The title of War God was given by players, symbolizing supreme honor.
Lei Su, known as the War God, was the first to choose the swordsman class and held the top spot on the Berserk Swordsman ranking list for three consecutive years, never falling out of the top three. At that time, Shui Se Yantou was far inferior. In this life, Shui Se Yantou might be able to rival the War God Lei Su.
In his previous life, Lei Su was always a legendary figure. The video that left the deepest impression on Nie Yan was from the battle at Hilton Fortress, where War God Lei Su single-handedly took on the level 260 boss, the Skeleton King. At that time, he obtained the Berserker artifact—the twin War God Kelo Swords—and was clad in a full set of War God equipment, rendering him unbelievably and unreasonably powerful.
Nie Yan assassinated Cao Xu at the height of Lei Su’s glory. Back then, almost no one across the entire Faith could rival Lei Su, except for a few individuals.
Nie Yan frowned slightly at the name Lei Su. He had heard Xu Yan mention it before; Lei Su was some kind of martial arts champion from the First Military Academy, definitely very impressive. At that time, Nie Yan hadn’t paid much attention when Xu Yan spoke of Lei Su, and he certainly hadn’t imagined that the Lei Su from the First Military Academy and the Lei Su in Faith were one and the same.
What Nie Yan didn’t know was that, to the people of the First Military Academy, Lei Su was already a godlike figure. The title of War God had originated from the First Military Academy.
Nie Yan stared downward as Lei Su approached Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others. Nobody could guess what he wanted.
Seeing Lei Su approach, Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others all stood up. His presence signaled ill intent. People like Lei Su rarely appeared, and when they did, it was usually to confront someone directly. They couldn’t help but question his intentions.
“Lei Su, what brings you here today to join our gathering?” Shihli Huasha asked. She had to admit that facing Lei Su made her feel some pressure, but as an elite member of Bull Player Tribe, she still had a bit of confidence and wouldn’t lose her composure completely.
Budead stood slightly behind and to the left of Shihli Huasha. Benz Demonic and Desire Youth, seated farther away and chatting, noticed the situation and turned their attention toward the group.
Sensing the hostility from the Bull Player Tribe players, Lei Su smiled and said, “Where is your leader Nieyan? Ask him to come out. I need to see him.”
“Nieyan?” Budead looked puzzled.
“If you’re looking for Nieyan, you can go to Bull Player Tribe’s office in Carol City,” Shihli Huasha replied. She was also confused. Why would Lei Su ask about Nieyan here? Wouldn’t going to the office be easier?
“You don’t know that the notorious thief Nie Yan entered the First Military Academy?” Lei Su asked in surprise.
“What?” Budead looked incredulous.
Benz Demonic and Desire Youth, who were behind, stood up abruptly and asked, “Sister Huasha, did the boss really enter the First Military Academy? Why didn’t we know about this?”
Lei Su suddenly understood and thought to himself that the rogue Nie Yan was indeed very low-key.
“If you don’t know where he is, forget it. When I meet him another day, tell him I want to join his guild and ask if he’ll accept me,” Lei Su smiled.
Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others were momentarily stunned. Lei Su wanted to join Bull Player Tribe? With his strength, he was definitely qualified. But they weren’t sure how serious Lei Su was.
“We’ll pass the message to the boss,” Budead replied. None of them dared to easily refuse or agree to Lei Su’s request.
“Alright,” Lei Su smiled. “Then I’ll be going now.”
With that, Lei Su turned and walked away from Shihli Huasha, Budead, and the others.
Shihli Huasha, Budead, and the others looked puzzled. Did Lei Su come here just to say that?
“Sister Huasha, Lei Su wants to join Bull Player Tribe. Do you think he’s serious?” Budead asked.
“He probably isn’t lying. Lei Su always keeps his word. With his status, he has no need to make up such stories,” Shihli Huasha replied. She had some understanding of Lei Su.
“So does that mean Lei Su will join us? Bull Player Tribe will gain another powerhouse?” Budead asked excitedly.
“Don’t get too excited yet. I think this matter isn’t that simple. Lei Su wouldn’t join Bull Player Tribe so easily,” Shihli Huasha thoughtfully replied. Lei Su had never joined any guild before and hadn’t paid much attention to Bull Player Tribe. Suddenly deciding to join was suspicious.
“Sister Huasha, did Lei Su just say the boss entered the First Military Academy? Is that true?” Benz Demonic asked.
Benz Demonic and Desire Youth approached from behind. They didn’t care much about whether Lei Su would join Bull Player Tribe, as they didn’t know much about him or his strength. They were only interested in whether Nieyan had entered the First Military Academy.
“I’m not sure either, but what Lei Su said should be true. Nieyan hasn’t contacted us proactively, probably wanting to keep a low profile. If people from the First Military Academy discovered that the notorious thief Nieyan was there, he’d certainly have no peace,” Shihli Huasha replied. Putting herself in Nieyan’s position, she thought she would have done the same.
The crowd didn’t know what Lei Su had discussed with Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others, and began speculating among themselves.
“Could the War God Lei Su be planning to target Blue Bell?”
“If the War God Lei Su decides to act, Blue Bell will definitely have a hard time. I’m sure the power behind the War God Lei Su is absolutely shocking.”
“Blue Bell isn’t weak either, with Bull Player Tribe’s backing. She probably won’t lose.”
They speculated among themselves, unaware that Lei Su had approached Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others not to provoke conflict but to join Bull Player Tribe. They wouldn’t know how shocked they’d be if they found out—probably enough to shake the entire First Military Academy.
Except for Nie Yan and Xie Yao, all other Bull Player Tribe members had already registered with Blue Bell. Shihli Huasha, Budead, and others were preparing to organize a dungeon raid to get everyone familiar with each other and build camaraderie.
Budead looked toward the lively Student Union side and said, “Divine Slayer Sword must be thrilled this time, having recruited at least a thousand people at the First Military Academy. If the boss had loosened the requirements for joining the guild, these people would definitely join Bull Player Tribe instead of Divine Slayer Sword.”
“I agree with Nieyan on this point,” Shihli Huasha smiled. “The value of a guild lies in the quality rather than the quantity of its members. A veteran member loyal to the guild is definitely more valuable than ten new members with ulterior motives. Divine Slayer Sword recruited so many people—how many of them are just there for the benefits, and how many are willing to fight for the guild during guild wars?” Therefore, there was no need to envy Divine Slayer Sword.
