Zhao Wuling led Ye Jingtian and Li Yi into the building.
At this mont, Li Yi could clearly sense that there were many powerful auras within, so even making his heart palpitate, indicating that there were indeed extraordinary experts stationed here.
"Although Earth began its cultivation journey not long ago, at such a critical juncture of survival, so top-level experts will definitely erge. After all, the foundation of a world should not be underestimated," Li Yi thought to himself.
He started his cultivation journey later, but now he had the strength to confront soone at the Mahayana Realm, and those evolvers who started even earlier than him must have reached even higher realms.
In stable tis, these top experts might have kept a low profile.
But with multiple worlds joining forces to invade Earth, these hidden experts will surely co forward one by one.
Although their numbers can’t compare to other worlds, they can temporarily stabilize part of the situation.
However, Zhao Wuling didn’t take the two to the combat hall but instead to an adjoining office, where an artificial intelligence robot, not a human, was seated.
"Ye Jingtian and Li Yi from Base No. 8 are here to support the Earth Defense Line, please register them," Zhao Wuling said.
The AI responded, "Okay, identity information has been registered, thank you both for your support."
After registration was complete, Zhao Wuling led the two to a hall.
Many people were gathered here, fiercely discussing the recent battle situation.
"This way of fighting won’t work. The Demon God Realm and the Xuanxian Continent are becoming more tightly knit. Once on the battlefield, we’ll be jointly attacked by the Great Demons and Mahayana Realm experts. Their goal is simple: to slowly wear down Earth’s high-level combat power on this battlefield. Once we’ve been sufficiently weakened, Earth will entirely beco soone else’s territory."
"With Earth’s current strength, there’s no way to counter the foundations of these two worlds in one go. The reason they haven’t outright devoured Earth is probably to wear us down until we voluntarily give up, surrendering ground and leaving cross-world. It’s a slow knife cutting through flesh."
"Wasn’t this situation anticipated long ago? From using space to buy ti to now sacrificing a batch of people for ti, it’s all part of the plan. Evolvers have mastered the Cross-border Technique, their potential is significant. Haven’t you noticed the surge of experts erging in the ten bases lately? It used to be tough for evolvers to deal with Sky Demons, but now there are plenty who can handle Great Demons."
"That may be true, but the Demon God Realm is overseen by a Demon King, and the Xuanxian Continent is under the protection of a True Immortal. If things go wrong, the Demon King and True Immortal will surely intervene, and no matter how many experts we have, it won’t matter. Besides, the battlefield will open again soon, and we’ll lose more experts."
"..."
It’s not hard to tell from the discussions that the Earth Defense Line is in a dire situation. Evolvers are being targeted by experts from two worlds teaming up, and the damage is severe, but everyone insists on staying here.
They want to use their lives to buy ti for the remaining over 20 million evolvers on Earth and are unwilling to give up Earth and flee to another world.
And the arrival of Li Yi and Ye Jingtian.
The appearance of two unique auras caused the noisy hall to suddenly quiet down.
"Supporters from Base No. 8 have arrived. I wonder which team is willing to take them." Zhao Wuling spoke up.
"Supporters, huh? Join my team. We’re just missing two people. The last mission had heavy losses, and we haven’t replenished our numbers since," soone almost imdiately stood up to say.
"He Zhiming, your team still has eight people. My team only has three left. Let have them, or my team will be wiped out," another cultivator stood up.
It was a middle-aged man with a sowhat rugged appearance, his armor damaged and stained with blood, indicating he’d just been through a major battle not long ago.
Jiang Yue?
Upon hearing this person speak, the others montarily fell silent.
Every combat team here lacks people, but Jiang Yue’s team is in a particularly dire situation. The last ti they entered the battlefield, ten went in, three returned, and even Jiang Yue himself, the team leader, was gravely injured, narrowly escaping death.
"Jiang Yue, your team is finished. It’s better to disband and rge with others. Recruiting newbies won’t help," soone said after a brief silence.
"Bullshit! The last grudge hasn’t been settled. We can discuss disbanding this team after I kill those two Great Demons," Jiang Yue shouted. "My teammates can’t die in vain. Give these two people, and I can form a team of five. Once the battlefield opens next ti, we’ll have another chance to fight. Alright, this matter is settled. These two are now part of Task Force No. 9."
Not wanting to waste ti arguing, he decisively slamd the table to finalize the matter.
The others, seeing this, said nothing more.
For newcors, it doesn’t matter which combat team they join; they’re going to the battlefield sooner or later. Moreover, there won’t be bias or unfair treatnt due to team differences.
Even though teams differ in number, the battlefield focuses on the total headcount. Often, multiple teams will join the fight together.
The squad system is implented to facilitate cooperation and joint efforts among mbers.
Seeing no objections, Jiang Yue promptly said, "Xiaoyuan."
"Hello, I’m here," the voice of the Smart Brain echoed in the hall.
Jiang Yue said, "Incorporate these two supporters’ information into Task Force No. 9."
"Okay, information integrated. Ye Jingtian, Li Yi, welco to Task Force No. 9," Smart Brain Xiaoyuan’s voice sounded again.
