Chapter 2011: Chapter 2011 Chpater 2011 Real Life Training
Ye Tiandao’s Blade Legion reported the combat situation to Yu Xiaofeng and others, which gained their attention. They promptly began to select soldiers with high realms within the army to form an elite troop.
Among the 300,000-strong army, they have selected the strongest 50,000 soldiers, led personally by Yu Xiaofeng and with Helian Xiu as the deputy. They engaged in small-scale battles with the surrounding cities, honing the new team.
The remaining 250,000 of the army was led by Xiao Yunfang. While defending the City of Death, they continued to train and improve, providing reserve troops for this elite legion.
Pei Yong, the leader who specializes in pacifying surrendered soldiers, also hurried over with his trusted aides to join up with Yu Xiaofeng, ready for the battle.
During this period, Ye Liuyun would have Ye Tiandao lead an attack on a city each time they pass by one to test results, the humans, beasts, and ferocious beasts by his side also joined the battle to improve their strength and acquire resources.
During this period, Ye Liuyun would have Ye Tiandao lead an attack on a city each time they pass by one to test results, the humans, beasts, and ferocious beasts by his side also joined the battle to improve their strength and acquire resources. The prisoners caught from the city lord’s mansion, including the three martial artists of the seven-layer realm, were all handed over to Ye Tiandao by Ye Liuyun after their wounds recovered.
So in the past half-month, Ye Liuyun’s group has only attacked two cities, and they didn’t advance very fast. Less than a thousand prisoner soldiers were left.
Only then did Ye Liuyun release the original Blade Squad, allowing everyone to participate in the training and selection.
Wang Tianqing had once taken the opportunity to inquire about his own children’s whereabouts. Yet, Ye Liuyun didn’t have the heart to tell him, thinking it’s better for him not to know.

Either way, with the Slaving Seal planted on him, Wang Tianqing could not resist.
Along the way, both Ye Liuyun and his clones had been taking turns cultivating during this period and Feng Hongxiu did not notice anything.
However, Ye Liuyun discovered that his current virtuoso was like a bottomless pit that could never be filled up, no matter how. In order for him to raise his realm, the amount of advance energy needed was simply too much.
His Double Virtuoso also greatly affected the speed of his realm advancement.
Ye Tiandao’s realm has already advanced to the initial stage of the sixth tier, while Ye Liuyun, Lei Ming, Manshu and a few others who had cultivated the Double Virtuoso were still stuck in the late stage of the fifth tier. There was still a distance from breaking through.
Wu Qingcheng and the others, due to their previously low tier realm had a quick advancement. Majority of them had already advancing to the late stages of the fourth tier.
Ye Liuyun and his clones, began using Wang Tianqing for practice and started cultivating Elemental Spirit Secret Skill whenever they were outside the Xuankong stone in order to speed up their cultivation.
Having not cultivated or using the Elemental Spirit Secret Skill for a while, this aspect of his strength had hit a stagnation. At the beginning of mastering the Elemental Spirit Secret Skill, he could not even control one-tenth of Wang Tianqing’s genuine energy.
After consistent practice, his Elemental Spirit Secret Skill could only control two-tenths of Wang Tianqing’s genuine energy.
Moreover, Wang Tianqing was only a sixth tier martial practicioner. His strength was still far behind compared to those strong practitioners at the seventh or eighth tier.
"I need to strengthen this Elemental Spirit Secret Skill, or else it might become useless against those strong practitioners at the seventh or eighth tier!" Ye Liuyun thought to himself.
Half a month had passed since then, guessing that the National Preceptor’s group should soon catch up with them.
Ye Liuyun had no plans to continue attacking cities, instead, he wanted Ye Tiandao to train the new soldiers well. In order to prepare for the National Preceptor’s arrival.
Although they avoided the city and did not initiate the attack, the city’s soldiers were the ones who initiated the attack this time.
"I think the National Preceptor doesn’t want you to sit idle. He might also be afraid that you will escape too fast!" Feng Hongxiu analyzed.
Ye Liuyun nodded and also analyzed, "There could be more to it. He can also use this to pinpoint my location. I don’t think he will completely trust Wang Tianqing!"
