Chapter 768: Chapter 416: 7th Era: Planetary Fortress, Enlistment Assessment!_2
But when everyone heard these words, they still felt a bit restless.
The military has strict regulations and clear hierarchy.
Subordinates must unconditionally obey superior orders, even if ordered to certain death, they cannot refute.
The purpose of the enlistment assessment is to evaluate everyone’s strength and potential through various mechanisms, and then assign them to different battalions or units.
Poor assessment performance can only serve as cannon fodder, unable to survive more than three days on the Starfield Battlefield.
But if the assessment results are excellent, they have the right to receive more privileges and resources.
After all, the Starfield Battlefield is so cruel, and the Star Alliance wants people to willingly risk their lives for it, naturally, it must offer a large amount of resources and rewards.
Advanced Mecha, various weapons, high-tier combat skills, genetic modification technology...
As long as you have enough strength and battle merits, you can even obtain cultivation techniques!
So if someone can seize this opportunity, they could rapidly rise and become an important combat power at the Soldier King Level in a short period!
So to some extent,
this enlistment assessment will determine everyone’s fate and destiny.
Saying it’s the most important test in their lives is by no means an exaggeration!
Then the intelligent light-brain on Celestial Shield Star announced the assessment rules to everyone.
This assessment will take place at Eagle Nest Base.
The intelligent light-brain will conduct comprehensive tests on everyone’s physical fitness, soul strength, special abilities, and military strategy, among other items.
The assessment results are divided into four levels: unqualified, ordinary, excellent, outstanding.
Those ordinary people with weak flesh bodies and without special skills mostly receive unqualified scores.
Their only role is to use their lives to possibly block the Dark Insect Race’s attacks.
As for those who meet physical fitness standards and have the power of a Tier One Martial Artist, only they can receive an ordinary evaluation.
They will undergo half a month of military training at Eagle Nest Base and then become qualified members of the Star Realm Army.
Usually, only one out of a thousand martial artists can achieve an excellent evaluation.
Such individuals are often called elites.
Each elite warrior is a key combat power in their respective corps.
Not only will their training time be extended to three months, but they will also receive a disproportionate amount of resources.
After training, they are very likely to be selected into elite combat units.
Their survival rate and safety are far higher than other ordinary units.
As for outstanding, that’s self-explanatory.
Besides all kinds of beneficial treatments,
the most important thing is that new recruits with outstanding results can directly join the ace units.
In a fully manned regiment, several elite units might coexist.
But the ace unit, from beginning to end, is always singular!
Members of ace units are soldier kings, elites among elites, selected from thousands.
The equipment they use is the best and most advanced.
The resources and excellent treatment they receive far exceed ordinary people’s imagination.
Every ace unit is cherished by the corps commander.
Losing just one or two soldier kings would cause sleepless nights.
So if someone can achieve an outstanding evaluation in the enlistment assessment, it’s definitely a meteoric rise worthy of the Star Realm Army’s cost-no-object vigorous training!
"Since ancient times, ordinary rank-and-file soldiers are destined to be cannon fodder."
"If I get an excellent evaluation, wouldn’t I climb straight to the top of life?"
"I’ve heard the casualty rate for cannon fodder units is as high as 99%, and ordinary units also have about a 70% casualty rate, while elite units only have 50%."
"Doesn’t that mean a higher assessment rank equals several more chances of survival?"
After listening to the assessment rules, everyone was eager, itching to use every ounce of strength available.
"Outstanding?"
Lu Yuan pondered.
Having assumed a new identity now, he could completely seize the chance to infiltrate the Star Realm Army and gain more resources and techniques.
Although the military is cruel, it’s also fair.
As long as your battle merits and strength are great, you can obtain everything you desire!
For Lu Yuan, this is undoubtedly the most suitable place for growth.
Thinking of these,
he immediately made a decision to achieve the best possible results without revealing his identity!
Not long after,
under the arrangement of Celestial Shield Star’s artificial intelligence, everyone began heading inside the base for assessment.
The first item, the power test.
"The punching post in front of you is the power testing device."
"What you need to do is to use all your strength and desperately attack the punching post."
"Then the base’s intelligent light-brain will conduct a comprehensive scoring based on your realm and power."
"A final reminder, this is purely a power test; any superpower or combat technique is forbidden."
In a certain training hall within Eagle Nest Base,
a Star Realm Army warrior gave a brief explanation and immediately announced the start of the test.
"Let me try first."
A burly, roughly forty-year-old Tier Two Martial Artist confidently walked to a punching post.
He then took a deep breath, unleashed punches like a storm on the surface of the punching post.
The electronic screen atop the post rapidly flashed numerous numbers.
58,000 kg!
57,500 kg!
61,000 kg!
...
The numbers swiftly leapt, finally freezing at 62,000 kg.
Others around were moved by this sight.
This burly man’s single-arm swipe could unleash 60,000 kilograms of power.
And that was even without using any combat technique.
This performance was quite good even among Tier Two Martial Artists.
Yet the next second,
the electronic screen flickered, displaying an ordinary evaluation.
Upon seeing this score,
the originally confident burly man suddenly looked extremely upset, evidently unable to accept the fact.
In contrast, standing next to him, a young man around twenty, merely a Tier One Martial Artist with only about 20,000 kilograms of strength, easily received an excellent evaluation.
This enormous disparity immediately made his anger soar.
"Why!"
"He’s weaker than me, and his realm is inferior. Why can he get an excellent evaluation?"
The burly man questioned angrily.
"Watch your tone and attitude, or I can cancel your assessment qualification at any moment!"
The Star Realm Army warrior coldly warned, chilling the burly man back to calmness with the intense evil qi emanating from him.
"I’m sorry, I was impulsive, but I still don’t understand."
The burly man apologized and sincerely asked.
"Though his power is less than yours, at the Tier One Martial Artist level, he can unleash 20,000 kilograms of strength, and he is younger with more potential and greater malleability than you!"
The Star Realm Army warrior coldly responded.
Everyone finally realized the truth upon hearing this.
In this interstellar era where strength reigns supreme, capable of crushing stars with a flick,
the victor in warfare is always high-tier combat power.
Although in terms of strength, that young man was only a Tier One Martial Artist, vastly inferior to the middle-aged man in realm,
the young man was only twenty years old, with much higher potential and room for growth than the middle-aged man.
Moreover, the Star Realm Army is equipped with plenty of resources and a complete talent selection and cultivation system.
As long as the young man shows enough potential and talent,
with resources from the Star Realm Army, he could reach a Tier Two or even Tier Three Martial Artist level in just half a month’s time.
Therefore, in this assessment, age is also a crucial factor affecting the final evaluation!
Upon understanding this,
many middle-aged martial artists deflated like a punctured balloon, visibly losing spirit.
In contrast, the young people were all invigorated, as if seeing hope.
"I advise you not to be so pleased just yet. Given the intensity of this battle, even with talent, you might still fail to grow."
"What’s more, although they are older, their strength is undeniable."
"If they are willing to undergo genetic modification surgery, they may yet join the elite troops!"
The Star Realm Army warrior chuckled coldly, pouring cold water on all the young aspirants.
