Chapter 273 Candidates for Blue Star Governor
The special recruit from Nanjiang Province behind Han Keke also questioned, "After our Captain Han discovered the risk of failing the exam, she immediately began to work hard to hunt down alien beasts."
On the ninth day, she had clearly climbed back onto the leaderboard, and on the last day, the captain went to the military training area early and hunted down two hundred alien beasts.
You overtook her on the last day, and you must have hunted 300 strange beasts on that last day.
Even Shao Keyu from Lingnan Province couldn't hunt three hundred strange beasts in a single day, so our captain suspects that you mobilized all the special students in your province to help you hunt them.
The competition for the Northwest General Star individual rankings has rules: each person can only bring a maximum of two support characters.
When Luo Zhixun saw that the special students from the other province had come out to speak, she quickly chimed in, "You've misunderstood. Our captain hunted the alien beasts alone, without any assistance from beginning to end."
Our military training mission in Dongchuan Province is merely to hunt down more than 300 first-tier alien beasts. Among the special recruits in our province, only five people are truly capable of fighting against alien beasts. Even if everyone were mobilized, it would be impossible to hunt down so many alien beasts in one day.
Moreover, the competition for the Northwest General Star has a ten-day deadline, and our Dongchuan Province's military training has only been going on for seven days.
"You mean he hunted down more than a thousand strange beasts in six days?" Han Keke couldn't help but ask.
"Impossible, right? Shao Keyu, the martial arts champion of Lingnan Province, hadn't even broken 1000 points by the sixth day of military training." The special recruit from Nanjiang Province was clearly somewhat incredulous.
"That's because our captain is proficient in a martial arts secret technique from outer space that specifically targets alien beasts, which is why we were able to do this," Luo Zhixun said.
"What kind of extraterrestrial secret technique is so powerful?"
Xu Wanqing, who was watching the scene from the sidelines, couldn't help but ask a question.
Han Keke's eyes flickered, and she suddenly remembered that Dongchuan Province, a province at the bottom of Blue Star, would have a hard time even completing a military training mission. Even if everyone were mobilized, it would be impossible to hunt so many alien beasts in one day.
So you're saying that it was really because of your own negligence that you missed out on 100,000 Star Yuan Galaxy Coins?
Galaxy Coins are used to purchase cultivation resources after attending Starry Sky University.
"You possess a secret martial arts technique to counter alien beasts from outer space, why didn't you say anything beforehand?"
Even if I start studying hard on the seventh day, I won't fail!
Chen Lie glanced at Han Keke and said, "Judging from your tone, you failed the exam because you didn't give it your all during military training. Since that's the case, you don't need to complain anymore."
Besides, do I even know you? Why didn't you give me a heads-up?
With nowhere to vent her anger, Han Keke could only utter a harsh remark: "I'll remember you. Just you wait!"
After saying that, Han Keke immediately turned around and led the group of special recruits from Nanjiang Province away.
Seeing that her rival Han Keke had left, Xu Wanqing, realizing that she couldn't possibly talk to someone from the worst province on Earth, also left without a word.
At this moment, Yan Zheng, who was ranked second on the individual points leaderboard and had been being interviewed by Blue Star Times, also came over.
He approached Chen Lie, gave him a friendly smile, and greeted him, "Hey buddy? I heard you're from Dongchuan Province?"
My name is Yan Zheng, and I'm from Dongzhe Province. For someone from Dongchuan Province to be able to win one of the seven Northwest General Stars is truly a miracle!
"Is there something you need?"
Chen Lie glanced at Yan Zheng indifferently.
Yan Zheng found Chen Lie's reaction rather strange. Logically speaking, shouldn't a province like Dongchuan, which is ranked near the bottom of Blue Star, be flattered to be greeted by a province like Chen Lie, which is ranked among the top ten on Blue Star?
Although he couldn't figure out Chen Lie's attitude, he didn't delve into it. Instead, he said, "I just heard that you, my friend, are proficient in a secret extraterrestrial martial arts technique that can subdue alien beasts. To be honest, I'm very interested in it and would be willing to exchange it for an SS-level martial art or an extraterrestrial method for cultivating qi and blood. What do you think, my friend?"
"Not interested!"
After Chen Lie finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Yan Zheng continued, "Could it be that my friend thinks my offer is too low, and therefore is unwilling to exchange?"
In that case, I can raise the price, and my friend can discuss with me what they want to exchange.
"Oh?"
Chen Lie glanced at Yan Zheng and said indifferently, "What do you have to trade with me?"
Yan Zheng thought for a moment, then said, "How about a cultivation method that originates from the outer stars and represents the Great Perfection of Qi and Blood, specifically the Rainbow Transformation stage?"
"this one?"
Yan Zheng was taken aback. With such a generous price, Chen Lie was still not satisfied?
