From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 9: Finalist, Gaining a Little Brother

As the words fell, every word clanged like steel beads, attracting everyone's attention.

New recruits, old soldiers, even Wang Hu and others on the high platform cast surprised looks.

The wind grew stronger, and its whistling sound was mixed with hints of sarcasm and insults.

Wu Fengdeng ignored him completely, and only when all the stone plates were strung together did he bend down and hold the iron rod.

lol~
The muscles all over his body bulged secretly, and there were even some sounds of muscles and bones moving.

Hold tight and exert force!
The boiling blood splashed out from the heart and flowed through the limbs like a flood.

【Transportation capacity】!
The iron rod suddenly bent a little, and then Wu Fengdeng held his breath and grabbed it in one go!
Boom~
The air flow was stirred, and the eight hundred-pound stone plate that looked heavy hanging above his head stopped steadily.

In an instant, the criticism stopped.

The snatch limit that Wu Fengdeng tried a few days ago was 1,000 kilograms. At his current level, he didn't even need to grit his teeth and persevere, and he easily lifted it in five breaths.

Then slowly put it down.

Boom!
But his face was slightly red and his breathing was still slow.

"Wu Fengdeng, eight, eight hundred kilograms."

The soldier in charge of recording spoke with a complicated look in his eyes. His voice was not loud, but it reached everyone's ears in the empty training ground.

The young recruits who were full of superiority just now were stunned, disheveled in the wind and snow, and dumbfounded in shock.

How could such a lowly person wearing a tattered jacket possess such divine power!
The most horrified among them was undoubtedly Qiao Li. He even began to doubt his own eyes and rubbed them hard to make sure that it was Wu Fengdeng.

His legs trembled immediately and he almost collapsed to the ground.

"See, see ...

I thought that I had been eating nutritious food all year round, and my physique was extremely strong. I had practiced the art of fighting and conquering very quickly, and today I came here with the goal of being the number one recruit.

But he never thought that this ragged lowly man could lift 800 kilograms and break his own record.

Moreover, I also said harsh words to him...

"Eight hundred kilograms, even veteran soldiers who have fought in battles still find it difficult, but for a new soldier like you, it's really shocking."

Wang Hu walked slowly towards him in leather boots, staring at Wu Fengdeng in front of him, then stretched out his big hand and patted him on the shoulder.

This beat may seem simple, but it actually involves gathering energy in the palm of the hand. Between two and three beats, it has caused resonance in Wu Fengdeng's qi and blood.

The thickly bearded mouth gradually curled up.

"I see. You have condensed your Qi and blood and entered the Skin Refining Stage, becoming a true warrior."

"Musha!"

It can be said that a single stone caused a thousand ripples, and the surrounding eyes suddenly turned to it, and exclamations came one after another.

Wu Fengdeng nodded slightly, clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang. Without your gift of red blood, I would not have achieved this."

He was able to advance and consolidate in the Skin Refining Stage within a month, and Zhu Yanxue also played a huge role in that.

After tasting the sweetness, Wu Fengdeng entered the vanguard camp with a new goal.

Get more red blood!

This kind of thing that replenishes qi and blood is also included in the monthly rewards of the Vanguard Camp. If you perform well during training, you can receive a piece of high-quality Vermillion Blood that month.

This is much more precious than food supplies!
Wang Hu's eyes showed a little relief, and he said calmly: "You are a good candidate. The Vanguard Battalion needs good soldiers like you."

"Go down."

"Yes."

Wu Fengdeng bowed and stepped back, and the selection continued.

All the new recruits, no matter they were poor people in tattered coats or those young masters, were full of envy.

Wang Hu's words just now have already confirmed Wu Fengdeng's success, and the remaining recruits can only compete for the remaining two places.

And he is a warrior!
He was just a wandering refugee living from hand to mouth a month ago. No one would not envy his talent.

Wu Fengdeng stood at the side and exchanged glances with Qiao Li not far away as if he had some connection with her.

Qiao Li wiped his nose with his sleeve and quickly leaned forward. "Brother Wu, Brother Wu, hey, I was blind and said something bad just now."

"You are a magnanimous person, don't take it to heart, don't take it to heart!"

He is not stupid. He will have to pay for his mistakes and has to admit his mistakes.

Wu Fengdeng is a genius who has become a warrior just one month after joining the army. He will definitely be a big player in the future!

If you don’t lick it now, when will you lick it?
Wu Fengdeng smiled calmly and didn't say anything. Instead, he stretched out his thumb and index finger and rubbed them back and forth.

Qiao Li's eyes were startled for a moment, and then he seemed to understand something and quickly put his hand into his arms.

"Brother Wu, I understand! This is my honor to you!"

More than fifty copper coins were stuffed into Wu Fengdeng's hands, including a few silver nuggets the size of red beans.

If all of them were converted into copper coins, there would be more than a hundred coins.

with honesty!
Wu Fengdeng is a reasonable man. Since others have expressed their opinions in this way, of course all past grudges must be written off.

"Brother Qiao, you are too polite. How can I be embarrassed?"

"Of course, of course. I'll have to rely on Brother Wu to take care of me in the future!"

"You're too kind. Actually, I'm not cold at all. This winter coat is quite comfortable for me."

"……I see!"

……

In a moment, Wu Fengdeng wrapped himself in the soft and clean cotton coat and felt warm.

Qiao Li stuffed his hands into his sleeves, laughing with snot running down his nose.

Then the selection was over. Among the new recruits, Qiao Li ranked third, and he was also a well-prepared young man.

In the heavy snow, Wang Hu dismissed the rest of the idle people and only kept the ten people who passed the selection.

"You are all capable people under my command. When you enter the Vanguard Camp in the future, you still need to practice diligently and strive to be the best. Don't embarrass me."

"Okay, go back today to pack your bedding and say goodbye to your comrades. Gather here at noon tomorrow. I will take you to the vanguard camp."

He was still so concise and to the point, leaving only a few words before walking away.

Wu Fengdeng did not go back directly. Instead, he took the money that Qiao Li gave him as a gift, bought five roast chickens, two lamb legs and a few jars of rice wine and returned to the blacksmith shop.

He spent about thirty dollars and saved the rest.

A month is a short time, but it is also a long time. This small blacksmith shop is also his starting point in this world.

One cannot forget one's roots.

The fire in the stove was burning brightly, and the orange light filled the room with warmth.

It was a rare sumptuous dinner in the blacksmith shop, which made the new recruits, who had not seen meat for several years, eat till their mouths were drooling.

Brother Wu is awesome!

Old Hu, who had just returned from vacation, walked in and his eyes trembled slightly when he saw this scene.

"pass?"

Wu Fengdeng nodded, then handed him a jar of reserved rice wine.

Old Hu sat down with a smack of his lips, looked him up and down, and smiled bitterly with some disbelief.

"Damn it, I just asked you to make up the numbers, but who would have thought you would actually pass me!"

"In this case, I, Old Hu, have lost a skilled craftsman!"

Wu Fengdeng smiled and said, "I will come back if I have time."

Although his [Craftsman] skills are maxed out, his proficiency is not high. He will have to come back and improve his proficiency if he has time in the future.

After all, these skills are universal. If they are all practiced to perfection, they will form an extremely solid foundation for cultivation.
