"Dean Ye, our academy is also preparing to dispatch manpower to join the Tianxuan Army."
Xie Changkong and other high-level members of the academy came to consult with Ye Yunfei.
After the battle at Shenfeng City, Ye Yunfei's status within Hudao Academy had risen dramatically.
Now, the highest positions in Hudao Academy were held by Elder He, Xie Changkong, and Ye Yunfei.
No one within the entire academy dared to slight Vice Dean Ye Yunfei.
"Dean Xie, approximately how many people in our academy are at the Mystic Liquid Realm, Yuan Foundation Realm, and True Manifestation Realm?" Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and asked.
"For those with Mystic Liquid Realm strength, there are roughly over four hundred.
For Yuan Foundation Realm strength, roughly over two thousand.
For True Manifestation Realm strength, roughly over six thousand.
Dean Ye, ever since you provided a large number of medicinal pills, the number of people in our academy at the Mystic Liquid Realm and Yuan Foundation Realm has been rapidly increasing," Dean Shangguan replied.
"In that case, gather everyone in the academy at the True Manifestation Realm or above. I want to conduct special training for them," Ye Yunfei said.
"Special training?"
The high-level members were all taken aback.
"Yes.
I want to establish two combat formations," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Combat formations!"
Upon hearing Ye Yunfei's words, Xie Changkong and the other high-level members were utterly shocked.
It was common knowledge that on the battlefield, with the same number of people, forming a combat formation could unleash much greater combat power.
Everyone knew the fearsome nature of combat formations.
But the problem was, the secret methods for cultivating combat formations were too precious, too rare.
On a low-level continent like Tianxuan, no such secret arts for cultivating combat formations had been passed down.
Therefore, for warriors on the Tianxuan Continent, combat formations were merely legendary things.
"Dean Ye, do you have a secret method for cultivating combat formations?" Xie Changkong asked cautiously.
If anyone else had said such a thing, these high-level members of Hudao Academy definitely would not have believed it.
But Ye Yunfei was different.
Ye Yunfei was too mysterious. The various profound techniques and martial skills he displayed were unimaginable to the warriors of Tianxuan Continent.
"Yes.
I indeed have a secret method for cultivating combat formations," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"Excellent!
Dean Ye, then we'll follow your intention!
Gather everyone at the True Manifestation Realm or above and let Dean Ye train them!" Xie Changkong said excitedly.
The other high-level members were also extremely excited.
Soon, everyone in the academy at the True Manifestation Realm or above was gathered in Hudao Plaza.
The Hudao Stele stood erect in the center of the plaza, towering into the clouds.
Ye Yunfei had already placed the Hudao Stele back in Hudao Plaza upon his return.
After all, the Hudao Stele was a symbol of Hudao Academy.
At this moment.
Within the plaza, over eight thousand people had gathered.
Most were students.
A small portion belonged to the academy's middle level, such as martial instructors and stewards.
Following Ye Yunfei's request, these over eight thousand people were divided into two units.
Each unit had over four thousand people.
Xie Changkong and the other academy high-level members stood curiously at the side of the plaza, intending to see how Ye Yunfei would train these people.
"Everyone, starting now, you will all cultivate together a technique called the Slaughtering Art!
The Slaughtering Art is a law-creation technique specifically designed for slaughter. It can refine one's own killing intent to the extreme, thereby stimulating the deep-seated potential within the human body, unleashing several times the usual lethality!" Ye Yunfei declared loudly.
"Moreover, the Slaughtering Art has another function: it can condense the killing intent of hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people to form a combat formation!
This kind of formation is called the Slaughter Formation!
The more people in the Slaughter Formation, the greater the power that can be unleashed.
On the battlefield, once an army forms the Slaughter Formation and condenses the killing intent of all its members, it will produce powerful, ever-victorious might!
It will become an unconquerable army!" Ye Yunfei continued.
Within the plaza, the over eight thousand people were all heated with fervor, extremely excited.
"Alright.
Now, I will take you to a place to cultivate the Slaughtering Art together.
I hope you will not disappoint me. Understood?" Ye Yunfei said.
"Rest assured, Dean Ye, we understand!"
The over eight thousand people roared in unison, their voices shaking the heavens.
"Good."
Ye Yunfei nodded with satisfaction.
The next moment.
Ye Yunfei willed it, teleporting all eight thousand-plus people into the Phantom Tower.
Inside the Phantom Tower, there were hundreds of kilometers of space, more than enough.
More importantly, the flow of time inside the Phantom Tower differed from the outside world—it was a hundred times faster.
Inside the Phantom Tower, these eight thousand-plus people had ample time to cultivate at their leisure.
One must know that the Otherworldly Army had already attacked Central Continent, so time was extremely pressing.
Next.
Ye Yunfei began imparting the Slaughtering Art to these eight thousand-plus people, personally guiding them in their cultivation.
Back in Hudao Plaza.
Xie Changkong and the other academy high-level members looked at each other and smiled wryly.
They had wanted to see how Ye Yunfei would train those eight thousand-plus people in the combat formation.
Never expected that Ye Yunfei would take those eight thousand-plus people and vanish.
Of course, they knew Ye Yunfei had taken those people into a spatial treasure.
"Dean Ye's way of doing things is truly mysterious and unfathomable," Dean Shangguan laughed.
"Anyway, we can rest assured with Dean Ye in charge.
Don't look at Dean Ye's young age; we old folks are far from matching him," Xie Changkong sighed emotionally.
"No comparison, it's simply impossible to compare," a guardian elder also sighed.
At this moment.
Inside the Phantom Tower.
"Kill! Kill! Kill..."
Angry shouts of "kill" rose one after another, continuously ringing out.
Over eight thousand people were all cultivating the Slaughtering Art. Their killing intent soared to the heavens as they held various weapons, continuously making moves, frantically battling against the air as if charging through thousands of troops on the battlefield!
After cultivating the Slaughtering Art, these people had entered a very special state.
The savagery and ferocity in their hearts were fully stimulated, and the killing intent on their bodies multiplied!
At this moment, each of them was fierce and vigorous. The killing intent they released was extremely intense, condensed into a mass. Viewed from afar, the rolling killing intent was like smoke signals, churning wildly.
Even faintly, the phantom of a Slaughter Deity began to appear.
This Slaughter Deity held two sharp giant axes in its hands, its body reaching for the heavens and earth, erupting with a torrent of fierce and sinister energy, its aura reaching the pinnacle of brutality.
"Hmm.
The students of Hudao Academy are indeed outstanding talents selected from various regions.
Their comprehension abilities are particularly strong. So quickly, they have cultivated the Slaughtering Art with proper form and substance."
Ye Yunfei couldn't help but nod in approval.
