You call this the way of the sword?

Due to the restrictions of the rules, senior generals cannot directly command troops in the plains. Therefore, the practice of each tribe is to select young commanders and extend the service of lower-ranking soldiers.

The human military does the same, training young commanders and deploying them to command various units in the plains.

At the same time, the service of lower-ranking soldiers will be extended, and the focus will shift from leveling up to improving one's cultivation and gaining military merits.

In other words, it's about keeping a group of level 29 max-level soldiers for two to three years to meet wartime needs, maintain battlefield order, and preserve the balance between different races.

Of course, relying solely on low-ranking soldiers is not enough, a point that was particularly evident last year.

Last year's new human champions seemed to have a cheat code, slaughtering the demon alliance all the way. Even the military's intervention could not turn the tide, and in the end, they could only save the situation by force.

Since then, various races have begun to build crossing channels at all costs, and the Demon Alliance has even intensified its efforts to steal the latest news about the newly promoted humans.

Their purpose is obvious: to prevent another monster from emerging from the human race.

However, for every clever plan you have, there's a countermeasure; the human military's response was quite simple.

It's about remaining silent and then turning the tables on them.

The demon and ghost military never dreamed that the kill list they received was fake. The names of Qiao Lie, Song Yuanshan, and others could not be found on the list. Only Yang Qingfeng was put at the top of the list to confuse the public, since there was no way to hide it anymore.

The real information war is always a mix of truth and falsehood.

Yang Qingfeng's part is obviously true. As the top and most important figure, this alone is enough to temporarily intimidate the demons and ghosts. What the human military did not expect was that after Yang Qingfeng realized Liu Changge's purpose, he also took a series of tricks.

This kid actually teamed up with Qiao Lie and others, and transformed into the even more mysterious Fengtian.

It should be noted that Fengtian is not on the kill list, so once he exerts his power, he will surely catch the demons and ghosts off guard.

When he received the news, Lü Yanliang was completely stunned.

Last year's warmongers were already incredibly audacious, but at least they knew to apply in advance.

Good heavens, another Fengtian has emerged this year, and these brats are so audacious that they actually acted first and reported later, launching the attack and applying for permission at the same time.

Not to mention the demons and ghosts were going to have a hard time, the human military was also thrown into chaos for quite some time.

Just as Qiao Lie said, Yang Qingfeng is the top scorer in the country, Xiao Bingning is the daughter of the richest man, Qiao Wanyi is the daughter of a general, and Jiang Yuan is a princess of the cabinet.

Following this approach, Qiao Lie even referred to Lin Tong, who had no background, as a representative of the masses.

In short, everyone in Fengtian is either rich or noble; the military can decide what to do!

Finally, Lü Yanliang dismissed his attendants and directly contacted Qiao Lie, immediately berating him: "You bunch of brats are simply lawless... Tell Yang Qingfeng to keep the battlefield under control near Xiyuan; the military's crossing will take time."

After two minutes of cursing, Lü Yanliang finally gave in and prepared to send troops to provide support.

The fact that this outcome was achieved after acting first and informing later is actually quite good.

Qiao Lie laughed and said, "Judging from your voice, you must be Lord Yu, right? My examiner, it was I who requested the military's assistance, not Yang Qingfeng."

Lu Yanliang pondered for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

Qiao Lie casually remarked, "Yang Qingfeng likes to go to extremes."

…………

Outside Yuncheng, teams found Yang Qingfeng one after another and launched an attack without hesitation.

As expected, the battle ended almost as soon as it began.

Yang Qingfeng walked alone in the wilderness with his sword, his cloak fluttering in the wind, his ghostly face chilling and intimidating. The invisible intimidation came not only from the mystery and the unknown, but also from the corpses that lay behind him.

The demons and ghosts who arrived later were all stunned by this scene, because the corpses were in extremely gruesome condition, as if their bones and muscles had been crushed, and they were dead as mud from the inside out.

