Lu Pei's roar was transmitted directly to the Jianguo Mansion in the inner city through luck.

As one of the six major palaces in the empire, the Jianguo Mansion is specifically responsible for supervising and managing all chores within the entire Ziyang Empire for the royal family.

Generally, memorials of events are reviewed by the Supervisory Office, and memorials of important matters are sent to the court for discussion by the ruler of the country and the civil and military officials.

Lu Pei has never been so panicked as he is today since he assumed the position of commander of the 200,000 forbidden troops in the outer city of the imperial capital.

He grabbed the Yangling County soldier with one hand and quickly passed through the inner city gate with his speed and rushed directly into the Jianguo Mansion.

The other generals who defended the city had already suppressed the riot just caused outside.

Lu Pei rushed straight to the lobby of the Supervisor's Mansion. Anyone who met on the way was knocked away by him.

At this time, in the lobby of the Imperial Palace, seven or eight people were reviewing some memorials that would be sent to the court tomorrow for discussion by the king and the civil and military officials.

Suddenly, there was a bang, and the originally closed door was violently kicked open by a man.

Everyone in the lobby stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the two people at the door. A middle-aged man wearing blue clothes had a slightly angry look on his face.

He asked in a deep voice, "General Lu, what are you doing? Even if there is something urgent, you have to knock on the door first before coming in. How do you look like this? You don't look like the commander of the imperial army."

Lu Pei ignored the dissatisfied faces of everyone in the lobby. He walked into the lobby with a big stride, threw the soldier aside and handed the letter to the man who was responsible.

"Your Majesty, Deputy Governor, where is your Majesty the Governor? We have urgent matters to see him. This is an emergency brought by Yangling County. We must rush to the palace and hand it over to His Majesty the King."

Lu Pei came in and said straight to the point. Everyone in the lobby was confused, and the deputy governor still had the same slightly angry expression.

"Even if it's an emergency, you don't have to be so panicked. They are all people who have been on the battlefield and killed the enemy among thousands of people. They have no stability at all."

The deputy governor said, although there was a dissatisfied expression on his face, he still accepted the letter presented by Lu Pei.

He knew that if it wasn't a real emergency, with the mentality of the legendary general in front of him, he would never be so panicked.

He opened the envelope and took a look, but there was no next move. Others were confused when they saw this. One person asked: "My lord, Lieutenant Governor, what is the urgent matter in the letter?"

However, the deputy governor did not respond. Instead, he dropped the envelope and ran out. At the same time, a voice came back.

"Hurry up and activate the demon-killing army. Lu Pei takes the envelope and goes to the palace. I'll call the governor."

The person had disappeared, and everyone was confused by this operation, but when they heard that the demon-killing army was about to be activated, their faces became serious.

One person picked up the envelope that fell on the ground and took a look. His face suddenly lost all color, leaving only a pale white color, and even his hands were trembling slightly.

Others didn't know why, so they came over to take a look, and their faces were as white as wax.

Lu Pei directly took away the envelope and said: "Sir, please hurry up and activate the demon-killing army. He is a soldier from Yangling County. If you have anything to ask him, I will go to the palace to meet the saint."

After saying that, he ran away. The soldier he threw aside just got up from the ground, but as soon as he got up, he was picked up by two people who were stronger than him.

These two people directly caught him for questioning, while the remaining people went to activate the sleeping demon army.

This army was formed a long time ago, and its purpose is to fight against the demons like what happened today.

After Lu Pei arrived at the palace, he went directly to Eunuch Wei, the famous man next to His Majesty the King. Without saying any nonsense, he just said four words, and the demons revived.

Eunuch Wei immediately took him to see the lord of the country. Two hours later, the lord of the country and the civil and military officials were discussing in the Baixian Hall.

The king of the country was sitting on the dragon chair, looking down at the officials below, "My lords, can we discuss any good strategies?"

The Prime Minister Feng Ming stood up and said: "Your Majesty, now that the demons have revived, according to the situation reported by Yangling County, I am afraid that the entire Qingling City has been occupied by the demons at this moment, and Yangling County has sent 50,000 soldiers and horses. Defensive, but there is still a possibility for the demons to expand."

