Chapter 1486: I Want These Two Men!

Under Di Qianjun lead, the four enter one of the side halls in the castle. A beautiful lady sat inside. After seeing Di Qianjun, she smiled broadly, walked over, and said warmly, “Lord Qianjun, what a pleasant surprise! You actually have time to come here today?”

Cough, cough!

Di Qianjun glanced at Di Ling’er behind him as he dry-coughed a few times and said, “Sister Hua, this is my niece; and that is Brother Changhe’s daughter. These two guys are geniuses from the Earth Emanations Domain. I have brought them here to register.”

“Oh?”

Sister Hua’s smile became even brighter as she warmly held onto Di Ling’er’s hand, looked at the rest, and said, “All of you are heroes and heroines; it is the Demon-Buster Army’s pleasure to have you guys. Lord Qianjun, what positions do you think we should give them?”

Di Qianjun thought for a moment and said, “Let’s arrange some clerical work for my niece and Young Mistress Huaisang… and combat designations for the other two. This is Battle God Jiang Yi; he had just won the Wen Fight first place in the Ten Thousand Domain Tournament. He has also recently been given the title ‘Battle God’ by Lord Ye Sheng and the Earth Emanations Sovereign. It shouldn’t be a problem to arrange for him to be a junior captain, right?”

“Ah, ya, ya!”

Sister Hua looked at Jiang Yi with surprise as she nodded and said, “Battle God Jiang Yi, I have long heard of your accolades; it is a given that you will at least be a junior captain. Even if I hadn’t heard about you—since Lord Qianjun has personally made a trip, I must give this face to him.”

“Many thanks, My Lord!”

Jiang Yi bowed. It was indeed good to have influence. Jiang Yi wanted to be a junior captain not only to get power and authority, but also for battle merits. The higher one’s rank was, the greater the share of battle merits he would get on missions. Jiang Yi was severely lacking battle merits now.

“Battle God Jiang Yi is too polite.”

Sister Hua probably was on very good terms with Di Qianjun; they were probably having a fling on the side as well. She waved her hand and continued, “Battle God Jiang Yi and the rest of you shouldn’t stay in the military tents; I will arrange for a castle for you four. However, as your ranks are still rather low, I can only arrange for the smallest castle; I hope that you guys can understand.”

Di Ling’er and Mo Huaisang’s eyes lit up. If they had to stay in military tents, not only was the place dirty and messy, but it would tarnish their reputations; they were after all the top-class young mistresses in the Earth Domain. The four uttered their thanks once again as Sister Hua waved a man over and asked him to bring the four to register and collect their battle armor and to their accommodations.

After busying for a while, the group each received a set of silver battle armor. However, the insignias on them were different. The crescent moons on the two young mistresses’ battle armor indicated that they were doing clerical work. It would probably be to record battle merits, delegate missions, and the like. After all, the two were not here to gain battle merits and were evidently here to try and get close to the Little Eagle King; they were not that hard up about battle merits.

Jiang Yi’s insignia was that of a sword above a demon’s head; this was a captain’s insignia. Poison Spirit naturally did not have this special treatment; he was but a normal soldier with only a demon’s head as his insignia.

The castle the four were allocated to was indeed very small. There was only one main hall and six rooms while the decorations were ordinary. It was decently clean, however. Di Ling’er and Mo Huaisang already knew the conditions here, and so they were actually quite pleased with what they got. They could slowly find someone to change the decorations to make the place nicer. They were just happy they didn’t have to stay within the military tents.

After the four had settled down, Di Qianjun came once again and explained the rules and happenings of the Demon-Buster Army. Jiang Yi previously did not have a deep understanding of the Demon-Buster Army; after Di Qianjun’s explanation, he more or less got the basics right.

Once one entered the Demon-Buster Army, he had to serve for at least three years before he could leave. Only when one became a commander could he have the right to go home once a year. If one became a general, there were no restrictions; and he could come and go as he pleased.

This mystic realm was called the Demon-Buster Valley; it was the headquarters of the Demon-Buster Army encampment. There will always be two King-Ranked commanders-in-chief stationed at headquarters; this place was as safe as it could get. Everyone also had to obey the rules in the Demon-Buster Valley. If anyone battled due to any conflicts, even if one was a commander, as long as he dared to attack another person; he would be punished. Moreover, battle merits would be deducted from him!

If one dared to kill someone else without cause, even a general would have to die!

