48: Promoted to colonel, amazing military exploits

Soon, with the addition of the abnormal Xun Xiuyuan, the war in Outpost 99 subsided.

Xun Xiuyuan also smiled from ear to ear as he looked at his panel.

host: Xun Xiuyuan

Age: 16

Realm: Ninth-grade Immaculate Realm (244,060,000 / 1,000,000,000)

Mental Power: 2640+

Martial Arts: Berserk Blade Technique (Perfected), Mystic Steps (Perfected), Explosive Ignition Art (this skill cannot be upgraded), Heaven Piercing Slash (this skill cannot be upgraded), Copper Wall Iron Barrier (Perfected), Blood Escape (this skill cannot be upgraded), Breath Concealment Technique (Perfected), Soul Pierce (this skill cannot be upgraded), Blood God Body (First Layer)

Equipment: Dingguang, qianyuan battle armor, five colors, hundred battle blade, illusory armor, wind cloud boots, void piercing needle, soul stabilizing pearl.

Lottery Draws: 123

In less than half a day of the siege battles at the two fortresses, the exotic beast value increased by over 100 million.

One should know that Explosive Ignition Art, Heaven Piercing Slash, and void piercing needle all consume exotic beast value. Currently, Xun Xiuyuan needs 500,000 exotic beast value to recover his qi and blood once.

It is easy to imagine how many exotic beasts Xun Xiuyuan killed in the two battles.

Seeing that the battle at Outpost 99 had subsided, Guo Longfei walked up to Xun Xiuyuan and asked, "Are you still capable? If so, let's head to the next fortress."

The captain's order had already come down: within Xun Xiuyuan's physical endurance, kill as many Transcendent Realm exotic beasts as possible.

It should be known that there are many mid-level exotic beasts, but Transcendent Realm ones are still very important. Killing many Immaculate Realm exotic beasts is not as good as killing one Transcendent Realm exotic beast.

Of course Xun Xiuyuan was capable; his mouth was still wide open with a smile. Where else could he find such a good opportunity?

"I'm more capable now than ever before."

The two quickly reached an agreement and once again rushed to the next fortress.

Legion Headquarters.

Xie Qinglong beamed with joy: "This Xun Xiuyuan must join my Special Operations Team, absolutely must."

Xie Yunzhou sipped his tea, glanced at Xie Qinglong, and sneered, "Xun Xiuyuan is Nan Qiao's boyfriend, did you know?"

Xie Qinglong was speechless on the spot. Xun Xiuyuan was Nan Qiao's boyfriend? He really didn't know about this.

"He's the boyfriend of the Xie Family's little princess, haha. Captain Xie, it'll probably be very difficult for your Special Operations Team to get this person. The Special Operations Team has such a high casualty rate, and the little princess's hurdle won't be easy to pass."

Lu Changkong was very happy to see Xie Qinglong at a disadvantage. In Qianlong City, the Lu Family and the Xie Family have always had a good relationship, and it has been so for hundreds of years.

Xie Yunzhou said leisurely, "If you want that kid to join the Special Operations Team, there's no need for such trouble. You just need to say that the Special Operations Team has an endless supply of exotic beasts to kill. I estimate that kid will be 80% willing to join the Special Operations Team."

Xie Qinglong was puzzled: "Why?"

"Because that kid has an unusual hobby, or rather, a craving, for killing exotic beasts, and it's the kind that eradicates them completely."

"Then I'll try it later."

At this moment, Xie Qinglong's wristband rang again. After glancing at it, he said, "It's the sixth fortress. That Transcendent Realm exotic beast also didn't escape. Xun Xiuyuan should have a special secret technique that can affect the sea of consciousness. Captain Nine reported that each time a Transcendent Realm being was killed, there was a clear moment of mental trance beforehand."

Xie Yunzhou nodded: "That should be the case, otherwise it wouldn't have been possible. There are very few offensive soul-type secret techniques among humans, and I wonder where he got this one? This kid has quite a few secret techniques, and weapons too. A Transcendent Realm body has already surpassed mortals, with the body strengthened by the power of heaven and earth, yet it was still killed. I estimate that this kid's weapon is at least peak ninth-grade to cause effective damage to a Transcendent Realm being."

Lu Changkong took over the conversation and said, "A peak ninth-grade weapon? I wonder which master's masterpiece it is."

Xie Shan had been silent ever since he heard everyone discussing Xun Xiuyuan being Xie Nan Qiao's boyfriend, until his wristband rang.

