Chapter 4: The God of War - White Tiger!
Meanwhile, in a valley in the southeast of the Central Region, bordering the Southern Wilderness.
An old man dressed in plain clothes and a resolute young man stood there, with a white horse beside them. Its limbs were as white as snow, its body covered in black mane, and a ring of white hair around its neck, like a white horse with a white cloak. The two of them quietly looked down at the exit of the valley below.
"They're here..."
"Go, complete your transformation!"
As the sound of horses' hooves rang out, the old man dressed in plain clothes slowly spoke.
"Um..."
The young man nodded silently, then led the white horse toward the valley exit.
...
As the sound of hooves drew closer, Zhan Beiye, who was leading a few guards in a disheveled retreat, gradually came to see the figure at the valley's exit.
White robes, white armor, a white horse, and a spear and a sword that are entirely white.
Alone on horseback, Zhan Beiye felt as if he were facing an enemy army of thousands, an unstoppable force!
"You're here to ambush me, aren't you, you little brat over there!"
Sensing the imposing aura emanating from the lone rider opposite him, and noticing his youthful face, Zhan Beiye paused for a moment, then suddenly grinned.
"I have no grudge against the general, but..."
The white-armored lone rider slowly spoke, but then suddenly stopped, reached into his robes, took out a small white porcelain bottle, and tossed it to Zhan Beiye.
"We're all men of the battlefield, why all this grudges and resentment!"
"If you want my life, come and take it!"
Zhan Beiye reached out and took the small white porcelain bottle. Without the slightest hesitation, he pulled off the stopper and poured the contents into his mouth, as naturally as drinking the hot tea his wife had poured for him after returning home.
Zhan Beiye didn't ask if there was anything wrong with this thing, just as Baihu didn't say what was inside.
As Zhan Beiye's injuries slowly healed, his aura gradually rose to its peak.
"But...you're in my way!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the white-robed knight charged forward, arriving in front of Zhan Beiye in an instant, thrusting with his right spear and slashing horizontally with his left blade!
"Ding! White Tiger skill Holy Spear activated... Base attack power 110!"
"Ding! Zhan Beiye's skill 'Berserk God' activated, base attack power 107!"
...
The World's Heroes Ranking, also known as the Martial Generals Ranking, is a joint effort by renowned scholars from the Hundred Schools of Thought and the powerful martial arts sects Tianji Pavilion and Baixiaosheng. It records seventy-two of the most formidable generals of their time and ranks them based on their martial prowess and battle achievements.
Tian Kuang Zhan Shen - Zhan Bei Ye, ranked 10th on the World's Heroes Ranking, is one of the twelve Heavenly Gods and Generals of the Great Xuan Dynasty, which controls eight continents and spans the Central Region, the Southern Wilderness, and the Eastern Land.
At this moment, he collapsed in this obscure valley.
At the same time, a supreme god of war with a base strength of 110, enough to cause a great uproar in the world, was quietly born here!
The pill that Baihu just threw to Zhan Beiye was the Hundred Herbs Creation Pill, which his master, the leader of the military school, had given him beforehand. It was meant to heal his injuries during his final breakthrough, allowing him to advance in the best possible condition.
But... for Baihu, he cannot choose his opponent when he is promoted to Heavenly God General.
Because this was chosen for him by his master, and his master had worked hard and planned it all for his own good.
He wouldn't refuse, nor would he feign arrogance, letting his master's years of hard work go to waste because of his so-called pride or martial spirit.
However, throwing out that bottle of Creation Pills was his answer to his master.
He will defeat the peak Heavenly Mad War God - Zhan Beiye with absolute strength and powerfully advance to the Heavenly God General!
He wouldn't refuse his master's kindness, but... his pride as a war god also prevented him from bullying the weak and kicking a wounded opponent when he was down.
This is also why Master Baihu, the chief strategist, went to such lengths to plan for him.
Otherwise, if the White Tiger were to choose for himself, this hothead would definitely aim for first place, and who knows when he would be able to advance to the rank of Heavenly God General!
