Who told you to slay demons like this?
Chapter 24: Demon Slayer Selection
September has arrived as promised, the weather has turned cooler, and autumn is gaining momentum.
The whole street was bustling with activity, with people lining up in a long queue, like a winding dragon.
The starting point of this long dragon is the City Lord’s Mansion.
The story of the Demon Slaying Bureau killing the Eight-Eyed Demon King was widely circulated among the people.
The newly appointed city lord Xiang Yandong struck while the iron was hot and made a big announcement about the Demon Slaying Division recruiting new members.
The Demon Slaying Bureau has low recruitment requirements and is open to both men and women. As long as one is over twelve and under eighteen, unmarried, and has passed the basic assessment, one can successfully join the Demon Slaying Bureau and become a reserve demon slayer.
The warriors who are preparing to slay demons will enter the department for training, and will be provided with food and accommodation every month, and will receive a subsidy of 500 copper coins every month.
If one has excellent talent and is fortunate enough to be promoted to a demon slayer, he can receive 100 strings of copper coins every month.
One string of copper coins equals one thousand copper coins, which is a generous treatment.
A prospective demon slayer who cannot be promoted to a demon slayer within three years will be eliminated.
Such generous conditions attracted the attention of countless poor families. After all, most people could not get enough food to eat.
If children are sent to the Demon-Slaying Bureau, not only will they be exempted from daily meals, but they will also receive a subsidy of 500 copper coins. If they are lucky enough to be promoted, they can soar to the sky.
If you are unlucky and cannot be promoted within three years, you can still learn martial arts by spending many years in the Demon Slaying Bureau. Why not do it?
Previously, because of the Eight-eyed Demon King and the former city lord Tai Gang, Rongnan City's Demon Slaying Division's annual recruitment was in vain.
Basically no one signs up to participate, and even those who join the Demon Slaying Division do not receive any training from the division.
The funds allocated by the Demon Slaying Department to Rong Nancheng were used by the Eight-Eyed Demon King to build a palace. The food provided by the Demon Slaying Department to the prospective demon slayers to enhance their qi and blood also went into the demons' stomachs.
With the new official taking office, the past haze was swept away.
The wealthy and famous families in Rongnan City also became active at the same time, preparing to send their descendants to the Demon Slaying Division.
Although many families have warriors of their own, the martial arts secrets in the Demon Slaying Bureau are much better than theirs.
If children can get in and learn a little bit, it would be good.
With the help of Lu Lingxian, Mo Zhanji successfully used the Jade Purity Bamboo to reshape his meridians and bones, and once again embarked on the path of martial arts training.
At the same time, with the help of Lu Lingxian, Mo Zhanji pretended to be Qin Xi's brother, changed his name to Qin Zhan, and joined the Demon Slaying Division together.
The registration period lasted for three days. When Qin Xi and Mo Zhanji came out, the line formed a long dragon. The two smiled at each other and helplessly lined up at the back of the line.
Fortunately, the autumn weather was pleasant and the waiting process was not that unbearable.
From time to time, a few people failed the test and walked out dejectedly.
"Get out, you dirty bastard!"
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the team ahead, and several ragged, skinny teenagers were pushed out.
Several young men dressed in silk and satin, looking healthy and with good family backgrounds, gathered together and showed off their might.
"What are you looking at? You hungry peasants want to join the Demon Slayer Division?"
"You all look pale and skinny, you might as well give up your seats to me!"
The young men who were pushed out of the team were all angry but dared not say a word, and just stood there in dismay.
These rich young men seemed to be late, and were unwilling to follow the order and line up at the back, so they found a few poor people with ordinary looks and forcibly occupied their seats.
Most of those queuing up were young boys and girls, and many of them were accompanied by their parents.
Some people expressed dissatisfaction with the domineering young man, but no one dared to stand up and seek justice.
When Qin Xi heard the noise and was about to step forward, the demon slayer who was in charge of maintaining order strode over and carried out several rich young men who had cut in line, like chickens.
"Follow the queue order, no queue cutting!"
The tall and mighty demon slayer warned the teenagers and at the same time signaled the poor boy who had just been driven out to return to the team.
Several wealthy young men felt embarrassed and unhappy. A tall young man wearing a blue silk brocade frowned and asked, "Why?"
"What on earth? You are not allowed to cut in line!"
"If you dare to cut in line again, your registration will be cancelled!"
When the remaining teenagers heard that they were disqualified, they immediately became cowardly and hurried to persuade the impulsive teenager, "Mr. Zhou, forget it."
"Let's go to the back..."
The man named Zhou Shao had a sinister look in his eyes and looked at the demon slayer with hatred. He was pulled to the back of the team by several young men who were traveling with him.
When passing by Qin Xi, Qin Xi heard Zhou Shao's fierce and deliberately lowered voice.
"Bah, you demon slayer dare to act rashly in front of me."
Qin Xi: …
The little episode during the process made the people in the queue more calm and attentively wait.
Soon, it was Qin Xi and Mo Zhanji's turn in the team.
The demon slayer in charge of reviewing the documents glanced at Qin Xi and Mo Zhanji, and asked Qin Xi in a gentle tone, "You want to sign up, right?"
Qin Xi shook his head, "We both sign up."
Afterwards, Qin Xi handed the household registration book that he had specially contacted Lu Lingxian to the Demon Slayer. The Demon Slayer took the book and glanced at it.
Then he looked at the slightly older, unshaven-bearded Mo Zhanji with a look of surprise, and said hesitantly, "Your name is Qin Zhan, and you are seventeen years old?"
Mo Zhanji nodded firmly, but the demon-slaying envoy looked hesitant.
Qin Xi glanced at Mo Zhan Ji and felt helpless. In order to hide his identity and avoid being recognized by his enemies, Mo Zhan Ji deliberately used a disguise mask.
But for fear of being recognized, Mo Zhanji pretended to be a middle-aged uncle.
With such appearance, how could he not arouse the suspicion of the Demon Slayer?
"You..." The Demon Slayer was about to say something when he saw another Demon Slayer walking towards him.
The Demon Slayer looked at the other party curiously, only to see the other party walking quickly towards him and whispering something to him.
The Demon Slayer reluctantly took out two identity cards and handed them to Qin Xi and the other two.
Afterwards, Qin Xi and Mo Zhanji came to the test site under the guidance of the Demon Slayer.
The number plate in Qin Xi's hand is [Ding Si], and the number plate in Mo Zhanji's hand is [Geng Chou]
"What is the meaning of this number plate?" Qin Xi asked curiously.
Mo Zhanji took a look and said, "It doesn't make any sense, it's just for the convenience of grouping."
Qin Xi was supposed to go to Group D to take the assessment, and Mo Zhanji was going to Group G, so the two parted ways.
After arriving at Group D, what caught my eye was a training ground where many members who had received D-number tags gathered.
"Come here and register first."
After seeing Qin Xi, the yamen runner in charge of the matter stopped Qin Xi.
Qin Xi handed his ID card to the yamen runner and stated his name.
The yamen runner didn't even raise his head, but wrote quickly with a pen in hand.
"Follow the team order, don't walk around randomly, go up when you hear your name."
"If you can hold out for five moves against the demon slayer, you'll be considered excellent."
"Stick to three moves, and it's good."
“If you can’t persist, you can admit defeat in time. If you admit defeat and persist for less than three moves, you will be considered a failure.”
"By the way, the demon slayer is a warrior in the Qi realm."