He looked at the battle report again. The exotic beasts at other fortresses had slowly retreated, and then he looked at Xun Xiuyuan's unparalleled battle record.

"The exotic beasts at other fortresses have all retreated. Xun Xiuyuan's contributions are indispensable this time. Let's promote him to colonel exceptionally," Xie Shan slowly said.

Having come to a realization, Xie Shan no longer had any intention of suppressing Xun Xiuyuan. The old man was right. If I can't suppress him, I'll support him. There's nothing to be embarrassed about among family.

The others had no objections. The entire city belonged to the Xie and Lu Families. Let alone a colonel, even a general was possible. Whatever made him happy.

Xun Xiuyuan quickly flew onto Guo Longfei's aircraft: "Let's go, Brother Guo, next place, next place."

Guo Longfei saw Xun Xiuyuan's excited state and didn't know what to say. The rest of the team were already exhausted and collapsed at the third fortress they had supported.

Only Xun Xiuyuan remained full of energy, while he himself had completely become a driver, unable to participate in the battle due to depleted qi and blood once they arrived.

"There are no more places. The exotic beast army has retreated. I'll take you back to Fortress 100," Guo Longfei said directly.

Xun Xiuyuan's face fell upon hearing this. That was it? He had only supported a few fortresses. Weren't the exotic beasts attacking forty fortresses?

At this time, a post appeared under the official account of the Qianlong Legion.

Titled: Colonel Xun Xiuyuan!

Below it was Xun Xiuyuan's brief introduction, very simple: age, realm, nothing more was said.

A very simple title, but the comments below were astonishingly numerous.

"Colonel? An Immaculate Realm colonel? Aren't all colonels Transcendent Realm? Doesn't that mean this Xun Xiuyuan will become a general directly when he reaches the Transcendent Realm?"

"Exactly, I wonder what kind of person he is that even the exotic beasts are asking for him from us?"

"I just read the official report on this exotic beast siege. The number of fallen soldiers reached 100,000. It seems the cause of the war was for this Xun Xiuyuan."

"Our fortress wasn't attacked. I heard that this war seems to have happened because of this Xun Xiuyuan."

"People upstairs, please drain the water from your brains. Is there still any possibility of peace between us and the exotic beasts? The exotic beasts wanted to fight, they just found an excuse."

"I'm from Outpost 99. I saw Xun Xiuyuan, a handsome guy. One slash, truly just one slash, and the Transcendent Realm being attacking our fortress was killed on the spot. This Xun Xiuyuan is definitely our military's secret superweapon."

"The statement upstairs is probably problematic. An Immaculate Realm being killed a Transcendent Realm being with one slash. If your statement is correct, then my eyes are problematic."

"I am the commander of Fortress Number 96. When Xun Xiuyuan came to support my fortress, he didn't use one slash to kill the Transcendent Realm exotic beast, he used two slashes. I'm certain."

"Holy cow, even a fortress commander is vouching for him. Is this Xun Xiuyuan real?"

Just as the entire legion was enthusiastically discussing this post, another post appeared.

Titled: Xun Xiuyuan Joins the Army for One Month, Military Merits Break Through Three Million.

Below it listed Xun Xiuyuan's verifiable kill records.

Especially highlighted in red were the feats of killing seven Transcendent Realm beings in this exotic beast siege.

As soon as this post came out, all those who questioned him fell silent, and Xun Xiuyuan immediately became a hero of the Qianlong Army.

In less than a few hours, all the fortresses, including the legion in the city, knew that a genius who could kill Transcendent Realm beings while in the Immaculate Realm had appeared in the Qianlong Army.

At this time, Xie Shan was sitting in his office, and Xie Lin was sitting beside him, casually crossing his legs and drinking tea.

"Big brother, how did you come around? You want to promote this Xun Xiuyuan?" Xie Lin asked with an unhurried air.

Xie Shan's expression was calm: "Just reporting the facts, there's no promoting or not promoting."

"Reporting the facts? You're not going to tell me that all of this is true, are you? An Immaculate Realm being killed seven Transcendent Realm beings in one battle?"

Xie Lin asked incredulously.

Xie Shan didn't speak, just looked steadily at Xie Lin.

Xie Lin was silent for a long time, then put away his playful expression: "If the Lingtian Relic open this year, I'll be the captain!"

After saying that, he left Xie Shan's office.
