After half a day’s training, they only felt as if their limbs were no longer their own, and they wished they were dead.
To be honest, so thought about giving up, because they were almost at their limits.
However, rembering the oath they had taken earlier, where anyone who couldn’t endure would be considered a coward, none of them wanted to be that person. So, ultimately, they persevered by clenching their teeth and relying on sheer willpower!
Those three days were incredibly torturous for them!
But as the training continued, they began to feel more excited.
They finally understood the power of this Array.
They believed that as long as they relied on this Battle Formation, barring any accidents, securing the ace position this ti would be feasible.
Confidence appeared on each of their faces.
Lin Fan was naturally observing all this.
To be honest, Lin Fan was sowhat worried about the current situation.
As the saying goes, pride cos before a fall!
Those armies that frequently erged victorious always maintained a sense of respect and awe for their enemies. It was precisely because they never underestimated any opponent that they remained unbeaten!
Lin Fan knew he needed to find a way to remind these fellows.
Otherwise, with their current attitude, even if they secured the ace this ti, they would eventually et their doom in future battles!
"Alright!"
At that mont, Lin Fan loudly said, "Everyone, co here and sit down. Let’s take a break!"
Lin Fan was actually initiating a break?
This surprised everyone!
A team mber loudly said: "Captain, we’re not tired at all right now. We feel full of strength. The ace assessnt challenge is tomorrow, so let’s train a bit more today, it’s fine!"
Others also said, "Yes, we can continue training!"
"Hehe!"
Lin Fan chuckled and then solemnly said, "Let’s rest for a while first!"
Seeing the serious expression on Lin Fan’s face, after exchanging glances, they could see the seriousness in each other’s eyes. They knew that Lin Fan wasn’t really asking them to rest, but had sothing important to say.
The team then walked over and quietly sat down.
They sat not to rest, but to listen to what Lin Fan had to say.
Once everyone was seated, Lin Fan suddenly asked, "Ladies and gentlen, I want to ask you a question!"
Everyone was stunned, not knowing what question Lin Fan was going to ask.
Lin Fan continued, "What I want to ask is, what do you think of Zong Ze?"
Zong Ze?
At that mont, their expressions changed!
Zong Ze was a legendary figure in the Dasong Dynasty; a decade ago, he was a widely acclaid general. It was said that General Zong Ze was victorious in a hundred battles, but he died in his last because of a failure.
However, Zong Ze’s ultimate fate was tragic, he still remained an idol in the entire Dasong Dynasty.
Scar Face and the others couldn’t understand why Lin Fan suddenly brought up Zong Ze and didn’t know what he ant, so they remained silent.
Lin Fan’s eyes swept over everyone and seeing that no one spoke, he pointed to one of them and said, "You, stand up and speak!"
After the man stood up, he said, "Captain, General Zong Ze is the idol of our younger generation, victorious in a hundred battles, he is the Guardian of the Dasong Dynasty!"
"Hehe!"
Lin Fan smiled dismissively and asked, "Let ask you then, ultimately, why did Zong Ze fail?"
The man replied, "General Zong Ze underestimated the enemy while crossing a river, ultimately falling into an ambush and perishing!"
"Yes!"
Lin Fan looked up to the sky and said, "A Great General like Zong Ze, ultimately due to his pride and overconfidence, thinking he was invincible, fell into the enemy’s trap and was killed. What more about us?"
"This..."
Everyone suddenly understood Lin Fan’s point, thinking about their current mindset, and began sweating profusely.
Indeed, even soone as formidable as Great General Zong Ze ended up killed due to his pride and underestimating the enemy. What about themselves?
What right did they have to be proud?
"Do you understand my point?" Lin Fan asked again.
Everyone nodded, saying, "Understood!"
"Then, you know what to do, right?" Lin Fan asked further.
"Understood!"
Everyone spoke again.
"Alright, let’s continue training!" Lin Fan waved his hand and said: "Of course, if soone does not want to cultivate, they can go back to rest. After all, the path of cultivation also requires a balance of work and rest. If you only know how to relentlessly cultivate without rest, you will eventually suffer a loss!"
Scar Face said: "Captain, let’s all go back to rest. During the rest period, we can seriously consider the Array. While thinking about it, we can improve the Array ourselves!"
Everyone else also nodded.
