Chapter 1338 Stripped of Name
Upon witnessing this, Wu Min instantly realized that escaping alone was impossible.
With a slippery move of his feet, he bolted directly towards the direction of the Human race.
However, there was still a considerable distance between them.
The cultivators at the Grand Perfection of Core Formation from the Demonic realm immediately moved to intercept him.
But this time, someone stepped forward to block them for Wu Min!
Among the Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators rushing from the Land of Hope were Jin Chi Wang, in addition to Jing You Shui.
Neither of them was willing to back down and charged forward.
Although there weren't many true powerhouses left among the remaining Core Formation cultivators of the Human race, their numbers were substantial.
At the very least, they showed no weakness in terms of morale.
"Jing You Shui, you old fool, I always thought you had something going on with Jiang Jian Tao back then. I never imagined you'd still be helping the Human race after all this time."
"Does the Jin Chi clan intend to be stripped of their name among the Demon race?"
...
Surprisingly, the two sides did not engage in full-blown combat.
These Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators chose to resort to insults instead!
In their eyes, these two individuals should have been standing with them, not with the Human race.
Jing You Shui let out a cold snort, cast a sideways glance at these individuals, and said word by word, "If you want to fight, then fight. If you're too scared to, then scram back to where you came from!"
"Do you really consider yourselves to be the Demon Capital?"
"I doubt more than a few of you can even muster ten Core Formation realm cultivators!"
Jing You Shui's words were filled with disdain. The reason was simple: their strength, in his opinion, was not on the same level as the Human race.
While the Human race currently lacked Grand Perfection of Core Formation realm cultivators, several of their individuals were more powerful than ordinary Grand Perfection cultivators.
As for the number of Core Formation cultivators, that was even more so.
In just a few months, students in the Land of Hope Academy were already reaching the Core Formation realm, a situation that had never occurred before.
Jing You Shui had initially thought that the Land of Hope Academy would at most help these individuals reach the Foundation Establishment realm.
But he never expected Chen Yang to invest so much in this area.
The spiritual stones consumed by the students were far greater than those consumed by the Core Formation cultivators of the Land of Hope.
This demonstrated Chen Yang's determination.
If this trend continued, it wouldn't be long before the total number of Core Formation realm cultivators of the Human race surpassed that of the most powerful faction in the Demonic realm, becoming the largest in number.
While the quantity of Core Formation cultivators did not equate to quality, the number of Core Formation cultivators determined the possibility of the Human race producing Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators, and the longer the time, the more advantageous it was for the Human race.
"Jing You Shui, as long as you don't interfere, we'll leave a share for you after we've dealt with the Human race."
"That's an opportunity to become a Nascent Soul realm cultivator!"
"Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite. How many Core Formation realm cultivators are there in the Forget Worry Sea Domain?"
Faced with their threats and enticements, Jing You Shui burst into laughter.
No Core Formation realm cultivators in the Forget Worry Sea Domain?
That was simply because he couldn't control those fellows!
If they dared to try, he would see.
All the Core Formation realm cultivators in the Forget Worry Sea Domain were within the Divine Sea. They lacked sentience and would even dare to collide with him if provoked!
Jing You Shui wasn't worried about his own rear, but he did glance at Jin Chi Wang beside him.
Although both he and Jin Chi Wang were from the Demon race, there were significant differences between them.
The overall strength of the Jin Chi clan was weaker, and their location was relatively remote.
However, fortunately, the younger generation of their clan had excellent talent, and there was a high probability of producing a second Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivator, making various factions reluctant to provoke such an existence.
But now, Jin Chi Wang of the Jin Chi clan appearing here, and moreover, helping the Human race, was not good news.
Jin Chi Wang saw Jing You Shui's gaze fall upon him and immediately understood what the latter was thinking.
Jin Chi Wang chuckled, "My son is still in the Land of Hope, and he quite likes it there."
"The Human race and my Jin Chi clan also... Chen Yang has a Dao Heart contract with me. He is willing to help both of my sons become Grand Perfection of Core Formation realm cultivators free of charge."
"Previously, I was somewhat concerned that the Human race's strength might not be sufficient, but now, I can see that Chen Yang is not joking."
Jin Chi Wang's face was filled with joy.
Although he was the king of the Jin Chi clan and possessed many resources, he couldn't place the entire clan's hope on his two sons.
He dared not gamble, nor could he afford to.
This was also why he had agreed to send Jin Chi Yan to the Land of Hope Academy back then.
Chen Yang didn't mention needing anything in return, as protecting the Land of Hope was an unspoken understanding.
As Jin Chi Yan spoke, several figures suddenly appeared in the distance of the battlefield.
"Hmm? Grand Perfection of Core Formation realm cultivators?"
Everyone turned their gaze towards them.
Although their numbers were not large, these individuals were all Core Formation realm cultivators.
More importantly, these individuals were not from the Human race.
Jin Chi Yan and Jing You Shui frowned. It was already extremely difficult for them and the Human race's Core Formation realm cultivators to face so many Grand Perfection cultivators.
If a few more arrived, they might have to consider a retreat.
Jing You Shui cast a sideways glance at the closing spatial通道. The old shopkeeper had only sent them over and had not personally come, stating that he needed to protect the Land of Hope.
Jing You Shui understood, but couldn't they have been brought back?
With the old shopkeeper present, their speed in the chaotic space would have been significantly faster than usual.
The time it took for this round trip...
Just as Jing You Shui was pondering this, the arriving Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators said somewhat apologetically to Chen Shu, "We rushed over as soon as we received the news."
"Did we cause any delay?"
Chen Shu nodded slowly, "You've arrived at the perfect time!"
Jin Chi Wang whispered to Jing You Shui, "These people seem to have sent their offspring to the Land of Hope Academy. They are all classmates of my Yan'er. I suspect Chen Yang also has some agreement with them."
Jin Chi Wang's guess was not wrong.
After all, to gather so many people in the Land of Hope, Chen Yang couldn't rely solely on his silver tongue.
At the very least, he had to make some agreements with them.
The Land of Hope Academy would use the best teachers to instruct them, helping them become Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators as soon as possible.
At first, everyone had dismissed this statement with a laugh.
After all, the Land of Hope itself did not have Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivators. Although the strongest, Shi Xin Chou, possessed the strength to fight against a Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivator, it didn't mean he could become a true Grand Perfection of Core Formation cultivator.
But things were different now. The strength displayed by the Human race...
Perhaps there was a real chance to achieve the goal Chen Yang had spoken of.
At the very least, they were aware of the monthly spirit stone consumption by the special class students.
