Chapter 499: 499
The recruitment of generals was held the same day . After leaving the tea house, Jiang Chen went to the place where one could enroll .
It was located in the city center in a spacious square .
Countless soldiers were standing at the edges of the square, keeping bystanders outside . Some people from the Infinite Sword School were deploying something in the square in the meantime .
They had been working since the morning and were already close to finishing everything .
When the elders of the Infinite Sword School appeared, the people who had been waiting there since the morning seethed with excitement .
They laid their eyes on armored soldiers surrounded by the elders .
They saw the unique totem of the Flying Dragon Dynasty on their chests, a holy dragon making threatening gestures, flying through clouds and fog .
"The Flying Dragon Dynasty will recruit five generals to fight against the rebel army . Any candidate should have the ambition to aim for outstanding military exploits and extraordinary achievements .
"General candidates will serve the Flying Dragon Dynasty . The great benefits you'll receive are beyond doubt, and you'll achieve Venerable as quickly as possible . "
The speaker of the dynasty spoke in a direct, rather than roundabout, way . He told these things to the crowd bluntly .
Then an elder of the Infinite Sword School came forward . He said, "The five general candidates will be decided in a fair and just manner . Everyone in the city today will have a chance .
"Anyone interested, please enter the square . "
As he spoke, the soldiers stepped back from the left and right sides to make way .
The crowd hesitated for a short while, then some youngsters entered the square . Soon, more and more people entered . There were almost 1,000 people present .
Jiang Chen was among them, too .
He found the way people were standing in the square interesting . No matter whether they knew each other or not, they stood with people who had the same color fight loops .
Those with the golden ones stood in the front, while those with the white ones stood at the rear .
People like him, who didn't have any fight loops, of course stood at the edges .
Thanks to his height, he only had to raise his head to see the talented guys with golden loops standing in the center of the square .
There were six of them, each with a golden fight loop on their right sleeve .
Jiang Chen knew there were, at most, nine loops for each color . However, as far as he could recall, he had never seen anyone with two golden fight loops .
Maybe those fight loops aren't only used to classify Reaching Heaven States, so one golden loop is already the limit for them?
It was quite possible . Those with golden loops that he had seen had all reached the limit of the Reaching Heaven State, close to Venerable .
He suddenly recognized Peng Ying's sister, Peng Lan, among those six people .
It wasn't that he knew her, but brothers and sisters usually looked alike, not to mention that 80% of Peng Ying's features were similar to Peng Lan's .
Fortunately, Peng Ying wasn't ugly, so this Peng Lan, one of the Double Heroines, was kind of pretty .
However, she didn't seem to be in a good mood . She was frowning, because she had learned that her brother had been driven out of the Sword Master City . She had turned to the elders of the school to resolve the problem .
Peng Ying was in the square, too, standing in the crowd with the silver fight loops . He was looking around for Jiang Chen so that he could tell his sister where the latter was .
Across the square, an elder of the Infinite Sword School was asking for instructions from a soldier from the Flying Dragon Dynasty .
"General Mu, shall we start?"
This General Mu was in a high position . All of the other armored soldiers seemed to be under his command .
He glanced at the crowd in the square, furrowing his black brows .
