The court was shocked
A beam of light shined from the Shenwu Star Tower, reaching hundreds of millions of miles into the starry sky. The hundreds of millions of people and countless martial cultivators in the entire Zixuan Dynasty were instantly shocked.
Even the forbidden Zixuan Palace was in shock.
The imperial palace is located in the north of the imperial city. In the magnificent palace, the palace buildings are stacked on top of each other. Under the guard of countless royal guards, it is difficult for a feather to fly.
In the center of the palace, there is a majestic Jinluan Palace carved with dragons, jade and phoenixes. On the top of the hall are yellow glazed jade tiles. The Chaji beasts are ten mythical beasts, each of which is a wind-riding spirit, a dragon, a phoenix, a celestial horse, etc.
The remaining double eaves and vertical ridges, as well as the thick beams and columns, are covered with totems of eighty-eight holy gods flying into the sky, all of which are the pilgrim gods of the Zixuan Dynasty.
Inside the grand hall.
On the throne of the Supreme Emperor of the Zixuan Dynasty, there sat a middle-aged man wearing a purple-gold dragon emperor's robe. His breath was calm and distant, his eyes were deep and insightful, but he looked at the ministers with a hint of indifference.
On both sides of the court, hundreds of extraordinary civil and military ministers wearing civil official brocade robes and military attache battle armor stood in rows.
There was a solemn atmosphere in the entire hall, and the ministers were discussing the formation of the Mammoth Corps.
The dynasty had made a decision not long ago to form a 100-head beast king-level mammoth corps.
This is no small matter.
The beast king level corps, that is to say, the beast control mounts of all the knights in this corps must all reach the beast king level.
Such a high-level corps is also the highest-level corps in the entire Zixuan Dynasty. Even if the entire Zixuan Dynasty gathers the strength of the higher-level Beast King-level corps, it cannot do it. Whether it is the Martial King of the Shenwu Human Clan or the Beast King of the Beast Clan, they are enough to become giants, and they will listen to orders but not propaganda.
However, some ministers still disagreed over some specific details of preparing to establish the Corps.
"Your Majesty! I think it is inappropriate to use the Battle of the Void Arena to determine the share of mammoth training. Mammoths are related to the great fortune of our Zixuan Dynasty. They should be directly taken back to the imperial court and taken under strict control, becoming our Zixuan Dynasty. A sharp weapon to deal with the Nanzhou Beast Alliance, becoming the only dynasty in the Shenwu Continent that possesses this weapon. Private traders like the Beast King Pavilion must not be allowed to occupy any share of the mammoths. In case they are driven by selfish interests, they will take the raised A group of mammoths were secretly sold to the Nanzhou Beast Alliance and betrayed the human race. Then it will be difficult for the mammoth corps that we spent a lot of money to build to become a unique weapon! Wei Chen suggested that it is better to give them thousands of yuan stones and let them hand over Just bring out the mammoth."
A military attache named Chai said excitedly.
"Master Chai's words are inappropriate. This mammoth was originally resurrected by the people from the Beast Emperor Pavilion. If they betrayed the human race and wanted to sell it to the Beast Alliance privately, they would have already bought and sold it. Why wait until they cooperate with the imperial court before selling it to the Beast Alliance privately? ! This is what the Cold Beast Imperial Pavilion wants you to do by force! It even makes people in the world laugh at me, the Zixuan Dynasty, for not keeping our word!"
Kong Jianqing, a cabinet scholar, immediately spoke out and strongly opposed it.
"That's not necessarily the case! If they don't sell it today, there's no guarantee they won't sell it tomorrow. If the current generation of Beast Emperor Pavilion doesn't sell it, maybe their descendants will! If Beast Emperor Pavilion has a secret deal with the Beast Alliance, then It became a trap. Our Zixuan Dynasty spent a huge amount of military funds on establishing the Mammoth Corps and reduced investment in other aspects. As a result, the Beast Alliance also had the Mammoth Corps, making our huge investment in vain."
Minister Chai snorted coldly.
In the main hall, all the ministers were whispering to each other. There were many supporters and many opponents.
