Fourth day of the twelfth lunar month, 5:15 AM.
Zhao Xing walked out from the Kaiyang Hall.
Meanwhile, Ji An, Gu Yi, and other County Magistrates of Seven Star Island, along with the Minister of Agriculture, a total of fourteen fifth-rank, forty-eight sixth-rank warriors, and one hundred eighty-two battle pets, gathered outside the hall.
As a medium-sized island, the strength of Ji An and his group was not to be underestimated; half of the hundred eighty-two battle pets were fifth-grade war beasts.
"Mr. Zhao." Ji An approached with a face full of guilt, "I originally wanted to invite you and your battle pets to join us, but this is not an action of just one county. I apologize for not being able to invite you along."
"No worries." Zhao Xing smiled, "I am the one intruding; please proceed with your plans, Mr. Ji."
"If your battle pets are injured and need a healer, be sure to let me know." Ji An said.
"Alright." Zhao Xing nodded.
