Chapter 2231: Unt.i.tled

“And it wasn’t just the soldiers. Even our Spiritual Lords and Spiritual Kings were defeated by the Dongsang Kingdom soldiers who were on the same level!”

Feng Wu frowned. “Was it because of the inscriptions?”

Feng Xun nodded. “Yes!”

Feng Wu was perplexed. “If that’s the case, our empire should focus on training more inscription masters.”

Feng Xun smiledly wryly. “That’s easier said than done. Inscriptions are very complicated, and only the smartest and the most focused people have a chance to become inscription masters. The people of Dongsang come by those attributes naturally, which is why they have so many inscription masters.

“We may have many smart people, but not enough of them have enough focus. Good formation masters are hard to come by, let alone inscription masters.

“The Dongsang Kingdom has many Spiritual Masters and even more inscription masters. Their battle suits are lined with inscriptions and even formations. How are we supposed to fight them?”

Feng Wu didn’t know what to say.

Feng Xun said, “Their ninja skills are a special formation skill!”

Feng Wu thought about it and found that to be the case.

“If we have so few formation masters, can’t we import some from the Dongsang Kingdom?” Feng Wu asked. “Coerce them or bribe them. I’m sure some would turn to our side.”

But Feng Xun shook his head with a wry smile. “Do you think we haven’t tried? It doesn’t work. We could persuade any other member of the Dongsang Kingdom, but the formation masters are part of their strategic resources, and if an inscription master dares to come over to our side, their entire clan will be killed. That would deter just about anyone.”

Feng Wu said, “You have a point…”

Feng Xun said, “The problem is that our empire has so few inscription masters and even fewer formation masters. You’re a Spiritual Lord, and you’ve seldom worked with inscriptions, let alone add them to soldiers’ armor. Am I right?”

Feng Wu nodded.

That explained it. Feng Wu had been wondering why people of the Junwu Empire hardly ever mentioned inscriptions or formations. There were simply too few of them for the common folk to know about.

“The inscriptions aren’t very advanced.” Feng Wu studied the battle suit. “Level 7, at most.”

She saw the others all give her strange looks.

Feng Wu was confused. “What?”

“Level 7 is not very advanced?” Feng Xun stared at her and gritted his teeth. “At most?”

Feng Wu tilted her head. “Is Level 7 very advanced?”

Feng Xun was astonished.

He didn’t know that Feng Wu had been learning from her beautiful master since she was very little.

And her beautiful master had taught her as much as she could remember.

She had already learned Level 7 inscriptions when she was six. Her beautiful master had then said that was already enough, and she could learn more advanced levels when she was a little older.

Feng Wu told Feng Xun the truth. “I already learned Level 7 when I was six. How advanced can it be?”

“

Ahem…

”

The crown prince finally woke up at that moment, and when he heard that, he almost spat out the water in his mouth.

Feng Wu was bewildered. “What’s the matter?”
