Tang Tian very quickly separated from Ah Mo Li and the rest, but n.o.body found it weird, as it was announced earlier that Tang Tian was going to the outer barracks. From what everybody saw, although Tang Tian was going to the outer barracks, Master Kong had taken notice of him, and would have plans to groom him by himself.
They all were thinking that they had to spend the period of time to work hard, and the next time they meet, they better not be left behind by a further distance by that lunatic of a young man.
To have formed a mental shadow because of that brat, they have indeed lost some face.
Tang Tian once again boarded another carriage, but compared to Master Kong’s Flying Carriage, this carriage could only be described as poverty-stricken.
Tang Tian was not the only one being sent over. Looking forward, there were seven other thirteen and fourteen year old youths. All of them did not look happy, and had gloomy expressions while barely uttering a word.
Tang Tian did not make conversation with them as he did not have the time.
Tang Tian struggled in Bing’s insane training daily.
“Did you not eat? I tell you! If my subordinate trained like this, I would definitely beat the s.h.i.t out of him!” Bing rose high and shouted into Tang Tian’s ear.
Bing was getting crazy, as if he were a different person. It seemed like he was extremely pa.s.sionate about torturing Tang Tian
Where was the old, stiff and inflexible person? Bing, who barely spoke a word the previous day, now loved to pull his throat to roar and bellow. As long as Tang Tian was not performing up to standard, he would curse in rage with his spit showering down, showing no mercy.
It was like, through the night, Bing’s ethereal body had found its soul.
Sadly, it was an iron blooded and psychotic soul.
“Raise your head, trash! It has been ten days! And you have barely have any improvements? Can you be a little more stupid? I have trained 463,619 recruits, and all of them were stronger than you by a hundred times! With your standard, in the army, you’re not even fit to cook or clean!”
Bing who was in the air, squatted down, saliva spitting at Tang Tian’s head.
Tang Tian did not cower at all. His hands not slowing down, he retorted: “Haha! And here I thought you were some big and important person in the past, but it turns out you’re just specialized to train recruits’ b.u.t.ts!”
“Specialized to train recruits’ b.u.t.ts…” Bing’s white boarded emotionless face suddenly drew a black line, like a wave flashing past.
“Come! Let this G.o.dlike young man show you what kind of b.u.t.t deserves to be called a genius young man!” Tang Tian was not afraid at all and shouted in anger, his hand speed becoming faster and faster.
Over the few days of torturous training, his Eagle Claw had become extremely deadly, with all ten hook-like fingers carrying a blood red flame, and a shrill hissing sound with every movement.
Compared to his old Hardship Training, the current h.e.l.lish form of training’s efficiency was much more astonishing.
Bing watched the claw shadows and was shocked. Previously, in Tang Tian’s Hardship Training, he was always observing in the dark. But from his experience, Tang Tian’s training efficiency should only be normal, due to the fact that Tang Tian’s talent was very terrible.
To use the phrase very terrible, was not quite accurate. It was extremely terrible, the most extreme of terrible talent he had ever seen in history.
But it was Tang Tian’s tenacity and perseverance, which caused him to shake.
Previously, Bing did not think of opening the recruit training grounds until Tang Tian came and asked him if there was anything he wanted to do, and was he spurred to do so. After slumbering for so long, all of his war friends had turned to dust, and only he was left, becoming an ethereal spirit that had awoken.
Bing did not understand why the military encampment would fall into Tang Tian’s hands.
However, when Tang Tian started the recruit training program, Bing got the shock of his life. Bing was not shocked by the fact that Tang Tian could endure. From the start, Bing had already known that Tang Tian could complete the recruit training program, only that it would require more time. In this short period of time, he had already understood Tang Tian. Tang Tian’s willpower and tenacity had emotionally moved him to excitement.
But this time, what Bing was shocked about was Tang Tian’s improvement speed, as the speed of which he was improving had far exceeded his estimation.
To an instructor, with the experience of over 463,619 recruits of a superpower army, with regards to estimating a person’s training improvement speed, Bing had already reached the point of perfection.
However, Tang Tian’s improvement speed far exceeded his estimation!
On the first day, Tang Tian lasted until day light, where, at the last moment, he was unable to defend any longer.
At the beginning of the second day, Bing had secretly increased the difficulty of the training.
Tang Tian did not know that the difficulty of the training he was doing was comparable to the olden times of the Southern Cross Army.
On the ninth day, Tang Tian’s training difficulty had already reached the hardest difficulty.
Under the intense and fearful torturous training, his Eagle Claw had long reached perfection, and even moved to the next level. Tang Tian’s Eagle Claw, was not inferior to the ordinary rank four martial technique already. The greatest improvement though, was actually the Crane Style Qi in Tang Tian’s body. Although it was the first time Bing had seen the Crane Style Qi, from the first look, he could identify the merits and drawbacks.
All of the ‘take a beating’ training, was not something he slapped out of his mind.
Although Tang Tian’s True Power had reached the maximum of the third level, to Bing, not only the volume, but the quality also had room for improvement. That the Crane Body had not received any mental signals regarding quality, to Bing, meant that the True Power training was not up to standard. He decided to proceed with consistent attacks to ‘refine’ Tang Tian’s Crane Body.
If it was not for Tang Tian, Bing would not have thought of such a method.
Only this tenacious brat could endure this kind of psychotic training.
