At the Honorable Martial Group, the atmosphere in the 3rd Gold Branch was very heavy.
The Light Blade Army was formed with the 3rd Gold Branch as its backbone, and news of the Red Leaf Army being wiped out already spread. That made the 3rd Gold Branch extremely nervous, without a question, the next target was definitely the Light Blade Army.
“What do we do?” You Li asked.
Compared to Sean’s 10th Gold Branch, the 3rd Gold Branch was much stronger. The current gold branch was already not like the past, the 9th Gold Branch was destroyed, the 7th Gold Branch had suffered heavy losses, and were at their last breath. Although the higher ups had decided to rebuild the 9th Gold Branch, and give the 7th Gold Branch more support, but at the current moment, they still did not have any improvement.
It was not only that, the number of gold ranked martial artists being exhausted was extremely shocking, the strength of each branch suffered different levels of loss, building an army also became the only option for each of the Branches.
“Shou Xin has built a Star Treasure Stronghold.” The Vice Master heaved a sigh of relief: “He used all their treasures to build the Star Treasure Stronghold.”
“That’s good!” You Li relaxed, revealing a smile on his face: “Constructing defensive structures is Shou Xin’s forte, since Shou Xin had already decided to defend to the death, it would not be so easy for others to penetrate his defense line.”
“Yes, Shou Xin’s ability to construct defensive structures is incomparable, no one can compare to him.” The Vice Master laughed: “Furthermore, this time, Shou Xin had constructed a truly unprecedented Star Treasures Stronghold!”
“Oh, how unprecedented is this scale?” You Li asked curiously.
The Vice Master extended out two fingers, his tone filled with an obvious exclamation: “Over 2,000 treasures! Shou Xin was truly willing to give up his hard earned savings!”
“2,000 pieces!” You Li was in awe, he then burst out laughing: “That is definitely a well fortified defense! I would truly like to see the expression of those saints there, hmph, Tang Tian thinks that by bringing a bunch of independent saints, he can do whatever he likes, too naive! Wait till our saints starts appearing, they will know what is a real saint all about.”
The Vice Master had the same sentiments, in their eyes, the Independent Saints were poor and low in standard, other than their spirit domain, they had nothing. He praised: “Exactly, if the saints had not gone to the [Temple] before, just with our branch’s saints it would be enough to wipe them all out!”
The gold branches had a huge number of gold ranked martial artists, hence they frequently had martial artists being bestowed as saints, but following the regulations of the Martial Group, every single Honorable Martial Group martial artist that was bestowed as a saint had to enter the [Temple].
The [Temple] was the final target of every Honorable Martial martial artist, as long they could enter the [Temple], then it would mean that they could almost have everything they dreamt of.
The [Temple] was a secretive and grand place, even they had no rights to enter. Even if it was a high status Honorable Martial elder, if he had not stepped in the saint domain, he was unable to enter the [Temple]. Only Saints had the privilege to enter the [Temple], this was the Iron Rule of the Temple that had been in place for over 1,000 years.
“We will watch how Tang Tian breaks his head in Shou Xin’s hands!” You Li laughed heartily: “With this battle, Shou Xin’s reputation will definitely soar!”
The entire 3rd Gold Branch were in endless joyous clamor.
The Honorable Martial Group in the past had a great deal of restrictions, promotions were difficult, but following the growing intensity of the wars, outstanding military service had been raised to an unprecedented stage. With the Light Blade Army’s merits, as it’s core, the status of the 3rd Gold Branch would definitely soar as well.
.
“I heard the 10th Gold Branch’s [Light of Autumn] have had great progress.” The Vice Master pointed out.
You Li nodded, acknowledging the information. The annihilation of the Red Leaf Army had struck the 10th Gold Branch greatly. If Ye Shou Xin could win the battle, then they could possibly take the chance to swallow the 10th Gold Branch’s position, if that happens, their strength would soar greatly.
Ye Shou Xin, we will all rely on you!
You Li said quietly in his heart, he knew the importance of the upcoming battle, as of now, all the Honorable Martial Elder’s gaze were fixated at the upcoming battle.
Paper could never cover fire, and the Honorable Martial Group also had not thought of covering their tracks, they immediately announced the news at the first available moment, causing an uproar in the entire Heaven’s Road.
Tang Tian had led over 40 saints to massacre the Red Leaf Army!
With such explosive news,it spread across the entire Heaven’s Road like wind, all the various major constellations were at a loss of words. Honorable Martial Group severely criticized Tang Tian’s actions, framing Fu Ying, and the saints who were forced under Fu Ying were all his accomplices, they helped Tang Tian set up and harm Fu Ying and the Honorable Martial Group.
Honorable Martial Group hence declared that they would use any means necessary to punish Ursa Major Constellation.
Leo Constellation expressed their welcome for Ursa Major Constellation at the very first moment, and even proclaimed that they might support Ursa Major Constellation. This declaration immediately made Honorable Martial Group deem them as enemies, compared to Ursa Major Constellation, Leo Constellation was an enemy of a different level.
At a point of time, the Heaven’s Road was extremely lively with the sudden violent developments.
Everyone’s attention was unknowingly attracted to Tang Tian and the 42 saints that he was leading, no one had ever thought that in another land, another battle was about to raise its curtains. While the Light Blade Army was still looking for the mechanical army, Bing had already led the mechanical army back to Ursa Major Constellation without anyone realizing.
****************
An army of mechanical spirit weapons were flying along the mountain range closely at a very high speed.
“Keep up! Do not lose the group!’
Ah Lun gathered his strength to encourage his companions, he felt as if his whole body had become numb, his lungs burnt like they were on fire. For three days and nights, without water, they forced themselves to travel without break and rest at a fast speed, even he who was extremely persevering, felt that he was close to his limit.
