Chapter 832: Chapter 833: I’ll Let You Have Both Hands! (4 more updates)
Under the leadership of Jia Wenhe, Ling Feng and Lee Bufan soon arrived at the Commander Tent.
Within the tent, a somber atmosphere prevailed.
Ling Feng vaguely felt that the gaze of most of these generals was not particularly friendly.
“Do they underestimate for my youth?”
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow, realizing that these Frontier Guard Generals were naturally different from the civil officials of the Imperial City, each with a rebellious spirit, having established significant rits for the Empire before sitting in the position of General.
And he himself, barely out of childhood, not only beca General Wei Yuan but also received three hundred points of military honor, was understandably looked down upon by these generals.
However, his trip was rely to explore the Three Thousand Great Dao in the Ancient Tower Forest; unless these fellows went too far, he felt no need to struggle against them for now.
“Subordinate Fang Wentong (Jia Wenhe), pay respects to the Grand Commander!”
Fang Wentong and Jia Wenhe, upon entering the tent, imdiately showed utmost respect and saluted Han Li, seated on the throne.
Ling Feng and the others also hurriedly bowed to Han Li, with the necessary etiquette in front of the Three Armies Grand Commander not to be neglected.
Within the barracks, hierarchy was more stringent than in the Imperial City.
“Grand Commander, this is the Wei Yuan General personally appointed by His Majesty. General Ling, this is the Three Armies Grand Commander.”
Jia Wenhe quickly introduced Ling Feng and Han Li to each other.
“Young friend Ling Feng, I’ve heard of your na long ago, haha!”
Han Li laughed heartily, intentionally avoiding calling Ling Feng by his title of Wei Yuan General, instead using “young friend,” clearly indicating his lack of full acknowledgnt of Ling Feng’s rank as General.
As such, Ling Feng was rely a symbol of royal authority, “touring” the border, unlike the generals present who commanded the three armies.
“Indeed, an old fox!”
Ling Feng slightly squinted his eyes and secretly cursed, but remained composed, saying, “The younger generation was blessed by His Majesty and appointed as General Wei Yuan; thus, in this tent, everyone need not regard as so young upstart. At this mont, I am rely a soldier.”
After speaking, Ling Feng gave a standard military salute to Han Li, with a solemn expression, saying, “Subordinate Ling Feng, pay respects to the Grand Commander!”
Han Li’s pupils contracted slightly, apparently surprised that this young lad had such ticulous thoughts. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he thought: This young lad is sowhat interesting.
Han Li gestured to the first seat on his right side, casually remarking, “A guest from afar, General Ling has traveled a long distance. I’ve already prepared drinks and food to welco General Ling, everyone please take seats.”
Soon, the soldiers Ling Feng brought each took their seats, as did Mu Qianxue and Tuoba Yan, though won, were also seated since they’d co.
At the banquet, Ling Feng tried multiple tis to express his intentions, but Han Li consistently used various excuses to offer drinks, preventing Ling Feng from speaking.
After several rounds, with so wine in him, Wu Kui gained courage and suddenly stood up, pointing at Ling Feng’s nose, saying, “General Ling, right?”
“Junior Ling Feng, I wonder what advice the General has?”
Ling Feng slightly squinted his eyes, knowing these people only called him General due to their fear of the Emperor’s authority, but deep down they looked down upon him.
“Heh, I dare not instruct. We bleed on the battlefield, defending the Empire’s territory, while General Ling rely wins the Emperor’s favor with re talk, never staining his hands with a drop of enemy blood, easily gaining the title of Wei Yuan General, truly delightful!”
Wu Kui, being a crude man, spoke without restraint, emboldened by strong liquor, he openly voiced what he had suppressed inside.
Of course, this was with the Three Armies Grand Commander’s tacit approval, wanting to test Ling Feng’s capabilities.
“Wu Kui, how bold of you!”
The advisor on Han Li’s left imdiately rebuked, “The Grand Commander just advised, yet you quickly disregard it?”
“Hmph, I’m not saying it behind his back; I’m saying it right in front of him!” Wu Kui snorted lightly.
“No problem.” Ling Feng gently raised his hand, signaling Fang Wentong to sit down, and smiled as he spoke to Wu Kui, “According to General Wu, am I unqualified to be General Wei Yuan then?”
“Naturally not.” Wu Kui drank another bowl of wine and shouted, “This General only believes in strength; if you can defeat , I’ll respect you!”
“Hahaha…” Wu Kui laughed heartily and continued, “However, you, a re child in the Magnetic Condensation Realm, it would be bullying for my General to engage you. But my Heavenly Might Camp has a recently promoted vanguard, not much older than you, recently advanced to the Divine Origin Realm. If you can beat him, I might admit you have so skill.”
Ling Feng glanced at Marshal Han Li seated above, but the old fox showed no sign of stopping Wu Kui, clearly having silently approved.
However, Ling Feng didn’t reply, simply smiling faintly, without giving a definite answer.
“Hahaha, scared?”
Wu Kui laughed loudly, “Alright, if even the Divine Origin Realm won’t do, then switch to an Origin Transformation Realm. You supposedly call yourself a genius, won’t make my General find a Magnetic Condensation Realm small fry to spar with you, right? There are no such weak generals in our Northwest Army, hahahaha…”
Several generals sitting beside Wu Kui also laughed loudly.
“General Wu, I think you are mistaken.” Ling Feng shook his head with a smile, “Since it’s you, General Wu, who’s dissatisfied with , I should spar with you; what’s the point of fighting others?”
“You want to spar with ?”
Wu Kui almost doubted his ears, staring disapprovingly at Ling Feng and laughing aloud, “Haha, are you drunk? You dare to challenge ? Haha, Magnetic Condensation Realm, challenging King-level?”
Everyone around was astounded; Ling Feng was indeed too ignorant of his capabilities.
Even the Three Armies Grand Commander Han Li’s eyelids twitched; what was this lad playing at?
“What’s the matter? General Wu wouldn’t dare?”
Ling Feng smiled faintly, appearing calm and collected.
“I wouldn’t dare?” Wu Kui felt his blood rushing, sneering, “Kid, don’t bla this General for bullying you, I’ll suppress my cultivation to the Early Stage of the Divine Origin Realm and let you my right hand, how’s that?”
“No need.” Ling Feng stood with hands behind his back, proudly stating, “I am the junior, you are the senior, the young should respect the old.”
Ling Feng’s lips curled into a faint smile and he said, “I’ll let you use both hands!”
Each word reverberated like a heavy hamr, causing the ground to rumble.
A brash young fellow!
For a mont, the soldiers within the tent exchanged glances; how could a re martial artist, not even in the Divine Origin Realm, dare challenge a King-level expert and let him both hands?
This was turned upside down!
If soone in the Magnetic Condensation Realm could defeat a King-level expert, what was the point of cultivation?
Perhaps this lad was accustod to fighting across levels in the academy, leading to blind confidence now, thinking himself invincible. So thought the crowd.
Only Lee Bufan and a few others exchanged glances, wearing a faint smile.
Since Ling Feng dared to speak this way, he must have a plan!
