There are also rules regarding the number of people to be assembled. For example, if there are 100 World Lords, soldiers will be transported to the outer battlefield at once.

If there aren't enough people? Then you'll just have to wait!

The wait didn't last long.

About half a day later, the number of realm lords gathered in the square reached the quota of 100.

"Cosmic-level, all of you assemble here!"

"Domain Lords, assemble here!"

"All Realm Lord level experts, come this way!"

The passage gates opened, and tens of thousands of lone soldiers were quickly categorized.

Lu Ming also got up and gathered with the other realm lords.

"Fellow Realm Lords and Warriors, you are about to embark on the most glorious yet most brutal battlefield beyond the realm."

An immortal deity, exuding a chilling aura and seemingly cast in metal, spoke solemnly.

"But the army has its own rules, and it's not as free as you were when you were traveling alone!"

Lu Ming and over a hundred other realm lords listened attentively.

"Before we set off!"

“You need to undergo a traditional authorization ceremony.”

"The immortal deity said solemnly."

"Permission granting ceremony?"

"What do you mean?"

"What?"

Many of these realm lords were whispering amongst themselves, clearly indicating that the vast majority of these lone travelers knew nothing about the details of participating in the 'extraterritorial battlefield'.

Lu Ming did know a little about it.

The immortal deity clearly knew this and continued, "Granting authority means determining your exact position in the army. The army is a place with a clear hierarchy, and subordinates must obey their superiors... Therefore, it is necessary to confirm your status and authority in the army, and how is this confirmed? It is through your strength."

“Each of you realm lords must have undergone numerous training sessions in the virtual universe network. The virtual universe network will assign a rating to your strength based on your performance. This rating is very important in determining your status when you enter the army.”

"The rating is divided into three levels: 'Ordinary World Lord Warrior,' 'Elite World Lord Warrior,' and 'World Lord General.'"

"Most realm lords are ordinary realm lord warriors."

"Being recognized by the fundamental laws, one can barely be considered an elite realm lord warrior."

"Among hundreds of elite Realm Lord warriors, one can typically become a Realm Lord General!"

The Path of Immortal Gods.

"I believe that each of you has displayed your strongest abilities in the virtual universe. If any of you have not yet done so and are worried that the authorization ceremony will be unfair, then you can enter the virtual universe network now and unleash your full power. The authorization process will begin shortly."

……

The immortal deity remained silent for ten seconds, then spoke: "Everything should be fine now. Come over one by one and receive the authorization."

One hundred realm lords walked towards the immortal god in turn. A blue light shot out from the screen on the immortal god's arm guard, enveloping the approaching realm lords.

"Elite Realm Master Warrior!"

"Ordinary realm lord warrior!"

"Elite Realm Master Warrior!"

"Elite Realm Master Warrior!"

The screen on the immortal god's arm guard automatically emitted a series of sounds, and at the same time, every realm lord who had received the authorization also received a message from the virtual universe system.

The higher the authority, the different one's status in the military.

Lu Ming watched this scene and pondered to himself: "There are so many elite realm lord warriors. Logically speaking... the majority of realm lords are 'ordinary realm lord warriors'. Oh, that's right. Those who dare to come alone specifically to participate in the extraterritorial battlefield must be confident in themselves. Hmm, most of them have been recognized by the fundamental laws."

He was quite confident in his strength, having cultivated diligently for a thousand years since reaching the ninth level of the Domain Lord.

Is it possible to reach the level of a World Lord Warrior?

The realm lords lined up, one by one receiving the authorization, and soon it was Lu Ming's turn.

A blue light enveloped everything.

"World Lord Warrior!"

A clear notification sound rang out.

Many realm lords around looked at Lu Ming, their gazes filled with scrutiny and a hint of respect.

The Realm Lord Warriors are definitely among the best in this group.

Lu Ming nodded in agreement.

As expected, he reached the level of a World Lord Warrior.

Ultimately, among the 100 Realm Lords, including Lu Ming, there were 3 Realm Lord Warriors, 65 Elite Realm Lord Warriors, and 33 Ordinary Realm Lord Warriors.

