Xia Yuanxing nodded and glanced at Xu Ning again.
He took out a cyan metal plate from the wooden box and handed it to Xu Ning.
'Cyan one...'
Xu Ning took it and thanked Xia Yuanxing.
Although it was not the highest rank, it wasn't bad.
After Xu Ning took the metal plate, he walked to the side and waited with the people who had already received their plates
When Tao Jin saw Xu Ning receiving a cyan plate, a faint smile appeared on her face.
She knew that the yellow plate in her hand was the highest assessment level.
"What's wrong, Tao Jin? What are you smiling at?"
.
Tao Qingyuan was standing aside and caught this imperceptible smile.
"Nothing, just that I passed the assessment, and I feel happy."
Tao Jin answered calmly.
After Tao Qingyuan heard the answer, he frowned and stopped talking.
'What a pity...'
Xia Yuanxing thought as he watched Xu Ning walk away.
In fact, Xia Yuanxing wanted to give Xu Ning a yellow plate.
However, there were only two yellow plates for the selection of Black Armored Guards from the Tao Village.
As a martial arts master of the mortal realm third stage, his observation ability was astute. Xia Yuanxing had a good idea of everyone's performance in the test just now.
In Xia Yuanxing's opinion, the last test was the most important, and it was also where Xu Ning performed the best.
But as for the two yellow plates, one was given to Tao Qingyuan, while the other was given to Tao Jin.
Tao Qingyuan was talented in all aspects. Although Tao Jin was not as good as him, she was Tao Jingxing's granddaughter. In contrast, Xu Ning appeared to be inferior in all aspects.
Soon, Xia Yuanxing distributed the 20 metal plates.
"Everyone."
Xia Yuanxing stood up, and the 20 teenagers who had passed the assessment stepped back.
"From now on, you are Black Armored Guards." Xia Yuanxing glanced at everyone, "After ten days, someone will come to escort you to Kangyun County."
'Ten days later?'
Everyone was surprised.
Chinese New Year was in less than a month.
If they were going to Kangyun County in ten days, they obviously couldn't spend the new year at home.
Everyone thought that they would report to their new jobs next year, but now it seemed like they were too optimistic.
"Rest and recover during these 10 days, and I hope you all will be energetic when reporting to your new job."
Xia Yuanxing paused and said, "By the way, after the assessment is over, wash your eyes with clean water when you go home, otherwise the eyes will swell in the next two days."
"Okay, Clan Head Tao, the assessment is complete. We should return now."
Xia Yuanxing gave Tao Jingxing a fist bump.
Tao Jingxing also knew that the Black Armored Guards were busy, so he didn't try to convince them to stay."I'll send you off."
"Please."
The people on the superior-class began to gradually disperse, while the clan elders accompanied Xia Yuanxing and others outside the village.
Xu Ning took the cyan plate in his hand and was about to find Tao Yunchuan.
Tao Qingping suddenly came up to him.
"Xu Ning, it seems that we will have the opportunity to work together in the future."
Tao Qingping looked very excited.
Although he only got a gray plate, he was obviously satisfied.
"Hope we can take care of each other."
Xu Ning also smiled.
He was in a good mood.
After entering the Black Armored Guards, with a stable supply of resources, he wouldn't have to enter the mountains every day like before.
Moreover, he would also be exposed to the broader world of martial arts.
When Xu Ning arrived outside the school field, he found Tao Yunchuan and Guo Ye standing together.
"Guo Ye."
Xu Ning walked over.
"How was it?"
Guo Ye came up first, eager to know the result.
He met the age requirements, but he knew that his talent was not good enough, so he didn't participate in the assessment at all.
"I did it."
Xu Ning took out the cyan plate in his hand.
"Good, good..."
Tao Yunchuan felt relieved.
As he was waiting outside the school field just now, Tao Yunchuan had been quite nervous.
After all, this would majorly impact Xu Ning's future.
Tao Yunchuan could finally relax. 𝒇𝘳eℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝓃oѵ𝑒𝑙 - 🅽🅽novel
Guo Ye also couldn't help himself."From now on I will have a brother in the Black Armored Guards!"
"Come, let's go home and tell your sister the good news!"
