Chapter 73 - Broken Limits.

An hour before the beast tide approached.

Most of the people from the younger generation were here.

Nie Li, Du Ze and others, Ziyun and Ning'Er, Lanruo and Chen Linjian. From the Chu Family, Long Family, other families, Alchemy Association, Ye Han, and so on.

They were standing on the wall; Tatsuya and Miyuki were in front of everyone else, looking towards the horizon waiting for the beast tide.

The command was left to Tatsuya; others were fine with it. Only Ye Han was pissed off because of this decision. He already knew there were too many people supporting the two of them to become the City Lord, but this was far too blunt.

He stepped forward with a calm face as if he was not pissed about the whole arrangement.

He calmly looked towards Tatsuya's back, "Brother Tatsuya, If you don't mind me asking. Why aren't the citizens being evacuated."

Others glanced at him but didn't say anything. They all wanted answers.

Tatsuya turned around, hearing Ye Han's voice; he looked at Ye Han, then his eyes scanned everyone in the crowd. He could see they all were clueless about it.

To some, it might seem like he was showing off his powers, or to some, it might look like he was doing this to fortify his position as the next city lord.

But, the answer was nothing as complex as that.

Tatsuya gazed at Ye Han, "Brother, do you know what is the rank that an average person in Glory City has achieved?"

Ye Han frowned, "You don't want the average person to fight? Right?"

Others also looked at Tatsuya suspiciously.

Tatsuya glanced at him with a slight smile, "nothing like that, so? do you know?"

Ye Han really didn't know; he never focused on anything like that, "They are White Rank mostly."

Tatsuya looked at the others, "Anyone else?"

Chen Linjian came forward, "Mostly are 1 or 2 Star Bronze Rank Fighter."

Tatsuya glanced at him before looking at others again, "Anyone else wants to try?"

Nie Li spoke with a smile on his face, "Most people are Bronze Rank; I have barely seen anyone that is not Bronze Rank."

Tatsuya looked towards Miyuki, who was standing by his side, "Miyuki?"

Miyuki smiled politely, "Yes! The average number of people is Bronze Rank; to be precise 3rd Rank Bronze is the lowest, many are 4th or 5th Rank Bronze. Some with more talent have stepped into silver rank." This was before the blood crystal pills were released

Hearing these numbers, everyone was dumbfounded. Even Ye Han's mouth twitched; he knew most of this credit will go to Tatsuya and Miyuki. Since those who had connections knew, they were the ones that popularized Foundation Cultivation Art.

Ye Han soon got hold of himself, "What does that have to do with not evacuating them."

Tatsuya continued without paying attention, "Then tell me, do you about the quantity of Silver and Gold Rank?"

Ye Han grimaced; even more, he didn't know, but he didn't want to answer the question and sound stupid.

Tatsuya knew they couldn't answer, "Quantity has changed in the last five years, we have more than a hundred thousand Silver Rank, Ten Thousand Gold Rank. Although most Gold Rank are fighters, because they have all practiced Hakuda, many are not weaker than Demon Spiritualists."

Ye Han's shoulders tensed, clenching fist, but soon he removed any trace of these emotions. He glared at Tatsuya; he thought Tatsuya was using his question as an opportunity to brag.

Tatsuya knew what he was thinking and shook his head in disappointment.

"Now, did you know that if we place the power of Glory City and upcoming beast tide, which will come out to be stronger in a frontal conflict?"

This question left everyone stunned; their first response was to say the Beast Tide. But, they had just heard the stats.

Nie Li was the first one to realize what Tatsuya was getting at.

He narrowed his eyes and spoke, "The people of Glory City are stronger."

They knew about the strength of the beast horde that was attacking. Currently, Glory City seemed stronger.

Tatsuya nodded in agreement, "Then can someone tell me why is it; that the Demon Beasts can cross hundreds of miles and reach the Glory City. While even the Black Gold rank experts have only seen a few miles outside the city?"

All these questions left most of them speechless. It was like their common sense was being challenged. Common sense told them that Beast Horde should be more powerful, but Glory City was the stronger one.

Common sense told then that only a few chosen could reach Bronze Rank, but before they even noticed, all people in Glory City had become Bronze Rank.

