Three days quickly passed, and Orchid had already adapted to cultivating daily. Although she still needed the supervision of the Demonic Wolf, she was now able to maintain her concentration, with her distracted monts growing shorter and shorter.
Even though the strength of the other rcenaries had not increased significantly, their actions were swifter and they were more obedient. At least they were capable of executing orders properly now.
Ye Tiandao was in the midst of training, when Ye Liuyun's clone outside discovered that more than a dozen martial practitioners were rushing over.
The people who ca were all initial to mid-stage martial practitioners of the Third Realm. The numbers weren't many, but it was enough to deal with Master Wei and his n already.
Ye Liuyun imdiately instructed Ye Tiandao to halt the training and prepared them to face the enemy. The rcenaries also imdiately geared up.
Then, Orchid was called out, riding on Ye Liuyun's shoulder to watch the battle.
She had never before witnessed a real bloody fight, so Ye Liuyun specifically wanted her to see it. The world of Martial Arts Dao was inherently brutal, if one had not enough realm, death becos one's destiny.
"Master Wei, are your n ready?" A man with a goatee beard was the first one to address Master Wei.
At this, Master Wei replied, "We have a new leader now, his na's Ye Liuyun. I'm no longer the leader of Tiger rcenary!"
"Oh? New man in charge? Then call him out to et us!" The man with the goatee beard directly commanded.
"He said that you're not worthy to et him!" Master Wei answered, the grin on his face making his words seem all the more ludicrous.
"What? What do you an by that?"
At this mont, the goatee-bearded man also noticed Ye Tiandao, who was at the Fifth Realm, standing at the front of the group and this quite startled him.
"I see you've found an expert, no wonder you're so confident! But, Master Wei, you know that we also have powerful backers. Before you challenge us, think about the consequences!" The man with the goatee beard threatened.
However, Master Wei simply laughed and replied, "I know who your backer is. After we wipe you out, we'll take your place. Do you think that soone will stick their neck out for you when you yourselves have no strength?"
Upon hearing this, an idea co up to the man's mind. Feigning angry, he said, "Very well, you're bold. Everything you said, I'll report to our leader! If you've got the nerve, don't run. Wait for our leader to confront you directly!"
With that, he turned and prepared to make a swift exit with his group.
"Kill them!"
Ye Liuyun shouted from a distance.
Ye Tiandao imdiately dash out.
"Run!"
As soon as she moved, the man with the goat beard hollered in alarm and started running.
However, his speed was not as fast as Ye Tiandao's blade. Using her Spatial Force, Ye Tiandao struck him at the nape of his neck with a single blow, cleanly decapitating him. After that, she swung left and right, decapitating the other two who were attempting to escape.
"No rcy for those who flee!" Ye Tiandao declared afterward.
The remaining n instantly threw away their weapons and knelt in surrender. Ye Tiandao was simply too powerful, they didn't even have a chance to fight back.
Ye Tiandao then addressed them, "We were in the middle of training. Hand over your Interspatial Rings and stay here to help us with drills."
"Okay, okay!" the surrendered quickly agreed. Then, they even eagerly gathered the Interspatial Rings and weapons from their deceased comrades and handed them to Ye Tiandao.
Ye Tiandao did not take them, but instead allowed Master Wei to collect them.
She then called for a martial practitioner to spar with the n from the Tiger rcenary.
While observing their sparring, Ye Tiandao would point out their mistakes and let them carry on the sparring until they were capable of defeating the martial practitioner earlier, only then they would switch groups.
Seeing this, the other martial practitioners imdiately fell to their knees and begged for rcy.
Another one tried to take to his heels. Ye Tiandao, without even glancing her way, swung her blade backward, cleaving the martial practitioner in half.
"As long as you win, I'll let you go. If you tryna run away or refuse to fight, I'll kill you straight away!" Ye Tiandao told them.
Under Ye Tiandao's threats and incentives, these martial practitioners continued to serve as practice opponents and fought desperately.
There were even two martial practitioners who actually managed to win.
Ye Tiandao truly did let them go after that.
However, the clone waiting outside directly attacked their Divine Souls and devoured them. Then, he fed the bodies to the feral beasts.
Ye Liuyun then awarded the corpses on the ground to the Demonic Wolf that was guarding Orchid.
While he was watching the fight earlier, he noticed that every ti Ye Tiandao killed soone, Orchid would tense up and clutch tightly onto Ye Liuyun's clothes.
Now, seeing the Demonic Wolf tear and devour the corpses, she was even more scared of it.
"Are you scared?" Ye Liuyun put her back into the cave and asked her.
Orchid nervously nodded her head.
Ye Liuyun also took this opportunity to educate her, "If you don't wanna be killed, you must practice diligently! No one can protect you forever and let you rely on them for the rest of your life! Only when you beco strong can you protect yourself and the ones you want to protect!"
At his words, Orchid nodded her head in slight understanding.
Ye Liuyun felt quite reluctant in his heart, but he still turned around and left, letting her continue practicing.
These cruel truths shouldn't have been revealed to her so early. But here was the battlefield on the border, Plus, the Martial Arts Dao world was already cruel, and the border battlefield was even a place where the strong prey on the weak.
The earlier she understood these truths, the faster she would beco strong.
The other rcenaries also beca more stimulated, and thus trained even more earnestly.
During break, Master Wei anxiously asked Ye Liuyun, "The two who ran away, will they go back and report?"
"No, I already killed them," Ye Liuyun responded nonchalantly.
Only then did Master Wei understand. He then took out so resources and asked Ye Liuyun how to distribute them.
"Just appoint a person to divide it according to how y'all previously done," Ye Liuyun casually proposed.
Master Wei agreed and went off to make the arrangents.
The following periods were filled with ceaseless training. It was also the process of integration between the rcenaries and Ye Liuyun, Ye Tiandao.
Besides enhancing their abilities, it was also important to foster trust and camaraderie between them.
"If you wanna survive, wanna live better than others, you need to work harder! If not, what makes you any different?" This was what Ye Liuyun often preached to them.
Ye Liuyun also ordered Ye Tiandao and He Lianxiu to empty their current Interspatial Rings, transferring everything into his Spatial World.
Apart from their own cultivation, they could no longer use the resources they obtained before but would only use what they acquired here.
This way, it was easier to evaluate gains and understand the feelings of other rcenaries.
As the leader, Ye Liuyun, besides his own share, also needed to reserve resources for communal use.
Three days later, the Poison Dragon rcenary brought twenty more people, one of whom was their vice-captain, a man in the initial stage of the Fourth Realm.
As a result, they were all intimidated by Ye Tiandao and beca their training partners.
Their vice-captain even died under the joint attack of Master Wei and two other martial practitioners in the initial stages of the Third Realm.
With this, the other rcenaries finally understood the advantages of this formation and beca more diligent in learning.
