Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer-Novel

Sam just left the matter of division to the remaining members but before that he had a few words to say.

"I won’t ask why you would pick me in this kind of situation, but I thank you for that. But one point I want to make is that you might have made a biggest mistake in your life, because you would be having a hard time because of your decision and that may even affect your advancement.

If that really happens, I would do you a favour in show of my gratitude after this whole fiasco is over. But until then, I am sorry to say that you have to face the consequences of the decision you made and live with it."

The group didn’t reply to his words and they decided to make the teams in a few minutes. Sam, Hawk and Drew are in one team while Jack, Philip and Kelly are in another team.

There are no particular reasons except that among the group only Philip and Sam knew how to conduct a business and Kelly is the other Artisan who can make some products for their shop.

Jack is mostly a person who can follow orders and is familiar with Philip which makes it easier for them.

As for Sam’s team, Hawk might be amiable but taking orders from Philp might be a bit too much for him as he lived all his life in superiority and Drew might feel the same.

Even though, it might make them look like being unreasonable, it is a fact that they might listen to orders of Sam because he can overwhelm them completely, but Philip although capable cannot do that for reasons unknown.

Anyway, Philip and Jack thought that this arrangement was better for them and it is being done like that.

They stood in two teams of three members.

After every other team sorted their things out, General gestured someone and that person came and started distributing some small tokens.

The tokens have numbers written on them. And for Sam’s two groups the numbers 20-1 and 20-2.

They are considered as the tenth team and in that twentieth team, Sam’s group of three has tokens with 20-1 and Philip’s group of three has 20-2.

After the distribution is completed General spoke once again.

"All teams’ first halves will serve in the military for the first 8 months and second halves will do the business.

Let me explain how this goes.

There will be two wars with our neighbouring empire in the whole test time. And first war will occur at the eighth month while the second one will be on the sixteenth month.

These two wars are only for your testing and the neighbouring empire is also undergoing the same test as you, so you would be going head on against them.

The same test is going all over the empire in every dukedom at the same time, so you better be prepared and put your heart into it, if you want to stand out.

For military batch rules, you will be sent to the military training camp which is being held in the military base of the Dukedom capital. You will be trained there and will be sent to the war in the eighth month, so your training will be there for seven months and for every fifteen days of these seven months, you will be allowed to leave the camp.

But you are only allowed to move with in the city and nearby woods that are under the Southern star city control.

The remaining rules on how your training goes will be explained in the base.

For the business part, you are allowed to move as much as you like and you can conduct business in all of the Dukedom’s territory.

Even though, it is called business at the end of the day all you have to do it earn money, but you have to provide the means you obtained and make sure that you didn’t do it in an illegal way.

Any businesses and assets you have previously don’t count. However, you can use them as investments.

For example, if you have a land asset and you sell it, that won’t count as your earnings, but you can use that money as an investment.

At the end evaluation, your returns and the investments will be compared and one with the points will be awarded based on the percentage of your profits.

Now, the batch that is going to military, you have five minutes to talk to your team and get ready."

After the speech, Sam didn’t say much he only talked to Philip for a few seconds and that is.

"Watt will be outside of the estate, you guys follow him, I bought a property you guys stay there with him.

As for business thing, try to start something, I think Watt has enough money. Just test the waters for the time being in the capital for the first fifteen days, but from what I can see things won’t be easy at all.

Try your best and take care, I will see you guys after fifteen days."

After the five minutes passed, all the candidates in the military batch are taken away. Sam looked around and didn’t find Nicholas, he seemed to be in the business batch.

Sam didn’t think much of it, so fifty students were taken in the carriages to the Military base of the Southern star city.

Even though, it is called the military base of the city, it is a not present in the city and is in the nearby woods.

When all fifty students were boarded down and entered the camp, they saw many squads and battalions training.

Sam noticed one thing, there is not much order in the camp or even in the squads.

Each squad has different types of cultivators, mages, warriors, warrior mages etc.

Even though, they see pretty united most of them are mainly focused on their individual strength training and very few are practicing team attacks.

On the way he saw a deserted zone with no people at all, that place had a small building made of stone and there is a small stage. He didn’t know its purpose but it has some weird atmosphere attached to it.

Soon, they were led to some barracks. There a middle-aged man is standing with his back straight as he looked at the candidates. Behind him, there are five men who are also standing straight.

When they arrived at the place, the middle-aged man in the lead called out.

"Stand in twenty files with each file having five people." When all the candidates stood in order, the middle-aged man continued.

"From today until the eight-month time is over, I am your chief instructor. The five men standing behind me are also the instructors who have absolute authority over your tasks, training and even punishment.

Generally, according to our empire’s military structure a squad will be consisting of seven members and a company consists of seven such squads led by a company commander who has to be flexible and capable enough to lead the whole company as well as merge with any squad in a battle.[The military structure is purely fictional and something that yours truly made up. So, don’t complain about me not having much military knowledge]

So, you all will form two companies and there would be two company commanders selected through procedures.

To further explanation, a battalion has at least ten companies in it and six battalions combine to become a Regiment.

In this base there are a total of five such regiments and another five regiments are stationed at various borders of the Dukedom. For every six months their duties will be exchanged.

These things don’t apply to you guys as your main task is to train for the war after eight months.

But it is essential to know these details.

As for this military structure, there are some exceptions which they are not valid for and one of them are the special squad our General Spark is training which is called the Thunder Wolf squad which has a total fifty members.

And as for the rules, you have a fixed resting time, eating time, training time which will be noted in the schedule you will be given for you by the instructors.

There is one common rule in the Military that is valid to all the regiments and that includes the Thunder Wolf squad as well as you guys. That is, anyone can challenge you for a duel and you cannot decline if the other person’s cultivation is not more than two levels higher than you. [Levels here means Novice Level 3 cannot reject a person at Novice Level 5]

In the duel anything other than killing and crippling the cultivation is allowed.

Some of you might think it is unfair to get beat up by the higher level, but this is the army and, in the war, there is no telling whether you will face the enemy at same level. So, suck it up and deal with it.

If you have any questions, ask me now."

One of the candidates who is the part of the 1-1 raised his hand and asked.

"Sir, May I know your name?"

"Why do you want to know my name?" The middle-aged man asked.

The candidate was taken aback for a second and said meekly.

"Curiosity?" He was uncertain himself; he just asked the name casually.

’I don’t want to tell my name just because you are curious. My name isn’t that cheap.

If you just want to know about me, I will give you guys some details. I am the Deputy general of the Southern star military, you can call me Deputy general or instructor.

I am an Early stage Nascent realm Warrior.

But if you really want to know my name so much, there are two choices.

First one, you can gain enough merits so that you would be worthy of knowing my name, or you the second one, climb the ranks to get access to the records of the Military department so that you can read my name yourself.

Until then you can forget about knowing it.

In the whole Dukedom, there are less than ten people who know my name." He spoke and walked away.