Lin Fan said: "Alright, since that’s the case, then you all go back to rest. Tomorrow, we set our sights on becoming the top team!"
Set our sights on becoming the top team!
Upon hearing these four words from Lin Fan, everyone felt the blood in their bodies start to burn.
The ti for the ace assessnt had finally arrived.
Early in the morning, the twenty small teams participating in the assessnt stood quietly at the forefront of the square, each team looking at each other with deep hostility in their eyes.
Under normal circumstances, only one ace would erge today, but now twenty teams had signed up, showing that this competition would be quite fierce.
Lin Fan also stood quietly at the front of his team, with Scar Face beside him.
At this mont, Scar Face felt sowhat apprehensive, whispering to Lin Fan: "Captain, I see the other teams that signed up are all very formidable. Can we... really do this?"
Scar Face’s heart inevitably began to lose confidence.
Although the other team mbers did not speak, it was clear from their anxious expressions that they were not very optimistic about the assessnt and lacked confidence.
"Heh!"
Lin Fan suddenly gave a laugh and then said, "Scared?"
"I..."
Scar Face wanted to say sothing, but at that mont, he found himself at a loss for words.
Lin Fan said calmly: "Don’t worry, we will not lose... today’s ace will be none other than us. We’ll be bathing in the Dragon Washing Pool soon, hehe!"
Seeing Lin Fan so confident, everyone couldn’t help but feel a little hopeful.
Boom Boom Boom...
Just then, a thunderous noise erupted not far away, as if thousands of troops were sweeping towards them, even causing the ground to start shaking.
"This..."
Many people, upon hearing this earth-shattering noise, felt sowhat terrified, thinking, "Could it be that enemies are attacking?"
So instinctively prepared for battle.
But they quickly felt that it was unlikely. After all, this was the Imperial City of the Dasong Dynasty, and enemies, no matter how powerful, would not be able to enter the Imperial City of the Dasong Dynasty. In other words, if the enemies truly entered the Imperial City, it would an the end of the Dasong Dynasty.
Boom Boom Boom...
An even more frenzied loud noise seed to burst eardrums.
Soon, everyone saw that three thousand Armored Soldiers, like a tidal wave, swept towards them.
These were the elite of the Dynasty.
Once the three thousand Armored Soldiers arrived close to where Lin Fan and his team were, they quickly stationed themselves and ford a strange formation. Looking at it, there was a high platform in the very center of this formation.
It should be noted that this high platform was not there before, but was brought here along with the three thousand Armored Soldiers.
The three thousand Armored Soldiers stood quietly there, but gave off an aura like hungry wolves, ready to devour everyone present.
"Gulp!"
Soone couldn’t help but swallow nervously. Honestly, they felt afraid.
Before, most people were very confident, thinking that with their recent training and unparalleled strength, they had beco top-tier warriors among all the warriors of the Dynasty, the elite of the elite.
But now...
They finally realized the huge gap between themselves and the true elite.
Swoosh...
Suddenly, a figure appeared on the high platform among the three thousand Armored Soldiers—it was Bai Paoyi.
At this mont, Bai Paoyi, dressed in a white robe, looked ethereal and saintly, giving off an immortal aura.
"Roar Roar Roar!"
As Bai Paoyi landed on the high platform, the three thousand Armored Soldiers burst out with a roaring sound, as if it could pierce the skies. This terrified the baby soldiers once again, with so even starting to sweat in their palms. Although the three thousand Armored Soldiers didn’t move, they felt as if an unmatched aura was sweeping over them, causing their hearts to race.
"So powerful!"
Even Scar Face, standing by Lin Fan’s side, couldn’t help but exclaim in fear.
Being a child of nobility, well-experienced and knowledgeable, even he was impressed by the formidable presence of the three thousand Armored Soldiers.
Lin Fan remained silent, just nodding inwardly, thinking: "It seems Bai Paoyi plans to use the presence of the three thousand Armored Soldiers to suppress the spirit of every team competing to beco the ace. Once their spirits weaken, not to ntion contending for the ace, just encountering these three thousand Armored Soldiers would likely send them retreating in defeat, devoid of any fighting spirit."
Lin Fan looked over his own team mbers and saw that most of them were already pale, with so trembling, seemingly about to fall at any mont.
