Chapter 917 - 831: United in Purpose

Quickly, the three teams gathered to discuss strategies."The Earth Demon Tribe ahead has at least over a thousand Earth Demons at the Fifth Level of Martial Emperor, and there is also a tribe leader at the Martial Saint Third Level. To deal with them, dividing our forces into three paths might not be a good idea!"

One Martial Saint said.

The chief examiner had previously told them that they must complete the task of eliminating those Earth Demon Tribes within six hours.

If none of them suffer any losses, the task will be considered perfectly completed.

If they can eliminate the Earth Demon Tribe ahead of time, they will receive bonus points.

The chief examiner only suggested they divide into three paths for action, but did not provide any further suggestion on how many paths they should split into or what means they should use to attack the Earth Demon Tribe ahead; they were simply responsible for recording and documenting from the side.

Duan Gujin understood the core of this task was to test the unity and cooperation of them, the Martial Saints.

If any of these Martial Saints harbored selfish intentions, the ones with selfish intentions would be punished.

In his past life, Duan Gujin participated in the eradication of these Earth Demon Tribes, but at that time he used various Divine Weapons for assistance, and he also used poison to intoxicate those Earth Demons.

Once those Earth Demons were poisoned, no matter how powerful they were, they were like fish on the chopping block, ready for Duan Gujin to slaughter.

But now, the chief examiner does not allow them to use poisonous means to incapacitate the Earth Demons, but rather requires them to use their brains and find ways to eliminate the Earth Demons ahead.

The twenty Martial Saints gathered and felt that they should not act dispersedly.

"We should concentrate all forces, to launch a sneak attack on the Earth Demon Tribe ahead, eliminate as many Earth Demons as possible! If we truly divide into three paths, each path will have to withstand a lot of Earth Demon attacks!"

One Martial Saint said.

"This method is good!"

Thus, a group of Martial Saints decided to first attack the Earth Demon Tribe ahead, draw out a portion of the Earth Demons, and focus on eliminating that portion first.

Duan Gujin agreed to this suggestion; he knew that to eliminate the Earth Demons ahead, the most important strategy was to find ways to scatter their forces, preventing them from concentrating their forces to attack them.

In terms of numbers, they didn't hold any advantage at all.

Though each of their Combat Power was significantly stronger than most of the Earth Demons, the sheer number of Earth Demons ahead was overwhelming.

The Earth Demon Tribe ahead has at least over a thousand Earth Demons at the Fifth Level of Martial Emperor, implying that each Martial Saint must eliminate fifty or more Earth Demons at the Fifth Level, a difficulty easy to imagine.

Duan Gujin did not think of a good way to deal with the Earth Demon leader ahead, he only thought of capturing the thief by capturing the king first.

But his suggestion was opposed by other Martial Saints, who thought they were not leading soldiers in battle, their task was only to eliminate as many Earth Demons as possible.

They, like Duan Gujin, wished to capture the king first, but they knew that the Earth Demon Tribe leader definitely had many experts protecting him.

If they drew out the tribe leader, he would be accompanied by many Earth Demons.

Undoubtedly, this would make it very difficult for them to eliminate the numerously abundant Earth Demons.

Duan Gujin did not oppose the doubts of other Martial Saints.

He understood that it was reasonable for the other Martial Saints to think this way.

In fact, the thoughts of other Martial Saints were entirely correct; if he truly drew out the tribe leader, certainly many Earth Demons would follow him out.

If time were sufficient, Duan Gujin would think of drawing out the tribe leader, then having the other Martial Saints destroy the nest of the Earth Demon Tribe.

In this way, once the old lair was destroyed, the tribe leader would lead other Earth Demons to seek a new shelter.

"If there were more time, that Earth Demon Tribe would be ultimately annihilated!"

But now they have less than six hours left, and their Dark Weapons and Elixir Pills are insufficient to engage in a prolonged battle.

Duan Gujin knew they wouldn't ponder for too long, they must make a decision immediately.

After a while, the group of Martial Saints agreed on a plan.

They divided into two paths, one was to draw out part of the Earth Demons, while the other two teams would cut off the retreat, ensuring that those Earth Demons couldn't return.

This method was the safest, and through this method, they could also understand the true Combat Power of those Earth Demon Tribes.

Duan Gujin immediately agreed with this strategy.

Thus, one team of eight was responsible for drawing out a portion of Earth Demons, while the other two teams were responsible for cutting off the retreat, obstructing that part of the Earth Demons.

Thus, the initially chosen main attack force moved closer to the Earth Demon Tribe ahead, attempting to draw out a portion of Earth Demons.

However, to their disappointment, they found that they had drawn out half of the Earth Demon Tribe.

Seeing the Earth Demon force ahead of them, numbering at least over five hundred, Duan Gujin and the Martial Saints inhaled sharply.

They knew very well, if they truly surrounded the five hundred plus Earth Demon forces ahead, with their strength, they might be completely annihilated.

"So that's how it is! Those from the Divine World knew about the Earth Demon Tribes being like this all along!"

Upon discovering the Earth Demon forces' numbers surpassed five hundred, the twenty Martial Saints didn't launch an attack.

The chief examiner had warned them that once their team suffered any losses, the surviving members would only receive eighty percent of the points.

If the team lost two companions, the surviving members would only get sixty percent of the points.

If the team lost four companions, the team would be dissolved, and no one would receive any points.

Faced with such stringent requirements, the Martial Saints present could only accept.

Under normal circumstances, they would surely come up with various schemes.

But now, faced with the stringent requirements set by the Divine World, they dared not play any tricks.

Some Martial Saints understood this test requirement as needing to work together; to complete this test would be impossible through the usual solo combat boasting of bravery.

This test also stumped Duan Gujin.

If he had some poison on hand, he could infiltrate the Earth Demon Tribe ahead and poison those Earth Demons.

For him, this would be a simple and efficient way to eliminate Earth Demons.

But these twenty Martial Saints, unable to utilize their treasures, facing the thousand-strong Earth Demons ahead, aiming to defeat the opponent, the difficulty was immense—nearly impossible.

The gathered Martial Saints inhaled deeply, their minds thinking fast, searching for solutions.

But, no matter how much they thought, they couldn't come up with any plans.

Among the Martial Saints, many had poison stored inside their storage rings, but the chief examiner warned them, prohibiting them from using any of their treasures to eliminate the Earth Demons ahead, insisting they use treasures provided by the Divine World to eliminate the Earth Demons.
