The Secret of the Goddess

Chapter 36 Assessment at the Guards

After dinner, Xue Yi did not practice martial arts, but went into the house and looked through the "Red Flame Violent Strength" given to him by Xiao Qingruo.

He will go to the Guards to fight early tomorrow morning, and he must study this book to be familiar with it, otherwise if the problem of the origin of martial arts is exposed, things will be troublesome.

As a top-grade martial arts mental method, the Red Flame Violent Strength is not too complicated, but it is not easy to learn.

Fortunately, Xue Yi does not need to learn it, as long as he knows the changes when using it, he can use the Suzaku Qi to simulate it and deceive others.

That night, the two of them lived in peace. Xue Yi did not bully Xiao Qingruo, and Xiao Qingruo did not deliberately provoke him.

Soon, a night passed, and the day of the Guards' Assessment arrived.

It has been two days since Xiao Qingruo received the task assigned by Shengwei Mansion.

In the morning, Xue Yi got up early to practice martial arts, absorbing the remaining purple gold ginseng king medicinal power in his body to consolidate his realm.

Thirty-seven caves are constantly running, absorbing the spiritual power between heaven and earth, making his true qi at least ten times stronger than that of practitioners at the same level.

The maids just got up and were washing and combing their hair. A group of little girls gathered together, Zidie helped Qiutang comb her hair, Biyun helped Cuihe tie her belt, and they played around from time to time, which was pleasing to the eye.

After a while, the sun rose and the temperature gradually became a little hot.

"Brother Xue Yi, what do you want to eat in the morning? Xiaodie will get it for you!" Zidie finished washing and ran over to ask.

Xue Yi smiled and said, "I won't eat today. It's not suitable to fight if you are too full."

"Ah? Who is Brother Xue Yi going to fight with?" Zidie was curious.

"A lot of people, I don't know how many, anyway, it's not easy." Xue Yi said, but his tone was still very relaxed.

If he hadn't entered the cave realm, he would probably be beaten to death or seriously injured, and he wouldn't be able to recover for ten days or half a month.

But now he is not the Xue Yi three days ago!

After practicing, he wiped the sweat off his face with the towel handed over by the maid, then picked up the Dragon Slashing Sword and went out.

Before leaving, he did not forget to ask the maids to prepare breakfast for the young lady and remember his duty as a personal guard.

…

Guard Office.

As one of the two major standing military institutions of Shengwei Mansion, it has the best and most numerous practitioners in Shengwei Mansion.

Although the combat effectiveness of the guards generally does not reach the level of "masters", most of them are in the Gangqi realm, and there are only 20 to 30 in the Dongtian realm.

But they are all people who were adopted by Shengwei Mansion since childhood and grew up in training. They are loyal and very obedient!

Of course, being obedient does not mean losing oneself. Everyone still has his own thoughts, makes friends, quarrels, and competes privately.

Xue Yi came to the guard office with the Dragon Slashing Sword in his hand. He has not been back for just three or four days, so naturally there will be no changes, and he is still the same.

"Hey, Xue Yi!"

Someone next to him greeted him.

Turning his head, he saw a thin young man jumping out and punching him.

"Shen Longfei, wow, you've recovered well, are you healed?" Xue Yi caught the other's fist with one hand, steady as a rock.

Shen Longfei was surprised and said, "You've been full of energy for a long time. How come you've reached the Cave Heaven Realm after not seeing you for a few days? Did the eldest lady give you some magic medicine?"

This thin boy entered the Guard Department at the same year as Xue Yi. He has the strength of the seventh level of Gangqi and has a good relationship with Xue Yi. Last month, he followed the second young master Huo Feixuan to hunt and was bitten by a beast that cultivated demonic energy. He has just recovered recently.

Xue Yi smiled and said, "It's nothing, just third- and fourth-level spiritual medicines. It's almost 100,000 taels of silver if you sell them."

"Fuck, big brother, you've made a fortune. Don't forget to help your brothers in the future!" Shen Longfei looked envious.