After all the permissions were granted, the immortal god's voice rose: "Follow me, all of you! We will teleport you all to the outer battlefield shortly! This inter-racial war involves a great many warriors, so there are eleven battlefields in total, all of which are outside our human territory. That's why they are called the outer battlefields. You are going to the ninth battlefield!"

"The Ninth Battlefield?"

Immediately, various voices of discussion arose.

Led by the immortal deity, the group experienced a brief shift in time and space via teleportation through the divine kingdom.

When his vision cleared, Lu Ming found himself in a huge teleportation hall filled with a chilling atmosphere.

"Haha, the new recruits have arrived!"

"Get to work! New recruits have arrived!"

Shouts were heard.

A dozen soldiers in standard battle armor quickly approached, led by an immortal deity with white hair and red armor who smiled, his eyes seemingly crackling with electricity: "New recruits, welcome to the '038' barracks base of the Ninth Battlefield. All World Lords will follow him, all Domain Lords will follow this one, and all Universe-level beings will follow this young lady."

The red-armored immortal deity swiftly appointed three leaders.

The universe level, domain lords, and world lords are along three different passages.

"Fellow Realm Lords, the Realm Lord Camp is just ahead."

The leader spoke.

moment.

They arrived at an elegantly decorated hall with tens of millions of seats. Judging from Lu Ming's eyesight, there were at least hundreds of thousands of Realm Lords here.

My true career on the battlefield beyond the borders is about to begin!

Chapter 28 Flame Blade

As soon as Lu Ming and the other hundred new Realm Lords entered the huge hall of the Realm Lord camp, they were surrounded by a tidal wave of recruiters from various teams.

"The newcomer has arrived!"

"Are there any realm lord generals in this batch?"

"Where is the Realm Lord War General?!"

Various voices rose and fell, causing many new realm masters to frown.

Upon seeing this, the leader announced loudly: "Among this batch of new recruits are three Realm Lord War Generals!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the intelligent quantum computers of all recruiters immediately received the specific information.

Immediately, a lot of eyes focused on Lu Ming and the other two.

Veterans who have fought on the battlefields beyond the realm for many years know that, apart from the realm lord generals, the mortality rate of the new recruits is terrifyingly high.

Soon, Lu Ming was surrounded by people.

"Brother Yanfeng, come join our 'Fierce Tiger Squad'! We have three Immortals!"

"Come join our 'Spark Team,' we have the most complete lineup!"

Lu Ming's gaze swept over the enthusiastic recruiters, finally settling on a woman with a captivating aura and a soft white fox tail behind her.

Three team members stood behind her, each exuding an extraordinary aura.

"I am Tsukihime, the captain of the 'Phantom Fox Squad'."

The woman with the fox tail smiled sweetly.

"Our team has just undergone restructuring and needs fresh blood."

After a moment's thought, Lu Ming realized that it didn't matter which team he joined.

He'll become a free man once he earns enough military merits, so let's choose this squad.

No other reason.

Eye candy.

"Okay, I'll join."

A hint of smugness flashed in Yueji's eyes: "Come with me."

A moment later, everyone sat down at a table in a corner of the camp.

A blue-haired youth holding a snow-white little beast whistled: "Captain's amazing! Among this batch of new recruits, there are three World Lord War Generals, and you managed to snag one!"

The little beast in his arms also let out a cry in response.

Yue Ji rolled her eyes at the young man and said to Lu Ming with a smile, "Don't mind him, this is the 'Beast King,' he just likes to speak without thinking."

A tall man in dark red armor said in a deep voice, "Blood Blade, a Realm Lord General, specializes in close combat."

His face was covered with mysterious patterns, which glowed slightly when he spoke.

The last woman, with long, pointed ears and delicate features, said softly, "Wind Spirit, the controller."

Yueji introduced Lu Ming: "Our team originally had six people, but last month we encountered an elite alien team in a secret realm and lost two teammates."

Her tone was calm, but a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes.
