In the blink of an eye, several days had passed again.
Zhanzheng Academy.
Research Departnt.
This place had been brightly lit for dozens of hours, and more than eighty percent of the thirty-sothing research mbers had not rested for over twenty hours.
But at this mont, everyone’s spirits were incredibly high.
They were staring intently at the small capsule in front of them.
This was their hard work during this period... they all had an almost fanatical longing for this seemingly magical technology.
The end of technology is magic.
These researchers finally began to firmly believe in this fact, and during this period, with the earnest cooperation of Xu Lingjun and the real capsule to study.
This was not creating sothing from nothing, but replicating an existing one, reducing the difficulty by hundreds of tis.
And now, after many days of hard work.
"Experint number 7585, recording!"
Zhang Zhiheng said while recording on the computer: "Experint target, successfully fit a football into the Transformation Capsule, begin!"
Two research mbers, one holding a football and the other the capsule, slowly moved closer.
More than two hundred surveillance caras surrounded them, capturing every detail without missing a single one.
As the two slowly approached...
Everyone couldn’t help but hold their breath.
At this mont.
Within the Imperial Palace.
The sect leaders of the Five Great Sects, and the top ten winners had all recovered from their injuries and arrived at the palace.
Compared to the students of the Martial Mansion, this was another group of young people who were no less impressive.
Han Xu Yang could hardly conceal his smile just by looking at these young people... The Great Xia Empire was thriving with talent, such a great fortune indeed.
But when he saw Xu Lingjun standing at the forefront.
His expression suddenly turned very peculiar.
No matter which team... Xu Lingjun was always the leader...
The initial intention was rely to select suitable talents for the Five Sects Martial Arts Competition, but unexpectedly, this Five Sects Martial Arts Competition ended up serving as a dowry for Xu Lingjun.
Although this was a good thing, allowing for greater understanding of Xu Lingjun’s excellence...
But his purpose was to select hidden talents.
You’ve already been picked by , why jump in to take a spot?
He smiled and said, "Student Xu Lingjun, we et again here."
Xu Lingjun said, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
"You don’t need to choose your reward, I know what you want, Qingxue, go ahead."
Han Xu Yang smiled and said, "Student Xu Lingjun, you should really thank Qingxue because if it weren’t for her proposing to to hold the Five Sects Martial Arts Competition, you wouldn’t have received this reward."
Hearing this, Xu Lingjun gave Han Qingxue a thoughtful look and said seriously, "Thank you, Princess."
"I only intended to help the Empire excavate a few more talents."
Han Qingxue smiled and asked, "Previously, can you hand over the Colonel’s badge to ?"
Xu Lingjun handed the badge back to her.
Han Qingxue smiled as she took back the badge, then took out a more exquisite, shiny gold badge, and said: "I guess you probably haven’t worn that previous badge even once, congratulations to you, in terms of promotion speed, you are the fastest in the entire Great Xia Empire, Vice Commander Xu."
"And also the only one who has been promoted to Vice Commander without being tempered by war."
Next to him, Han Yun City shook his head and said, "Oh... now any random cat or dog can beco a Vice Commander."
"Little City, don’t underestimate Xu Lingjun, during the Dragon Gate Examination, his na as the top scorer in all five subjects even made people from the academy have to admire him."
Han Qingxue laughed and said, "If it cos to the battlefield, he might outperform you."
Saying this, she handed a box to Xu Lingjun and said, "This is what you need, the sa type as what you requested before, thanks to Little City speaking on your behalf, Father granted you all these."
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness."
"You should thank the small city."
Han Qingxue looked deeply at Xu Lingjun, sighing softly.
She could accept losing to a woman... but why did she lose to a man?
This Xu Lingjun is such an excellent person, yet he chose the small city over her?
Are friends more important than won?
Above, Han Xu Yang seriously said, "Xu Qing, actually, I didn’t initially want to give you the position of Deputy Commander. It’s not that you lack the capability, but that every Deputy Commander has earned countless military rits and climbed out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Even my son, Han Yun City, fought for ten years on the battlefield before I gave him the position of Deputy Commander... but you..."
