Reborn in Liangshan: I built the strongest lineup

There are so many people coming to join Liangshan now!

While Li Yun was waiting with the people from Yishui County, he saw many people who had arrived after them.

And there were even more people before them.

Most importantly, these people are not coming alone; they all bring their families.

This shows that they have regarded Liangshan as the most trustworthy place, and are even willing to risk their entire family's life!

Li Yun had read some books, and he had never heard of any bandit group that could do this!

Those who can achieve this are not just ordinary outlaws, but beings who can carve out their own territory, become kings, or even change the world!

Is Liangshan destined to become that kind of place?

Just then, Li Yun suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a small disturbance in the queue ahead of them who were coming to Liangshan.

"Village chief, I'll go take a look."

Li Yun was also a chivalrous person, and when he encountered such a thing, his instinct was to step in and do something about it.

"Captain, be careful."

"It's alright, don't worry. This is the foot of Liangshan Mountain. How could the Liangshan soldiers not handle these things? I'm just going to lend a hand."

Li Yun comforted the old village chief, then picked up his broadsword and went up to him.

When they arrived at the entrance they had just come in through, Li Yun saw the unknown squad leader leading his men to protect the people. Not far from the entrance, a group of people who looked like bandits were gathered there.

"Is the threshold for Liangshan so high now? I have so many brothers, and I can't even become a leader? Aren't you trying to discourage the brothers in the underworld?"

One of the burly men, carrying a large, powerful broadsword, stepped forward and spoke.

"Brother, you're welcome to come up the mountain, but whether you can become the leader after you come up is not up to me. I can't guarantee that to you."

The unnamed captain of the Tiger-Taming Legion gripped his spear tightly and looked at the man, saying...

“Brother, the two or three hundred men under my command are all people who make a living on horseback all year round. I wouldn’t say their riding skills are first-rate, but they are at least skilled. My brother and I also have martial arts skills. A hundred or so men can’t get close to us. If you ask me to go up the mountain as an ordinary soldier, I’m a little unwilling.”

Another man stepped out from the ranks, carrying a long spear in his hand.

"Gentlemen, I have made myself very clear. What will happen after we go up the mountain is not something I can decide, and I cannot make any promises to you here."

The team leader was still patiently explaining:

“If you two are truly capable, you will soon be assigned suitable positions after joining the Liangshan Mountain. We only appoint people based on their talents and will never suppress talented brothers. But if you two insist on a guarantee before joining the mountain, then I really don’t have that right.”

For a moment, the two groups were deadlocked. The two men were unwilling to go up the mountain just like that, because they had made a big promise to their subordinates that they would definitely have a position in Liangshan. Now that you said that you couldn't guarantee their position, the two of them, who used to be leaders, might end up as lowly soldiers. How embarrassing would that be for them!

"Hmph, you two, everyone came up the mountain to live a better life, what are you two doing here? To continue to bully and oppress others? You think you can be leaders on Liangshan?"

Li Yun couldn't stand it any longer and came out carrying a broadsword:

"Your motives for joining this expedition are impure, yet you dare to cause trouble here? You call yourselves heroes? Aren't you ashamed!"

"Who do you think you are? Are you one of the Liangshan heroes?"

The man wielding the broadsword saw Li Yun and immediately turned around to curse him.

"I'm just an ordinary citizen who just arrived in Liangshan today, but I just can't stand the way you all are!"

Li Yun said with a smile.

"Brother, let us Liangshan people handle this matter..."

The unnamed squad leader attempted to stop Li Yun, but Li Yun waved his hand, indicating that it wasn't necessary.

"Brothers, you have a heavy task to do, you need to take care of all the people, leave this guy to me."

After saying that, Li Yun, wielding his broadsword, engaged in combat with the man wielding the broadsword!

These two are going to have quite a fight!

Back and forth, like a tiger turning over, like an eagle spreading its wings! One strikes a head-grabbing slash, adhering to the finest techniques; the other blocks with his entire body, always with a deadly move! One takes a T-step to rush in, the other takes a double flying kick to escape!

