Chapter 190: Chapter 178: Leader of the Divine General’s Meeting, Taoist Zhi Xin’s Invitation

The first successful defense of the platform grants two hours of rest.

Song Lin’s strength has now been revealed, inspiring others with the determination to win.

Generally, the second round is the most challenging.

After the initial probing, the other participants gain a rough understanding of their opponent’s capabilities and come up with countermeasures.

At this moment, five more challengers step forward to challenge Song Lin.

Not far from the grand hall, Zhao Wuji, his head covered in blood, is half-reclining in a chair. After a while, he slowly regains consciousness.

His gaze initially carries confusion, but memories before his fainting gradually flood back into his mind.

Realizing that he was eliminated by Song Lin and even knocked unconscious, Zhao Wuji’s face turns red with rage, and a fire of indignation surges in his chest while veins bulge on his forehead.

Shame! Humiliation!

To be eliminated by a junior from the jungle, especially in the Taoist Skill he was most skilled at.

If word of this spreads, he may never lift his head in dignity again.

At this moment, Zhao Wuji just wants to kill Song Lin.

However, such thoughts remain just that—mere thoughts.

He may hold sway in the Mei Mountain Jungle.

But here in Yunzhou City, especially in the Xuantian Jade City belonging to the Holy Might Taoist School, even with a hundredfold courage, Zhao Wuji dares not act recklessly.

As a defeated participant, Zhao Wuji can only resentfully stare at the retreating figure of Song Lin, who is basked in the admiration of the crowd, while still pondering how to report back to the Taoist.

Before coming here, the Taoist expressly warned him not to let Song Lin gain momentum. Initially, Zhao Wuji dismissed this advice as unimportant, but now that he’s been eliminated, regret consumes him, and he dreads how he’ll explain himself upon returning. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com

Meanwhile, new challengers step up against Song Lin.

This time, it’s two Purple Mansion Taoists.

"What a chance!" Zhao Wuji exclaims excitedly.

Though he himself couldn’t defeat Song Lin, if others succeed in doing so, he might still claim some credit.

"They can do it!"

One Purple Mansion Taoist has refined Flying Tiger Soldiers.

Three thousand Flying Tiger Soldiers possess cultivation at the Qi Refinement stage.

The Flying Tiger Centurion is at Divine Establishment, while the lowest-ranking Chiliarch is at Core Formation.

The Flying Tiger Soldiers are a variant of winged tiger demons, cultivated by implanting their blood into human practitioners.

The Refining Furnace can simulate all imaginable cultivation materials, albeit refining them takes slightly longer.

However, this type of Taoist Soldier is innately superior to Rampant Soldiers, rendering numerical disparities irrelevant.

Moreover, the other Purple Mansion Taoist commands Netherworld Ghost Soldiers, renowned for their overwhelming numbers.

One Purple Mansion Taoist named Lu Mingyang couldn’t defeat Song Lin before, but with two working together, surely they’ll succeed?

As the thoughts cross his mind, the battle begins.

This time, the clash draws the attention of nearly everyone present.

Rampant Soldiers are cultivated within various Refining Soldiers methods but are generally considered non-mainstream.

After all, Rampant Soldiers lack the strength of proper Taoist Soldiers.

Yet now, an individual has emerged, claiming to have consolidated the Rampant Soldier Method, allowing practitioners to elevate their cultivation further.

With such compelling claims, it’s no wonder everyone’s eyes are glued to the contest.

"I’m betting on Song Lin!"

"I wouldn’t be so sure. His Taoist Realm isn’t strong. Last time, Lu Mingyang underestimated him and lost by chance."

"I would disagree. He’s known as the Rampant Soldier Ancestor, deeply versed in this method. If his Taoist Realm falls short, he can always make up for it with strategy."

"Let’s watch closely!"

On the elevated platform, Song Lin reviews his tactics.

Focusing solely on soldier production won’t suffice.

Some soldier types remain unaffected by numerical superiority. Currently, his advantage lies in the Yang Thunder Captain.

The Yang Thunder Captain can mobilize the entire array and everyone’s strength to unleash the Thunderclap attack.

Few are capable of withstanding this strike.

Yet while ramping up soldier production, concurrently refining the Yang Thunder Captain must remain a priority.

However, another problem arises. Without numerical superiority among Rampant Soldiers, they cannot match proper Taoist Soldiers.

Song Lin looks toward the newly risen small platform, a thought surfacing in his mind.

"I’ve got it!"

"Rise!"

Song Lin deploys one thousand Rampant Soldiers, aiming to seize the small platform.

Meanwhile, he begins refining the Yang Thunder Captain.

Observing the Pill Furnace, he watches as various materials—thunder stone, Thunder God Vine, thunderstruck wood undergoing nine strikes—appear within.

"What a pity that Mystical Character magic refining methods from the story world cannot be carried over."

The Mystical Character’s talismanic method for refining Yang Thunder Captains and Five Thunders Soldiers merely requires drawing sigils, bypassing the need for materials entirely.

Yet the real world lacks those characters in the Jade Scripture, making it impossible to use such techniques.

Meanwhile, others dispatch their forces to probe Song Lin’s defenses.

In the first round, Song Lin seizes two flags but is subsequently overwhelmed by collective onslaught.

In the second round, he dispatches one thousand soldiers along with a Yang Thunder Captain.

Boom!

A low-level Thunderclap reduces enemies to ash, allowing him to capture six small flags.

"Impressive! This youngster truly understands strategy. Despite his youth, his grasp of the Rampant Soldier Method is unparalleled," Grandmaster Xuanqi remarks with keen insight, recognizing Song Lin’s approach at a glance.

The essence of Rampant Soldiers lies in their sheer numbers and swift production!

With the defender possessing three Refining Furnaces, this advantage grows even more prominent.

High-level combat power is supplemented by explosive Thundering Spells.

Song Lin’s strategy involves rapidly deploying soldiers, allocating some to secure various strongholds for stalling while intermittently detonating them to deplete enemy forces.

With successive waves of attacks, Song Lin secures more strongholds, bolsters his Rampant Soldier numbers, and gradually shifts the advantage.

Boom!

At this moment, twelve high platforms merge, and the Heavenly Dragon Flag emerges.

"Kill!"

Ten Yang Thunder Captains lead ten thousand Rampant Soldiers in a charge toward the Heavenly Dragon Flag.

On the opposing side, humanoid Flying Tiger Soldiers with tiger’s wings and fanged Netherworld Ghost Soldiers launch their own assault.

Boom!!

Another Thunderclap erupts!

Within several miles, lightning serpents rampage, obliterating the combat power on both sides into smoke and ash.

Only one thousand Rampant Soldiers remain to seize the Heavenly Dragon Flag, unleashing a hundred-foot Fire Dragon to demolish five Refining Furnaces below.

"Eliminated!"

Master Xuanqi’s voice echoes across the battlefield.

"It’s over!" Song Lin smiles.

This is his strategy—the Explosive Soldiers and Swift Dragon approach!
