Life is like being rested on a sharp edge, trying to maintain a balance between affirming the morality of the present world and the irrepressible spiritual impulse to transcend the present world, but the reality does not. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

- Franz Kafka (Austrian novelist)

No matter how much Charlemagne wanted to accomplish it through this edition of the Eight Nations League, it had nothing to do with Bai Feng, and as a student of the Military Department of the Imperial Academy, all Bai Feng had to do was to participate in the competition and win the championship of the war competition.

At this time, the empire had issued an order for the promotion of the Bai family's title; Bai Feng's father Bai Mingcheng's title was newly promoted from the Marquis of Llorente to the Duke of Llorente, and Bai Haowen and Bai Haowu were awarded the title of twin dukes, and even Bai Haotian had a symbolic duke title.

The Bai family, which has four dukes, instantly surpassed the Long family with two dukes and became the number one family in the southern realm, and even the number one family in the entire Tianlong Empire;

Even the five most meritorious duke families in the empire were all families of two dukes, and although they were less than half of the number of dukes than the Bai family, the strength of their five major families was more than twice as strong as the Bai family.

It's not that the Bai family doesn't understand the truth of the tree, but Bai Feng is more concerned about whether the Bai family can legally have more troops, so he will agree to the suggestion of the Eighth Emperor and use the hands of the Eighth Prince to shape the Bai family into the most powerful family in the empire.

With the entitlement of the four dukes of the Bai family, the alliance between the Bai family and the eighth prince has also been completely exposed, and this matter is no longer a secret to the top elites of the empire, but the vast majority of ordinary nobles are still shocked by this.

In addition to the shock, countless nobles who had not chosen a position earlier chose to take refuge in the Eighth Prince, who had the support of the Bai family, and the prestige of the Twin Sword Saints was not comparable to that of the Duke of Kulun, and the Eighth Prince, the weakest of the four princes, instantly became an existence side by side with the Great Prince.

If it weren't for the short growth time of the Eight Princes, maybe the strongest of the four princes would have become the Eighth Prince;

From the former four princes, five princes, and eight princes allied against the eldest prince, to today's eldest prince, four princes, and five princes intend to form an alliance to suppress the eight princes, the situation of the battle for the throne has been reversed by the Bai family's newly born twin sword saints.

The direct result of the growing popularity of the Bai family is that the situation of Bai Sa and other Bai family members in the Imperial Academy is becoming more and more difficult; compared to the people of the Eight Princes' forces who respect the Bai family, the people of the other three princes are all kinds of difficulties for the Bai family.

Fortunately, Duke Gna, the dean of the Imperial Academy, and Duke Karl, the vice president, are both top dignitaries in the imperial capital, and with the two of them personally sitting in the Imperial Academy, the so-called embarrassment is also cynicism in words, and it has not risen to the point of full martial arts at all.

However, the battle between these top magnates did not have much impact on the ordinary students in the academy, and the vast majority of ordinary students, after meeting the Bai family, would show their friendly side to show respect for the four dukes of the Bai family and the twin sword masters.

Bai Feng, who left the dormitory, met many people on the way to Teacher Sophia's dormitory, and greeted him warmly, only the cousin of the eldest prince passed by Bai Feng with a group of people, and spit on the ground to show disdain.

With Bai Feng's bearing, he naturally wouldn't have anything to do with Duke Cullen's own grandson; after ignoring these naïve guys, Bai Feng went straight to the front of Teacher Sophia's dormitory, and asked the aunt at the door to help him go in and call Teacher Sophia.

Sophia, who was putting on makeup in the room, saw Bai Feng when Bai Feng approached her dormitory building, but she had no intention of going out to see Bai Feng immediately;

It is an eternal truth that Sophia has never met someone who can make her fall in love, otherwise how could she not love red makeup as a woman?

Sophia, who was wearing makeup for the first time, took several hours to barely put on light makeup, and when Sophia, who had always been plain, appeared in front of Bai Feng's eyes with light makeup, Bai Feng, who was used to seeing beautiful women, felt amazing.

Looking at the obsession in Bai Feng's eyes, Sophia's secretly smug smile became more and more flattering, and on the way to the office of the military department side by side, Bai Feng, who came back to his senses, asked, "Sophia, I plan to sign up for this year's Eight Nations League." ”

Since Bai Feng and Sophia communicated at the Eighth Prince's private banquet last time, Sophia has never faced Bai Feng with the posture of a teacher, and Bai Feng has not called Sophia a teacher anymore, and the two have chosen to call each other by their names with great tacit understanding.

Hearing Bai Feng say this, Sophia, who was still in joy, rolled her eyes and said, "Why do you think I sent someone to call you back?" My grandfather has already appointed you as the captain of the military department, just waiting for you to announce the official appointment." ”

"Captain, if I, a freshman who has just come to the academy, become the captain, can the other veteran students who participate in the competition be willing?" Bai Feng didn't believe that the students in the Imperial Academy were honest people, and he was willing to give up the captaincy just by an order from Duke Kleist.

"Whether they want to or not is their business, as long as my grandfather appoints you as the captain of the competition, then you are the captain of our military department, if anyone dares to question you, I will personally break his two legs, anyway, the war competition is a deduction and does not use legs!"

Sophia is really as tough as ever! But Bai Feng, as a direct beneficiary, still likes Sophia's toughness, at least he can solve a lot of troubles for himself, so that he can devote himself wholeheartedly to the next game.

After arriving at Duke Kleist's office, Bai Feng found that it was already full of people, in addition to the five famous teachers of the Military Department, there were also six students with good momentum. If nothing else, they should be participating students from the Military Department.

Before Bai Feng saluted Duke Kleist, Duke Kleist preemptively announced the appointment of Bai Feng's captain, and to Bai Feng's surprise, the other six seniors had no doubt about this appointment, and even looked at him with respect.

Could it be that becoming the captain automatically obtains the aura of the protagonist?! Bai Feng, who was shocked, later learned that it was Duke Kleist who told him that he had lost to Bai Feng in the deduction battle, and this was the scene that Bai Feng saw in front of his eyes.

Duke Kleist, who was the hero who served as the head of the Imperial Bauhinia Knights, was also the most admired veteran of the battlefield in the entire military department, and Bai Feng, who was able to defeat him in the deduction battle, naturally won the respect of the six students present.

The team of the Military Department was led by Bai Feng, with Cavalry Monster Donald and Sophia as instructors, and the specific participating students were Sandy, Tracy, Nishizawa, Morris, Borg, and Wald from the second grade, as well as Harold from the first grade.

Yes, this Harold is the second eldest in the White Peak dormitory, he is the eldest son of the Marquis of Metz, a powerful man in the north of the empire, and has been in the Fourth Army of the Marquis of Metz since he was a child, and is more experienced than most of the second-year students in the military department.

As for the third-year students of the Military Department, they were already sent to serve in the various regiments in the border area at the beginning of the year, which is also the practice of the Imperial Academy, and the third-year students of all departments must go to the border area to serve for a year.
