Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

Chapter 125 Arrival, Registration, Observation

"Everyone is taking this assessment very seriously; basically, all the well-known people have come. However, I only want to remind you to pay attention to two people."

O

After thinking for a moment, Zhao Wenjie said, "Zhou Cang, the second-tier lord of Xucheng, is skilled in heavy infantry legions and has a very strong ability to attack from the front."

"Another one is Su Qingyuan from Jinling, a first-tier lord who has recently risen to fame. However, her specific strength is very mysterious. All that is known is that she once defeated a second-tier lord who was of a higher tier."

Upon hearing this, everyone was taken aback.

That second-tier lord Zhou Cang is one thing, but what the hell is that first-tier Su Qingyuan?

The idea of ​​a Tier 1 fighter fighting a Tier 2 fighter seems like a fantasy; the difference in leadership stats alone is enough to drive anyone to despair.

Then, the others couldn't help but look at Luo Xuan.

In their view, with the two orange-tier units under Moxia, they also have such an opportunity by achieving a kill on the first encounter.

However, regardless of the circumstances, everyone knows how difficult it is for a first-tier player to defeat a second-tier player, so they all silently remembered the name Su Qingyuan.

Seeing the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, Zhao Wenjie once again instructed, "This assessment has gathered the best experts from across the province, and there are many strong individuals among them. You must not be careless during the assessment."

"Of course, there's no need to be overly self-deprecating. You are also among the best in Suzhou. Be confident, but don't be complacent or arrogant."

"That's right, that's right, we're strong too. We don't need to boost others' morale and diminish our own, right, Luo Xuan?" Shen Ce shouted.

The somewhat dull atmosphere was brightened up a bit by Shen Ce's intervention.

"That's right, everyone should just do their best and not put too much pressure on themselves," Luo Xuan said when asked.

"By the way, how long will Captain Zhao's assessment take? If it takes too long, things in the game might become difficult to handle!"

Shen Ce changed the subject, and Zhao Wenjie understood, so they stopped talking about anything too heavy.

"Don't worry, this assessment will only take three to five days at most, it won't take up too much of your time."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xuan felt reassured. Including the previous three days of training, it would only take about a week, so it shouldn't cause too much of a delay.

And so, amidst casual conversation, the minibus sped along the highway.

About an hour later, a vast complex of buildings with solemn and dignified silver-gray exteriors appeared before everyone's eyes.

We have arrived at the Provincial Two Elements Division Lord's Trial Center.

The minibus slowly came to a stop in the parking lot under guidance. Through the windows, people could see many staff members of the Ryougi Shi dressed in dark gray uniforms.

"Alright, everyone get ready to get off the bus. Stay close to me and don't wander off."

After the minibus came to a stop, Zhao Wenjie called out and then got off the bus first.

Upon seeing this, the nearest staff member quickly came over.

Zhao Wenjie made contact with the other party, and then the other party turned around and led the way.

"Alright, let's go register our information now. Make sure you have your things with you, and don't forget them."

As Zhao Wenjie spoke, he turned and followed the staff.

Luo Xuan and the others followed, carrying suitcases or backpacks.

Luo Xuan followed in the middle of the group, constantly observing his surroundings.

The Jinling Liangyi Division Trial Center was far larger than it had appeared from afar.

Several silver-gray skyscrapers are arranged in a huge square formation, with a large open area between them that has been transformed into a free martial arts arena.

"This is a simulated training ground specifically designed for inter-unit combat. The ground is paved with a special type of rock crystal, which can withstand the impact of inter-unit combat and can be quickly reset and restored after the battle."

The introduction by the staff member acting as the guide reached everyone's ears.

Luo Xuan noticed that around the training ground, there were more than a dozen very tall holographic bulletin boards that were displaying the trial rules and precautions.

Luo Xuan and his group walked along a wide corridor to the registration hall. There were people on both sides of the entrance checking the identity information of each team meticulously.

"The Suzhou team consists of six people: team leader Zhao Wenjie, members Lin Mufeng, Ding Qisong... and Luo Xuan. This is correct."

As the group entered the hall, they were immediately struck by the bustling noise inside.

Some city teams that arrived early had already completed their registration and were chatting in small groups in the hall. When they saw Luo Xuan and his group enter, they all turned their attention to them.