The leader of the country, Su Yunche, nodded slightly, "Does Prime Minister Feng have any good ideas?"

Feng Ming immediately said: "Your Majesty, according to the report from the Supervisor's Office, there was no movement of the demons in those two places. I think that the demons that appeared in Qingling City must have been broken through by someone from the outside with great magical powers. The formation draws the demonic energy into the world, and it is very likely that some demons will escape through it."

"In my opinion, the demon-killing army must be dispatched immediately to exterminate the demons, and then we can investigate the reasons why the demons appeared. This can suppress the panic caused by the demons to ordinary people in a short period of time, but."

At the end, Feng Xiang did not continue, and there was obviously some struggle on his face.

Seeing his hesitation, Su Yunche, who was sitting on the dragon throne, did not rush to ask. Instead, one of the three kings, the regent, was smarter and asked on behalf of the king.

"If Prime Minister Feng has any concerns, you might as well tell him directly. As long as the method is feasible, I believe that after discussing it with the civil and military officials, His Majesty the King may also agree to your method."

With his words, Feng Ming raised his head and glanced at the king sitting on the dragon throne, and saw that he had no expression. As the prime minister for many years, he also understood that this was his acquiescence.

He expressed his thoughts without hesitation.

"Your Majesty, the Top 100 Elite Beastmaster Competition that we have established with other empires and surrounding kingdoms will be held in more than half a year. All colleagues in the court also know that now our Ziyang Empire can The only one who is guaranteed to be in the top ten is probably the second prince."

"The first requirement of the competition is to be under the age of twenty-five. The eldest prince is already twenty-seven years old, and the second prince has just turned twenty-four this year. In addition to the second prince, there may be people in the Ziyang Academy who are guaranteed to be in the top twenty. There are only three, which is really too few compared to the contestants from other empires.”

"Compared to the previous generation, the empire's real geniuses have been reduced by nearly half. Therefore, for this year's Top 100 Elite Beastmaster Competition, I have the courage to propose a method to His Majesty, but this method may hurt people. The foundation of my empire’s younger generation.”

After Prime Minister Feng finished speaking, all the civil and military officials in the court, including the regent who had just spoken, fell silent and looked at Prime Minister Feng quietly.

What he said is actually correct. There are really too few geniuses in the Ziyang Empire this year, and the number of people who can participate is nearly half less than the previous imperial contestants.

Regarding this problem, Su Yunche, as the leader of a country, has also thought about it, but there is no good solution. Now, the prime minister has said that he has a plan, but the stakes are also a bit scary.

"Prime Minister Feng, why don't you tell me? Let me hear your thoughts." Su Yunche slowly leaned on the dragon chair and spoke. He did not look at the civil and military officials below.

Feng Xiang took a deep breath and said in a sonorous and powerful voice: "Your Majesty, the demon clan is now in chaos. Although it is a crisis, it is also an opportunity. There are not many disciples of Ziyang Academy who can actually compete. We can take advantage of this opportunity Give them the opportunity to fight against the demons, train them to unleash their potential, and reward those with outstanding performance."

"This method can provide the empire with a group of young geniuses as quickly as possible."

As soon as he said this, a minister stood up and retorted: "Prime Minister Feng's method is inappropriate. The cruelty and ferocity of the demons are clearly recorded in the history books. Let's not go too far, just say the incident fifteen years ago." In the first battle, the demons only slightly shook the sealing formation, leaking some demonic energy and causing heavy losses to the empire. If the disciples of the Academy were allowed to fight the demons, the entire empire would probably lose all its young geniuses."

"Yes, Your Majesty, this method is definitely not feasible. Please think twice before deciding."

Feng Ming looked at the people who refuted him, but did not show too much dissatisfaction. He had already expected this situation. Anyone who heard this method would disagree immediately.

He even thought that when he expressed this idea, the king would disagree and get angry and punish him.

After all, this method will kill many young geniuses. The current generation of young geniuses in the empire are not as many as those who participated in the last Top 100 Elite Beast Master Competition.

Listening to the words of the civil and military officials below, the regent was more in favor of Prime Minister Feng's idea, but the man sitting on the dragon throne did not speak, and he could not speak.
