couldn’t help trembling, but he refused to admit defeat.

The several powerful figures standing behind them were astonished, "This kid, he can actually shake hands with our boss for so long?"

"It’s almost been ten seconds, right?"

"He’s extraordinary!"

Ye Wudao was having a hard time shaking hands with Ling Wei. Just when he was about to lose his grip, Ling Wei suddenly let go and smiled, "Promising young man!"

Ye Wudao quickly withdrew his hand, his eyes showing displeasure, "Is this how you repay someone else’s kindness?"

"Heh heh, sorry, I don’t know my own strength!" Ling Wei smiled faintly and asked, "Young man, what brings you to Beirong?"

Zhao Liang hastily said, "Reporting to the corps leader, his name is Ye Wudao, and he plans to join the army in Northern Liang!"

What?

Ling Wei’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, "You have come to join the Northern Liang army!"

"Indeed!" Ye Wudao nodded.

"Joining the army to serve the country, very good!" Ling Wei praised.

Zhao Liang excitedly said, "Corps leader, my friend’s strength is not bad, could he possibly take on a colonel’s position?"

In Zhao Liang’s eyes, Ye Wudao’s strength should be decent, and there was a good chance of him becoming a colonel, yet below a deputy general, overseeing a few hundred people!

So young, and if he could become a colonel, that would already make him a true rarity!

As for the position of deputy general above colonel, Zhao Liang didn’t even dare to dream of it.

Ling Wei smiled and said, "Great Commander Liu, report the current vacancies for officer positions in our Northern Liang army!"

"Yes!" The man named Commander Liu, holding a list, declared loudly, "Among the low-ranking officers in our Northern Liang army, we currently have the most vacancies for colonel, totaling thirty-six people."

"Among the mid-ranking officers, there are eighteen vacancies for deputy general, and four vacancies for general!"

"In the high-ranking corps, there is one vacancy for the commander of Defense Area 14, and the Great Commander positions are fully staffed! Report complete!" Commander Liu finished his report.

Ling Wei nodded and turned his gaze to Ye Wudao, "In our Xuanwu Corps’ high-ranking officers, there is currently one vacancy for a commander position, I wonder if you are interested?"

Wow!

A single stone stirs up a thousand ripples!

"Damn, the corps leader is inviting him to take the position of commander?"

"How old is he, only in his twenties, right? To become a commander of the Xuanwu Corps, that’s a high-ranking officer with real power, commanding five thousand troops!"

"Did I hear that wrong?"

Zhao Liang and the others were struck as if by thunder, their minds went blank!

"Bro Liang, the expert we stumbled upon today, it’s not just a matter of strength anymore!"

"That’s too mighty!" Xiao Liu and the others trembled.

Zhao Liang swallowed hard and said, "This, this is simply a Great Grandmaster!"

Ling Wei saw that Ye Wudao did not speak and thought he might be disappointed, and could not help saying, "You’re not satisfied?"

"No way, Great Grandmaster, you’re not satisfied?"

"This is a commander position, after all, in charge of seven or eight deputy generals, two or three generals, he’s like a minor lord."

"In the entire Xuanwu Corps, there are just over ten commanders!" Zhao Liang and others discussed.

Ye Wudao shook his head, "I have no interest in positions, I only want to go to the front line, to kill the enemy!"

"Ambitious!"

Ling Wei praised, "Then this commander’s position is rightfully yours, Xuanwu Corps Defense Area 14 is on the very front, defending against outsiders! Battles happen daily! Your predecessor died valiantly in combat!"

"Good!" Ye Wudao nodded.

"However, I must remind you, Defense Area 14 is the most dangerous among all the areas of the Xuanwu Corps, casualties are always high, you can choose a safer place." Ling Wei cautioned.

"It’s okay, I’ll go to the most dangerous place," Ye Wudao spoke.

"Courageous!" Ling Wei nodded and said, "Great Commander Liu, please personally escort Commander Ye to his new post!"

"By your command!" Great Commander Liu nodded, taking out a black token and said, "This is your commander token!"

"Thank you, but that won’t be necessary!" Ye Wudao received the commander’s token, smiled at Zhao Liang, "Would you be willing to take me there?"

"What? Of course, we can, this, this would be our honor, Commander Ye Sir!" Zhao Liang and the others were overjoyed; they weren’t even qualified to be colonels, yet they had the chance to establish a connection with a commander like Ye Wudao. Holding on to his coattails was like their ancestors’ graves sprouting auspicious smoke.

Soon enough, Ye Wudao was whisked away in an army green off-road vehicle, speeding off.

As they watched Ye Wudao’s receding figure, everyone exchanged glances.

"This guy is somewhat arrogant!"

"Yeah, he didn’t even greet the corps leader when he left!"

Great Commander Liu whispered, "Corps leader, what do you think of this Commander Ye, what kind of person is he?"

Ling Wei was silent for a moment, then suddenly said, "This young man has an unyielding spirit and is extraordinary, he reminds me of a certain great person I once knew!"

"Who?" Great Commander Liu asked.

"Beiwang!" Ling Wei said.

"What? He’s similar to the legendary Beiwang?!" Great Commander Liu was shocked.

"Hmm, I’m pretty accurate in judging people, they share something in common!"

"What do they have in common?" Great Commander Liu asked curiously.

"They both possess the ambition of a Kunpeng spreading its wings, aiming to expand territory and become kings!" Ling Wei said slowly.