Zhao Wenjie remained expressionless, walking proudly at the front and leading the group toward the registration desk.

"Don't look around, line up to register first." Zhao Wenjie's words clearly reached everyone's ears in the noisy hall.

Following the regulations, everyone registered their territories with registration numbers and their lord's mark, and then received their corresponding trial bracelets.

The registration process was not complicated, and soon everyone completed the registration.

"The bracelet is your trial token, which records your trial points and serves as your pass to enter and exit various locations. Please keep it safe, as it will not be replaced if lost."

Zhao Wenjie repeatedly emphasized this point in front of everyone, especially the last sentence: losing it is equivalent to losing the qualification to participate in the competition.

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions tightened, and they all put on their bracelets.

Luo Xuan raised his hand and looked at the black bracelet on his wrist. It felt slightly cool to the touch and had almost no weight. There was a line of small, faintly glowing words on it: Su Cheng 06.

The others were the same as Luo Xuan, except for the numbers on their wrists.

Next, Zhao Wenjie led them to a staff member who then guided them to their rest room to put away their luggage.

Similar to the Liangyi Temple in Suzhou, this place also offers hotel-like rooms, one room per person.

After settling their luggage, Zhao Wenjie told everyone that they would have free time.

"However, we can't have any private conflicts. Today is for registration and for you to get familiar with the place, so don't cause any trouble."

Zhao Wenjie reminded him.

"What about you, Captain Zhao? Aren't you coming with us?" Shen Ce asked, puzzled.

"You have your own assessments and trials to prepare for, and I naturally have my own work to do as well."

Zhao Wenjie waved his hand, signaling everyone to leave.

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

"In that case, everyone should go about their own business for now, and we can chat again at lunchtime," Lin Mufeng said.

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and then dispersed.

Luo Xuan didn't rush to the martial arts training area he had seen on the way. Instead, he took a navigation map and leisurely strolled around the outer areas of the three major trial areas.

Area One is a large plain with little terrain undulation, which appears to be used for large-scale legion battles.

Considering the first assessment item, Luo Xuan frowned slightly, feeling that he was at a slight disadvantage here.

A lord like him, who takes the route of elite troops, is best suited to fight in areas with complex terrain.

The more complex the terrain, the more the combat effectiveness of elite troops can be demonstrated.

Luo Xuan continued looking down, and then came the second field area.

Compared to the plains terrain of No. 1, No. 2 is a distinctly hilly terrain.

From a distance, Luo Xuan could see the dense woodlands and streams, making it an ideal location for ambush operations.

Next is Zone 3, which is in the style of ruins, filled with building remains and various underground passages, which will severely test the adaptability of the troops.

Near the third field, Luo Xuan unexpectedly encountered a young man.

The other person had a cold and hard expression, and a burly build. He stood in the distance like a young general, his gaze sweeping across Zone 3, as if observing the upcoming battlefield.

Luo Xuan learned from others that the other party was Zhou Cang, one of the two people Zhao Wenjie had mentioned earlier who needed to be paid special attention to.

The three areas covered a very large area, and it took Luo Xuan quite a while to walk around them.

However, after this reconnaissance, Luo Xuan had a basic understanding of how to fight in the three major areas. Overall, it was not a waste of effort, but rather very worthwhile.

Looking at the time, there was still a while before lunchtime. Luo Xuan slowly strolled back, preparing to go check out the martial arts arena.

Just as he was about to leave, Luo Xuan bumped into a group of contestants representing other cities.

Luo Xuan politely stepped aside and waited for them to pass first, while coldly observing them.

"Thanks, bro."

The leader of the other party greeted Luo Xuan as he passed by.

One of the girls, dressed in a white dress, caught Luo Xuan's attention.

His long, jet-black hair was simply tied into a high ponytail, and his face was aloof. He seemed to be talking to the girl next to him.

"Oh my, Qingyuan, you're definitely..."

A few words drifted into Luo Xuan's ears as the crowd passed by, causing him to pause and turn around, as he was about to continue walking back.

Qingyuan must be Su Qingyuan from Jinling.

Luo Xuan never expected to run into these two "celebrities" today.

Zhou Cangluo Xuan had seen it before, and his aura was indeed different from that of ordinary people, but Su Qingyuan just now didn't seem to have anything special about her.

