Volume 1 Chapter 3 New Recruit Assessment
[Ding, a mission is issued to compete for the strongest recruits. For each higher level of assessment, you will receive a system reward. 】
The system's voice echoed in Bai Qi's mind.
Bai Qi clenched his fists. He would never miss any opportunity to become stronger.
Returning to the dilapidated thatched house, Bai Qi immediately started to practice his internal energy.
Although he had a system, he still worked hard and diligently.
Because Bai Qi understands better that hard work pays off.
Half an hour later, there was a noise at the door.
Miao'er came in with a wooden tray in her hand and called out, "Brother Baiqi, it's time to eat."
Two black-faced steamed buns, a bowl of porridge, and a plate of cold wild vegetables. The food was extremely rough, but Bai Qi knew that it was the best meal in the village.
These days, if the common people at the bottom of society can have some dry rice and steamed buns to eat, it is considered a good year.
"Miao'er, did you save your own food and give it all to me?"
"Brother Bai Qi, Miao'er is not hungry, you should eat more."
Bai Qi grabbed the steamed bun and ate it, but his heart was filled with infinite love for the girl.
"Brother Bai Qi, if you fail the selection this time, can you promise Miao'er that you won't think about joining the army to fight in the future?" The girl obviously thought that Bai Qi had no chance of passing the conscription selection.
Bai Qi smiled without saying anything and continued to practice his internal strength.
The next day, the crowing of roosters echoed throughout the village.
After practicing all night, Bai Qi suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"System, open the property panel for me."
As Bai Qi called out with his mind, a transparent light curtain appeared in his mind.
Host: Bai Qi.
Level: 1
Internal Force: 2 (Internal Force Level 1)
Physical: 0 (ordinary person)
Cultivation method: One-star lower-grade internal force method "Introduction to Internal Force".
Martial arts training: None
Martial arts skills: None
Experience required to upgrade: 99
.....
"After practicing for a night, my internal strength has increased a bit, and the experience needed to upgrade has also decreased a bit."
"It seems that practicing and killing enemies can work together to help me level up faster."
"Moreover, I clearly feel that my internal energy is stronger than yesterday, and the total amount of internal energy that can be mobilized is also greater."
The speed of this upgrade is absolutely visible to the naked eye.
Bai Qi was very excited.
If the salary increase in the previous life could be comparable to this, anyone would wake up with a smile.
At this time, a dull drum sound was heard.
“Boom boom boom!”
The villagers of Heifenggou immediately ran out of their houses, only to see three teams of soldiers in bright armor coming into the open space.
"Send the order!"
"Heifenggou has 23 villages under its jurisdiction. All the young and strong men who have signed up to join the army should gather immediately and wait for the conscription examination."
The military flags were flying, the war horses were neighing, and a murderous atmosphere arose spontaneously.
Bai Qi followed the young and strong men in the village and immediately lined up on the temporary training ground.
Half an hour later, all the young and strong men from the twenty-three villages had gathered.
On the general platform stood three young generals, each with a military flag behind them.
The general of the Qin Army in the center said in a loud voice: "Today, the Qin Army, the Yang Army, and the Yue Army will be assessed."
"Those who fail the assessment will not be recruited."
"Those who pass the test are divided into three categories."
"In order to encourage you to fight in battle and serve your country, anyone who is rated as an ordinary soldier by our three armies will receive a salary of 1,000 copper coins per year, which is twice as much as other armies!"
boom--
The whole audience was boiling.
One thousand copper coins was equivalent to one tael of silver. For an ordinary family, if they had half a tael of silver a year, they could live a fulfilling life.
The salaries of these three armies are twice as high as those of other armies. You can imagine how excited the people in Heifenggou are.
"Wind! Wind! Wind!"
At this moment, the villagers of Heifenggou excitedly shouted the war song of their old Qin people.
On the reviewing platform, the general of the Qin family army in the center clenched his fist with one hand, and the huge training ground immediately fell silent.