Tang Tian’s arms flew very quickly. The entire sky was filled with screeching sounds, and the light b.a.l.l.s in front of him were hitting upon a fire wall, the powerful might unceasingly ricocheting.
“G.o.dlike young man?” Bing coldly said: “There has never been anyone who dared to proclaim themselves as G.o.dlike.”
Although this sentence was light, Bing’s words were filled with aggressiveness.
Yet, Tang Tian was not frightened, and laughed out loud: “Seems like you are ignorant and inexperienced, Uncle! So let this G.o.dlike young man widen your view, and help you acknowledge how vast this world is, as well as this young man’s endless fighting spirit!”
“Uncle…” Bing’s straight face had three black lines emerging on his forehead.
“Unless you are still trying to act young? Hey, Uncle, people must know themselves. Although you don’t want to admit it, you’re not young and tender anymore. In contrast to this G.o.dlike young man, you are an uncle who have lived through many changes of the world, there’s nothing to hide!” Tang Tian was oblivious to the fact that he was multi-tasking shouting to Bing and fighting the light b.a.l.l.s.
“uncle who have lived through many changes of the world….” Bing’s face was full of scattered black lines.
“Ah ha! Boohoo, Uncle Great Changed Bing, Uncle Great Changed Bing, Yo, yo, yo, he has a bit of changes, he has a bit of grief, a bit of changes, a bit of changes, a bit of grief, a bit of grief… “ Tang Tian used an extreme voice to sing.
Bing, who was flying in the air froze, and in the next moment, the black lines on his face changed to a nasty grin: “Let us see, who is the one who changed, who is the one with grief!”
All the light b.a.l.l.s in the vast wilderness, stopped in their tracks, and all of them suddenly grew blood red eyes.
All the light b.a.l.l.s, turned their bodies, and turned to face where Tang Tian was standing.
All the light b.a.l.l.s pounced towards Tang Tian.
Tang Tian’s song abruptly stopped, and his shrill of terror filled the heavens and earth.
“How unlucky, every time I have to come to this broken place, it really is heart wrenching!” The driver of the carriage in front, a man wearing a white martial robe with crew cut hair, could not help but scold. His robes had a black line, which signifies that he was an iron ranked martial artist from the Honorable Martial Group.
Iron ranked martial artists were the lowest rank of martial artists in the Martial Group, even a newly joined member who had done nothing but pa.s.s the entrance exam would naturally become an iron ranked martial artist. Of course, provided that the new member was very strong, then after pa.s.sing the bronze martial exam, he would immediately rise in rank to become a bronze ranked martial artist.
By his side, was another iron ranked martial artist who was fully bearded. He consoled: “It’s not too bad, we are just here for a trip. It’s this group of people that are the miserable ones.”
“That is true.” The crew cut man said: “Luckily, I was not sent to this broken place that year.”
“You did not offend anyone, how would you be sent here?” The bearded muscular man shook his head: “Only someone who has offended important people would be sent here. All these people are not able to become iron ranked martial artists, and they are destined to defend this place for all eternity.”
“I’m puzzled. Why would the higher ups form an outer barracks in this deserted place where birds do not even s.h.i.t?” The crew cut man had a puzzled look.
“That you would not know.” The bearded muscular man explained: “Some time ago, the higher ups found out that there was some treasure here, but in the end, after searching for half a month, they could not find anything, and the leader was a silver ranked martial artist.”
“Silver ranked martial artist!” The crew cut man gasped: “Don’t tell me it’s a section head?”
All the Martial Group Section Heads on Immortal Constellation were silver ranked martial artists.
“How is that possible?” The bearded muscular man shook his head: “That was a very long time ago, and I heard it from an old senior. Regarding that place, the energy concentration was much richer, and if it was left alone it would have been a waste, so the higher ups might as well build an outer barracks there. Sadly though, that place has a very bad environment, and to enter or leave is very dangerous, so no one is willing to go. It used to have an incomplete, discarded state, and up until now, there came about a story.”
“Story? What story?” The crew cut man asked.
“It was about twenty years ago, there was a rather powerful star spirit beast, that suddenly appeared in Immortal Constellation, and the losses at that time were very serious. After investigations, the star spirit beast originated from that place. The higher ups were worried that something like that would happened again, so they agreed to reopen the big tomb outer barracks there, to serve as an outpost.” The bearded muscular man explained.
“This kind of place, no one is willing to go.” The crew cut man sighed.
“Yeah, no one is willing to go, but still there must be people to go. So, now you understand, this is a place of banishment.” The bearded muscular man said.
“No wonder!” The crew cut man seemed to be enlightened: “As i said, such a good outer barracks, why should it be built at this h.e.l.l of a place!”
“Actually there is still some good merits.” The bearded man said: “The higher ups know that people are not willing to go. But whoever goes to this big tomb outer barracks, even if they don’t have the chance to get promoted to iron ranked martial artists, three years later, as long as they continue to stay there, they get to enjoy the privileges of iron rank martial artists. For any ordinary person, going there is actually not too bad, except that they have to live simply.”
“That is true!” The crew cut man nodded his head: “The iron ranked exam is so difficult, without sufficient power, go there and have the privileges of an iron ranked martial artist, the family would have no worries.”
“Exactly…”
Following the two people who were chatting, the people below them started to appear out of their caves which seemed like beehives who were densely packed, with no end in sight.
