Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 447 Outside the battlefield of Xuyang City, strong men from both the immortals and Buddhas have arrived!
Who is Zhang Juzheng waiting for?

In the imperial palace, everyone looked at the figure in the light curtain who was holding the hilt of the sword without moving at all.

Both Duke of Qi Jia Zheng and Duke of Cheng Lu Jun had frowns on their faces and remained silent.

There are only a few people on Qingtian Island who are worth Zhang Yuan's waiting.

But they didn't speak at this time.

After all, Your Majesty doesn't really want an answer.

Sure enough, seeing that no one spoke, Emperor Yuankang showed a hint of pride on his face.

"The battle of Xuyang City may seem like a fight between Confucianism and the Demonic Path, but it involves more than just the Demonic Path and Confucianism."

The emperor's voice rang out.

Not just the magic and Confucianism?

That is to say, the immortal and Buddhist forces are also involved?

Are Zhang Juzheng and others powerful figures from both the immortal and Buddha sides?
"Beyond Xuyang City, we need to take a longer-term view." As if seeing through everyone's thoughts, the emperor spoke again, "Qingtianzhou's affairs are never just Qingtianzhou's affairs."

This time, Emperor Yuankang's expression was much more solemn.

It's not just about Qingtianzhou.

In the hall, everyone's expressions became more solemn.

Everyone looked at the light screen, with a gleam in their eyes.

What's happening outside Qingtianzhou?

"boom--"

On the top of the city wall, Meng Shuyao's attack was blocked by Elder Mingu, and golden light exploded.

Blood and golden light were flowing around the two men, and they did not retreat even a single step.

At this time, Meng Shuyao displayed the peak power of the dragon and elephant, and was able to fight against the great master of Dongxuan, the supreme elder of the Netherworld Demon Sect, Minggu.

Unconsciously, everyone subconsciously looked at Zhang Yuan who was standing motionless under the city.

Meng Shuyao is so strong, yet she is...

Zhang Juzheng's strength is indeed unfathomable.

"Woo..."

The sea of ​​blood in Xuyang City is shaking.

In the city, as the army charged in, the Demon Sect's formations in various places were broken, and the power of the Sea of ​​Blood Formation was rapidly weakening.

Without sufficient support from the Blood Sea Formation, the troops inside and outside the city were instantly defeated.

The Demon Sect's army was rapidly defeated.

"What is Zhang Juzheng waiting for?"

On the parade grounds of the Northern Great Wall, a young man in black armor stood up.

There was a hint of excitement on his face and he clenched his fists.

"My soldiers are fighting bloody battles, and those Confucian and Taoist practitioners on Qingtian Continent are suffering casualties every moment. In such a situation, a strong man like Zhang Juzheng can easily determine the outcome."

The young man had a certain degree of fortitude. He took a deep breath and stared at Zhang Yuan on the screen.

"As a powerful being, do you really treat low-level practitioners like ants?"

In the eyes of the strong, those below the Grandmaster are all ants.

The weak should have this kind of awareness.

Everyone on the training ground understood this principle.

In fact, the vast majority of people on the training ground follow and believe in this principle.

Because of their cultivation potential and status, they have a sense of superiority and do not take lower-level practitioners seriously.

But when the young man in black armor said this, everyone looked at Zhang Juzheng again, with a little more gleam in their eyes.

Even if everything was true, Zhang Juzheng's contempt for the lives of low-level practitioners and his cold-blooded appearance still made many people feel dissatisfied.

On the stage, Zhao Yu frowned slightly.

Of course she had to protect Zhang Yuan's reputation.

Looking at the golden light curtain, Zhao Yu turned to look at Sun Qi and Xichang Hou behind him.

"My Lords, those who influence the course of battle are often outside the battlefield."

"I wonder if it's possible to take in a comprehensive view of the entire area, allowing us to truly see the full scope of this battle?"

Zhao Yu's voice was loud, and immediately everyone's attention was turned to Xichang Hou and Sun Qi.

Marquis Xichang showed some hesitation on his face. Sun Qi smiled and raised his hand. Golden light flowed on the jade seal in his palm.

Rays of light and shadows shone through the jade seal and shot into the sky.

"If this formation wants to see the entire Qingtian Continent, it requires authorization from the several garrisoned warlords stationed at the Northern Great Wall. I don't know if they can agree to this."

Sun Qi spoke loudly. Monitoring the entire Qingtian Continent's formation was beyond the capabilities of the light screens on the training grounds.

This light curtain on the training ground was just a segment of light and shadow captured from the great formation of the Northern Great Wall.