He shook his head and said, "Our Great Xia Empire has regulations. There are strict limitations from Deputy Commander onward. It’s impossible to get promoted rely by flattery and praise. You’ve achieved great rits, which cannot go unrewarded, so I can make an exception for you. But once you accept this badge, if war breaks out, you must imdiately enlist and shed blood for our Great Xia Empire, just as my own son must not be an exception."
Han Xu Yang seriously said, "Now both this badge and this box are awarded to you. You can choose one as a reward, or you can take both, it’s up to you."
Upon hearing this, Xu Lingjun opened the box.
His eyes couldn’t help but light up.
Inside the box, there were seven bottles of spiritual dicine neatly arranged, with notes below... all seemingly high-grade spiritual elixirs for strengthening ridians.
Evidently, they wouldn’t be any worse than the previous Bone and Muscle Gene Enhancer.
But this ti, there were seven bottles at once, seven tis the previous amount, even if he didn’t take the badge, it was clearly a huge gain.
But Han Xu Yang’s words were very clear.
Accepting the Deputy Commander badge, at the outbreak of war, he must be the first to enlist, and as a Deputy Commander, he must also be at the forefront in battles.
If he didn’t accept it, he would still be a Colonel, only taking the box wouldn’t be a loss either.
"Seeing you so puzzled, let give you a detailed explanation."
Han Yun City said, "What my father said is all about responsibility and duty, without ntioning welfare. In fact, after becoming a Deputy Commander, you will enjoy the highest treatnt in the Great Xia Empire, not just resource supplies. The family’s treatnt is also beyond your imagination."
He went on to elaborate in detail.
What Han Yun City explained was much more detailed than Han Xu Yang.
After becoming a Deputy Commander, it’s equivalent to holding a regular position in the military departnt.
Not only do you have duties and responsibilities, but also significant benefits.
So-called benefits don’t just refer to personal cultivation benefits; you can rightfully request from the military the resources you need and have access to many cultivation techniques, and so on...
Your family will be protected by the military.
While enjoying unique privileges, your closest relatives will also be guarded by at least Dongxuan level death warriors!
On the Polar Star battlefield, there are twenty-two satellites dedicated to serving these families. If they don’t go out, they stay in; once they go out, they will be locked onto by computers entirely operated by artificial intelligence and encrypted thirty-seven tis to ensure privacy while maximizing their security.
Conveniences like children going to school and parents doing business do not even need to be ntioned; they all enjoy priority.
Once one person in a family becos an official at the level of Deputy Commander or above, it ans that this family rises to beco one of the most powerful families in the Great Xia Empire.
"To put it bluntly, even soone like Zhu Qing, who stands second to none in the Imperial Capital as a Grand Commander, doesn’t have the authority to arrest a Deputy Commander’s family mber."
Han Yun City said, "This is to ensure heroes bleed on the front lines, not shed tears when they return; even if their family mbers have committed unspeakable sins, my father must personally oversee and judge to ensure justice. No one else has the authority, especially like this ti’s framing. If you were a Deputy Commander, no matter how much Zhou Qianmo tried to fra you, without evidence, no one could touch you."
Zhu Zhengdao dryly laughed and said, "Look, Your Highness, I’m not one to act unreasonably, it’s just that I thought the evidence was conclusive before taking such reckless action. Luckily, no major mistakes were made."
Xu Lingjun imdiately understood.
This ant that if he accepted becoming the Deputy Commander, he would then be equivalent to stepping into the top tier of the entire Empire, not only himself but also Father Wang and Sister Yaya would receive protection... and this protection cos with conveniences granted by the whole empire.
Xu Lingjun was silent for a while, then cheerfully said, "These are really good benefits, but Your Majesty underestimates , Xu Lingjun. As a citizen of Great Xia, it’s only natural to fight for Great Xia. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, and I’ve never shirked my responsibility. If the Great Xia Empire needs , I will naturally shed my blood and lay down my life!"
With that, he took the badge from Han Qingxue’s hand and pinned it on his own chest.
Only to find Han Qingxue’s pretty eyes full of amazent, staring intently at Xu Lingjun.
anwhile, Han Xu Yang stood up suddenly, shouting, "Well said!"
He had heard too many complints, but to be honest, Xu Lingjun’s lightly-worded sentences struck him right in the heart.
He even wished he could also charge to the Polar Star battlefield and fight the mysterious races of the heavens dozens of tis.
Even if it ant dying, it would be fulfilling.
