The senior colonel faltered slightly at the sight of his Blood G.o.d Bracelet before abruptly raising his head. ”You're from the Blood G.o.d Battalion?”

Tang Wulin nodded in response. ”Blood G.o.d Battalion fringe member, Tang Wulin, reporting for duty!”

The senior colonel examined his Blood G.o.d Bracelet, and said, ”Your Blood G.o.d Bracelet contains two types of accolades, the second of which is battle accolades. You only partic.i.p.ated in one day of the battle, so you only get accolades for that one day. In total, you earned... 16,800 accolades?”

His voice suddenly rose a few octaves, and after some calculations, he continued, ”In addition to the accolades you receive from standardization as a melee combatant, you've earned a total of 21,400 accolades.”

Tang Wulin's eyes immediately lit up. Over 20,000 accolades? And these were battle accolades, not accolades earned through forging!

He had received so many accolades because he'd constantly been fighting at the very front during the battle, and there was no lack of powerful abyssal creatures like Ba'ans that had perished in the face of his Golden Dragon Spear. This was why he'd received over 10,000 accolades prior to standardization, even though he'd only fought on the first day. At the same time, he also received some accolades as a reward for forcing that Black Empress into retreat.

Different amounts of accolades were given for different levels of abyssal creatures, and for creatures like Demonic Enchantresses and Black Empresses, one would receive accolades as a reward just for being able to battle them for set periods of time.

”You joined the Blood G.o.d Battalion?” Long Yuxue was just about to head to her promotion ceremony when she quickly rushed back before grabbing onto Tang Wulin's hand. She stared at the thorned Blood G.o.d Bracelet on his wrist, and a strong sense of envy appeared in her eyes.

Everyone in the Blood G.o.d Legion knew that they weren't the main guardians of the abyssal pa.s.sageway. Instead, that duty fell upon the shoulders of the nine Blood G.o.ds of the Blood G.o.d Battalion. After officially becoming a Blood G.o.d, one would immediately be elevated to the major general rank. This meant that they were constantly required to remain in the legion, but it was a scintillating honor for someone to become a Blood G.o.d, and even their descendants would benefit from this as the federation would give them special benefits.

All descendants of a Blood G.o.d within three generations had many special rights in the federation, and Blood G.o.ds themselves had fringe voting rights in the federal parliament.

They were the true guardians of the federation, and they were revered by countless people.

Tang Wulin replied in a natural manner, ”I'm just a fringe member.”

A peculiar look immediately appeared on Long Yuxue's face. The Blood G.o.d Legion obviously didn't just consist of the nine Blood G.o.ds; some exceptional members of the Blood G.o.d Legion were enlisted as fringe members of the Blood G.o.d Battalion and even backup Blood G.o.ds. This was the first step to becoming a future Blood G.o.d!

She could already deduce that Tang Wulin had most likely been enlisted as a fringe member of the Blood G.o.d Battalion due to his Golden Dragon Spear, but even so, it was still a ma.s.sive honor to be able to join the Blood G.o.d Battalion, especially after taking into account the fact that he'd only been in the Blood G.o.d Legion for less than a month! She had been living in the Blood G.o.d Legion all her life, so how could she not be envious?

After joining the Blood G.o.d Battalion, Tang Wulin no longer belonged to any other department of the Blood G.o.d Legion. Instead, he took orders solely from the Blood G.o.d Battalion, and she wouldn't be able to command him to do anything from now on.

She couldn't help but recall back to what her father had said to her. He came from Shrek Academy and was the captain of the current generation of Shrek's Seven Monsters. A diamond would s.h.i.+ne no matter where it was placed, and even in the Blood G.o.d Legion, which was rife with brilliant prodigies, he was already beginning to prove himself after only less than a month here.

At the very least, the first and second battalions of the Blood Division's Iron Will Corps were aware that there was a soldier capable of releasing a domain that could drastically enhance the combat prowess of all ally units.

It was exactly because of Tang Wulin's Violent Golden Dragon Domain that the melee combat battalions were able to kill so many enemies on that day while minimizing casualties. Both the first and second battalions had a very good first impression of Tang Wulin, and even Jiang Wuyue was full of glowing praise for him, and was adamant that they were brothers.

He'd already reached such heights after less than a month; what would become of him in one year? In two years? Wasn't he going to eventually become one of the nine Blood G.o.ds?

Long Yuxue was getting carried away by her train of thought, and Tang Wulin reminded, ”Superior, you should go to your promotion ceremony now.”

”Oh.” Only then did Long Yuxue return to her senses, but her excitement from being promoted to the lieutenant colonel rank had waned significantly.

Tang Wulin was also quite curious about what rank he'd be elevated to with his accolades. The accolades that Long Yuxue had saved up most likely didn't exceed 20,000, yet it was already enough to promote her from major to lieutenant colonel. In contrast, his accolades had already exceeded 20,000, so surely he'd be granted a very significant promotion!

Tang Wulin looked on as Long Yuxue's two bars and one star became two bars and two stars, and he was filled with excitement as he also strode toward the stage.

”Members of the Blood G.o.d Battalion can't be promoted here; your military rank will be determined by the Blood G.o.d Battalion. You can leave now.” The military official that was handing out promotions immediately poured a figurative bucket of cold water over his head.

After becoming a member of the Blood G.o.d Battalion, he answered only to the Blood G.o.d Battalion, so the legion wouldn't even grant him promotions anymore.

Tang Wulin could only turn to Long Yuxue for help. ”Superior...”
