Chapter 329 – Launch

There was a type of rarely seen occurrence that happened when the Spirit Hall produces spirit generals, and it was called Replacement.
Replacement referred to when the card at the front had to be replaced with a new one, which was rarely seen. The spirit cards on the door being destroyed would usually occur when the process completed, as they would all be destroyed together. That is because the new spirit general was cutting off all his previous ties, and was the sign of completion.
But there were always exceptions, like currently, where the first gold spirit card on the eighth level would suddenly be destroyed. That meant that the spirit general had a sudden increase in devouring speed.
That was the time when the replacement was needed.
Bing instantly placed another rank eight spirit card on the first and third squares without hesitation.
The two gold cards lit up at the same time, and were extremely dazzling.
Bing was full of anticipation. Replacement was a rarely seen occurrence, and would often produce a spirit general that was extremely special. Bing had met other Replacements before, but never before on a low rank spirit general. And Tang Yi was originally a gold grade Staff Sergeant, which was also rare.
The light from the two spirit cards stabilized, and maintained for 15 hours before dimming down.
Suddenly, all the cards crumbled and were destroyed, changing into smoke and disappearing.
The bronze door slowly opened, and Bing’s eyes opened widely.
A tall and sturdy figure with a mighty aura slowly walked out.
“Warrant Officer Tang Yi is here to report for duty!”
His low voice could strike fear in people’s hearts. Bing then noticed Tang Yi’s figure, which did not change much, other than him being slightly taller and bulkier, the most eye catching change was his Zanbato.
(TN: Is that a shikai coming?)
The originally grey sword body had become pitch black, and it was obviously heavier. While the seal of Southern Cross Constellation was clearly imprinted on the black sword body.
Ethereal Solidification!
That was….a Unique Military Leader!
Bing’s body trembled.
The term ‘Unique’ came from a long lineage. Before Immortal Martial gave the name of unique martial technique, very few people knew that during the era of the three big armies, they too used the term unique. However, they used it to name some military leaders. In that time, military leaders were in huge numbers, and almost all the strong martial artists were military leaders, but there were some military leaders who were special. In their own special aspects, they had attainments that far exceeded others, and these military leaders were hailed as Unique Military Leaders!
Every single Unique Military Leader was different from each other.
Spirit military leaders were seldom Unique Military Leaders. They were very distinct, and that was the Ethereal Solidification. Spirit generals were of ethereal form, like Tang Yi, regardless of his body or his Zanbato, they were all ethereal in the past. But currently the Zanbato he wielded had gone through Ethereal Solidification, and became a real body.
If Tang Yi died, the Zanbato would not disappear with him, but continue to live on in the world.
For the same level military leaders, Unique Military Leaders were far stronger than ordinary military leaders.
In the past, The Southern Cross Army was extremely strong because they had far more Unique Military Leaders than the other two armies. But for the Spirit Hall to produce a Unique Spirit Military Leader, he had heard of it before, but it was the first time for him to witness it.
But this would be the lowest level of Unique Military Leader of the army history, a Warrant Officer Rank Unique Military Leader.
Bing laughed at himself in ridicule, feeling that he was never truly content, for him to meet a rarely seen Unique Spirit Military Leader, yet he was still complaining that the rank was too low.
For Tang Yi to rise to the rank of Warrant Officer, Bing was already very happy.
And he was even a Unique Military Leader.
“What’s your commanding power?” Bing asked Tang Yi, he could not grasp how much a Unique Military Leader of the Warrant Officer rank could command.
“500.” Tang Yi replied.
“500?” Bing was startled, then nodded his head. That was out of his calculations. A normal Warrant Officer could command 200, and for Tang Yi to command 500, a Unique Military Leader truly was powerful, for his commanding power was already the same standard as a Lieutenant. But Bing had already calmed down, a Unique Military Leader was powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, he was still just a Warrant Officer, so he could not expect too much.
“Do you still wish to lead the Lupus Army?” Bing asked.
“Yes!” Tang Yi replied straightforwardly.
“En, very good, then from today on, you will be the main commander of the Lupus Army.” Bing said solemnly, then turned to face Tang Chou: “Warrant Officer Tang Chou, I will now report your mission.”
Tang Chou’s solemn face replied: “Master, please!”
“You will be stationed at the training barracks at Three Spirits City, and have two tasks. One of them is to help Pi Pa establish the planning room. But now there isn’t much to plan, so your second task is to supervise the training barracks’ daily training schedule. Understand?” Bing looked at Tang Chou.
“Yes!” Tang Chou replied solemnly.
“Alright, you can head to Three Spirits City now.”
“Yes!” Tang Chou turned and flew in the direction of Three Spirits City.
Bing looked at the Suicide Room. There was not a bit of movement from it.
Tang Tian, all the best!
Bing’s heart shouted lightly, and then without hesitation, he turned: “Let’s go, we will go back to the Lupus Tribe.”
When Bing and Tang Yi returned, they received yet another piece of bad news. Ye Jiu had given them an ultimatum, with only 5 days of time. If they do not hand over the Safe and Sound Saber, they will have to take responsibility for the consequences.
An ultimatum, but Bing casually threw it into the rubbish bin.
His heart was yet filled with worries. Until now, 20 days had already passed, but there was not one movement from anyone in the group.
Only 5 days were left…..
Bing looked at the sand dune that was afar. The bright red setting sun dyed the sand dune red, it really was the omen of a huge war.
Young man Tang, you must do your best!
Bing muttered in his heart, and when he returned back to senses, he could not help but laugh. He had actually unknowingly placed all his trust on that unreliable fellow.
That meant that, Bing surprisingly found out, his heart had always felt that the crucial victory was on Tang Tian.
That stupid crazy young man who goes into spasms frequently?
Alright, if it was comparing intelligence, the only person he could win against was Ah Mo Li.
