In the morning, the sun's rays spread across the entire campus.

  But the six thousand Black Armor Army was like a cold and dark deep pool, making the entire campus feel solemn. The more than three hundred people who had been chatting all along suddenly fell silent, and under this atmosphere, no one dared to speak.

  "Huh?" Tong Qing felt as if a stone was pressing down on his chest, but after slightly adjusting his breathing, he returned to normal.

  "I'm not afraid of anyone in the Black Armor Army, but with six thousand people together, so far away, it completely overwhelmed me." Teng Qing Shan also didn't make a sound, following along with the crowd, walking towards the school grounds. Along the wide road paved with bluestone, when over three hundred people entered the school grounds...

  Six thousand Black Armor Army, many people turned their heads to look over, with confidence and provocation in their eyes.

  It is an honor to be a soldier of the Black Armor Army.

  "Haha……" A loud laughter suddenly echoed across the entire campus, and Teng Qing Shan looked up to see four men and women wearing black robes walking towards the front of the campus in a line, with one of the elderly men in black robes being the source of the laughter.

  This old man in black robes has a hooked nose, silver-white hair and piercing eyes.

  "Clear wind, I heard that this time's sect assessment has nine top-notch martial artists?" The black-robed silver-haired old man spoke from afar, "My Black Armor Army has eight vacant hundred-man commanders. I don't know how many of these nine people can take. If not a single one can take it, then it will be interesting."

  The grey-robed middle-aged man who had been leading the group of people from Qing Shan immediately bowed slightly and smiled, saying: "Second Master, this time nine top-notch martial artists have come, there are a few ruthless characters among them, you should let your hundred soldiers be careful."

  Four black-robed figures walked abreast, in addition to the silver-haired old man in black robe, there were three others, two men and one woman. One of the men was as tall as nine feet, with a sturdy physique, his entire face had a metallic luster, like being cast from metal.

  Another man, nearly eight feet tall, looked relatively younger, with piercing eyes. His gaze swept over the black-armored soldiers below, who couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.

  As for the four black-robed people, the only woman among them. Because she was wearing a black robe, her figure couldn't be seen clearly. But her height exceeded seven feet (1.75 meters), which is considered very tall for a woman. Her skin was fair and delicate, but her gaze was as cold as a knife, making one involuntarily feel a sense of trepidation.

  "Junior brother, I'm the one who led the Black Armor Army into battle. Although I was only one of the weakest eight hundred men. But it's not like these so-called top martial artists can easily defeat me." The tallest and most robust man among them, a nine-foot giant, said in a loud voice that still echoed in his chest.

  At this time, the four men in black robes walked onto the viewing platform above the school grounds.

  On the platform, five chairs were placed. The four men in black robes sat down separately, leaving only the central empty seat.

  "Salute to the commander!" Suddenly a low voice came from the Black Armor Army.

  Suddenly, splash!

  Six thousand Black Armor Troops stood in unison, one knee on the ground, the sound of their heavy armor colliding was quite jarring. The six thousand Black Armor Troops shouted in unison: "Greetings, Commander!" However, among the six thousand Black Armor Troops, there were also dozens of people standing at the edge who slightly bowed and did not kneel down.

  "Get up." It was the old man in black robes with silver hair who spoke.

  Six thousand Black Armor troops rose up at the same time.

  "They are the four...” Teng Qing Shan carefully observed those four black-robed men standing high above, “They should be the Four Great Commanders of the Black Armor Army! These are truly post-heavenly top-notch experts, not to be compared with ordinary first-rate warriors.”

  Heng Qing Shan had a hint of battle intent in his heart.

  Lifting ten thousand catty of giant stone is a boundary!

  Reaching this boundary is a first-rate martial artist, and it's called 'Acquired Peak'. However, as long as there's a good internal energy manual, decades of bitter practice can reach the Acquired Peak, which isn't a difficult task. This has also led to... too many Acquired Peaks in this world!

  Tieshan Gang Wang family three brothers, all!

  Hong Siye, indeed!

  That 'Li Yanshan' who was killed by Tan Qingyuan is also!

  A small Yicheng has so many, more sects and even more post-heavenly peaks.

  This time, the nine first-rate warriors who entered the sect assessment are indeed top-notch! It's easy to imagine how many post-heavenly peak experts there are in these nine states. However... each person's strength is not exactly the same. Due to their unique internal energy techniques or innate talents.

  Capable of bursting out with tens of thousands of kilograms of force in an instant!

  For example, Teng Qing Shan, although he hasn't reached the Xiantian realm and can only be considered a postnatal strong expert. However, his strength allows him to easily slaughter large groups of top-notch martial artists.

  "Hei Jia Jun, the highest position is just the leader! I don't know, how does his strength compare to mine?" Teng Qing Shan also didn't dare to be too arrogant.

  After all, the history of this land can be traced back for thousands of years, and the internal force has been used to its peak. For example, Bai Ma Bang's 'Hong Si Ye' once blocked Teng Qing Shan's 'stone', and there are even more powerful four major leaders, with what means, it is hard to say.

  ******

  Just as he was thinking on Mount Tengqing, three more figures appeared in the distance. The four great generals of the Black Armor Army, who were sitting high above, immediately stood up and slightly bowed to pay their respects: "Greetings, Master!"

  "Pay respects to the clan master!" The middle-aged man in gray robes and dozens of black-armored soldiers at the edge also immediately bowed.