Jiang Yue nodded in satisfaction and then asked, "Who is Ye Jingtian?"
"I am," Ye Jingtian replied.
Jiang Yue said, "My na is Jiang Yue. From now on, we’re comrades, so no need to be so formal. Tell about your strength. Do you have any experience fighting Great Demons?"
"I’ve personally killed a Great Demon right outside Base No. 8," Ye Jingtian replied.
As soon as he said this, several people turned their eyes toward him.
"Killed a Great Demon? Wow, are all the reinforcents this strong? Are you sure you killed it alone, without any help?" The man nad He Zhiming’s eyes lit up, and he quickly ca over.
Being able to kill a Great Demon makes one a pillar at the Earth Defense Line. When on the battlefield, strategies can be formulated around such a person, greatly enhancing the squad’s survival rate.
Ye Jingtian touched the Purple and Blue Twin Swords hanging at his waist and said, "I killed it alone, without any assistance. Perhaps the Great Demon I killed wasn’t at its peak strength. I’ve heard that in the Demon God Realm, there’s a distinction between the strong and the weak Great Demons."
He didn’t exaggerate his achievents, because boasting about one’s strength in a battlefield could easily lead to problems; it’s better to be humble.
Even so, everyone was still shocked.
"Good, very good. Being able to kill a Great Demon, next ti on the battlefield, everyone in the squad, including , will fight around you. Whatever way you want us to cooperate, we’ll do it that way," Jiang Yue said, his dispirited aura disappearing as he laughed heartily.
As long as Ye Jingtian truly has such strength, then giving him free rein could determine the battle’s outco.
"Huh?" Ye Jingtian was taken aback by this, then shook his head with a smile and said, "No, I may be able to kill a Great Demon in desperation, but compared to Li Yi, I’m still far behind. If we go into battle, it’s better to fight around Li Yi."
He hurriedly pushed Li Yi forward.
Having witnessed Li Yi’s strength, Ye Jingtian knew his own limits.
Hmm?
There’s another expert?
Upon hearing this, others couldn’t help but look at Li Yi nearby.
In fact, from the mont these two entered, people had already noticed their unusual auras, especially Li Yi, who seed very impressive. But his battle armor was too luxurious and clean, leading so to question whether he had been in real combat.
After all, having great strength is one thing; having combat experience is another.
On the battlefield, it’s not up to one person. It’s common to encounter top experts being surrounded and killed.
"Li Yi, have you also killed a Great Demon?" Jiang Yue asked.
Whether or not soone has killed a Great Demon is a standard to asure their strength. On the battlefield, the Demon God Realm will start by sending Great Demons, and without the ability to fight them, going to battle is nearly certain death.
"I’ve killed three Great Demons and two Mahayana Cultivators," Li Yi recalled his achievents after leaving the Barbaric World.
The three Great Demons died in the Four Seas and Eight Continents.
The two Mahayana Cultivators: one died on my way back to Tianchang City, and the other was shot by my Red Gold Arrow just before I arrived at the Earth Defense Line.
However, the others in the hall were stunned upon hearing this.
"Killed three Great Demons and two Mahayana Cultivators? Are you serious? You’re not joking, right?"
"Did you kill them all alone? How could that be so unbelievable?"
"Incredible, are these two reinforcents today really this fierce? If the Evolvers on Earth had such strength, we wouldn’t be in such a bind; we would’ve fought back by now."
Despite their shock, they harbored so doubts about Li Yi’s power.
If Li Yi truly defeated three Great Demons and two Mahayana Cultivators by himself, his strength would likely be second only to the Demon King and Human Immortal, practically invincible on the battlefield.
Of course, "invincible" is a bit of an overstatent. With the right coordination, it could completely annihilate the opposing forces in the next battle.
Aside, Ye Jingtian said, "Though I didn’t see Li Yi kill the three Great Demons, we were indeed ambushed by Cultivators on our way. Three Mahayana Cultivators tead up to kill us, and one Mahayana Sword Cultivator was shot down by Li Yi."
"That’s precisely why the other two Mahayana Cultivators were frightened away, allowing us to arrive here safely."
He could vouch for Li Yi’s abilities; Li Yi indeed possessed the power to kill Mahayana Cultivators.
Li Yi didn’t waste words. He took a massive head from the Five Elents Bracelet and tossed it onto the ground; it wasn’t a human head, but that of a Green Lion, although not an ordinary animal. It was a transford Great Demon.
Though the blood on the head had dried, it was still quite fresh, indicating that this Great Demon was killed not long ago. The residual Great Demon Power could be felt even from a distance.
"This is the Green Lion, under the Silver Tooth Demon King." At that mont, a female Evolver stood up furiously, her eyes fastened on the head, hatred apparent in her expression.
"When the Demon God Realm invaded Earth, I saw this Great Demon Green Lion swallow half a city whole with my own eyes."
"What? That horrible Great Demon that devoured half a city is this guy?" Others were also aware of this incident.
Because it was so cruel, every Evolver on Earth felt outraged.
But many Evolvers didn’t know which Great Demon was responsible, so this grudge could only be held against the Demon God Realm.
