682 Recruitment
The words that were carved on the stone tablet completely determined the future development of the Immortal Academy. This was the foundation, the core, and the undeniable purpose of the academy. It directly revealed the unparalleled spirit of the Immortal Academy.
No matter what school or skill, as long as they were recognized, they were qualified to set up a division here.
One could imagine that once it was implemented, the Immortal Academy would become a giant. Its status in people’s hearts would continue to rise, reaching an unattainable level.
“The Country Lord is wise! The era of the Hundred Schools of Thought, how grand will that be?”
“This Li Xiang is someone who came from the modern era. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such courage. He was born with a philosophy that far surpasses most people.
“It’s hard for modern people! From what I know, there aren’t many who can live well. In the modern world, people work from five to nine every day and exhaust their bodies. They will have to trade their health for money to survive. Compared to the ancient people, when facing fierce beasts, the ones who run at the back are definitely the modern people, and they will suffer the most casualties. Moreover, they come from different worlds, and many of them even come from the worlds of movies and television. They have no skills and no strength. In the Myriad World Continent, the situation is truly terrible!”
In fact, in the Kingdom of Dawn, there were many people from modern civilization. It seemed that there were many people in ancient times, but in fact, there were more people from the modern world. However, most of them died miserably in the wilderness.
Those who were alive were like refugees, wandering around.
Without any skills, it was a joke to say that modern people could live well in ancient times, especially in troubled times.
The trials and tribulations had let these people know that traveling alone was simply courting death. Not only was there no use at all, but it had also made them seem like clowns. However, the modern people in the Kingdom of Dawn all secretly suspected that Li Xiang came from the same modern society. This was because there were too many traces of the modern era in the Kingdom of Dawn.
A sense of uniqueness that couldn’t be erased.
There were also some shops in the city that sold underwear, some exquisite jewelry stores, and so on. One could vaguely feel a trace of the modern atmosphere.
Of course, even if one suspected it, it was nothing. This was the Myriad World Continent, the center of the universe.
Everyone had a chance and the possibility of becoming strong. It all depended on whether one worked hard and whether one had such luck.
Everyone knew that they couldn’t get in touch with Li Xiang as modern people.
…
Not long after, Master Chef Chen Tao had already served the breakfast that had been prepared.
After personally tasting the food, Cai Yong, Qi Jiguang, and the others were all amazed. It was an unprecedented enjoyment, and it was a perfect experience.
After the meal, Li Xiang looked at Qi Jiguang and didn’t hide the admiration in his eyes. “General Qi, the human race is now in a precarious situation and is constantly facing various threats. If we’re not careful, we might be annihilated. For the people of the Kingdom of Dawn, I implore you to stay.
“In the Kingdom of Dawn, the military and government are separated. The military doesn’t meddle in politics, and the government isn’t involved in the military. I’ll establish the Military Pavilion, which will only report to me. I wonder if General Qi is willing to join the Military Pavilion?”
He was a great talent, a top talent in the military.
In the history of China, how many people were able to establish an army that could deter the world with their name? There were only a few!
For example, the Army of Yue and the Army of Yang of the Song Dynasty were families of generals who had fought and killed for their fame. The Army of Yue earned its reputation by killing. In a family, all their children entered the battlefield. The Army of Yang was loyal to the Country Lord and had been a family of generals for generations.
The Army of Qi was an army made up of farmers and miners. The Army of Qi was famous for its strict military discipline, professional training, the most advanced equipment, and its record of more than 100,000 decapitation strikes. They were especially good at using long spears and long spear battle arrays. With the mandarin duck formation, they were invincible on the battlefield.
Qi Jiguang’s ability to command and train troops weren’t just for show. Since he had encountered it, he naturally couldn’t let it go.
“Country Lord, I plan to take a look around the city first. I will give you an answer in three days.” Qi Jiguang didn’t agree immediately and acted very cautiously.
Cai Yong trusted his daughter’s judgment and decided because his daughter was also in the Kingdom of Dawn. Qi Jiguang obviously wouldn’t be in such a hurry. He wouldn’t make a rash decision without understanding the situation in the Kingdom of Dawn.
“Good! I’ll wait for your reply.” Li Xiang nodded and didn’t try to persuade him.
This kind of general who had experienced mountains of corpses and seas of blood had always been a determined person. Unless he saw it with his own eyes and made his judgment, it would be useless to say anything else.
“General Zhang, you’ve made a great contribution by offering the map and saving tens of thousands of students and civilians. I’ve said before that I’ll assign you a position when I return. Your cultivation and combat power are unparalleled in the army. From today on, you will enter the Military Pavilion and be given the position of a two-star heavenly general. Of course, this is only temporary. Only when your cultivation and strength have reached the required level will you be promoted.” Li Xiang looked at Zhang Fei and said directly.
The Nine-Rank Military System was formulated in the military and was also the foundation. It was a system that could not be changed in the future.
It comprised ninth-rank heavenly soldiers and nine-star heavenly generals.
In terms of cultivation, to become a heavenly general was not something a mythical realm could do. One had to be in the Holy Light realm.
In the transcendent realm, the highest rank one could achieve was a third-rank heavenly soldier. Legendary realm ranks were four to six, while mythical realm ranks were seventh to ninth-rank heavenly soldiers. The minimum threshold to become a heavenly general was the divine realm.
Even Li Xiang was only in the Rank 2 of the divine realm, which showed how difficult it was to advance in the divine realm.
The Kingdom of Dawn only had so many divine realm powerhouses because Li Xiang’s subordinates were too powerful.
Even someone with Zhang Fei’s potential was still stuck at Rank 9 of the mythical realm.
In other words, a ninth-rank heavenly soldier transcended the three realms of transcendent, legendary, and mythical. Only when one broke through to the mythical realm and reached the divine realm would they have the right to become a one-star heavenly general.
The Kingdom of Dawn couldn’t have too many divine realm experts. That level was equivalent to that of immortals and gods.
However, an army must have generals. For people like Zhao Yun and Zhao Sheng, who had followed him all the way, he must give them the right to command the army. This resulted in the present expedient. The real military rank was calculated according to the Nine-Rank Military System, but the position received was at the level of a heavenly general. However, this was only a virtual rank. The salary they receive were still paid according to their true military ranks. However, they would also be given a subsidy according to their military position.
Only one-third of the military pay would be given to those who received a virtual rank. This was the difference between a virtual title and a real title.
