Protect Our Clan Leader

This is the content of the regular legion leader graduation exam, simple and direct.

Regular legion leader graduates, once forcibly given a half-immortal artifact, can roll into the military for training, and will most likely only reach the rank of deputy legion leader in the future.

However, exceptional legion leader graduates can receive extra rewards, not to mention that their path to becoming a legion leader will be smoother.

“Besides the half-immortal artifact, just throw in an immortal-grade bloodline enhancement fluid.” Wang Ying Xuan said, “Artifact Spirit, quickly initiate the Group Army Marshal-level graduation exam.”

The rewards she received needed to be handed over for family distribution, and since the prizes in this pool would eventually be taken, she chose casually.

“As you wish, Lady Wang Yingxuan.”

Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao even changed the way it addressed her, speaking with more respect.

With those words, the next mode was activated.

“Please select a random opponent…”

“Your opponent this time is the Divine Martial First Corps Marshal Si Kou Changqing, who excels in healing and defense. Please be cautious in your engagement. Based on your performance, an assessment will be made of you.”

“Please select a random terrain…”

“Your battlefield terrain is the [Exorcism Plains Battlefield].”

After a series of prompt sounds, Wang Yingxuan’s vision blurred, and she was already in a different place.

On the dark and gloomy Exorcism Plains Battlefield, it seemed as if a catastrophic war had taken place, with scars of battle everywhere.

However, the old war had not yet ended, and a new war was about to begin.

Wars at the group army level differ completely from those at the legion level, as they involve considerations of both tactics and strategy.

And Wang Yingxuan could not, like in the last round, charge directly with the stature of a True Immortal to face the opponent. This time, her opponent was also a True Immortal; once entangled by the other True Immortal, she would fall into heavy encirclement, eventually being worn down to death.

The prowess of a True Immortal in the True Immortal Realm was also limited to a certain extent.

Therefore, she properly set up formations, studying the map of the exorcism battlefield, and began to maneuver her troops, setting up defenses in various directions.

This showcased Wang Yingxuan’s individual abilities and the uniqueness of the War Codex.

The War Codex needs to grow within war, and after over two hundred years of conflict, Wang Yingxuan’s use of the War Codex, her grasp of the situation, and her control of combat timing had all reached a level far beyond the past.

This war lasted for more than ten days.

Through her strong command abilities and the advantageous mid-stage True Immortal strength she had over Si Kou Changqing, Wang Yingxuan gradually eroded the opponent’s forces, eventually engaging in a decisive battle with numerically superior troops.

When the battle ended, Si Kou Changqing’s troops were completely annihilated.

And Wang Yingxuan’s group army ended with only 40% remaining.

“This is a glorious victory.”

As the curtain fell on the battle, Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao spoke excitedly: “Congratulations, Lady Wang Yingxuan, you have defeated your opponent Si Kou Changqing, and have passed the [Group Army Marshal Graduation Exam]. Your exam performance is exceptionally outstanding, earning you the title of [Pro-Marshal Talented Graduate].”

“With this title, once you join the military, you will automatically enter the quasi-marshal reserves.”

“Additionally, you will receive an immortal artifact (remaining quantity 10). Due to your exceptionally outstanding exam performance, you may select two additional treasures from the prize pool below as rewards, with the genius graduate-exclusive rewards limited to one choice.”

“Prize pool as follows: A large bottle of Chaos Essence (remaining quantity 2), Immortal Scripture (remaining quantity 3), Chaos Origin (a small strand, about three threads) (remaining quantity 3), Chaos Spirit Stone (remaining quantity 5), Immortal Modification Essence Version (remaining quantity 2), Half-immortal Puppet (remaining quantity 3), Saint Emperor’s Wrath (remaining quantity 5)”

“Half-step Sacred Artifact (remaining quantity 2) (genius graduate exclusive) Reincarnation Holy Fruit (remaining quantity 2) (genius graduate exclusive)”

A grand array of rewards, and the quality was indeed excellent.

“Sister Jiu Xiao, how do you distinguish between a regular marshal graduate and a genius graduate?” Wang Yingxuan asked.

“Generally, if the result is a draw or with a slight advantage or disadvantage, it will be rated as [Regular Graduate]. If you can defeat your opponent, you will be rated as [Outstanding Graduate]. If you can win with a margin of over 30%, you are a [Genius Graduate],” Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao answered truthfully.

After pondering briefly, Wang Yingxuan said, “Besides the immortal artifact that’s forcibly given, I choose the reward of the [Immortal Scripture] and the half-step sacred artifact. Oh, by the way, is there a gun-type weapon among the half-step sacred artifacts?”

“There isn’t… only one half-sacred sword and one half-sacred shield,” Jiu Xiao answered weakly.

“Then just give me one at random. For the immortal artifact, I want a gun-type immortal artifact,” Wang Yingxuan replied with an indifferent attitude.

“As you wish, Lady Wang Yingxuan.”

Jiu Xiao said while retrieving the rewards from the Space Treasury, among which was a gun burning with fierce flames for the immortal artifact, radiating an imposing aura and exuding a domineering presence.

Wang Fugui observed this scene and couldn’t help but let out a sigh: “The rewards are indeed a bit lacking. But this is expected, as it surely isn’t easy for Bao Sheng to collect these top-tier rewards.”

In fact, the most challenging part is the mere three Immortal Scriptures, as the quantity is just too little.

“There’s no helping it with the Immortal Scripture,” Wang Baosheng also sighed, “These few Immortal Scriptures were recovered from fallen True Immortals.”

“Next would be the hero mode, right?” Wang Fugui asked.

Upon hearing Wang Fugui bring this up, the expressions of everyone present started to turn somewhat peculiar, gazing at Bao Sheng with a mixed sense of smile and ridicule.

“Ahem!” Wang Baosheng awkwardly turned his head.

He blamed himself for being too “young” back then, never imagining this day would come.

As expected.

Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao excitedly continued: “Lady Wang Yingxuan, with your title of [Genius Marshal Graduate], you qualify to challenge the Hidden Hero Mode, directly facing the great Divine Martial Saint Emperor. Should you win, your name will be listed on the Hero Board, and you will receive an ultimate reward.”

Upon hearing this, Bao Sheng’s expression became increasingly awkward.

He had listed himself as the boss of the Hidden Hero Mode back then, sweeping away many challengers, even feeling proud of it. But now, he wished he could travel back in time and give his past self a hard lesson.

It was too embarrassing~

Just thinking of the impending challenges from numerous members of the Wang family, he wished he could find a hole to hide in.

Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now.

In the simulation cabin, when Wang Yingxuan heard Artifact Spirit Jiu Xiao’s words, her eyes instantly lit up.

The phase of challenging the Divine Martial Saint Emperor had finally arrived!

She had been looking forward to this moment for a very, very long time!
