Chapter 721: Chapter 721: White Tiger!

"Then let them come!" Tang Zhong declared.

At these words, everyone regarded Tang Zhong as if he were insane.

Displeasure mounted in their hearts. Was this guy out of his mind to just let those people come? What was the point of inviting them over? Wasn’t that seeking death?

The faces around him darkened—this fellow truly had no idea how his words caused others’ backs to ache from frustration.

Quite a few people stood up immediately, ready to censure Tang Zhong. How could he speak so recklessly?

"Inviting those above—that’s akin to courting annihilation, isn’t it?"

"Exactly, once those people arrive, they won’t manage anything. Just thinking about it terrifies me."

"Shut your mouths!" They had barely had the chance to speak when suddenly, the old Military Governor Peng Yuan shouted explosively.

Hearing his command, everyone fell silent.

Old Military Governor Peng Yuan then continued to roar, "Are you not men of Xuan Country? Do you have to be such cowards? Show some damn backbone! We should fight fearlessly, not wet our pants in fear!"

No one dared to speak against the old Military Governor, whom they all deeply admired. During the Second World War, Peng Yuan had been a formidable general.

Peng Yuan then looked at Tang Zhong and burst out laughing, "That’s the spirit! Now that’s what I call a true man of Xuan Country. I like your character, kid!"

"Thank you for the compliment, old Military Governor," Tang Zhong said, respectfully.

He had also come to admire the old Military Governor’s character.

Then, turning around to address the people present, the old Military Governor’s gaze lost the admiration it held for Tang Zhong.

"I know you all think you’re something special, and sure, you might be, but let me tell you a story!"

"When I fought against the people of Bei Country, I told their commanders and various team leaders straight up—bring it on. All I had were millet and rifles, and still, we sent them running with tails between their legs!"

None spoke. Peng Yuan had lived through that battle, earning the respect of everyone present.

"Let me tell you frankly: in that battle, Bei Country had its notable figures as well. In the end, didn’t we, Xuan Country, prevail? We have conquered them before; is there really anything to be afraid of now?"

Hearing these words, the crowd relaxed—a victory like that would be incredibly satisfying.

"So, what’s there to fear? We are a Great Country; do we fear a handful of people?" said the old Military Governor Peng Yuan.

Those who had earlier thought Tang Zhong’s words too outlandish now lowered their heads in embarrassment.

"I haven’t read many books, and I don’t know much, but I do know this: you have to show your own style, and your own attitude. This kid Tang Zhong, I like him a lot. If those bastards from Bei Country hadn’t surrendered, I would have led troops to invade the Bei Country Peninsula... I’ve always wanted to wage war on Bei Country, but the situation is what it is, and I can’t go now. But this youngster Tang Zhong, he has realized my dream. How gratifying!"

After finishing, Old Military Governor Peng Yuan laughed heartily again.

Then, looking at Tang Zhong, he said, "Kid, you’re outstanding, a true citizen of Xuan Country. I’ll report to Xuanguan Sea and have you officially titled!"

With these words, the entire room was struck with astonishment.

Good Lord!

All eyes were on Tang Zhong. When old Military Governor Peng Yuan said something, it was certain to come true.

They thought about Tang Zhong’s future.

Many were deep with envy. Being so young was unprecedented in the history of Xuan Country.

Zhang Changgong wore a smile on his face.

Li Linglong was nearly in tears; he used to outrank Tang Zhong by one level, yet now, Tang Zhong’s status had surpassed his own.

And all of this happened within just a few short months!

But Li Linglong genuinely felt happy for Tang Zhong.

Meng Wuxiang and others gave him admiring glances; they had no objections, as after all, Tang Zhong was the top-ranked Grandmaster on Xuan Country’s Master List, and he had undergone so many transformative experiences—they were thoroughly convinced.

Hearing the old Military Governor Peng Yuan’s words, Tang Zhong respectfully responded, "Thank you, old Military Governor!"

"This is what you deserve, kid. I hope you will do more for Xuan Country and show the rest of the world!" the old Military Governor Peng Yuan said with a beaming smile.

"Yes, sir!"

This was old Military Governor Peng Yuan’s office, as well as the meeting room.

Only the core members of Dragon Group were allowed here.

What followed was all meeting content.

The old Military Governor Peng Yuan spoke at length and laid out Dragon Group’s future actions.

Soon, the meeting came to an end.

People began to disperse.

Li Linglong came forward with a smile, "Heh, look at that, Commander Tang, you’ve outranked me now!"

"But you’re still my good brother!" Tang Zhong laughed.

From the very beginning at Zhu Island City, if it weren’t for Li Linglong, he would not have reached this point.

"Hearing that makes me happy. I was worried you’d ignore me after your promotion," Li Linglong said cheerfully.

"Haha!" Tang Zhong burst into laughter.

For Tang Zhong, becoming a General was something he had never anticipated, but it was the best outcome, bringing him a step closer to what he envisioned for the future.

His Tang Family would stand tall in Xuanjing City forever, ensuring its protection for a hundred years without incident.

For Tang Zhong, there was only one matter on his mind now: his parents’ inability to speak. Though he knew that with enough Blood Power, he could regenerate their tongues, his current Blood Power was insufficient.

Once he restored his parents’ ability to speak, he would be free to retire with Jiang Weiwei to the mountains, to do as they pleased, living as immortals in love—surely that would be blissful.

And just at that moment, someone approached him.

Vermilion Bird, followed by that White-Bearded strong man, came over.

Vermilion Bird extended his hand toward Tang Zhong, saying, "Commander Tang, congratulations!"

When Tang Zhong saw it was Vermilion Bird, he also extended his hand and laughed, "Yes!"

After a handshake,

Vermilion Bird began to introduce the man behind him, while giving Tang Zhong meaningful glances.

The White-Bearded strong man stepped forward, offering his hand as well, "Commander Tang, my congratulations as well. My name is White Tiger, Vermilion Bird’s elder disciple brother. I’ll be looking forward to your guidance!"
