Early the next morning, after Zhou Tian had breakfast at home, he left Mei Xuehua and Zhou Qihua, took Xia Lan and Shanya, and boarded the special car specially sent by the National Security Bureau to pick them up.
When Zhou Tiangang was about to get into the car, Zhou Qihua stopped him. He looked around and lowered his voice and said: "Tian'er, be careful outside. Don't act on impulse, and don't rush to the front of any danger. Learn to protect yourself.
do you know?"
Zhou Tian was startled. Zhou Qihua's words had a profound meaning. But when he saw a few people from the National Security Bureau on the side, he endured it and did not ask why. He smiled slightly and said: "Dad, I understand." Then he got in.
Go in the car.
The car slowly drove out of the compound. On the road, Xia Lan saw that Zhou Tian was unhappy and was about to speak. She saw Zhou Tian wink secretly to her. She was stunned for a moment and looked at the driver in the car. She seemed to understand what was going on.
What's going on? He let out a haha and closed his eyes without saying a word.
The car soon drove into an area where all cultivating forces gathered. Fu Yi, the third deputy director of the National Security Bureau, was already waiting at the gate. When he saw Zhou Tian and others' car, he stepped forward and opened the door for Zhou Tian with his own hands, haha
He smiled and said, "But I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Zhou Tian was a little flattered and said hurriedly: "Director Fu, how dare you do your best to open the door for me?"
Fu Yi said: "This is what it should be. By the way, there is an appointment I forgot to tell you. After high-level discussions between the National Security Bureau and the Military Commission, it was unanimously decided to award Comrade Zhou Tian the rank of major general." He stood at attention and gave a standard military salute.
.
Zhou Tian froze there and murmured: "Director Fu, what's going on? I've already left the National Security Bureau, how can I be awarded the rank of major general?"
Fu Yi said: "Now is an extraordinary period. Promoting and reemploying people in an exceptional way is to meet the needs of the development of the current situation. What's more, your military quality and commanding ability have been recognized by the military leaders. At the same time, you have also made great contributions to the country.
You have made a lot of contributions. Last time, you just left the National Security Bureau, but your military rank was still retained."
Zhou Tian finally understood what was going on at this time. He was just using this military rank without actual duties to hold him back. He was awarded the rank of major general, but without actual duties. It is estimated that there are no notes in various military branches. To put it bluntly,
It's just an empty major general rank.
Zhou Tian sighed, and suddenly thought of why Zhou Qihua told him to be careful and not to be used as a weapon. Maybe this was a strategy in the struggle. There was dissatisfaction in his heart, but he didn't show it. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Fu, for your cultivation."
, I will do my best."
Fu Yi smiled, stepped aside, and walked with Zhou Tian to a training ground. This training ground was the headquarters of the National Security Bureau and was specially built here. It was used for the daily training of new recruits of the National Security Bureau.
Secondly, any major competitions and assessments will be placed here.
When Zhou Tian and others walked into the hall of the training ground, there were already many people standing inside. These people were all carefully selected disciples from various aristocratic families and sects, and could also be regarded as the elites of the major cultivation forces.
Zhou Tian looked at those people, their faces were all solemn, and their eyes were shining with a compelling light. Among these people, the ones with the lowest cultivation level have reached the middle stage of Grandmaster, and two or three have even reached the early stage of Martial Saint.
realm.
In today's world of cultivation, with so many masters, it can be said that the elites of all factions have gathered together. If twenty people are selected among them, they will be the most powerful combination in the entire Huaxia Kingdom.
Zhou Tian did not expect that the major cultivation sects would send so many elites. He was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the eyes of those elite disciples looking at him with disdainful expressions, knowing that he was inexperienced.
Still unconvincing. He smiled a few times, glanced at Fuyi, and remained silent.
Fuyi coughed and shouted loudly: "Everyone, be quiet. I have called everyone here today because the National Security Bureau's annual assessment is coming. In order to ensure that this assessment can be carried out smoothly, and at the same time to protect the safety of the contestants, after
We held a meeting and unanimously decided to set up a patrol team of twenty people to be responsible for maintaining all safety during the assessment period."
Pointing at Zhou Tian, he said: "This, named Zhou Tian, is the third-generation direct descendant of the Zhou family who relies most on him. He has the rank of major general and is the captain of your patrol."
"I don't agree." A cold voice interrupted Fu Yi, and a middle-aged man in his forties slowly walked out of the crowd and snorted, "How dare this kid come here?"
He who leads me does not weigh his own weight."
Fu Yi said displeasedly: "Nangongtian, don't mess around. This is our unanimous decision. Who do you have to doubt your captain's ability?"
Nangong Tian snorted: "I just doubt the ability of this young boy. Why should he lead us? What is better than us? This world is about strength, not background. What's more, the background of my Nangong family
, no worse than those of their Zhou family."
Zhou Tian smiled faintly and asked: "Oh, then who do you think is qualified to hold the position of captain?"
