In mid-July, half a month after Shen Zhui returned to Ten Thousand Peaks City.
The news of Shen Zhui becoming the commander of the Divine Power had already spread throughout the Wu'an Army.
At the ennoblement ceremony, Shen Zhui's noble rank was promoted from a third-rank baron to a first-rank viscount, jumping a significant step and rising six ranks in succession. The next step would be to a third-rank earl.
Shen Zhui also acquired a medium-sized county within the jurisdiction of the Wu'an Army, a source of countless tributary lands.
This was solely Shen Zhui's personal asset, aside from the small amount of tribute, all produce from the land belonged to Shen Zhui.
The Human Emperor's grant was primarily honorary, only the tangible benefits of the land made Shen Zhui a bit joyful.
Because although he was a first-rank viscount, he had a tract of land akin to that of a third-rank earl on the outskirts of Ten Thousand Peaks City.
