Chapter 1132
"Zhang Han!"
Hearing the commander's call, Zhang Han quickly strode forward .
"I want to ask you something . Do you think that I'm opinionated?" An odd look appeared on Jiang Chen's face as he said this, defying Zhang Han's expectation .
Zhang Han hesitated for a moment and asked, "Commander, do you want me to reply truthfully?"
"Of course!"
"When I fought you last time, I really felt like you were itching for a beating, especially when I saw that mysterious smile plastered on your face . "
Only Zhang Han could be so frank and candid; ordinary people didn't dare say such things to Jiang Chen . However, Jiang Chen didn't get angry, and he stroked his chin .
"Commander, the reason behind this is quite simple . People mistakenly assume that you are acting dumb on purpose because you always keep a low profile but still aren't afraid of getting into trouble . "
"Your wager with the Crane Battalion is a suitable example, and the Crane Battalion's soldiers probably assumed that you agreed just because you aren't willing to admit your mistakes . "
Hearing this, Jiang Chen chuckled and looked at the thousand soldiers standing nearby .
"However, they obviously can't imagine that you possess remarkable abilities and can condense about a thousand wisps of Soldier Energy in only a few days . "
Zhang Han wasn't trying to flatter him; he really accepted Jiang Chen wholeheartedly . On the first day, Zhang Han was anxious that the commander was just acting recklessly, but Jiang Chen soon proved his ability . If Jiang Chen continued at this pace, it wouldn't be difficult for him to surpass Jiang Xin .
"We will stop here for today . Go back to the camp," Jiang Chen passed down the order .
"Commander, don't you need to practice for a while?" asked a worried soldier .
It wasn't like everyone understood the speed of Jiang Chen's progress . The soldiers merely released their Soldier Energy . As for how much of it Jiang Chen could condense, only the commander himself knew that . They couldn't discern the Soldier Energy or see it unless Jiang Chen fought while using it . To keep this matter a secret, Jiang Chen had only informed Zhang Han and his first followers anout his progress .
"There isn't any need," Jiang Chen replied, then brought the soldiers along with him into the camp .
"He's really relaxed . "
When the Xuanji Army's other battalions witnessed Jiang Chen coming back at nightfall, they all shook their heads and chuckled bitterly . Jiang Xin of the Crane Battalion was setting off every day with her soldiers before daybreak, and she only came back late at night . She strove hard and managed to condense more than a thousand wisps of Soldier Energy . Regardless of how they observed this matter, it still seemed that Jiang Chen would lose . As they thought about the spirit stone he'd wagered, they all thought it was a pity .
Soldier Energy condensation would only be useful so long as Jiang Chen was fighting alongside an army . At crucial moments, he still needed to depend upon himself, which was why Jiang Chen was still making preparations for the Wizard Clan's banquet . Time passed quickly, and when only three days were left until the drill, the mission to explore the Qi Li Continent was temporarily suspended, and they focused their attention on this major event .
On the day of the public drill, the atmosphere in the army camp was solemn . All battalions were getting ready . They would all proceed toward Ling Long Palace and comply with the instructions . However, the people had not forgotten the wager between the Tiger and Crane Battalions . Jiang Xin and Jiang Chen's gazes met .
Just when they were about to announce the outcome, a squadron brazenly intruded on the camp . Though this squadron did not have more than a hundred soldiers, in their presence, none among Xuanji Army's five battalions dared utter a single word . This squadron's soldiers were all wearing shining scarlet armor . They looked outstanding and heroic . They were all wearing capes that reached the ground, and they walked forward arrogantly .
"It's the Ling Long Army . "
Jiang Chen recognized them . These soldiers all belonged to Empress Ling Long's main army . Still, he couldn't understand why they had come to the Xuanji Army's camp . However, he noticed that, upon seeing their leader, the expressions of the five battalions' soldiers became unsightly .
"You will always just be a mob . "