"Me." Nangong Tian said unceremoniously, "I, Nangong Tian, am an early martial sage in terms of strength. There are not many people here who are higher than me. In terms of family background, I am the second generation direct descendant of the Nangong family.
, the background is bigger than you. Boy, I advise you to get out of here, otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude."
Zhou Tian slowly walked down from the podium, walked slowly to Nangong Tian, and asked with a smile: "Why do you want to be rude to me?"
Nangong Tian sneered: "I will beat you like a pig's head, then throw you out from here, and let you crawl back to your family."
Zhou Tian said disapprovingly: "Okay, then I can also tell you that I will not choose you to join my patrol team. I will give you one minute, you get out of here right away. Otherwise, you just
Whatever you say to me, I will reflect it in you."
"How dare you." Nangong Tian said angrily, "Who do you think you are? Our Nangong family has a greater background than you. If you dare to humiliate me, you can't even think of walking out of here today."
Zhou Tian sneered. It seems that if you don't establish your authority today, it will be difficult to convince the crowd. He looked at Nangong Tian and said coldly: "You still have thirty seconds."
"Fuck you for thirty seconds." Nangong Tian roared angrily and punched straight out with a "huh".
"Pa" Zhou Tian stretched out his hand, caught Nangong Tian's fist, and said coldly: "There are still twenty seconds."
Nangong Tian said angrily: "Let's see what happens with my kick." He swept his kick out, trying to sweep Zhou Tian out.
"Whoosh" Zhou Tian's body disappeared suddenly, and he was behind Nan Gongtian in an instant. He grabbed Nangongtian's fist with his right hand and said coldly: "There are still ten seconds. It seems that you are still stubborn, then
Don't blame me for being rude."
"Ancestor." Nangong Tian was just about to turn around and punch him again. Suddenly his eyes blurred, and Zhou Tianren was in front of him in an instant. Before he could react, his face was in burning pain, and he was hit hard by Zhou Tian.
A slap in the face.
Zhou Tian said solemnly: "This slap is to teach you a lesson. Keep your mouth clean from now on."
Nangong Tianren was stunned for a moment. Then he realized what he was doing and was completely angered. He shouted: "You dare to hit me. No one has ever dared to do this to me. I will kill you."
Zhou Tian sneered and said: "You don't have this chance." Sword energy burst out all over his body, and the sword energy shot out with a "swish". The entire hall was enveloped by Zhou Tian's sword energy. The sharp and deep sword energy stared at him coldly.
Anyone on site.
"Don't hurt his life." Fu Yi was afraid that Zhou Tian would do something extreme when he was young and energetic. After all, Nangong Tian was also an elite member of the second generation direct descendants of the Nangong family. If he died in Zhou Tian's hands, the Nangong family would
He had to fight with the Zhou family.
The final outcome is likely to be a lose-lose situation, which will seriously weaken the power of modern cultivation. This is not the result he wants to see.
Zhou Tian shouted angrily: "Get lost." He slapped Nangong Tian out with a palm. He fell to the ground and rolled out of the door.
Fu Yi breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Zhou Tian did not kill him in pain. There are a lot of files on Zhou Tian in the National Security Bureau's intelligence about Zhou Tian's strength. With his current strength, even if he faced a strong man at the level of a god of war,
He also has the ability to fight. Against Nangong Tian, he can kill him instantly.
After Zhou Tian threw Nangong Tian out of the door, he slowly glanced at everyone and said lightly: "Whoever is still not convinced can stand up." His tone revealed supreme majesty, and a monstrous force rose into the sky, and then
Even Fuyi was surprised that Zhou Tian had such a strong momentum.
After waiting for a while, Zhou Tian saw that no one had any objections, and said coldly: "I know what everyone thinks. They think that I am young, have no strength, and am not qualified to be everyone's captain. But I want to tell you, except for me, Zhou Tian, none of you
People have this qualification. I am young, but the life and death I have faced are things you can't even imagine. The powerful enemies I have faced are things you have never encountered in your life. However, those so-called strong men
, still died in the hands of me, Zhou Tian. Why do you doubt my strength? And why do you compete with me, Zhou Tian, for the position of captain?"
Fuyi didn't want to make the atmosphere too tense. He walked up to Zhou Tian with a smile and said, "Don't have any doubts in your mind. Zhou Tian's strength is recognized by many powerful people in the cultivation world, including the three gods of China.
I am full of praise for him. So, he is fully qualified."
Zhou Tianlan wasted no time and shouted coldly: "Xia Lan."
"Here." Xia Lan trotted up to Zhou Tian, stood at attention, and said, "Captain, what are your instructions?"
Zhou Tian Leng said: "Among these people, find eighteen people with the highest cultivation level. In addition, find two people with supernatural powers."
Xia Lan's perceptive ability is particularly strong, so it is most suitable for her to be the handsome man.
Xia Lan said: "Okay." The zhenqi circulated slowly throughout his body, opening his senses in all directions to explore the candidates Zhou Tian needed.