Just as Luo Xuan was thinking this, Su Qingyuan, who had already walked over, seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around to meet Luo Xuan's gaze.

Seeing this, Luo Xuan remained calm and nodded, greeting the other party.

Su Qingyuan glanced at Luo Xuan, seemingly finding it somewhat strange, her beautiful brows furrowing slightly.

However, she was quickly pulled by the girl next to her, and then quickly turned around and continued to move forward with the group.

Seeing this, Luo Xuan also turned around and continued walking back.

Arriving at the martial arts arena, which had seemed very lively before, they happened to see Lin Feng there as well.

"Didn't you go check out the venue?" Luo Xuan asked, somewhat puzzled, noticing that Lin Feng didn't seem to have just arrived.

"Seeing the venue helps me prepare, but it also makes me anxious. As long as I have confidence, that's enough," Lin Feng said, sharing his opinion.

Luo Xuan thought about it and it seemed to make some sense, so he didn't dwell on the issue.

"What's the deal with this training ground?" Luo Xuan asked.

"It's similar to our trial space in Suzhou, but this one is in the form of a tournament, where two soldiers from each side fight one-on-one."

o

Lin Feng explained, "By the way, this model is very advantageous for you."

As he spoke, Lin Feng suddenly thought of Luo Xuan's two orange-tier troops. If it were a one-on-one fight, they, a group of first-tier lords, would be formidable opponents.

Among them, they are basically invincible.

"That's not necessarily true. There's always someone stronger. Did you forget Su Qingyuan, whom Captain Zhao mentioned on the way? She's someone who can defeat a second-tier lord even if she's not in the same tier. Her troops might even have the combat power of a second-tier lord."

Upon hearing this, Luo Xuan shook his head slightly, not feeling particularly proud as he thought of the girl he had just met.

"Moreover, these are only the experts who have been exposed on the surface. Who knows if there are any hidden experts in other cities?"

"You're right." Lin Feng agreed with Luo Xuan's statement. "However, Luo Xuan, you are truly a hidden master in Suzhou!"

Lin Feng changed the subject and patted Luo Xuan on the shoulder.

"Stop praising me, you're not bad either. With the right terrain, you can easily kill someone on your first encounter."

Luo Xuan also "counterattacked".

While the two were chatting, something new happened on the training ground.

"Someone's going up." Lin Feng had arrived before Luo Xuan and had seen him several times before, so he reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Luo Xuan also turned his gaze toward the martial arts arena.

The "doors" on both sides of the training ground opened, and a young man walked through each one.

The two sides were still exchanging greetings about each other's family members, suggesting that there had been previous conflicts or disagreements.

"As you can see, when there's a conflict, the quickest way to resolve it is to fight it out," Lin Feng explained.

He had seen this situation several times before.

Before coming here, everyone was a top lord in the city, if not the best, so they naturally had some arrogance.

With so many people gathered together today, it seems unlikely that no conflicts or disagreements will arise.

Combat between different types of soldiers on the training ground became the best solution.

The team leaders all knew that they couldn't just suppress their own players, so they tacitly accepted this approach, which also allowed them to obtain more information about other teams.

However, Luo Xuan, who had initially been quite interested, soon lost interest.

Therefore, the two on the training ground were merely summoning white-type soldiers to fight. In Luo Xuan's view, this "low-level" battle was not worth watching at all.

Looking at the time, it was almost lunchtime, so Luo Xuan said, "Let's go to the cafeteria and find a good spot."

When Luo Xuan and Lin Feng arrived at the cafeteria, there were already quite a few people inside.

There were long lines at each of the food serving windows, and rows of neatly arranged tables were set up there.

Looking at the scene, which resembled a school cafeteria, Luo Xuan felt a pang of nostalgia. However, he had already embarked on a different path and was unlikely to return to school.

Luo Xuan and Lin Feng found a less crowded window to queue up first, and then notified everyone in the group to come and eat quickly.

It took quite a while before everyone got their food and sat down, mainly because as time went on, more and more people arrived.

"I ran into Zhou Cang and Su Qingyuan while I was surveying the site today."

"I saw him too, wasn't he that tall, burly guy...?"

Who is Su Qingyuan? What does she look like?

The group sat together, eating and discussing what they had seen and heard that morning.
