Muyin City, an eastern side hall.
An elder with half-white hair was sitting at the head of the hall, continuously rubbing his forehead. From his furrowed eyebrows, restless expression, and the constant motion of rubbing his forehead, it was clear that his mind was extremely anxious.
He was not alone in the hall; at least ten other people were seated below, three of whom looked even older than him, while the rest were mostly middle-aged.
"In the Earth-digging Realm, thirty-two village-level camps, all Cold Resistance Level and Earth-digging Realm Limit have been summoned into the city. In less than four months, the Town City Cold Resistance Level increased from just over three thousand to over five thousand. Do village-level camps have so many Cold Resistance Levels? Jin Mountain is clearly taking us for fools."