"What are you yelling about? It's so noisy!" At this time, an impatient voice came from the side.

Xue Yi turned his head and saw: "Oh, isn't this Xiao Zhao? Has the swelling on his face subsided?"

The person who spoke was Zhao Xuan, who had "recommended himself" to replace him before, and was accompanied by several third-class guards in the Dragon and Tiger Realm.

"You bastard...you will suffer the consequences later!"

Being poked in the sore spot, Zhao Xuan gritted his teeth, glared at him fiercely, and then turned to the martial arts training ground.

Seeing this, Shen Longfei whispered to Xue Yi: "Xue Yi, Zhao Xuan has been holding a grudge against you for a long time. Today is the day for you to be tested. At that time, Commander He will definitely select some people to deal with you and test your actual combat ability. I estimate that Zhao Xuan will volunteer and gather a group of people to deal with you. Be careful!"

Xue Yi nodded slightly: "Don't worry, I don't care about his strength."

"Zhao Xuan is okay, but his uncle Zhao Ancheng is not a pushover. He is at the fifth level of the Cave Heaven Realm. You are definitely not his opponent now." Shen Longfei was a little worried.

Xue Yi smiled: "Zhao Ancheng? Let's talk about it when he can get out of bed."

Then he walked calmly to the martial arts training ground.

"Can't get out of bed? What's wrong? Has he been squeezed dry by women?" Shen Longfei followed him at a trot.

The guard department is divided into four major groups, A, B, C, and D. Each group is divided into six teams 1-6, led by six first-class guards, each team has 30-35 people, a total of more than 800 people.

The four major groups A, B, C, and D have their own tasks to perform, such as Group A is responsible for guarding the library, Group B is responsible for the safety of the warehouse, Group C is patrolling, Group D is guarding the gate, etc.

All kinds of tasks are rotated, and they are changed every 3 days.

The six teams in the group take turns according to the time. Different tasks have different duty hours. Patrolling is the most tiring, while guarding the warehouse and the library is the easiest because no one dares to break in.

At this moment, at least two teams in each of the four groups are on duty outside.

But there are more people left in the guard office!

Because anyone who is not on duty has to do morning exercises in the morning. There are more than 500 people training in the martial arts field at this moment.

"Hey!"

"Ha!"

"Wow!"

One punch and one kick, one by one, hundreds of people practice together. It looks a bit silly, but in fact, they are all very practical basic skills, which are very useful in fighting.

At the front of the array, a middle-aged man stood shirtless on a platform made of fine steel, examining whether the guards were lazy or slippery.

This middle-aged man has a straight face, a beard, and bright eyes. He looks majestic and solemn.

His name is He Haoshan. He is the commander-in-chief of the guard office of Shengwei Mansion. He has the strength of the second level of the immortal realm and is one of the senior staff of this mansion.

"Commander-in-chief, Xue Yi is here to report!"

Xue Yi stepped forward and announced his name loudly.

Shen Longfei entered the queue and went to exercise with others.

He Haoshan glanced at him and raised a hand.

"Stop!"

Everyone stopped practicing immediately.

"Xue Yi, come up." He Haoshan said.

"Yes!"

Xue Yi jumped onto the platform in two steps.

The platform has a diameter of 6 meters and a height of more than 2 meters. It is cast with molten steel and weighs more than one million kilograms.

The red and black spots on the steel platform are not traces of rust, but stains after coagulation of blood. It has not been allowed to be cleaned for many years, and many people have died on it.

He Haoshan looked Xue Yi up and down and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, you have entered the cave heaven realm in just a few days. It seems that the eldest lady attaches great importance to you and gave you elixir."

"Commander-in-chief has a keen eye. It is indeed the medicine given by the eldest lady that has successfully broken through!" Xue Yi replied with a fist, with a respectful attitude.

Although he was promoted to the eldest lady's personal bodyguard, he was still a bodyguard in name and had to obey the orders of the commander-in-chief He Haoshan when necessary.

And if he failed today's assessment, he would no longer be a personal bodyguard.

But... a corpse!
