“How about you take care of the great demon then, Great General?”

“I don’t have the ability!” Meng Bai said angrily.

He finally regained some of his Great Xia’s God of War’s composure and said seriously, “There’s a great demon in the Demon Realm and more than ten first-rank martial artists…”

“Wrong.” Zhou Shu shook his head. “More than a hundred first-rank demonic beasts have come from the Demon Realm this time. I’ve killed a few, but I don’t know if anyone else has killed any. I estimate that there are no less than a hundred first-rank experts in the Demon Realm.”

“A hundred first-rank martial artists?” Meng Bai frowned and looked at the others.

Including Meng Bai, there were only seven first-rank martial artists in the Great Xia army!

The number of first-rank experts in Great Xia should be considered high among the Ten Nations’ armies.

Great Qin might have more, but not by much.

Even if there was an average of seven first-rank martial artists in each nation, it was only a total of 70 first-rank martial artists!

This was a difference of 30 first-rank martial artists compared to the Demon Realm!

Just these 30 first-rank martial artists were enough to make the Ten Nations’ armies suffer. Moreover, the overall strength of the Demon Realm army was even above the Ten Nations’ armies!

For a moment, everyone fell silent.

“If we can hold out for three years and then leave this world, the Demon Realm won’t be able to do anything when this space closes,” Luo Ling said softly.

They all rolled their eyes at him.

If it was that simple, why bother with the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament?

Wasn’t the purpose of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament to weaken the strength of the Demon Realm and relieve the pressure on the protective barrier outside the Ten Nations Continent?

Not to mention whether they could last until three years later, even if they really retreated then, what could they do?

If they couldn’t weaken the strength of the Demon Realm, the Demon Realm might break through the barrier and invade the Ten Nations.

Even Meng Bai fell silent.

When armies fought, the weak never really defeated the strong.

Any victory was just luck and coincidence..

The so-called war depended on each other’s strength.

The Ten Nations’ armies were far inferior to the Demon Realm’s army in every aspect. How could they fight this war?

“Three years is a long time. It’s still too early to think about what will happen in three years,” Zhou Shu said.

“Everyone, I came here mainly to discuss with you how to break out of this encirclement.

“Right now, we’re fighting a protracted war, so we still have to conserve as much strength as possible.

“General Mi Ziwen will lead a thousand elite soldiers to coordinate outside. As for what you need to do, you’re the experts.

“As for the dozen or so first-rank demonic beasts, I’ll stop them.”

Zhou Shu pondered for a moment and said, “Before the great demon arrives, we have to break out successfully. Otherwise, I might not have the strength to stop the other first-rank martial artists of the Demon Realm.”

Zhou Shu’s presence should be the only good news Meng Bai and the others had heard.

The current situation diluted their excitement about obtaining the Cosmic Bangles.

Meng Bai came to the table and faced the simple map. He summoned everyone and began to discuss the breakout.

Zhou Shu was not interested in marching to war, so he simply walked out and arrived at Wang Xin’s camp.

Although they were allies, Wang Xin hadn’t merged with Meng Bai and the others. He was stationed on a hill opposite the Great Xia army camp with his thousand men.

They were on opposite sides.

“Greetings, Side-by-side King!”

As soon as Zhou Shu walked into the simple military camp, he heard the soldiers greet him.

Zhou Shu nodded slightly, indicating that there was no need to be so polite.

“You wanted to see me, Your Highness?”

With the Overlord Spear on his back, Wang Xin looked extremely powerful.

He was even more burly than Mei Wushang and naturally domineering. He was a perfect match for this Overlord Spear.

“Wang Xin, let me ask you. Who is the commander of the Great Qin army this time?” Zhou Shu went straight to the point.

“It’s my grandfather.” Wang Xin didn’t understand why he asked, but he still answered honestly.

“Wang Mu? How many first-rank martial artists are there in the Great Qin army?” Zhou Shu continued asking.

“First-rank martial artists?” Wang Xin thought for a moment. “I think there are eleven of them.”

