The barracks were very quiet, with only occasional fluctuations of fire elemental energy and some slight noises, which were coming from Lin Xin as he refined pills. The others were all immersed in meditation.

In this Devil Expelling Pass, they had to face the demon armies at any time. Everyone understood the importance of improving their strength. Pressure creates motivation, and pressure stimulates potential. The entire Rank 1 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad was slowly improving under this pressure. To Long Haochen’s surprise, the side effects of the Spirit Burst Pill only lasted about six hours in his case, and the feeling of weakness gradually disappeared, rather than the twelve hours that Lin Xin had mentioned. This must be related to his own physique.

The peace of cultivation lasted until the afternoon. After eating another hearty lunch, the door to the barracks was knocked open after the group had cultivated for less than an hour. An order came from the Devil Expelling Pass military department.

A moment later, Long Haochen led his Rank 1 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad partners to meet the other nine newly formed Demon Hunt Squads.

What were they going to do by gathering all the new Demon Hunt Squads that had come for the trials?

Not only Long Haochen was puzzled, but the sixty young powerhouses from the Six Great Temples present had similar thoughts. After all, they had only been in the infantry camp for a day. Could it be that the arrangements had changed so quickly?

In fact, there had indeed been a change. This change was mainly caused by two factors. The first was the performance of these ten new Demon Hunt Squads in the battle on the city wall yesterday.

New Demon Hunt Squads had never come to Devil Expelling Pass for trials before. This was the first time, so the generals of the Devil Expelling Pass, including Saint Spiritual Heart, had not figured out the best way to arrange for them. So, they decided to let them go to the most difficult infantry camp to train and hone their edges.

The result was a surprise to the Devil Expelling Pass soldiers. Yesterday, when the ten infantry battalions assigned to the new Demon Hunt Squads were deployed to defend the city, the combat power they displayed far exceeded the original estimates of the Devil Expelling Pass generals. The losses in the assigned infantry battalions were less than one-fifth of what they usually were. Keep in mind that each infantry battalion only had six more people!

No wonder the Devil Expelling Pass generals were surprised. The overall strength of this year’s new Demon Hunt Squad members was indeed the strongest in nearly a century. Not to mention anything else, people like Yang Wenzhao, Long Haochen, Cai’er, Duan Yi, and Huang Yi would definitely be champions in previous years. The Knight Temple alone had five fifth-level knights this year!

The other reason was Long Haochen. Although Long Haochen covered up the truth for Saint Spiritual Heart, his performance on the battlefield was seen by all the Radiant Angel Knight Order knights and the Shadow Night Assassin assassins. The Radiant Angel Knight Order commander had been badgering the general, who was temporarily replacing Saint Spiritual Heart as the military chief, for a day, demanding that Long Haochen, or preferably Long Haochen and his entire team, be transferred to the Radiant Angel Knight Order.

Last night, if it weren’t for Hao Yue’s several Eyes of Truth, the Radiant Angel Knight Order would probably not have had even half of its members return. In the army, what is most important is not individual strength, but the help an individual provides to the army on the battlefield. No matter how strong you are alone, no matter how many enemies you kill, if your comrades all die in the end, you are still not a good soldier.

Last night, Saint Spiritual Heart exploded, using the Childlike Spirit Stove with a determination to die to annihilate a large number of powerful enemies. Long Haochen was the one who turned around and ran with him, snatching Saint Spiritual Heart’s life back from the three demon gods.

It all happened so fast at the time. After returning, the generals didn’t say much because of the presence of Saint Spiritual Heart, the Knight. But after thinking about it, Long Haochen could be said to have made two great contributions.

Long Haochen was the champion of this year’s new Demon Hunt Squad individual competition, and naturally the representative of this year’s new Demon Hunt Squad. His excellent performance also made all the Demon Hunt Squad members truly valued by the Devil Expelling Pass military.

Keeping these elites in the infantry camp was definitely a waste of talent. Therefore, there was a change, and they were going to be assigned new tasks.

As the leader of Rank 1 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad, Long Haochen, naturally, the others’ eyes fell on him as soon as he arrived with his team.

Yang Wenzhao’s gaze first fell on Chen Ying’er, but Chen Ying’er hugged Wang Yuanyuan’s arm and didn’t even look at him.

“Brother Yang, hello.” Long Haochen took the initiative to greet Yang Wenzhao. Although the two had a strong competitive relationship, they were also the best of the younger generation in the Knight Temple, and this competition was beneficial.

Yang Wenzhao smiled slightly and said, “Brother Long, how was your harvest yesterday?”

He was naturally asking about military merits. Long Haochen smiled and said, “Not bad.”

As he spoke, he greeted the other new Demon Hunt Squad leaders separately. Among the ten new Demon Hunt Squads, only the second, third, and fourth squads were qualified to compete with them for the first place in the team competition. Although the remaining six Demon Hunt Squads were also very good, there was still a big gap compared to the top four.

