Godslayer: My Forbidden Ruins Master

Half an hour later.

With her face bruised and swollen, Shen Qingzhu was being carried by several new recruits, looking utterly miserable.

He was completely overwhelmed by the four members of the Masked Squad. King Mask didn't intervene, otherwise he would have fared even worse.

The arrogant and cocky guy was beaten down in front of everyone, and the new recruits who tried to help Shen Qingzhu were also beaten black and blue.

They looked utterly miserable.

"Hey bro! How come Lu Xuan and his buddies... look completely unharmed?"

"I'm so surprised," said one of the new recruits who was helping the guy.

They thought the Masked Squad had always been this powerful.

But to my surprise, Lu Xuan and the others all looked... completely normal, not at all like they'd been beaten up.

So, it seems... only their group got beaten up?

Shen Qingzhu opened her swollen panda eyes, feeling extremely depressed, but she quickly figured it out.

"Damn it! These guys must have surrendered during the fight! A bunch of spineless cowards!"

"So that's how it is! Hmph, spineless cowards, we'd rather be beaten to death than surrender! You arrogant bro!!"

"Yes, yes, yes! A person can be defeated, but never knocked down!"

"Agree!"

……

Shen Qingzhu and her close friends were furious.

The entire group of recruits declared the challenge a failure.

On the martial arts stage.

All the instructors had come out, and next to them stood the masked squad, looking quite spirited.

Commander Yuan Gang stood at the very front, a fleeting smile playing on his lips.

His gaze swept over the students below the stage, quickly passing over Lu Xuan and the others.

"I am extremely disappointed in you! Extremely, extremely disappointed!"

"You keep claiming to be geniuses, but you've seen the result: 240 against 5, and you didn't even get a single mask off. Most of you didn't even touch the hem of their clothes."

"Where do you get the audacity to be so arrogant? Don't you all consider yourselves geniuses? Why are you all so silent now?"

……

Chief Instructor Yuan Gang shouted.

Extremely enjoyable!

This initial show of force had some minor flaws, but the merits outweighed the flaws.

At least the vast majority of new recruits were truly intimidated; they lost the arrogance and conceit they had when they first joined the ranks.

Even a troublemaker like Shen Qingzhu stood obediently in the line and listened to the lecture.

Yuan Gang was very satisfied.

After conducting a thorough ideological critique and reform of all the trainees, and seeing that almost all of them showed a good attitude in admitting their mistakes,

Yuan Gang softened his tone and explained the content of this training camp.

The entire training period is one year and divided into two parts.

The first part is pure physical training.

Throughout the training camp, the forbidden energy within all trainees will be forcibly suppressed, causing them to become ordinary people and unable to use special powers.

And they will train them to the point of exhaustion.

Let them experience absolute pain, pain they will never forget for the rest of their lives.

Part 2 is about tactical theory and the practice of forbidden ruins, but you'll need to get through Part 1 first before you can do this part.

Hearing his words, all the trainees in the audience felt heavy-hearted.

Shen Qingzhu, on the other hand, was filled with fighting spirit and vowed to change herself and become stronger here!

They even defeated the masked team!

"Enjoy these last precious moments, newbies, because starting tomorrow... will be your nightmare!!"

After delivering his speech, Yuan Gang led the instructors and the masked squad away, announcing their disbandment.

……

"It's finally over. I'm exhausted today,"

Baili Pangpang plopped down on the ground.

Many of the new recruits present also breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the ground.

They were all the cream of the crop from other teams.

Before this, he always thought he was a genius who was superior to ordinary people!

But now.

This pride was shattered completely.

They only realized upon arriving here that they were not even as good as ordinary people, and were so ordinary that they were ignored throughout the entire training camp.

"Boneless!"

Just as Lu Xuan and his group were about to leave, Shen Qingzhu, with a bruised and swollen face, was being carried by several of his underlings. She deliberately walked past him and coldly tossed out a remark.

"What did you say?"

Cao Yuan immediately stepped forward, his expression icy cold, as if he were about to make a move.

"I call you spineless cowards! You surrendered to the Masked Squad without even fighting! Humph!"

Shen Qingzhu stubbornly insisted.

"Uh?"

Lu Xuan was both amused and exasperated. So that's why he came all this way to scold him.

"Shut up!!"

It was Molly who spoke first.

The tall, mature woman immediately drew her knife and held it to Shen Qingzhu's neck, saying, "You have no right to say that to him."

"Who are you to him? What business is it of yours if I talk to Lu Xuan? And you too!"

Shen Qingzhu quipped to Molly and Cao Yuan.

"I'm nobody to him. A newbie like you has no right to talk to Lu Xuan like that! He's far superior to you!"

Molly said coldly. Cao Yuan wanted to be a fiercely protective husband, but he was clearly not good at expressing himself and didn't get a chance to speak.

"Someone who can't even fight the Masked Squad..."

"Lu Xuan challenged the Masked Captain Wang Mian in a one-on-one fight. If you like trash talk, let's have a one-on-one fight when you're better."

Molly said coldly.

"Uh!?"

Shen Qingzhu was dumbfounded.

No.

Didn't Lu Xuan and his team just surrender?

What does it mean to fight a captain-level opponent one-on-one? Does it mean... they went head-to-head with the Masked Squad in a 5v5 battle? But why am I the only one in such a bad state? They didn't have a single scratch?

Shen Qingzhu was dumbfounded.

"Don't talk to idiots, let's go."

Lu Xuan sighed helplessly, "By the way, Molly, are we still going to arrange the one-on-one duel?"

"No thanks, I'm no match for you, but... I'll definitely catch up to you!!"

Molly stared intently at Lu Xuan with her beautiful eyes.

this moment.

She had already made Lu Xuan her life goal in the training camp.

Catch up with this monster, even surpass him!

That was his only goal here, because the monstrous genius in front of him was someone he could actually see, unlike those masked figures who were too fantastical and legendary.

Whether it was facing off against the king in a clash of sword energy, or finally summoning a heroic spirit to instantly kill the demon-possessed Cao Yuan with a single strike.

Molly knew perfectly well that Lu Xuan was absolutely the strongest in the entire recruit camp, without exception.

Even the divine agent Lin Qiye next to him couldn't compare, and that guy had clearly already acquiesced to Lu Xuan as the master.

I hope you work hard! Keep it up!

Lu Xuan smiled and left with Lin Qiye, Cao Yuan, and Fatty.

Only Shen Qingzhu remained, disheveled in the wind.

I've been ignored again?

Grass!

Chief Instructor's Office.

Yuan Gang met with Wang alone.

“I know what the leader wants to ask. Lu Xuan… possesses the ability to restrict forbidden realms, even divine realms. At that moment, my divine realm was restricted. Even though I unsealed my strength, I am not absolutely certain that I will not be affected by this ability.”

"Even if we disregard everything else, just this one point alone—the ability to seal the Divine Ruins—makes Lu Xuan... the strongest recruit, and he will undoubtedly become a special captain-level genius in the future!"

Wang Mian took a deep breath and gave the newcomer the highest praise he had ever given in his life!
