Douluo Continent: Divine Oracle Young General, Qian Renxue, please have some self-respect.

"My dear minister, the welcoming banquet has already been set up in the main hall. Why don't you come with me?"

Xueye said with a smile.

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty," Jiang Ci replied softly, raising his hand slightly.

He paused for a moment.

He turned to look at the heavily armored soldiers following behind him.

The calm voice, aided by the power of the soul, resounded clearly in everyone's ears.

"Everyone, you've had a long and tiring day of fighting. Go home, change your clothes, and relax a bit."

Jiang Ci's tone, which had remained unchanged even when facing emperors and princes, became exceptionally gentle at this moment.

He didn't care about princes or emperors, but he cared a lot about the soldiers who fought alongside him in battles across the land.

They were all people who truly sacrificed their lives for the country.

"Yes, General!"

The soldiers responded in unison, their voices perfectly synchronized.

The ministers were secretly alarmed.

The soldiers under the Divine Oracle General are of one mind and all worship the divine oracle. So it seems that what he said is true!

This young general has only been in the military for a few years.

However, the prestige he cultivated was unmatched by even the older generation of generals who had spent half their lives in the military.

The emperor and princes accompanied them.

People welcomed them along the way.

White armor and a fine steed, a sight to behold!

Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace.

The aroma of wine lingers, and the fragrance of meat wafts through the air.

Palace women were a blur of figures, coming and going.

The plate in his hand held steaming hot food and drinks.

Xue Ye sat upright in the main seat.

And standing to the side, above the second-ranked person, was none other than Jiang Ci.

Next up was the veteran military war god, Goron.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's Sect Master Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Protector Title Douluo Chen Xin, and a beautifully sculpted young girl.

It was clearly Ning Rongrong, the youngest princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heavenly Dou Royal Family have an extremely close relationship.

They were even once considered the backbone of the Heaven Dou Empire's Soul Master force.

Therefore, his position in the imperial court was no lower than that of the old war god Golong in the military.

Seated on the other side were Xue Qinghe, played by Qian Renxue, and the two princes, Xue Beng.

There is also Princess Xueke and Prince Xuexing.

They were all members of the royal family.

"Come, this cup of wine, I toast your triumphant return, my beloved minister!"

Xueye raised the green wine cup in his hand and laughed loudly.

Jiang Ci slightly raised the wine glass in his hand and drank it down in one gulp.

The atmosphere in the main hall quickly became lively.

The soldiers, who had been fighting for a long time, relaxed their tense nerves and drank and ate heartily, venting the frustration in their hearts caused by the war.

Jiang Ci, the main character of the banquet, clearly received overtures from various ministers.

However, Jiang Ci's reaction remained unremarkable.

Qian Renxue, playing Xue Qinghe, stepped forward with a smile, raising her wine glass to Jiang Ci in a toast:

"Brother Jiang, you've worked hard."

"It's just my duty," Jiang Ci replied calmly.

Qian Renxue had already anticipated Jiang Ci's reaction and changed the subject to another topic.

"Brother Jiang, I have a slight idea for improving the deployment and treatment of the border troops. What do you think?"

After several years of getting along, Qian Renxue had a pretty good grasp of the Oracle General's personality.

Ordinary courtly gestures of goodwill had no effect on this divine oracle general.

Qian Renxue was well-versed in the principle of treating the root cause of the disease.

What is it that this Oracle General cares about?

Without a doubt, it concerns the border troops and the safety of the nation.

as predicted.

After she brought up the topic, Jiang Ci changed from her previous calm demeanor and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Oh?"

"His Highness the Crown Prince said he wanted to come and take a look."

A satisfied smile played on Qian Renxue's lips as she softly revealed the method she had already devised.

Listening to her story, Jiang Ci nodded slightly in agreement.

Regardless of Qian Renxue's true intentions.

At least the methods she proposed were good for the security of the entire border defense and the treatment of the troops.

That's enough.

The two chatted happily, which made Avalanche, watching from the side, silently clench his fists and grit his teeth.

The character Xue Qinghe, played by Qian Renxue, already wields considerable power in the Heaven Dou Empire.

If this newly crowned military god of war, who has now surpassed the old war god Goron to become the number one military figure, is he still a contender?

Prince Xuexing, who was standing to the side, took in his reaction and silently shook his head.

Although Avalanche was deliberately playing the role of a playboy.

But in reality, it's not particularly outstanding.

If the other princes hadn't all passed away, and if Xue Qinghe hadn't been acting strangely, he wouldn't have placed his bets on him.

Xue Ye, however, was delighted with the interactions between Xue Qinghe, played by Qian Renxue, and Jiang Ci.

After all, he had long regarded Xue Qinghe as his successor.

It would be a good thing for the entire empire if she could maintain a good relationship with her Oracle General.

The banquet reached its climax.

Jiang Ci and Qian Renxue's conversation came to an end.

At that moment, another figure arrived.

"Sect Leader Ning?"

Jiang Ci was no stranger to the newcomer; he was none other than Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

When he first began to show his talent, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School tried to recruit him into the school.

However, Jiang Ci had no interest in this.

That's why he didn't join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but instead became the current Divine Oracle General.

"General Jiang, let's raise a toast to you."

Ning Fengzhi smiled, raised his wine glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

Jiang Ci returned the toast with a cup.

After they finished drinking, Ning Fengzhi spoke up:

"General Jiang, Fengzhi has a request, but I don't know what your opinion is?"

"Sect Leader Ning, please speak." Jiang Ci's attitude towards Ning Fengzhi was fairly good.

It was probably out of a desire to win him over.

Ning Fengzhi carried out an operation some time ago.

It is called the Sergeant Support System.

It involved arranging for soldiers who were disabled due to the war and unable to continue serving in the army to work in the businesses under the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

This allows them to receive an extra source of income in addition to the imperial subsidies, greatly improving their quality of life.

Regardless of Ning Fengzhi's true intentions, he did indeed do it.

It did indeed improve the lives of these soldiers.

Many of them were soldiers who had once served under Jiang Ci.

Therefore, although he disliked Ning Fengzhi's calculating nature, he treated him quite well.

As the saying goes, a gentleman judges by actions, not intentions.

Ning Fengzhi gently tugged at the girl behind him.

Ning Rongrong stepped forward softly and greeted Jiang Ci gently:

"Hello, Brother Jiang."

Her beautiful, glassy eyes glanced at Jiang Ci with a fleeting gaze.

"Miss Rongrong." Jiang Ci nodded slightly in greeting, then turned his gaze back to Ning Fengzhi.

"What is Sect Leader Ning thinking?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly: "My daughter wishes to become General's disciple. What is your opinion?"

"Become an apprentice?" Jiang Ci frowned slightly.

"Miss Rongrong's martial soul is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which is vastly different from my Divine Oracle Sword. I'm afraid..."

"The Seven Treasures Glass Merchant Guild is currently looking to expand its job opportunities..."

"I think there's no problem."
