Tensei guessed that the Prime Minister didn't dare to keep him in the Prime Minister Mansion. Now that he saw the Prime Minister and Grand Commander Xuan Zhangming standing together, he was even more certain.
Sure enough, as Xuan Zhangming read out the names one by one, Ning Baisheng's name appeared.
"Haha, Ning Baisheng, you've been in my mansion for hundreds of years and now you've been valued by the Grand Commander. This is my Prime Minister Mansion's blessing. Why haven't you thanked the Grand Commander yet?" Prime Minister Bing Wumou laughed.
Of the dozen plus people that came with Tensei, only Tensei was left behind. For a time, all of them felt ashamed. How had they attacked him before? Now, they had been ruthlessly slapped in the face!
One by one, they left dejectedly. The Grand Commander led the eight people he had named towards the Fire Imperial Palace. Tensei glanced around and saw that Bai Lihun, who had nearly obtained a divine skill, was also among them.
"Although the eight of you are only at the Divine Lord realm, your talents are not bad. If you can stay in the palace, you will definitely have a bright future ahead of you. Are you all willing?" Xuan Zhangming asked as they walked.
Everyone quickly responded. To be valued by Xuan Zhangming was an amazing matter. They were all looking forward to it. Moreover, they were about to see the Fire Emperor. If they could be valued by the Fire Emperor, that would be even more amazing.
As everyone waited expectantly, Xuan Zhangming said, "Especially you, Ning Baisheng. You are the only one in a thousand years to obtain a divine skill from the Heavenly Inscription Monument. I fear that your future is limitless."
Tensei quickly looked at Xuan Zhangming. He couldn't help but ask, "My Lord, how did you know I obtained a divine skill?"
The others were all shocked. They all thought that no one had obtained a divine skill, but they didn't think that Tensei had already obtained one!
Xuan Zhangming smiled. "After obtaining a cultivation method or divine skill from the Heavenly Inscription Monument, a small phenomenon will appear for a short period of time. It's just that none of you noticed it."
Tensei let out a breath of relief. If that was the case, then although Xuan Zhangming knew he had obtained a divine skill, he didn't know that the Heavenly Inscription Monument had already been subdued by him.
If they discovered that the Heavenly Inscription Monument already had an owner, that would be far from good.
As they spoke, they arrived outside the hall. Xuan Zhangming bowed respectfully toward the hall and said, "Xuan Zhangming greets Your Majesty!"
"Rise!" A faint voice came from the main hall. It sounded faintly discernible, but it was full of majesty!
"Thank you, Your Majesty. This time, I chose eight people and one of them obtained a divine skill from the Heaven Inscription Monument!" Xuan Zhangming hurriedly said. The Fire Emperor hadn't summoned him yet so he didn't dare to step into the main hall.
"Mm, I understand. Their cultivation levels are still low. Arrange for them to be placed in the army first. When their cultivation levels increase in the future, we will make other arrangements." That dignified voice sounded again.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Xuan Zhang Ming led the group of people away from the Fire Emperor Palace and said, "What a coincidence. It seems like His Majesty isn't in a good mood and doesn't wish to see you."
Without waiting for a reply, Xuan Zhang Ming continued, "I will arrange for all of you to join the Fire Emperor's Army. Whether or not you are able to achieve anything in the army depends entirely on you. Are you willing?"
Tensei raised his eyebrows slightly. What kind of situation was this? I can't accept this arrangement!
The other seven people were extremely willing. It was obvious that they understood the Fire Emperor's Army very well. Their faces were all filled with excitement.
As if he could see that Tensei wasn't willing, Xuan Zhang Ming laughed, "As for Ning Bai Sheng, I have other arrangements for him!"
As he spoke, Xuan Zhang Ming called for another group of people to lead the other seven people away. He then turned to Tensei and asked, "Do you know the duties of the Fire Emperor's Army and the Imperial Guards?"
