"Greetings, Celestial King! Greetings, Lord Marquis Shenjian! "
After these people bowed to the Celestial King, they all bowed to Luo Zheng.
According to the rules of the Heaven Court, Luo Zheng was a Marquis. His status was second only to the Celestial King and was equal to the Ten Great Elders.
The status of these generals was much lower than Luo Zheng's.
However, these people were the elites of the Imperial Army. Some of them were not convinced that Luo Zheng had been conferred the title of Marquis at such a young age.
Therefore, when they bowed, some of them were a little perfunctory.
The young general who had gone to welcome Luo Zheng was among them.
Moreover, among these people, only four of them were at the advanced stage of the Earth Dharma Realm. This young general was one of them.
"It seems that the Celestial King wants to choose from these people to be the generals of the other four armies."
Luo Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He finally understood why the Yellow Heaven Immortal King had summoned these people.
"Marquis Shenjian, these are the experts of the Imperial Army. The generals of the remaining four armies of the Yellow Heavenly Guards will be chosen from them. What do you think?"
The Yellow Heavenly King looked at Luo Zheng with a smile and said.
"What! The Celestial King wants to choose someone from among us to be in charge of the Imperial Army! "
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. This is great news. Although the Imperial Army has a noble status and is extremely comfortable, they need to guard the Yellow Heavenly King Realm. Every day, they are under the Celestial King's watch. It is extremely difficult to get any benefits. It would be great if they were sent out!"
"Being in charge of the Imperial Army means that you have great power. Many people will want to curry favor with you. It is definitely a good opportunity to make a fortune!"
Hearing the Yellow Heavenly King's words, the Imperial Army generals were immediately overjoyed. They were secretly calculating in their hearts.
Some of them could not help but show joy on their faces.
Although there were many Earth Dharma Realm experts in the Yellow Heavenly King Realm, there were still many of them and they were not too valuable.
However, if they left the Yellow Heavenly Court, an Earth Dharma Realm expert could become an overlord. If they were to join the Yellow Heavenly Guards, the benefits would be great.
The other four people who were at the advanced stage of the Earth Dharma Realm were even more ecstatic.
The Yellow Heavenly King had made it very clear that he wanted to choose the generals of the four armies.
The generals of the Heavenly Heavenly Guards had always been in the advanced stage of the Earth Dharma Realm.
Among the Imperial Army Generals that the Yellow Heaven Immortal King had gathered, only the four of them were at the advanced stage of the Earth Law Realm. His intention was obvious.
"Seems like these are all experts carefully nurtured by immortal kings. I can see that many of them have the strength to challenge those of a higher realm. Naturally, this is not a problem."
Luo Zheng said with a smile.
He didn't care who the Yellow Heavenly King wanted to place in the army. In any case, the Immortal King had already agreed to let Xue Mu, Yang Hao, and the black yak serve as the generals of each army.
Adding on the five people he was secretly controlling, there were eight people in total, a third of the Imperial Guards' strength.
"Since Marquis Shenjian has no objections and you are also in charge of defense, you will be the one to choose the four generals."
The Yellow Heavenly King smiled at Luo Zheng.
"This Yellow Heavenly King is truly a sly old fox. She belongs to him, yet he's letting me choose. These quotas were snatched from the Ji Clan, Wang Clan, Zhou Clan, and some other forces. When the time comes, these forces will find him and push the blame to me, and he will be able to shirk all responsibility. "
Luo Zheng smiled bitterly in his heart. He immediately understood the Yellow Heavenly King's intentions. "Although I have too many debts to worry about right now, if you want to push all the blame onto me, I won't let you do as you wish."
"Many thanks for the Immortal King's trust."
He nodded and swept his gaze across the faces of the ten-odd Imperial Guards. He coldly said, "Report your names!"
"Wei Yongliang!"
"Gao You!"
"Bai Yuanjun!"
"Kong Yuan …"
The Imperial Guards all knew that this was a rare opportunity that couldn't be missed. They hurriedly pulled themselves together and reported their names.
"Wei Yongliang, step forward!"
"Gao You, step forward!"
"Bai Yuanjun, step forward!"
Luo Zheng called out three names in succession. They were all late-stage Earth Cultivation Realm cultivators.
Seeing this, the other mid-stage Earth Cultivation Realm Imperial Guards all revealed looks of disappointment.
Although they had already expected that the Immortal King would choose the four late-stage Earth Cultivation Realm cultivators, they still couldn't help but hold on to a sliver of hope.
Now that they saw that Luo Zheng had indeed chosen late-stage Earth Cultivation Realm cultivators, the others felt that there was no hope.
At this moment, the young general who had welcomed Luo Zheng had a smug look on his face.
This person was Kong Yuan. Of the four late-stage Earth Cultivation Realm cultivators, he was the only one whose name had not been called out by Luo Zheng.
"Hahaha, it looks like the last quota will definitely be mine. As long as I can command an army, the cities of the various regions under my control will definitely try to curry favor with me. Who knows how many benefits I will receive."
