Chapter 935: Monks Must Fight
Zhang Xuan asked: "Then this Hongmeng Purple Qi may be difficult to exchange for, right?"
"Of course. There are only three strands of Hongmeng purple energy in the eight treasure areas. The competition must be very fierce, and the required military merit is even more massive, so you don't have to think about the Hongmeng energy. But if you want to exchange it for other things, it's no problem."
"How much is this military achievement worth?" Zhang Xuan asked.
"For example, I can only get 10 battle merit points as a reward per month, which can be exchanged for two fourth-level elixirs."
"5 battle merit points can be exchanged for a fourth-level pill. Doesn't this mean that my 1000 battle merit points can be exchanged for 200 fourth-level pills?" Zhang Xuan was surprised and happy.
"Yes, and this is just the current price. The price of war merit will become higher in the future. It may even rise to one war merit for one fourth-level elixir. And it is a bit wasteful to use war merit to exchange for fourth-level elixirs. When a certain amount is accumulated, it can be used to exchange for fifth-level talismans, fifth-level elixirs, or even spiritual treasures."
Henry Zhang couldn't help but feel excited after hearing this: "I didn't expect that military exploits would be so useful!"
"Of course it is useful. The eight treasure areas took out all their hidden treasures as rewards."
"Aren't all the things at the bottom of the box hidden away? Are you really willing to take them out?"
"The reason you ask this is because you don't know how this war merit quota comes from."
"Aren't the war merits distributed by each treasure domain? Are there any restrictions?"
"Of course there are limits. If there were no limits, a treasure domain would definitely try its best to award military merits to its own soldiers and exchange all the good things from other treasure domains. Do you think it can last long?"
"It really can't last long."
"This forms a war merit quota system. The more things a treasure domain takes out that can be exchanged, the more war merit quota this treasure domain can get. The more war merit points this treasure domain can give to its soldiers, the greater the probability that the cultivators in this treasure domain will obtain the Hongmeng Purple Qi. This also causes each treasure domain to do its best to take out the things that are in the bottom of the box in order to obtain more war merit quotas. It is impossible to keep them privately. No matter how precious the things in the bottom of the box are, can they be as precious as the Hongmeng Purple Qi?"
Henry Zhang nodded and said, “Indeed, the war merit quota system is indeed relatively fair.
He now realized that these 1000 military merits were indeed extremely rare and were probably comparable to top-grade spirit stones.
"Zuo Jinwu said that as long as you can continue to assist in the training, you will be rewarded with 5000 points of military merit for each square formation you assist in completing."
"Is this true?" Zhang Xuan was stunned.
"Of course it's true. There's no joking in the military."
Zhang Xuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and suddenly became energetic.
This opportunity to gain military merit is rare.
At this moment, all the ideas of "the protruding rafters will rot first" and "keeping a low profile" were thrown aside by him.
"The monks must fight!"
Zhang Xuan wished he could carve these four words on his forehead.
Hu Yan, the commander of the army, said, "Today you only have one day to provide guidance in your own square. In the next few days, you will be in the other four squares to provide guidance. As for how much military merit you can get, it depends on your personal ability."
Henry Zhang laughed and said, "Don't worry, Commander Hu Yan. I will dismantle the Honglun Army Array today and distribute it to each team. I will let them operate it skillfully within three days."
Hu Yan, the commander of the army, was delighted when he heard this: "Can you really make them master the operation of the Grand Wheel Army Formation within three days?"
Henry Zhang nodded and said, "No problem. As long as the Honglun Army Formation is disassembled, it will be very easy to master it."
"Okay, okay..." General Huyan nodded happily.
Next, Zhang Xuan kept shuttling between the teams, explaining the disassembled Honglun Army Formation to the generals, and finally made each team in the square formation able to grasp the essence and operation methods of the Honglun Army Formation.
After that, it’s time to get used to each other.
The next day, Zhang Xuan arrived at the third formation.
The third formation was not practicing the Honglun military formation, but the Tianta military formation.
The position of the third phalanx was slightly higher than that of the fourth phalanx where he was, and was directly above the fourth phalanx.
The grids of the entire third team are arranged from bottom to top, forming the shape of a tall tower.
Zhang Xuan studied the Tianta military formation carefully and comprehended it attentively.
Relying on his insights as a high-level formation master and high-level weapon refiner as well as the powerful integration ability of the Zhuzhao Heyi Book.
He dismantled the Tianta Army Formation again and taught it to the 20 teams of the third party team.
It only took one day for the generals of each team in the third formation to fully grasp the dismantled Tianta military formation.
What follows is the practical training and running-in of each team in the third formation.
On the third day, the ladder he was riding continued to rise.
He came to the fifth phalanx.
The fifth phalanx is taller than the third phalanx, and its grids are densely distributed, making it the largest phalanx.
The grid of the fifth phalanx is divided into four parts, and the military formation practiced is called the Four Symbols Formation.
Zhang Xuan still dissected the Four Elephants Army Formation like a butcher cutting up an ox, and taught it to the generals of each squad of the fifth team.
On the fourth day, he left the fifth phalanx, flew to the right on a flying boat, and arrived at the second phalanx.
The second formation stretched forward like a river, and was also filled with densely packed grids.
The military formation practiced was the Star Arm Formation.
Zhang Xuan read the Star Arm Army Formation carefully, comprehended it attentively, disassembled it, and taught it to the generals of the second formation.
On the fifth day, he came to the last phalanx, which was the first phalanx.
The size of the first phalanx was about the same as their fourth phalanx, and they were practicing the Daqian military formation.
He dismantled it one by one and handed over each step of the dismantling to the generals of each team in the first phalanx.
It took five days to finally complete the tutoring task for five groups.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zhang Xuan should be able to get the military merit as scheduled.
In addition to these military achievements, Zhang Xuan also had an unexpected surprise by comprehending the jade slips of the five square formations.
"The military formation on this giant warship is similar to the fragments of the Cangji Demon Emperor's scroll that I comprehended from the Wuji Tianjian."
He vaguely felt that the five military formations he was practicing were like half of the body of a giant.
The grand wheel army formation is like the feet of a giant.
The Tianta Army Formation is like the legs of a giant.
The Four Elephants Army Formation is like the internal organs of a giant.
The Star Arm Army Formation is like the arms of a giant.
The Daqian army formation is like a giant's hand.
Moreover, the number of crisscrossing array patterns in the army formation is incalculable, like the capillaries in a giant's body.
Now he can only memorize the contents of the five military formations, and he will not be able to fully comprehend this military formation in a short time.
However, he was sure that once the military formation was in operation, the power and potential of this giant would be astonishing.
"This is only half. If I can master the complete military formation of this giant warship, maybe I will have the opportunity to lead the monks of Fairy Cat Valley to refine such a giant warship in the future." Zhang Xuan's face was full of hope.
