Chapter 453: Chapter 399: The Four War Zones

Sun Wenshan looked at Zhao Wudi, whose face had turned sour, and couldn’t help but reveal a cold smile. However, he didn’t mock him verbally but instead gave Zhang Heng and others a meaningful glance.

Zhang Heng and the others immediately understood and started saying increasingly unpleasant things.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door of the conference room.

Zhao Wudi immediately spoke up, "Come in."

Dong Lingchuan dared not delay and quickly pushed the door open to enter.

Everyone’s eyes fell on Chu Chen, who was behind Dong Lingchuan.

The strength of the elders present was generally at the terrifying Emperor Level, and with just a slight perception, they could clearly detect the change in Chu Chen’s aura.

Seeing this, Zhao Wudi suddenly stood up and laughed heartily, "Haha, Chu Chen, you’ve done well. Not only have you successfully broken through to King Level, but you’ve also reached the Peak of the First Rank of King Level. I believe it won’t be long before you break through to King Level Second Rank. Truly a pillar of the Alliance."

At this time, the faces of Sun Wenshan and his companions were extremely unpleasant. Not only had they allowed Chu Chen to enter the God Creation Plan, but they had also lost a Rebirth Pill, and what made him even angrier was losing face.

According to the information, this young guy named Chu Chen possesses two unique Guardian Beasts. If allowed to grow, the balance between the two factions would soon be disrupted by him.

Thinking of this, Sun Wenshan’s face became even more unsightly.

At this moment, Zhao Wudi spoke again, "Since Chu Chen has reached the standard of the God Creation Plan, I hereby announce him as officially becoming the Sixth Divine Son."

The elders from Liu Hongzhi’s faction applauded, while the elders from Zhang Heng’s faction merely put on a show.

At this moment, Sun Wenshan suddenly stood up and said, "Congratulations to Chu the Kid for becoming the Sixth Divine Son. This is what we had bet on earlier." After speaking, he tossed over an exquisite wooden box.

Chu Chen unceremoniously stored the wooden box into the Spatial Ring.

He cupped his hands toward Sun Wenshan and said, "Thank you, Grand Elder, for the medicine."

Sun Wenshan nodded upon hearing this and said, "No need to be so polite. I have some matters to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first." After speaking, he quickly left the conference room.

Upon seeing this, Li Mochen and others also bade farewell and left.

When the door to the conference room was closed, Liu Hongzhi suddenly laughed heartily.

"How delightful, it’s been a long time since that old fellow had to swallow his pride."

"Indeed, just thinking about his face as black as the bottom of a pot makes me feel refreshed."

"This time he lost both the wife and the army. Chu the Kid, you’ve really vented our anger for us this time."

At this moment, Zhao Wudi raised his hand to stop the elders’ discussion.

"Alright, this time Sun Wenshan lost face, and knowing his character, he’ll definitely seek revenge. We should think about how to handle it."

Hearing this, everyone’s expressions changed involuntarily. Sun Wenshan was known for holding grudges, and revenge was surely on its way.

"Lord Alliance Leader, it’s very likely that Sun Wenshan will retaliate against Chu Chen next. How about we assign him to the Combat Department to set him free, keeping him beyond their reach?" Dong Lingchuan suggested.

"That might not be wise. Chu the Kid just broke through to King Level, and heading to the Combat Department might be too risky," Liu Hongzhi said in a deep voice.

"How about sending him to the Resource Department?"

...

The elders started discussing once again.

Through their discussions, Chu Chen also gained a general understanding of the Alliance’s structure.

The greatest power in the Alliance naturally belonged to the Alliance Hierarch and the Vice Alliance Hierarch, followed by the Elder Council, and lastly, the six major departments.

These departments included the Human Resources Department, Material Resource Department, Public Relations Department, Intelligence Department, Combat Department, and Law Enforcement Department.

The Human Resources Department is mainly responsible for talent cultivation and job appointments, with subordinate departments numbering in the hundreds, such as the Daoist School, education departments, and the Beastmaster Association—all official organization personnel are managed by this department.

The Material Resource Department is mainly responsible for gathering and allocating materials, which are divided into two categories: cultivation resources needed by Beast Masters, including Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, Beast Taming Eggs, and Star Beast Materials.

The other type is living materials, which include food, clothing, housing, and transportation and so forth.

The department’s jurisdiction covers all official organizations of the Alliance.

The Public Relations Department’s main responsibility is to publicize the Alliance’s policies and reassure the public.

The Intelligence Department’s primary duty is to gather intelligence, including information on all types of Star Beasts, intelligence within Secret Realms, and the quantity and distribution of Star Beasts in each region.

The Combat Department’s main role is to battle against Star Beasts.

The Law Enforcement Department’s chief responsibility is to oversee all Beast Masters within the Alliance.

The six departments manage the entire Alliance’s operations, and each department wields considerable power.

Seeing the group unable to reach a conclusion for half the day, Zhao Wudi couldn’t help but furrow his brow, ultimately tossing the question to Chu Chen.

"Chu the Kid, do you have any thoughts yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen replied softly, "If I have to choose, I would like to choose the Combat Department."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wudi raised his brows and said, "State your reason."

Chu Chen thought for a moment and then replied, "Firstly, the Combat Department requires me to head to the front lines, which can temporarily avoid retaliation from Sun Wenshan and the others. Secondly, my two Guardian Beasts need fresh blood and souls to quickly grow stronger, and the front lines have no shortage of these. Lastly, it’s a personal reason."

Zhao Wudi nodded upon hearing this and said, "Indeed, it’s reasonable. However, the front line is exceedingly dangerous, and anything could happen. Have you thoroughly thought this through?"

Chu Chen solemnly nodded, "I have thought it through."

Seeing this, Zhao Wudi sighed and said, "Very well, since you’ve decided, then it’s settled. However, you’re unfamiliar with the front lines, so let Lingchuan give you an introduction."

Through Dong Lingchuan’s introduction, Chu Chen gained a basic understanding of the front lines.

The front line can be divided into four major military zones—east, south, west, and north.

Each military zone is overseen by four armies: the Eastern Military Zone by the Cyan Dragon Army, the Southern Military Zone by the Vermilion Bird Army, the Western Military Zone by the White Tiger Army, and the Northern Military Zone by the Black Tortoise Army.

There is also a Qilin Army, whose duty is to always be ready to provide support.

No matter which military zone needs support, they must arrive at the first opportunity.

"Have you decided which military zone you want to go to?" Zhao Wudi asked with a smile.

Without hesitation, Chu Chen replied, "I want to go to the Cyan Dragon Army."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wudi burst out laughing.

"You kid, your motives aren’t pure. However, I have to remind you that Yu Yan is the successor to the old marshal. You must act prudently. If you anger the old marshal, your status as a Divine Son can’t protect you."

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen looked puzzled.

"The Combat Department appears to be under the Alliance’s jurisdiction, but if things really come to a head, those soldiers won’t necessarily heed our orders."

"I understand. When a general is out on the battlefield, the sovereign cannot command."

"Haha, you’re sharp. You understood immediately. However, don’t be in a hurry to meet your sweetheart. You’ve just broken through to King Level; make good use of the Alliance’s resources to enhance your abilities first, and then it’s not too late to head to the front lines."

"I understand. Thank you, Lord Alliance Leader, for your guidance."
