s for defense, the enemy would have to shatter three thousand worlds before they could harm themselves.”Even with your exacting and discerning gaze, Your Majesty, there is nothing left to say but admi...As you anticipated, the battlefield didn't remain stable for long.

However, there were still considerable casualties on the side of the Zhenjie Army.

Don't even mention those expendable squads that were wiped out.

Even some elite teams suffered casualties and lost many men.

It can be said that this time, during the great tide of demon suppression, the Town Border Army paid a heavy price.

The casualties of the Town Guard were also heavy.

As for those talented individuals who came to hone their skills, needless to say.

Except for some extraordinary-born imperial descendants and disciples of great sects.

Some lesser powers, not to mention prodigies, would be utterly decimated. At most, only one-third or so would remain.

But on the side of the Three Emperors Barrier, such deaths were commonplace and no one cared.

Human life is worthless.

After some time had passed.

Those teams that went to the Starfall Realm have also returned one after another.

The Three Emperor Barrier, towering and endless, seemed to cleave the universe in two.

Stars encircle the city walls halfway up.

The essence of the cosmos, a swirling haze of chaotic mist.

This seems like an awe-inspiring and eternal monument.

Already, a number of people have arrived from the altar and the teleportation array to the revamped square.

Although the crowd still appears dense.

But compared to previous expeditions, there were obviously a lot fewer.

And many of them are wounded and have depleted qi and blood.

As for some prodigies, some turned ashen-faced, while others were shaken to their core.

Of course, some of the imperial clan geniuses and disciples of the Three Teachings performed fairly well, not as pathetic.

Xiahou Shencang's Ninth Squad also returned.

The number of people also suffered losses.

including that previous one who had designs on Lu Xingling, Hou Gu, was nowhere to be seen.

He didn't come back, he died in this wave of slaying demons.

However, Hougu if he were to know this from the afterlife, perhaps he would still feel fortunate.

Even if he comes back alive.

It is estimated that there will also be no life.

As is well known, Jun Xiaoyao is very protective of his loved ones.

And Lu Xinglei was the person he had his eye on.

Hougu died in the mouth of a monster, perhaps it was still a kind of happiness.

"Where's Yunxiao Has he not arrived yet, or... has he fallen"

Xiahou Shencang's figure was like a dragon and tiger, his aura still strong, he hadn't suffered too much injury.

As the young emperor of a noble lineage, his status demands he not be humiliated by a demonic tide.

He scanned the area, but couldn't find any sign of Jun Xiaoyao.

"Just dream on."

Even Yun Xuanxu and other Tianjiao from the Yun Clan's Imperial Family have returned.

They were not at all worried about Jun Xiaoyao.

To worry is to distrust Lord Xiaoyao's power.

"Well, I have to admit, he's not bad."

"But understand, that's the battlefield, not a one-on-one duel."

He was on a expendable team, maybe the whole team depended on him.

"Even the strongest individual will eventually reach their limits." Xiahou Shencang sneered.

He didn't question Jun Xiaoyao's strength, that would make him seem foolish.

But personal ability is one aspect.

This battlefield requires teamwork.

To be frank, if you weren't in a top-tier team like the Ninth Squad.

Even Xiahou Shencang wouldn't be able to guarantee his own safety.

And just then.

A voice suddenly sounded, serene and melodious.

"To my surprise, you seem to be quite concerned about this young master. "

Hearing this voice, Xiahou Shencang's face darkened.

Indeed, it's best not to entertain any illusions.

"Young master."

"Free and easy."

"Master."

The members of the Yun Imperial Clan, including Dantai Qingxuan, Dongfang Qingwu, Li Feiyan, and Li Youwei, all showed joy.

Although they believed in Jun Xiaoyao, they still couldn't help but feel some worry.

Jun Xiaoyao smiled faintly.

However, to the surprise of everyone present.

Not only has Jun Xiaoyao returned,

Even members of the 72nd squad mostly returned safe and sound.

"They are back"

"They're the cannon fodder squad at the front lines."

