School flower's personal master

Chapter 12813

There was a moment of silence, then someone couldn't help but shout, "Learn it! You must learn it!"

The others chimed in, "Yes! We'll learn!"

The crowd was immediately filled with righteous indignation.

Xiahou Ren strode forward, his face beaming with smiles: "Your Excellency is wise! After this battle, the entire Demon-Slaying Army is completely convinced of our superiority, and we will surely achieve twice the results with half the effort from now on! I will do my utmost to push forward the rotation training!"

Lin Yi glanced at him and said meaningfully, "The rotation training will proceed as usual. You will be in charge after I leave."

go? !

Xiahou Ren lowered his head, his voice so respectful it was almost dripping with humility: "Yes, sir."

I was just feeling frustrated, but now I'm immediately cheered up.

Today's attack was indeed a trap set by Lin Yi, rendering all his previous plans futile.

But as long as Lin Yi himself leaves, he has a million ways to turn the situation around!

Night falls, at the Happy Tomb.

Zhao Lie, his body wrapped in bandages, slammed a wine bowl on the table, gritting his teeth: "I swear I will not rest until I avenge this humiliating disgrace!"

The other two high-ranking officials were also filled with righteous indignation.

Even so, the thought of being mercilessly crushed during the day still sent chills down his spine.

Xiahou Ren patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Today was just an accident, don't be discouraged. Lin Yi will be leaving soon, and how the rotation training is carried out is up to us."

Qian Heng frowned and said, "But everyone is attracted by that damn formation, and many people are wavering. How can we bring them back?"

"There's no need to pull it back."

Xiahou Ren lowered his voice and said, "They're just intimidated for a moment. Once they actually start training, they'll find it's not all that great."

“In this process, if we guide them a little, some people will naturally become passive and slack off, and various frictions will increase.”

"After a while, those people from Tianwu Hall naturally couldn't stay any longer."

Zhao Lie and the other two's eyes lit up: "That's right, the Demon Extermination Army is our home turf, how could we really lose to those brats?"

As he said this, he had completely forgotten the miserable state he had been in during the day.

Xiahou Ren sneered inwardly, but did not say anything.

Zhao Lie and the other two were merely knives in his eyes; he never intended to achieve anything with their help.

He has other cards to play.

Now, everyone's attention, including Lin Yi's, is focused on Zhao Lie and the other two, which is exactly the effect he wanted.

In the days that followed, Li Yu and his men established their authority in one battle. Although the Demon Extermination Army no longer underestimated them and began to participate in regular training, there were still some who were not convinced.

In addition, due to Zhao Lie and his group's private instigation, troublemakers would often emerge to challenge them.

The reason is simple: to redeem the Demon Extermination Army and prevent it from being completely outclassed by the Heavenly Martial Hall.

It's all aboveboard, and no one can find fault with it.

Li Yu and the others accepted all offers of help.

Moreover, they sometimes take on challenges on their own initiative.

The back-and-forth exchanges subtly created a competitive atmosphere.

Every challenge that seemed so intense to everyone eventually turned into an investigation report and was placed on Lin Yi's desk.

The vast majority of these people were on Lin Yi's previous list of key individuals to be investigated.

From beginning to end, all of this was part of a plan.

As a participant throughout the entire process, Lu Jianxiong was deeply impressed.

As Lin Yi's superior, his strength was beyond doubt, and the entire army was amazed by his abilities.

But strength alone cannot always determine everything.

In Lu Jianxiong's eyes, the methods he now displays, beyond his actual strength, are what truly make him terrifying.

Lu Jianxiong couldn't help but silently mourn for Xiahou Ren.

Following a master like this, one can have a good future if they behave honestly, but if one is extremely ambitious and engages in all sorts of underhanded tactics, they are simply courting death.

Lin Yi flipped through it once and nodded slightly: "It's almost done."

Soon, the entire Demon-Slaying Army received the news.

Lin Yi had to return to Tianjun on business, and Lu Jianxiong took over his daily affairs, while Xiahou Ren remained in charge of the rotation training.

Upon hearing the news, Xiahou Ren was both delighted and furious.

The good news is that Lin Yi couldn't hold on any longer and was leaving so soon.

What's infuriating is that despite his utmost efforts to please Lin Yi, serving him with utmost respect, Lin Yi still chose Lu Jianxiong!

Although he planned that the power of the Demon Extermination Army would eventually fall into his hands, things would definitely go much more smoothly if he had Lin Yi's full authorization.

Now, however, he has no choice but to take risks for some things.

Although he looked down on Lu Jianxiong, he had to admit that Lu Jianxiong was different from those good-for-nothings like Zhao Lie, and was definitely not so easy to manipulate.

That night, the Happy Tomb.

Sitting opposite Xiahou Ren was not Zhao Lie and his group, but a completely unfamiliar face who had never appeared in the Demon Extermination Army before.

Simply put, this is not human.

Although its overall appearance is similar to that of a human, only taller, this creature has a pair of long horns on its forehead and is surrounded by an inescapable aura of evil.

All of this is clearly a sign of evil.

This image would be completely familiar to veteran soldiers of the Demon Extermination Army.

This demon calls himself the First Demon Under the Saint, and is the offspring of the Demon Sub-Saint Saint Taiyi. He also calls himself Saint Invincible.

Although its name doesn't have much meaning, this demon's strength is indeed extraordinary. It is a top-tier king-level demon, comparable to a two-zhang-tall Dharma Aspect expert.

He had previously fought Shen Wudu head-on several times and always managed to escape unscathed.

Of course, Shen Wudu's various achievements were all just a performance, as he was a puppet who had submitted to Sheng Taiyi.

Using him as an endorsement, the true value of Sheng Wudi's strength naturally needs to be discounted.

Even so, he remains one of the most dangerous figures on the front lines of the battlefield.

There is no doubt about that.

Xiahou swallowed hard.

It's quite ironic, really.

Shen Wudu replaced him by colluding with evil spirits, and now that he wants to regain power, he can only do the same.

It's not my fault, it's all Lin Yi's fault!

If Lin Yi had chosen me, the Demon Extermination Army would still be the Demon Extermination Army, and there would be no need for these shady dealings. It's all because Lin Yi misjudged people!

Across from him, Saint Invincible took a sip of his aged wine with a look of pure enjoyment, clicking his tongue in admiration.

"You humans aren't much in other areas, but the wine you brew is truly excellent. Once this is done, send me a group of people who know how to brew wine, and I'll take them back and have them brew wine every day!"

"Let's build a few mass graves, then we can drink to our hearts' content!"

Xiahou Ren remained silent, but smiled obsequiously: "Once the mission is accomplished, this little matter will be nothing."

As he spoke, he took out a garrison map from his bosom and slowly unfolded it.

The various troop rotation times and troop deployment details are all clearly marked.

Saint Invincible glanced at it twice, then excitedly licked his lips: "With your help from within and without, we can wipe out the entire Demon-Slaying Army in one fell swoop!" (End of this chapter)