At this moment, the White Tiger, the instigator of all this, stood alone, surrounded by a powerful aura that made him unattainable. The beam of light grew stronger and stronger, radiating a huge brilliance, and a divine and powerful white tiger of qi condensed behind him.
"Ding! Detected that the White Tiger has solo-killed a Celestial General and plundered its fortune, and is advancing to the Celestial General level..."
"Ding! White Tiger's skill has successfully advanced. The skill Holy Spear has been fused with the skill Gun God and advanced to White Tiger's exclusive Celestial God Skill - God of War!"
Its superior quality and solemn, clear voice intimidate all beasts and roar echo through the mountains and forests!
It is the god of war and weapons - the White Tiger!
...
"You should go now...go find your destined master."
Looking at the brilliant White Tiger on the field, the leader of the military strategists felt a mixture of amazement, satisfaction, and a touch of melancholy.
The little one has finally grown into one of the strongest in the world, and is about to enter the world to find his own destiny.
"Where does Master want me to go?"
The white tiger in the arena slightly turned its head.
"Haha, if I told you, would you listen?"
The chief strategist stroked his beard slowly and asked with a smile.
"..."
The White Tiger did not answer; he had already entered the mortal world, and there would only be one place for him to go next.
He respected the old man who was his mentor, but for this one reason, he would not listen to the old man's other opinions.
"Hmph, you heartless brat, go divorce him, go divorce him!"
Upon seeing this, the old man in plain clothes laughed and cursed, then turned around and waved his sleeves, his figure disappearing from the white tiger's sight.
"..."
The white tiger stared silently in the direction where its master had disappeared for a moment, then slowly knelt down and respectfully kowtowed nine times.
Then, he led the white horse and headed east without looking back!
...
Inside the courtyard of Prince Yun's residence, Su Ye.
"What's going on with the system? Why is White Tiger suddenly fighting with someone? And what is this Heavenly General? Isn't a base combat strength of 110 the strongest?"
Su Ye, who had just finished summoning, was stunned by a sudden system notification and asked the system in confusion.
"Ding! Under the arrangement of his master, the chief of military strategists, Baihu is undergoing the promotion to the rank of Heavenly General."
"This is the fate trajectory automatically derived by the leader of the military strategists based on the character's personality after the system implanted the identity."
"Ding! The Celestial General is a warrior favored by destiny in this world. Each Celestial General will combine the divine skill born from their breakthrough to the God of War with one of their own skills to form a unique Celestial Skill."
With the system's explanation, Su Ye gradually gained a basic understanding of the Heavenly Gods.
Generally, a god can be promoted to a war god by possessing one god-level skill, and by fusing a god-level skill with his own exclusive skill, he can advance to a celestial god skill.
The Celestial Skill not only provides a greater boost to combat power than ordinary skills, but also grants immunity to negative status effects such as the ability to cast all spells.
Furthermore, celestial beings with divine skills are more effective than ordinary war gods in influencing the morale of their troops, suppressing the overall combat power of enemy soldiers.
Furthermore, there is only one Heavenly Divine Skill. Just like Baihu's Heavenly Divine Skill - God of War, the God of War will not appear on another person before Baihu dies.
Moreover, the position of a celestial being is also related to the mysterious fortune. As a celestial being, one will have very few bottlenecks in cultivation and will improve one's martial power very quickly.
Currently, there are only 12 positions for Heavenly Gods in the Central Plains, while there are only 6 positions for Heavenly Gods among the four foreign tribes!
"As for the opportunity for Baihu to advance to the Heavenly God General, it was because the system implanted Baihu's identity as the closed-door disciple of the leader of the Military School, and the leader of the Military School himself planned and schemed for Baihu."
"It is an autonomous evolution that belongs to the trajectory of the world's destiny and is unrelated to the system."
As the system notification faded, Su Ye's expression became somewhat subtle.
What is this?
Buy a house and get a sports car for free?
Not only did I get a top-tier War God with a base weapon level of 110, but I also got a free position as a Celestial General!