"To be alive after this, what kind of luck does one have"

All the Zhenjie Army troops present were dumbfounded.

Especially the captain of the ninth squad.

Their elite unit suffered heavy casualties, including the deputy captain Hou Gu.

How could the 72nd squad, this expendable force, have suffered so little damage

For a moment, everyone's eyes were drawn to Jun Xiaoyao.

There is no other reason except him.

"Oh, that's just the fate of Squad 72. You can only envy it."

Some border guard troops were quite envious.

Which team could get Jun Xiaoyao to join is simply incredibly fortunate.

Xiahou Shencang's eyes flickered, a hint of disbelief.

Could they have been hiding somewhere all along

Otherwise, how could Jun Xiaoyao have the ability to protect so many people

Doesn't this just highlight his incompetence

After all, his elite unit suffered heavy losses.

And at this moment, deep within the Three Emperors' Barrier, several elderly cultivators in archaic attire appeared.

All those within the Three Emperors Barrier were elders from previous generations.

Before the Purple Teng, who had been assigned troops before, also followed behind.

To see Jun Xiaoyao and the Seventy-two Squad safe and sound.

A strange glint flashed in Ziting's eyes.

"Well, everyone, you've all worked hard. I trust you've now witnessed the brutality of war."

But I want to say, this time the Demon Tide, it's not even an appetizer.

"When the Black Calamity clan truly erupts and ignites a war, it will be a catastrophe that engulfs the entire Sea of Realms."

"So we hope that you, the new generation, will grow up quickly."

"Alright, next we need to tally up your achievements."

At this point, some of the talented young people present blushed and lowered their heads in shame.

Not all prodigies are peerless monsters, and even in such circumstances, they can obtain merit.

However, some elite members of the Imperial Clan and disciples of the Three Teachings performed quite well.

There are those with nine ranks of merit and those with eight.

"Emperor's Family, Emperor Huafu, nine ranks of merit five pieces, eight ranks of merit three pieces."

Huangfu Jing, in a light-colored long dress, was graceful and beautiful.

The result was within her expectations.

"The Xiahou clan, Xiahou Shencang, nine ranks of merit eighteen items, eight ranks of merit seven items, and one item of seven ranks of merit."

"What!"

Upon hearing a statistic from an elder, the entire audience erupted in gasps of astonishment.

Xiahou Shencang, he actually received the rank of seventh-class military merit!

This achievement is already quite remarkable.

Even among the Town Guard, he wouldn't be lacking.

Not to mention that Xiahou Shencang was on his first expedition.

"Truly worthy of being the young king of the Xiahou clan."

Even Emperor Fu Jing couldn't help but sigh softly.

"The Yun Clan Emperor Family, Yun Xuantian, nine ranks of merit ten pieces, eight ranks of merit five pieces, seven ranks of merit one piece!"

A remark made by an elder sparked another wave of uproar.

The young king of the Yun clan, who had been sealed away by his ancestors, also attained seven meritorious deeds.

Yun Xuanxu stood with his hands behind his back, a calm expression on his face.

Some eyes turned to gaze at Jun Xiaoyao.

It has to be said, the Yun Clan Emperor Family, with the title of "Emperor Family's Head," is indeed well-deserved.

Setting aside the monster Jun Xiaoyao for a moment.

Yún Xuán Xū, indeed, hasn't brought shame to the Yún imperial clan. He is capable of rivaling young emperors like Xià Hòu Shén Cáng.

Xiahou Shencang's face darkened once more.

He felt overwhelmed.

At this moment, a veteran elder received Jun Xiaoyao's meritorious service token.

Even Lao Su was taken aback, his eyes widening in surprise.

Then he took a deep breath.

"The young master of the Yun clan, Yun Xiao, has achieved six meritorious deeds!"Any powerful divine ability would be weakened by these ten realms, layer upon layer, until its power was finally suppressed to the extreme.However!In Jun Xiaoyao's eyes, a glimmer shone.The function o...
