knew nothing about it, you probably wouldn't believe me.""Some things are not about whether you're willing or not, but whether you're able to do them." Ye Lingxiao looked at him. "Do you remember this...Zheng Xuan, having accumulated enough merit, can now ascend to the heavens without regrets.
He Jiangwang only just ascended to the fourth floor today, grasping the path of cultivation. It will take some time to truly understand it... He cannot sacrifice the future for a momentary victory in this divine confrontation.
He could have said that, but he didn't.
He only said, "I lost," just those three words.
There is no excuse, no reason.
He indeed lost this battle.
He lost gracefully.
The strength of his unsheathed sword, capable of shattering multiple layers of Chongxuan Zun's starlight defenses, remains a mystery.
>
And Chong Xuan's Sun, Moon, and Star Three-Wheel Slashing Void Sword was certainly capable of beheading him.
Of course, he still had some hidden magical powers that he could not reveal.
Can a path of wrongdoings lead to the elimination of delusions Whether it can truly accomplish error correction is still unknown.
His victories are unknown, but his defeats are real.
So of course he lost.
He was very clear.
Zhong Xuan's choice to ascend to the divine realm wasn't because he lacked faith in his own 'Three Wheels of Sun, Moon, and Stars - Blazing Slash'. It was because he refused to win with a humiliating display. He wouldn't allow himself to face the possibility of a draw, nor could he accept the outcome of both sides being crippled, missing out on this battle against Xia.
Of course, the best outcome would be to have the power from beyond the outer floors crush Jiang Wang on the outer floor.
But nowadays he can't do that anymore.
To this day, no one can do it!
Even though he lives up to his reputation for brilliance, he can only barely edge out the competition—his recent battle proved this point.
So he walked forward.

As he said, after fighting Jiang Wang to this extent, he had seen enough of the scenery outside the building.
Thus, he strode towards the divine presence.
Thus, the divine presence descended.
At this moment, Jiang Wang is falling from the high sky, facing reality head-on, and calmly accepting the outcome.
He has done his best, so there is nothing to regret.
At this moment, he and Chongxuan Zun passed each other in the air. He turned to face the vast army, returning to the ranks of the defeated. Chongxuan Zun faced the platform for generals, welcoming the glory of victory.
Jiang Wang's steps were still leisurely, his back still straight. His sword remained in its sheath, still sharp.
This is a placeholder.
There is no such thing as depression, nor is there such a thing as decline.
In this world, stars shine brightly and talented individuals compete relentlessly. Anyone can fail, even Jiang Wang.
Efforts are not unique to him, Jiang Wang. Talent is not exclusive to him either. Every shining prodigy has their own unique experiences.
As long as you truly give it your all, then no matter what the outcome may be...
Just face it.
Victory is welcomed with joy, and defeat is accepted with calmness.

That's all.
When Jiang Wang walked down, looking at the vast sea of people, he was about to merge into it.
But suddenly, he heard a sound—
"Congratulations!"
It is a thousand voices, it is ten thousand voices.
He is the bravest among all soldiers, and to every spectator watching this battle, they cannot help but cheer for the peerless prodigy of Da Qi, and applaud for this breathtakingly magnificent battle!
It is not some mystical sonic killing technique, nor has it been infused with any secret arts or divine powers, yet it possesses a power that shakes the heart.
Wonderful!
For the Battle of Tianfu!
To the valiant heroes of Da Qi!
For two people who are giving it their all to win!
Jiang Wang was taken aback for a moment, then smiled. Zhen Xuan from the front of the stage also turned around.
They almost nodded at the same time, applauding those who gave them cheers.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang continued walking forward, like a drop of water merging into the sea of people.
Li Fengyao looked at him, Li Longchuan looked at him, Yan Fu looked at him, Chong Xuan Sheng looked at him...
His friends looked at him with gentle eyes.
And behind him, Cao Cai's voice boomed from the general platform: "Chong Xuan is valiant and excels all three armies. He shall be the vanguard for our expedition against Xia! From the Spring campaign, three elite regiments will be drawn from all provinces, to form a vanguard camp under his command, and he will lead them into battle!"
