The Eastern Wasteland was the Wang Family's ancestral land. It held great significance for the Wang Family, utterly unlike the Northern Frontier. The enemy had reached their very doorstep, and the Wang Family finally began fighting in earnest.
There were simply too many demon beasts. Even with the Wang Family's reinforcements, the demon beasts vastly outnumbered the human cultivators.
Wang Youwei, Ouyang Mingyue, Wang Yingjie, Wang Rongting, Wang Rongfei, Wang Rongxiang, Wang Changjie, Wang Yinghao, and Wang Jiyun had all joined the battle. They were the Wang Family's elite. Wang Qingshan intended to use this opportunity to temper them. Only after the great waves had washed away the sand would the true gold remain; only those who survived were elites.
The Wang Family had a system of Two Heroes, Three Beauties, Four Elites, Five Sons, and Six Braves. Wang Qiuming and Wang Mengbin had successively entered the Nascent Soul Realm, leaving the Two Heroes positions vacant, while two spots among the Four Elites had also opened up. The Three Beauties were Wang Rongting, Wang Rongfei, and Wang Rongxiang, and that had never changed.
Wang Qingshan promised that whoever performed exceptionally in this great battle could be selected as one of the Two Heroes or Four Elites. Wang Youwei was one of the Four Elites; if he performed well enough, he could be chosen as one of the Two Heroes. The Wang Family's priority for Nascent Soul Formation was Two Heroes, Three Beauties, then Four Elites. Being selected as one of the Two Heroes meant receiving priority in forming a Nascent Soul.
A nation had its laws, and a family had its rules.
Wang Youwei wanted to be selected as one of the Two Heroes, but why wouldn't Wang Yingjie want the same?
A piercing chorus of bird cries rang out
