A Somewhat Unexpected Outcome

Moreover, Long Yu Xue had naturally witnessed Wu Yang Jin's strength, and she was certain that he was stronger than Tang Wu Lin.

If Wu Yang Jin isn't one of them, then what is his other identity?

"You must still be wondering what Wu Yang Jin's true identity is, right? Needless to say, it's actually quite easy to guess. He's probably just naive and didn't try to fight for it. Also, for him, the Shrek Seven Devils don't represent him," Long Tianwu said.

"Is... is that so?" Long Yu Xue was at a loss for words.

"Actually, with Shrek City destroyed and Shrek Academy destroyed, these children were sent here hoping to avoid being targeted while also ensuring their improvement," Long Tianwu said.

"Moreover, think about it. Based on my verification, the talents displayed by these two children, Wu Yang Jin and Tang Wu Lin, are unparalleled. Therefore, Tang Wu Lin is not to be underestimated, and Wu Yang Jin will certainly not be ordinary either. In fact, the burdens he shoulders are unimaginable to us, and the dangers are the same as theirs," Long Tianwu said.

"But..."

"Daughter, I know that telling you to stay away isn't the right thing to do. I also know that in just the last couple of days, you've become more cheerful and outgoing since you met that boy, even though you've always been a kind and cheerful person. But I'm genuinely worried that you might be in danger in the future," Long Tianwu said.

"But our Blood God Legion is relatively independent, so it won't affect anything! No one will cause trouble for him here!" Long Yu Xue said.

"Yes, but silly girl, think about it. Given his background and his strength, one day Wu Yang Jin will leave with his companions! He can't stay in the Blood God Legion forever," Long Tianwu said.

Yes, Wu Yang Jin will leave, but in Long Yu Xue's memory, truly outstanding soldiers will choose to stay here.

However, it is indeed true: an eighth-level Forging Master, an eight-ring Soul Master, from Shrek.

Moreover, the fact that he is the leader of the Shrek Seven Monsters doesn't represent him. Would someone like that really stay here in the future?

"Daughter, actually... I also wanted to say that this child's talent, after my verification, is definitely worth it. I don't know what you think, but if it really happens, I won't stop it," Long Tianwu said.

In fact, Long Tianwu was thinking a lot, but Long Yu Xue was thinking about something else entirely.

"No, Dad, I... I'll go ask him!" With that, Long Yu Xue ran out.

Then, Long Tianwu made a call to explain that the exchange rate of Merit Points earned by all support professions had increased.

Almost, increasing it to 120 percent will allow you to exchange it for a higher value than before.

From now on, however, it shall not be used for promotion; only combat Merit Points may be used to advance military rank.

"Yang Jin-ge, what's wrong with you and Wulin?" At this moment, everyone gathered in the cafeteria, looking at the two of them with some disappointment.

"Sigh, I got a client this morning, but all day has passed and I haven't met anyone," Wu Yang Jin said.

"That's right, Yang Jin and I are at level seven and level eight respectively, so why is there no one here?" Tang Wu Lin said.

"Although I have my own thoughts, is it really necessary?" Wu Yang Jin said.

"Yang Jin, I think... um, are you thinking that the news might be blocked?" Hu Meier said at this moment.

"Yeah, that's true. After all, it's the military, and we've all been discovered. Surely some people have ulterior motives, right? But the news is really well-sealed, if it's true. Although, this won't last forever," Wu Yang Jin said.

Yes, that would be true, because the next day, when Lu Ni returned, she brought with her five female officers.

The workload this time surprised the two of them. Knowing their capabilities, they decided to do more.

Among them, three were female majors, and their workload included forging a complete set of Spirit Forging Battle Armor.

Unfortunately, the workload wasn't a problem, and I received a considerable amount of compensation. After seeing the finished product, I asked them to do other things.

Then, Tang Wu Lin, all by himself, happily prepared to get a promotion, only to be greatly disappointed.

Incidentally, Wu Yang Jin didn't go because he already held that position, which was sufficient for him.

So there's no rush, but Tang Wu Lin came back and told him that this method of improvement could no longer be used.

"Huh? It can't be used anymore? Is it because they're afraid we'll improve too quickly?" Wu Yang Jin asked.

"Yeah, Yang Jin, that's what I think too," Tang Wu Lin said dejectedly.

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Let's try a different approach. Let's not make things too busy, but we definitely can't let our levels fall behind," Wu Yang Jin said.

Just then, Long Yu Xue knocked on the door. She had been looking happy, but when she saw the two of them, she looked puzzled.

"Huh? Wu Yang Jin, what's wrong with you guys? I just ran into Sister Lu Ni, didn't she introduce you to a lot of jobs?" Long Yu Xue asked.

"That's true, but we just learned that the Merit Points we've earned this way can no longer be used to promote our military rank," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Huh? What?! Really?" Long Yu Xue said, she had no idea either.

"Yes, sir, what Yang Jin said is true. I was told about it when I went to think about promotion," Tang Wu Lin said.

Upon hearing this, Long Yu Xue immediately knew what had happened, because it must be because Long Tianwu had listened to what she said and done.

Then, Long Yu Xue told Wu Yang Jin and Tang Wu Lin about some things she and her father Long Tianwu, had discussed before.

"Yang Jin, Wulin, I... I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to," Long Yu Xue said.

"Hey, it's okay. You didn't do it on purpose. It's normal to chat with your father or even hug him. Don't blame yourself," Wu Yang Jin said.

"I understand, but I'm still very sorry. However, I... I'll go talk to them." Long Yu Xue bowed and said, then turned around to think of another solution.

"Wait a minute! Beautiful Commander, I think you shouldn't go. It's not that I'm blaming you, but you definitely won't be able to solve anything. Think about it, this was decided by your father, the higher-ups have already made the decision, and we have indeed advanced too quickly at this level, which is definitely not acceptable," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Well, we should still give it a try!" Long Yu Xue said, and then Wu Yang Jin let her go.

However, it will be a while before we see Long Yu Xue again.

When I saw her again, she looked tired and seemed to have been crying.

"This..." Wu Yang Jin and Tang Wu Lin looked at each other, not expecting the other party to be so concerned.

"Um, Yu Xue... oh no, beautiful officer, are you alright?" Wu Yang Jin stepped forward and asked.

The next second, Long Yu Xue seemed a little tired and sad as she threw herself into Wu Yangjin's arms, and also seemed a little helpless.

"I... I tried my best! Yang Jin, I really tried to persuade you, but it still didn't work. I... I'm so sorry," Long Yu Xue said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.

"Alright, alright, beautiful commander, don't be sad. I know you'll feel guilty, but it's not your fault. Blaming yourself too much will only harm your health. Besides, the jobs Wulin and I get earn us a lot of Merit Points. Even if we can't use them for advancement, aren't you confident in our abilities? Especially me, didn't you see my strength when you were in charge of my assessment?" Wu Yang Jin said.

In response, Tang Wu Lin explained that the two of them were trying to cheer Long Yu Xue up.

"I... I understand, thank you." Long Yu Xue said, pulling herself together and leaving Wu Yang Jin's embrace.

Afterwards, Wu Yang Jin also thought that Long Yu Xue was quite a sentimental person, and that she was so considerate of them.

However, it's not really Long Yu Xue's fault that the rules were changed. Wu Yang Jin also hopes that Long Yu Xue can recover her condition as soon as possible.
