Chapter 214 - Ten Persons

Chapter 214 – Ten Persons

The leader of the third team’s team, Liu Zhifei, was clearly a very talkative person. Witotal of ten people from the third team, it only took the time for half an incense’s worth of time for all the members to gather together, and everyone was already familiar with each other. Of course, as an inner disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, the other cultivators would naturally not refuse his respect.

Liu Zhifei was not tall, but he still looked quite spirited, and was able to communicate with everyone in the group. Other than the occasional sputtering of light from his gaze, he seemed rather easy-going, and did not have the arrogance a cultivator from a large sect would have. Furthermore, as the leader of the third team’s team, he was clearly at the fourth stage of martial arts realm, and was undoubtedly the number one expert in the third team.

Other than the team leader, there were still two other third stage baleful qi cultivators in the group of nine people, namely the female cultivator Xiong Xiyi from Xiong Family and the Ning family’s cultivator Ning Ran. Unlike Liu Zhifei, these two had the pride unique to large families, and after the other seven people arrived, they did not display Liu Zhifei’s enthusiasm.

The group of three had the highest status, and following them were the three second layer cultivators who had gathered the turbid Qi. Other than Yang Junshan, who was too young to attract attention, the other two were Luo Bingkun from Desolate Mountain Town and Wang Zong from Wangshan Town.

The last four people were the lowest cultivation group in the whole group. They were Qi Zhou of Wangqiu Town, Zhuang Guangyu of Sandtown, An Qingniang of Wasteland Town, and Fang Zhonghui, the female cultivator from Mengyu County.

“In that case, only Brother Liu, Big Sister Xiong, and Fellow Daoist Ning are the original border guards, and third team was also created based on the three of you?” Luo Bingkun obviously wanted to understand the situation of the team as soon as possible, and Liu Zhifei had the same plan. Within a single question and answer, the two of them had actually talked about the team the most.

Liu Zhifei nodded his head and laughed, “That’s right, there were originally only five people from the third team s who were protecting the border, but the other two fell at the hands of the Sirius Gate s during the conflicts between the borders. Although the group has doubled in size, their strength has not increased by one fold.”

“Our team, I think everyone has some background now. The Heaven-Shaken Sect, the Three Great Heroes, and a few small towns in Mengyu County, the ten of them are not related to each other. The other teams’ situation is more or less the same.”

Seeing that everyone was listening carefully to what he said, Liu Zhifei continued to speak: “What I want to say is, during this period of time, we may encounter frequent battles, we need to get to know each other as soon as possible, in order to be able to coordinate effectively when we meet enemies, group battles are different from individual battles. If we cannot establisacit understanding between each other, then the combined strength of the ten of us is not as good as being able to fight on our own.”

Luo Bingkun nodded first: “Brother Liu is right!”

Seeing that, Liu Zhifei said with satisfaction: “Alright, we have three days to get to know each other. Three days later, we will take turns with the fifth and seventh squads to patrol the one hundred li border.”

“A hundred miles?” Luo Bingkun asked in surprise, “They’re actually being held responsible by thirty Martial Realm Cultivator s from three small teams, isn’t this a little too …”

Liu Zhifei said: That’s right, Brother Luo is not a local person, so you may not know that the border that we are in charge of is a little special, within this short distance of a hundred li, not only is it the boundary between Wangshan Town and Sandtown, it is also separated from the border between Ling Zhang County and Huyao County, which means to say that the area of a hundred li is the border between Yuxian, Zhang County and Yao County.

Qi Zhou from the Wangqiu Town asked worriedly, “Doesn’t that mean our place is the most dangerous?”

Liu Zhifei shook his head and laughed, “On the contrary, after the conflict between the Mengyu County and the other two counties started, this place is actually a relatively peaceful area. Because everyone of the three forces know about the importance of this stretch of the border, all three of them are here stocked with heavy soldiers and they would not act rashly.”

Seeing everyone heave a sigh of relief, Liu Zhifei reminded them: “Of course, there are plenty of provocations and probing at the border, if not two members of third team wouldn’t have fallen, so I hope everyone wouldn’t take it lightly, when the time comes, if they catch me and kill a few of us, don’t blame me for not reminding everyone.”

After explaining most of the things, Liu Zhifei said again, “Sand Mountain Village is a supply point for the cultivators guarding the borders of the Mengyu County, this place has already spontaneously formed a marketplace, and afteeriod of time, the team will have a break, at that time, everyone will not only come here to receive the necessary supplies, they can also exchange some of items.”

After that, Liu Zhifei brought everyone to meet with the cultivators in the fifth and seventh groups. After familiarizing himself with each other for a while, he finally dispersed.

