Spring.

East gate of Divine Capital City.

A sea of people, bustling and lively.

After deliberate propaganda by the Imperial Court, the common folks had already forgotten Yu Qingtian; their attention converged upon the renowned border general "Zhou Hong".

At fourteen, he was appointed as a skirmisher, during the year of the Renyin Disturbance, when the Northern Border suffered a major defeat that shook the National Dynasty.

"Zhou Hong" led three thousand cavalry in a night raid on Great Yong soldiers, setting their camps ablaze, and made a name for himself in that battle.

Thanks to his exploits, he was promoted to deputy general, stationed at Desolate City, and repelled the Great Yong army's attacks several times.

After peace talks between the two nations, he was promoted to regional commander and took charge of military affairs in a state of the Northern Border.