If you want to get a glimpse of the full picture, you need the consent of the warlord guarding the Northern Great Wall.

No one knows how many warlords are stationed at the Great Wall in the North, and no one even knows who is the one who makes the decisions.

As the last barrier of Yongtianzhou, the Northern Great Wall has been retreating step by step and accumulating powerful warriors for countless years. Outsiders don’t know how many troops there are.

"Om-"

A roaring sound was heard, and a black dragon shadow seemed to be swirling above the sky, causing the clouds to twist.

A big man wearing heavy black iron armor and holding a gray-black spear flew down.

Seeing this man, all the Northern Great Wall army generals on the stage bowed and clasped their fists.

"Meeting Marquis Yunchen."

Sun Qi and Xichang Hou also saluted with their fists clasped.

"Marquis Yunchen..."

Zhao Yu showed a bit of surprise on his face.

The elites in training below the stage also looked at this powerful man who came with wind and thunder.

"Little girl, you want control of this Sky-Observing Formation?"

The big man called Yunchen Hou turned around and looked at Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu clasped his fists and bowed, then spoke in a clear voice, "Junior Zhao Yu greets Marquis Yunchen."

"When I was little, I often heard from my elders how Marquis Yunchen defeated the Heavenly Wolf in the southwest and was made a marquis in one battle."

Become a marquis in one battle!
Zhao Yu's words made many elites in the audience exclaim in surprise.

"I remember now. Three hundred years ago, Zhu Beichen was guarding Tianlang Pass in the southwest of Donghan County. He defeated 100,000 enemies with only 8000 of them, forcing the Qi Kingdom to not dare raise its head for three hundred years."

"He, he is Yunchen Hou Zhu Beichen!"

"Marquis Yunchen, the Great Qin War Marquisate is divided into five ranks, and Marquis Yunchen is already the third rank."

In the Qin Dynasty, titles were conferred based on military merit, and it was extremely difficult to become a military hero.

And those who have made great military achievements are all powerful figures on the battlefield.

At the level of military honors and war marquises, it is divided into five grades.

The fifth rank of Wu'an Marquis, with Wu'an Bang as his lord, is the largest rank among all the war marquises.

To be promoted to the fourth-rank Pojun Hou, one needs to have a truly famous battle and defeat the enemy with great victory before he is eligible for promotion.

For example, Marquis Xichang’s military achievements were enough to get him promoted long ago, but because he had never won a decisive victory over the enemy, he remained a fifth-rank marquis.

The third-class Marquis of Zhenguo means "guarding the border and being the pillar of the country."

He was in charge of the military governorship of three counties and one hundred thousand elite soldiers guarding the border. A nine-zhang long bronze halberd was placed at the gate.

Whether in terms of honor or real power, the Marquis of Zhenguo truly shares the same fate with the country.

As for the second-class Marquis of Conquering Heaven and the first-class Marquis of Suppressing Heaven, they can only be obtained by conquering heaven and suppressing heaven.

The Qin Dynasty had not established a new second-class marquis for three thousand years. Even several dukes were granted titles by default, bypassing the first and second-class war marquises.

This is also the regret of many dukes.

Without the merit of conquering the world and stabilizing the heaven, there is no way for him to be promoted to the first or second rank of war marquis. Even the title of Duke of the State is only conferred by the emperor himself and is established on his behalf.

After hearing Zhao Yu's reminder, the elites on the training ground looked at Yun Chenhou again with a fiery look in their eyes.

Marquis Yunchen smiled and nodded, "Zhao Yu, what a good name."

"Since you wish to see the situation outside Xuyang City, I will grant you the authority."

He raised his hand and threw a black iron plate towards Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu reached out to take the iron plate, held it in his palm, then looked up at the light curtain.

The light curtain trembled slightly, and the light and shadow quickly distorted.

Xuyang City shrank rapidly, and the blood-red clouds and the majestic golden light turned into spots of light.

This is to monitor the changes in the formation, from near to far.

"That is--"

The light and shadow paused, and everyone stared at the place where the light was flowing and surging.

"The immortal spiritual energy is shaking the heaven and earth. There are at least 100,000 immortal troops, 3,000 miles outside Xuyang City!"

"The one causing the changes in the sky is the power of a great Buddhist monk. Three thousand miles away, a top Buddhist master is lurking!"

On the stage, several generals stationed at the Northern Great Wall all exclaimed in surprise.

Just as Zhao Yu said, what influences the war situation is outside the battlefield!

Outside the battlefield of Xuyang City, powerful figures from both the immortals and Buddhas have arrived!
