This was the kind of army the Royal Guard was!
Even the captain of a 10-soldier squad was an Eternal Realm expert .
The captains of the 100-soldier squads had to be Step Three or Four Eternal Realm experts .
As for the captains of the 1000-soldier squads, it was said that the weakest ones were the top Step Five Eternal Realm and even Step Six Eternal Realm experts .
The Royal Guard was indeed full of experts .
Even if Jian Wushuang showed all his power, he would barely be able to be captain of a 1000-soldier squad . And in higher rankings, there were many people in charge of tens of thousands of soldiers, such as commanders .
“Hey guys, from this moment on, we’re one team . How about we introduce ourselves to each other first?” a triangular-eyed old soldier said with a smile .
“Introduce ourselves? How?” asked Jian Wushuang .
“By using our power, of course . ” The man sneered and continued, “It’s been just the two of us and the captain for several years . Now, you guys have finally joined us . How can we not communicate closely with you?”
Jian Wushuang and the other new recruits felt excited .
Some of them looked full of expectation .
As new recruits, they were looking forward to exchanging moves with the experienced older soldiers .
“Don’t get too excited . It won’t be just a casual battle . We need to make a wager first,” the man continued .
“The duel starts . ” Ouyang Xu raised his eyebrows .
“Wager? Duel?” Jian Wushuang smiled slightly .
“Come on, one by one, each of you has to have at least one fight with us,” the man continued with a sneer .
The new recruits looked at each other with a frown .
One of them walked forward and asked the man, “How much you wanna bet?”
“Not much, just 200,000 Divine Gems,” he answered casually .
“What?!” The new recruit was startled .
200,000 Divine Gems?
Normally, a superior Divine Realm expert’s total assets were only about 100,000 Divine Gems . The amount he wanted was too much .
“Well, it’s only 200,000 Divine Gems, you can’t afford it?” the man asked, staring at the recruit .
“Of course, I can, but…” the recruit muttered . He hesitated .
“Well then, what are you waiting for? Come on, take them out . Considering that you are a new recruit, you can choose any one of us as your opponent, including the captain,” the triangular-eyed man said in a contemptuous manner .
The new recruit changed his expression slightly; he had spotted the man’s disdain and was enraged by it . He nodded heavily . “Then, I choose you . ”
“You want to fight against me? Very good . ” The man grinned . In no time, the two came to blows .
Both of them were Divine Realm experts . The new recruit had to be powerful to have been able to join the Royal Guard .
However, after they had exchanged several moves…
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A series of fierce clashes sounded . It was a close battle at first, but after several minutes, the triangular-eyed man suddenly launched a powerful attack and defeated the new recruit .
“How could this be?”
The new recruit could not believe that he had lost .
He had clearly felt that he was about to win, but then he lost .
“If I lost, I lost . ” The new recruit took out 200,000 Divine Gems, handed them to the man, and walked back to his companions bitterly .
“Haha, let’s move on . Who’s next?” The man smiled wildly .
Standing among the new recruits, Jian Wushuang secretly shook his head .
He could tell that the old soldier had deliberately hidden his power . He had restrained his power at first to relax the new soldier’s vigilance, and then suddenly launched a surprisingly powerful attack to defeat him .
“This man wants to cheat more new recruits to win their Divine Gems .
“These old soldiers were specially selected into the Royal Guard and have spent a rather long time in the army . They are much more powerful than most superior Divine Realm experts and can even battle a few top Divine Realm experts . Moreover, their magic weapons are better than others’ . ” Jian Wushuang gasped secretly in admiration .
He could tell that the weapon the man used was an Eternal Weapon, which earned him a great advantage .
The man had hidden his power in order to win more Divine Gems in the following battles .
“Next . ”
The triangular-eyed man let out a laugh of joy when he defeated the second challenger and won another 150,000 Divine Gems .
The duels continued .
Each of the eight new recruits had to fight with the old soldiers at least once, and they also had to offer a bet of no less than 100,000 Divine Gems .
After a few rounds, the triangular-eyed man had won nearly a million Divine Gems .
Jian Wushuang and Ouyang Xu were the only two who had not fought yet .
“Haha, who’s next? Hurry!” the old soldier urged the recruits .
Ouyang Xu walked up to him with a frown .
“Kid, how much are you going to bet?” the man asked Ouyang Xu .
“One million Divine Gems,” Ouyang Xu answered directly .
“Oh?” the triangular-eyed man was surprised .
The other new recruits stared at Ouyang Xu .
The old soldier had won six rounds . By now all the new recruits knew that he had been deliberately hiding his power .
Ouyang Xu must have known this as well, but all the same, he offered a million Divine Gems as a bet . He had to be confident about his power .
“Is this boy a top Divine Realm expert?” The man’s face grew serious .
Every time the Royal Guard recruited new members, there were at least a few top Divine Realm experts among the recruits .
This time, among the one thousand new recruits, about a hundred of them were top Divine Realm experts . It was possible that some of them were the new members of his team .
Thinking of this, his confidence was swayed .
He turned to the man beside him with a grin . “One million Divine Gems is too much for me, I can’t afford it . Xie Zi, you’re much richer than me and can probably afford it . I’ll leave this boy to you . ”
