While everyone was trying to figure out the real meaning behind the second part of the order they were given, the third part of the order came.
“Thirdly: Gu Dongyang, Sun Yaofei, Qi Long, Li Lanfeng… Those mentioned above will be promoted to major generals!”
A long list of 40 to 50 names all advancing to major general shocked everyone to their core. Was Lingtian going against God? Even legendary mecha clans might not have that many major generals.
Compared to the major generals who were older and had achieved greatness in their past, the two younger major generals on the list seemed to garner more attention.
Li Lanfeng and Qi Long’s name quickly became well-known among the soldiers on Base Nebula.
Qi Long was Team 03’s team leader and the person just behind Yang Mingzhi and Liu Furong. In this battle, his performance was spectacular. Just his own personal achievements of killing three of Knight Mecha Clan’s team leaders was enough for his name to be imprinted in everyone’s mind.
However, ranking up by two ranks, from colonel straight to major general… his achievements seemed to not match with the amount of merits he was given.
Everyone suddenly remembered the rumour that spreaded across the base. Qi Long was the son of the Invincible God of War, the 13th Division’s general, Sky God, Qi Yaoyang. Everyone seemed to have realized the truth behind the suspicious promotion and quickly silenced themselves in case they incurred the wrath of Sky God.
Li Lanfeng, Team 06’s team leader, was originally the same rank as Qi Long, a colonel. Although he didn’t come from an impressive background, his growth was still a living example of a commoner raising up to the heavens. The contribution he had made during the battle was enough to put him as one of the three top performers. That was because these top three performers were the ones who combined their strength and killed the regiment commander of Knight Ace Mecha Clan.
Executing a standard mecha clan’s regiment commander as a team leader was already shocking enough, not to mention executing the regiment commander of Knight Mecha Clan. Just this achievement alone was enough for him to rise up the ranks.
He was too damn lucky! Everyone looked at Li Lanfeng’s name and were all green with envy. Was Li Lanfeng loved by the Goddess of Luck? How could good things always happen to him? (Well, it is because he has such a caring regiment commander.)
Everyone who was still burning from all the different emotions they had from reading the third part of the order, continued to read the next list of names. This was the list of those who advanced to the rank of senior colonel.
Holy, there were so many people who ranked up! Everyone was shocked by the large number of names.
Some carefully counted and realized that there were actually 271 individuals on the list.
Few of the regiment commanders from regular mecha clans looked at the pitiful lieutenant colonel and colonel insignias on their shoulders and felt a bitter taste in their mouths. Had they wasted their lives doing nothing?
Right afterwards, the part of the order where it listed soldiers who were advancing to lieutenant colonel and majors were shown. This time, there wasn’t a list. Instead, there was a document, and it was only shown to those who cared enough to log in and look at the names.
However, some officers just had too much time on their hands as they tried to scratch their itch of curiosity. They logged in and looked through the document. They were instantly dumbfounded. The list was so long that even after scrolling a few times, they couldn’t reach the bottom of the document. After scrolling for a while, they just assumed all of the official members of Lingtian Mecha Clan must have been promoted to at least major-rank. There were even some captain-rank officers from the logistics department, who had an outstanding performance, successfully promoted to the rank of major. Those who were originally majors, would probably at least be promoted by one rank, not mention the captains and sergeants who had outstanding performances…
After reading through the document, every soldier in Base Nebula believed that Lingtian Mecha Clan probably didn’t have any members at the rank of private. The lowest ranked soldier was probably at sergeant-rank.
Of course, the list of soldiers advancing to major or above wasn’t as shocking as the orders given beforehand. As everyone was sure that there was nothing that could surprise them even further, the last part of the order made the entire base erupt in shock.

“Lastly, Lingtian Independent Mecha Clan has reached all requirements of advancing. From today onwards, Lingtian Independent Mecha Clan will become Lingtian Independent Army. Additional army personnel additions will be notified later.”
“Independent army. Lingtian advanced into an independent army…” someone shouted out.
“That’s unbelievable. The 27th Independent Army in history is us, Lingtian!” one soldier from Lingtian Mecha Clan cheered excitedly while pumping his fists into the air.
“Lingtian became an independent army!” Even those proud and stubborn ace mecha clans couldn’t hold back the admiration and envy in their looks as they looked towards the excited members from Lingtian.
Were they jealous? No as this was glory admired by all. They couldn’t be jealous of them even if they wanted to. That was because that becoming an independent army was not achieved based on manpower. It required the clan to be at the right place and at the right time, and even required amazing luck to achieve such a feat.
In other words, Lingtian was an existence that was being taken care of by God itself. In the past, these other ace mecha clans perhaps could still compare to Lingtian, but now they no longer even dare to have the thought.
Who was willing to compare with a monstrous mecha clan that had already advanced to an independent army after only establishing itself for more than a year? When the difference was infinitely vast, these other clans no longer had the thought of comparing themselves with Lingtian.
“I was thinking why they had let us free today. It seems that’s why.” The three major generals who walked passed the plaza heard the shouts and screams of everyone. They showed disdain on their faces.
“Now that everything is set in stone, no one can stop Lingtian from flying freely in the sky.” Wang Shao sighed. Thus, after just regaining their freedom, they could no longer stop Lingtian no matter what they do.
“I didn’t expect Lingtian Mecha Clan to acquire such great merits from the Nebula Boundary Battle…” Qin Youqi had a jealous and angry but yet complicated look on his face.
“An independent army is enough to hold down first-rank five-star clans like ours. Even if legendary mecha clans were to come, they still would have a hard time suppressing Lingtian,” Zhang Haoxun said coldly. “Lingtian have become too powerful. They cannot be stopped anymore.”
“Just one mistake caused us to lose so much. We wasted our time coming here.” Wang Shao shook his head regrettably. They might be in for some reprimand from their chief. He just hoped that the chief wouldn’t lose trust in him because of this matter.
Ye Kui also read through the final part of the order in his room, “As expected, just what I thought. The Federation is changing.”
Ye Kui’s mood wasn’t in the best of sorts. He stood up and paced around anxiously. After thinking about how he was heartlessly rejected by Ling Lan, that feeling of failure made him feel frustrated.
“That order back then was god damn stupid!” Ye Kui thought of Ye Xu and instantly cussed out.
If the family didn’t force Ye Xu out of Lingtian, perhaps he would still be able to use the friendship between Ye Xu and Ling Lan to improve his family’s situation. He could have even made Ye Xu be like the two from the Li family to work under Ling Lan. That way, the Ye family wouldn’t have to worry about anything anymore.
The Ye family clearly had the chance to change their destiny, but they didn’t hold it in his hands tight enough. This feeling of powerlessness made Ye Kui, who poured everything he had into the Ye family, feel so frustrated that it could almost kill him.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have enough say in the Ye family. He could only be considered to be an enforcer and not a decision maker. Even if Ye Kui knew the order given to him by the elders of the family was dumb, he could still only just watch as the Ye family’s stubborn elderly pushed the family into the brink of destruction.
