However, Xia Jing hesitated for a mont but did not object.
It wasn’t because Xia Jing was broad-minded and didn’t care, but because Zhao Xing had helped him many tis, and their relationship was quite good.
If Liao Rulong had not said it was Zhao Xing in the team, and only with Chen Shijie, then Xia Jing would have been anxious.
Just as Zhao Xing had said, it made no difference whether they threw their lot with him or Xia Jing. Even if it was a ruse, Xia Jing still shared the credit for recruiting this spy.
....
The subsequent discussions beca rather trivial, mostly about the disputes over the contributions of the subordinates after the breakthrough.
For example, two commanders simultaneously killed a seventh-rank underground creature.
With no Mirage Pearl recording it, and no Priest among the surrounding troops carrying a Yin God Statue.
The commander of the Xuanjia Army claid he had dealt the fatal blow, while the commander of the Zhenhai Army said he had delivered the lethal strike.
Although a mid-stage Earthly Evil Realm battle rit was only worth 2000 points, which wasn’t much in the eyes of the main generals.
But for the subordinates, these rits were considerable.
Perhaps this was their greatest contribution ever.
So they had to argue, and there had to be a result.
But these disputes had nothing to do with Zhao Xing.
He didn’t lead a team; after breaking through Fire Dragon Pass, he moved independently.
His contributions were relatively clear.
That sa afternoon.
Zhao Xing’s rits were updated.
Originally, before he went to steal the Earth Fire Lotus seeds, his battle rits were over 486,000, ranking outside the top 500 on the Seventh-Rank Battle rit List.
Now he received a reminder from Earth Mirror, and he took a look imdiately.
[Divine Might Army Zhao Xing: Proper Seventh-Rank lower]
[Battle rits: 1,068,421]
[Pacifying Barbarian Battle rit List Rank: 5421]
[Seventh-Rank Battle rit List Rank: 69]
"Aweso!"
"It’s been less than half a year since the fighting started, and I broke a million battle rits!"
Zhao Xing laughed happily.
In his previous life, earning rits was never this smooth.
"It’s truly a dream co true." Mr. Zhao was moved to the verge of tears.
In his past life, his luck was terrible; during the major campaigns like Pacifying Barbarian, he was either fighting Babock of the Fla Light Royal Court or being cut down by Liu Tianning as a transmission envoy.
Now, within a few months, he had earned a million battle rits.
Zhao Xing looked closely, and the Military Realm had briefly elaborated on his battle accomplishnts.
"Lurked in Fire Dragon Pass, brought back Earth Fire Lotus seeds, earned 30,000 battle rits."
"Opened the volcano, led the Minister of Agriculture Camp to cultivate the Fifth Order Earth Fire Lotus, earned 450,000 battle rits."
"Blew up Round Moon City, plus Divine Might Army’s reward for the breakthrough, totaling over 100,000 battle rits."
"Originally, I thought getting thirty or forty thousand battle rits would be enough, but it turned out to be nearly sixty thousand."
For stealing the seeds, Yu Ziqi, Chen Shijie, Long Xiao, each earned around thirty to forty thousand battle rits.
The Military Realm did not consider the risks you took, only the outcos.
Bringing back seeds of the Third or Fourth Rank Earth Fire Lotus could earn an average of twenty to thirty thousand battle rits, which was already a lot.
Because the Earth Fire Lotus seeds were just seeds, only of the Third or Fourth Rank.
Yet the rit for cultivating and planting earned forty-five thousand!
Though Dong He also participated, along with over a thousand Minister of Agriculture Camp mbers contributing to planting and cultivating the Fifth Order Earth Fire Lotus.
But unquestionably, Zhao Xing’s efforts were the most significant!
It also happened to coincide with the Military Realm releasing tasks related to fire protection materials.
Combined with the Fire Protection Robe’s effect on breaking through Fire Dragon Pass, the personal battle rits awarded to Zhao Xing were particularly high.
As for the breakthrough of Round Moon City, that was also a major accomplishnt, plus the Divine Might Army was the main force in breaking through Fire Dragon Pass.
All these added up to nearly sixty thousand battle rits!
During this period, there had been few opportunities to earn major rits, except for the Divine Thunder Army in the west, breaking through Yang Qilin’s first defensive line, which was a significant victory.
The main forces of the Xuanjia Army, Tiger Flood Dragon Army, and Fierce Sun Army in the north were still in a deadlock.
In the Fire Demon Clan war zone, most of the army had been in a lull, yet Zhao Xing earned nearly sixty thousand battle rits.
It was precisely because of this that his ranking skyrocketed in an instant.
In the Seventh-Rank list, he directly rose to 69th place, and his overall rank reached over 5000!
Now, throughout the Pacifying Barbarian Battlefield, Sixth-Rank officials exceeded 60,000, and Seventh-Rank surpassed one million.
Being able to rank 69th certainly made him happy!
"As long as the Military Realm calls for a temporary ceasefire, I can cash in these battle rit rewards." Zhao Xing thought to himself.
A million battle rits, what rewards could he get?
First of all, the noble title. Zhao Xing previously had no title at all, but now with a million battle rits, he could jump ten ranks: three ranks for a baron, three for a viscount, and three for an earl.
If the war ended now, he would have reached the threshold for being granted the title of marquis.
Of course, this would be the lowest grade of marquis, having only feudal land, and no territory.
So how many feudal lands could a million battle rits get him?
According to the rules set by the Military Realm, ten battle rits equaled one mu of inferior land.
A ninth-rank soldier, killing an armored ninth-rank alien race, could earn one mu of square land. (A mu of square land in the Zhou Dynasty was thirty paces long and wide, approximately 200 square ters).
Zhao Xing’s current million battle rits would theoretically entitle him to 100,000 mu of inferior land.
But in reality, the court generally didn’t grant inferior land because that would be insulting; inferior land had too low a yield.
So it needed to be converted.
The conversion between inferior, dium, and superior lands was on a decimal system, aning Zhao Xing would obtain a thousand mu of superior fertile land, though it was generally given as a mix of superior, dium, and inferior lands.
But this was rely the reward for granted land; rising to the rank of marquis also included a portion of feudal land.
According to the minimum standard for a marquis, Zhao Xing would also have a fief of 1,000 households, aning the court would find a place with 1,000 households farming for him each year. The taxes these 1,000 households paid would belong to him.