In the next three days, the people of third team were busy and familiar with each other, Liu Zhifei also explained the dangers of the border and the things that they should take note of to the people, he also talked about his familiar fighting methods to the people, and upon seeing that, everyone started to talk about their own fighting techniques, their general strength and the abilities they had mastered, making their understanding of each other even deeper.

The clematis was originally the inheritance of the Yang Family, so he did not need to hide anything from them. Furthermore, if there wauge war, the Mountain Monarch Seal s in his hands would naturally not be able to keep this a secret.

Of course, Yang Junshan would naturally not reveal his true identity, and believed that everyone present would also secretly leave behind a few methods to protect themselves.

But even so, when everyone heard that the youngest Yang Junshan in the group had cultivated a spirit art inheritance and even held a spirit artifact, they couldn’t help but be shocked.

One had to know that as an inner disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, Liu Zhifei only told the crowd that he had only mastered two spirit arts and supernatural powers, while as disciples of the three great heroes, Xiong Xiyi and Ning Ran had only mastered one spirit art as their legacy.

Of the remaining seven, other than Yang Junshan, the rest had never possessed any spirit arts or abilities. However, Zhuang Guangyu who came from the Sandtown was the nephew of Village Head Tian Zheng Wang from the Sandtown Sha Tian Village. He had actually learned a spirit art legacy from his uncle, but so far, he had not succeeded in his cultivation.

Speaking of tools, Liu Zhifei and Xiong Xiyi each had a middle tier magic tool, while the low tier magic tools that the three of them had were in their possession: Ning Ran, Yang Junshan and Luo Bingkun.

Forget about cultivation methods and cultivation levels, as for the remaining two, whether it was divine abilities or spirit tools, Yang Junshan was one of the four decisive factors. Amongst the ten people in the third team, the youngest Yang Junshan seemed to have managed to get himself into the fourth position in terms of strength.

Three days later, the third team’s first border patrol began. The ten people moved along the border from the east to west according to the formation Liu Zhifei had discussed with Xiong Xiyi and Ning Ran, and of the ten people, their strength was only second to Liu Zhifei’s. Xiong Xiyi was at the front, and Liu Zhifei was at the back, flying in the air from time to time, while the others spread out to a distance of about twenty to thirty meters.

This was because it was only the usual patrols, coupled with Liu Zhifei occasionally finding a topic to chat with the masses. This time, the patrols on third team seemed to have become a lot more relaxed, as everyone would occasionally discuss some interesting stories about the cultivation world.

Amongst everyone present, other than Liu Zhifei and the other two veteran border cultivators, the ones most close to the border in terms of news and rumors were probably the Wangshan Town’s Zong and Sandtown’s Zhuang Guangyu’s group.

However, the Wangshan Town that Wang Zong was in was obviously one of the three great tyrants, the Ning Family’s influence, just like how the Wangqiu Town that was born in Wangqiu Town was actually planted by the Xiong Family to assist and protect Xiong Xiyi, Wang Zong and the other two people were clearly very close to Ning Ran, but he was different from Luo Bingkun. Most of the time, he was juserson who didn’t like to talk.

Zhuang Guangyu did not look old either, appearing to be around twenty years old. More importantly, because Liu Zhifei was easy to talk to, the little guy mysteriously asked: “Brother Fei, I heard that in order to encourage border guards to kill the enemy, Heaven-Shaken Sect and the three great warriors have madich reward for their battle?”

Liu Zhifei looked at Zhuang Guangyu with some surprise, and said: “That is indeed the case.”

Hearing that, Zhuang Guangyu’s expression became even more excited, and asked: What’s the reward method, brother Fei, why don’t you reveal it?

When everyone heard the news, they had already turned their attention to him. Liu Zhifei saw that everyone was focused on him, then laughed: “Let’s talk about it first, I only heard about it, if everything goes wrong, don’t blame me.”

laughed and said, “Actually, Junior Sister Xiong and Junior Brother Ning should also know about this news.”

Xiong Xiyi scoffed coldly, her expression clearly showing that she was displeased, while Ning Ran merely laughed bitterly, similarly not saying a word.

Liu Zhifei did not seem to mind, and said instead: “Originally, border guards would also receive rewards, but this time, the rewards clearly increased a lot. It’s obviously because there were signs of a large number of Martial Realm Cultivator joining the border guards in Mengyu County, but I heard that the new rewards will mainly be people’s heads.”

“Head?” Everyone cried out in alarm.

Strictly speaking, the new reward plan was more like a supplement. The new rewards included pills, Jade Coins s, crystal coins, talismans, spells, and more, and even a magical equipment, cultivation technique, spirit technique inheritance, etc.

“What, there’s still magical equipment?” “Spirit arts inheritance?” This time, everyone was even more agitated.

Liu Zhifei said complacently: “That’s right, but all of these things have to be exchanged with the number of Martial Realm Cultivator s who killed the opponent.”
