Chapter 2053: One Hundred Thousand Merits

how could you be a waste"You are not a waste, but you have such great talent that you surpassed the test of the Divination Mirror.As long as you start cultivating, it won't be long before you trample...Fan Xiaofeng died, but no one else cared. Everyone was consumed by despair at that moment.

Faced with the formidable barbarian army before them, they were unable to fight or escape. All that remained was for everyone to struggle on in desperation.

The Tianfeng Empire royal family started in the same way. Song Yaoji led a hundred elite royal guards, sweeping all opposition and directly stormed into the barbarian camp.

Needless to say, what followed for them was the same as what happened to the Cangfeng Academy: they were attacked by a large force of barbarians.

They were simply no match for the cultivators of Cangfeng Academy. Their cultivation levels were far inferior, and they offered little resistance before being slaughtered without mercy.

Fortunately, to be on the safe side, Song Jian sent Zhao Lian to stay by Song Yaoji's side.

At a critical juncture, he fearlessly charged into the fray. With his formidable cultivation from the later stages of body fusion, he managed to escape with the county princess.

Two people escaped from the barbarian camp. Although Zhao Lian was powerful, he was still injured in many places under the dense spear barrage, looking bloody.

Song Yaoji's face was as pale as paper. As a pampered princess, she was completely terrified at this moment and had lost all her former arrogance and pride.

Song Jian led the 300,000 army of the Tianfeng Empire. This was the main force in this battle.

After the ambush began, he led his men straight into the barbarian camp, sweeping all before him.

The good times didn't last long, and soon they were surrounded by barbarians. It was clear that this was all premeditated.

The single-combat strength of barbarians is generally stronger than that of soldiers in the Tianfeng Empire. It's only through formations and equipment that both sides can fight on equal terms.

Now Song Jian had fallen into the enemy's trap, from an attacker becoming the prey being hunted. The entire battlefield fell into a disadvantageous position.

"Withdraw immediately!"

Realizing the situation was dire, Song Jian immediately ordered his troops to retreat, but it was too late.

Since the barbarians had set a trap, how could they possibly let them retreat so easily Wave after wave of attacks came, sending large numbers of soldiers to their deaths in a sea of blood.

Although protected by his guards, Song Jian emerged unscathed but his face was grim with fury.

I originally thought this raid I organized would be a surprise, achieving huge results and even getting Ye Bufan caught in the crossfire.

I never expected things to go so wrong, ending up in this situation.

Just when everyone was feeling utterly desperate, suddenly fire engulfed the rear of the barbarian encampment. Huge columns of flames shot up into the sky, reddening half the heavens.

Then the entire barbarian camp was thrown into chaos. As the saying goes, "The most cruel tactic is to cut off their supplies." No matter how brave an army might be, once deprived of their rations, they were destined for defeat.

These barbarian soldiers knew exactly what the fire behind them meant, and the high-ranking barbarian generals also understood immediately. They quickly ordered their men to return to rescue those in danger.

In this way, the meticulously laid traps of the barbarians were completely ruined.

Those first-level barbarian soldiers who were originally surrounding Cangfeng Academy immediately retreated, rushing in the direction of the granary.

The overwhelming spears were finally gone, and people like Feng Tianxiang felt like they wanted to cry. They immediately seized the opportunity and fled in panic.

Deng escaped all the way outside the camp. Feng Xingkong turned his head back and took a look, his expression immediately turning extremely grim.

The five hundred elite soldiers brought before, there are now less than fifty remaining. The rest perished in the previous battle.

His heart sank to the bottom, this battle had nearly crippled half of Cangfeng Academy.

This leaves him in a precarious position. The headquarters of Cangfeng Academy would surely be furious upon learning this.

On the other side, Song Jian also felt the pressure ease. At this moment, the barbarian army's morale was scattered, and they had lost their previous ferocity.

On the contrary, seeing their own food and supplies burned, they immediately swept away their previous despondency, becoming incredibly excited and bravely fighting the enemy.

