With the ninth High-level Beast General collapsing to the ground, Lin Ye had neutralized this wave of Beast General attacks.

In other words, he had single-handedly wiped out an entire group of Beast Generals.

Standing in a pool of blood, Lin Ye confirmed that no Giant Lizards remained alive, and he finally relaxed.

Swish, swish, swish!!

Flying Daggers rained down from the sky, their blades sharp and utterly free of bloodstains, returning one by one to various spots on Lin Ye's Combat Suit.

Then, with a flicker of movement, he left that bloody slaughter site.

The sky gradually brightened.

In the early morning, the rising sun emerged in the east.

The thin mist shrouding the wilderness slowly dissipated, revealing its true face.

Standing at the edge of the battlefield, Lin Ye stretched toward the gray sky, savoring the cool morning breeze that brushed against him, his mood greatly lifted.

The recent slaughter had let Lin Ye taste the thrill of wielding immense power—the power of life and death.

For that moment, it felt as if he were the master of the entire battlefield, where those who obeyed lived and those who defied died.

And in that instant, the craving and pursuit of even greater strength took deep root in Lin Ye's heart.

Desire spread like spring wind through wild grass, unstoppable!

Filled with anticipation and longing, he opened his information panel.

[Name: Lin Ye (High-tier War General)]

[Attribute Points: 1000]

[Body Technique: Perfect Level (Proficiency 5/100)]

[Strength: 49065 kg]

[Speed: 301 m/s]

[Spirit: Psychic Power (Intermediate War God Level)]

[Domain: Not Activated (Grayed Out)]

[Clone: Not Activated (Grayed Out)]

"A full thousand Attribute Points—this is amazing!"

Seeing the Attribute Points gained from killing the One-eyed Giant Lizard, Lin Ye felt a secret joy.

His consciousness immediately swept across the information panel.

But just as Lin Ye, full of delight, tried to upgrade [Psychic Power], he was prompted that his Attribute Points were insufficient.

Lin Ye scrolled down, attempting to activate [Domain].

Yet again, he met with failure!

"In that case, I'll convert all the Attribute Points into Strength and Speed!"

Lin Ye made up his mind and began the upgrade.

"Let's start!"

With a thought, his consciousness swept over the Attribute Points.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!

A sound like flowing water echoed in Lin Ye's mind as the Attribute Points rapidly decreased.

At the same time, a vast, cool current surged from the void, pouring into every part of his body.

In that moment, Lin Ye felt himself undergoing refinement and transformation from the inside out, from cells to flesh.

His entire being was filled with a warm, comfortable sensation.

In this pleasant feeling, Lin Ye clearly sensed his flesh becoming denser, his bones tougher... and even his heart, under the current's tempering, grew stronger and more powerful.

Each beat, like a drum, sent more blood rushing to every part of his body.

"This feeling... is simply incredible..." Lin Ye closed his eyes in comfort, savoring the sensation...

At various positions along the defensive line, everyone looked at the young figure standing still at the forefront, their faces a mix of shock and joy.

The reason was simple.

The group of Beast Generals that Lin Ye had annihilated in the blink of an eye had brought them immense shock.

At the same time, the way they looked at Lin Ye had changed, as if they were gazing at a humanoid tyrannosaur.

After all, someone who could effortlessly kill Beast Generals of the same level... even across the entire War General Ranking, such a terrifying existence would rank among the top.

Not to mention, he had slain High-level Beast Generals that were only a step away from the Lord level.

And this Lin Ye... had so easily and casually wiped out a beast group containing nine High-level Beast Generals!

The terror of his strength left everyone utterly stunned.

Where the hell did this guy come from?

Lu Chen rolled up the empty right sleeve of his uniform, his gaze toward Lin Ye growing increasingly curious.

Until now, he had never heard of anyone like this from Shan City.

Yet here he was, appearing out of nowhere...

At that moment, Lu Chen looked at the Lingxiao Squad with a hint of envy in his eyes.

As if sensing Lu Chen's stare, Qi Ling turned his head and met the former's gaze.

Locking eyes, a smug smirk curled at the corner of Qi Ling's mouth.

Lu Chen: "..."

He looked away, his gaze toward Lin Ye now tinged with gratitude.

If not for his sudden emergence, this wave of Beast Generals alone would have cost his Dragon Breath Squad more casualties.

This debt of gratitude, Lu Chen would remember.

"Let's go, we'll rest and recover our strength."

Lu Chen's voice was firm and resolute, showing no sorrow over his lost arm.

He found a dry spot to sit down, quietly watching Lin Ye.

The rest of his squad followed suit...

In less than a minute, Lin Ye had swept through the entire group of Beast Generals, with the flair of one who slays a general while the wine is still warm.

This terrifying feat not only shocked the Dragon Breath Squad but also opened the eyes of the Owl Wolf Regiment soldiers on the battlefield.

"Beast Generals... can be killed like this?" All the soldiers stared in disbelief.

In past defensive battles, a single High-level Beast Soldier could chase down many of their fighters.

Yet now, this young martial artist had single-handedly annihilated an entire group of Beast Generals.

And from start to finish, surrounded by dozens of Beast Generals, he hadn't taken a single hit.

This was truly a massive morale boost!

Especially after the Dragon Breath Squad had suffered heavy losses, a sense of sorrow had lingered in many soldiers' hearts.

"Good, good, good... This damn position of mine is a fine place indeed!"

On the command post high ground, Jia Wangqiang lowered his binoculars, a satisfied smile curling on his lips.

"Immediately pull up this young martial artist's information."

"Yes, sir!"

"Regiment Commander, his name is Lin Ye. He's an elite martial artist recruited by headquarters, with a combat rank of High-tier War General. As for his Psychic Master status and other details... our clearance isn't high enough to access them!"

The intelligence chief reported in a low voice.

"Oh!?"

Hearing this, Jia Wangqiang frowned at first, then relaxed. "Forget it, forget it... No need to dig deeper. He's our comrade-in-arms regardless of his background."

After witnessing Lin Ye's overwhelming killing power, the gloom that had weighed on Jia Wangqiang's heart was swept away.

In high spirits, he declared loudly, "Once the battle's over, I'm going to have a drink with him myself!"

A full three minutes passed before the enhancement ended.

When he checked his information again, Lin Ye was astonished to find.

The panel had actually changed—this was the first time since he awakened a year ago.

Code [Name: Lin Ye] [Realm: Primary War God (1/100)] [Body Technique: Perfect Level (Proficiency 5/100)] [Psychic Power: Intermediate War God] [Domain: Not Activated (Gray)] [Clone: Not Activated (Gray)] [...]

After this Point Allocation, he felt as though he had been reborn—the change was immense!

A surge of exhilaration from the sudden increase in newfound power welled up within him.

Lin Ye slowly opened his eyes, letting the bright morning light spill over him, the smile on his lips growing wider.

Pulling out his phone, he opened WeChat and sent a message to Xu Qi.

The content was simple: "Secretary Xu, I've become a War God. Remember to vote (and add money)!"
