Chapter 1039 (2/2)

The Eastsea Fleet was hoping to nurture him into a food system t.i.tled Douluo in the future. There were only records of two food system t.i.tled Douluos on the entire continent, but both of them were over 80 years of age, so there was no way that they'd serve in the military. If their fleet could have a food system t.i.tled Douluo on their side, then they could almost be referred to as the unkillable fleet!

As such, Xu Lizhi was being regarded as one of the most important talents in the entire fleet.

Compared to Xu Lizhi, Ye Xinglan had walked a completely different path. As a six-ring Soul Emperor, it wouldn't be impossible for her to have received a major rank if she had joined any other legion, but that didn't apply to the Eastsea Fleet. The Eastsea Fleet had extremely rigorous requirements, and they already had many powerful beings to begin with. As such, not only did one have to possess a lofty cultivation rank, they also had to possess sufficient combat prowess, and those two weren't always equivalent to one another. There were many scholarly Soul Masters with no minimal practical combat experience, they were often next to completely useless after joining the military.

As such, the Eastsea Legion had a clear-cut rule, which stated that the highest military rank that could be given to pure battle Soul Masters when first joining the legion was the captain rank. As such, Ye Xinglan received the captain rank, and she climbed all the way to the lieutenant colonel rank in such a short time purely through her own powers.

The Eastsea Legion revered individual power, and there were all types of compet.i.tions constantly being held within the legion. Ye Xinglan quickly swept through three individual compet.i.tions with her immense powers, securing three consecutive champions.h.i.+p t.i.tles that finally drew attention from the higher-ups.

She was extremely beautiful, and had displayed ultrpowerful combat prowess, so the higher-ups of the legion naturally began to pay more and more attention to her.

Not long after that, she was able to use her unstoppable sword intent to defeat a Soul Douluo, who was also a two-word battle armor master, and she was promoted to the lieutenant colonel rank as a result. During that battle, Ye Xinglan herself had also sustained severe injuries, and she had adopted an extremely reckless method of battle where she was risking her life to take down her opponent. In the end, her opponent succ.u.mbed to her devastating sword intent in the end.

From that day forth, Ye Xinglan also received the nickname of Battle G.o.ddess. Everyone in the legion knew of the Starlight Battle G.o.ddess, and as opposed to the StarG.o.d Sword, the martial soul that Ye Xinglan had reported to the legion was the Starlight Sword.

After joining the legion, she and Xu Lizhi were split into different departments, but both of them had heeded Tang Wulin's advice and began to practice mecha piloting. They had already grasped the basics at this point, and Xu Lizhi was taking this particularly seriously. The legion gave him extensive support when it came to resources, so he was able to improve very quickly in his mecha piloting skills.

Even as she was in silent meditation, Ye Xinglan's heart was currently filled with raging battle intent. There was a Star Cabin close beside her, and it was the most expensive model currently on the market.

She had represented the Eastsea Legion in the compet.i.tion, and she was the only member of the legion who had progressed to the top 16. The higher-ups of the legion had already promised her that they would promote her to the colonel rank if she were to make it into the final 8, and if she could secure the champions.h.i.+p t.i.tle, they would promote her to the senior colonel rank.

……

At the summit of a mountain. A figure that wasn't particularly tall nor broad was slowly throwing one punch after another. Wind and clouds suddenly began to surge around the mountain summit, and the vast expanse of clouds in the air gradually converged to form a ma.s.sive fist projection. Even though the projection only lasted for a second, it was extremely clear and spectacular to behold.

The figure turned around before throwing another punch, and it didn't appear to be all that powerful, but howling winds erupted over the entire mountain summit once again. It was if she were a Great Beast who was capable of manipulating the wind and clouds!

Every punch she unleashed was extremely slow, but every single one of these punches was stirring up the entire surrounding s.p.a.ce. A vortex that was constructed from cloud and mist gradually began to take shape in the sky. At the same time, her movements gradually sped up, and with every punch she unleashed, the air would tremor violently, and the vortex would also expand slightly.

A series of soul rings emerged from beneath her feet, consisting of two purples and four blacks, a top-grade soul ring configuration for a Soul Emperor.

All of a sudden, she raised her head and let loose a long cry. The sound lingered in the air and refused to fade, and the clouds in the sky suddenly descended before being drawn into her fists. Every punch that she unleashed thereafter formed a cloud vortex that was visible to the naked eye, and each successive punch was more powerful than the previous one. The air was trembling violently in the face of her fists, and it seemed that even the mountains in the distance were quaking before her power.

Only after around a quarter of an hour did she finally stop what she was doing and allow her hands to hang by her sides in a relaxed manner. However, as a gust of wind below past, a large plume of powdered stone rose up into the air, and the mountain summit had been lowered by an entire foot. All of this was the result of the impact of her fists.
