In the same year, the training camp conducted its first elimination round.

Twenty boys were released into the mountains, each given only a dagger and three days' worth of rations.

Seven days later, whoever can bring back the designated token will remain.

Losers are eliminated.

As for where they will go after being eliminated, no one has said.

After entering the mountains, Lu Changsheng did not rush to look for the token.

He first found a water source and lay in wait for a whole day.

The following evening, three trainees clashed over a token.

Lu Changsheng did not make a move immediately.

He is waiting.

When the three of them had consumed more than half of their soul power.

Until one of them was seriously injured.

The other two thought the outcome was already decided.

Then he drew his sword from the shadows.

"First Soul Skill, Black Edge Thrust."

In an instant, a black sword beam pierced through the shoulder of one of them.

"Second Soul Skill, Shadow Step."

Immediately afterwards, Lu Changsheng moved closer to another person, pressing the blade of his sword against their throat.

"Token of affection".

The man turned pale and finally chose to hand over the token.

Lu Changsheng did not kill him.

It's not out of kindness, but because it's unnecessary.

Killing people doesn't earn you extra points in the training camp.

Completing the mission and returning alive is the most important thing.

When Lu Changsheng returned to the camp with the token, the instructor glanced at him.

"Number 17, approved."

Lu Changsheng lowered his head and stood aside.

At that moment, the system light screen flickered slightly in front of him.

[The villain's mission progress has been accelerated.]

[You have begun to adapt to the Dark Blade training.]

[The villain's reputation has risen.]

Lu Changsheng's heart stirred.

It seems that this time, he has gone further than in the first simulation.

Time continued to move forward.

At the age of thirteen, Lu Changsheng became one of the ten most outstanding teenagers in the training camp.

At the age of fourteen, he received his first real mission.

The mission target is a Soul Master who has defected from the Spirit Hall.

The man took away a list of branch halls, intending to pledge allegiance to a certain noble faction.

Lu Changsheng's team consisted of five people, and they were ordered to hunt down their target.

This was Lu Changsheng's first real participation in a mission for the Spirit Hall.

…………

In the night rain.

An abandoned post station.

The defected Soul Master was hiding inside the house, with two hired Soul Masters as guards.

The captain originally planned to launch a frontal assault.

Lu Changsheng objected, saying:

"The goal is to become a Soul Master."

"If we launch a frontal assault, we will lose men."

The captain looked at him coldly.

"So what do you want to do?"

Lu Changsheng looked at the stables behind the post station.

"Set it on fire and force them out."

"Then we'll launch a surprise attack on them."

The captain frowned and said:

"This is a mission from the Spirit Hall, not a bandit raid."

Lu Changsheng said calmly:

"Dark Blade only cares about the result."

The captain remained silent for a moment, then finally agreed.

Half an hour later, the post station caught fire.

Thick smoke mixed with rainwater rose up, forcing the three people inside the house to rush out.

Lu Changsheng had long been hiding in the shadows.

His target was not the Soul Master, but one of the guards.

"First Soul Skill, Black Edge Thrust."

The sword's edge pierced through the rain.

Before the guard could even unleash his soul skill, he was struck in the throat with a single sword strike.

The blood was washed away by the rain.

Lu Changsheng didn't stop. He activated his second soul skill, Shadow Step, and his figure swept past the corner of the wall.

The second sword pierced the lower back of another guard.

Within moments, the two guards fell to the ground.

The defector Soul Master's expression changed drastically.

"Martial Soul Palace!"

He roared and released his martial spirit.

But after losing his guards, he was surrounded.

The captain held the enemy at bay while Lu Changsheng flanked and assassinated from behind.

In the end, the rogue Soul Master was stabbed through the knee by Lu Changsheng's sword and fell to his knees in the mud.

The captain stepped forward and placed the sword against the target's neck.

Where is the list?

Upon hearing this, the defector Soul Master gave a bitter laugh and said:

"If I tell you, will you let me go?"

The captain did not answer.

Lu Changsheng spoke up.

"will not."

The defector Soul Master was taken aback.

Lu Changsheng walked up to him and whispered:

"But if you don't speak, you'll die very slowly."

Chapter 12 I never expected that this time, I would have to meet you as an enemy.

The rain was very loud.

The firelight at the post station flickered.

Lu Changsheng's face appeared particularly cold in the firelight.