"Your Highness, let us counterattack immediately!"

The deputy commander Gao Desheng beside him was beaming with excitement. He had been utterly despairing before, thinking that even if they didn't suffer a complete rout today, they would be severely weakened.

Unexpectedly, a miraculous turnaround occurred. We were caught off guard by this unexpected development. It remains unknown who set fire to the enemy's provisions and raided their rear camp.

Song Jian was completely shocked. He naturally knew who had been arranged at the rear camp, but how could this be possible

You have to know that the grain store has always been heavily guarded by barbarians, with Black Leopard Riders there. Who could possibly succeed in a surprise attack

Our side's heavy forces marched into a trap, and now the Lingxiao Academy only has eight people. How could they possibly defeat the Black Panther Cavalry or burn their supplies

He can find a thousand reasons to say no, but the facts are right in front of him.

The barbarians weren't faking it. Their grain and forage were really burned, and their army was truly in disarray.

"Your Royal Highness, you must decide quickly! Time is of the essence!"

Gao De Sheng's face was filled with urgency. As a veteran who had seen many battles, he naturally understood how precious the current opportunity was. Once lost, it would probably never come again.

"Well said, now it's your turn. Lead the army out immediately!" Song Jian came to his senses and immediately gave the order.

Then, with the morale of the Tianfeng Empire's soldiers soaring, they immediately turned the tide of battle. In no time at all, they completely routed the barbarian camp.

The once ferocious barbarians were now retreating step by step, ultimately issuing an order to withdraw their troops. They fled in a disgraceful rout.

Gao De Sheng naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity, leading his army in hot pursuit.

Not long after, the bustling Tianlang City had returned to its former tranquility. The only remnants of the chaos were the countless corpses and the sickening stench of blood.

Ye Bufan's side was proceeding incredibly smoothly, though they did later encounter a Level 1 Barbarian soldier from the Barbarians.

But for them, the spear as an attack method was simply too antiquated. It offered no chance for the enemy to throw anything back. They were resolved from a distance before any opportunity arose.

These first-rate barbarian soldiers could have dealt with the exhausted Cangfeng Academy, but they couldn't make a ripple against them.

Later, even the defeated barbarian soldiers would fear them like serpents and avoid crossing paths with them.

Soon, a few people hurried past the camp and returned to Song Jian's presence.

Song Yaoji and Feng Xingkong, along with others, had already gathered here. They were all wounded, each bearing the marks of battle, a sight that was truly pitiful.

On the other hand, the eight people from Lingxiao Academy strolled leisurely, with serene expressions, as if they had just returned from a spring outing. The contrast was simply too great.

If it hadn't been for the barbarians' rations being burned, everyone present would have truly believed that Ye Bufan and his group had simply hidden themselves and didn't participate in the battle at all.

Even so, Song Jian still asked in disbelief: "Did you burn the barbarian's food and grass"

“Yeah, we did it!”

Ye Bufan said with a cheerful smile, “Thanks to Your Highness for assigning us this task. It’s really too easy, it’s both relaxing and enjoyable to do, and it's easy to earn merit points.”

Seemingly afraid the other party wouldn't believe him, he directly held up the medal of achievement in his hand. The long string of numbers on it made one's eyes dizzy.

“This...”

Everyone stared in disbelief at the medal of honor in his hand, confirming it again and again, only to discover that it had a staggering one hundred thousand merits.

"It's impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Feng Tianxiang suddenly cried out in dismay. Their Cangfeng Academy suffered heavy casualties and was severely depleted of their strength. In the end, they only managed to accumulate a few thousand military merits.

But the other party was unscathed, earning 100,000 points of merit in one go. How could he believe it

"Cheating, you must be cheating! This is impossible!"untless people, the Lingyun Sword Sect only existed because of Leng Qingqiu. Others weren't worth paying attention to at all.This is also the effect of Ye Bufan pretending to be a pig and eating a tig...
