Chapter 822, The Upper Echelons of the Empire
The Golden Lion Emperor Huo Ran stood up and announced the reward, "In this review, the ninety-ninth battalion performed the best, each member received the Ace Battalion Medal, a bottle of divine pills, three divine beast crystal nuclei, and a set of divine armor, and obtained the title of baron, if there was already a knighthood, it would be promoted to one level." ”
The people who originally had the title referred to the two deputy commanders of the 99th Battalion and the five commanders-in-chief.
Avril and the middle-aged man were already viscounts, and after receiving this reward, they became counts.
And the five captains, who were already barons, could no longer get barons, and could only be promoted to viscounts.
"From now on, I am also a nobleman!"
"We are all nobles!" ......
The people of the 99th Battalion cheered, hugged each other with red eyes, and wept with joy.
They are grateful to Your Majesty, and even more grateful to the young earl, if it weren't for the young earl becoming the commander of the ninety-ninth battalion, they would not be where they are today!
A group of big men wiping tears looked a little ridiculous, however, no one laughed at them.
In the stands, millions of people were full of envy, and no one knew better than them how difficult it was to go from commoners to nobles!
Except, of course, those from large families......
The reason why the cultivators of the Golden Lion Empire are so keen to participate in the war is to spell out a title, a noble body, and the status and dignity of a superior person!
This process is full of danger, bitterness and cruelty, and every year countless cultivators die on the battlefield, but there are still countless cultivators who come forward one after another, as if they don't care about death, like moths to a fire.
The royal family members and nobles were also a little surprised, although there were rewards for the review over the years, but they were definitely not as rich as this time!
Baron, although the title is not high, but it is also a title, you know, one more noble, the empire will have to issue one more money, and the burden of the empire will be increased, so unless you have military merits, the empire will never easily give nobles, and this time more than 5,000 barons are given, which is not a trivial matter.
Moreover, in addition to the baron's gift, there is also a bottle of divine pill, three divine beast crystal nuclei, and a set of divine armor, which are also more than 5,000 copies, which is not a small amount.
Everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the young earl, all the members of the ninety-ninth battalion had received such a rich reward, then, as the commander, he should also be rewarded.
The Golden Lion Emperor also looked at the young earl, and rarely showed a smile, "The commander of the ninety-ninth battalion has worked hard and made great achievements, and has contributed a powerful military formation, and he is specially named a hereditary duke, and he will be rewarded with ten bottles of Heavenly Rank King Pills, ten Heavenly Beast King Crystal Nuclei, and a set of Heavenly Rank King Battle Armor. ”
The royal family members and nobles gasped, making them all a little red-eyed, you know, it is very difficult to promote the title of earl and above, but this young earl directly skipped the marquis and was promoted to the duke, for the first time in thousands of years, such a situation has occurred.
Moreover, in addition to these rewards, the young earl had already been awarded the title of deputy commander before, which was a real success!
The position of the duke plus the deputy commander-in-chief, to a certain extent, has surpassed the prince of the county and is close to the prince!
Everyone in the 99th Battalion looked at him with reverence and was glad for him, and the commander deserved such a gift!
However, there are always some people who can't see the good of others, Carlyle said with an embarrassed face, "Please think twice, Your Majesty, I think this title is inappropriate, according to the rules of the empire, the title should be promoted by military merits, he did not have the slightest military merits, but he was promoted to the duke, this is probably difficult to convince the public, if everyone is promoted to the title like this, then, who else is willing to participate in the war in the future? Who else is willing to fight for the title?"
"Duke Carlyle is right, please consider carefully, use military exploits to promote the title, this is the tradition of the empire, you can't make an exception easily, otherwise, it will cause a very bad impact!"
William hesitated, gritted his teeth slightly, and also stood up, he was just a marquis, and the young earl who "slandered" the young earl three times and twice today had already made His Majesty a little dissatisfied, if it was him, he would definitely not dare to object...... Carlyle takes the lead in opposition, and he can follow suit.
"Please take back your order!"
Serina didn't think about it so much, she supported her brother unconditionally, and the young earl was her brother's "rival in love", so she naturally had to try her best to suppress it.
Mibecca was about to object, but Prince Getai glared at her, she couldn't help pouting, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
"Who is not convinced?"
The Golden Lion Emperor Huo Ran looked at the three of them, his eyes were sharp, exuding a powerful coercion, and he was faintly angry, "I think it's the three of you who are not convinced, right?
Carlyle, Celia, and William were all pale, silent, and did not dare to squeak anymore.
Rebecca cautiously glanced at her uncle's face, and couldn't help but feel afraid, in her impression, her uncle had always been kind and kind, and this was the first time she had seen her uncle so angry, fortunately her father reminded her, otherwise, a severe reprimand would be indispensable.
"The Remnant Sword Army Formation is of great significance to the empire, and these gifts are all deserved by him, and no one needs to say more!"
After staring at the three of them for a moment, the Golden Lion Emperor's gaze slowly moved away and swept over the royal family members and nobles.
Some of the nobles who originally wanted to oppose them trembled and immediately flinched.
An old man came in a hurry, came to the Golden Lion Emperor's side and whispered something, the Golden Lion Emperor was slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look at the young earl, to be exact, the young duke, "The first emperors summoned you." ”
All the members of the royal family and the nobles were shocked, you must know that the first emperors of the past dynasties are the real pillars of the empire, even if it is a prince, it is not easy to ask to see the first emperors, he can be summoned by the first emperors, there is no doubt that he has attracted the attention of the first emperors!
Long Buqi's expression was indifferent, he didn't feel surprised, in fact, the Golden Lion Emperor and the others couldn't see his true strength, only stronger people could speculate that a person from the Immortal Realm appeared out of thin air, and the high-level of the Golden Lion Empire would definitely not be able to sit still, and they would inevitably summon him.
Follow the old man out of the martial arts field and come to the palace of the Golden Lion Empire.
The road is unobstructed and leads straight to the highest temple of the palace.
A group of gray-haired old men looked at him quietly, as if trying to see him through.
Long Buqi was also looking at these people, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, among these people, there was a top-level power, two power, and five late stages of the Immortal Realm, and the rest were in the middle and early stages of the Immortal Realm, such strength could be compared to the top families in the universe.
You must know that the Golden Lion Empire only occupies half of the Doufa Continent, and the territory is not even one thousandth of the Divine Court, but it can cultivate so many strong people, which shows that the cultivation resources of the Doufa Continent are very sufficient.
