Chapter 1150

(Unedited)

…

The soldiers sent to hunt beasts return to the camp with a large haul. Xin Ja could tell that the soldiers are strong with most of them at the 4th and 5th levels.

"I'll be going then… See you later…" Senior Yao said as she ruffled Xin Ja's hair.

She is treating Xin Ja like a little brother which made him think of Yao Xue suddenly.

After Yao Mai Lin left, Xin Ja continue staying in his spot. He then began to absorb the chaotic Ki in the air.

Suddenly his eyes perked up upon noticing something.

The chaotic Ki in the surrounding is a bit weird as it contains something else. His body seems to react to that something within the Ki and he could feel the sphere inside his body bursting.

He feels a bit joyful at this time upon discovering such an event.

How could he not get excited when he is about to break through to another level?

As he concentrated on breaking through to the 2nd level, he did not know that the skies are already churning as dark clouds gather like an ominous warning.

Xin Ja continuously attacks his dantian as he tries to break through to the barrier hampering him from improving. In his unique vision, he could see the Ki count in his dantian.

190…

193…

195…

198…

When he reached this point, Xin Ja could suddenly feel a strange pressure emitting from within his dantian. The golden glow in his body suddenly turned brighter as if something is trying to break through it.

But for some reason, it just grew a bit bigger as if something exploded inside of it as it deflates back to its original size.

With a flabbergasted expression on his face, Xin Ja opens his eyes. Beads of sweat cover his face and he could feel the Ki in his body increasing by a lot.

He has finally broken through to the 2nd level.

It took him a long time, but he still succeeded. Now that he is at level two he could already tell the leap that his power has attained.

Although his dantian still shows level 1, his true level is now at the 2nd stage.

"I guess this is what that Shen is talking about… That my true strength would not show outside…" he muttered to himself.

Xin Ja crossed his leg and calms himself down.

…

Meanwhile, the soldiers in the camp are frowning as they look at the sky. They could feel that something is wrong, but could not say what it is. But soon their worries ended as the sky slowly clears up once again showing the two moons hanging and the stars.

The camp returns to its festive mode as they feasted on the meat of the beast the soldiers have caught.

At this time, inside the command center of the army, several men wearing blue officer's garbs are standing around a table with a map on it.

If Xin Ja is here, he would notice some people that he knew, General Hou Yuan, his master Wang Chanling, and Divine Doctor Ba.

As of this moment, the officers are in a meeting while looking at the map.

The one who seems to be leading the group is a man in his late 30's. He is wearing the same blue officer's uniform and his long hair is tied neatly like a small crown on his head.

"Generals and officers… I think we should start training our new soldiers in the strict form of military combat. That way, when we arrive in the training camp, they would not spend their time wasting on such matters…" the man suggested while looking at the map.

Upon hearing this, the expression of some of the officers around him turned a bit happy. They knew what the general wanted to do… hence they are excited about it.

There is a practice in the military where new recruits are faced with each other in a contest. And the winner would receive a prize along with their battalion.

If the Ogden town army battalion would receive such a reward then that would benefit them as well.

So training in advance would be beneficial to the safety and advancement of skills of their soldiers.

Upon thinking to his point no one rejected the suggestion of the general.

"General Fang… I also suggest training the medics and the alchemists…" suddenly a middle-aged man, that has traces of silver hair on his head and a long mustache, suggested.

Upon hearing this, the commanding general, General Fang nodded his head in agreement. Even though the medics and alchemists are not part of the main force, they are still a crucial part of the army for the survival of the troops.

The meeting continues until late at night where the people inside the command tent left.

"General Hou… I heard that you requested a foot soldier to be transferred to be a medic?" General Fang asked with a smile as he followed General Hou out of the tent.

"Ah… Yes, that little guy is the student of both Master Wang and Divine Doctor Ba…" General Hou said while he gesture to the two men beside him.

"Ah! Master Wang? Are… are you Master Wang Chanling?" General Fang suddenly asked with a shocked expression.

Master Wang just showed a faint smile and nodded his head.

Although General Fang is the head General in the army camp, there are still some people in the camp that he did not know… especially the silent and secretive Master Wang, who is already a level 21 Ki Master.

Upon knowing this, General Fang is immediately filled with confidence. With Master Wang in their army, he is sure that they would have a safer trip to the military camp.

Ki masters are rare and even in Win City, there are only a few of them.

So how could he not feel happy knowing that one of them is currently in the army traveling with them?

"It seems that General Fang is well-informed." Wang Chanling said with a smile.

"Haha… Master Wang, I have heard of your prestigious name, that is why I am aware of whom you are…" General Fang replied courteously.

"I will make sure that your student will be safe…" he added.

"No… he is fine where he is. I want him to experience true battle. And it would be his fate if he could survive or not. Like his master, this is my last lesson for him…" Master Wang said with a solemn expression.

"What are you talking about you old geezer…" suddenly Divine Doctor Ba interjected beside him.

"That young fellow is also my student and has given him my entire collection of medical knowledge… I would not let that fellow be harmed, I tell you… I would not let his talent be wasted in the front lines… It would be better for him to experience healing wounded soldiers in the medical tents…" Divine Doctor Ba said with an annoyed expression.

Master Wang could not help but shake his head. He suddenly remembers that his student is also a student of his friend.

"Sigh… Alright, I will just let him see the horror of war… Then if he is in danger, I will protect him…" Master Wang said while glancing at this friend.

"Humph! Who needs your protection? Just remember that little Ja should belong to the infirmary and not in the front lines…"

The two old men began to bicker as the group walks to their tents.

General Hou and General Fang could not help but look at each other helplessly.

"I would like to see this Xin Ja fellow. How could he win the attention of both of these huge figures…" General Fang said.

"Haha… Well, that little fellow is not what he looks. There is something about him that I could not explain…" General Hou replied.

Now the curiosity of General Fang is piqued. A small fellow, weak, and a genius… these three things came to his mind which made him really curious about who this Xin Ja is.

…

The next day…

The army troops continue marching and in the afternoon, they stopped at a clearing near the main road.

The army set up camp and began their training.

Although many of the recruits have military background and training especially the students, most of them are not aware of the standard fighting of the military troops. This is because this is not permitted to be taught in schools or academies.

Standard military fighting is a military formation that would create a synergy among the soldiers which strengthens their fighting prowess twofold once it is executed perfectly.

And for this reason, these types of standard formations are not permitted to be taught to civilians and private armies. Those caught in violation of such laws will be heavily penalized and a death sentence is even possible.

So in this regard, no one dares to teach such formation in their troops even though some have military backgrounds and officers in the military.

The kingdom of Jimal did not want to see any uprising or rebellion… hence they implemented such a policy.

But in times of war, such a strategy is freely taught to the soldiers in the army.

And right now, this is what these new recruits are going to learn.
