How much blood, sweat, and tears had been spilled over so many years?

The large amount was more than enough to drown the entire continent. Those who died had left and they who were still alive had to continue and preserve.

Long Ai Ming took a deep breath; his eyes were solemn. "Yes, I\'m ready."

Old Master Nan looked at Long Ai Ming and smiled faintly. He could still remember the past when Long Ai Ming was nothing more than a brat. This brat came to the barracks, following Old Master Long and learned how to use the sword.

Crying, being beaten up, and training had become the routine.

The weak brat had slowly grown up to become a responsible man and now he had been selected to be the great general leading hundred thousands of soldiers to fight against other kingdoms who dared to enter their territory.

Time passed very quickly.

Old Master Nan took a jug of wine and raised it. "Let\'s go and have some talk."

Long Ai Ming smiled. He knew very well that Old Master Nan loved to drink wine when he was young, but because of his health, he didn\'t dare to drink a lot. It was just that there were some things that would be better be said over wine.

He respected Old Master Nan greatly and also wanted to talk about some things with the other party. "There are indeed some questions I have in regards to the acquisition."

"Ah yeah, it\'s not over. But are you sure that you want to talk about work in this place?"

"I don\'t see any problem with it."

Old Master Nan laughed and didn\'t refute it. Long Ao Ming has always been an impatient person and with his ambition, he didn\'t think that it was strange for the other party to talk about this matter.

He nodded and walked away.

Behind them, General Cao watched as the other generals left and took a deep breath. Being a general and involved in this circle was truly not easy.

…

<Long Qian Xing\'s side>

While the generals were having their own talk, Long Qian Xing politely avoided the few people who wanted to pull him into conversation and walked away. He had no intention of playing along with these officials.

It was too annoying.

Just like his father, he would rather go to the frontline rather than having a long talk with these annoying people who liked to twist their words. While it was necessary to talk with them occasionally, Long Qian Xing had no interest to make it a habit or anything like that.

There was no benefit for him either.

As he walked out, he spotted Shangguan Xiao standing with a glass of wine in his hand. His eyes lit up when he saw Long Qian Xing. "You finally got out. I thought that you\'re going to stay inside for a long period of time."

"I\'m not a person like that." Long Qian Xing rolled his eyes. "And what are you exactly doing here. Aren\'t you busy because of the battle at the border with Shi Long Kingdom?"

"I wish I am." Shangguan Xiao laughed. "I was redeployed to the new north border between Fei Yang Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom. My brother and General Feng would be the main force in the previous border."

Long Qian Xing nodded.

Wei Da Kingdom was originally bordering all other kingdoms. Now that Fei Yang Kingdom had taken over, they would also need to take care of the previous border.

Shi Long Kingdom was definitely going to take some advantage now that they had conquered Wei Da Kingdom. Shangguan Xiao was indeed the most suitable person to be deployed.

Still…

"The border is at the other direction, right? It takes a long time for you to come here." Long Qian Xing snorted. He could still remember the long journey General Gui had to take back then in order to help Yi City.

The border between Wei Da Kingdom and Shi Long Kingdom was located at the far east. Their border with Shi Long Kingdom was also at the east, but it was south of Wei Da Kingdom\'s border with Shi Long Kingdom.

Technically speaking, Yi City should be located far away from the border with Shi Long Kingdom.

Shangguan Xiao rolled his eyes. "Do you think I\'m that amazing? Thanks to General Gui, there has been some ruckuses in this area, so I\'ll have to work from Yi City. There are also some other commanders helping me, but I think I\'ll be busy for the next few months."

Long Qian Xing understood that Shangguan Xiao was here to clean up some mess that was left behind.

"I see."

"By the way, congratulation on your promotion. Now you\'ve taken my brother\'s title." Shangguan Xiao clicked his tongue.

Previously, it was Shangguan Xian who was called as the youngest general in Fei Yang Kingdom. But with Long Qian Xing brushing the record again, it was estimated that not many people would be able to challenge his record.

At least, not anytime soon.

"I was lucky." Long Qian Xing relied more on his maturity and experience to be able to win. Besides, his mental age was already far older than his physical age.

Around 9 years older.

He really couldn\'t be categorized to be that young anymore.

When he first came here, he was technically an adult in a child\'s body. With him already have his own pleasant childhood in his previous world, it was hard for him to truly act like a child when he came here.

Thankfully, most children in this era grew up quicker.

This way, Long Qian Xing was able to adapt and eventually used his own method to grow up quickly and advanced in ranks in the battlefield.

Several years had passed.

And he finally reached the rank he had always dreamed when he was young.
