Military Training Instance

This is the Ice and Snow Great Wall, also known as the Cold Trench. Six thousand years ago, the Abyss appeared in the northernmost Endless Mountains. When the army entered, it was like a black tide, devouring all life around it.

The three rulers of the Far North joined forces, leading countless creatures of the Far North to resist and hold their ground, all for the sake of the lights of thousands of homes behind them.

The Snow Empress and the Ice Empress joined forces to repel the Transformation Emperor and the Black Empress, who led the Abyss army to invade. At the same time, they used their Extreme Cold power to build a ten-thousand-mile-long Cold Trench to isolate the Abyss.

Now, the Military Training goal for Chen Jianshu and the others is... to hold the 10,000-mile -Cold Trench for fifteen days!

"Fellow soldiers, the Abyss has launched a massive invasion, ravaging our homeland. Now we will stand guard here, fight against the Abyss, defend the Cold Trench, and build peace."

The white-haired figure standing on the high platform looked at the three hundred people in front of him and loudly explained the content of this Military Training. When they saw several historical figures, everyone was very excited.

The Spirit Transferring Douluo extremely popular. Whether it's his historical fame, his contributions to society, or the various storylines related to him in the novels, he is loved by many.

For example, the most famous stories are those about the peerless Little Spirit Maiden and the happy marriage of Feng Xiao and the spirit maiden, followed by Little Huo Niang.

There's even a book called "Transmigrating to the Beast God Di Tian to Marry Little Spirit Maiden and Little Huoniang".

[Di Tian cursed], and upon closer inspection of what Zi JI had written, his vision went black. Sure enough, the Soul Beast Clan should just be wiped out sooner rather than later.

Of course, the inclusion of several historical figures to accompany them in the dungeon is also a deliberate choice.

Firstly, it serves to boost morale. After all, fighting alongside celebrities from ten thousand years ago and sharing the stage with idols would certainly excite everyone.

Secondly, the Military Training program also includes other aspects, such as the fact that the founder of the Federation's basic military theory and tactical theory was none other than Spirit Transferring Douluo.

The "Dragon's Strategy" and "Thirty-Six Stratagems" were passed down from the other side, and now we are teaching everyone knowledge through practical combat.

Incidentally, the Projection NPCs in the original instance were originally the same age as the students, around eleven or twelve years old.

At that time, the Spirit Transferring Douluo was also a young boy with the cultivation of Soul Ancestor. However, a hundred years ago, the Phoenix Family produced a legendary figure named Leng Yulai, also known as Phoenix Legend.

During the Military Training Projection at the time, Leng Yulai made several breathtaking moves, such as immediately launching a night raid on the Spirit Transferring Douluo and teasing historical figures.

What's even more suffocating is that after the Spirit Transferring NPC suppressed Leng Yulai, the latter actually looked like she was enjoying it. When the Evil Emperor saw this scene, he was utterly stunned. Indeed, humanity should just perish sooner rather than later.

Honestly, it's a miracle that Leng Yulai was able to graduate. Luckily, she has a Limit Douluo mother, otherwise she would have been expelled long ago.

At the same time, numerous task panels appeared before everyone, ordering them to guard the Cold Trench for fifteen days. Simultaneously, a countdown began, the surrounding energy barriers slowly disappeared, and the temperature dropped directly to zero degrees Celsius.

Over fifteen days, the protective shield will gradually disappear, and the surrounding temperature will slowly drop from zero degrees to even lower.

"Ouch~ It's so cold..."

As the mission began, everyone felt the cold, and some Soul Elder instinctively hugged themselves, shivering uncontrollably.

Chen Jianshu didn't feel anything, after all, his body Ice Immunity! The others on their side were in similar situations. Xu Xiaoyan, since consuming the Aromatic Silk Beauty, had also obtained the Ultimate Ice and the Starry Sky form.

Wu Siduo possesses a cat-like Martial Soul, and tigers are inherently imbued with pure yang energy, making them completely unafraid of the cold. Gu Yue, Na'er, and Gu Xuanyu are even less of a concern; have you ever seen the Dragon King afraid of such a slight temperature change?

On the other side, Xie Xie rubbed his hands together, feeling a bit cold, but since he was a level 37 Soul Elder, he wasn't affected much.

"Now, all soldiers, listen to my command! Divide yourselves into Assault Groups, long-range Assault Groups, Defense Groups, support groups, Scout Groups, and healing groups."

The Spirit Transferring Douluo on the high platform shouted again, and under his guidance, the group was quickly divided into several groups. Chen Jianshu joined the Assault Group. He was an all-around Soul Master, so it didn't matter which group he joined.

Weng Daimin was originally supposed to join the ranged Assault Group, but after she revealed that she and Xue Liushuang had Martial Soul Fusion Skill, she was exceptionally admitted to the Assault Group.

"Report! I want to join the Assault Group too!"