The tall Duan Yi was the most steady. After greeting Long Haochen, he didn’t say anything more. The leader of Rank 4 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad was the fifth-level priest, and he wasn’t familiar with Long Haochen, but Li Xin was! She had already walked over and chatted with Long Haochen about the battle yesterday.

Obviously, it wasn’t just Long Haochen and his team who performed well in the city defense battle yesterday. The second, third, and fourth new Demon Hunt Squads were also surprisingly strong, and their overall lethality even exceeded Long Haochen’s team. After all, the mages and summoners on Long Haochen’s side were not in their original roles, and their overall lethality was not necessarily the strongest among all the new Demon Hunt Squads.

At this moment, several Devil Expelling Pass generals walked over with the ten team leaders. The Demon Hunt Squad members immediately quieted down and returned to their respective teams.

The general walking in the front, Long Haochen, had seen yesterday, but didn’t know his name. Gao Yinjie walked with him and came to the front of the ten Demon Hunt Squads.

“Hello everyone, I am Gu Jin, a major general under Chief Saint. First of all, the Devil Expelling Pass military department would like to express our heartfelt gratitude for your excellent performance in the city defense battle yesterday. The Devil Expelling Pass soldiers will always remember everything you have done for the Devil Expelling Pass.”

Listening to General Gu Jin’s words, the young people in the Demon Hunt Squads couldn’t help but show excitement in their eyes. For these young elites under the age of twenty-five, being recognized by the military was extremely important. This was related to their evaluation of this trial and also related to the military merits rewards that each team would eventually receive.

Military merits were too important for Demon Hunt Squads. With enough military merits, they could learn stronger secret techniques and exchange for better equipment. Naturally, they could also take on more difficult and merit-rich missions, constantly improving themselves. There were some gaps between the various Demon Hunt Squads now, but who could say for sure after a few years? In history, there have been many famous and powerful Demon Hunt Squads that were unknown when they were first formed.

Gu Jin said, “In view of your strength and excellent performance, the Devil Expelling Pass military department has decided to assign you some military tasks to complete from now on.”

As he spoke, soldiers behind him were already holding up a military map… The sky was getting late, and compared to yesterday, the demon army’s offensive was much weaker today. Basically, no powerful demon sequences participated in the attack on the city, and only some cannon fodder rushed over. Although it could cause some losses to the Devil Expelling Pass, it was far from enough to shake the foundation.

Under the cover of the dark night, a gap quietly opened in the Devil Expelling Pass city gate. Immediately afterwards, one figure after another stooped and slipped out of the gap, quietly leaving along the bottom of the city wall, concealed by the darkness. There were not many people in this group, less than a hundred in total. When the city gate quietly closed again, it was as if nothing had happened.

They were naturally the ten new Demon Hunt Squads that had received missions from the Devil Expelling Pass military. This small team, composed of young elites from the Six Great Temples, was temporarily led by Long Haochen, the leader of Rank 1 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad, with Yang Wenzhao and Duan Yi as deputy leaders, responsible for commanding the entire team.

The mission was not complicated: to attack the demon army’s logistics supply. According to the scouts, a demon army transport team will be transporting supplies to the demon army camp at dawn tomorrow. Their mission was to destroy this demon supply and destroy these materials on the spot.

Outside the Devil Expelling Pass, the terrain is mainly plains and hills, making it easy to hide a small team of only sixty-one people. Also, because the terrain is too open, it is impossible for the demon army to completely block the front of the Devil Expelling Pass. Therefore, this mission seems dangerous, but it is not difficult. After all, the Devil Expelling Pass rarely sends troops to attack the demon army’s transport team. This time, it can be considered a surprise attack.

Taking advantage of the night, the sixty-one people silently advanced along one side of the Devil Expelling Pass, all the way to the foot of the Demon Suppression Mountain Range, and then detoured from the north side, quietly heading towards the rear of the demon army camp, gazing at it from afar.

Everyone put on black night suits, traveling light. Even the mages were not slow with the help of the Levitation spell. The summoners and priests were also assisted by the mages’ Levitation spell to minimize consumption.

It only took them more than half an hour to bypass the twenty-mile joint camp of the frontal demon army. After detouring another ten miles, ensuring that there were no demon scouts present with the continuous reconnaissance of the priests’ Eyes of Truth and the mages’ Eyes of Detection, the knights summoned their mounts, and the summoners also summoned their own magical beasts. The sixty-one person team accelerated with all their might, heading towards the far rear of the demon army camp.

Long Haochen and his Rank 1 Warrior-level Demon Hunt Squad partners were in the front. Long Haochen, Cai’er, Chen Ying’er, and Lin Xin were all on Hao Yue’s back. There was no other way. Chen Ying’er, the unreliable summoner, couldn’t summon a suitable mount. However, Hao Yue was more than four meters long, so the four of them didn’t feel crowded.