Eleven first-rank martial artists, Great Qin was indeed the strongest of the Ten Nations.

“What about second-rank martial artists?” Zhou Shu asked.

“Second-rank martial artists? I’m not too sure.” Wang Xin said.

Who paid attention to these things?

Who would pay special attention to second-rank martial artists?

If Zhou Shu knew what he was thinking, he would definitely roll his eyes at him.

What right did a fourth-rank martial artist have to criticize second-rank martial artists?

“Wang Xin, don’t you think you’re an embarrassment?” Zhou Shu suddenly changed the topic.

“I—” Wang Xin’s eyes widened. How am I an embarrassment?

Why did he attack me personally?

Even if you’re the Side-by-side King, you can’t spout nonsense!

“You’re also the leader of the younger generation. My big brother, Mi Ziwen, is already a second-rank martial artist, and you’re still a fourth-rank martial artist,” Zhou Shu said with disdain. “If I were you, I would be too ashamed to go out and meet anyone.”

Wang Xin: “…”

God damn it, how can you compare us like this?

Mi Ziwen is a few years older than me, okay?

Wait, didn’t he just break through to the third rank?

How did he become a second-rank martial artist?

Could it be that he broke through again after the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament began?

In that case, I really can’t compare to him…

“I’m already at the bottleneck of the third rank. It won’t be long before I can break through to the third rank!

“In five years at most, I can also break through to the second rank! In twenty years, I can become a first-rank martial artist! Mi Ziwen might not be able to become a first-rank martial artist!” Wang Xin said confidently.

“Is that all you’ve got?” Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. “What a waste of my Overlord Spear!”

Wang Xin: “…”

The veins on his forehead bulged. If not for the fact that Zhou Shu was the Side-by-side King of Great Qin, he…

He didn’t dare attack either…

Zhou Shu was an existence that could fight the Qin Emperor to a draw. No matter how arrogant Wang Xin was, he didn’t think that he could fight Zhou Shu now.

If he did, wouldn’t he be asking for a beating?

“It’ll be too late if it takes you twenty years to become a first-rank martial artist,” Zhou Shu said. “I thought you could make me worry less. I didn’t expect that I would still have to worry about you.”

Zhou Shu sighed repeatedly, making Wang Xin feel awkward.

Did you come here just to be sarcastic?

It’s fine if you don’t reward me with a Cosmic Bangle, but do you have to provoke me?

“I have an Essence Cleansing Pill here. It’s an ancient divine medicine that has the effect of cleansing your essence and meridians. After consuming it, it can improve your physique and increase your cultivation speed.

“You got a good deal!”

He tossed it casually.

Wang Xin subconsciously caught it, and the resentment in his heart immediately dissipated.

Essence Cleansing Pill? Improve my physique and increase my cultivation speed?

Is there such a magical pill in the world?

For me?

Wang Xin was full of gratitude. It turned out the reason His Highness didn’t reward me with a Cosmic Bangle wasn’t that he’s biased but because he’s prepared the Essence Cleansing Pill for me.

Compared to the Essence Cleansing Pill, the Cosmic Bangle is nothing!

“Your Highness, how can I accept this…” Wang Xin said nervously. This Essence Cleansing Pill was really too precious. He felt a little ashamed to accept it.

Although he called Zhou Shu a king, Wang Xin knew that this Side-by-side King had never benefited much from the Great Qin…

“I’m glad you know.”

Zhou Shu said angrily, “If not for the grim situation on the battlefield and the fact that you’re a promising talent, do you think I would have given you the Essence Cleansing Pill?

“Hurry up and swallow it, then work hard at cultivating. Aren’t you ashamed of your fourth-rank cultivation?!

“Hurry up and become a Grandmaster. Then break the formation and kill the enemy. I gave you the Overlord Spear because I wanted to see you become a true formation breaking overlord!

“Work hard. After killing ten thousand demon beasts, I will reward you with a Cosmic Bangle. If you can break through to the second rank in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, I’ll give you other benefits!”