Just then, Gu Yue raised his hand to indicate that he wanted to join the Assault Group where Chen Jianshu was located. Upon hearing this report, the head instructor crossed his arms and looked over to inquire.

"Reason."

"I want to be in the same group as Chen Jianshu!"

Gu Yue stated her reasons quite confidently. Upon hearing these reasons, Spirit Transferring's expression darkened, and she then rejected Gu Yue's request.

"Go back. In the army, your job is to obey orders."

Gu Yue was immediately annoyed by the rejection, but she could only accept it. Soon the group assignments were completed, with the Assault Group having the most members, a total of 150 people.

Next came the ranged Assault Group and the Defense Group, each with fifty members; the Scout Group, with thirty members; the support team, with fifteen members; and the healing team, with five members.

"Now everyone, listen to my command. Ten men form a team, fifty men form a company, and we'll divide into five companies. The first company will guard the city wall for half a day, then the second and third companies will take over."

As commands were issued, everyone sprang into action. Chen Jianshu, the squad leader of the first company, followed Spirit Transferring onto the city wall.

He also curiously observed the Spirit Transferring Douluo, who bore a resemblance to himself. However, the Spirit Transferring Douluo seemed thinner, as if he didn't eat as well as he did, making him appear rather thin. Of course, Huo Yuhao was the thinnest of all.

However, Chen Jianshu knew that this was just an NPC in a dungeon, and he only glanced at it a few more times.

Then everyone stood on the Cold Trench, and the biting cold wind hit them in the face. Many of the Soul Masters who were only at the Soul Elder level wanted to change into a warm cotton-padded coat, and the Military Training uniform was also very uncomfortable to wear, not as comfortable as their regular clothes.

On the other side, fifty people were stationed on the city wall, while the remaining two hundred and fifty people were taking classes in the tents. Projection of Winter Butterfly Douluo, Sword-Obsessed Douluo, Angel Douluo, and Spirit Ice Douluo began to teach everyone basic military theory.

The theoretical course covers understanding the military distribution of the Federation. Military distribution is divided into many types, but can be broadly categorized into two main types: the military headquarters and the armed forces.

The armed forces consist of city defense troops, Public Security Officers, militia, law enforcement teams, and the like—armed forces that frequently appear in cities.

Next, the military is responsible for matters of war: the East Sea Legion and the North Sea Legion are the navy, and the Southern Angel Legion and the Fire Phoenix Legion are the air force.

The Terrorclaw Legion and the Central Legion are the army, the Emperor Dragon Legion and the Evil Lord Legion are the soul-guided legions, the Western Legion is the Desert special forces legion, and the Northwest Legion is the Extreme Cold special forces legion.

The Blood God Legion is Abyss Special Forces Legion, created specifically to fight against the Abyss, and its basic military theory is built around this knowledge.

The morning's lessons taught everyone a great deal of basic military theory, and everyone also had a peaceful morning—after all, there wasn't a single cutscene, so it must be safe.

Soon it was lunch break time. Chen Jianshu, being from the first squad of the first company, was responsible for guarding the Cold Trench during lunch break, while the other squads ate lunch. Various extra-large roasted whole lambs and roasted whole cows, which had been simply cooked, were brought out.

A variety of fragrant aromas filled the air, attracting everyone's attention. The Spirit Transferring Douluo addressed the crowd, saying:

"Gentlemen, given the circumstances, we'll just have something simple to eat; the taste isn't that important."

Soon everyone was ready to eat. As they ate the beef and mutton, they found that the taste was not bad. In such a harsh and cold environment, it was already quite good to have a meal. There was no kitchen here, so it was quite remarkable that they could manage to do this.

Soon, several figures attracted everyone's attention. The first figure had silver hair and pink eyes, and was gnawing on an entire cow. Then, another figure with silver hair appeared, this time a silver-eyed girl, who was also gnawing on an entire cow.

Finally, there was a black-haired boy. Next to him, a brown-haired boy summoned a dagger Martial Soul, cut the beef, and fed it to the black-haired boy.

That's right, these figures are Gu Xuanyu, Na'er, and Tang Wulin, the three legendary good-for-nothings. The last one is Tang Wulin's boyfriend, Xie Xie.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, the three of them were frantically devouring a ten-meter-long, thousand-year-old Tai Tan Giant Bull. They quickly finished one each. Their gluttony shocked everyone, who never expected it, considering they were all so small.

Like Gu Xuanyu and Na'er, Mingdu ten-year-old little girls, only 1.5 meters tall, yet they can swallow a ten- Tai Tan Giant Bull whole! Ten meters! What does that mean? A thousand-year-old Tai Tan Giant Bull that's two or three stories tall, they can actually take it down single-handedly! Are their stomachs in a four-dimensional space?!

"My God! Is this even human?!"

