Starting from the Greyhound, seventy-two changes.

Third-rank Major General Long Yuan?

Chen Ku was slightly stunned in his incarnation consciousness.

Isn’t the general a fourth-rank official?
How could he be a third-rank major general?
But he always remembered the honor system of the Daji Dynasty: the ninth rank was Wusheng, the eighth rank was Wuxiucai, the seventh rank was Wujuren, the sixth rank was Wuzongshi, the fifth rank was Wujinshi, the fourth rank was Wujiangjun, the third rank was Wuhou, the second rank was Wuwang, and the first rank was Wuzhuguo.

The highest rank for a general is the third grade, and the rank above that is marquis.

But see.

After Prince Yang Hao announced the imperial edict, even the other people in the Shenwu Mountain Hall, such as Zu Dengfeng, Ying Yunqian and other elders, looked at the imperial edict in Prince Yang Hao's hand with shock.

"Major General Long Yuan, this is not the rank of general in our dynasty's military rank. Actually..."

Zu Dengfeng and Ying Yunqian immediately looked at each other, unable to hide the emotions in their eyes:

"A new military rank was created specifically for the top scorer in the Shenwu Examination?"

At the same time, they all thought of the fact that more than a hundred years ago, Emperor Taizu had also created the title of Marquis of "Marquis of Guanjun" in addition to the ancestral system and previous system.

Guanjun Hou means he is the most meritorious among all the armies and has the highest position among all the princes.

With this, Yang Shou, the champion marquis of that year, became the only unparalleled young champion marquis in the history of the founding of the Daji Dynasty.

As a result, several years later, another young man was awarded a "military rank" specially established by His Majesty the Emperor.

Major General Long Yuan!

As the name suggests, the name of Longyuan, one of the Thirteen Provinces of the Daji Period, was added in it, which shows the value of this "Major General Longyuan".

I'm afraid this means that in the future this major general will directly take over as the Governor of Longyuan and become a lord of Longyuan?
Of course, these were all thoughts that flashed through their minds.

At the same time, I was also thinking about one thing.

Was this Major General Long Yuan specially prepared by Your Majesty for the first place winner of the first term of Shenwu Academy, or was he specially prepared for Chen Ku?

I thought about it for a long time.

I think the latter is more likely!!

After all, if it was just an ordinary first-term champion of Shenwu Mountain, even if it was the third most outstanding person in Longyuan like Xue Baliu, His Majesty the Emperor would not have awarded him such a high military rank without any meritorious service.

A third-rank general is a rank that is almost equivalent to a marquis, but his title is not yet at that level. However, it is already equivalent to the three words "Marquis of Champion", which is half a level weaker.

However, the Right Vanguard Army is a powerful military position that can lead an army of ten thousand elite vanguard troops.

"Chen Ku, why don't you accept the order?"

The clone immediately stepped forward to receive the order and said:
"I, Chen Ku, have received your order and am ashamed to accept your grace. I will fight the enemy on the battlefield and recover the lost territory to live up to your expectations!"

Prince Yang Hao looked at the boy with a delicate face with complicated eyes, because the boy was too young. According to the archives of Shenwu Mountain, the boy would be nineteen years old in about three or four months, and now he was only about eighteen years old.

At such an age, he is actually valued so much by his father. Although it is wartime, he still feels a little jealous.

But his thoughts did not show on his face. He looked at Chen Ku and said calmly:

"Your Majesty has issued an edict to confer the title upon you. Chen Ku, you have been nurtured by the state in Shenwu Mountain for a year and have finally graduated successfully. The war on the front line is getting intense right now. You have three days to go through the martial arts world passage and head to Guzi Pass to join Governor Li and lead the right-wing vanguard army. You are not allowed to delay."

The clone nodded in agreement.

Prince Yang Hao looked at the others and said:
"I have finished reading the imperial edict. As we have some important military matters to attend to, I will not stay in Shenwu Mountain for long. The rest of the graduating students will be appointed according to another imperial edict and will also be given three days to go to their respective cities to take up their posts. I hope you can put what you have learned to good use on the battlefield, serve the country, and protect our land!"

"Farewell to His Royal Highness the Eighth Prince!" All the masters and instructors of Shenwu Mountain bowed and watched Yang Hao step into the passage of the martial arts world.

Wait until Yang Hao leaves.

In front of the main hall, he continued to preside over the enthronement of other people.

Xue Baliu was granted the title of "Fourth Rank Jiangzhou Garrison General" and went to the front line of Jiangzhou to defend the city.

Others, such as Xu Fanfeng among the Six Sons of Yandu, were given positions such as deputy general, lieutenant general, and guerrilla.

"Your Highness, I have given you three days. Time is tight, so you will only have one or two days to rest at most. On the third day, you must go to your respective posts in the city."

Zu Dengfeng looked at the students below with deep emotion and said:

"In the past year, as the first batch of students of Shenwu Mountain, you should set an example. When you are on the battlefield, you must show the demeanor of those who have walked out of Shenwu Mountain. I hope you can set a good example for the second and third batches of students who will come after you, win tough battles one after another, and defend our land!"

