Awaken the Great Wall?
The term left everyone looking bewildered.
Wasn't the Great Wall merely a defensive fortification repaired throughout the ages?
Did it have some other purpose?
Bai Qi spoke. "All of you have long experience on the battlefield. You should know that reinforcement arrays are inscribed atop every pass of our Huaxia Great Wall."
Everyone nodded obediently. This was also the key to the various passes' ability to repel enemies. The arrays laid throughout the Great Wall's passes had not been added by later generations—they had been inscribed long ago!
These arrays served only one purpose: to turn passes that seemed easy to breach into impregnable strongholds.
If the wolf race's southern advance had not gone completely mad this time, Yanmen Pass would not have been breached so easily. Take Jiayu Pass, the bridgehead of Great Wall Base City—it had not fallen because the pass was broken through. It was occupied only after the defending soldiers had been killed.
"Actually, you misunderstand. The arrays inscribed at the various passes only serve reinforcement as a minor function. Their true purpose is sealing!"

Everyone was completely confused.
"Why seal the Great Wall? Would something terrible happen if it weren't sealed?"
Bai Qi revealed a strange smile. "Without the seals, the Great Wall would grow without limit until it became a monster rather than a wall capable of defending against foreign enemies!"

He himself was an Earth-Type Demi-Saint, so he knew much