Tao Yunchuan dragged Xu Ning's legs and feet, and quickly went home.
It was not just Xu Ning's family, all of the family members of those who passed the assessment were excited.
The new year had not yet arrived, but some people were already beaming with celebration.
...
Time flew by quickly.
Ten days passed in a blink of an eye.
Outside the Tao Village.
Five horse carriages parked at the entrance.
Two Black Armored Guards were escorting the carriage.
"Everyone, starting today, you will become a member of the Black Armored Guards."
At the gate of the village, the group had not yet boarded the carriage yet. Tao Jingxing, the Clan Head of the Tao Clan, brought the elders and personally sent off the descendants who were about to enter the city.
Xu Ning were among the ones about to set off.
Tao Jingxing spoke some words of encouragement in front of the crowd, but Xu Ning had no intention of listening.
Xu Ning, who had just bid farewell to his family, felt a little depressed.
Although he had escorted a carriage into the city before, this time, there was a high chance that he would not be able to go home for a long time.
Xu Ning felt a little down when thinking about Tao Tao.
"Everyone, after entering the Black Armored Guards, you must remember your original identity. You are all members of the Tao Village."
Tao Jingxing said, "When encountering any difficulties, we must support each other, and it is strictly forbidden to oppress each other."
"Qingyuan."
Tao Jingxing called out Tao Qingyuan's name.
"Clan Head."
Tao Qingyuan stood up.
Tao Jingxing said, "Qingyuan, you have the strongest strength and the highest qualifications here. After you enter the Black Armored Guards, you must help others and take responsibility."
"Understood."
Tao Qingyuan replied.
Tao Jingxing nodded and looked at everyone."If you encounter trouble you can't handle, ask Qingyuan for help and ideas. Do not separate from the Tao Village group."
"Yes, Clan Head."
Everyone answered.
'The Tao Village will have an influence on the Black Armored Guards...'
Xu Ning secretly thought.
Tao Jingxing's remarks just now established Tao Qingyuan's central position among the group.
After Tao Jingxing gave a few more words of encouragement, everyone got into the carriage.
The horse carriage galloped away.
...
After a short journey.
In less than half a day's time, everyone had arrived in Kangyun County.
After entering the city, Xu Ning and his party were taken directly to the camp in Kangyun County where the Black Armored Guards were located.
"You will rest here for two days. After all of the 100 newcomers arrive, Master Wei will see you all in person."
The Black Armored Guards in charge of escorting the carriage had arranged rooms for everyone.
Xu Ning and Tao Qingping happened to be in the same room.
Xu Ning and Tao Qingping made their beds in their room.
"Go, Xu Ning, let's go and have dinner!"
Although they rode in the horse carriage, Tao Qingping's stomach was rumbling because he had nothing to eat.
"I'm not going, my sister brought me food."
Xu Ning refused.
Before coming, Xu Lian had baked a pie for Xu Ning and asked him to bring it.
Xu Ning won't be able to taste home cooking over the next few months.
"Then I will go."
Tao Qingping cleaned up his stuff and went out.
Xu Ning was in the room alone and ate the pies that Xu Lian had made.
After eating and drinking to replenish hunger and thirst, Xu Ning decided to go out and get familiar with the environment here.
When they entered the camp just now, the Black Armored Guards who were guarding it told them that the camp was newly opened, and that the facilities inside were brand new.
This would be the residence of the hundred newcomers.
Xu Ning opened the door and saw Tao Qingping rushing back in a hurry.
"Why are you in such a hurry?"
Xu Ning asked.
"Halfway through the meal, the people of the Tan Village and the Tao Village started to go against each other!"
Tao Qingping said in an anxious tone, "I'm here to call for help!"
"To fight?"
Xu Ning was taken aback and asked.
"Yes!"
Tao Qingping said, "You go to the dining hall. I'll go find others for help!"
Tao Qingping went to knock on other people's doors again.
'Where there are tribes, there is tribalism...'
Xu Ning never thought he would encounter such a thing already.
However, as a member of the Tao Village, he couldn't abandon his group.
Without hesitation, Xu Ning rushed to the direction of the dining hall.
