Chapter 1183: Chapter 1183: Current Situation of Jade Cauldron Sect

"These damned bastards are so arrogant. Do they really think we’re afraid of them? I’m going out there now to tear them apart."

"Don’t be impulsive. Don’t let them provoke your emotions. We were told from above that no one is allowed to go out and fight the Divine Flame Alliance army without orders."

Faced with the provocation of the Divine Flame Alliance army, the soldiers of the Red Soul Hall were seething with anger, eager to rush out and challenge them. However, they were stopped by other martial artists of the Red Soul Hall.

The Divine Flame Alliance army was surprised at the patience of the demon cultivators of the Red Soul Hall.

After all, they had cursed at their noses, yet these guys could still endure.

Seeing that they couldn’t infuriate the army of the Red Soul Hall, the warriors of the Divine Flame Alliance had no choice but to give up.

Wang Ye and others took out a jade token, injected their spiritual power into it, and a screen displaying a list appeared before them.

This list recorded the military merit rankings of the Divine Flame Alliance army, especially the top one thousand on the merit leaderboard.

To everyone, this naturally served as significant motivation. After all, who wouldn’t want to know their ranking on the military merit board at all times?

After all, the closer to the top of the board, the more military merit points one has, and the more resources and magic treasures one could exchange for.

To be fair, some sect patriarchs and supreme elders had canceled their eligibility to be on the board, giving more opportunities to the young people.

After all, it’s a bit embarrassing for patriarch-level seniors like them to compete with everyone for military achievements.

Similarly, Lin Chen also canceled his chance to be on the board, as the resources all came from him. If he were to take a share, wouldn’t it be taking his own resources?

Another important reason why those patriarchs removed themselves from the military merit board is that rising talents like Wang Xuan and Wang Ye had military merits that were in no way inferior to some of the patriarchs.

This embarrassed those patriarchs, so as soon as they noticed, they quickly withdrew their eligibility from the board.

Even when Wang Xuan changed camps, she quickly stood out and took root in the new camp, becoming the new military commander.

Because there were many martial artists in the Divine Flame Alliance army who were not from the Jade Cauldron Sect, many people were unaware of the rumors about Wang Xuan and Lin Chen, and many newcomers pursued the outstanding Wang Xuan.

However, no one could catch Wang Xuan’s eye.

After all, someone as excellent as her was only well-matched with someone like Lin Chen.

And some of Wang Xuan’s former followers knew well that in Wang Xuan’s heart, Lin Chen was the important one. She already liked Lin Chen but didn’t dare to express her love and confess.

Wang Ye and others also understood Lin Chen.

Regarding matters between men and women, Lin Chen already had many women around him, and he avoided those belonging to him, fearing jealousy among them, so if Wang Xuan didn’t take the initiative to express her love, she might never get a response from Lin Chen throughout her life.

Looking at their rankings on the military merit board, some felt satisfied, while others were not and believed they could improve their rankings by continuing to fight.

After all, the Divine Flame Alliance army now takes pride in this military merit board.

However, just as everyone was checking the military merit board, Wang Ye suddenly noticed that some martial artists’ military merit rankings had risen significantly.

He frowned, realizing that without a battle against the Red Soul Hall army, how could the military merit board change?

Could it be someone violated orders and secretly went out to kill the Red Soul Hall army?

Immediately, Wang Ye inquired within the army and learned that it was Wang Meng, who, with a group of martial artists from the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect, couldn’t bear the boredom and left the camp. They went to the front of the Red Soul Hall army, taunting and ridiculing them in an attempt to provoke them into a fight, thus gaining military merits.

However, this tactic proved quite effective. Although many martial artists of the Red Soul Hall could endure the insults and taunts, many couldn’t stand the arrogance of the Divine Flame Alliance martial artists.

Regarding this matter, Wang Ye felt that Wang Meng and his group cleverly exploited a loophole in the military orders.

In this way, they could earn military merits without technically violating military orders, making it a clever move.

Thus, Wang Ye also led some of his men to employ this method to kill the demon cultivators of the Red Soul Hall.

Not long after, this method spread within the Divine Flame Alliance. As a result, the battles between the Divine Flame Alliance and the Red Soul Hall shifted from large-scale frontal battles to small-scale skirmishes.

Later, when this reached Lin Chen’s ears, he was both amused and exasperated, never expecting these guys to cleverly exploit a loophole in this way to earn military merits.

However, Lin Chen did not amend the military orders and allowed the army’s way of engaging with the Red Soul Hall.

Because, by using this method, they might gradually test the true strength of the Red Soul Hall.

Lin Chen felt this way of battling was very suitable for honing the new troops, so he brought them out to train them in this manner.

In the course of fighting with the Red Soul Hall, Lin Chen never stopped encouraging Lian Tianxing to recruit, expanding the Divine Flame Alliance army.

Nowadays, not to mention the forces from other areas, just the Jade Cauldron Sect’s army alone has reached about five million.

Among them, more than three hundred thousand are veteran troops, over one hundred thousand are new recruits, and more than one hundred thousand are logistics troops.

Regarding this, the Jade Cauldron Sect already has every qualification to be ranked among the seven superpowers of the Eastern Domain.

Even the other six major sects can no longer compare with the Jade Cauldron Sect.

Even the Spirit Sword Sect cannot match the current Jade Cauldron Sect.

And the current Jade Cauldron Sect is not lacking in high-end combat strength.

In recent years, people like Xu Ma’an, Yang Yuemin, Li Hanyi, and Li Xuanming have all broken through in their cultivation, becoming the top forces of the Jade Cauldron Sect.

To transform the Jade Cauldron Sect into the superpower it is today, Lin Chen invested countless resources.

Moreover, the new recruits enlisted later had almost no requirements; as long as they had courage and determination, the Jade Cauldron Sect didn’t care about their strength.

Because with the vast manpower and financial resources dedicated to training in the Jade Cauldron Sect, even martial artists of the Spirit Gathering Realm could quickly break through.
