Chapter 702: Registration, He’s A Hotshot, Three Types Of Armies
Boom!
A loud explosion ensued as the entrance gate to the barracks was blasted into the compound.
In an instant, everyone within the barracks scurried in panic.
“Sh*t, what’s that sound?!”
“What a powerful energy blast. What just happened?”
“Enemy intruder! Enemy intruder!”
No one knew who exactly screamed about an enemy attack.
The entire army within the barracks showed up at the gates, their hands brandished with weapons as they stared deadly at Chu Kuangren and Emperor Jin Xuan.
There were more than a few dozen Emperors within the platoon.
Emperor Jin Xuan could not help but gulp in fear as his Emperor’s body shuddered under the stares of so many pairs of eyes. He had never felt so threatened before.
On the other hand, Chu Kuangren was unfazed.
The only difference was that Chu Kuangren seemed mildly irritated.
“I swear I held back. How’s it that I’ve put a little too much force again…”
When Emperor Jin Xuan heard that, his eyes widened dramatically.
What the f*ck?!
Who the heck was his travel companion?!
The Emperors who were previously teasing the duo were stunned too. They could only stare at Chu Kuangren in disbelief.
Where the hell did this person come from?!
“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and stop the commander!”
An Empress yelled.
The remaining Emperors immediately rushed between the parties and prevented a deadly clash from erupting.
“It’s all just a misunderstanding.”
“Commander, everyone, don’t worry. It’s just a mistake.”
“They’re the rookie Emperors who are here to register. We just wanted to test their powers out by having them get through the gate on their own.”
The thin Emperor hastily explained.
The person in charge of the platoon was a loft, bearded commander. He glared deadly at the thin Emperor and said, “You people sure love to fool around. Now that the gate is destroyed, who’s going to pay for this?!”
The thin Emperor chuckled dryly and said to Chu Kuangren sternly, “That’s right. How could you do this? Who gave you permission to tear down the gate? We’ll let you off the hook since this is your first day here, but no more next time, alright?”
Chu Kuangren looked at him and answered, “You told us that you would foot this bill yourself if we tore it down.”
The thin Emperor was stunned. Well, it seemed like Chu Kuangren was not the kind who would play ball.
Growing impatient, the commander stared at the thin Emperor and said, “I’ll pay for this door from your paycheck. Mess it up again, and you won’t be seeing another paycheck forever.”
“Understood.” The thin Emperor almost shed a tear.
“And for the rest…”
“Yes, sir!” The remaining Emperors immediately straightened their backs in unison.
“Bring them to the registration counter.”
“Understood!”
The Empress approached Chu Kuangren passionately. “Hey, little one. The name’s Fei Xue. What’s yours?”
“Chu Kuangren.”
The commander, who was just about to leave, immediately halted his footsteps and turned around.
A few other Emperors who were tailing him reacted similarly as well.
“So that’s Chu Kuangren? The little guy who once stopped the demonic realm from descending upon Firmament Star. I didn’t think he’d ascend into an Emperor so quickly.”
“I’ve heard from the other Emperors that he has caused quite a commotion on Firmament Star. He has turned many orthodoxies upside down and even made the God Worshipping Cult suffer a huge loss.”
“Well, I’ve finally managed to put a face to the name.”
“Heh, never would I have thought the famed Chu Kuangren would show up at Stronghold Seventeen. He must be the one who destroyed our gate.”
“With his abilities, he doesn’t look like a newly-ascended Emperor at all. It seems like Stronghold Seventeen is just about to get more happening.”
The Emperors chatted.
Emperor Jin Xuan was clueless about the situation.
He had always assumed Chu Kuangren to be just another rookie. Only now was it apparent to him that there was more to Chu Kuangren than meets the eyes.
An effortless palm technique was all it took to destroy the gate.
His name had seemed to arouse quite a discussion too.
“I’ve long heard about how good-looking you were from my sisters. We were even secretly watching you with our Emperor Thoughts back then. Your reputation precedes you.”
Empress Fei Xue exclaimed in awe.
Chu Kuangren was dumbfounded by her remarks.
Was he spied on by a group of Empress back then?
Even while he was showering and sleeping…
Hiss!
Those perverts!
The corner of Chu Kuangren’s mouth twitched.
“Come on. Let’s get you registered.”
Empress Fei Xue chuckled lightly and said.
“Who is he?”
Emperor Jin Xuan muttered under his breath as he stared at Chu Kuangren’s back.
The thin Emperor tapped on his shoulder and said, “Didn’t you come here with him? Don’t you know who he is?”
“I’ve been meditating behind closed doors before my ascension and have only recently awakened. I have no idea what has happened in the past few years,” said Emperor Jin Xuan.
“He’s a hotshot amongst the Emperors.”
The thin Emperor stroked his chin and said, “Come, let’s get you registered too. We’ll talk along the way.”
…
At the registration counter.
Apart from the mysterious Daoist Celestials, it was compulsory for everyone to register themselves upon arrival at the stronghold.
The registration was seamless. All it required was a drop of blood, and the person would receive a soldier tag and be registered in the records.
Their blood would then be imbued and processed using a strange technique.
If a soldier perished on the battlefield, the stronghold would be alerted because of that blood. This helped in managing and allocating resources on the battlefield.
“Well, it’ll be an honor fighting alongside you.”
Empress Fei Xue said with a smile.
“That’s too high of a compliment, Daoist Sister.”
“By the way, since this is your first time here, do you know where you’ll be staying?” Empress Fei Xue asked.
“Is accommodation not included?”
“Well, there are three types of armies in this stronghold. They’re the royal soldiers, mercenaries, and filibusters!” Empress Fei Xue explained.
The royal soldiers were a military unit that comprised of personnel of the command headquarters. They were the strongest amongst all soldiers and in charge of overseeing the entire stronghold. In times of need, the command headquarters could call all reserve royal soldiers to arm.
The mercenaries were soldiers who were attached to several local entities. They were mostly owned by grassroots orthodoxies that had been founded over the years.
The filibusters were those who neither attached themselves to the command headquarters nor the orthodoxies. They were mostly small independent groups of cultivators or lone rangers who would fight the war on their own accords.
“If you wish to access free food and accommodations, just register yourself as a royal soldier,” said Empress Fei Xue.
Chu Kuangren went silent for a while before he answered, “I’ll think about it.”
“Hmm? Do you happen to have an orthodoxy here?”
“Heh, not really.”
Chu Kuangren shook his head and chuckled.
Meanwhile, Emperor Jin Xuan and the thin Emperor had just arrived at the registration counter. Emperor Jin Xuan could only stare at Chu Kuangren in awe.
After hearing a fair amount of stories from the thin Emperor, Emperor Jin Xuan was disturbed.
Emperor Jin Xuan felt like he was insignificant compared to Chu Kuangren.
