66: One enemy country

Sun Jie revealed a warm smile.

"Great Master Lu, I've consulted with the King, and our cooperation can continue. The King will collect Spiritual Artifacts for you throughout Qinming Kingdom."

"That's excellent."

Lu Xingchen then said, "I'll start providing you with third-grade rejuvenation pills next month, but for now, I'd like some bows."

With that, Lu Xingchen waved his sleeve, and ten xuan-rank spirit artifacts appeared on the table.

"Here are eight profound rank low grade Spiritual Artifacts and two xuan rank intermediate Spiritual Artifacts. Please help me exchange them for one hundred Spiritual Artifact bows and two profound rank low grade Medicine Cauldrons, Chairman Sun. I wonder if Chairman Sun can help?"

Sun Jie pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "We have profound rank low grade Medicine Cauldrons at our auction house, but the number of Spiritual Artifact bows is too many. Can you give me three days?"

"Yes. In that case, I will await Chairman Sun's good news!"

Lu Xingchen took two Medicine Cauldrons from Sun Jie and returned to the courtyard.

After closing the courtyard gate, Lin Jing asked in confusion, "Junior Brother Lu, don't you already have a Medicine Cauldron? What's the use of getting two more?"

Lu Xingchen smiled slightly.

"I need to improve my alchemy efficiency. After all, there are hundreds of people waiting for me. For first-grade and second-grade Medicinal Pills, I can multitask and refine three at once."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was greatly astonished.

Refining multiple Medicinal Pills at once—she had never heard of such a thing!

"Then you are truly impressive!"

In the following time, Lu Xingchen devoted himself to refining Medicinal Pills, making dozens of first-grade spirit ascension pills, second-grade boundary breaking pill (dan medicine), and second-grade Spirit Ascension Pills.

With Lu Xingchen's refining speed, it only took him a quarter of an hour to refine first-grade and second-grade Medicinal Pills. Coupled with his simultaneous control of three Medicine Cauldrons, his speed was incredibly fast.

Three days later, Lu Xingchen and Lin Jing returned to the auction house.

"Chairman Sun, have the Spiritual Artifact bows been sorted out?"

Lu Xingchen took a light sip of tea.

Sun Jie said with a smile, "Fortunately, I did not fail in my mission. I have collected them all for Great Master Lu."

With that, Sun Jie touched the Storage Ring on his hand.

One hundred Yellow Rank Advanced Spiritual Artifact bows appeared in the reception hall.

Lu Xingchen quickly put them into his Storage Ring and laughed, "Chairman's efficiency is excellent! In that case, I'll head back first. A month from now, Senior Sister Lin Jing will deliver one hundred third-grade rejuvenation pills!"

Sun Jie smiled and said, "In that case, I will await your good news."

Lu Xingchen and Lin Jing left Xinducheng, rode Xiao You, and rushed towards Dayan Kingdom.

On Xiao You's back, Lu Xingchen also continuously refined Medicinal Pills.

He knew that it was impossible to make those soldiers believe him with just words.

He had to show them something tangible!

Lin Jing looked at the busy Lu Xingchen with some heartache.

"Junior Brother Lu, you're working too hard. Now it's as if you alone have to support that Archer Squadron of over two hundred people. I'm afraid you'll get sick."

Lu Xingchen gave a bitter smile, "It's not over 200 people, but over five hundred. I plan to increase the Archer Squadron's numbers to five hundred so we can contend with Tianhui Kingdom's Martial Master Brigade."

Upon hearing this, Lin Jing was even more surprised.

"Over five hundred people? So many Medicinal Pills, so many Spiritual Artifacts, all coming from you alone. Are you trying to kill yourself?"

Lu Xingchen gave a bitter smile, "There's no other way. Dayan Kingdom is at a critical juncture of life and death. As the Young General, I must go all out to help Dayan Kingdom overcome this crisis."

Lin Jing gave Lu Xingchen a thumbs up.

"Whatever you ask, as long as it's within my ability, I, Lin Jing, will do my best!"

Lu Xingchen smiled and said, "I have something to ask of Senior Sister Lin Jing right now."

"Tell me."

"From now on, I won't go to Qinming Kingdom. For the third-grade rejuvenation pills I refine, I'll ask Senior Sister Lin Jing to deliver them for me and retrieve the Spiritual Artifact bows."

"A small matter, just running errands."

As soon as he returned to Dayan Kingdom, Lu Xingchen immediately found Yun Li.

She was training the Archer Squadron at the firing range.

Upon seeing Lu Xingchen, everyone stopped their movements.

Yun Li chuckled, "How is it? Lu Xingchen, have you found a supplier?"

"Of course, with me, Lu Xingchen, taking action, how could I return empty-handed?"

With that, Lu Xingchen touched his Storage Ring, and one hundred Yellow Rank Advanced Spiritual Artifact bows appeared on the firing range.

The soldiers were all shocked.

"Holy cow, Spiritual Artifacts! So many Spiritual Artifacts!"

"This is too exaggerated, isn't it? The boss only left for a few days and brought back so many Spiritual Artifacts!"

"Although they are only Yellow Rank Advanced, they are still Spiritual Artifacts! If one can use them skillfully, even a Martial Master expert might not be unbeatable!"

"I originally thought it was impossible to contend with Tianhui Kingdom's Martial Master Brigade, but now it seems the boss is truly serious about this!"

Yun Li was also slightly surprised.

"It seems you're very well prepared. You're not planning to equip everyone with a Spiritual Artifact, are you?"

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "Two. One Spiritual Artifact bow and one defensive Spiritual Artifact."

"Awesome! I understand now why Alchemists hold such high status. A high-level Alchemist can even contend against an entire nation. You are now using your strength alone to contend against the entire Fengming Kingdom."

Lu Xingchen chuckled, "How has the training been these past few days?"

"Only a few days have passed, how much change do you expect? I've eliminated some untalented individuals, recruited some new people, and training has just begun. It will take at least a month to form combat power."

Lu Xingchen nodded slightly, "A month it is. I trust you!"

Then Lu Xingchen faced the many soldiers and said in a deep voice, "Those with Cultivation above nine-star Martial Artist, step forward!"

Thirty people stepped out.

"I will give each of you a first-grade spirit ascension pill, a second-grade boundary breaking pill (dan medicine), and a second-grade Spirit Ascension Pill. After you all consume them, your Realm can quickly advance to second-grade Martial Master. At that time, even if you face Tianhui Kingdom's Martial Master Brigade, you will have the power to fight."

Upon hearing this, the entire field erupted in an uproar.

"Holy cow, mass-producing Martial Master experts! The boss is too amazing!"

"To be able to follow the Young General is the luckiest thing in my life!"

"With the Young General here, there is hope for Dayan Kingdom's revival!"

Lu Xingchen didn't waste time and directly distributed the Medicinal Pills.

The 30 people who received the Medicinal Pills looked at Lu Xingchen with admiration and fanaticism.

The other soldiers were also incredibly envious.

Lu Xingchen continued, "Everyone else, work harder! As long as you can Cultivate to the Realm of nine-star Martial Artist, I will give you all three Medicinal Pills for free."

Upon hearing this, everyone was extremely excited.

"As long as I can Cultivate to nine-star Martial Artist, I can achieve a class Breakthrough!"

"Such a great opportunity, and I actually stumbled upon it!"

"Brothers, work hard and make the Young General poor!"

"If I had to Cultivate on my own, I might never be able to Breakthrough to Martial Master in my entire life. Now the opportunity is right in front of me, I must seize it!"
