The King was not concerned about Ye Qingtang's abilities. He gave her the title of Kingdom Knight firstly because she had made a contribution to the war, and secondly to motivate other warriors in the kingdom. This signaled to them that if they were willing to contribute their strength to the Kingdom, the Kingdom would reward their loyalty.
The King gestured for Ye Qingtang to pin the Kingdom Knight badge on herself. When she pinned on the badge, her keen senses perceived the unhappy looks from the other Kingdom Knights.
"Alright, you may leave. If you need anything, you can discuss it with the others." After the King finished dealing with this matter, his focus returned to the battlefield before him.
Ye Qingtang and the vice-general exited the hall. The other Kingdom Knights also left the hall.
"Knight Tang, General Mark would be delighted to know that you've become a Kingdom Knight," the vice-general said to Ye Qingtang with a smile.
