Chapter 156: Chapter 155 Battle Formation?

Lin Fan chuckled and shook his head, saying, "Brother Tian Ci, being the top of the Green Mountain List, naturally has some pride, and that’s understandable!"

Nangong Jing looked at Lin Fan with some surprise and asked, "You understand him?"

Lin Fan nodded and replied, "Yes, I naturally understand him!"

"You..."

Nangong Jing spoke somewhat hurriedly, "Alright, I can’t be bothered with you!"

After saying that, Nangong Jing huffily moved aside.

Lin Fan continued, "Alright, since everyone believes in me, let’s begin. But I must say beforehand, the upcoming intensive training will be extremely painful. If anyone cannot persist, it might all be for nothing. So, please think it over carefully, does everyone really want to participate in the training?"

"Ready to participate!"

"I have considered it as well, ready to participate!"

Everyone expressed their willingness to participate.

In such a situation, naturally, no one wants to show themselves as cowards.

"Very good!"

Lin Fan nodded and then said, "Then let’s start!"

At this point, Lin Fan paused briefly, and soon performed an extremely difficult move, which was complicated because it exceeded the normal range of human motion; it utilized Physical Energy to synchronize the muscles and bones of the hands and wrap them around the body three times.

First the left hand, then the right hand, continuously repeating the wrapping motion.

Stretching muscles was one matter – everyone present had a strong foundation in Physical Energy.

But the issue was...

Stretching the bones was much more difficult.

A slight carelessness could cause fundamental damage to the bones.

At the same time, Lin Fan instructed, "Remember, do not rely on brute force to stretch. Do you remember the Cultivation Technique I taught you? Follow the first layer of that technique to synchronize the stretching of your muscles and bones."

Everyone started to follow Lin Fan’s instructions.

However, they sadly realized that it was simply impossible.

Some even had trouble just with stretching the muscles, let alone the bones.

Just an hour later, there was a surge of collective frustration. Someone complained, "Lin Fan, stop torturing us. It’s simply impossible to succeed, as it’s impossible for us to wrap our hands around our bodies three times."

"Yes, I also think it defies common sense!"

"I think, if that’s how the training is going to be, I might choose to give up!"

Everyone was voicing their thoughts one after another.

Lin Fan gestured for everyone to stop talking and asked, "Do you truly believe that this movement is impossible to accomplish?"

Everyone nodded.

Lin Fan then said, "Very well, then can anyone tell me why I can perform this movement? Why can I do it, but you all cannot? Remember, I am only ranked fiftieth on the Green Mountain List, while all of your rankings are higher than mine. Are you really lesser than me?"

Lin Fan was using a motivational tactic!

But it must be admitted, this motivational approach was extremely effective.

After Lin Fan’s statement, everyone’s expression became visibly distressed.

Indeed, Lin Fan’s ranking on the Green Mountain List was even lower than theirs.

Yet, if Lin Fan could achieve it, why couldn’t they?

"No, I can’t give up!"

"I must achieve it!"

"I, will definitely not be inferior to Lin Fan!"

Everyone thought this way in their hearts.

Lin Fan then said, "Everyone must remember, to hasten your comprehension and thinking, I believe, everyone can indeed achieve it!"

...

Following this, everyone began to cultivate fervently.

They all cultivated according to the guidance Lin Fan provided.

Although, the movements Lin Fan created were more difficult than the next.

But, these fellows still completed each movement resolutely, gritting their teeth.

Finally, ten days passed.

Just as Lin Fan said, among them, even those with the weakest Body Cultivation Realm had reached the Profound Martial Cultivation.

More impressively, Nangong Jing and Li Rou, along with the previously second-ranked on the Green Mountain List, Zhang Gang, and Luo Yuan who had earlier persuaded everyone to believe in Lin Fan, reached the Earth Martial Level in Body Cultivation Realm.

To be honest, even though this outcome had truly occurred to them.

They still felt as if they were in a dream.

Even now, they could hardly believe that within just ten days, their Body Cultivation Realm had improved so quickly?

"Congratulations to you all!"

Lin Fan said loudly, "After these ten days of cultivation, everyone’s progress has been quite remarkable. Next, we can prepare to conquer the Boqi Kingdom!"

Zhang Gang said, "Junior brother Lin Fan, although we have all achieved good results these ten days, our strength, to be used to conquer the Boqi Kingdom, seems really too overconfident. After all, in the Boqi Kingdom, there are quite a number of people at the Earth Martial Level and many at the Profound Martial Level, plus the native army of the Boqi Kingdom, so our rash attack would be too risky!"

Others also said: "Yes, it’s too risky!"

Even Li Rou stepped forward and said, "Lin Fan, what Zhang Gang said makes sense. It indeed seems risky for us to do this. We still have some time; we need to consider our plan thoroughly. Moreover, even if we fail to conquer the small world, it’s not a big deal; we will have plenty of opportunities later. It’s really not worth taking such a risk!"

The others didn’t speak.

However, they all looked at Lin Fan with skeptical eyes.

Obviously, they thought Lin Fan’s approach was very risky.

Lin Fan didn’t mind and smiled, "I understand exactly what everyone is thinking, but..."

At this point, Lin Fan paused for a moment before continuing, "What I want to tell everyone is, I, Lin Fan, never fight a battle without assurance. You may feel that our strength is still weak, that we are not capable of confronting the Boqi Kingdom, but what I want to tell you is, today, we already have sufficient strength!"

"This..."

Everyone looked at Lin Fan, puzzled.

They wanted to say something, but no one spoke up.

Lin Fan continued, "Just as everyone worries, if we attack rashly like this, not to mention forty people, even four hundred or four thousand would not be enough for the Boqi Kingdom to consider a threat, they would just crush us directly."

"However, what if we combine it with an Array?"

"If we coordinate with each other and set up a spear-like Battle Formation, utterly invincible, one that destroys gods and buddhas in its path, how could the Boqi Kingdom possibly withstand us?"

"Once, we completely break through the Central Army of the Boqi Kingdom, it would essentially mean the Boqi Kingdom has been defeated!"

"Then, wouldn’t we have conquered the Boqi Kingdom?"

To be honest, everyone was somewhat stirred by Lin Fan’s words.

If it was really as Lin Fan said, and there truly was such an Array, it would indeed be possible to handle the Boqi Kingdom.

The only issue is...

Is there really such an Array?
