[Ding, a mission is issued to compete for the strongest recruit. For each higher assessment level, you will receive a system reward. 】

The system’s voice echoed in Bai Qi’s mind.

Bai Qi clenched his fists. He would never miss any opportunity to become stronger.

Returning to the dilapidated thatched house, Bai Qi immediately started to practice his internal energy.

Although he had a system, he still worked hard and diligently.

Because Bai Qi understands better that hard work pays off.

Half an hour later, there was a noise at the door.

Miao'er came in with a wooden tray and called out, "Brother Baiqi, it's time to eat."

Two black-faced steamed buns, a bowl of porridge, and a plate of cold wild vegetables. The food was extremely rough, but Baiqi knew that it was the best meal in the village.

These days, if the common people at the bottom of society can have some dry rice and steamed buns to eat, it is considered a good year.

"Miao'er, did you save your own food and give it all to me?"

"Brother Baiqi, Miao'er is not hungry, you eat more."

Bai Qi grabbed the steamed bun and ate it, but he felt infinite love for the girl in his heart.

"Brother Bai Qi, if you fail the selection this time, can you promise Miao'er that you won't think about joining the army to fight in the future?" The girl obviously thought that Bai Qi had no chance of passing the conscription selection.

Bai Qi smiled without saying anything and continued to practice his internal strength.

The next day, the crowing of roosters echoed throughout the village.

After practicing all night, Bai Qi suddenly opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"System, open the attribute panel for me."

As Bai Qi called out with his mind, a transparent light curtain appeared in his mind.

Host: Bai Qi.

Level: Level 1

Internal Force: 2 (First level of Internal Force)

Physical Body: 0 (Ordinary person)

Cultivation Method: One-star lower-grade Internal Force Method "Introduction to Internal Force".

Martial arts training: No

Martial arts supernatural powers: No

Experience required for upgrading: 99

.....

"After a night of training, my internal strength has increased a little, and the experience required for upgrading is also a little less."

"It seems that training and killing enemies can go hand in hand, allowing me to upgrade faster."

"Also, I clearly feel that my internal strength is stronger than yesterday, and the total amount of internal strength that can be mobilized is also greater."

The speed of the upgrade is absolutely visible to the naked eye.

Bai Qi was very excited.

If the salary increase in the previous life could be comparable to this, anyone would wake up with a smile.

At this time, a dull drum sound was heard.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The villagers of Heifenggou immediately ran out of their houses, only to see three teams of soldiers in bright armor coming in the open space.

"Pass the order!"

"Heifenggou has 23 villages under its jurisdiction. All the young and strong men who have signed up to join the army should assemble immediately and wait for the conscription examination."

Military flags were flying, war horses were neighing, and a murderous atmosphere arose spontaneously.

Bai Qi followed the young and strong men in the village and immediately lined up on the temporary training ground.

Half an hour later, all the young and strong men from the twenty-three villages had gathered.

On the general platform stood three young generals, each with a military flag behind them.

The general of the Qin Family Army in the center said in a voice like a bell: "Today, our Qin Family Army, Yang Family Army, and Yue Family Army will be assessed."

"Those who fail the assessment will not be recruited."

"Those who pass the assessment will be divided into three grades."

"In order to encourage you to go into battle and kill the enemy and serve your country, anyone who is evaluated as an ordinary soldier by our three armies will receive an annual salary of one thousand copper coins, which is twice as high as that of other armies!"

Boom -

the whole audience was boiling.

One thousand copper coins was equivalent to one tael of silver. For an ordinary family, if they had half a tael of silver a year, they could live a fulfilling life.

The salaries of these three armies are twice as high as those of other armies. You can imagine how excited the people in Heifenggou are.

"Wind! Wind! Wind!"

At this moment, the villagers of Heifenggou excitedly shouted the war song of their old Qin people.

On the reviewing platform, the general of the Qin family army in the center clenched his fist with one hand, and the huge training ground immediately fell silent.