As the most elite army of the Great Qi Empire, the Nine Divisions Army System, one division consisted of one thousand people.
One set up a governor, two deputy governors, and ten commanders.
The threshold for the position of the Grand Marshal is to break through the ascension of the Heavenly Dragon cultivators at the Heavenly Gate.
The threshold for the position of Deputy Commander is a cultivator at the Heavenly Transcendence Realm.
The current position requires a cultivator at the Zhoutian realm.
Below the ranks of the army, though there is no extraordinary threshold, one still must pass through the selection of the various legions. Only the elite among the strong can enter the Nine Squadrons.
Cultivation is merely the threshold, promotions require military achievements. Those who have reached a high level of cultivation but are stuck in lower ranks are everywhere.
So, this is a truly exceptional creature, with proportions that are incredibly remarkable.
What is extraordinary
The extraordinary can live well anywhere.
To keep exceptional cultivators within the ranks, we must use military regulations to restrain them and ensure their obedience. Beyond honor, they must also see tangible prospects for advancement and receive concrete benefits that surpass those available elsewhere!

Why would someone choose to be a powerless soldier instead of living a life of luxury and respect as an esteemed gentleman
Responsibility and ideals, in the end, cannot sustain everyone.
Why are there so many cultivators willing to join the military
Because the military has always been the best place for civilian children to advance.
In the State of Qi, there even appeared figures like Xiu Yuan and Yan Tu who rose all the way to high-ranking officials in the imperial court from being humble nine-man squad leaders.
>
And those opportunities, resources, are all real things, not make-believe. They represent actual expenditures.
The others don't care.
These elite armies across the land, their monthly pay alone amounts to astronomical figures, requiring carts laden with grain. No country short of a hegemon could possibly afford to maintain such vast military forces.
What would such a powerful army eat and drink daily What kind of elixir should they take
>
What kind of armor should you wear What weapon should you use In what kind of environment should you live, and what kind of runes should you imprint The runes also need to be replaced regularly and adjusted according to time and place, which is another considerable expense.

Those warhorses with demonic beast bloodlines, of course, couldn't be fed ordinary fodder. Each horse was a gold-eating beast.
In addition, for such a sharp military force, what kind of battle formations should be used Battle formations must not be rigid and unchanging. Those combined military tactics need to be constantly innovated, otherwise, on the battlefield, there will only be a beating. When other countries come up with new combined military tactics, you must organize people to crack them as soon as possible. Similarly, once you have used a combined military tactic, other countries will have already found ways to counter it.
These formations, these military strategies... how much human and material resources are needed to constantly innovate and evolve them
When Qian Xiangping was in office, he once said inadvertently while reviewing the art collection consumption records: "I suddenly felt a chill down my spine!"
Even someone like Lian Yanping finds this unbearable, which shows the immense cost involved.
With all these, several strong armies could completely drain a financially weak nation.
This is just the usual army training!
A large-scale army movement means doubling the military pay first. In addition to that, there's also a housing allowance. If you want people to fight desperately, how can you do it without providing a housing allowance
A story of a protracted war that drained the national treasury is not uncommon in history.
Compared to the extraordinary consumption of resources, the amount of grain consumed by ordinary soldiers is negligible.
A rising power like the state of Zhuang, with its full national strength, emulated strong states and managed to only raise two elite armies. Even after a large-scale military expansion, they only increased the number of Jiujing Xuanjia soldiers from one thousand to three thousand.
Not to mention the gap between the 3,000 Xuanjia soldiers from Jiujiang and the 3,000 Jiuzhu soldiers from Dachi.
Both sides' daily drills, the battle formations they used, the armor they wore, the skills they practiced, and the techniques they cultivated differed greatly in every aspect.
That's it, and this is the result even though officials and the ruler of Zhuang had already tightened their belts!
Such a powerful army of Jianghai Xuanjia would be enough to make neighboring small countries bow down and submit.
But what about these large numbers of infantry
A single autumn campaign eradicated the Yang kingdom, while a spring defense held fast at Sword Peak Mountain.
