Urban God of War: The Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 687 - 680: Infiltrating the Demon Horn Tribe Part 2
Zhuge Wuming and Zhao Gongming both nodded in agreement, and Zhuge Wuming quickly asked, "So with your return this time, what are your plans?"
Ye Feng said, "Time is of the essence, so I won't beat around the bush. I need you to immediately select a group of disciples with decent talent from the Utility Pavilion and various major families in the capital."
Zhuge Wuming laughed heartily after hearing this and said, "I won't hide it from you, I have already prepared for this." ƒrēenovelkiss.com
Ye Feng was taken aback and asked in return, "You've already made the selection?"
"Yes, since I am responsible for overseeing the rear, if I cannot even foresee such a matter, I don't deserve to sit in this position. In fact, whether or not the Great Wall of Heaven can hold, we should still select a group of strong individuals to face the upcoming situation!" Zhuge Wuming said.
Ye Feng nodded; he had to admit that Zhuge Wuming's experience and acumen were indeed shrewd. After serving many years in the Utility Pavilion, his manner of handling affairs naturally far exceeded ordinary people. This saved Ye Feng a lot of time.
"How many people have you selected in total?" Ye Feng asked.
"This selection was nationwide, including our Utility Pavilion and various major families in the capital, and we have selected a total of two hundred people."
Zhuge Wuming said this and then continued, "In addition, over at the Martial Academy, I had already instructed the Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong to start preparations. There might be more people from the Martial Academy since it has been cultivating for so long and has gathered many high-level folk experts. There are roughly three hundred people on that side!"
"Two hundred people from your side, three hundred from the Martial Academy, plus the Northern Border Army and the Valley of the Medicine God, as well as the elite survivors from the great war, all together, barely over a thousand. That should be about right," Ye Feng said with a slight nod.
Now, with only two Pulse Sources left in the Heavenly Origin Secret Realm, if Ye Feng contributed some Heavenly Talents and Earthly Treasures, he could get a team of about a thousand to successfully break through to the Golden Core Realm and completely stabilize their Cultivation Realm in two years.
"Where are those two hundred people now?" Ye Feng asked.
"I have already had them gather at the Martial Academy; they have already joined the academy's students. This way, it will be convenient for you to mobilize them without too much back and forth, saving time!" Zhuge Wuming said.
"You both have my thanks for the hard work. Next, check the Treasure Vault at the Utility Pavilion and tally all the resources in the vault. Once I have arranged things on my end, I will come back. We may need to implement national mandatory martial arts training since we don't have much time left," Ye Feng said as he stood up and clasped his hands in farewell.
"Alright, we will arrange that. National martial arts training must be facilitated through the Martial Academy, but now that the Martial Academy has spread throughout the country, it's not too much trouble to launch the initiative. However, the resources, relying solely on our Utility Pavilion, are far from sufficient," Grand Sect Leader Zhao Gongming sighed.
"I will find a way to handle the resource issue. When the time comes, I will make requests from the Nine Great Sects of Ancient Martial Arts. Additionally, the Four Great Ancient Clans must also contribute," Ye Feng said with a solemn face.
When it came to resources, the Four Great Ancient Clans were actually the best; although the Ancient Clan's disciples were not numerous, they occupied a massive amount of resources, which was why the cultivation levels of the Ancient Clan's scions were far above those of other Great Powers and Sects.
Zhuge Wuming and Zhao Gongming remained silent; after all, prying resources from the Four Great Ancient Clans was easier said than done!
Ye Feng said no more and clasped his hands before leaving the Utility Pavilion and then heading to the Martial Academy.
At the Martial Academy, Second Sect Leader Shi Yehong and other senior figures had already been informed. When Ye Feng arrived, over five hundred people had already assembled in the square.
Ye Feng, along with Hong Qingyan, landed on a high platform in the square, and the moment they did, the five hundred or so people knelt on one knee and shouted, "Greetings to the Headmaster!"
"Stand up," Ye Feng waved his hand and immediately turned to the Second Sect Leader, "I didn't expect you to act so quickly. It seems that entrusting the Martial Academy to you was the right choice."
Shi Yehong waved his hands and said, "Old and with not high enough Cultivation Realm—I would rather not stay in the rear if I had the choice. I'd prefer to join the front lines to fight the enemy!"
At this point, Hong Qingyan said, "Master, although you are older, your innate talent was good. I think it's not too late for you to abandon Martial Arts for Daoism even now. I have some Spirit Stones on hand."
As she spoke, Hong Qingyan was about to take out the Spirit Stones she had saved and hand them over, not forgetting Shi Yehong's kindness. After all, when she first arrived in the capital, she was an ordinary weak girl. It was the Second Sect Leader who did not despise her and took her as a disciple, leading her to the door of Martial Dao.
Shi Yehong continuously waved his hands and said, "Let's not worry about this for now, there are still too many things to deal with at the moment. Ye Feng said we will be promoting national martial arts and Daoist training; that's a big deal. I'll resolve this issue before anything else."
Understanding the other party's feelings, Ye Feng knew that with less than two years left, the Great Wall of Heaven would collapse, and the Demon Horn Tribe Army would surely swarm in. As the acting headmaster of the Martial Academy, Shi Yehong was shouldering a heavy burden.
"Abandoning Martial Arts for Daoism will take a lot of time. Although there's no hurry, you should take these Spirit Stones. Use them for cultivation when you rest; it will greatly help your transition from Martial Arts to Daoism later on!" Ye Feng said, still taking out a dozen or so Spirit Stones from his storage ring and stuffing them into Shi Yehong's hands.
Then, without waiting for Shi Yehong to refuse, Ye Feng turned his head to start the briefing. After all, these were newcomers who were unclear about many things; essential briefings and mobilization were unquestionably necessary. Of course, having been selected, although unaware of the specific situation at the Great Wall of Heaven, they had heard some things.
After the briefing and mobilization, Ye Feng did not hesitate and immediately led the five hundred plus people straight to the East Sea. Within half an hour, they entered the Outer Battlefield.
At this moment, the Northern Border Army had also assembled about four hundred people, with Xiao Chuanqi, Gai Jiuyou, Leng Wuming, and Sima Zhantian each leading a hundred troops, marching mightily towards the East Sea.
Additionally, over at the Valley of the Medicine God, after Yu Feiyu explained the situation to his father Yu Xianhe, Yu Xianhe promptly set to work. Quickly, including the disciples of the Flora Sect, a total of fifty people were led directly to the Outer Battlefield by Yu Xianhe himself.
From gathering the forces to mobilization and then entering the Outer Battlefield, it took less than half a day. Only at this point did the powers in the Outer Battlefield slowly become aware of something abnormal, sensing that something was amiss.