"Please enlighten me, Your Excellency!" Tensei didn't know much about the Fire Dominion and thus could only ask for guidance.
Xuan Zhang Ming led the group forward again, "The Fire Emperor's Army is also known as the Fire God's Army. They are responsible for external attacks. Most of them are stationed at the borders to prevent the other six regions from attacking our Fire Dominion. The Imperial Guards are responsible for the internal security of the Fire Dominion. For example, the matter of you destroying the Hundred Dragons Mountains half a year ago and enforcing the law in the Imperial City. Those are the responsibilities of the Imperial Guards. "
Tensei nodded his head slightly. It seemed like the Imperial Guards were more relaxed and were mainly responsible for maintaining order in the Imperial City.
Thinking of this, Tensei cupped his fists and asked, "Does Your Excellency want to arrange for me to be part of the Imperial Guards?"
Xuan Zhang Ming laughed, "Your potential is extraordinary. However, your cultivation level is still low. If you were to join the Fire God's Army and encounter the other six regions' armies, I'm afraid it would be difficult for you to survive. Being part of the Imperial Guards is relatively safer."
"If it were someone else, I would naturally throw them into the Fire God's Army and let them train them. However, you are different. Your potential is heaven-defying. If something were to happen to you, it would definitely be a loss to the Fire Dominion." Xuan Zhang Ming looked at Tensei deeply before continuing.
The Imperial Guards were naturally stationed in the Imperial City. To Tensei, this was the best thing that could happen. After all, he still had to think of a way to save Bing Ling's mother. Being in the Imperial City was the most convenient thing for him.
Moreover, with the cover of the Imperial Guards, it would be easier for him to do things.
Although Xuan Zhang Ming didn't say it directly, Tensei already understood that he wanted to arrange for him to be part of the Imperial Guards.
Soon, Xuan Zhang Ming brought Tensei to a corner of the Imperial Palace. At the tip of his finger, there was a huge training field and several buildings. Tyrannical auras filled the air.
"This is the headquarters of the Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guards are directly under His Majesty's command. Every member is wearing golden armor. In the Imperial City, even if you see a Rank One official, you don't have to bow. You can just cup your fists." Xuan Zhang Ming pointed at the camp in front of him and smiled.
"So it's the Great Commander. Please excuse me for not going out to meet you." As he spoke, a middle-aged man with the same "criminal" mark on the left side of his face flew over. His golden armor was very eye-catching.
Xuan Zhang Ming cupped his fists, "Feng Guang, I have brought you a newcomer. Thank you for your trouble."
"Ning Baisheng, this is the head of the Imperial Guards. In the future, listen to his arrangements. When the time is right, I will report to His Majesty and bring you to meet him." Xuan Zhang Ming finished speaking and nodded slightly at Feng Guang before leaving.
"You're Ning Baisheng?" Before Tensei could say anything, several dozen people rushed out of the camp. They were all wearing golden armor. Under the sunlight, the armor shone with a dazzling light. However, these people all had hostile expressions.
"A Rank One Divine Lord is the lowest among us. Are you sure you're the one who destroyed the Bailong Mountain?" A burly man took a few steps forward. His thunderous voice exploded in Tensei's ears.
"Haha, I think it must be a rumor spread by those people from the Ministry of Justice. It's impossible for this kid to do something that even our Imperial Guards couldn't do." Everyone laughed.
Tensei glanced around. A small portion of the people in front of him were already Divine Kings. The others were all Rank Four or Five Divine Lords. His Rank One Divine Lord cultivation was indeed the lowest.
"Kid, we were still thinking about chatting with you one day. I didn't think the heavens would have eyes and send you here so quickly!" The burly man rubbed his fists and walked over. He snorted coldly and said, "Since you destroyed the Bailong Mountain, let me see how capable you are!"
Tensei frowned. That matter was simply a humiliation to the Imperial Guards. Now that they saw him, of course they wouldn't be polite!
