C501 Five Powerful People

"General, you must be joking. I, Niu Dazhuang, am not the best in the Third Barracks. Even before you came, General, I wasn't the number one expert. Look at the man on the right who hit the sandbag. He is the number one expert in our Third Barracks, and that is not all. Even if the two of us combined, we still wouldn't be a match for him. "1

When Lin Rann heard Niu Dazhuang's words, he was a bit surprised. He originally thought that Niu Dazhuang's strength was the number one in this barrack. He didn't expect that there was someone stronger than Niu Dazhuang. He followed Niu Dazhuang's finger and looked over. He looked at the man who was hitting the sandbag on the right.

Lin Rann could roughly tell from the aura that this man was emitting. He was at least at the Perfect Acquired Stage, and was only a step away from the Innate Stage. It seemed like the Third Barracks really wasn't that simple. One should know that those who didn't accept Lin Rann just now weren't as simple as him. Why would this man treat someone like Lin Rann, who had just passed the Martial Competition? The general didn't have any objections.

It had to be known that every soldier in the army had a bad temper, like those who were not as strong as him. They would usually not be convinced. In the army, strength was the king. It seemed like this guy must have some kind of secret hidden in the Third Barracks, or else he would be at the peak of the Acquired Stage. Even in the Great Zhou Dynasty, he would be treated as a distinguished guest by some families.

After that, Niu Dazhuang told Lin Rann that there were many people who were stronger than him in the Third Barracks. There were almost four people on the training ground. Lin Rann followed Niu Dazhuang and observed. The four people who were stronger than him found that they all had a common characteristic. They were all at the perfect Acquired Stage, and had broken through to the Innate Stage. They were only one step away from breaking through to the ___.

This made Lin Rann feel a little strange. If it was only one person who had reached the Great Circle of the Acquired Stage... That was reasonable, but there were nearly five or six men who had such a cultivation base. Why didn't they break through to the Innate Stage? One should know that in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Innate Stage and Acquired Stage were treated differently in the eyes of Innate Stage warriors. Just an ant-like character.

Therefore, some people would rather be weak Innate Stage than stay in Acquired Stage for too long to be an Acquired Stage warrior. Sometimes, they would rather sacrifice a portion of their strength to break through to the Innate Stage. It seemed like these guys were hiding some secrets. Otherwise, how could all of them be at the perfect Acquired Stage?

Not long after that, Lin Rann asked Niu Dazhuang to call these people to him. Lin Rann wanted to test these people, but after a while, he saw Niu Dazhuang bringing five people to Lin Rann.

"We pay our respects to the general."

After they arrived, they saw an older man greeting Lin Rann. Lin Rann could clearly see that the older man was the leader of the five men. It seemed like the five of them knew each other, but why were they all at the perfect Acquired Stage?

"No need to exert too much strength. All of you have worked hard. I can see that all of you have some unique skills. We are only a step away from the Innate Stage, so why should we stop at the peak of the Houtian realm? Could it be that there's something difficult to say? Just let me know if there is anything you need me to do. I will do everything I can to do it."

The five of them heard Lin Rann's words and didn't make any other sound. Obviously, they had already prepared for this matter to be discovered by others.

"General, there are many cases. If we have a way to break through to the Innate Stage... We would have broken through a long time ago. How could we wait for General to know about this? The five of us are good friends in the village. Back then, we found a cultivation technique on the back mountain. After that, we entered the army of Great Zhou Dynasty and trained hard for the past few years. We did it for the sake of getting stronger. "

"Oh, if that's the case, then you all must break through to the Innate Stage as soon as possible. You should know that the gap between the Innate Stage and Acquired Stage is like a dividing line. Once you enter the Xiantian realm, you are no longer an ant."

After hearing Lin Rann's words, the leader of the group had an ugly expression on his face. He laughed and cried. After that, the few of them went to Sun Qian's side and started whispering to each other. It seemed like there was indeed a secret behind this. However, they were now deciding whether to tell Lin Rann or not.

Soon, as if they had discussed it, the older soldier came to Lin Rann and knelt down on one knee.

"My party doesn't want to hide it. General Lin might as well tell you about this. It's not that we don't want to break through to the Innate Stage, but we don't have the ability to do so, General. Although we are all at the perfect Acquired Stage, it is much harder for us to break through to the Innate Stage than other warriors. "

After hearing what this man said, Lin Rann was a little surprised. He had heard that the path to break through to the Innate Stage was very difficult. The journey was full of twists and turns. Why was there someone who had cultivated to the Houtian realm, and was only a step away from the perfect realm? He was able to break through to the Innate Stage, and he even said that breaking through was even more difficult than breaking through to the next realm.

According to Lin Rann's observation, these people were only one step away from reaching the Innate Stage. As long as they took this step, they would be able to break through to the Innate Stage. Could it be that they didn't notice it? But soon, Lin Rann threw this idea to the back of his mind. Even if he didn't understand what they were doing in the army... Of course, he could ask the Great Zhou Dynasty for help. They would certainly hope to have more Innate Stage warriors in their army. Usually, they would try their best to help when they had such a problem.

Seeing Lin Rann's puzzled expression, these few soldiers also understood what Lin Rann was thinking. After all, even if it was someone else, they wouldn't believe what they said. Then, they slowly told Lin Rann what had happened to them.

It turned out that these people belonged to a poor village in the Great Swamp Dynasty. There were no secret manuals or cultivation techniques in the three villages. Therefore, the entire village was filled with ordinary people. Later, these five people ran into the back mountain because of their mischievous behavior. After that, they got the cultivation technique from a dilapidated temple in the back mountain.

At first, after the five people got cultivation techniques, they were all very confident. They wanted to compare themselves with their companions, so they also focused on training and becoming the strongest among their peers.

However, the cultivation technique hidden in this temple was truly extraordinary. In just four years, the five of them had broken through to the perfect Acquired Stage. However, for some reason, their cultivation had started to stagnate ever since. No matter what method they used, they wouldn't be able to break through to the Innate Stage.
