Chapter 173: Becoming the Top One

Translator: Flying-Lines

Nobody had seen it coming that a sudden change would take place at the end of the counting work. In an instant, everyone couldn’t help but secretly guess what was going on.

Bai Lingshi said gently, “Here comes the wild card.”

Zhao Yin beside her changed his face slightly and said with a grudging smile, “I don’t think so. Probably because the Totem Barbarian Tattoo is too tattered to be identified, it’s hard to decide how many military merits it deserves.”

As Zhao spoke, he seemed to regain his confidence and said, “See, the military merit of Totem Barbarian Tattoos Lin Xun has collected totals 1,000 at most. If he wants to make it into the top three with such an achievement, it’s rather ridiculous.”

In the end, he became composed again as if he could foretell like a prophet

Soon as the drillmaster announced Lin’s ultimate result, Zhao Yin fell into a daze completely.

“Lin Xun, 1,309 military merits!”

All present burst into an uproar an in unbelief with their eyes wide open.

“How could it be? The Totem Barbarian Tattoos he obtained are obviously not as many as Bai’s, but why can he get the same number of military merits as Bai Lingshi?”

“It…it’s so unbelievable!”

“If so, does it mean that both Lin Xun and Bai Lingshi get the first place in the war-zone assessment?”

All the trainees were in an uproar, and they couldn’t believe it.

Both Shi Yu and Ning Meng fell into a trance. In their views, the military merits Lin Xun got, at most, would be of about the same level as them. But surprisingly, he exceeded them and even jumped to the top one!

In other words, both of them lost the bet to Lin Xun.

At the moment, Zhao Yin’s face changed frequently. If Lin’s result wasn’t forged, it meant that he, who was originally one of the top three, would get the fourth place.

Zhao Yin had never seen this coming.

In addition to those trainees, the drillmasters and generals responsible for the counting work felt shocked, too.

They all looked at Lin Xun with complex expressions in their eyes. Deep down, they knew that the result they announced was actually not the real one but the most conservative one.

Lin Xun would get a higher result, according to the real classification of military merits!

That was because the tattered Totem Barbarian Tattoo that didn’t belong to an ordinary Barbarian Soldier. Only the Barbarian Soldiers at the second level could possess such tattoos.

Barbarian Soldiers at the second level were tantamount to those top practitioners at the medium stage of the Gang Spirit Realm!

According to the military merit reward standards of the empire, killing such a Barbarian Soldier could get 300 military merits at least and 800 ones at most.

As a result, the drillmasters after a short discussion granted Lin Xun the same result as Bai Lingshi. That was because Lin Xun obtained an inconceivable Totem Barbarian Tattoo that easily caused some controversies for him. Once he was in a higher ranking than Bai Lingshi, the controversies over him would become more.

Lin Xun was stunned, too. He was quite certain that he wouldn’t at least lose the bet to Shi Yu and Ning Meng because of the military merits he had obtained. But, he didn’t expect that he would jump to the top one at one fell swoop, making him as high as Bai Ling in the ranking.

He soon came to realize that this might be due to the Totem Barbarian Tattoo he obtained when he killed Shriying.

No matter how uproarious the people present was, the process of judging the military merits was done, and both Lin Xun and Bai Lingshi got the first place.

Lee Duxing got the second place without any doubt.

Only Zhao Yin, the third place, was a little awkward because everyone knew that Zhao Yin should actually get the fourth place after Lin’s result was announced.

“This is the game-changer,” said Bai Lingshi, and then she left after turning around.

Zhao Yin’s face color changed continuously, and he felt extremely uncomfortable. It was Lin Xun who was behind all of this!

“Want to rank first with Bai Lingshi? He should ask my permission first!”

Zhao Yin made a curse in his heart. He had made up his mind that he would look for a chance to teach Lin Xun a lesson after returning to the Bloodthirsty Camp, making Lin understand the gap between them.

Lin Xun had never anticipated that his result aroused Zhao Yin’s hatred, which was absolutely an unexpected calamity.

However, full of unexpected changes, things were so absurd sometimes.

“Since you lost, you owe me Flickering Blue-sky Liquor,” Dong Lu smiled gloatingly.

Song Ling snorted with a poker face, but deep down, he felt bewildered. A teenager at the Martial Spirit Realm could really kill a Barbarian Soldier at the second level. How did he do that?

What a stir could this matter cause if the information leaked out?

However, Song Ling also knew that the military merits of trainees from Bloodthirsty Camp was one kind of classified information in the empire. Although they knew it, they couldn’t leak it, which was for sure.

The three-month war-zone assessment drew to an end.

Only 42 trainees were left; some were sifted out while some were killed in the Demon-cloud Ridge.

