Wuhun Xuanming Turtle? Bullshit, this is the sacred beast Xuanwu

Chapter 22: The battle for quota, the target of public criticism

"His name is Xu Lingxiao."

"From now on, he will be a member of your team three."

In the tent.

Mu Xue gave instructions to the captain of Team Three, Ou Lie.

Ou Lie.

He was a middle-aged man with a dark complexion and a tall stature. He was obviously a general.

"Yes!"

It is not permitted to salute while wearing armor in the army.

Ou Lie nodded slightly in response to Mu Xue's arrangement.

"Welcome to join us."

"Little brother, welcome to join our team three. We will work together from now on."

The adjutant on the side stepped forward and stretched out a hand.

"I am Adjutant Zhang Du."

"Then I'll trouble you brothers to take care of it."

Xu Lingxiao stretched out a hand and shook hands tightly with Zhang Dudu.

The hand was rough, covered with calluses and even some wounds.

"A few days ago, I was just about to ask the general to transfer some brothers from other armies, but I didn't expect the general to have already brought them here, hahahaha."

Ou Lie laughed heartily, and at the same time reached out and patted Xu Lingxiao.

"Yeah, that's good."

Ou Lie looked at Xu Lingxiao, who didn't move at all, with some surprise in his eyes.

He used a lot of force when he hit her. If an ordinary person was caught off guard by such a hit, he would probably fall down.

Xu Lingxiao didn't move at all.

The lower body is very stable.

"Captain Ou, Ling Xiao is not ordinary."

Mu Xue saw Ou Lie's actions and smiled calmly.

How could someone who could reach the Soul Sect realm at this age and kill a 13,000-year-old shadow snake be ordinary?

"I can see that this little brother is really good."

Ou Lie was obviously very satisfied with Xu Lingxiao.

Although he is young, he has a dark complexion and looks very steady, and... he seems to be very capable.

"By the way, Captain Ou, in a few days, please give one of your team's spots at Tianhun Academy for further studies to Ling Xiao."

Mu Xue suddenly gave another order,
"Ling Xiao is quite interested in soul guides."

"what?"

Mu Xue's words instantly changed the expressions of Ou Lie and Zhang Dudu.

This city guard is actually considered a new force in the Tianhun Empire.

Therefore, they attach great importance to soul guides.

After all, being able to master and use soul guides skillfully can greatly increase a soul master's combat power.

The new faction has now reached a temporary balance through its ongoing negotiations with the conservative faction.

A special soul guide training class has also been opened in Tianhun Academy.

As the main force of the new faction, the City Guard has a fixed number of students who are arranged to study at the Tianhun Academy every year.

It mainly focuses on the use of soul guides.

Of course, there are a lot of places available, but the number of city guards is also quite large. Once the quota allocation is diluted, it will be very limited.

So, is there a place to go to Tianhun Academy for further studies in soul guidance?

It is usually given to those who have made great contributions in the year or are city defense team members with outstanding performance. Newcomers like Xu Lingxiao, no matter how outstanding they are, have to wait a year before they can be awarded.

Moreover, you must perform outstandingly during this year in order to enter Tianhun Academy for further studies.

Now, Mu Xue demands that one of the places be forcibly given to Xu Lingxiao.

This undoubtedly infringes upon the interests of others.

A newcomer who has made no contribution took away a spot in their team.

This……

Why?
Just based on the sentence "Ling Xiao is quite interested in soul guides"?

How many brothers must have been disappointed by this?

"General, there's no explicit rule right now, but newcomers shouldn't be able to take this position..."

Ou Lie and Zhang Du were of course dissatisfied.

How can they report this to their brothers?

His perception of Xu Lingxiao also deteriorated at this moment, and Ou Lie even directly questioned Mu Xue's decision.

"Why? Why not?"

Mu Xue's tone also calmed down.
"You know there are no rules, so just adapt to the situation."

"Besides, fifteen or sixteen is a good age to study, so let's do this."

Mu Xue obviously had no intention of explaining to the two of them, and simply gave orders in a somewhat forceful manner. "Yes..."

Ou Lie felt helpless.

But we can only choose to comply.

"Okay, if there's nothing else, you can go back first."

Mu Xue waved her hand.

"Okay, we're fine now, Xu Lingxiao, come with us."

Ou Lie's attitude was a little bad, and he just waved to Xu Lingxiao.

"Yes."

Xu Lingxiao didn't react at first. How could the gap between the two people be so huge?

However, he soon figured it out.

It seems that this is because of the quota issue.

Along the way, Ou Lie and Zhang Dudu both looked unhappy.

Xu Lingxiao was also very tactful and didn't say anything.

He knew that neither of them was in a good mood.

Xu Lingxiao came to the City Guard because he wanted to learn how to use soul guides.

After all, in this era, soul masters still occupy a dominant position.

But no one can deny that soul guides have brought about tremendous changes to the world situation.

To put it bluntly.

Even if his martial soul failed to evolve, he could still create a ninth-level soul guide to kill Xu Zhan.

However, I didn't expect that the opportunity to learn soul guides that Mu Xue mentioned would actually require me to snatch the spot from others.

"gather!"

Soon, the three arrived at the camp.

Following Ou Lie's shout, a group of people quickly put on their clothes and gathered in front of Ou Lie.

There are seven people in total.

The first thing these people saw when they gathered was Xu Lingxiao.

"This is Xu Lingxiao. He will be a member of our team from now on."

Ou Lie announced in a somewhat dull tone.

Everyone's eyes turned to Xu Lingxiao who was standing aside.

"By the way, there is one more thing I want to announce."

Ou Lie's face became uglier and uglier.

"Seven days later, our team will be able to go to Tianhun Academy for further studies. Xu Lingxiao wants one of them."

"Why?"

The moment Ou Lie finished saying this, the team exploded.

A man with a scar on his face immediately questioned,
"He's a newcomer who hasn't contributed anything yet he's taking up our spot right away. Why?"

Another tall man also started to question,
"So this is a backdoor deal. How shameful! I won't obey this arrangement!"

"There are only two spots, why should we give him one? Who does he think he is?"

It is obviously against discipline for others to speak before the captain has finished speaking.

However, Ou Lie did not stop him.

The reason is simple: he also doesn't accept it.

At this moment, everyone glared at Xu Lingxiao.

This situation of being united against the outside world made Xu Lingxiao smile bitterly in his heart.

Is Mu Xue's special treatment of me considered digging a hole for myself?

Xu Lingxiao wiped his nose.

I don't know how to start.

As an outsider, speaking up at this time would only exacerbate the conflict...

"I don't accept it either!"

Finally, someone from the team stood up.

"I've worked so hard in the City Guard for a year, why should I give my place to a kid like you who hasn't even grown all his hair yet?!"

This is a young man in his twenties with an angry look on his face.

Ou Lie did not do anything to stop him, but just looked at the man quietly.

The attitude is very clear, this is tacit approval.

"Unless you can beat me!"

The man got Ou Lie's tacit consent and directly released his martial soul. Three soul rings appeared behind him one after another.

"My name is Huang Jian."

"Thirty-second level Soul Master!"
