The Gold Armor Planet had numerous mountain ranges, one of which was extremely huge. It was called Yunlai Mountain Range.
The mountain range was more than three million li long, with hundreds of large branches and countless small branches. In the south and north of the mountain range were two military camps: Yunlai Barracks and Deep Valley Barracks.
Yunlai Barracks and Deep Valley Barracks were both external barracks, and the number of soldiers stationed there was not fixed.
Normally, a barracks would have around fifty thousand soldiers. However, the external barracks had to have two hundred thousand soldiers. This was mainly because the external soldiers could enter and leave the Gold Armor Planet at will. In a year, they would spend very little time on the planet. If there were two hundred thousand soldiers, then there would be one hundred and fifty thousand outside and fifty thousand on the planet.
The highest rank in Yunlai Barracks was general, and there was more than one of them. Of course, there would only be one general at a time, and to become a general, one had to be at least a seventh layer Life and Death Realm titled monarch.
On the huge training field, hundreds of soldiers were exchanging pointers. Gold Armor Planet was a life planet, and the energy repulsion was very severe. Although these soldiers were all Life and Death Kings, their destructive power was very limited. They simply couldn't damage the training field, which was completely paved with special metals and covered with countless arrays.
Buzz!
A beam of light shone — it was the light of a teleportation array.
Ye Chen could clearly see a team of five hundred people wrapped within the light. They were clearly preparing for battle.
At the center of the barracks was a large group of grand buildings. These buildings were arranged in a circular pattern, looking like a hollow pillar that was more than a thousand meters tall.
In fact, this pillar was the business district of the barracks. There were restaurants, weapon shops, pill shops, material shops, and all sorts of high-end shops. It was a very prosperous place.
Thousand Arrow King explained, "The population of Yunlai Barracks is around two hundred thousand, and there are dozens of generals. The bosses of the business district are these generals. Of course, there are also some relatively powerful commanders. Don't look down on this business district. It earns a frightening amount of yuan stones every year. After all, the soldiers in the barracks are all Life and Death Kings. The consumption of one of them is equivalent to the consumption of hundreds of ordinary martial artists. If you can own a shop, it's like owning a hen that can lay golden eggs."
"Indeed."
Ye Chen faintly nodded. There were more than five million Life and Death Kings on the entire Gold Armor Planet. Apart from other military planets, there was no other planet that could earn more yuan stones than this place. Perhaps any random shop would be enough to make people fight to the death.
"Can't you build a shop outside the barracks?"
Ye Chen suddenly asked.
Sima Fei explained, "Aside from the military camps and cities, no shops are allowed to be built on military planets. Anyone who discovers it will be punished according to military law. Although you can open a shop in the cities, there are just too many shops there, and there are too many choices. It is not like the military camps, where there is only one business district, and the customers are all Life and Death Realm warriors."
In addition to the soldiers, there were more "ordinary people" on Gold Armor Planet. "Ordinary people" all lived in cities and towns, and their numbers were in the trillions. Ye Chen had long known this.
"Come, let's go to the Sun Moon Restaurant for a drink."
Yuanhong, who loved to drink, suggested.
Sun Moon Restaurant.
It was one of the three great restaurants in Cloud Gathering Barracks. It was seven stories tall, and the higher the floor, the better the wine sold.
On the seventh floor of the restaurant …
"Tsk tsk, this Flaming Sun Wine and Moonlight Wine are not inferior to the Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine. They have a different taste." Yuanhong gulped down a mouthful of wine and said in a carefree manner.
Lu Wenjie, who rarely spoke, said, "The boss behind Sun Moon Restaurant, Snow Air Emperor, used to be a member of God Paradise. This Flaming Sun Wine and Moonlight Wine were developed based on the Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine."
"En." Zhang Yinyin nodded, "Snow Air Emperor is also a master brewer. If it were someone else, it would be impossible to brew Flaming Sun Wine and Moonlight Wine based on the characteristics of the Magma Wine and Ice Sea Wine."
Snow Air Emperor was one of the generals of Cloud Gathering Barracks. She was a rather legendary woman. Like the seven others, she also came from God Paradise. However, she ultimately failed to become a battle emperor. After her cultivation base broke through to the seventh layer, she was transported out of God Paradise.
There were not many guests on the seventh floor. There were only a dozen tables and thirty people.
"Have you heard? Blue Fox King led a troop of one thousand people and annihilated four thousand enemies. He himself was promoted to commander because of this battle."
"Very powerful! However, Blue Fox King is not the only one in the limelight. Scarlet Sky King led a thousand people out last month, and when he returned this month, he also annihilated three thousand eight hundred enemies."
"Sigh, I'm still a centurion. I wonder when I'll be able to become a commander. At the very least, I'll be able to become a minor commander."
"You, take your time! If you want to become a minor commander, you'll have to kill a minor commander and ten centurions. It's not easy. "
At the next table, a few soldiers were chatting.
After listening to their conversation, the Thousand Arrow King smiled and said, "The Blue Fox King is a very powerful and resourceful person. Last year, I worked with him as his assistant. That time, we also killed more than three thousand enemies."
Minor commanders could lead five hundred people, and major commanders could lead one thousand. Normally, when a troop had one thousand people, a minor commander would be the assistant of a major commander and would listen to his commands.
"You're making my heart itch. Why don't we set off with our troops today?"