Sweeping across the Eastern Territories, unrivaled among all nations. At the Gates of Ten Thousand Demons, within the Illusory Realm... Wherever the human army marched, his feats of valor were legendary!
Such elite warriors, under the support of a powerful army, are truly capable of challenging the extraordinary gap!
Cao Jie at this time with the spring death army three du Jia shi調撥 heavy Xuan Zun, he this伐夏 vanguard general can be said to be famous and real.
Regardless of the overall outcome of the War of Qi Xia, in this final struggle for the hereditary title of Marquis of Bo望, he wielded the might of a divine presence, surpassing Jiang Wang's martial prowess. With his magnificent and overwhelming aura, he truly overshadowed Zhong Xuan at this time.
"At your command!"
Zhong Xuan deeply bowed to Cao Jie, his bearing and manner impeccable.
As soon as Cao's personal guards arrived, they led him to the spring where the army perished, in search of his three elite warriors.
Before taking his leave, he specially bowed to Chen Zeqing as a gesture of respect.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He took the three top warriors of the Spring and Autumn Army, so naturally he needed an attitude.
While Chen Zeqing merely nodded slightly, acknowledging the statement.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
There was no sign of discontent over the removal of elite troops, nor any sense of familiarity with the new God-General, Xuan Feng Hua's imposing presence.
He sat calmly in his wheelchair, seeming to understand everything and accept it all.
Cao, on the platform, did not announce any other appointments. The specific and detailed military affairs were naturally handled by the various generals within the army, layer by layer.
On the battlefield, the Heavenly Palace Martial Arts tournament was held. This battle, rarely seen throughout history, was indeed magnificent.
Then he only looked towards the direction of Xia Guo and said, "Set off!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Thus, the army set off with a sudden rush, marching south.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Flags stretched for miles like dragons, soaring across the vast land.
Jiang Wang and Chong Xuan both belong to the Autumn Killing Army.
Members of the Chongxuan family, naturally should be in this army.
According to Chongxuan's prior plans, he and Chongxuan should divide the Autumn Slaughter Army into two, with each leading ten thousand soldiers. They would then face each other on the battlefield, fighting valiantly and determining their standing through military achievements.
But Chongxuan's move to the forefront of the battlefield, leading ten thousand troops, directly broke out of the confines of cultivating within the "snail shell" dojo and pushed himself onto a larger stage—
...even falling to the very center of the Battle of Qi Xia!
"The so-called 'avant-garde' refers to the tip of a spear and the point of a sword."
The front line is where the two armies first clash.
Zhong Xuan only had three thousand men under his command. For fairness, Zhong Xuan certainly couldn't lead ten thousand again—with his cultivation, being the Autumn Killing Army's commander was already a stretch, and he needed Jiang Wang's help.
In the end, he was only a commander of three divisions of infantrymen. He established his own camp.
>
Autumn Killing Army soldiers perhaps did not lose much to Spring Dead Army soldiers. Being in the Autumn Killing Army, as the main force of Qi army, they would definitely not lack opportunities to make achievements.
But compared to the importance of the Vanguard Camp... it's really hard to see a chance of turning things around.
The army rumbled forward to the front line.
Just three minor officials of the Three Prefectures, their military affairs were trivial compared to Xuan Sheng's. They accomplished everything with ease, treating it like a mere pastime, and quickly gathered around Jiang Wang.
Patted him on the shoulder and said in a serious tone, "You almost won!"
Jiang Wang came back to his senses from his pondering on the path, and looked at him slantingly: "Comfort me"
Zhong Xuan's fat face crinkled into a menacing frown as he said, "What I mean is, why don't you try harder normally! You were just a little short of beating him, you say you..."
He thought for a moment, his face relaxing and breaking into a wide grin. “When I took you to the brothel, you were cultivating. It seems like there's no more room for effort! You shouldn’t be blamed for that!”
He said, "I shouldn't blame you," but what he meant was, "Don't blame yourself."
Jiang Wang merely patted his shoulder: "I'm glad you're admitting that, you used to drag me to the brothels."
