Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

"Hehe... hehe..."

Zhao Dabiao's mouth twitched slightly as he held the bag of Elemental Crystals with both hands, chuckling, "Young... Young Master, you're joking, I can't accept this!"

He wasn't an idiot; he knew who he could mess with and who he couldn't.

The consequence of greed is a dead end!

"Oh? Isn't this the rule in the barracks?"

Ling Feng grinned. These old hands were all thinking about squeezing some profit from the students just out of the academy. But Ling Feng was no ordinary person; his "profit" wasn't so easy to snatch.

I have profit, but the question is, do you dare to try snatching it?

"Pfft..."

Behind him, Lin Xian'er and Mu Qianxue couldn't hold back and laughed out loud, even the cold person Tuoba Yan couldn't help but have a slight curve at the corners of his mouth.

"Ahem..." Zhao Dabiao's face flushed red, "What rules? I, Zhao Dabiao, have always opposed such unfriendly actions towards new soldiers. Once I find out which bastard set these rules, I'll whip him a hundred times!"

As he said this, Zhao Dabiao shamelessly approached Ling Feng and laughed, "How should I address you, Young Master?"

"Ling Feng." Ling Feng raised his eyebrows, replying coolly.

"So it's Young Master Ling."

Zhao Dabiao smiled, "Please follow me, I'll take you to find Vice General Ding. Generally, new recruits from the academy are arranged by the General."

"Thank you, Commander."

Ling Feng glanced at Zhao Dabiao, smiling faintly.

"Hehe..."

Zhao Dabiao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Not at all, please follow me."

Ling Feng and his group exchanged a glance and then followed Zhao Dabiao to find Vice General Ding.

After the group left, the soldiers in the patrol team finally swallowed and their eyes widened.

"Wow, Elemental Crystals! That huge bag, tsk tsk, even if we were soldiers for a lifetime, we wouldn't earn that bag of Elemental Crystals!"

"That's the world of the rich!"

"But, who would've thought that 'Zhao Skinner' would fail in front of this guy, and there's money he doesn't dare to accept, hahaha..."

A soldier couldn't help but laugh heartily. 'Zhao Skinner' naturally referred to Zhao Dabiao, who was usually loyal to his brothers but had one flaw: greed!

"Speaking of which, the rule of gouging profits from new recruits was set by Zhao Skinner himself, haha, I really want to see how he whips himself a hundred times!"

"Hahaha..."

The soldiers burst into laughter, feeling extremely satisfied seeing "Zhao Skinner" humbled!

...

Not long after, Ling Feng and his party were led into Tianmang Fortress by Zhao Dabiao. Due to the standoff with the Demon Clan army ahead, the atmosphere in the barracks felt quite tense.

"Vice General Ding's camp is just ahead."

Zhao Dabiao was full of smiles, but dared not say a single unnecessary word along the way. He had finally met his match.

"Hmm, thank you."

Ling Feng touched his nose, nodding slightly to him.

He didn't dislike greedy people; Zhao Dabiao was indeed a smart person.

Smart people often hold value.

Ling Feng casually tossed a small bag of Elemental Crystals to Zhao Dabiao, speaking lightly, "Commander Zhao, you can accept this."

"Thank you, Young Master Ling!"

Zhao Dabiao licked his dry lips, carefully examined Ling Feng before daring to accept the Elemental Crystals, grinning, "Young Master Ling, I, Zhao Dabiao, owe you a favor!"

Ling Feng shrugged. Such a person might come in handy someday; even if not, spending a bag of Elemental Crystals was of no concern to him.

Continuing onward for a few hundred meters, Zhao Dabiao stopped outside a large tent, bowing to shout inside the tent, "Subordinate Patrol Camp Deputy Commander Zhao Dabiao requests an audience with Vice General Ding!"

"Come in."

A lazy voice came from inside the tent, and only then did Zhao Dabiao nod, lifting the curtain as Ling Feng and his companions entered the tent, and he followed last.

Inside the tent were numerous bookshelves, all filled with bamboo scrolls, containing the roster of the Southern Army's officers.

There was an old man in casual clothes holding a back scratcher, occasionally tapping the shelves and sometimes picking up a bamboo scroll to blow off the dust, appearing quite leisurely.

"Ah, it's Deputy Commander Zhao."

The old man glanced at Zhao Dabiao out of the corner of his eye, asking indifferently, "Which academy's playboys are reporting today?"

"Reporting, sir, it's Young Master Ling from Heavenly Position Academy and his classmates."

"Young Master Ling?"

The old man turned to look at Ling Feng. Normally, Zhao Dabiao wouldn't be so courteous, indicating these people are not of average status.

"Hmm!"

The old man put away his back scratcher and quickly approached Ling Feng, sizing them up.

"General!"

Ling Feng clasped his hands in salute to the old man, and Lee Bufan and others followed suit.

"Hmm." Vice General Ding nodded slightly, then sat behind a desk, saying softly, "Hand me the recommendation letter first."

"Yes."

Zhao Dabiao respectfully presented the recommendation letter, its envelope still intact; something like this wasn't for a mere commander to open.

Vice General Ding tore open the envelope, took out the letter, and glanced at it, suddenly his expression changed dramatically.

He repeatedly looked Ling Feng up and down before suddenly kneeling in front of Ling Feng, respectfully saying, "Subordinate Ding Ruhai, salutes General Ling!"

"Gen... General?"

Zhao Dabiao was completely stunned; how could a newbie soldier be a general right off the bat?

However, Zhao Dabiao reacted quickly and immediately knelt as well. This guy wasn't just iron in disguise but steel! Diamond!

Fortunately, it seemed that General Ling had no intention of dealing with him; otherwise, ten heads wouldn't be enough to chop off.

Ling Feng touched his nose; it seemed Tong Chengtai's recommendation letter mentioned his identity as General Wei Yuan.

Indeed, although he had no real power, he was at least a general, able to mix into any military district.

"Rise."

Ling Feng waved his hand, indicating for them to rise.

Vice General Ding slowly stood up, looking at Ling Feng, slowly saying, "General Ling, with your rank, I'm afraid it's not easy to arrange here, only the Grand Commander can personally appoint you."

Ling Feng raised his eyebrows, saying coolly, "Then take me to the Grand Commander."