The demons and ghosts weren't stupid either; they came for the bounty and retreated to save their lives.

At the same time, wishful thinking and a sense of disbelief quietly took hold, and one rallying signal after another was sent into the sky.

Amidst the sharp, piercing howl of the wind, thousands upon thousands of demons surged forth.

Yang Qingfeng looked up and glanced around, and couldn't help but feel a little disappointed; there was too little.

He turned to look at Yuncheng, saw the city defense troops on the city wall, and spotted Bai Xiaoxing. He then sent her a telepathic message: "Go somewhere else, I'm going to attack the city."

On the city wall, the young commander was still pondering how to drive Bai Xiaoxing away and whether he really had to call Qing Shi back when Bai Xiaoxing suddenly turned around and left.

"Huh? Where are you going?"

"Run away."

Bai Xiaoxing spoke frankly, and the commander didn't react for a moment. However, Duan Kang, who was standing next to him, suddenly perked up his ears, and when he looked outside the city again, his heart started pounding wildly.

The city defense soldiers might not know, but he could understand Bai Xiaoxing very well.

To put it bluntly, why did Bai Xiaoxing issue a bounty?

Besides wanting revenge, the bigger reason was that she herself couldn't defeat Fengtian, which shows that she had truly witnessed Fengtian's power. Therefore, it was perfectly reasonable for Bai Xiaoxing to say that she wanted to run away at this time.

It's time to start!

Duan Kang had this thought in mind and instinctively wanted to escape, but his legs felt like lead, and his eyes were fixed on the ghostly face in the distance.

"What does she mean?"

The young commander let Bai Xiaoxing leave without causing any further trouble.

The adjutant kept a close eye on the situation outside the city and pondered, "They probably feel that it's not safe inside the city either."

The entire city wall fell silent for a moment.

Looking at the grand scene outside the city, no one laughed; instead, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense.

Finally, the situation began to change.

Like a stone thrown into still water, the situation caused a great stir. As more and more demons and ghosts gathered, those who knew the truth were gradually overwhelmed, and the crowd that came for the bounty began to stir.

"You are Fengtian?"

"It's all just for show, it doesn't look impressive at all."

"He even calls himself the Son of Heaven, laughable."

"What are we going to do? There are so many of us, and he's only one. How are we going to divide it up?"

"Grandpa Bai is mine!!"

Suddenly someone roared, and the skill transformed into a whistling arrow.

No sooner said than done, one demon made a move, and the others rushed to launch their own attack.

Suddenly, the dark world became bright.

Thousands of demons attacked simultaneously, instantly forming a terrifying barrage of attacks. Some melee-type demons were stopped on the spot, losing their eligibility to compete for the bounty.

Demons with ranged skills continuously unleash their abilities, all in an effort to increase their chances of securing kills.

No one cared why Fengtian could come here alone, no one cared about Fengtian's origins, until the skill landed, dust and smoke rose, and the roar lasted for a long time.

Gradually, demons and ghosts noticed the anomaly.

The bounty has not disappeared.

The bounty is still up!

At the very back, Silver Ninth Lord of the Falcon Clan stared intently at the bounty list, his heart trembling with each glance.

Logically, the bounty should disappear immediately once the target dies, but the bounty did not disappear!

"Hey, why isn't there a kill notification?"

"Damn it, which bastard got the reward?"

"My dear Grandpa Bai!!"

"Wait a minute, why is the bounty still on...?"

Amidst the sudden uproar, all the demons and ghosts wore expressions of surprise and doubt.

The skill barrage had ended by then, and Fengtian's figure had long been swallowed up by smoke and dust.

Under such a massive bombardment, let alone Fengtian, who only had one person, even the strongest human team would have absolutely no chance of survival.

However, no lucky one appeared.

The bounty is still up!

Suddenly, a cry of alarm came from the front: "There he is! He's not dead yet!!"