He could certainly receive the comfort that Chong Xuan offered, which was better than nothing. However, this did not prevent him from emphasizing the word "brothel."
>
Fourteen's expression remained hidden behind his mask, still unspoken.
But Chong Xuan Sheng with a startling reaction, turned around immediately and deflected the topic: "I'm going to find Chong Xuan Zun!"
"What are you looking for him for" Jiang Wang called out from behind.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Chong Xuan angrily said, "I feel sick! I'm disgusted by him!"
"I don't care about getting beaten up!" Jiang Wang paused, adding to Shi Fourteen who was still processing, "I can't beat Chong Xuan Zun right now, as you saw..."
Fourteen actually rolled her eyes.
Then he pursued Chongxuan's victory closely.
Jiang Wang stood there for a long moment, speechless.
It's a really good fourteen, what's going on lately This is too much favoritism!
He took me to visit brothels and you don't care
Have you heard
Well...
I give up.
>
Just then, a military truck carrying tents drove by. Jiang Wang jumped onto it and started practicing his kung fu.
Anyway, in the midst of a large army's march, Chong Xuanzun would not be able to truly do anything to Chong Xuansheng. He might as well let him fidget.
Of course, it's easy to find someone as brilliant as Chong Xuan.
>
A figure in white, like snow, was walking and talking with a deceased spring army general.
Zhong Xuan quietly leaned forward, wanting to hear what this distinguished cousin had to say about military affairs.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Unfortunately, his physique isn't very conducive to keeping a low profile.
And Fourteenth, clad in full armor, followed closely behind, looking quite menacing.
Zhong Xuanzun stopped speaking, halted his steps, and calmly observed him.
Zhong Xuan recognized the general beside him as Wu Duoqiu, the commander of the Chunsi army. A rising star in the army—of course, he wouldn't be under Zhong Xuan's command.
in one's heart, they categorize him as a close friend of the treacherous and cunning.
His gaze seemed to casually glance over, but he had already memorized several nearby commanders. Looking back briefly would allow him to find the corresponding information.
It's not about necessarily doing something, but at least having a grasp of the power that Chong Xu Zun wields. This allows you to more accurately judge Chong Xu Zun's choices...
>
My mind is racing with countless thoughts.
Zhong Xuan Sheng strode forward, grasped Zhong Xuan Zun's hand tightly, and shook it vigorously. "Brother!"
Please note that I only translated the content within the " > " tags. The HTML tags remain unchanged.
“Today, the army sets off. You only achieved divine presence today, and you need to take a break to consolidate your cultivation properly. To take on the vanguard role at this time is irresponsible of yourself. If there are any flaws in your path, this will truly be a major setback in one’s life——”
He said with emotion, "Let your brother go in your place!"
Next to him, Wu Duqiu almost choked on his own saliva. He held back with all his might, afraid to make a sound that would betray him.
Zhong Xuan blinked. "What is consolidating one's cultivation I don't quite understand."
He said calmly, “I have achieved the state of Shenlin, as if I've understood it completely.”
Zheng Xuan's heart was filled with thousands of words, but in that moment they all boiled down to a single, frustrated exclamation: "Damn it!"
He spoke with wicked cunning, saying that Chong Xuan intentionally waited until today for the deity to arrive, in order to suppress his and Jiang Wang's influence. He placed the struggle for the title of Marquis of Bo望 above the war against Xia.
At the same time, deliberately act like loving brothers to disgust Chongxuan.
But Zhong Xuan completely ignored the other topic and only boasted about his talents. No matter how many words you used, with so many traps hidden in each sentence, I would just say "I'm so strong." Even in language, there was indeed a bit of that "cutting through nonsense" style.
Zhonghuan let go of his hand, and with a smile, said, "Then my younger brother can rest assured."
Zhengxuan said with a smile, "Just put your heart at ease."
>
And so, these two good brothers looked at each other with smiles.
Glances across the battlefield.
One is plump and gentle, the other dashing and aloof.
Wu Duqiu stood beside her, suddenly feeling that this winter was indeed a little colder than usual.
Just a brief aside.
Happy New Year! Wishing you prosperity and good fortune.