Yet Ye Tiandao said, "This is even better. The soldiers can receive real combat training without the losses of sieging a city, which perfectly meets my training requirements."
"Good, then you are fully in command! Wang Tianqing is useless now, just use him as cannon fodder!"
Ye Liuyun agreed and let Ye Tiandao arranged for the defense. He simply released the Vermilion Bird, waiting for Yin-soul to enhance the Divine Power of the Vermilion Bird.
As for the others, Ye Liuyun asked them to focus on cultivation to prepare for the upcoming major battle.
They have endured three successive attacks, yet the number of soldiers lost didn’t reach three hundred.
They have encountered three successive attacks, yet the number of soldiers who died did not reach three hundred.
On the onter hand, Wang Tianqing had died on the battlefield.
Feng Hongxiu, even after seeing Ye Tiandao’s track record, was moved by his command and this regiment. "With soldiers of this caliber under your leadership, within any city, you could establish a dominant clan!" she commented.
"Uh-huh." Ye Liuyun responded in agreement, seemingly nonchalant towards her observation.
"Uh-huh." Ye Liuyun responded in agreement, seemingly nonchalant towards her observation. "It seems your ambitions are quite grand! A grand clan is something you seem to dismiss. Perhaps in the future, we will have an opportunity to cooperate with your Hongluan Building!"
Feng Hongxiu studied his reactions keenly, noticing that Ye Liuyun’s goal was more than becoming a grand force.
"Ha-ha, you sure know how to do business!" Ye Liuyun laughed, "I also hope to continue our cooperation! Just afraid I can’t afford the hefty price!"
But Feng Hongxiu laughed, "Commander Ye, please don’t be modest! It’s not even been a month from bloody cloud city, and I see you’ve reaped quite a bit of benefits! Like a bandit, you have plundered several city masters. My eyes are tinged green with envy!"
But Feng Hongxiu laughed, "Commander Ye, please don’t be modest! It’s not even been a month from bloody cloud city, and I see you’ve reaped quite a bit of benefits! Like a bandit, you have plundered several city masters. My eyes are tinged green with envy!" "That’s all for the soldiers’ sake. The resources and equipment required for thousands of people to practice, on average, it’s not that much!" Ye Liuyun quickly explained.
Feng Hongxiu giggled, "I’m not asking for your money, what are you panicking for?"
Ye Liuyun also laughed and played the poor card with Feng Hongxiu, "I’m just afraid you think I’m rich and will slaughter me during our future cooperation! You are not aware, I still have hundreds of thousands of troops to support. You do the math, even if the average soldier is in the triple realm, how much resources are consumed daily!"
Indeed, after Feng Hongxiu contemplated for a moment, the training resources alone are a massive expense daily for so many people, let alone weapons and equipment.
"No wonder wherever you go, you never forget to gather resources, indeed, with hundreds of thousands of people, the consumption is immense! But do you truly have such a large army?"
Feng Hongxue was still unaware that Ye Liuyun’s reinforcements had already arrived in the City of Death.
"Just within this border battlefield, nearly four hundred thousand soldiers have gathered! The Legion of Death consists of three hundred thousand, along with mercenaries, half-orcs, and defectors from the Eastern Dynasty, they amount to about one hundred thousand!" Ye Liuyun explained.
"Four hundred thousand?" Feng Hongxue almost exclaimed. She originally thought that when Ye Liuyun mentioned several hundred thousand, he was merely exaggerating. The most would have been just over a hundred thousand. She hadn’t expected Ye Liuyun to actually have a force of four hundred thousand.
Ye Liuyun nodded. Looking at him, Feng Hongxue didn’t think he was lying.
"It seems I’ve underestimated you! With these four hundred thousand troops, couldn’t you just proclaim yourself as a king?" Feng Hongxue sighed.
Ye Liuyun just laughed and countered, "What about supplanting the Eastern Dynasty?"
Feng Hongxue was first taken aback, then she immediately realized that Ye Liuyun may not be joking. He genuinely intended to strike against the Eastern Dynasty.
