Royal Palace.
Outside the magnificent palace, countless elite royal guards lined up neatly on the jade steps, causing the luxurious palace to exude a sharp killing intent.
Inside the palace.
On top of the nine jade steps, there was a luxurious and domineering throne.
The Southern Summer King, who was wearing a golden royal robe and a majestic crown, sat on the throne, appearing dignified without being angry.
On the throne next to the Southern Summer King, there was a beautiful young lady in the prime of her youth.
This young lady was about fifteen or sixteen years old. Her facial features were exquisite, and her skin was fair. She wore a silver-white princess crown and a luxurious aristocratic dress. An exquisite belt was tied tightly around her small waist, forming a cute bow.
Her entire body exuded the aura of an aristocrat. No matter how one looked at her, she was perfect, without a single flaw. Even compared to Yun Ruoxi, she was definitely not inferior.
Without a doubt, this young lady, who exuded the aura of an aristocrat, was the Southern Summer Princess, Nangong Yan.
On the seventh jade step below the throne, there were three luxurious and majestic thrones. The Three Rulers sat on these thrones.
And below the ninth jade step, the civil and military officials of the Southern Summer King were gathered, neatly lined up in two rows.
And Murong Tuohai, who had once become sworn brothers with Lin Yun, stood at the front of the left row. This meant that his position was the highest after the Southern Summer King and the Three Rulers, and he was the head of the civil and military officials.
After everyone went to court, they did not say anything, as if they were waiting for someone to arrive.
After waiting for a while, the figure of a black-clothed young man slowly appeared from the entrance of the palace.
Without a doubt, this black-clothed young man was today's main character, Lin Yun.
The moment Lin Yun appeared, the eyes of the civil and military officials all fell on Lin Yun.
And the Southern Summer Princess, Nangong Yan, also looked curiously at this young man, who had defeated Prince Namgong.
Although Nangong Yan didn't have a good impression of Prince Namgong, she still acknowledged his strength.
Nangong Yan had always believed that Prince Namgong was the most talented genius in the Southern Summer Academy and that he was an existence that could not be defeated.
When she found out that Prince Namgong had been defeated by a young man named Lin Yun, she was so shocked that she couldn't believe it.
While she was shocked, she was also very curious about Lin Yun. She really wanted to meet this young man who defeated Prince Namgong. She wanted to see what kind of young man he was.
Today, she finally saw the young man who had created a miracle. This young man was younger than she had imagined.
After Lin Yun arrived, Eunuch Li took a step forward, picked up the edict, and read it in front of everyone.
"By the will of the heavens, the Southern Summer King declares: Recently, a beast tide has erupted in my Southern Summer. The Yu Province has suffered a severe disaster, the people have been plunged into misery and suffering, and the land has been dyed red for thousands of miles. Fortunately, the brave warrior, Lin Yun, has supported the fall of the Southern Building and turned the tide. My heart is very comforted. "
"In order to commend Lin Yun's great achievements, this King hereby announces that Lin Yun will be conferred the title of a second-grade military rank and will be in charge of an army of 100,000. He will be one of the Ten Great Generals of the Southern Summer Kingdom, with the title of 'General of Peace'."
As soon as Eunuch Li finished reading the edict, the entire hall was in an uproar. The civil and military officials present were all discussing it.
Following that, countless officials stood up and tried to persuade the Southern Summer King.
"Your Majesty, the Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom have always been held by experts like King Wu. Although Lin Yun is talented, he has yet to truly mature. Without sufficient strength and experience, I'm afraid he won't be qualified. "
"The Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom hold a large number of troops and are related to the safety of the Southern Summer Kingdom. Such an important position cannot be handed over to a youth. Your Majesty, please reconsider! "
"This general believes that regardless of strength or experience, General Dongfang Hao is above Lin Yun. Letting him replace the Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom is more suitable than Lin Yun. "
The officials present were all direct descendants of the three great families.
Different from the structure of other kingdoms, the Southern Summer King Kingdom was not monopolized by the royal family. Instead, it was supported by the three great families.
Without the support of the three great families, the Southern Summer King would only be an empty shell.
Therefore, any decision made by the Southern Summer King had to take into consideration the feelings of the three great families. Even if the members of the three great families opposed it, the Southern Summer King could not do anything to them.
At this time, Murong Tuohai stood up and said a few good words for Lin Yun, "This official believes that Lin Yun is talented and has outstanding strength. It is not impossible for him to be qualified for the position of the Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom."
The Southern Summer King nodded his head and then directly asked for the opinions of the three rulers, "What do the three rulers think?"
The three rulers were the representatives of the three great families. As long as these three old fellows were convinced, it was equivalent to convincing the civil and military officials.
The Country Guarding Ruler was the first to express his opinion, "Lin Yun is indeed a heavenly genius and his cultivation talent is unparalleled. However, he is still too young. Conferring him the title of the Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom now is too rash. This official suggests that Lin Yun be conferred the title of an ordinary general first. "
The Country Guarding Ruler continued, "In terms of cultivation, Lin Yun indeed has nothing to say. However, in terms of strategy, he is still inexperienced and still lacks. "
"The Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom not only need to have a strong military force, but also know how to fight and deploy strategically. It can be said that he has both wisdom and courage. Those who are brave but not astute will not be qualified for this position. "
The Country Guarding Ruler nodded his head in agreement, "Our Southern Summer Kingdom is full of talents and there are countless martial arts experts. Any expert from the three great families would be far above Lin Yun in terms of strength and strategy. Why must our king choose Lin Yun? "
"How can you be so sure that Lin Yun is brave but not astute?" The Southern Summer King knew that these three old fellows would not agree so easily.
The Country Guarding Ruler and the Southern Summer King were comrades. He was an upright and selfless person. He did not agree to conferring Lin Yun the title of the Ten Great Armies for the sake of the bigger picture and for the sake of the Southern Summer Kingdom.
As for the Country Guarding Ruler and the Country Guarding Ruler, they were completely against Lin Yun for their own benefit. Their goal was to have a member of their family take up a position in the Ten Great Armies.
Hearing the words of the Southern Summer King, the Country Guarding Ruler and the Country Guarding Ruler were deep in thought and began to make their own calculations.
The Country Guarding Ruler was the first to speak, "Since our king thinks so highly of Lin Yun, why not let the civil and military officials of the court compete with Lin Yun?"
The Country Guarding Ruler hurriedly added, "The Ten Great Armies of the Southern Summer Kingdom are very important to the Southern Summer Kingdom and cannot be careless and hastily decided. Letting the civil and military officials compete with Lin Yun can also be a test for Lin Yun. "
The Country Guarding Ruler continued, "The Country Guarding Ruler's words are reasonable. If Lin Yun can pass the test and become one of the Ten Great Armies, we have nothing to say. But if he cannot pass the test, how can he be qualified to be one of the Ten Great Armies? "
The Country Guarding Ruler did not say anything and only nodded his head. Clearly, he felt that doing this would be more responsible for the Southern Summer Kingdom.
The Southern Summer King did not say anything and only looked at Lin Yun, as if asking if Lin Yun had the courage to accept the challenge.
