Chapter 3940: Impersonating a Mercenary

This contract posting requires the mercenary team to have at least ten members, all above the Cave Heaven Realm.

Among them, at least one must be at the Hédào Èrchóng level, and one at the Hédào Yīchóng level.

Moreover, the mission departs in ten days, giving them ample time.

Ye Liuyun immediately signed up, agreeing to bring his men for a strength test the next day.

That evening, after returning, Ye Liuyun began selecting people.

Lei Ming was the first to sign up; Ye Tiandao and Tang Xinyao also wanted to join to practice, and Ye Liuyun thought that a team composed entirely of Monster Beasts would be inconvenient for dealing with others, so he agreed.

In the end, the ten he chose were Lei Ming, Long Nv, Nine‑Head Demon Dragon, Clone Puppet, Zhu Que, Xuan Wu, Demon Lion, Ye Tiandao, Tang Xinyao, and himself.

Because his, Ye Tiandao's, and Tang Xinyao's realms were relatively low, he selected five people of the Cultivation realm; even though the Clone Puppet disguised itself as a Martial Cultivator of Hédào Yīchóng, it still far exceeded the contract's requirements.

And Demon Lion and Xuan Wu are also at the seventh/eighth levels of the Cave Heaven Realm, so they should not be considered weak.

Bai Hu and Shi Yuan are also suitable, but Ye Liuyun worries that their ferocity is too great, that in ordinary combat they would lose control and reveal their true forms, so he did not let them go.

The whole team is six men and four women, a decent ratio, and should have no problem passing the Chengzhu Fu test.

Before departing the next day, they all changed into mercenary attire and rushed together to Chengzhu Fu.

When they arrived at Chengzhu Fu, more than ten mercenary teams were already waiting.

As soon as Ye Liuyun's group arrived, the recruiting Administrator immediately greeted them and said hello; the others also turned to look at them.

Their strength was striking: five strongmen of the Cultivation realm, and Long Nv's level is Hédào Sānchóng, the highest in the venue.

But some noticed that Ye Liuyun, Ye Tiandao, and Tang Xinyao were only at the first and second levels of the Cave Heaven Realm.

"Huh, a bunch of people thrown together at the last minute!" someone immediately scoffed.

No wonder they doubted; in their team the high realms are high and the low are low, looking like a hastily patched group.

But the Administrator didn't mind; with five Cultivation‑realm strongmen, even if the remaining members fell short, the strength was sufficient.

"May I ask who the team leader is?" he politely asked Ye Liuyun's group.

Go.

"I am!" Ye Liuyun responded proactively.

But the whole scene fell silent instantly.

No one could have imagined that a Martial Cultivator of the Second Stage of Dong Tian could lead a group of Cultivation‑realm strongmen; for a moment everyone was shocked.

"You see, I told you, they're just a hastily patched group," the burly man who had mocked them continued to say loudly.

Ye Liuyun also glanced toward him; that team's strength was relatively close. Their highest level was a woman of Hédào Èrchóng, standing at the front, presumably their team leader.

Most members were at the Dòngtiān Bājiǔchóng level, none too low. That burly man was at the eighth level of the Cave Heaven Realm.

"Barbarian Ox, stop talking!"

The female team leader suddenly spoke, restraining the burly man from causing trouble.

From the moment Ye Liuyun's group entered, she knew Chengzhu Fu would definitely hire them. After all, five Cultivation‑realm strongmen, even if hastily assembled, have that strength.

Anyway, Chengzhu Fu isn't recruiting only one team. If they are selected, they'll have to cooperate later, so there's no need to offend them.

So she clasped her fists toward Ye Liuyun in a friendly gesture.

Ye Liuyun finally nodded, withdrawing his gaze. Otherwise, with that man provoking them twice, he would look for a chance to teach him a lesson.

The Administrator also caught on and immediately registered them.

"Wolf Hunt Mercenary Corps, Ye Liuyun!" Ye Liuyun also announced his mercenary corps name.

After completing the registration, the Administrator asked them to wait; once everyone arrived, the test would begin.

"Little brother, we're sure to win!"

Lei Ming scanned all the mercenary teams here, found no one stronger than her, and instantly became confident.

"Hmm, let's see what the test is like. In terms of strength, we're definitely the strongest here."

Ye Liuyun also nodded in agreement, then began chatting casually with them.

The others also observed them, including the Administrator, noticing that their relationships were very close, not like a hastily formed team.

Moreover, these people clearly centered around Ye Liuyun. If there were a vice captain, it could only be the Clone Puppet; although Long Nv's realm is high, she says little, merely clinging to Ye Liuyun's side, pulled by Lei Ming.

"Look, they seem quite familiar

…!" the Barbarian Ox man kept staring at Ye Liuyun's group.

"Barbarian Ox, don't speak recklessly in the future, lest you incur resentment and cause trouble for the team!" the female captain reminded him.

"Oh!" the Barbarian Ox replied, not daring to argue.

Ye Liuyun's group waited a while, and more than ten teams arrived. It must be said, the mercenary teams here are truly strong; Ye Liuyun had never before encountered such powerful mercenary teams.

The Administrator also announced that everyone was present, then introduced the destination of this recruitment, the expected voyage time, possible dangers, and rewards.

This time they were recruiting three mercenary corps. But most people already believed Ye Liuyun's team would be chosen.

The remaining twenty‑plus teams were fighting for only two slots, the pressure was a bit high. At this moment everyone was somewhat nervous.

"Now, please have the strongest representative of the mercenary corps step forward and demonstrate their strength!" the Administrator began the test.

The strongest combat power is undoubtedly the most important; sometimes a single top force can wipe out another team.

Long Nv is such a case; when she steps out, she even brandishes a Coiled Dragon Staff, and no one dares to challenge her.

The female captain earlier did not challenge Long Nv, but began to challenge others.

Ye Liuyun found her strength not weak either; she should be among the top in other mercenary teams. Moreover, her combat experience is rich, clearly a veteran.

The Administrator was no ordinary person; upon seeing these people act, he already had a sense of the situation.

Long Nv, though she did not strike, exuded an aura that ordinary strength cannot mimic. He estimated that even at Hédào Sānchóng, Long Nv is definitely of middle‑high strength.

Relying on Long Nv alone, he thought hiring Ye Liuyun's mercenary corps would not be a loss.

Besides that woman's mercenary corps, there is another corps whose leader is at Hédào Èrchóng, a Sword Cultivator whose sword intent is also strong, and the Administrator favored him.

Thus the three teams were provisionally selected. If anyone objects, they can send challengers; defeat them and take their place.

And after the Administrator announced the names of these Mercenary groups, Ye Liuyun only then learned that the woman's Mercenary group was called Ghost, and that sword‑wielding man's group was called Bladeless.