Dai Yun'er stared in disbelief as the three demonstrated their appetites. Although Long Yue possessed the Mountain Dragon Martial Soul, his situation differed from the others. He had only one Martial Soul, lacking the true Dragon King bloodline, and it was incomplete. Naturally, his appetite could not compare to the three of them.

One person can only eat half of a five-meter-long Tai Tan Giant Sheep. Looking at the three inhuman creatures in front of him, Long Yue felt a little defeated. He used to be a super glutton in the Star Luo Continent.

Dai Yun'er thought Long Yue was the biggest eater, but she didn't expect there to be another expert! Soon after Tang Wulin finished eating a whole cow, he was full, his belly swollen from Xie Xie's actions.

After all, it was Xie Xie who was feeding her, so saying that Xie Xie got her pregnant doesn't seem unreasonable. However, soon after, Na'er and Gu Xuanyu raised their hands and said:

"Is there any more? I'm not full yet."

These words shocked everyone present. Everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene. Seriously?! This thousand-year-old Tai Tan Giant Bull isn't even enough for the two of you to eat?

Upon hearing that the two were still hungry, the Spirit Transferring Douluo was speechless, and finally covered his face, saying:

"Eat up, eat up! If you're not satisfied, I'll go grill some more."

After that, Na'er ate a whole sheep, and Gu Xuanyu ate a whole cow. Each of them could eat the equivalent of a whole company's worth of food. Of course, the whole class soon knew about the legendary gluttons' deeds, mainly because each of them ate a ten-meter-long cow, which was already outrageous.

After all, only a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast could eat that much in one meal, and it had to be the kind of Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast with an exceptionally large appetite. Also, a normal Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast can basically maintain its bodily functions with its internal Soul Power, and eating is usually just to satisfy its appetite.

Half an hour later, Chen Jianshu and the others took turns eating, and soon it was afternoon.

He remained standing on the city wall, gazing at the snow-covered landscape in the distance, a magnificent sight of ice and snow stretching for miles, with the Endless Mountains in the distance filled with endless dangers.

Inside the tent, the members of the second to fifth companies continued their lessons, with Spirit Ice Douluo explaining the enemies they would encounter later.

A ferocious creature resembling a frog with fish-like fins on its back appeared on the Projector. The creature was dark green all over and had extremely sharp claws on its hands. Spirit Ice Douluo the creature's information.

"This creature is called Predator, under the command of the Abyss Hunting Emperor. Its combat strength surpasses that of Soul Elder. Its forepaws are sharp enough to tear flesh apart. It has no intelligence, only knowing how to kill. It lives in groups, and if one appears, it means that there are at least a hundred more roaming nearby."

"Abyss Creature cannot be killed normally. Even if you kill them normally, they will turn into Abyss energy and return to the Lord of the Abyss Plane Master."

"Abyss energy can only be countered with devouring-type talents or Soul Tools. This energy can only be stored through the human body. Abyss energy has the characteristic of eroding a person's mind, making it extremely difficult to deal with."

In terms of combat power, if the nine emperors of the Abyss were to launch a full-scale attack on the Douluo Continent with all Abyss members, the human race would not be without hope of victory, provided that the Abyssal Sage King did not intervene.

However, what makes the Abyss terrifying is not its combat power, but its Abyss Laws. When Abyss Creature die, they return to the Abyss Plane and are transformed into new energy.

In particular, if the Abyss Creature consume the creatures of the Douluo plane, they can even use the energy of the Douluo Plane to nourish the Abyss, which is the truly troublesome aspect.

For six thousand years, people have only been able to fight against these monsters by relying on divine artifacts such as the Golden Dragon Spear and the Sky- and Earth-Devouring Scythe, as well as Soul Masters and Soul Beasts with the talent of devouring.

However, the energy of the Abyss is too violent. If too much is absorbed, it will inevitably cause a backlash, driving the devourer mad, out of control, and assimilated by the Abyss. Countless compatriots have died over the millennia.

Listening to Spirit Ice Douluo's account, the students all looked grave. This kind of unkillable monster was indeed terrifying, and it was like a leech clinging to the bone, Entanglement itself around Douluo Star and sucking its marrow.

Everyone was filled with trepidation when they learned that they were about to face such a terrifying monster.

Meanwhile, atop the city wall, Chen Jianshu looked at Spirit Transferring, who was stationed at the arrow tower on the wall, and asked:

"Chief Instructor Spirit Transferring, shouldn't we send scouts to investigate the area?"

Hearing the sound, Spirit Transferring looked over and then replied:

"This is your first day here, and you're not familiar with the area. If you rashly embark on a scouting mission, it might backfire and cause casualties. Our mission is to guard a thousand-meter stretch of this Cold Trench, remote region. Someone will be sent back to warn others."

Hearing the responses, Chen Jianshu was also curious whether the first day would be a peaceful night or an eventful one. He had never fought against the Abyss Creature before and didn't know their strength.
