In addition, to enhance his strength and acquire more Imperial Coins, Lian Yun planned to bring his parents back to Huaxia to finalize his marriage. Although his abilities were restricted, improvement was essential.
The first Ultimate Emperor took all possible measures to complete the task within three months, while the second took a year. If there were no other circumstances, Lian Yun would have to wait an indefinite amount of time. The only way to speed up the process of lowering and raising his realm was to strengthen his Mental Power.
This was the primary reason why Lian Yun suddenly decided to trade with the leaders of other regions in Yin City; he needed a large amount of Supreme Soul Coins.
Furthermore, after his journey in the Demon Realm, Lian Yun discovered that his avatar in Yin-Yang City could extract Mental Power, which could then be replenished by the avatar in Yin City.
Although this process was tedious and time-consuming, the extracted Mental Power could be traded. He could give it to his parents or share it with his three uncles or cousins.
After all, with his main body absent and unable to absorb Purple Qi, his combat ability in the polluted realm had significantly decreased. It would not be easy for Three Golden Hairs to facilitate multiple people leaving Yin Yang City.
While Three Golden Hairs were busy with their own affairs, Lian Yun's main body in Cloud Nation was preparing for the Battle of the Gambling City.
After Cloud Nation extended a strong invitation to the Five Neighboring Countries, they also sent out 'strong' invitations to their other neighboring countries. Soon after, a grand event involving the Sixteen Kingdoms was established.
However, the Sixteen Kingdoms needed to discuss the timing of the Military Exercise Battle and the number of troops deployed, as well as specific criteria. Once detailed regulations were finalized, each kingdom began preparations and training.
Three months later, each of the Sixteen Kingdoms gathered ten thousand troops at Allies.
If they were going to gamble, they would go all in. The Sixteen Kingdoms ultimately decided that during this first Military Exercise Battle involving all kingdoms, the victor would gain control over fifteen cities—a significant prize indeed.
Initially, Lian Yun intended to participate personally but was stopped by the officials. Given that swords and blades are blind, even a single arrow could threaten Lian Yun's life. The officials were unwilling to let him take such risks.
Moreover, many among them were Peak Monarchs or Monarchs who understood that Lian Yun needed to focus on improving his strength now that he had resolved his inner conflicts.
Thus, over the past three months, many domestic matters did not require Lian Yun's decision-making; instead, officials discussed and voted on issues collectively. They did not disregard Lian Yun as their ruler; they simply hoped he could have more time for cultivation.
After all, the current situation in Huaxia was only temporary. Once the Earth Formation was lifted, only those with sufficient strength could protect a nation.
Under normal circumstances, generals within the country could enhance their power; however, resources were limited now. With limited Realm Power available, even uniting all of Huaxia's strength might not produce an emperor-level figure. Thus, with Lian Yun's unmatched capabilities as a ruler, it was most appropriate for him to lead as emperor.
Additionally, there were several regulations regarding the Military Exercise Battle among the Sixteen Kingdoms. Firstly, each participating force was limited to ten thousand troops, and only one person holding the title of King could participate. Other positions could be freely assigned by each country.
To ensure relative fairness before battle, it was stipulated that among every Ten Thousand People from each country, no individual could possess more than three stones of power.
As for the battle strategy, one nation may choose to concentrate the strength of Ten Thousand People into a force of one thousand or even one hundred, which is a decision made by the Countries themselves.
This outlines the personnel regulations, followed by the criteria for victory and defeat.
Each nation has its own flag; if the flag is captured or the entire army is annihilated, that nation loses.
To win, one must capture the flags of the other Fifteen Nations or eliminate all combatants from the Fifteen Nations.
The final confrontation will take place in Allies.
Allies is formed by Xu Wenchang leading the remaining members of the alliance. They do not seek to clash; as long as a nation can occupy two-thirds of Huaxia's territory, it will submit to that nation. This serves as an embellishment but also accelerates national unification.
Despite not seeking conflict, they possess considerable strength and advanced technology, with Hundred Schools Academy among them, giving Allies a somewhat transcendent status.
On the side of Cloud Nation, Han Huang is an Innocent Civilian and thus cannot ascend to the Throne. However, he participates in battle as a strategist, with Zhou Tong taking the lead.
Regardless of how things unfold initially, Zhou Tong's ability to perceive sound and form images provides at least a chance for a counterattack; his presence nearly guarantees an invincible position.
Additionally, Jiang Ao needs to remain in the country to handle various matters.
Zhou Tong, Jiang Ao, and Han Huang must have at least one person stay within Cloud Nation so that Lian Yun can focus on her cultivation.
Moreover, selecting ten thousand soldiers requires careful consideration.
For instance, should you choose those with exactly three stone strength, those with less than three stone strength, or those who have dropped from four stone to three stone strength?
The first option is not particularly advantageous; the second can provide Realm Power to the third type of individual.
The ratio of these three types must align with the battle strategy of the Countries.
However, this is merely the most basic selection since the competition takes place in an empty city. Generally, cavalry holds little significance. Thus, scouts and archers will become the primary combat force.
With ten thousand soldiers, there are countless ways to configure them; the possibilities are endless.
Yet surprisingly, Han Huang from Cloud Nation chose three thousand Innocent Civilians, unnecessarily reducing their total combat strength by thirty percent, leaving all Fifteen Nations astonished.
However, when the battle began, apart from the Allies within the Sixteen Kingdoms, all the Fifteen Nations hurried into the city to occupy temporary strongholds. Meanwhile, the Three Thousand Innocent Civilians of Cloud Nation dispersed and infiltrated the interiors of the other Fifteen Nations, including the Allies.
Although the Allies participated in this Military Exercise Battle, they followed a national policy where any nation that could muster two-thirds of the strength would surrender directly to that nation.
Yet, the Innocent Civilians of Cloud Nation still managed to infiltrate the Ten Thousand People forces of the Allies.
Their purpose was to incite rebellion; all Three Thousand Innocent Civilians boldly and unabashedly attempted to sway the subordinates of military strategists and leaders from various Countries.
Such brazen actions left the leaders of the Fourteen Nations both shocked and furious.
Firstly, many of those leading the charge among the Fourteen Nations were disciples from Hundred Schools Academy who were well aware of Han Huang's reputation. They believed that these Three Thousand Innocent Civilians were certainly not as simple as they appeared.
However, many were still infuriated by Cloud Nation's audacious behavior, which felt like a slap in the face. The two neighboring nations of Cloud Nation rashly attacked but returned with only seven or eight hundred troops left behind after less than three minutes without achieving anything.
This also made other countries realize that Cloud Nation indeed had the audacity to back it up.
It should be noted that apart from the Three Thousand Innocent Civilians, over seven thousand others were essentially scout unit types. Moreover, they all hailed from Evil Spirit City, known for their fierce and ruthless nature, each one could be described as brutal.
