Chapter 21 - Scary
Because the Navy needed to be expanded urgently, the new recruits’ camp would hold an evaluation test every month, ever since it was founded. They tried to select as many talents as possible to join the Navy, and get them familiarized with the battleship and drilled them with military tactics. The locally recruited children from poor families were very hardworking. That was because they knew that they did not have much opportunities that could allow them to change their lives.
Ever since His Majesty announced that new recruits could attain the status as a military soldier if they got selected after the evaluation test, the new recruits became a lot more motivated. Disregarding everything else, just the fact that military families did not have to pay taxes alone was enough to fight hard for it.
However, the number of new recruits who got selected to join the combat military force every month was very little. This was because Zhuang Yong was very strict - h

The day of the new recruits’ evaluation was not exactly a special day - no matter how much one flipped through the almanac, he would not be able to find any good omen. Before daybreak, there were already people who had gotten out of bed and headed to the competition grounds to perform the three kneelings and nine kowtows. To the combat soldiers, these people looked like clowns - they could not understand their intense desire to change their family’s situation. Naturally, performing the three kneelings and nine kowtows was not efficacious. Whenever this day arrived, the breakfast for the new recruits would be very sumptuous. The majority of them would wolf down their food in the hopes that eating more would contribute to greater strength, in preparation for the competition. After Shen Leng was about seventy percent full, he put down his bowl and chopsticks. Being seventy percent full was more than enough for him. Early in the mo
Eternal Empire Chapter 23 - Not Too Shabby
Zhuang Yong did not know how he managed to get persuaded by that fella. Was it just because he said he wanted to buy good tea leaves for Mr. Shen?He thought about the life Shen Xiaosong used to live, as compared to his current situation, where he was hard pressed for money because he had to raise two children. He had to even deliver vegetables for the kitchen here…even though on the surface, they used Cha Yan wanting to see Shen Leng as an excuse, it was evident that they used that excuse to conceal the fact that they did not have much money left.Zhuang Yong gestured at him. “Continue with your evaluation. We will discuss this matter again at a later time.”Shen Leng finally released his hands that were grasping tight. He bowed and said, “Thank you, general.”Zhuang Yong thought to himself: So in your eyes, I’m still a general?He shook his head and did not utter a single word. Shen Leng did not say anything else eit
Eternal Empire Chapter 24 - Let’s Make A Wager
After the bow and arrow test was over, a soldier went over and told Zhuang Yong that he had a visitor. Due to the fact that Mr. Shen had visited twice in the past, the soldier recognized him and was aware that he was a good friend of the general, hence he quickly made his way over to report to him. Zhuang Yong went back to his study and realized that Mr. Shen had already brewed himself some tea. He did not stand on ceremony at all. “Did you come here to thank me for sending someone over to buy your vegetables?”After Zhuang Yong sat down, he hinted to Mr. Shen to pour a cup of tea for him. However, Mr. Shen acted as if he could not bear to part with it, making Zhuang Yong second guess if the tea was even his in the first place. “I guessed that it was you.”Mr. Shen sipped his tea and leaned against the chair comfortably. “Even though the person who bought the vegetables had changed into casual clothes, the moment h
Eternal Empire Chapter 25 - Go According To Plan
When Shen Leng returned to the barracks, the sky was starting to get dark. Shen Leng was not elated at all about the fact that he broke all the records of both segments, including more than ten items in total. In his eyes, it was not because he was that strong, but rather…the records were set at a standard that was too low. What made him happy however, was his black cord sword. Naturally, his scabbard was still his treasured object, but the black cord sword was his first official military weapon. It was probably going to accompany him on the battlefield for a long time. Yang Qibao ran over to congratulate him. He looked so excited to the point it seemed as though he was the one who broke the records instead. Shen Leng truly wanted to take Yang Qibao out for drinks and food but the discipline in the military was very strict. Without any special reasons, they were not allowed to leave the camp as they wished.Because of Shen Leng’s impressive
Eternal Empire Chapter 26 - I Need To Take Someone With Me
After Shen Leng got out of bed, he ran three rounds around the new recruits’ camp before he washed up and changed into the combat military uniform that he received yesterday. He did indeed look a lot more assertive than before. The new recruits’ uniform was rather ordinary when it came to workmanship and material used. Its color was not as robust as compared to the all-black combat military uniform. There were three uniforms in total for combat military - an all-black one, a dark blue one, and a black vest with a red cape, that was only worn during celebrations and large-scale exercises. Of course, it was a light cotton vest, and not a leather one. It looked nice, but it was not practical. In order to distinguish themselves from the other troops, there was a metal anchor design embroidered on the left side of the Navy uniform around the chest area. After he was about seventy percent full, Shen Leng rested for a while after eating. He followe
Eternal Empire Chapter 27 - Follow Me In The Future
“Did you think that you’ve saved Du Weiming?”Zhuang Yong paced within the tent slowly. “You know that Du Weiming got bribed, so I’m sure you also know that he must die, without a doubt. The person who bribed him will not allow him to live in order to get rid of any evidence that could be traced back to him. From the moment that he acceded to his request, the safety of both him and his parents has already been compromised.”Shen Leng laughed cunningly, “General, since you already know about this so well, Du Weiming’s parents will surely escape death.”Zhuang Yong scoffed. Indeed, he did not like Mu Xiaofeng’s way of doing things. He was a ruthless person who implicated the innocent; he might not have great prospects in the future. More importantly, Mu Xiaofeng had put the favorable conditions he was born into to waste. He was too narrow-minded.“I had sent someone to Huaiyuan city, and have arranged to relocate his parents. You can
Eternal Empire Chapter 28 - Just Go Then, Just Go
Mr. Shen said that a gentleman should be humble and modest most of the time. Shen Leng felt that he himself was a perfect person - for such humble words to come out of his mouth… The rest of the competition was nothing significant. In truth, even if the new recruits, who passed both segments, were to fight each other, there was nothing much to praise or admire. Compared to Shen Leng, they were way beneath him - not just a level beneath him; they were worlds apart. When the sky was about to be dark, Shen Leng walked into Zhuang Yong’s tent. He greeted the general with an exceptionally embarrassed smile. Zhuang Yong shook his head slightly. “Fake. Save it.”Hence, Shen Leng laughed, feeling pleased with himself.Zhuang Yong nodded his head. “Young man, allow yourself to be happy if you’re happy. Shen Leng replied, “It’s not good if you let yourself grow dizzy with success and get too carried away. After
Eternal Empire Chapter 29 - Changan City
There are several hundreds of countries in the world. Naturally, the most powerful one was Great Ning. Within the several hundreds of countries were several hundreds of cities. Naturally, the biggest one was Changan. They had to embark a ship first, before riding a horse. Every single day, they slept four hours every single day and spent the rest of the time rushing the journey to their destination. In general, they had field rations for meals. He was unwilling to waste any time stopping for food. That was when Master Cha knew how much of a rush Shen Leng was in. Du Weiming felt as though he was about to collapse at any time, but he did not say a single word. Naturally, it was unable to tell whether or not he was loyal to Shen Leng, but he was more afraid than anything. The majority of the fear came from Zhuang Yong. He gritted his teeth and pressed on because firstly, he no longer had his freedom; secondly, he was unwilling to lose to that
