Chapter 1941: Chapter 1941: Pushing His Luck
Xu Nian saw the five people flying over, and his gaze became a bit colder.
It was clear that his recent battle had caught their attention; he just didn’t know how they would handle this matter.
"Mid-stage Divine-level cultivation? Was it the Gold Attribute Eighth Level Major Dao Truth you used just now?" Great Commander Zhu Heng looked at Xu Nian with surprise. His astonishment deepened when he saw that Xu Nian was only at mid-stage Divine-level.
He originally thought it was a team leader who had broken through, but he didn’t expect it to be a newcomer at mid-stage Divine-level.
"Yes, it’s the Gold Attribute Eighth Level Major Dao Truth," Xu Nian responded indifferently.
With these words, the whole place was immediately in an uproar.
Eighth Level Major Dao Truth?
Is this guy that powerful?
Among those present, only Zhu Heng was at the Ninth Level of the Great Tao Truth, while the other commanders were all at the Eighth Level.
This guy is at mid-stage Divine-level and can achieve the Eighth Level Major Dao Truth?
This is definitely a rare genius!
When he reaches the peak of Divine-level, what level will he attain?
"Which team are you from? Why have I never seen you before?" Zhu Heng asked in surprise.
Has the Vermilion Bird Camp produced a genius?
The other commanders were equally surprised.
"Reporting to the Commander, he’s called Xu Nian, from my team. He just ascended from the Lower Realm ten days ago, and this is his first battle," Li Tie stepped forward and said.
"First battle?"
The whole crowd was astonished.
Just ascended ten days ago?
How is this possible?
Zhu Heng and the other commanders were also shocked.
Isn’t a newly ascended person supposed to be at the early stage of Divine-level?
How can he be a mid-stage Divine-level person with Eighth Level Major Dao Truth?
This defies common sense!
Xu Nian felt the doubtful gazes from everyone and had to smile and explain, "Reporting to the Commander, I once consumed a miraculous pill that allowed me to break through to Divine-level while at the Immortal Emperor Realm’s Soul Realm, so I began to comprehend Major Dao Truth in the Lower Realm."
With these words, everyone finally understood.
Their gazes at Xu Nian were filled with envy.
Who would have thought this guy had such a tremendous fortuitous encounter?
Zhu Heng felt a little puzzled, but in this world, nothing is impossible, so such things are understandable.
Even so, being able to kill someone at the peak of Divine-level with mid-stage Divine-level cultivation, the cultivation technique must be extraordinary.
"So that’s how it is. Since you have the strength to kill the opponent’s commander and have made such meritorious achievements, when we return, I will report to the lord and have him evaluate you for commander status. As long as you pass the assessment, you will have the qualification to be promoted to commander," Zhu Heng said.
Upon hearing this, everyone cast envious glances at Xu Nian.
Just ascended, and about to be promoted to commander?
This is sensational!
Even Li Tie was surprised, but in his heart, he was glad to have befriended Xu Nian.
"Haha, doesn’t that mean our Vermilion Bird Camp will gain another commander? And a genius commander at that! This is great news!" Second Commander Xie Guang laughed heartily.
"Indeed it is good news. Xu Nian, once you are promoted to commander, we will be brothers," Fourth Commander Liu Yuan added.
"Haha, then congratulations to your camp for gaining such a genius. Brother Xu Nian, I’m Guo Cong, the person in charge of the North Mountain Mining Area. You can call me Brother Guo," Guo Cong immediately approached to befriend Xu Nian.
"Nice to meet you, Brother Guo," Xu Nian replied with a smile.
"Haha, good. If you have any problems in the future, feel free to come to Brother Guo," Guo Cong laughed.
Xu Nian nodded with a smile.
He knew that Guo Cong was just being friendly, and those words were not to be taken seriously.
Moreover, he didn’t have anything to ask of Guo Cong.
"Being able to reach mid-stage Divine-level with Eighth Level Realm comprehension just after ascending to the Divine World is indeed genius, but whether one can become a commander is another matter, as commander tests aren’t that simple."
At this moment, a cold and somewhat mocking voice rang out.
Everyone turned toward the voice, only to see Third Commander Wei Qing expressing with disdain.
The crowd around immediately changed their expressions, showing fear.
Those who initially wanted to befriend Xu Nian quickly dismissed the idea.
"This Wei Qing is ruthless, fond of killing and beauty. More importantly, he has a deep relationship with the Vice Lord, so everyone in the Vermilion Bird Camp fears him. Even Great Commander Zhu Heng would appease him. Previously, Xiao Wu and others wanted to present your wife to him," Li Tie relayed via soul transmission to Xu Nian.
Xu Nian understood Wei Qing’s position in the Vermilion Bird Camp.
However, as long as Wei Qing didn’t go after Zhao Yanyun, he naturally wouldn’t actively antagonize him.
"Thank you for the reminder, Third Commander. If I really can’t pass the commander test, then it’s because my abilities are lacking," Xu Nian responded calmly.
"Hmph, as long as you understand," Wei Qing snorted coldly.
He originally wanted to provoke this guy named Xu Nian to see how capable he was.
But unexpectedly, Xu Nian was afraid right away, making Wei Qing look down on him even more.
However, just as he was about to turn and leave, he noticed Zhao Yanyun, who had disguised herself, and his eyes lit up.
Who would have thought that beneath this ordinary appearance was a stunning beauty?
"You, come over here!" Wei Qing said with a charming smile to Zhao Yanyun.
Upon hearing this, Xu Nian immediately frowned.
Li Tie couldn’t help but feel something was wrong.
"What for?" Zhao Yanyun instinctively asked without moving a step.
"I told you to come over. Didn’t you understand?" Wei Qing shouted angrily, and a powerful divine pressure pressed toward Zhao Yanyun.
Someone actually dared to disobey his order?
All the divine beings around shook their heads in resignation.
This woman is in trouble.
All the women Wei Qing set his eyes on had no good ending.
However, just as Zhao Yanyun felt the immense pressure, Xu Nian suddenly stepped forward, standing in front of her, dispersing all the pressure in an instant.
"Third Commander, she is my wife. If you have any orders, feel free to tell me," Xu Nian responded with a calm face, showing no emotion.
The surrounding Divine-level experts looked surprised.
Is this woman Xu Nian’s wife?
This is going to be interesting.
Soon, most people showed expressions of watching a show.
This included Zhu Heng, Xie Guang, Liu Yuan, and Guo Cong.
Clearly, they had no intention of speaking for Xu Nian.
Some even secretly jealous of Xu Nian had schadenfreude expressions.
"Your wife? Then from today on, she won’t be. Xu Nian, you are a smart person, don’t ruin your future and life over a woman," Wei Qing said with disdain.
He didn’t consider Xu Nian at all.
Everyone turned their eyes toward Xu Nian, clearly wanting to see how Xu Nian would choose.
If Xu Nian agreed to Wei Qing, he could never hold his head high in the Vermilion Bird Camp again.
If Xu Nian refused, he would completely offend Wei Qing.
So no matter the choice, Xu Nian would be in a desperate situation.
Li Tie shook his head secretly, indeed a beauty is a curse.
"So, what does the Third Commander mean?" Xu Nian asked with a cold smile.
"Offer your woman to me, and I’ll spare your life. Otherwise, today will be your death day, and you won’t even have a chance to participate in the commander assessment," Wei Qing threatened with disdain.
Xu Nian was immediately enraged, then laughed.
What a sparing of his life.
It seemed that his continuous concessions only led to further demands.
In that case, he’d carve a path forward.