After the trainees’ military merits were announced one by one, the drillmasters of the Bloodthirsty Camp didn’t stay longer. That evening, they, together with the 42 trainees who had passed the assessment, boarded the battleship and left the Reshahar Army Camp.

On the battleship-

Both Shi Yu and Ning Meng kept silent, but they glanced at Lin Xun sitting between them from time to time as if they looked at a monster. Finally, Lin Xun couldn’t stand it and asked out of options, “What the hell do you want to say?”

After a dry cough, Shi Yu said in embarrassment, “Er, I’ve lost the bet. Can the 1,000 imperial golden coins I owe you…”

Immediately, Lin Xun said with his eyebrows raised, “Do you want to default on the stakes?”

Shi Yu said while shaking his head instantly, “I don’t want to default, but I need some time to collect such a great deal of money. You also know that this sum of money is equal to imperial 100,000 imperial silver coins or 10 million imperial copper coins. With my authority at present, I can’t take out enough money in a short time.”

In the end, Shi felt embarrassed. As the third child of Fortune God Shi, he couldn’t pay the money he promised in a bet, which was a disgrace to him if this matter spread.

Lin Xun said directly, “It’s a simple problem. Just sign an IOU.”

Shi Yu said a little unwillingly, “It’s the right thing to do.”

Lin Xun looked at Ning Meng. Ning felt ashamed, too. He hummed and hawed, “Well…I…actually…”

Lin Xun said helplessly, “You can also sign an IOU, OK?”

Like being granted a great amnesty, Ning Meng nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and agreed on it immediately.

Looking at the two guys, Lin Xun felt funny. Since he didn’t take this bet seriously, he didn’t want to say more.

Of course, he felt jolly upon seeing them suffer a setback in front of him.

“Well, how did you gain so many military merits on earth?” Ning Meng couldn’t help but ask. He had held this doubt in his heart for a long time.

Shi Yu looked at Lin, too.

“It’s a secret,” said Lin Xun, which made them speechless instantly. Knowing he didn’t want to say much about this matter, they didn’t ask more.

A dozen days later-

The 42 trainees including Lin Xun returned to the Bloodthirsty Camp without any welcome ceremony. As soon as they arrived, they were ordered to go back to their own camps.

The drillmasters responsible for bringing them back rushed towards Shu Sanqi to make a report.

After coming back to the Camp 39, Lin Xun directly went to the warehouse of Old Mo.

The warehouse was empty and tranquil. Young Man wasn’t there, and Old Mo had already left there. Standing alone in the warehouse, Lin Xun couldn’t help feeling depressed while looking at the familiar things.

Having stood there for a moment, Lin Xun reclined on a chair and couldn’t help but recall the things that happened after he entered the Bloodthirsty Camp.

As drowsiness swept over him, he closed his eyes.

During the three-month period in the Demon-cloud Ridge, he kept vigilant all the time. As he kept fighting, he got wounded continuously; for several times he almost got killed.

No sooner had he come back than he became relaxed. Thus, Lin Xun, who had been exhausted, fell into a good sleep.

At the same time, in the central camp of the Bloodthirsty Camp-

After patiently hearing out the report on the assessment in Demon-cloud Ridge, Shu Sanqi asked with his countenance slightly changing, “Are you sure Lin Xun killed the second-level Barbarian Soldier by himself?”

The drillmasters, who led the trainees to take part in the assessment, nodded their heads.

They weren’t sure how Lin Xun did that, but they could guarantee that no powerful practitioner in the empire helped him in this assessment.

“He perhaps encountered a heavily injured second-level Barbarian Soldier by accident,” said Young Ke randomly.

A few drillmasters nodded, because they thought so, too. After all, it was quite unbelievable that a teenager at the Martial Spirit Realm could annihilate a second-level Barbarian Soldier.

Only such an explanation made sense.

“Why did a Voodoo-Barbarian on such a level appear in the Demon-cloud Ridge?” Shu Sanqi put forth another critical question.

“According to Song Ling, it’s the Water Barbarians who have some ulterior objectives that remain unknown to us,” said Dong Lu in a deep voice.

Shu Sanqi said with his eyebrows wrinkled, “Let it go. Since the assessment is over, dawdling on such a matter is a waste of our time. After you return to your camp, Young Ke, you can sound out Lin Xun. If he’s reluctant to say, don’t push him.”

Young Ke nodded.

“All guys, there are 42 trainees left after the war-zone assessment. Their training in the camp will draw to an end in three months.”

Shu Sanqi took a deep breath and said slowly with a rather serious face, “We only need to do one thing in the last period. That’s we will use every method we can to eliminate another 12 trainees among the 42 ones.”

All the drillmasters felt confused and didn’t know why.

Shu Sanqi explained quickly, “Because Gang-producing Lake…can accommodate 30 trainees at most.”
