The Military Exercise Parade Ground was packed with nobles.
The Phoenix Spirit Guard's smaller Military Exercises could generally be decided within a single day, but the duration of a large-scale Military Exercise was uncertain.
Some ended in a decisive battle within half a day, while others lasted one or two days, even two or three.
In the history of the Phoenix Spirit Guard's Military Exercises, there had even been a large-scale exercise that lasted ten days.
Accordingly, no one was in a hurry.
But at this very moment, cries of grief filled the area surrounding the Military Exercise Parade Ground.
There were even despairing wails and roars.
"Damn Fifth Guard, is this how you screw people over?"
"Where's Chen Denglong? Get the hell out here! A generation's God of War, my ass—I've been cleaned out of my entire life's savings because of you!"
Many Phoenix Spirit Race members who had lost disastrously pointed at the Fifth Guard Phoenix Spirit Guards who had been eliminated early and cursed them viciously.
The Fifth Guard Phoenix Spirit Guards had already been dejected after losing the battle. Now that everyone was surrounding them and berating them, they grew even more dispirited, lowering their heads so far they were nearly buried in their crotches.
Yet among them, a small number of Phoenix Spirit Guards wore not only dejection, but utter terror.
These Phoenix Spirit Guards were the ones who had personally witnessed Ye Zhen behead the former guard general, Chen Jiawei.
They were terrified beyond measure, each keeping their head down in silence. As a result, news of Chen Jiawei's death had yet to spread.
Although the final outcome of the large-scale Military Exercise had not yet been announced, the result was essentially set in stone.
The Fifth Guard had already lost.
The Seventh Guard
