In Fengzhou, heavy snow was flying, snow was covered with snow on the ground, and the whole of Fengzhou was covered with silver.

On the school ground, 20,000 soldiers gathered together, each of them was neatly formed, and a stern appearance was stern.

After two months of hard training, the soldiers were no longer what they were before. Now they have a sense of strength and sharpness on their bodies, like a sharp sword unsheathed.

"Not bad!" Li Longji rode on the Zhaoye Lion King and looked at the military formation, very satisfied.

It is very rare to be able to train the recruits like this in two months.

"But there is still a lack of murderous aura. Well, this is not something that can be trained on the training ground. You have to fight on the battlefield." Li Longji knew very well that this army was not yet called an elite, because only the army that had been tested on the battlefield was a truly excellent army and a real elite.

Although this army has been well trained, it has never been on the battlefield and has nothing to do with the word "elite".

"Brothers: After two months of hard training, you have made great progress and are more energetic! They are more fierce and sharp! This is a good thing!" Li Longji spoke loudly and said, "I am very satisfied!"

"Haha!" The soldiers burst into laughter and were very happy.

Li Longji has a high status in the minds of the soldiers. Being praised by Li Longji and being satisfied with Li Longji is a supreme joy for the soldiers.

"I want to select a thousand people to become my guards. Do you want to?" Li Longji asked loudly with a smile on his face.

"willing!"

The soldiers shouted in unison, shaking the sky.

Who doesn’t want to become Li Longji’s guard? The soldiers will not be happy.

"Thank you brothers." Li Longji clasped his fists and then changed his mind and said, "But not everyone can take care of my guards, and they must go through strict screening. Next, it is time to test you."

"Why would you like to ask the King of Chu, how to test it?" Some soldiers couldn't help but ask hurriedly, looking expectant.

These words were exactly what the soldiers thought. They all stared at Li Longji with their eyes wide open, staring at him with their ears, listening quietly, for fear of missing a word.

As Wu Zetian's grandson, Li Longji came to Fengzhou regardless of his safety, which was enough to convince him. Not to mention, Li Longji also lifted the siege of Fengzhou and allowed Fengzhou to win a great victory. More importantly, Li Longji did not have the airs of the emperor's grandson, was very easy-going and friendly, which made the soldiers and people feel good about it. What a glory it would be if he could become his guard!

It's enough to shine the family!

"You can't wait, right?" Li Longji asked.

"Haha." The soldiers burst into laughter, which was considered as an answer.

"Okay. I will fulfill you." Li Longji's tone suddenly turned higher and said, "Run away for me!"

"Run? King Chu, how long does it take?" a soldier asked.

"Run until I am satisfied." Li Longji's face was solemn and said in a deep voice: "If I can't run to satisfy me, I'm not worthy of being my guard!"

"Okay! It will definitely satisfy the King of Chu!" The soldiers were extremely excited. Can running stump people? In the past two months, they have not been able to run for ten or eight miles one day.

With Li Longji's order, the soldiers began to run.

They thought this was very simple, but they didn't expect it. Li Longji gave them a huge problem. He exhausted thousands of people, but Li Longji did not mean to stop. He exhausted ten thousand people, but Li Longji did not mean to stop. He exhausted ten thousand people, but Li Longji did not mean to stop.

"King of Chu, why don't you let me stop?" The soldiers couldn't help it.

"I am not satisfied." Li Longji's answer was enough to make people angry.

Twenty thousand people are exhausted and 15,000 people are still not satisfied. What is satisfaction?

Li Longji stopped until there were only three thousand people left.

"You can go to the second level." Li Longji announced on the spot, surpriseing these three thousand people and regretting others.

"You have a cup of tea to prepare." Li Longji immediately announced, saying: "The next level is riding, I wish you good luck."

"Riding? This is very simple, you still need to take the exam?"

"That's right. Who of us can't ride a horse?"

"I can't ride a horse, but I'm worthy of being a Tang Dynasty man?"

Everyone in the Tang Dynasty can ride horses and shoot archery, and the riding skills are too simple.

However, when they arrived with the war horse, they were stunned.

I saw that there were dense obstacles on the school ground, but there were still many fire circles.

"From here, I rode over there, and there were no injuries or those who fell off the horse. It was considered to be a passing pass." Li Longji announced loudly.

"Is this...will people still live?" Although the soldiers thought they were extraordinary in riding, it was too difficult to pass by here by riding a horse.

