"Boom! Boom! Boom..."
Heavy drumbeats came from the city wall.
The whole world was filled with a murderous atmosphere, and even the clouds in the sky had darkened.
"General, I'm afraid the Hun army is about to launch a fierce assault." A lieutenant general said with a solemn expression.
Yang Ye looked calm: "It doesn't matter. As long as I'm here at Anning Pass, the Huns won't be able to break through it in a short while."
"Send up two more battalions of soldiers to defend the city." Yang Ye gave the order.
"Yes!"
A lieutenant general clasped his fists, then turned around to convey the order and send two battalions of soldiers to the city wall to defend the city.
Each battalion consisted of two thousand men. Yang Ye directly sent up two battalions, four thousand men in total. Added to the more than two thousand men from the two battalions already on the city wall,
the number of defending soldiers had increased to over six thousand.
Half of the men in those two battalions had already been killed in battle.
Six thousand men to defend the city was enough. Any more and there wouldn't be enough space on the city wall. There was no need to send too many people up.
Anyway, as the defenders, they had a natural advantage and could continuously send troops up from the rear.
...
"Huai'an, old chap, be careful and stay alive. When the battle is over, I'll treat you to some wine and fun at Yichun House in the city." Wang Wu said, and then he stepped forward to continue fighting the enemy.
"Sure, it's a deal. Let's have a good time together then." Sheng Huai'an also shouted with a laugh.
More and more enemies were climbing onto the city wall. Sheng Huai'an charged towards the places where there were more Hun enemies, fighting recklessly without caring about his life.
The Blood Fiend Saber Technique was wielded vigorously in his hands. The weaker Hun enemies couldn't even block one of his strikes.
"One, two, three..."
"One point, two points, three points..."
Sheng Huai'an was counting silently in his heart as he fought. With his current strength, comparable to the early stage of a martial artist, he continuously cut down the Hun enemies at the martial apprentice level.
He was like a Blood Fiend God of War, and his battle robe had been dyed red with the blood of the enemies.
Just when he was in the heat of the battle, suddenly he felt several powerful auras approaching, which made his heart tremble.
Five burly figures leaped up from the Hun army below the city wall and landed on it.
Auras were surging around them, their true essence was surging, and their qi was being released outward.
With one palm strike, the qi was like a tidal wave, directly sending more than a dozen soldiers flying.
Just with a palm strike from a distance, those dozen soldiers were sent flying backward, covered in blood, and none of them survived.
In an instant, the five Hun strongmen had killed hundreds of defenders, and a small section of the city wall had been cleared of people by them.
Fortunately, Sheng Huai'an was far away. Otherwise, with one palm strike, he would have been dead too.
No wonder Wang Wu had told him to be careful. When real strongmen climbed onto the city wall, they could kill a whole bunch of people with one slap.
"How dare you! Dare to massacre our Great Wei soldiers!"
"It seems that the Left Wise King of the Huns is in a hurry to break through the city and has actually sent five innate martial artists to attack the city."
"Hurry up and take action. Otherwise, the ordinary soldiers on the city wall will soon be killed by them all."
On the city tower, five men who looked like generals also appeared. They leaped down from the tower onto the city wall and stood in front of the five Huns.
"You Hun bandits, don't think you can get away with this!" A bearded lieutenant general shouted angrily.
"Wei dogs, we thought you didn't dare to come out and fight. Hahaha." A Hun strongman laughed loudly.
"Kill them, seize the city wall, and let the army enter the pass." Another Hun innate strongman said.
"Kill!"
"Kill them!"
"Boom!!"
Instantly, the ten of them were engaged in a fierce battle. The surging of their qi and the intimidating pressure made ordinary soldiers dare not approach.
That section of the city wall had become the battlefield of the ten of them.
From a distance, Sheng Huai'an could feel the intense intimidating pressure.
"Whew, are these the martial arts strongmen?" He wasn't afraid. Instead, he was a bit excited and thrilled.
Such strongmen were what he had always aspired to be.
Soon, the killing value had increased to 60 points again.
Name: Sheng Huai'an
Race: Human Race
Realm: Great Perfection of Martial Apprentice (+)
Cultivation Methods: ["Mang Niu Jin" (Minor Success)], ["Blood Fiend Saber Technique" (Minor Success)]
Strength: 1,500 catties
Talent: Bronze Archer (+)
Killing Value: 60
After taking a glance at the golden light curtain, he saw that his cultivation could be upgraded again.
Sheng Huai'an was excited. It seemed that he could break through to the realm of a martial artist today.
