Firepower Cover: First Salvo!

The Great Xuan had been bustling beyond compare lately.

A great victory in the Southern Wastes!

Although it had not been a military victory, its significance ran even deeper.

According to the authentic records of Sima Lie, the Great Scholar presiding over the Spring and Autumn Hall, the historical truth behind the Southern Wastes' tides had been laid bare before the people of Great Xuan.

After all, these were records of "what I personally witnessed," so their authenticity was beyond question!

Among them were no shortage of literary scholars who took the history recorded by Sima Lie as their foundation, rewriting it into one stirring little tale after another.

And the most dazzling figures among them, aside from the Half-Saints who had ascended to the heavens and been enshrined as Sages, were the pride of humanity—Chen Luo, the Marquis of Chen Wu!

Who could have imagined that Bai Mo, the capital by which the Demon Race had always swaggered about, the one reputed to have competed with the Marquis of Chen Wu in the Literary Dao, was the Marquis of Chen Wu himself!

This wave...

Hahahahahahaha!

The more desolate the Demon Race was, the more exhilarated humanity became.

When it came to culture, humanity had been far ahead ever since establishing its first dynasty. Did the Demon Race really think it could catch up just by trying a little?

Along with that, the Divine Ability known as Blood Body Transformation, which only Martial Dao Prodigies could cultivate, also attracted tremendous attention.

And so, a new saying began circulating through the streets—

The Daoist sect was ruthless, the Confucian sect filthy, and one Blood Body Transformation left you fleeced clean.

First, they tricked the Demon Race into taking the bait, then they fooled the human Sacred Race into showing its hand.
