"In our current formation, we will take turns to test.”
General Zhang shouted.
Instantly.
Ten of the personal guards under the platform walked out and stood in front of the stone block, supervised by them.
One by one, the recruits began to step forward to test, using all their strength to lift the stone block.
Zhu Xiong was ranked fifth in his line, so he was not in a hurry.
"Ah!"
The ten recruits came to the stone block and used all their strength, but only three of them raised it with a flushed face. Then, they silently recited the time in their hearts, while the others struggled with difficulty.
Three breaths passed.
"After passing through three people, the rest will leave the camp and return home.”
A guard shouted.
"Sigh."
"I originally wanted to be a soldier to earn a living, but it seems that I was thinking too much.”
"The Beiping Army under the King of Yan has a lot of money. It's not my turn.”
Those who failed left in disappointment.
Then, these recruits went up in batches. Some were eliminated, while others passed smoothly.
Very quickly.
It was Zhu Xiong's turn.
"Let's begin."
The personal guard in front of Zhu Xiong pointed at the stone block and said.
Zhu Xiong did not hesitate. He walked forward and grabbed the handle of the stone block with his right hand. Then, he exerted a little strength and the stone block was easily lifted up by Zhu Xiong.
"Eh?"
General Zhang, who was standing on the platform, looked at Zhu Xiong lifting the stone block with one hand, and his face revealed a trace of surprise.
"This guy doesn't look very strong, but why is he so strong?”
"My eyes must be playing tricks on me."
"How strong is this guy…"
The surrounding recruits looked at Zhu Xiong in surprise.
"I didn't even use my full strength, yet I was able to easily lift this 100 jin stone block. It seems that if I were to use my Qi, my strength should be around 300 jin.”
"This is only level one.”Zhu Xiong thought to himself.
Immediately after.
Zhu Xiong casually lifted the stone block. Three breaths later, the personal guards in front of him looked at Zhu Xiong in a daze.
"General, is it time?" Zhu Xiong looked at the stunned guard and said.
"We're…we're here."
"You, pass the test."
The guard came back to his senses and said.
"Thank you."
Only then did Zhu Xiong put down the stone block and cupped his fists.
"Wait a minute."
General Zhang said to Zhu Xiong.
"May I know what is the matter, General?" Zhu Xiong took a glance and asked calmly.
"You didn't use your full strength when you lifted the stone block. I want to know how much strength you have.”General Zhang was very curious.
"General, may I ask what kind of soldier you will be assigned to if you are strong in the army?”Zhu Xiong's eyes turned as he asked.
"If you are strong, you will be assigned to the archer army.”General Zhang did not hesitate.
"Archers."
Zhu Xiong pondered for a moment.
The archer army was relatively safer compared to other troops, especially the ordinary offensive infantry.
Although he was strong now, swords had no eyes on the battlefield. There were also all kinds of rolling stones, hidden arrows, and cannons in this era.
This was not something the current Zhu Xiong could block.
Thinking of this…
Zhu Xiong did not hesitate.
He lifted the stone block that he had just put down with one hand and walked to the other side. His left hand followed the momentum and lifted the two huge stone blocks easily.
"General, I wonder if this strength can enter the archer army?”
Zhu Xiong looked at General Zhang and asked.
"Kid, you have some strength.”General Zhang immediately praised him. He admired him very much and then said,"With your strength, you can definitely join the archer army. However, I can give you a better choice now. Do you want to join my personal guards?”
"This general looks like a great general. A recruit was actually recruited by this general as a personal guard. This kid's luck is too good.”
"Sigh, it's really luck."
"If only I had such great strength. If I could become the personal guard of this general, that would be really lucky.”
The group of recruits looked at Zhu Xiong enviously.
"General, I appreciate your good intentions.”
"If this subordinate wants to join the archer army, I will have to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.”
"General, please grant my wish."
Zhu Xiong said with a serious expression as he bowed to General Zhang.
Hearing this, General Zhang was also very surprised, as if he had not expected Zhu Xiong to refuse.
However, he was not angry at all.
"Others avoid the battlefield, but you actually want to go to the battlefield.”
"I want to hear your reason." General Zhang asked curiously. He stared at Zhu Xiong as if he wanted to see through him.
"The reason is simple."
"I want to be promoted to a higher position and stand out.”
Zhu Xiong raised his head, and his eyes met with General Zhang's. There was an indescribable determination in his eyes.
Hearing this reason.
General Zhang didn't say much and just nodded.""Note down his request. The archer army, the main archer army on the battlefield.”
"Yes."
The guard immediately replied.
"I want to know your name." General Zhang looked at Zhu Xiong and said.
"Zhu Xiong."
"Alright, I will remember it."
"Our Beiping Army will reward those who have made contributions. If you can really make contributions, you will definitely be promoted.”
"I look forward to seeing you."
After saying that.
He turned around and left.
She watched him leave.
One of the guards looked at Zhu Xiong as if he was looking at a resentful species. He then walked to his side and said in a low voice,"Kid, you have missed this opportunity. General Zhang Fu is the King of Yan's most trusted general.”
"What a pity."
