Chapter 787

Hearing General Huaiyan's words, Miss Yunli could not help but retort.

【Exactly, this is precisely why I've called the two of you here.】

General Huaiyan revealed a smile, then looked toward March 7th.

【Could it be that General Huaiyan plans to take the field personally?】

Seeing General Huaiyan looking at her, March 7th asked in confusion.

【This old man certainly won't be idle, but the place I'm headed is not the Jingfeng Ship.】

General Huaiyan shook his head.

【Don't tell me... General Huaiyan wants me to... take Yanqing's place... go up on stage to defend the ring...?】

March 7th suddenly understood General Huaiyan's idea.

【Young Lady March is truly as clever as ice and snow!】

【What this old man means is exactly that.】

March 7th: "???"

March 7th: "How did Yanqing's job end up on my head?!"

March 7th: "Asking me to go up and defend the ring — is this real?"

Stelle: "Goodness, with March's level going up to defend the ring..."

Stelle: "What kind of charity event is this Martial Exhibition Ceremony?"

Stelle: "My verdict is, it'd be better to let me go up!"

General Huaiyan: "Hahaha, those words are amiss."

General Huaiyan: "Having Young Lady March 7th go up to defend the ring is, in a manner of speaking, perfectly justified."

Miss Qingque: "Also, Yanqing is, after all, March 7th's Master — when the Master is busy, the disciple steps in. Very reasonable!"

March 7th: "But with my meager skills, asking me to defend the ring — you've got to be joking, right?"

March 7th: "I'm definitely going to get thrashed!"

March 7th: "When the time comes, it'll be the faces of my two Masters and Luo Fu Xianzhou that get lost!"

Stelle: "No, no, no — there's also the old face of our Astral Express that'll get lost."

Stelle: "But it doesn't matter, I've got thick skin, I'm not afraid of losing face. (smug. jpg)"

Miss Yunli: "Honestly, speaking purely of swordsmanship, I don't think March can successfully defend the ring of the Martial Exhibition Ceremony."

Hearing Yanqing: "But the Martial Exhibition Ceremony doesn't restrict weapon styles."

Hearing Yanqing: "If Young Lady March uses sword and bow together, it doesn't mean she can't defeat opponents from all sides."

Miss Sushang: "Sword and bow together?"

Miss Sushang: "Why does that sound even harder?"

March 7th: "Eh? Easy for you to say — I, this Miss, haven't even learned to do two things at once!"

March 7th: "Besides, I dual-wield swords!"

March 7th: "If I want to use a bow, don't I have to throw the swords away?"

Brother Dan Heng: "Don't be afraid. Since General Huaiyan has already said so, March, you just go all out."

Firefly: "Mm, the result doesn't matter — just do your best."

March 7th: "Ah, this... am I really being forced to do something I'm not ready for?"

The video continued.

【Grandpa, March is a guest General Jing Yuan invited to observe the ceremony!】

【How can a guest be asked to represent Luo Fu and go up on stage to defend the ring?!】

【Wouldn't this only make people laugh at Luo Fu Xianzhou for having no one?】

Miss Yunli could not understand General Huaiyan's approach.

【Little fool, the Nameless of the Astral Express are renowned across the starry sea — to be able to invite them is what an honor!】

【Besides, Young Lady March is going into battle under the name of a Cloud Knight Guard disciple — how could that count as Luo Fu Xianzhou having no one?】

Stelle: "Eee-yah-yah-yah!"

Stelle: "General Huaiyan is truly a member of the Zhenshitai Society!"

Stelle: "Making us Nameless sound like some big shots."

General Jing Yuan: "Everyone from the Astral Express is an outstanding hero — to be able to invite them is naturally the honor of myself, Jing Yuan, and of Luo Fu Xianzhou."

March 7th: "General, that's way too much of an exaggeration."

March 7th: "We're not that amazing."

March 7th: "Just ordinary people!"

Sampo: "Oh-ho, Young Lady March, now that's overly modest of you!"

Sampo: "Whose ordinary people can easily save an ice-and-snow planet on the brink of destruction from a Stellaron crisis?"

Sampo: "Whose ordinary people can fight to the death on Luo Fu Xianzhou against the Denizens of Abundance and an Emanator of Destruction?"

Sampo: "Not to mention the earth-shattering feats you all pulled off in Penacony, which nearly buried another Aeons once again."

Sampo: "Tell me, which of these things could an ordinary person accomplish?"

Miss Qingque: "Mr. Sampo, I wouldn't have even realized it if you hadn't said so."

Miss Qingque: "The things Stelle and the others did are practically legend by now, aren't they?"

Miss Qingque: "Right now, they're basically living legends!"

Miss Qingque: "Goodness, I actually managed to become friends with people like that — in the future when I play Divination Card Game, I'll have something to brag about!"

Furina: "Everyone on the Express is really amazing."

Furina: "Without even realizing it themselves, they've already done countless earth-shattering, monumental deeds."

Hu Tao: "What's even more outrageous is that after they finish, they can act as if nothing happened, keeping a perfectly calm heart."

Stelle: "Has the Kuakua Assembly started again?"

Stelle: "Then bring it on, I'll take any compliment you can dish out!"

Stelle: "I love hearing it!"

Silver Wolf: "I don't even need to guess to know Stelle is now so smug her lips are pursed."

Firefly: "Everyone on the Astral Express deserves these compliments."

Silver Wolf: "Firefly, anyone who didn't know would think you've already defected to the Astral Express!"

Silver Wolf: "Why don't you just go over there with them! (speechless. jpg)"

Stelle: "Firefly babe, hurry over, I've already saved a spot for you in my blankets!"

March 7th: "Stelle, I'm begging you, please be serious!"

March 7th: "You've scared Young Lady Firefly so much she doesn't even dare come over!"

Firefly: "(covering-mouth-laugh. jpg)"

The video continues.

【You two, the convening of the Martial Exhibition Ceremony must not be allowed to fail.】

【What I entrust to you is far more than just victory, defeat, honor, or disgrace on the arena — it is also the safety of the Jingfeng Warship.】

【Sister Yukong, tell them the arrangements that follow.】

After General Huaiyan gave Sister Yukong some instructions, he fell silent.

Sister Yukong nodded and began briefing March 7th and Miss Yunli on the plan that followed.

Meanwhile, the scene shifted,

arriving at the Shackling Prison.

At this moment, General Jing Yuan had brought people here.

【Shackling Prison's management has been lacking; it is most grateful for the General's esteemed presence.】

Seeing General Jing Yuan arrive, Judge Hanya hurried forward to express her thanks.

【No need for such courtesy, Judge.】

【The Cloud Knights' battle formations clash and break the enemy, while the Ghostly Court sternly punishes the guilty — the Cloud Knights and the Ghostly Court are two sides of the same coin on Luo Fu Xianzhou.】

【Being able to serve the Ten-Lords Commission is also my honor.】

【I already have a grasp of the prisoners' escape situation — tell me the current state of the Shackling Prison.】

Furina: "The Shackling Prison was personally led and suppressed by General Jing Yuan?"

Furina: "No wonder it was so clean and decisive — he regained control of the Shackling Prison in such a short time."