"The imperial court has already made a decision on this matter, and all the ministries and His Majesty have personally approved it. Why discuss it again! Is Master Chai worried that the Beast Emperor Pavilion has taken up too much of the share and squeezed out the interests of your Chai Mansion? This battle against the Beast Emperor Nine times out of ten, the pavilion will be defeated. The people of the Beast King Pavilion worked hard to resurrect the long-lost mammoth. You can't let them not even give you a little benefit like one-twelfth, right?! Everyone Your Excellency, you should consider the details of setting up a corps!"
Some ministers laughed.
"Some people want to eat their claws clean before they give up! If a little bit of oil and water leaks out and falls into other people's mouths, they will feel all kinds of jealousy in their hearts."
"It's not good to be so careless about food appearance!"
All the ministers burst into laughter.
Everyone knows that the imperial court plans to use six major beast masters to cultivate mammoths. The beast masters under the name of the Wusheng family in Chai Mansion want to take advantage of this matter.
However, there are many steps in forming the Mammoth Corps, and other forces also have different benefits. When it comes to cultivating mammoths, only the strongest martial sage families are qualified to participate.
"Hmph! You are talking as if all of you are saints who do not eat fireworks. The Chaifu family has a great cause and contributes an unknown amount of financial resources to the court every year. Is it easy to support so many people with such hard work!"
The man surnamed Chai suddenly blushed and snorted.
The middle-aged man in the purple-gold dragon emperor's robe sat alone on the high throne with an indifferent expression, listening to the quarrels among the ministers below, and his heart was filled with disappointment.
The thousand-year war between the Zixuan Dynasty and the Nanzhou Beast Alliance has been going on for many years. He wanted to see a powerful mammoth regiment formed as soon as possible to become a new iron fist of the Zixuan Dynasty.
However, some ministers were still focused on getting more benefits for their Martial Saint family, and tried their best to obstruct and delay in every possible way.
It's just that as the Emperor Zixuan, he can't go to war because of his likes and dislikes, and he can't do anything about these deep-rooted martial sage families who followed their ancestors down the river.
Just to decide on the formation of a Mammoth Beast King-level regiment, the various ministries of the imperial court spent nearly three months going through the process. Now because of some trivial details, he was still wrangling and obstructing him in every possible way. He could only let the courtiers quarrel slowly and come up with a result.
Emperor Zixuan's expression was indifferent, and one could not tell the slightest attitude. Seeing that the emperor did not express his opinions, the ministers continued to discuss the matter with their own opinions.
At this moment, suddenly, a beam of light shot into the sky outside Zixuan Palace.
This beam of light was so dazzling and bright that it shrouded the entire imperial city inside and outside, so that the entire Jinluan Palace was illuminated with colorful lights for a while.
"Is it the light of the Shenwu Star Tower? The whole body of the Shenwu Star Tower is radiating. This...could this be it?"
"Yes! I remember that when His Majesty was young, he rushed to the Shenwu Star Tower and climbed to the highest peak. The Star Tower once erupted with such dazzling light. In the past thousand years, the Pope and the leader of the Wenxin Sect have climbed to the Shenwu Star. There was this light on the top of the tower!"
"So... this is the fourth Martial King team to board the Shenwu Star Tower in a thousand years?!"
"Another peerless Martial King is going to appear?"
"Which big force is this that has a peerless figure?"
The ministers could not help but be astonished, and all looked towards the sky outside the Jinluan Hall in shock.
Anyone who understands the meaning of the top of Shenwu Star Tower will understand the profound meaning contained in it.
In the past thousand years, every team that climbed to the top of the Shenwu Star Tower had at least one unparalleled legendary Martial King-level giant born.
Even in the more distant history of the Zixuan Dynasty, which lasted for tens of thousands of years, almost all the teams that climbed to the top of the thousand floors of the Shenwu Star Tower, except for a handful of peerless geniuses who died on the way, performed some shocking feats. Great achievements.
This also means that hundreds of years from now, another human Martial Emperor giant who can influence the entire Shenwu Continent may appear. His status and influence can only rival that of Emperor Zixuan, Pope Zixuan and the leader of the Wenxin Sect.
Emperor Zixuan sat indifferently in the palace, gazing at the beam of light outside the palace with an eyebrow, and finally showed a strange and moved expression.
