After verifying the deployment orders, the next step was to confirm the number of personnel. One by one, the Cultivators from the Great Zhou Academy stepped forward to cross-reference the members of the Qingyuan Alliance.
"Oh? So the situation on the front lines is grim?"
Fang Qingyuan walked side-by-side with Ji Xinzhao. Behind each of them followed a squad of Foundation Establishment Cultivators.
"It's far from good. The Pill Alliance and the White Mountain Sword Sect suffered significant losses in the battle to retake the islands. The Spirit Wood and Li Huo Alliances, who went in as the second wave, are also having a tough time. However, of the fallen islands in the western part of our defensive line, only a third of them are yet to be recaptured. Since you avoided the initial impact, you must now take on the task of tackling the toughest targets."
