"Announcing the martial genius."

First, Ouyang Shuo granted the title to show auspiciousness.

"Martial genius Niu Da, please enter!"

After a moment, a burly general strolled into the hall; he did not even dare to raise his head. With a Shua! he knelt on one foot, cupping his fists and greeting, “I am Niu Da, greetings Monarch."

His voice trembled.

Niu Da was just a normal major in the Dragon Legion Corps. Before this, he had never expected to have the chance to appear here. Not to mention to be the first person the Lord summoned in the 1st court assembly.

Just that point alone was enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.

"Please rise!" Ouyang Shuo signaled to Bai Nanpu.

Bai Nanpu understood; he took out the prepared decree and read, “The Monarch decrees, martial genius Niu Da, champion of the three armies, awarded grade 5 title Zhaowu General, promoted to major general of the 5th division of the Guards Legion, effective immediately."

Elation flashed across his face as he kowtowed, “Thank you Monarch for your good grace!"

This honest military man did not even try to hide his excitement. His open emotions caused the old foxes present to shake their heads; some admired him, and some looked down on him.

The martial genius receiving a promotion to major general was Du Ruhui’s promise before the competition. As for the specifics of the division they would go to, the Monarch would make the choice.

Du Ruhui had suggested to send him to the 2nd legion of the Dragon Legion Corps. After all, he was from the Dragon Legion, so he would face less obstacles there.

From major to major general, it was a massive leap.

Majors led men, and they needed to use their strength as a deterrence. At the major general level, one had to use their brains. Niu Da skipping the ranks meant that he had jumped over the colonel training.

Du Ruhui's plan was to play safe.

However, Ouyang Shuo had another idea. Coincidentally, the 5th division of the Guards Legion lacked a major general. As such, why not send him there as an example for the whole army?

The Guards Legion was the trump card legion of the entire territory.

The ability of the major generals there was not something that other major generals could compare to.

Hence, it was no wonder that Niu Da would feel so delighted. Upgrading to major general was already a promotion of two levels and entering the Guards Legion was all the more an honor; it was like taking a step up to the heavens.

As for whether or not he could live up to expectations, it temporarily was not on his mind. In his eyes, the military was about whose fist was the biggest; the person with the bigger fist would be the boss. If you did not like someone, beat them up until they submit.

This was also his military logic, simple, violent, and sometimes rather effective.

In the following period, the 5th division would experience many interesting matters. Luckily, they had God General Huo Qubing in charge, so nothing big would happen.

Ouyang Shuo stood, taking a tray over from Bai Nanpu.

On the tray was a golden shiny armor; this was Ouyang Shuo’s previous Mingguang Armor.