He motioned lightly to the eunuch in charge who was accompanying him.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The chief eunuch understood this and immediately sent a young eunuch out of the Golden Palace and flew towards the Shenwu Square to see who had climbed to the top of the Shenwu Star Tower.
After ten breaths of time, the little eunuch reported back.
The eunuch in charge noticed the weirdness on his face and reported to Emperor Zixuan: "Your Majesty, it has been found out that the Cao Mansion team listed on the Star Tower rankings has climbed to the thousandth floor of the Shenwu Star Tower and passed the Golden Jade The Test of the Turtle King."
"Which Cao Mansion?"
"The Cao Mansion's weapon-refining family is quite powerful in weapon refining. Cao Wei's Cao Mansion is working for His Majesty! However, among the five members of this Cao Mansion team, only three are Cao Mansion King Wu and weapon refiners. Wang, Cao Hong, Xing Chou and Tang Dapeng. The combat power of King Wu of the Cao Mansion has always been weak, and it should not be the contribution of the three of them. The other two are Gu Xinyue, the master of the Beast Emperor Pavilion, and Ye Fan, the deputy master of the Pavilion. Perhaps One of the two has extraordinary strength and led the team to the top of the Star Tower. Will Your Majesty summon them to see their strength?"
There was something strange about this, the chief eunuch explained in a low voice, and for a moment he couldn't figure out who it was.
"No need! In ten days, we will have a battle in the Void Arena, and we will naturally know their true strength."
Emperor Zixuan was surprised, his brows furrowed deeper, and he fell into silence.
This little-known Ye Fan is a martial arts cultivator from the Canglan Kingdom. He became famous in the world of animal control for resurrecting the ancient wild beast Mammoth.
A few months ago, I heard that there was some involvement with Chai Lanyi and Fu Huang Chai Jingdong from the Chai family. It is said that Ye Fan wrote two peerless runes, but it is difficult to tell whether this is true or not.
Now, he has actually climbed to the 1,000th floor of the Shenwu Star Tower and shown his legendary martial arts strength. This is very interesting!
This Ye Fan has touched many hearts.
"Ye Fan! Isn't he going to fight the Imperial Guards in the Void Arena soon? Is it him who led the Cao Mansion team to the Shenwu Star Tower?"
"His fighting power is so terrifying that he can lead Cao's team to the top of the tower? Doesn't that mean he really has a chance to defeat more than ten Royal Guards?!"
The ministers in the Jinluan Palace were all stunned. They felt that the direction of things seemed to be different from what they imagined. They were even more uneasy and eager to know more about the situation.
Kong Jianqing in the court was also shocked, but a little more happy than the other ministers.
In the Ancient Land of the Ancestral Gods, he had long known that Ye Fan and Gu Xinyue were very powerful in combat, but he didn't expect them to be so powerful.
Emperor Zixuan saw that the ministers were not interested in discussing politics, so he quickly ended today's court meeting and the ministers left one after another.
Emperor Zixuan sat in the empty hall for a long time, with a hollow look in his eyes, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
"Your Majesty, what are you thinking about? Are you thinking about the Star Tower again? Otherwise, I will go carefully check the details of those five people!"
The chief eunuch carefully looked at Emperor Zixuan's face and reminded him softly.
"It doesn't matter whether we check it or not. Even if the peerless Martial King wants to be promoted to Martial King, it will be hundreds of years later. I will know what I should know."
After a long time, Emperor Zixuan thought of another thing and asked the eunuch in charge: "By the way, how is my armor going?"
"Your Majesty, the preliminary design of the peerless battle armor has been completed. Cao Wei, the king of weapon refining, is quite strong in design. He actually found a suitable holy-level material to refine this battle armor. All you need to do is add the required materials. The holy level materials are ready, and the tempering can begin soon!"
The chief eunuch said quickly.
"Well, prepare the required holy-level materials as soon as possible! I am very tired of listening to these ministers bickering about trivial matters every day. When this peerless armor is built, I will take you to the ancient battlefield to relax."
Emperor Zixuan smiled lightly.
"Okay, when this peerless armor is built, Your Majesty will be invincible on the ancient battlefield. I will prepare for Your Majesty in advance during this time."
The chief eunuch was extremely happy.