"My guards are all elite soldiers and must have excellent riding skills." Li Longji said coldly: "If you go to the battlefield, the situation you encounter may be more sinister than this. You can't even pass this and you are not worthy of being my guard!"

"Okay, let's run." The soldiers gritted their teeth and rode their horses.

Some people kept falling off the horse and were eliminated unfortunately. In this level, one thousand people were beaten, and only two thousand people were left.

"The third level, shoot arrows." Li Longji immediately announced the test.

The soldiers were very happy to shoot bows and shoot arrows. They didn't expect that Li Longji gave them a hard bow of one stone, which was much more harsh than the hard bow of one stone during the election.

If it were in the past, it would have stumped many people. However, for today's soldiers, killing five is nothing, and it is okay.

However, this is not a real test. The real test is that the target is moving. Some people use a rope to lead the target and move quickly, and they must all be placed on the target to be considered qualified.

In the past two months, the target of the soldiers shooting archery has been fixed and has not moved, and they were stunned on the spot.

"On the battlefield, the Turks are alive and can run. If you can't shoot this target, you are not worthy of being my guard." Li Longji said ruthlessly.

Five hundred people were eliminated in this level, only one thousand five hundred people.

"The fourth level, sword technique." Li Longji announced again.

"Sword technique? It's okay, I'll decide this guard."

"That's right. In the past two months, we have worked hard to practice knife skills. Whether it is chopping wooden stakes or cutting them, it is no problem. Haha."

When the soldiers heard that the sword skills were tested, they felt completely relieved.

However, when the test began, they were stunned again.

Did Li Longji give them a wooden stake or not, but did not ask them to cut it against each other, but threw it into the air and then cut it off with a knife.

The cloth was very soft and was thrown in the air and cut it with a knife. The difficulty suddenly increased a lot, and the soldiers were shocked.

In this level, another 300 people were eliminated, leaving only 1,200 people.

"Congratulations, the best one thousand people are my guards, and the remaining two hundred substitutes." Li Longji announced.

"Long live the King of Chu!" They were very excited and cheered in unison.

In the end, he chose one thousand with the highest comprehensive score as guards, and the two hundred substitutes were also happy. Although he failed to officially become Li Longji's guards, this opportunity still exists, and the substitutes cannot be unhappy.

"Tonight, you can rest for a night and start training tomorrow." Li Longji threw down a sentence and rode away on his horse.

"I'm going to train tomorrow? I will work hard and never let the King of Chu down."

"That's right! I'll get through it even if I grit my teeth."

"We have been training for two months, and training is not the same thing."

The soldiers were very excited and thought that tomorrow's training was not the same thing.

The next morning, Li Longji gathered the thousand people together to train.

"You are all here, it's great!" Li Longji is different today than usual. He doesn't wear a helmet and armor, but wears a precious fox fur, with a red face, as if it's very hot.

"The first thing is to take off your clothes and take off all of me!" Li Longji ordered loudly.

"What? Take off your clothes?"

"Impossible? Is it possible? Do you want someone to live if you take off your clothes in such a cold day?"

The soldiers strongly opposed it.

"King of Chu, what are you going to do? Could it be you..." Someone was thinking a little wrongly.

"You don't even look at you, like an old tree bark. Will I be interested in you? Bah!" Li Longji's face sank and spat fiercely.

"King of Chu, it's very cold this day. If you take off your clothes, you will get frozen." Someone reminded carefully.

"No, right? Well, you don't have to be my guard." Li Longji's eyes shined.

"Take it off! Take it off! Can't it be done?" The soldiers gritted their teeth and had to take off their clothes, with only a pair of underwear.

"Children, wash it." Zhang Xiaofei was so excited that he raised his throat and howled. A group of soldiers carrying buckets stepped forward, and the water in the bucket splashed at the soldiers like a group of soldiers.

"What are you doing?"

"Why did you splash water?"

Amid the shouts of these soldiers, they were all splashed with chickens, and screams were heard.

"Hiss! Hiss!" A sound of sucking air sounded, and everyone hugged their bodies tightly, shaking.

"Training, start!" Zhang Xiaofei roared and announced that their hell life had begun.

The group of soldiers wanted to stay away from moving, and Zhang Xiaofei whipped the whip in his hand, and it was so skinny that it was rotten when he whipped it. He was so cruel and showed no mercy. The group of soldiers were afraid and had to train honestly.

At first, they were very cold and trembled with coldness. After training for a while, they were no longer cold, and it was much easier to train.

After training, everyone was sweating heavily and their throats were smoking.

"I'm so thirsty! I want to drink water very much."
