As time passed and the Kingdom of Dawn grew stronger, this kind of virtual rank would be removed when all the soldiers' cultivation base had been completely improved. This was the benefit of being the first. Once the system was completely formed, no matter how talented one was, they still had to start from a small soldier in the army and improve step by step. They had to continuously make military achievements in order to be promoted quickly.
Basically, it was impossible to be like now, where as long as one had talent, once they joined, they could be promoted.
This was the difference between joining first and joining later.
"Thank you, Country Lord!"