However, he was just like everyone else, a person from a small place. Did he even know the concept of the Great Realm of Qi and Blood?
So Yan Zheng explained: "Friend, the Qi and Blood Extreme Realm is divided into two levels. You are currently only in the minor extreme realm of the Qi and Blood stage."
The second extreme realm of the Qi and Blood stage is the realm that martial arts geniuses from beyond the stars can reach. This stage is called the Great Extreme Realm of Qi and Blood, or the Realm of Qi and Blood Transformation into Rainbows.
A cultivation method that leads to the "Qi and Blood Transformation Rainbow" realm would be extremely precious even in extraterrestrial settings.
"I know."
"Perhaps my friend still feels this price isn't enough? How about I add another SS-rank martial art on top of that?"
Chen Lie asked, "You're from Dongzhe? What's your relationship with Yan Zhaoxian, the governor of Lanjing Province and a member of the Lanxing Global Political Council?"
Yan Zheng was taken aback and asked, "That's my uncle. Your friend actually knows my uncle?"
Chen Lie sneered. How could he not recognize the enemy who had caused his family's destruction in his past life?
"To be related to the Governor of Lanjing Province and want to exchange my martial arts secrets for this paltry sum, could it be that the Governor of Lanjing Province has some poor relative somewhere?"
Yan Zheng's expression immediately changed: "What did you say?"
"I say, you think you can exchange this piece of trash for my martial arts secrets? Are you a piece of trash yourself?" Chen Lie looked at Yan Zheng coldly.
Luo Zhixun and Tang Jiu'er behind him were instantly stunned.
What's wrong with Chen Lie?
He usually seems like a very amiable person, so why did he suddenly lose his temper today?
Moreover, is it really a good idea to criticize the martial arts champion of one of the top ten provinces on Earth like this? Isn't that just too offensive?
Most importantly, what good would it do to offend a top martial arts genius on Earth?
Could it be just because of a momentary irritation?
"You're asking for it!"
Yan Zheng flew into a rage, his blood surging for dozens of meters in an instant, and threw a punch at Chen Lie.
"boom!"
Before the force of the punch landed, Chen Lie anticipated his opponent's move and dodged it early.
But the aftershock of that punch sent Luo Zhixun and Tang Jiu'er back dozens of steps.
Yan Zheng never expected that someone from a poor province would dodge his punch. He appeared in front of Chen Lie as if he had teleported, and attacked again.
At this moment, a burst of powerful energy suddenly erupted in the distance, intimidating the entire area.
"Stop it, all of you!"
A voice came from behind, and the three-star general Zhuonuo, who had just presented the medal, walked over.
Upon seeing Zhuonuo appear, Yan Zheng instantly abandoned his intention to attack.
Zhuonuo walked between Chen Lie and Yan Zheng and scolded them, "You two are too lawless, actually fighting in the army."
Don't think that just because the Blue Star government values geniuses, you can be so arrogant and disregard military rules.
"General, what was that just now—"
Yan Zheng was about to explain when Zhuo Nuo interrupted him.
"Don't bother explaining these things to me, it's useless. All I saw just now was that you were the one who started the fight in the military."
Zhuonuo waved his hand and said, "Whatever grudges you have, you can settle them after military training. But if you don't follow the rules during military training, I will contact your respective provincial martial arts associations on behalf of the military to send someone to handle it. Do you understand?"
Yan Zheng said, "I understand."
"Then let's call it a day!"
Zhuonuo nodded to Chen Lie, then turned and left.
Yan Zheng gave Chen Lie a cold look and left the camp without saying a word.
Luo Zhixun and Tang Jiu'er then came to Chen Lie's side.
"Chen Lie, what happened to you just now? Even if you don't want to exchange your martial arts secrets, there's no need to offend a martial arts genius from one of the top ten provinces of Blue Star, is there?" Luo Zhixun couldn't help but ask.
Tang Jiu'er also felt strange.
Chen Lie waved his hand: "I know what I'm doing, so you don't need to ask."
"Oh well."
Luo Zhixun could only nod when she heard Chen Lie's reply.
After the conferment ceremony, Chen Lie, Luo Zhixun, and Tang Jiu'er went to the agreed-upon training ground.
At this moment, specially recruited students are continuously boarding starships and leaving the training ground.
As soon as Chen Lie arrived at the training ground, he saw the special admission students from Dongchuan and Yunchuan waiting for them at the edge of the training ground.
Upon seeing Chen Lie, Wang Dongting, Ji Lingxuan, and several other people at the peak of Qi and Blood came up.
"Captain Chen, you're back?"
Chen Lie nodded and asked, "Have the special recruitment documents been stamped?"
Wang Dongting nodded and said, "They've all been stamped."