He was very satisfied with the result. This was the principle of the Qin people to enforce discipline, and it was also the reason why the three armies came together to recruit soldiers, while his Qin army was the one giving the orders.

“Anyone who is evaluated as an elite soldier by my three armies can receive a military pay of two thousand coins per year!”

“Anyone who is evaluated as an elite soldier by my three armies can receive a military pay of three thousand coins per year!”

“Now, the assessment begins.”

“The first item, draw the bow!”

Then, the sound of frequent drumbeats rang out, and a row of well-trained soldiers immediately brought five tables with five hard bows on them.

"Those who can draw the first bow have passed the test, and those who can draw the fifth bow have been assessed as Class A!"

Following the order given by the Qin general, more than a hundred strong men in the training ground began to try one by one.

"Grandpa, do you think Brother Bai Qi can shoot this bow?" Miao'er asked anxiously.

"How is that possible? The lightest bow here weighs 80 kilograms. This is the standard bow of the army, not the soft bow we use for hunting." The old man in sackcloth clothes shook his head slightly.

"That's good!" Miao'er patted his chest happily.

As they were talking, they saw someone trying his best but still couldn't draw a full bow.

"You coward, where did your food go? Don't say you are from Qin anymore." The head of the village where this man lived cursed at him. It was so shameful!

"Watch me!" At this time, Erniu from Baiqi's village stepped out. He didn't even look at the first bow, but directly grabbed the third bow.

"Open!"

The dark biceps exerted force, and a creaking sound was heard, and the bow was pulled out to form a full moon.

"Good! A bow weighing 150 jin, brave man, go up!" The generals of the Qin family army cheered.

Bai Qi saw that the usually steady and mature head of the village was as happy as a child. He looked around proudly and smiled with his yellow teeth showing: "We are from our village!"

The other headmen had ashen faces, as if they were outdone and felt very unhappy.

The martial spirit of the old Qin people is undoubtedly revealed.

After Erniu finished shooting the bow, he returned to the queue. When he walked to Bai Qi, he did not forget to say, "Bai Qi, now you know that although I eat a lot, it is not in vain!"

Bai Qi smiled and said nothing.

"The selection of new soldiers this time is good. This one has the potential to be an archer!"

On the high platform, the three generals were very pleased and were thinking about how to trick Erniu into joining their army later.

Suddenly, a strong man stepped out, he directly passed the third bow and went straight to the fourth bow!

The entire school ground was silent.

"No way! This is a 200-jin bow. Anyone who can shoot this bow can rival the Huns' eagle archers."

On the high platform, the three generals looked at each other with burning eyes.

"Open!"

As the sturdy man shouted angrily, the hard bow creaked with a sound, and the veins on the sturdy man's forehead bulged. Finally, he pulled the bow into a full moon.

"Okay! Go ahead, B!" the general of Qin's army roared.

"Wind, wind, wind!" Rows of soldiers slammed their spears into the ground in unison, giving a dull and powerful cheer.

Apparently even these elite soldiers were impressed by such strength.

"From our village!" A village head jumped up happily, then looked at the village head of Baiqi Village as if in a demonstrative manner. The meaning was very clear.

Why are you showing off?

Are you as good as us?

The head of Baiqi Village was so angry that his face turned red. He urged Gou Wa, who was stronger in the village, to go forward. As a result, Gou Wa almost injured himself when he was only halfway through the fourth bow.

This made him very discouraged.

Next to him, Miao'er was also covering her mouth, shocked by the force of pulling a 200-jin bow.

'How great it would be if Brother Bai Qi was this powerful? The seedling can be lifted with one hand. '

Which girl doesn't think that her lover is a hero? But this is just wishful thinking, after all, Bai Qi has a fair complexion and thin arms and legs.

Maybe he is not even as strong as Miao'er.

The girl shook her head secretly.

At this moment, the soldier held up the bamboo slips and shouted, "Next, Bai Qi, step out!"
