Early in the morning, there were no clouds in the sky, and a gentle breeze blew.
The Assassination Society's camp spanned a hundred miles. It was like an ancient beast, circling five miles away from the central mountain range.
Early in the morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone on the ground, accompanied by the thunderous sound of a bugle horn, all the soldiers of the two armies gathered here.
The North Region's army did not dare to relax. At the foot of the central mountain range, an army of more than a million was deployed, led by Long Woo-seok himself. All the Wu Huang of the North Region stood on either side of him.
Opposite them was the army of the Assassination Society, led by the president of the Assassination Society. There were more than three million people.
After the president came out of seclusion, he issued an order in the East Region for all the sects affiliated with the Assassination Society to attack.
In just one night, more than a million soldiers had arrived at the Assassination Society.
This battle was unavoidable.
"Is that the president of the Assassination Society?" Xiao Yin frowned as she looked at the army.
The higher-ups of the Assassination Society, the assassins, the vice president, and the president were all standing at the front line of the army. It seemed like they wanted to personally attack in this battle, not giving the North Region any chance.
Long Woo-seok's expression was solemn as he nodded.
The president was still wearing a large cotton coat on such a hot day. His image was indeed very outstanding.
This time, he had followed Zhong Shudao's suggestion and deployed a million soldiers at the foot of the mountain. The remaining 500,000 soldiers were all stationed at various corners of the central mountain range. He wanted to use the central mountain range's terrain to defend against the Assassination Society's army.
But no one had expected that in just one night, the Assassination Society had already gathered more than three million soldiers.
"President, should we attack?" Both sides were in a stalemate. Ye Shenghui asked the president's opinion in a low voice.
The president glanced at the North Region's army and smiled faintly. "How did you manage to attack this place?"
Hearing this, the higher-ups of the Assassination Society standing beside the president all kept quiet out of fear. None of them dared to make a sound.
"Even with Lin Yun, I'm afraid that you, Ye Shenghui, won't be able to cross Nu River alone, right?" the president said coldly.
Ye Shenghui's face turned red. He didn't dare to explain further.
Indeed, with his ability, as long as he personally led the army, the army of the Northern Region would have long been repelled by them.
However, he wholeheartedly wanted the treasure on Lin Yun so that he could find an opportunity to become a Saint. That was why he had placed the Northern Region Army in the headquarters.
Time passed quietly, but the president still did not give the order to mobilize the troops.
On the other side, everyone from the Northern Region was sweating profusely. The Assassination Society's calmness made them feel pressured.
As for Xiao Yin and the rest, they stared at Ye Shenghui with hatred in their eyes.
After a long time, the president suddenly leaped up and disappeared. When he reappeared, he was already in the middle of the two armies.
When they saw their Guild Leader appear between the two armies, the soldiers on both sides tightened their grips on their weapons, ready to strike.
"Don't move!" Long Woo-seok quickly raised his hand to stop the soldiers behind him from attacking.
"What is the Guild Leader trying to do?" Assassin No. 2 was confused. He had no idea what the Guild Leader was trying to do.
"Don't talk too much. The Guild Leader has his own plans." Ye Shenghui's face was dark, but he wasn't flustered at all.
Even if more than a million soldiers from the Northern Region were to mobilize at the same time, they might not be a match for the Guild Leader.
This was the confidence that a Wu Sheng should have.
"If you want to fight, let's fight!" After instructing the others not to act rashly, Long Woo-seok leaped into the air. A pair of dragon wings spread open on his back, and he flew in front of the Guild Leader.
"Fight? Are you a match for me? "The Guild Leader had a look of disdain on his face. He had never cared about this motley crew from the Northern Region.
Long Woo-seok's expression was cold. Although he was angry, he couldn't do anything about it.
Just how strong was Wu Sheng?
Just by standing in front of the Guild Leader and looking him in the eye, he already felt an immense pressure. In fact, he even had the urge to submit to the Guild Leader.
"Since I'm in a good mood today, I'll treat it as doing a good deed. I'll play a game with you," the Guild Leader said calmly.
"A game?" Long Woo-seok frowned, looking confused.
"We'll each send three people. If you win, I'll give you one day to continue the chase. "
"If you lose, I'll personally take action."
The Guild Leader yawned, then made a suggestion that made everyone's expressions change.
Long Woo-seok lowered his head and pondered. This was a good suggestion.
Although the Central Mountain Range was easy to defend and difficult to attack, he had seen Ye Shenghui's strength.
He was merely a half-step Martial Sage, yet he already possessed such great power. Any terrain would be useless before him.
After a long time, Long Woo-seok raised his head and looked at the Guild Leader. "Will you take action?"
If each sect sent three people, it would mean three battles. If the Guild Leader didn't take action, Ye Shenghui would.
If they won two battles, it would be equivalent to buying them one day to retreat.
One day was enough for them to do many things.
"Do you think the game will still be fun if I take action?" The Guild Leader laughed. Suddenly, he reached out and patted Long Woo-seok's shoulder.
When Long Woo-seok saw the Guild Leader's outstretched hand, he instinctively wanted to dodge it. However, he found that his body was trembling slightly, and he couldn't move even half a step.
"I just want to see how you struggle before you die." The Guild Leader's demonic voice rang out in Long Woo-seok's ears.
In the next second, the Guild Leader disappeared and reappeared at the front lines of the Assassination Society's army.
"Alright!" When the Guild Leader's aura left, Long Woo-seok heaved a sigh of relief and agreed to the Guild Leader's suggestion.
After returning to the army, Long Woo-seok told everyone about this matter.
"No, Sect Leader Long!"
"Yeah, the Assassination Society is full of tricks. They must have some other scheme!"
"Why don't we fight to the death?"
Some people held a negative opinion and didn't want to play this so-called "game" with the Guild Leader.
"This is the only way at the moment."
"We can minimize our losses."
The faction led by Xiao Yin agreed with the Guild Leader's idea. After all, once the two armies started fighting, everyone would probably die here.
All the soldiers here were practically the mainstays of the Northern Region.
If they were to fall, then the assassins would march straight in, and the Northern Region would be in their pocket.
The two factions were in a deadlock, each with their own arguments. Long Woo-seok had no choice but to stop them and look at Zhong Shudao.