He was very satisfied with the result. This was the principle of the Qin people to enforce discipline, and it was also the reason why the three armies came together to recruit soldiers, while his Qin army was the one giving the orders.
"Anyone who is evaluated as an elite soldier by our three armies can receive a military salary of 2,000 coins per year!"
"Anyone who is evaluated by our three armies as a Great Zhou elite soldier can receive a military salary of 3,000 coins per year!"
"Now, the assessment begins."
"First item, draw the bow!"
Then, the sound of rapid drumbeats sounded, and a row of well-trained soldiers immediately brought five tables with five hard bows on them.
"Those who can use the first bow have passed this test, and those who can use the fifth chapter bow have been rated as A-level!"
Following the order from the Qin army general, more than one hundred strong men in the training ground began to try one by one.
"Grandpa, do you think Brother Bai Qi can shoot this bow?" Miao'er asked anxiously.
"How is that possible? The lightest bow here weighs 80 kilograms. This is the standard bow of the army, not the soft bow we use for hunting." The old man in sackcloth clothes shook his head slightly.
"That's good!" Miao'er patted his chest happily.
As they were talking, they saw someone trying his best but still couldn't draw a full bow.
"You coward, where did your food go? Don't say you are from Qin anymore." The head of the village where this man lived cursed at him. It was so shameful!
"Watch me!" At this time, Erniu from Baiqi's village stepped out. He didn't even look at the first bow, but directly grabbed the third bow.
"open!"
The dark biceps exerted force, and there was a creaking sound, and the bow was pulled out to form a full moon.
"Good! A bow weighing 150 jin, brave man, go up!" The generals of the Qin family army cheered.
Bai Qi saw that the usually steady and mature head of the village was as happy as a child. He looked around proudly and smiled with his yellow teeth showing: "From our village!"
The other village heads had dark faces, as if they were outdone and were very unhappy.
The martial spirit of the old Qin people is undoubtedly revealed.
After Erniu finished shooting, he returned to the team and walked to Bai Qi's side, saying, "Bai Qi, now you know that although I eat a lot, it's not for nothing!"
Bai Qi smiled and said nothing.
"This recruitment of new soldiers is great. This one has the potential to be a great archer!"
On the high platform, the three generals were extremely pleased and were all thinking about how to trick Erniu into joining their army.
Suddenly, a strong man stepped out, he directly passed the third bow and went straight to the fourth bow!
The entire school ground was silent.
"No way! This is a 200-jin bow. Anyone who can shoot this bow can rival the Xiongnu's eagle shooters."
On the high platform, the three generals looked at each other with burning eyes.
"open!"
As the sturdy man shouted angrily, the hard bow creaked with a sound, and the veins on the sturdy man's forehead bulged. Finally, he pulled the bow into a full moon.
"Okay! Go ahead, B!" the general of Qin's army roared.
"Wind, wind, wind!" Rows of soldiers slammed their spears into the ground in unison, giving a dull and powerful cheer.
Apparently even these elite soldiers were impressed by such strength.
"From our village!" A village head jumped up happily, then looked at the village head of Baiqi Village as if in a demonstrative manner. The meaning was very clear.
Why are you showing off?
Are you as good as us?
The head of Baiqi Village was so angry that his face turned red. He urged Gou Wa, who was stronger in the village, to go forward. As a result, Gou Wa almost injured himself when he was only halfway through the fourth bow.
This made him very discouraged.
Next to him, Miao'er was also covering her mouth, shocked by the force of pulling a 200-jin bow.
'How great it would be if Brother Bai Qi was this powerful? The seedling can be lifted with one hand. '
Which girl doesn't think that her lover is a hero? But this is just wishful thinking, after all, Bai Qi has a fair complexion and thin arms and legs.
Maybe he is not even as strong as Miao'er.
The girl shook her head secretly.
At this moment, the soldier held up the bamboo slips and shouted, "Next, Bai Qi, step out!"
