Peerless Taoist

This news spread throughout the Spiritual State, but it didn't cause much of a stir.    

Many people with discerning eyes could tell that the evil cultivators outside must have reached a certain level of power to be able to keep the Spirit State Prefecture under control.    

After all, if it was an ordinary rebellion, based on the temperament of the Imperial Court, they would have left the city long ago to suppress it.    

When the news was released, there were very few people who came to register. Most of them were rogue cultivators who were in dire straits.    

These rogue cultivators were either old or had poor aptitude, so there were no sects outside taking them in. The requirements for entering the Great Yu Army were usually very high. It was extremely difficult for them to enter the army even if they wanted to.    

Fortunately, once the recruitment order was issued, in terms of cultivation level and aptitude, these rogue cultivators were able to join the army, which was a rare opportunity for them.    

On the first day, three thousand more soldiers were added to the army in the entire Lingzhou Prefecture.    

Luo Ming told Lu Yu that the overall strength of these three thousand people was not high, and they had not gone through systematic training. Once they started the war, they would very likely escape in all directions, and it would be difficult for them to take on any big responsibilities.    

Lu Yu said, "Let those people form a battalion and patrol the city to maintain order. The people who will be recruited will be in charge of logistics and transportation, and all the elite troops stationed there will be transferred to the city wall!"    

He had no other choice.    

The game that the Crown Prince arranged for him was a dead end!    

The so-called dead end was not giving Lu Yu any way to save himself. He had to make Lu Yu die without a burial ground.    

The court examination would last for a full year.    

However, it had only been three days and Lu Yu was already under the pressure of death.    

Death in the Yellow Millet Dream would not affect Lu Yu at all. It was like waking up from a nightmare. At most, he could feel his heart palpitating.    

But at that time, Lu Yu would become the first person in the court examination to fail. No matter what achievements he had in the future, it would become a stain on his life, and it might even affect his Dao heart.    

Although the recruitment of these people was difficult, it could relieve the pressure on the defending troops.    

"Some of the recruits have impure motives. I'm worried that these people will cause some trouble in the city." Qin Yu also voiced her worries.    

In order to truly join Great Yu's army, the recruits would need at least half a year of training, grasp the basic coordination, and completely integrate into Great Yu's army.    

Cultivators in the medieval period paid particular attention to freedom and unconstrained behavior. But now, the era had changed. Those cultivators who were free and unfettered were either experts at the peak or unaffiliated people with no future.    

Half a year was enough to tie the hearts of all the cultivators together with the Great Yu Army.    

Lu Yu thought for a moment and said, "We can't care about that now. We don't need people to doubt us. You can continue to recruit people, but you can't assign all of them to one place. Also, send a few trusted subordinates to keep an eye on these people's movements at all times. Some important places still need our trusted aides to protect them."    

Qin Yu understood what Lu Yu meant and immediately went to do it.    

Five days had passed, but there were still no movements from the rebels outside.    

Taking advantage of these five days, Lu Yu had recruited over ten thousand people. The requirement for recruiting soldiers had also been lowered from the stage of exit to the stage of magic power.    

These people definitely could not go and defend the city, but to let them patrol the city and maintain order was more than enough.    

In Spirit Province City, patrolling soldiers could be seen everywhere.    

Even during the day, the sounds of military boots stomping on the ground echoed throughout the streets.