The two fought for more than forty rounds in the open space at the entrance of Liangshan, with neither gaining the upper hand!

"Hero! Wait a minute, what's your name?"

The man with the long spear immediately came out and called for a halt.

"What? You can't beat me one by one, so you want two of you to come at me together? And you still boast that a hundred or so of yourselves can't get close to me? And you want to go up the mountain and become the leader?"

Li Yun parried the whirlwind blades, jumped out of the circle, and said with a hint of sarcasm.

"What did you say? Go ahead and have another match if you dare!"

The man wielding the wind-splashing knife was enraged when he heard Li Yun's words. He grabbed the knife and prepared to attack again, but was stopped by his brothers.

"That's enough, Lao Jin. Aren't you ashamed enough already?"

"Old Huang! Don't stop me!"

"Hehe, come on, both of you, what do I, Li Yun, have to fear!"

Li Yun looked at the two guys with a smile, not afraid at all.

"Brother Li Yun, right? I am Huang Yue, and this is my brother Jin Ding. We were wrong just now, so please apologize."

Huang Yue pulled Jin Ding back and then apologized to Li Yun.

"Old Huang, you!"

Jin Ding didn't know why his brother had to apologize.

“Old Jin, we really didn’t do the right thing. Liangshan’s ordinary people who just joined the mountain have martial arts skills that are about the same as ours. What face do we have to ask for the leadership position here?”

Huang Yue said to Jin Ding.

"If we keep insisting on demanding it, then we're just throwing our pride away!"

"Well, you can't just be an ordinary soldier!"

Jin Ding was still somewhat unwilling.

“This brother is about the same level as you. He’s just an ordinary villager from the mountains. Why can’t we do it?”

Huang Yue persuaded Jin Ding.

"Why did we come to Liangshan? Wasn't it to accomplish something great? Since there are so many masters on Liangshan, let's compete with them fairly!"

"We brothers were able to start from scratch and raise these brothers at Fenglong Mountain, so why can't we do it at Liangshan?"

“You’re quite reasonable. Yes, that’s exactly right. You two go up the mountain first. I don’t think Liangshan is the kind of place that oppresses people. You two are capable, why are you afraid of just being ordinary soldiers?”

Li Yun's opinion of Huang Yue changed.

Although Huang Yue, who wields a spear, didn't make a move earlier, he should be about the same level as Jin Ding, who wields a broadsword, or even stronger.

Most importantly, this person knew how to assess the situation, and he was able to correct his mistakes, know when to advance and retreat, and abide by the rules of the martial arts world. He did not join forces with Jin Ding to deal with him.

"Hmph, who's afraid? Let me tell you, in my entire life, I, Jin Ding, don't even know how to write the word 'fear'."

Jin Ding seemed to be persuaded as well, and he said to Li Yun:

"We'll continue fighting after we get up the mountain!"

Li Yun did not respond. He was only there to see off his fellow villagers. Whether he would go up the mountain or not was still up for debate!

"Who dares to cause trouble in my Liangshan!"

Just as the two sides were about to reach an agreement, dozens of sentries suddenly rushed out of the mountains on the other side, led by none other than Xu Ning, who was on duty that day.

"Commander Xu, it's like this..."

The unnamed team leader was overjoyed to see Xu Ning arrive and immediately stepped forward to recount the events that had just transpired.

"Oh? My name is Xu Ning. Thank you in advance, Brother Li Yun."

After hearing this, Xu Ning first clasped his hands in a fist salute to Li Yun, then said to Jin Ding and Huang Yue:

"It's a good thing that you two brothers have brought your entire stronghold to join us. I understand that you want a leadership position. However, Liangshan is indeed not what it used to be, and the requirements are higher now. But rest assured, in Liangshan, as long as you have real skills, you will never be buried!"

"If you two are willing to trust me, Xu Ning, I will make a promise right here and now. After you two go up the mountain, I will personally recommend you to my elder brother. How about that?"
