The First Head of the Martial Hall wasn’t quite as prepared as an ordinary Martial Ancestor when it came to employing their own resources, which was truly an ironic twist of fate.

Yet Tang Sen’s attitude remained quite positive. Not being affected by this situation, his calmness offered some respite to those facing the soon-to-be strengthened Mi Clan united forces, helping to ease their nerves.

When the vast Mi Clan united army joined forces with the defenders of the western ridge, the leader of the allied forces, who had planned to flatten the North Mountain in one swift move, was taken aback by the news from the front lines.

“This morning, our spirit crow observed that the Tang Clan seemed to have discovered the movement of the allied forces’ reinforcements in advance. Savage beasts and Fierce Realm warriors have been constantly assigned to the southwest of the road since morning. The Martial Ancestors who were switched out from the Tang’s defense were joined by various clans allied with the Tang Clan. The number of Fierce Realm warriors in the two locations is not less than seventy, and there are no less than fifty savage beasts.” Sect Head Mi Hai said solemnly, “With our current forces, we can’t break through the line in one go, we’ll have to proceed slowly.”

This feeling was extremely frustrating. Although they had greatly strengthened, the enemy seemed to be catching up without falling behind, which poured cold water on the leader of the allied forces who had been looking forward to a vigorous battle. He was at a loss for what to do.

“Does Sect Head Mi think that our united forces can be stalled by mere beasts?” Not liking the hesitant behavior of the allied forces leader and Mi Hai’s words which dampen their spirit, Bai Zhen Yuan stepped forward and said, “Let’s not even mention the Tang Clan’s defense force is already at a numerical disadvantage. Those savage beasts that need beast seals to control, once injured and incited, won’t distinguish between friend and foe. The Martial Ancestors of the Tang Clan might be hard to kill, but can’t the savage beasts be killed?”

“If the great army is pressuring the area, the defending troops at a numerical disadvantage will have to use the beasts to break through. With our combat power, killing three to five beasts in one day is easy as taking an item from a bag. In at most half a month, these beasts of the Tang Clan will be wiped out, and by then, the defense line of seventy Martial Ancestors will be broken in one hit!” Bai Zhen Yuan, who had studied military books at a young age, had quickly thought of a countermeasure after hearing Mi Hai’s words. Martial Ancestors are hard to kill because they are equipped with Xuanji Jade. Although savage beasts have rough skin and strong vitality, their massive bodies also make them easy targets for Spirit Art.

After all, when Spirit Art was first created, it was meant for killing large beasts and beast kings. Even the weapons used by the Human Race were intentionally made large to cause sufficient damage to the beasts.

Although martial arts have been thriving for a thousand years, the skills to kill beasts won’t be forgotten. Compared to killing Tang Clan’s Martial Ancestors, those fifty beasts seem like juicy meat on a plate in his eyes. So he really did not understand why Mi Hai decided to shy away from North Mountain’s defense line because of these beasts.

Though Bai Zhen Yuan’s words were overly ambitious, as a commander of the allied front, he was tolerant enough to listen. Not to mention, Bai Zhen Yuan’s idea was also very operational. So, after listening to his words, Mi Hai asked everyone, “What do you think of Brother Zhen Yuan’s plan? Is it feasible?”

If they were all from the Mi Clan, he would have commanded united action with a single order. But as an allied force composed of various clans, aside from him as the overall commander, there were also small teams and leaders from the seven clans, so he could only negotiate.

Perhaps that is one of the reasons why he hadn’t broken through the North Mountain for so long. After all, compared to the united Tang Clan’s Martial Ancestors, the will to fight of the allied forces was much weaker, with many using their Xuanji Jade escape mechanism at the first sign of damage to their armor.

They beautifully termed this precaution, but in reality, it was just an excuse for fear of getting hurt. After all, they weren’t fighting for their families, so where would these allied forces get their motivation from?

But this time, the allied forces were not just fighting for the Mi Clan, but also jingling with the prospect of private looting. The passionate allied Martial Ancestors of course, wanted to land on North Mountain and explore. After all, the prosperity and the deep foundations of the Tang Clan was common knowledge seeing the Mi Clan.

“Elder Bai is correct!”

“I think this plan is feasible.”

“Kill the beasts first, then break through North Mountain.”

For the first time, Mi Hai felt such a high morale among the allied forces. They unanimously agreed and began to devise a new plan to seize the mountain and slaughter the beasts.

…

North Mountain, Sky-touching Platform

“You say you can’t find Tang Zuo, and you can’t find those top Martial Ancestors from the Dark Thunder Hall?” Tang Luo asked the trembling Cai Bu Chu with full of doubts.

It was indeed strange. Although the base of the Dark Thunder Hall was established early on, besides a few stewards and tutors, only the Transcendence Squad of hundreds of people was training day and night. On the other hand, Tang Zuo and the rest of the Martial Ancestors seemed to have disappeared since the start of the war.

“Did you ask the Wind Media Department, what does Director Tang Feng say?” Tang Luo continued to ask, frowning. He didn’t believe that at such a crucial time of the tribal war, Tang Zuo would still have the leisure to accept any city expansion tasks. He just wanted to find Tang Zuo now and ask him face to face what was going on with this military institution that was poised to replace the Martial Hall.

The young man, who had a fear of heights, felt the platform under his feet shaking continuously and answered in a trembling voice, “The Director said… it’s a secret and cannot be divulged.”

“Oh?” Tang Luo suddenly realized that this matter was not simple. Even though he was just an acting Defense Chief, in times of war, he still had a lot of authority. He could even mobilize Martial Ancestors from the sect, let alone a third-rate military institution.

Considering his relationship with Tang Feng, even if it was a genuinely secret mission, Tang Feng would not deliberately hide it from him. But Tang Feng had Cai Bu Chu deliver this message.

It indicates that Tang Zuo and the Martial Ancestors from the Dark Thunder Hall carried a heavy responsibility. The responsibility was key to the family’s prosperity and victory or defeat. Otherwise, Tang Feng would not be so secretive.

His intention was very clear; he wanted Tang Luo to stop asking and looking. The Dark Thunder Hall would not neglect its duty.

“Interesting.” Tang Luo narrowed his eyes, crossed his arms, and stroked his chin, his mind racing.

Nine top-level Martial Ancestors and shrine offerings were enough to stabilize the southwest defense line, yet Tang Zhi still did not let the Dark Thunder Hall participate in the war but arranged a more important task for them.

Looking back, he realized that ever since the Sky-touching Platform was built, he had not seen the Martial Ancestors from the Dark Thunder Hall and their leader. So where exactly did these people go?

“Alright, you can leave. You have no part in this,” Tang Luo said to Cai Bu Chu, who was nervously clutching the edge of the table. “Tell me, isn’t it embarrassing that a Wind Media is afraid of heights?”

“Can’t a martial artist be afraid of heights?!” Cai Bu Chu felt unjustly humiliated and cried out, “Even though I’m afraid of heights, it doesn’t prevent me from being an excellent Wind Media!”

“Alright, alright, if you don’t think it’s an issue, that’s fine,” Tang Luo shrugged. “I’ll introduce you to another martial artist who’s afraid of the dark, and you guys can form a team.”
