At this mont in Cloud Sky City, within a grand hall.
As Lin Chen’s main body defeated Gong Wenwen who had co looking for trouble, his Second Soul Division in Jade Cauldron Kingdom was worried about military recruitnt.
"Two months have passed, and we’ve recruited only so few people? Do these guys seriously think our Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s treatnt isn’t good enough?"
Lin Chen’s Second Soul Division frowned slightly as he listened to Luo Yu and Xu Yang reporting the recruitnt situation from below.
Lin Chen thought the treatnt he offered was the best among all the armies in the Eastern Domain. It was known that even for new recruits, as long as they passed the training camp, they would receive the sa treatnt as veteran soldiers.
Hearing Lin Chen’s sowhat displeased words, Luo Yu and Xu Yang, among others, had no solution. They furrowed their brows and detailed the recruitnt situation to Lin Chen.
The reason they couldn’t recruit soldiers was not that the martial artists despised their offered treatnt.
On the contrary, many martial artists ca with great eagerness, wanting to join because of the reputation of Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army’s treatnt.
However, the Jade Cauldron Sect’s recruitnt standards were not as ordinary as those of other empires. After a round of recruitnt, barely anyone t the standards.
At the beginning, Luo Yu and others saw so martial artists who t the standards.
Although those martial artists were not very powerful, they indeed t the conditions after so hard fighting.
But as ti went on and Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s fa for recruitnt grew, countless martial artists ca forward.
Luo Yu and others originally thought that with more people coming, they would naturally recruit more soldiers.
But it turned out not to be so, as the number of martial artists who t the conditions decreased as more ca.
This showed that within Frost Chill Kingdom, truly determined martial artists were indeed few.
Even to inspire these martial artists’ determination, Luo Yu and others ford a Sword Array to train them, helping them to gradually beco stronger. Only then did so barely et the recruitnt standards.
If not for Luo Yu’s idea, the number of soldiers they recruited would have been even scarcer.
And facing Jade Cauldron Sect’s Sword Array Body Refining training, people ca to understand that the might of Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army was indeed reasonable.
The resources were important, but behind the strength was undoubtedly the army’s own efforts.
"Sigh, let’s leave it at that for now."
"Leave so people to carry out recruitnt over a long period."
Lin Chen shook his head helplessly, understanding that they could not be too hasty with recruitnt issues.
After all, Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s recruitnt standards were indeed not low, but they couldn’t lower the standards simply because they couldn’t recruit enough soldiers.
The pace of recruitnt was slow, but Lin Chen couldn’t have everyone keep waiting.
Because Zhangyang Country might retaliate any ti after borrowing troops from Zhenning Empire.
Lin Chen and his people also had to assemble the army early in preparation for battle.
Facing Lin Chen’s words, generals like Luo Yu and Xu Yang nodded in agreent.
They’d rather go to the battlefield and fight bravely than face those incompetents.
Recruiting those folks was unbearable for them; it was hard to imagine commanding such an army if it were in their hands.
Although there were so clues about recruitnt, a person in charge was presently missing.
Without a powerful cultivation leader in charge, it would be difficult to convince the masses and have a deterrent effect.
Lin Chen frowned slightly, looking around among the generals, trying to select soone to take charge of the recruitnt office.
Seeing Lin Chen’s gaze, everyone beca anxious, not daring to et his eyes, lest they be tasked with the recruitnt duties.
It was a joke; these past days, they had been tornted nearly to madness by those good-for-nothings, and they didn’t want to go.
More critically, it was bad enough that those guys were weak, but after failing the recruitnt assessnt, they even questioned the strength of the recruitnt Sword Array, claiming it was too powerful and impossible for anyone to pass.
This was a classic case of blaming others because they couldn’t succeed themselves.
Luo Yu and the others certainly didn’t want to spend every day watching over those novices.
Lin Chen also felt helpless, seeing that none of the generals seed willing to take on the task.
"My lord, let give it a try," said Lian Tianxing, stepping out from the ranks. As Xu Ma’an’s Direct Disciple, he had joined the War Departnt not long ago and was now a general.
However, Lian Tianxing rarely engaged in frontline battles; he spent most of his ti maintaining the normal operations of Jade Cauldron Sect and handling internal affairs.
Knowing how arduous recruitnt would be, he also understood that these new recruits would be the fresh blood of Jade Cauldron Kingdom and that nothing could go wrong. Hence, Lian Tianxing volunteered.
Lin Chen naturally agreed to Lian Tianxing’s voluntary offer. The other generals of the War Departnt were even more delighted, admiring his willingness to volunteer for what they had tried to avoid.
On Lian Tianxing’s first day in charge of the recruitnt office, the second day, and the following week, there wasn’t much improvent in recruitnt. However, on the seventh day, the situation improved sowhat, and a few people were recruited.
Lian Tianxing suggested a thod, which was that martial artists who passed the High Mountain Flowing Water Sword Array Body Refining but had not successfully passed the assessnt could stay to continue training within the Sword Formation.
As long as the martial artists were willing, they could join Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army as soon as they succeeded.
This imdiately piqued the interest of many martial artists. Of course, many also thought it was purely abuse.
Yet, there were indeed martial artists who didn’t fear being tornted and kept persisting in the High Mountain Flowing Water Sword Formation for several consecutive days, refining themselves with Sword Intent.
Although the process was painful, the results were surprisingly delightful.
Those martial artists gradually adapted to the pressure of the Sword Qi in the Sword Array, and Lian Tianxing eventually inford them that they had successfully passed.
This news made the persevering martial artists extrely happy, and Lian Tianxing too felt a great sense of satisfaction.
These warriors who didn’t fear difficulties and possessed strong willpower were precisely the talents Jade Cauldron Kingdom was looking for.
Certainly, those who chose to give up at the first sign of trouble were not the kind Jade Cauldron Kingdom would recruit.
It’s worth noting that the High Mountain Flowing Water Sword Formation was the first barrier when the Jade Cauldron Sect recruited disciples in the past.
During the recruitnt of the army, only the Third Layer of the Sword Formation was used.
Keep in mind that even Luo Yu and others could only withstand the Sixth Layer.
And when Lin Chen joined the Jade Cauldron Sect, he genuinely withstood the Ninth Layer!