  "Pay respects to the clan master!" The other six thousand Black Armor Army members all knelt down on one knee.

  Among the three, the middle-aged man in white robes led the way, with a hint of a smile on his face and fair skin. He walked along the road as if floating in mid-air. On either side of him were a young couple. The young man wore a green brocade robe, his eyes darting back and forth as if thinking up some mischief.

  That young woman, in a light yellow dress, her dress fluttering in the wind, seemed like an ethereal being untouched by worldly desires. Her eyes were pure and unadulterated, with a hint of a gentle smile at the corners of her mouth. As she walked, she exuded a unique charm that captivated people's hearts.

  Fairy descends to the mortal world?

  "What a beautiful girl." Even Qing Shan's heart skipped a beat when he saw this young girl.

  Teng Qinghu and others stared blankly.

  The man in white robes led the young couple directly to the central chair and sat down, while the young couple stood behind him.

  The white-robed middle-aged man and the four great generals said a few words casually, then turned their heads to look at the black-armored army below, laughing and saying: "Everyone gets up first!"

  "Thank you, Master."

  This man is the absolute ruler within the borders of Jiangning Prefecture, the master of the Guiyuan sect - Zhuge Yuanhong!

  "I return to the Yuan Zong Black Armor Army, every half year they will absorb a group of external experts! This time, there are nine first-rate warriors and thirty-eight second-rate warriors. What surprises me the most is... among them, one of the first-rate warriors is only sixteen years old!"

  As soon as Zhuge Yuanhong spoke out, the Black Armor Army below, no matter how good their discipline was, couldn't help but start discussing in low voices.

  "Sixteen years old? How is that possible?"

  "A genius like Shao Zong's master?"

  ……

  "Hmph." The young man with a cold expression sitting on the viewing platform let out a cold snort, and the Black Armor Army immediately quieted down.

  Zhuge Yuanhong smiled faintly and said: "Second Master, there is a dispute among the hundred officials below, you come to preside over it."

  "Yes, Lord." The silver-haired old man in black stood up and looked around below, saying loudly, "I have 6,000 Black Armor Army, divided into four troops, with a total of 60 hundred captains! Every half year, among the 15 hundred captains in each troop, the two weakest hundred captains will be dismissed!"

  "The four leaders of the horsemen, a total of eight hundred men, will now compete with those nine top martial artists for the eight positions of hundred men." The old man in black robes' words caused a low murmur among the over three hundred people.

  Teng Qing Shan finally understood the rules of competing for the position of Hundred Soldiers Commander.

  Let the eight weakest centurions among the active ones compete with them for these eight positions.

  "Seventeen people, competing for these eight hundred captain positions. Those who fail will directly become squad leaders!" The black-robed elder looked down coldly, "Niu Zhang! Hong Xingyang! Xia Shuo! Si Tuning......" The black-robed elder continuously called out the names of eight people in one breath.

  "You eight people, send over your green-haired Snow-stepping Horses and crimson iron heavy armor." The black-robed old man said indifferently.

  Suddenly, from the edge of the 6,000 Black Armor Army, eight people walked out, each leading a precious horse. On top of the horses were stacked sets of dark red heavy armor. The faces of these eight men didn't look too good, it was clear that this was a great loss of face for them.

  "Nine top martial artists will also come forward." The black-robed elder ordered.

  "Go with those eight centurions to that place." The grey-robed middle-aged man urged Qingshan and the others.

  Indifferent Gong Yang Qing, mischievous Wu Man, and Teng Qing Shan who carried the Wheel of Reincarnation... The nine top-notch warriors also walked to the front of the Black Armor Army. Alongside eight other centurions.

  "They are the worst eight out of sixty centurions! The old man in black robes glanced at Teng Qing Shan and his nine men, "However, they are still the worst eight. Among you nine, not many can win against them! If you want to become a centurion of my Black Armor Army, you must have some real skills!"

  A top martial artist, who doesn't have an arrogant air?

  No one will admit defeat if they don't compare.

  Teng Qing Shan and nine others were silent, but their glances at the eight centurions beside them all contained a hint of battle intent.

  "The method of trial is very simple!" The old man in black robe said loudly, "In the school field, there are eight built-up fighting platforms. Niu Zhang, Hong Xingyang and the other eight people, one person on each platform, temporarily as 'Fighting Master'. And you nine top martial artists can challenge them, if you win the challenge, you will be the Fighting Master. If you fail, you can challenge another person again! You seventeen people, each of you has two chances to challenge! When the challenge is over, the eight people still on the platform are the eight hundred captains!"

  "Remember, in the arena, it is forbidden to take a life. Anyone who intentionally kills will be put to death!" The old man in black robes said coldly.

  There are many masters in the field, whether it's intentional or not, can be seen at a glance.

  "Alright, Niu Zhan, you eight, go to the arena." The black-robed elder gave a cold order. At this moment, those eight hundred men were observing each other with the nine top martial artists, and at the same time, they walked towards the eight arenas.

  Teng Qing Shan's gaze fell on the burly man who resembled a humanoid black bear.

  Because...

  This is an acquaintance! It's that person, the black armored army hundred officer 'Xia Shuo' who once helped out at the Moon-Embracing Building.

  "Xia brother." Teng Qing Shan smiled and walked over.

  "You are......" Xia Shuo suddenly glared with his ox-like eyes, "Two days ago, you were that young kid at the Moon-Embracing Building... You're a top-notch martial artist?"