Common sense told them that they could go too far out because Demon Beasts are that much more powerful, and they will die, but hearing Tatsuya's word outside world didn't seem that scary.

"Fear..." Ziyun muttered.

Tatsuya heard that and gazed at Ziyun, "Good! say that out loud."

Ziyun was startled; she straightened her body, "fear!! It is because of fear."

Everyone came to a sudden realization. It was fear that was stopping the people or army from advancing.

Tatsuya nodded, and his gaze scanned everyone here, "We are not weak. We don't have to stay cooped up in this city. We can go out, explore, find more ruins, more treasures. That, in turn, would increase Glory City's strength even more. I don't want them to retreat because they don't need to. Without getting over this unnecessary fear, we won't be able to progress."

Everyone in the crowd, even those elders and family heads hiding in the illusion array, felt a strange excitement after hearing that. They had always thought of ways just to barely survive from the beast horde. They didn't imagine there was a possibility to overcome the beast horde. After hearing Tatsuya's words, they all felt it was possible. Maybe they could be as prosperous as the Empires back then. Unlike others in the crowd, they were the ones that also knew about the actual amount of Legends and Black Golds they had.

Ye Han gazed at Tatsuya; it was hard for him to refute or put Tatsuya down in any way, but he still didn't want to give up. "Brother Tatsuya, I understand that, but I am still against putting citizens' life in danger just for your whim."

Tatsuya glanced at Ye Han; before he could say anything, Nie Li stepped forward, "It would be fine! we have already know Tatsuya's plan would work."

Du Ze, Lu Piao, and others also stepped forward to support since they had seen.

Lanruo, Chen Linjian, Ning'Er, and Ziyun also stepped forward to support him.

Tatsuya just glanced at Ye Han, "You still have an hour; if you can find the City Lord and get permission for the evacuation, then I will order for one."

Ye Han cracked his knuckles, "That won't be enough time to evacuate!"

Tatsuya gazed at him, "Although it is a temporary one, that doesn't change the fact this is an army. There is a procedure to all this; you want an evacuation? Get me the orders for one. If you can't, then stand silently and preserve your strength."

"Don't fuck with me! You know that is not possible." Ye Han shouted.

Miyuki glanced at Ye Han, she wanted to shut him up, but Tatsuya put his hand on her shoulder, stopping her.

When Miyuki turned to look at him, he just shook his head.

Ye Han only saw Tatsuya turn his back towards him. He knew Tatsuya was baiting him; if he went out of control, and attacked, then he would be put down forcefully. He could only calm down and stand in with the others.

Time passed by,

Everyone was starting to become nervous. Although everyone was motivated after hearing about Glory City's strength from Tatsuya, those were just words. With the ground shaking and the sand covering the horizon, fear started to overwhelm them.

Tatsuya glanced at everyone; he could see most were nervous. Ning'Er was the only one who was worry-free, probably because of the blind trust she had in Tatsuya. Tatsuya felt a sense of happiness; he smiled and started walking towards the edge and jumped down.

"!!!"

"!!!!"

"!!"

The sudden turn of the event left everyone shocked before their brain could even process the event. A whitish-blue light started shining; it became bigger and bigger before it became almost a km long. When the light disappeared, what appeared in front of everyone was a gigantic humanoid appearance.

The figure was donning a Black and Golden armor. It had a dragon's tail, and the wings are made of swords, 15 on each side, himself also brandishing one.

The atmosphere it was emitting was strong enough that the beast horde in front of them stopped its footsteps, citizens of the Glory City looked at the figure that was so tall that it almost reached the clouds. Rather than fear, there was reverence in their eyes.

They had heard about the armor that the Young Lord wore. They knew who was inside that armor.

Ye Han was the one who was shaking the most; he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

The figure raised one of its hands, and in the distance, thousands of swords appeared all around the Glory City. Before long, they fell to the ground creating a large barricade stopping the beast horde from advancing.

The swords themselves were hundreds of meters tall, with barely any gap for the demon beasts to pass.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Nie Li had a bitter smile on his face. Although he saw it in the vision that Tatsuya showed him. But, he was still skeptical if it was really possible. Seeing the scene in front of him, he was sure Tatsuya had somehow surpassed the limits of this world.
