I forged immortality in my past life.

About an hour later.

Li Wu Hui's elite troops had already cleared the battlefield.

Having found a strategically important and easily defensible location to set up camp, the elite soldiers began changing into the Imperial Army's uniforms and armor in batches.

Li Wu Hui then summoned Gao Mingyue to his tent.

"Mingyue, you shall advance your cultivation here."

"Don't worry about anything, I'll take care of everything."

Li Wu Hui smiled confidently.

A positive attitude is very infectious.

Gao Mingyue, who had been somewhat apprehensive, chuckled and bowed in thanks:

"Then thank you very much, Senior Brother Wu Hui, for protecting me."

After saying that, Gao Mingyue took out her longsword and slowly practiced the sword moves.

Although there was no sound of sharp blades cutting through the air, Li Wuhui could feel that the sharp aura on Gao Mingyue's sword was getting stronger and stronger. If an ordinary person were nearby, they would even feel a cold fear of being struck by a sharp blade.

However, Gao Mingyue's sharpness is different from Li Wuhui's Flying Eagle Sword Technique.

It adds a sense of solemnity and authority, like commanding thousands of troops and ensuring that orders are obeyed without question!

puff!

Gao Mingyue suddenly thrust straight forward, her movements several times faster than before!

A tremendous surge of life force gathered, causing her aura to grow stronger and stronger.

A while later.

The overwhelming sense of life finally dissipated as Gao Mingyue sheathed her sword.

【Gao Mingyue】

[Level 4 Messenger Elder (25/1000)]

【技能：4级梯云纵（25/100），4级仙鹤剑术（25/100），3级骑术（50/100），4级传令（此世满级）】

[Level 4 Messenger: Your command transmission efficiency +200%, your troops' command execution rate +60%.]

[Current Legion Combat Power Increase: 30%]

"Amazing! The legion's combat power has increased by a full ten percent!"

"However, on paper, the effect of the level 4 communication skill has doubled, but the actual increase in combat power has been halved."

"Is it because in low-level martial arts worlds, the peak combat power boost in morale and discipline is only 30% at most?"

"No wonder a level 4 messenger skill is listed as the maximum level skill in this world."

Li Wu Hui stroked his chin, feeling that he had gained a better understanding of the power foundation of this world.

Despite possessing remarkable martial arts skills and a mysterious ghost king, any tangible extraordinary power is essentially nonexistent.

Therefore, even the Ghost King Emperor's elite army should not have an excessively strong basic strength.

At least if they encountered him, given Li Wu Hui's extraordinary level 5 soldier strength, he wouldn't be completely powerless to resist.

That's enough.

"Senior Brother Wu Hui, Mingyue has successfully advanced to Level 4 and is now an Elder!"

A sweet, charming voice rang out.

Li Wu Hui looked up.

As expected, it was Gao Mingyue. Seeing Li Wu Hui lost in thought and not congratulating her on her promotion, she couldn't help but speak up to show off.

However, her boasting was clearly not malicious; it was more like a junior showing pride in their progress to a respected senior.

Li Wu Hui chuckled:

"You, Mingyue, when did you master level 3 riding skills? You didn't even teach your senior brother. I still know nothing about riding skills and rely solely on the speed of my level 5 Chasing Wind Steed."

Gao Mingyue shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue, and stubbornly said:

"I thought my senior brother had figured it out long ago, but who knew he didn't even look back once when he charged forward."

"Isn't that because I believe Junior Sister Mingyue can definitely keep up with me? Haha, never mind, let's not talk about this."

Li Wuhui laughed a few times, and waved to Gao Mingyue as he walked out of the tent.

"Come with me, assemble the entire army, I have something to announce."

Within minutes, apart from the scouts who were still patrolling, all three thousand elite troops had gathered together.

Li Wu Hui stood on the makeshift wooden platform, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers with a serious expression.

His sharp gaze stirred the hearts of the elite soldiers, instantly igniting their excitement.

Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him.

Li Wuhui nodded in satisfaction.

He then stepped aside, allowing Gao Mingyue to take the main seat, and announced loudly:

"Fellow comrades, I am honored to introduce a new friend to you all. I believe you are all very familiar with her."

"That's right, she is none other than Elder Gao Mingyue of the Daoist sect, who has just been promoted to Level 4 soldier!"

Congratulations on Elder Gao Mingyue's promotion!

Dozens of third-level officers perked up upon hearing this. They were all shrewd individuals who had already gathered information about the two generals.

Just a few dozen days ago, General Gao Mingyue was only a junior, a level 2 Daoist disciple. Unexpectedly, in such a short time, she has been promoted to a level 4 Daoist elder!

From this perspective, Elder Li Wu Hui and Elder Gao Ming Yue are both exceptionally talented. Could they be the hidden geniuses of the Daoist sect?

Following such a remarkable person would surely increase our chances of victory even when facing the formidable Imperial Army.

Congratulations on Elder Gao Mingyue's promotion!

Congratulations on Elder Gao Mingyue's promotion!

"..."

As the officers of the third rank offered their congratulations, many elite soldiers also reacted and loudly congratulated their general!

Although most soldiers were not very familiar with the two generals.

But having just achieved a complete victory under the general's leadership, the congratulations now seem quite sincere.

"Today is a day of great joy. The entire army will be feasted for two days, with plenty of fine wine and roast meat. The reconnaissance soldiers can enjoy the feast tomorrow and will set off again after they have rested."

Li Wuhui made another announcement.

Congratulations on Elder Gao Mingyue's promotion!

Congratulations on Elder Gao Mingyue's promotion!

The entire army cheered even more excitedly; this time, they were truly happy.

Gao Mingyue was somewhat surprised, as she didn't like such lively gatherings, and gave Li Wuhui a somewhat resentful look.

However, her eyes soon lit up.

She discovered that Li Wu Hui had moved in a single bar seat, and had taken a plate of roasted meat that the cooks had just made, and was drinking and making merry by himself.

Because he refused a toast from a third-ranking officer, clearly wanting to be alone, no one else dared to approach him.

But others dare not.

Gao Mingyue is different.

pat!

A chair suddenly appeared next to Li Wu Hui's chair.

Gao Mingyue quietly sat down and poured Li Wuhui a glass of wine:

"My great general, you've caused me such a commotion, why are you drinking alone?"

"Aren't you going to explain this to me? Shangguan, you should at least inform me before you do anything."

Li Wuhui picked up his wine cup and smiled helplessly.

He knew that this increasingly audacious girl would come looking for him.

"Does Junior Sister Mingyue think I'm going to do something unnecessary, and perhaps you're implying that you don't actually like empty titles?"

Gao Mingyue raised an eyebrow:

"Senior Brother Wu Hui clearly knows everything, is he deliberately bullying me?"

"Of course not, Junior Sister Mingyue is my precious treasure. I would never bully you, no matter who else I might bully."

Li Wu Hui immediately shook his head, raised the wine cup in front of Gao Mingyue, and said softly:

"If this glass of wine represented your prestige in the military, what would you do?"

Gao Mingyue tilted her head: "Use a bigger glass to hold more wine."

"Look, he's so smart even without me teaching him."

Li Wu Hui smiled approvingly: "Although you have outstanding military command abilities, you don't need to care so much about your prestige in the army."

"But I believe that whoever wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"

"Anything that can be done well, you should definitely do it."

Gao Mingyue understood: "Therefore, it is only right to let all the soldiers know that I have been promoted to Level 4 soldier and am now a genuine Daoist elder."

"Disclosing the legitimacy of my strength and identity will significantly increase my prestige!"

Li Wu Hui nodded: "Only reputation and weapons cannot be borrowed from others! Without constant maintenance, how can one build a strong army, let alone defeat an emperor?"