"It is our duty to serve our country!"

All the students cheered.

Finally, Zu Dengfeng announced: "The students who were injured and sacrificed in the attack by Beiyuan Xiaoli and others a few days ago will also be compensated. The injured students will take additional exams after their injuries recover. It won't be long before you can see them on the battlefield." Finally, Ying Yunqian bowed to all the students:

"The front line depends on you."

They will continue to stay in Shenwu Mountain to train the second and third batches of students for Daji.

The final exam is over.

There are three days left.

Xu Fanfeng and the others came to Chen Ku and asked, "Brother Chen, we are going to several cities on the Longjiang front, and you are going to the governor's tent. If there is no major battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet on the battlefield. So, before we part, let's have a good drink."

Chen Ku also nodded seriously and asked, "How is Brother Xiao's injury? Let him come with us."

"Big brother's injuries are serious, but he said long ago that he would send us off personally." Xu Fanfeng didn't say much.

After an hour or two.

Many students on Shenwu Mountain began to go down the mountain one after another. Some sent letters to their families and teachers, while others made appointments to go to restaurants for farewell banquets.

But everyone was shrouded in the same reluctance to leave their fellow disciples, as well as the iron-blooded determination to step onto the battlefields of the two countries.

In every restaurant in Yandu City, in the end, all of it turned into wine spilled from the collision of cups.

Chen Ku saw Xiao Tianzuo in the restaurant, his face changed slightly, and he asked, "Is the injury serious?"

Xiao Tianzuo's face was pale. He waved his hand at Chen Ku and said, "It's okay. I was hit by Xiao Li and most of my meridians were burned by his fire. With the magical medicine at home and the treatment of the genius doctor in the Martial Temple, I will be able to recover in a few months."

Chen Ku said nothing, but walked up to Xiao Tianzuo and held his arm with a serious expression.

I immediately thought:
"Hang up Xiao Li's divine fire clone's evil spirit, cast 'Change Form from Heart', I want his 'Six Flavors True Fire'"

[Divine Fire Clone Transformation: Change of Shape]

[The owner of the picture used the magical power of changing form with the mind]

[Specified Transfiguration Part: Six Flames True Fire]

The next moment, Xiao Tianzuo only felt a domineering suction force coming from Chen Ku's palm, and the fire in his body that could not be extinguished was actually all absorbed by Chen Ku.

"This..." Xiao Tianzuo looked at his body in shock. There were only damaged meridians left, and there was no longer that troublesome flame to continue its evil deeds: "The fire injury has disappeared."

"Some tricks I learned from the Law-Extermination Building." Chen Ku said apologetically, "I'm sorry that Brother Xiao has suffered."

After he killed Xiao Li's clone, he was ordered to continue to take the exam and had no time to help Xiao Tianzuo solve the problem. Now this help is considered belated.

“Hahaha… What suffering? With your skills, I’m afraid I’ll be able to recover in another seven or eight days. Then, I can continue with the exam and then come to the battlefield to find you!” Xiao Tianzuo said excitedly: “I was a little sad today, but now I’m not sad at all. We’ll see each other in the army soon!”

"Then see you in the army!" Chen Ku raised his glass.

Xu Fanfeng and the others raised their glasses at the same time and said in unison: "Let's go kill the Qigong practitioner together!"

After a banquet.

The next day, Chen Ku called out the two masters from the Xia Wang Realm and brought them to the Guanyin Temple to meet Master Tianhai.

He also told them about the matters concerning Mount Putuo and Huangjue Gate respectively.

"My three masters, I will be heading to Guziguan to serve under Governor Li tomorrow. You just need to wait for my news in Yandu City. It won't be long before I can find an excellent hilltop for our sect to use as its headquarters." Chen Ku bowed to the three of them and said goodbye.

“Don’t worry, we old guys will not let a junior take on all the tasks of rebuilding Huangjue Sect and Mount Putuo. Although your brother and I are one realm lower than you and Old Monk Tianhai, with the fortune nurtured by the stone man, our roots and aptitudes are now very different, and our cultivation speed will be faster. We will also start looking for a new sect.” Shan Lingguan was very familiar with Old Monk Tianhai. After all, it was he who instructed Chen Kulai to curry favor with the old monk.

Chen Ku stayed with the three old men for another day.

Day three.

A large number of young people and teenagers of various kinds have gathered at the foot of Shenwu Mountain.

They are the second batch of students being screened by Shenwu Mountain.

Suddenly, the crowd of young men shouted to the old students who were stepping into the martial arts world transmission channel on the mountain:

"Senior brothers and sisters, please go ahead. We will be there next year!"

The resounding voices of the young men made Chen Ku look back down the mountain, where he saw many young men younger than him.

Then, he turned around and stepped into the transmission channel leading to 'Guzi Pass' in the martial arts world. (End of this chapter)
