“Shut up, both of you.”

Ao Jiuxiao and Wang Anye shouted in unison, pressing down the two troublemakers first.

Then the tea was served as usual, along with various fruits and snacks. Only then did Wang Anye give Wang Anxin a look, signaling that they could begin.

“Swipe!”

Wang Anxin, prepared in advance, hung up a large map on the rack.

The map was densely filled with various pieces of information and data.

Standing beside it, he pointed at the content on the map and spoke confidently, “Based on the information we have gathered, Southern Wilderness is about two and a half times the size of Longzuo County. As it is alternately drought-stricken and flood-prone, most species cannot survive. Only some amphibious and semi-aquatic plants can inhabit here, thus resources are generally scarce overall.”

“Everyone, first look at this map. This is the source of Peace River, the ancient Big Snow Mountain. It flows majestically through South Qin towards Da Qian, rushing towards the Eastern Sea. The upper reaches are mostly mountainous, but in the lower reaches, once there is excess water during the rainy season upstream, it will cause floods, attacking the plains and low-lying areas downstream.”

“The terrain of Southern Wilderness is low-lying, and it was precisely through repeated Peace River floods that the vast Wild Marsh region was formed.”

His rationale was clear, and with the detailed map, he quickly made the several dragons present understand the origins of Southern Wilderness.

“Look at this map. This is the dam at Great Wilderness Marsh and the water control gates that our Wang family started constructing more than eighty years ago,” said Wang Anxin. “Has anyone noticed that in recent decades, the water levels of Southern Wilderness have been getting shallower? Many highlands have gradually become dry land.”

“Damn, so it was you humans who did this!” Ao Juechen slammed the table, his face looking extremely displeased. “We were wondering why the water was diminishing. Even the waters in our ancestral Long Ze have become shallower by several feet, getting smaller and smaller.”

“Please calm yourself, Dust Immune Elder,” said Wang Anxin calmly. “Previously, both droughts and floods in the entire Southern Wilderness were determined by nature, but this was not favorable for the development of the region.”

“Whether it’s drought or flood, our Azure Dragon Clan survives, it has nothing to do with your Human race,” Ao Juechen said angrily, not wanting to listen to any excuses from the Human race.

He glared at Wang Anxin, then glared at Wang Anye and shouted angrily, “Now, you immediately dismantle the dam and the sluice, and get off our Azure Dragon territory. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being impolite!”

“What the elder said is correct, survival, but merely survival,” retorted Wang Anxin, who wasn’t scared by his threats and continued at his own pace, “Our Wang family has conducted some minor intelligence investigations. Currently, the Azure Dragon Clan possesses one Level Eleven Old Ancestor Dragon, two Level Ten dragons, and about a hundred True Dragons ranging from Level Seven to Level Nine. The number of dragons is scarce, barely enough to sustain the clan.”

Such detailed intelligence made the dragons present drastically change their expressions.

For thousands of years, the population of the Azure Dragon Clan had indeed been declining. But how could these humans know this so precisely?

“Southern Wilderness is vast, but the appetites of the Dragon Clan during growth are not small,” said Wang Anxin. “Moreover, the Dragon Clan is extremely vulnerable in Jiao state and Python state, and often gets preyed upon during hunting.”

“By the time they reach Jiao state, it’s somewhat better, but due to overall resource scarcity, most Jiaos pass their optimal growth period in ignorance, and eventually, they struggle to transform into dragons. It is said that out of a hundred Jiaos, perhaps not even one can become a dragon.”

Dust Immune’s face twitched twice. “Since ancient times, our Azure Dragon lineage has grown up this way. Only those dragons that have survived the harsh ordeal of survival of the fittest are true dragons.”

“No, that’s because you’re too poor,” Wang Anxin said, his expression calm but his words striking a nerve with the dragon clan, “It’s a classic case of birth exceeding the capacity to nurture, forcing reliance on infighting to survive, euphemistically called ‘harsh ordeals.'”

Dust Immune was so furious that steam seemed to rise from his head, and just as he was about to explode, Wang Anxin continued, “Dust Immune Great Elder, let me ask you one question. Do you want your Azure Dragon Clan’s population to exceed a thousand?”

“What? Over a thousand?”

Dust Immune was stunned.

He forgot about his anger momentarily, taking a while to react before furiously questioning, “Ridiculous boy, have you gone mad? A thousand Azure Dragons, how can our marsh sustain so many?”

“Dust Immune Elder, please look at this; this is a food chain diagram~”

Wang Anxin spoke while unveiling another diagram, pointing to its content and explaining, “This is sunlight, this is the Earth, and these are plants. Within our Wang family, plants are termed ‘producers’. They rely on sunlight, the Earth, and some other nutrients to produce pastures, grains, and legumes.”

“Moving up, there are cattle, sheep, and certain herbivorous fish that can digest various plants and plant seeds for growth.”

“Further up are carnivorous predators like the Wild Marsh Crocodiles.”

“And even further up, there are your Azure Dragon Clan. Due to geographical environment, your main food source is the Wild Marsh Crocodiles and some fish. And the abundance of food also determines the prosperity or decline of your Azure Dragon Clan.”

“From this food chain, we can see that we can cultivate large quantities of pasture and legumes through enclosure measures, thus breeding more cattle and sheep. At the same time, we can focus on raising Wild Marsh Crocodiles and releasing fish.”