Looking at the continuously approaching Hun army attacking the city, Sheng Huai'an didn't hesitate to use the points to upgrade his cultivation.
On this battlefield, the stronger one's strength was, the greater the chance of survival.
Those with low strength were just cannon fodder and had almost all been killed.
With one click to add points, a powerful force flowed through his whole body, constantly scouring and tempering his body and bones.
Sheng Huai'an also felt the vast power within his body, constantly strengthening his flesh and skin.
His imposing manner had increased significantly, and his strength had also undergone earth-shaking changes again.
Name: Sheng Huai'an
Race: Human Race
Realm: Limit of Martial Apprentice
Cultivation Methods: ["Mang Niu Jin" (Minor Success)], ["Blood Fiend Saber Technique" (Minor Success)]
Strength: 2,000 catties
Talent: Bronze Archer (+)
Killing Value: 20
After taking a glance at the light curtain, Sheng Huai'an was dumbfounded. What on earth was the Limit of Martial Apprentice?
Wasn't the division of martial arts into the initial stage, middle stage, later stage, and great perfection of each realm?
He had consumed 40 killing values, but it turned out to be the Limit of Martial Apprentice.
He had thought that it would consume 60 killing values and he would break through to the realm of a martial artist.
However, it was also good. His strength had increased by 500 catties, reaching 2,000 catties.
His strength had been upgraded again. Although he didn't have martial arts true essence within his body, his overall strength was not weaker than that of a martial artist at the middle stage of cultivation.
After his strength had been broken through, Sheng Huai'an continued to fight fiercely, but deliberately avoided the battlefield where the ten strongmen were fighting.
That section of the city wall had become a no-go zone. Whether it was the defenders or the Hun army, they all stayed far away and didn't dare to approach.
Any stray qi from the battle could easily kill a martial artist. Who would be so reckless as to go up there on their own?
After his strength had increased significantly, in just a short while, Sheng Huai'an had killed more than a dozen Hun soldiers who had climbed onto the city wall.
"Stop!"
A loud shout came from behind Sheng Huai'an.
Sheng Huai'an turned around and saw a burly Hun man with a thick waist glaring at him angrily.
"Swish!!"
Sheng Huai'an swung his knife and with one strike, killed a Hun enemy at the initial stage of martial apprentice.
"I told you to stop. Didn't you hear me?" The Hun burly man looked at Sheng Huai'an with a gloomy gaze, his face full of killing intent.
"I heard you. But should I stop just because you told me to? Idiot." Sheng Huai'an wiped the blood-stained knife with his robe and said calmly.
Were these Huns all idiots? He was actually told to stop on the battlefield.
"Seeking death!"
"You little martial apprentice, I'll chop off your head, you Wei dog."
The Hun burly man raised a big knife and chopped at him.
Sheng Huai'an directly used the Blood Fiend Saber Technique to fight back and knocked the burly man down to the ground in three moves.
"You... How could you be so strong?" The Hun burly man's eyes were full of disbelief.
He was at the initial stage of a martial artist, a centurion in the Hun army, yet he had been knocked down by a martial apprentice.
"A mere martial artist, ridiculous. Is a martial artist really that strong? You're the second Hun martial artist I've killed." Sheng Huai'an chopped off the other's head with one strike.
The killing value directly increased by five points.
By killing a Hun enemy at the initial stage of a martial artist, he got five killing values.
"Sure enough, the stronger the strength, the more killing values one gets." Sheng Huai'an murmured.
However, on the battlefield, after all, there were more ordinary soldiers, and it was faster to kill them.
"Did this kid take some kind of super tonic? His strength has increased so quickly." Not far away, Wang Wu noticed that Sheng Huai'an had actually killed another Hun enemy at the initial stage of a martial artist and couldn't help but be amazed.
It hadn't been long, but his strength was almost catching up with his own.
Could it be that there really were martial arts prodigies in this world?!
Wang Wu's heart was very unsettled.
Sheng Huai'an was like a fierce tiger and God of Slaughter, and soon he had killed more than twenty Hun enemies and arrived at Wang Wu's side.
"Brother Wang, what are the cultivation levels of those five Hun strongmen and the five generals?" Sheng Huai'an asked.
"Innate martial artists!"
Wang Wu killed a Hun soldier with one strike before answering.
"Innate martial artists?!" Sheng Huai'an's eyes were full of longing.
He also wanted to grow up quickly and become an innate martial artist. Sheng Huai'an made up his mind secretly in his heart.