Yuanhong had always been a battle maniac. He licked his lips and said excitedly.
"No rush. We'll move in a few days."
Myriad Arrow King shook his head.
"Everyone, this is a gift from our boss."
At this moment, a servant walked over with a round tray. On the round tray were fourteen bottles of wine.
Ye Chen glanced at the attendant. The attendant was not a Life and Death King, and his cultivation base was at early Sea of Soul realm.
Thinking about it, no Life and Death King would be willing to work under someone else, not to mention being an attendant of a restaurant. He reckoned that the clerks in the barracks were all recruited, or came from the owner's sect or family.
"Your boss?"
Myriad Arrow King raised his head in astonishment.
"Yes, our boss will be here in a moment."
The attendant put down the tray and turned to leave.
Not long after, the restaurant's boss arrived. She was a beautiful young woman who seemed to be in her twenties, not much older than the rest. However, the aura emanating from her body was as deep as the ocean, profound and frightening. Her cultivation base had clearly reached the seventh layer, a true titled monarch.
"Snow Air Emperor."
Myriad Arrow King blurted out.
Snow Air Emperor walked over with a beaming smile. Waving her right hand, the insignia on the back of her hand was faintly discernible. She smiled and said, "Everyone comes from Paradise of God. This can be considered fate."
She wouldn't receive ordinary people. Only people from the Paradise of God had the right to receive her. She knew that people from the Paradise of God weren't ordinary people. If they were given enough time, their achievements wouldn't be low.
"These two are …?" Apart from Lu Wenjie and Ye Chen, Snow Air Emperor had seen the other members of Demon Hunter Squad before. She couldn't help but ask Myriad Arrow King.
Myriad Arrow King introduced, "This is Lu Wenjie. He entered Paradise of God less than twenty years ago, yet he has already become a quasi-emperor. He is a rare genius. This is Ye Chen, and he is even more amazing. He entered Paradise of God less than ten years ago, yet he has also become a quasi-emperor. Moreover, he is not an ordinary quasi-emperor, but the strongest one."
He still didn't know that Ye Chen had already reached the tenth floor of War God Pagoda and possessed the strength of a battle emperor.
"Oh!"
Snow Air Emperor's eyes lit up. If Lu Wenjie's talent had surprised her, then Ye Chen's talent had astonished her. He had become the strongest quasi-emperor in less than ten years. How much potential did he have?
"It's my honor to meet you."
Snow Air Emperor didn't have the arrogance of a titled monarch or general. Of course, it would be foolish to put on airs in front of such a genius with a bright future.
"Me too."
"It's an honor to meet you."
Lu Wenjie and Ye Chen nodded.
Since they were all from Paradise of God, everyone chatted happily. The others on the seventh floor of the restaurant were dumbfounded. They all knew Snow Air Emperor, but they had never seen Snow Air Emperor lower himself to receive guests.
"In three months, I plan to lead fifty thousand people to the Xuanwu Ruins. If you have time, you can choose to join me."
After chatting for a while, Snow Air Emperor suddenly said.
"Lead fifty thousand people?"
Myriad Arrow King and the others were shocked.
Ye Chen's brows also twitched.
According to military rank, the number of people one could lead was different. Generally, a centurion could lead one hundred soldiers, a lieutenant five hundred, a general one thousand, a commander five thousand, and a general fifty thousand.
Ten thousand people was like a sea of people, not to mention fifty thousand Life and Death Kings.
As for the Xuanwu Ruins, it was a ruin in the northern part of Black Tortoise Starfield. There used to be countless stars there, but because of war, countless stars had been destroyed, turning it into a wasteland. As time passed, it became the Xuanwu Ruins.
"Right." Snow Air Emperor nodded, "You should have time, right?"
"Yes."
Myriad Arrow King smiled.
The more people he fought, the more people he would kill, and his military rank would naturally rise faster. For example, in an enemy army of 50,000 people, there would be one general, ten commanders, fifty lieutenants, a hundred lieutenants, and five hundred centurions. He was currently a minor lieutenant and had already killed three minor lieutenants. As long as he killed two more minor lieutenants and a major commander, he would become a major commander and his military rank would rise by one rank.
"Alright. At that time, you must stay in the camp. Otherwise, you'll miss it."
Snow Air Emperor nodded.
After Snow Air Emperor left, Zhang Yinyin said enviously, "Becoming a general is truly awe-inspiring! You can lead fifty thousand troops."
Sima Fei chuckled, "Generals rarely go out. Snow Air Emperor hasn't led troops to battle for at least ten years. It seems like the generals in the camp take turns going out to battle."
"Right." Liu Di said, "Yunlai Camp is an external camp with a dozen generals. If they were to go out to battle together, they wouldn't be able to provide so many soldiers. You should know that even a centurion needs permission from the top. It's not like they can just leave with their men. Generals need permission from the Grand Marshal."
Through chatting, Ye Chen gained a better understanding of the military. For example, a centurion could only lead one hundred people at most. Before leaving, they would have to apply to the top and report the names of all the members. Only after receiving permission could they head to the Black Tortoise Ruins. Otherwise, they would be punished by military law, which was extremely serious.
Generals going out to battle was even more impressive, as they needed permission from the Grand Marshal. After all, fifty thousand was not a small number, and they couldn't afford to lose it.
