Xiao Ziyan's astonished gaze swept across the East China Army.
Frankly, she had little faith in this approach to fighting as organized legions.
For one thing, low-tier Transcendents could hardly contribute much even in a large-scale war.
After all, their offensive power was practically negligible against a demon tide.
For another, raising the overall strength of a legion of Transcendents meant spending vast resources to cultivate a whole group of low-tier Transcendents.
In Xiao Ziyan's eyes, those resources would be better spent cultivating a single top-tier Transcendent.

Yet now, throughout East China in Great Xia, legions of Classholders numbering in the tens of thousands marched toward the front in perfectly ordered formations.
Standing high above them, Xiao Ziyan could clearly sense their fighting spirit, along with something she could not quite describe. It was as though they truly intended to face this terrifying demon tide themselves!

When Wan Jiang had won first place in the East China Army's recruit tournament, his reward had been nothing more than a rare-grade weapon.
That alone showed how poor the other soldiers' equipment must have been.
Today, Great Xia was