The battle merits accumulated in the Demon-Buster Army could be used in the entire Earth Domain. That meant that the battle merits gained here could be used by Jiang Yi as Demon-Killing Pavilion battle merits while the Earth Emanations Pavilion members could use it as Earth Emanations Pavilion battle merits. This was a consensus reached by the ten thousand domains during the formation of the Demon-Buster Army.

The Demon-Buster Valley had limitless amounts of cultivation resources: all sorts of elixirs, treasures, ten-thousand-fold and hundred-thousand-fold secret cultivation rooms, etc. One could also be teleported to the Primitive Mystic Realm, Dao Heaven Mystic Realm, and Primordial Mystic Realm from here. Of course, one had to have battle merits in order to do so. Divine roots were not usable here; only battle merits were.

Of course…

Any place would have a black market. Great family clan young masters and young mistresses with divine roots could pay a huge amount of divine roots to secretly buy and trade for battle merits. On the surface, everyone turned a blind eye to these occurrences. After all, these were people from great family clans while the majority of formidable martial artists in the Demon-Buster Army also came from the great family clans of all domains.

Di Ling’er and Mo Huaisang had been arranged to take up posts in headquarters to do more or less the same type of work as Sister Hua. Of course, they did not have as much authority as her. The two were not here really to join the Demon-Buster Army; probably many young masters and young mistresses were also using their connections to get such slacking jobs.

Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit were different. They had to go report to the new recruits’ office later and await selection by the various army camps to boost their numbers.

Once the two entered an army, they had to obey military orders from then on and follow the army on missions together to accumulate battle merits. Of course, when they were resting and recuperating and not out on missions, they could head to the Mission Office on their own to accept other jobs.

Di Qianjun had arranged everything already. Once they went to the new recruits’ office, Di Qianjun would arrange for someone to select them. After that—when they joined his troop successfully, they could go out on missions together. This way, Di Qianjun could look after them, and if Jiang Yi performed well, his promotion could also be accelerated.

“Alright! Everything will be as Lord Di has arranged.”

Jiang Yi did not have an opinion; it was the same for him whichever army he joined. Since Mo Changhe was not in the camp at the moment, following Di Qianjun was not a bad idea. Di Ming must have long given instructions while Di Qianjun looked like a nice person. At least if Jiang Yi followed him, no ordinary person would dare to plot against him secretly. The Demon-Buster Army had a rule that if one killed his comrades, he would face the death penalty.

“Then, it is settled! You two can go to the new recruits’ office first to report. Later on, I will arrange for someone to receive you guys. Once you two have completed the procedures, you do not have to even stay in the military tents; you can come back here and stay. No one would dare say anything; this is my territory.”

Di Qianjun nodded as Jiang Yi nodded back and brought Poison Spirit out. After a few turns here and there, they finally found a castle and were brought into the drill grounds behind the castle.

Many people were standing on the drill grounds awaiting selection. Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit also stood among them quietly. Around a hundred men were present; the lowest grade among them was Battle King like Jiang Yi. There were around ten who were around the same level as Poison Spirit. However, Jiang Yi did not sense any Titled Battle Gods present.

Shh-shh-shh!

Three men suddenly came from outside. Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit glanced over as they grew excited. These three had come to select new recruits, right? Were these the men that Di Qianjun had arranged?

“You… you, and you. Follow us and join the Heaven-Splitting Army!”

One senior captain formidable martial artist pointed at the ten Demon-Killing Battle God-equivalent martial artists and coldly commanded. Poison Spirit had also been pointed at. Jiang Yi’s brows narrowed. The Heaven-Splitting Army was probably not the one Di Qianjun was in. If Poison Spirit was taken away, it would be problematic to transfer him over later, right?

Shh-shh-shh!

At this moment, another three people entered. A valiant and heroic-in-bearing female battle goddess brought her two female bodyguards and entered. This battle goddess looked around, and her eyes lit up when they met Jiang Yi’s.

As a general, Qi Qingchen has actually come personally to pick her recruits?

Jiang Yi was silently shocked, and he suddenly had a premonition that something bad was about to happen. Alas, Qi Qingchen pointed at Jiang Yi and Poison Spirit and said, “I want these two men!”

“No way!”

Jiang Yi instinctively reacted. He did not want to join Qi Qingchen’s army. Her army was probably the place where all the young masters wanted to find their way in, right? If he went there, there was bound to be trouble. Also, Jiang Yi was not used to being a freeloader. He was also not used to being commanded here and there by a woman.