Ji Lingxuan smiled and said, "Thanks to Chen Lie's connections, when I left the military training office just now, I saw many special admission students from the top ten provinces of Blue Star still queuing up to get their stamps."
"You're welcome. By the way, should we be able to arrange for a starship to take us away today?" Chen Lie asked.
Wang Dongting said, "To apply to leave on a starship, the military training group leader must bring the stamped special recruitment letter to apply. You weren't here just now, so we've been waiting for you."
Chen Lie said "Oh": "Okay, give me the special admission letter, I'll apply."
"good!"
Wang Dongting nodded and had Liu Wanwan hand over the entire stack of special recruitment documents to Chen Lie.
She carefully separated Chen Lie's special recruitment certificate and handed it to him: "Captain, this is your special recruitment certificate."
Chen Lie took the special recruitment letter, opened it, and suddenly saw a bright red seal in the middle with the words "Frontline Army Training Department" written on it.
"Then I'll apply to ride the Starship."
As Chen Lie spoke, he glanced at Ji Lingxuan and said, "Your Yunchuan should have already applied, right?"
"No, I'm waiting for you to come with me."
Ji Lingxuan shook her head.
"Let's do it together!"
With that, Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan arrived at the Starship Application Office in the training ground.
When faced with the staff, Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan both showed their identification documents.
After a while, the staff finished checking and returned the special recruitment letter to Chen Lie and Ji Lingxuan.
"That's fine. There are only two Starships on the Northwest Front, and now there are four provinces ahead of you in line."
The Starship can transport special students from two provinces every hour. You should be able to board the Starship and return to your respective provinces in about two more hours.
Chen Lie nodded, put away the special recruitment letter, and returned to the training ground.
"In two more hours, we can take the Starship back."
Upon arriving at the Dongchuan Province Special Enrollment Center, Chen Lie greeted everyone.
At this moment, Shen Miaowei walked over from the Yunchuan special admissions team.
He approached Chen Lie, greeted him, and then asked, "Mr. Chen Lie, have you really won the Northwest General Star?"
"Yes!" Chen Lie nodded.
A hint of admiration flashed in Shen Miaowei's eyes. She knew that Chen Lie was the ninth apprentice Divine Sense Master on Blue Star. Wasn't it only natural that he would seize the Northwest General Star?
Most of the martial arts geniuses in the top ten provinces of Blue Star are far inferior to him.
Chen Lie had been waiting for about an hour when he suddenly heard birdsong from the sky.
The birdsong grew closer and closer, ringing in my ears, like the cry of a phoenix.
He couldn't help but look ahead in the direction of the sound.
In the distance, two crimson birds could be seen flying towards the training ground.
Behind the two vermilion birds, there was a chariot-like structure resembling the one used by ancient emperors.
"Huh? What's that? Two phoenixes?"
"What phoenix? That's a spirit beast from outer space, a creature we don't have on our Blue Star."
"It looks like a spirit beast chariot. I've seen this mentioned in the Blue Star Times when it was reported on extraterrestrial events."
"So this is the spirit beast carriage support. I've finally seen the real thing."

The specially admitted students in the training ground were all talking about it.
The two crimson birds pulling the cart instantly arrived above the training ground.
As the distance closed, people finally saw clearly that atop the spirit beast carriage was a peerless beauty dressed in ancient attire, with her hair tied up in a crown and her hair styled in a high bun.
Beside the peerless beauty, on the other side of the spirit beast carriage, stood a handsome young man.
Two vermilion birds pulled the cart and circled once above the training ground before slowly landing in a deserted area.
At that moment, several people rushed into the training ground.
"Special admission students inside the training ground, please disperse and make way for each other."
"Our candidate for governor of Blue Star, accompanying distinguished guests from Crimson Flame Star, has returned from an exploration of Kunlun Ruins and needs to temporarily requisition a starship to return to Blue Capital."
All specially admitted students, please disperse so as not to disturb the distinguished guests from beyond the stars.
The group entered the training ground and began to disperse the specially recruited students from various provinces who were lined up in a queue. Dongchuan and Yunchuan were also among those being dispersed.
As they were being driven away, someone asked in confusion, "A candidate for governor? Which candidate for governor?"
"I don't know them. All I know is that the top martial arts geniuses on Earth are qualified to be candidates for governor, but I don't even know their names."
"It's normal not to know. For the safety of the candidates for the governor of Blue Star, the official will not release detailed information about the candidates, not even their appearance. Only a small group of people know."
After being driven away, Chen Lie turned to Shen Miaowei beside him and asked, "Do you know the candidates for the position of Governor of Blue Star?"
How could someone so young be elected?
Shen Miaowei explained, "The governors are not elected. Instead, the top ten martial arts geniuses on the Blue Star Qi and Blood Stage Martial Artist Ranking can obtain the status of governor candidates after passing a series of tests."
