If those Noble Families wished to guard the rear and not send troops to join the Vanguard Army, they had to pay a huge amount of resources. The higher a family's status, the more resources they were required to contribute.
Of course, the territories that those higher-status Noble Families and Clans could defend were also the most prosperous ones.
Some Noble Families that had begun to decline would dispatch their clan's elites to join the Vanguard Army, hunt Void Demons, and earn merits and resources. In this way, they could avoid the obligation of contributing vast resources.
In addition, if those Noble Families could conquer other territories on the Void Demon Battlefield and hold them, the Qianyuan Republic would recognize those lands as belonging to that family.
It was under this policy that countless Noble Families worked together to seize one territory after another from the hands of the Void Demons on the Void Demon Battlefield.
