Star Martial Era: The Way of Star Light Cultivation

Chapter 952: Chapter 381: Taking the Initiative (Part 2)

Just as he finished half his sentence, National Master Cheng Yuexiao’s voice suddenly stopped.

”National Master, with my current status, this task is perfect for me!” Xu Jin said.

”No, your strength is insufficient! Although the Qian’an Emperor is only at the Sixth Tier Peak, he has the National Treasure Seal for protection and numerous Star Artifacts, making his combat power comparable to the Late Seventh Tier.

Moreover, within the Imperial Palace, there is still an Eighth Tier Elder Ritual Officer present.

Not to mention you, even with an Eighth Tier Elder Ritual Officer there, Elder Peng cannot succeed,” National Master Cheng Yuexiao said.

”National Master, I am about to break through to the Fifth Tier! After breaking through to the Fifth Tier, without the Elder Ritual Officer present, I might have a chance to assassinate this foolish emperor!” Xu Jin said.

National Master Cheng Yuexiao looked at Xu Jin suspiciously, thought for a long time, and eventually shook his head.

”Xu Jin, the chain reaction from actively killing the emperor is too great! It’s fine in the present world, but on the Galaxy Battlefield, I’m afraid it will cause a chain reaction.

This matter, I still need to consider comprehensively.

It’s too complicated!

I need time!”

As he spoke, National Master Cheng Yuexiao paused and then said, ”But preparations, can be started to some extent! Especially your breakthrough to the Fifth Tier. Also, you can involve the Divine Son Token of the Blood God Sect in this matter.

At a critical moment, perhaps you can use the Blood God Sect to take the blame.

But just prepare first, understand?”

”I understand!”

Xu Jin nodded heavily, knowing that the National Master could not have spoken further than this.

”The final deadline agreed upon by Qian’an Emperor and that Blood God Son is April 30th, correct?”

”That’s right.”

”Then try to delay the time as much as possible, so I can make more preparations.”

”Understood.”

Afterward, National Master Cheng Yuexiao had a brief conversation with Xu Jin regarding the final progress of Ning Yuchan’s quest for military merit.

Because Ning Yuchan launched a hammer assault on the Central Army Camp to demand military merit, it caused a huge sensation throughout the entire Galaxy Battlefield army. Not only in the Dachen Battle Zone, but also in the Dahong Battle Zone, the Dachu Battle Zone, and even the Barbarian Zone, it was widely spread. Of course, there were some who fueled the flames behind the scenes.

However, the Military Lord of the Mystic Tiger Army, Marquis Yangdu Chai Ce, acted extremely decisively, beheading the Right Minister of War Zhao Weizhen and the related subordinates who caused this consequence and then presenting their heads to all military units to stabilize morale.

At the same time, Zhang Fang, the Guard General of the Fifth Guard of the Mystic Tiger Army, was demoted two levels due to negligence and unclear rewards and punishments, being assigned to the Vanguard Camp for service.

Simultaneously, the Military Adviser and Minister of the Fifth Guard were each penalized.

As for Ning Yuchan, who hammered the Central Army Camp, according to his actual meritorious service, he should be promoted three levels and should now be upgraded to the position of Guard General.

However, according to Dachen military regulations, one must break through to the Sixth Tier to serve as a Guard Leader. Although Ning Yuchan has the feat of killing an Alien Race of the Middle to Late Sixth Tier, due to this regulation, Ning Yuchan was appointed as the Deputy Guard General of the Fifth Guard.

Serving as a Deputy Guard General to exercise the duties of a Guard General, once the Cultivation Level breaks through to the Sixth Tier, the deputy title can be removed.

This outcome is still quite good.

However, knowing the inside story, Xu Jin could only say that Marquis Yangdu Chai Ce is shrewd.

The Right Minister of War whom he removed could still have his head used again to stabilize morale.

Truly capable!

However, being a Deputy Guard General also utterly ruins Ning Yuchan’s potential for short-term military rank promotion.

But on the other hand, it’s a good thing.

Because as a Deputy Guard General, for a considerable time, it is impossible to get promoted in military rank, and it is also impossible to be relocated from the Fifth Guard.

A Guard Leader has a lot of actual power and also has a certain degree of autonomy.

After much consideration, Xu Jin began contacting everyone.

The previously planned elevation of cultivation could significantly boost his cultivation level in a short time. Hence, improving himself is improvement, and enhancing others’ cultivation is also improvement.

Ning Yuchan must be included.

However, as Ning Yuchan is now the Deputy Guard General, the Guard Leader of one Guard, it may not be easy to leave the military camp as freely as before.

Therefore, further discussion is needed.

[Yuchan, can you take about half a month to enhance your cultivation?] Xu Jin sent a Starlight Transmission to Ning Yuchan.

[Half a month should be fine! My Vice Guard General is already appointed. If I leave for half a month, I need to report and ask for leave from the Military Lord there, but using cultivation breakthrough as the reason, it should be okay.]

[Then prepare yourself. If all goes well, depart the day after tomorrow.]

[Okay.]

[Yu’er, do you want to breakthrough to the Fifth Tier?] Xu Jin sent a Starlight Transmission to Ji Hongli.

[Senior Brother, I’ve already broken through to the Fifth Tier. But if you want to take me to improve cultivation, I definitely want to go.]

Seeing Ji Hongli’s Starlight Transmission, Xu Jin’s eyes widened abruptly. This...

[When did you breakthrough? How so fast?]

[Since my cultivation was already at the Ninth Layer Peak of the Fourth Tier, my grandfather and father provided me with a large number of Spiritual Medicines. Five days ago, I successfully broke through to the Fifth Tier and just stabilized my cultivation.]

Looking at Ji Hongli’s Starlight Transmission, Xu Jin felt a bit helpless.

This is true monetary power!

No choice!

The Ji Family has a long heritage. His father even oversees a Fifth Tier Star Domain. Such a long-standing noble family can groom a Fifth Tier quite easily.

Theoretically, a Sixth Tier can also be developed using resources.

However, beyond the Sixth Tier, it cannot be dependent on resources alone and relies on talent, opportunity, and comprehension.

Xu Jin continuously arranged for the people who needed to be brought along.

Because such an opportunity for cultivation enhancement might only occur this once.

After some thought, Xu Jin sent a Starlight Transmission to Ying Ge.

Ying Ge must be included.
