<strong>Chapter 826 - Preparing for War</strong>


    Themotion gradually tuned down from the numerous shh-ing noises. Every single expert in the Great Havew Domain sighed, since no one had expected for Mu Chen, a Third Grade Sovereign, to be the biggest winner in this King’s Ceremony.


    Envy and shock were filled in those sighs. But there wasn’t any more contempt because the strength that Mu Chen had disyed on the King’s Ceremony Stage had left every single expert of the Great Havew Domain shocked.


    His cultivation to Fourth Grade Sovereign, and adding on the other identity of an Earth-Grade Spiritual Array Grandmaster, was equivalent to a Fifth Grade Sovereign. Even amongst the Great Havew Domain that was filled with experts, he could be considered an outstanding elite.


    Therefore, despite many people being envious by the fact that Mu Chen could be the tenth King, no one felt unsatisfied by it. After all, strength was the key in many ces, and the strength that was disyed by Mu Chen deserved to be acknowledged and respected by the experts in the Great Havew Domain.


    He was no longer the Sovereign Realm newbie from a year ago when he just entered the Great Havew Domain.


    Furthermore, the current Nine Nether Pce that was behind Mu Chen couldn’t be viewed as it was in the past. In the past, the Nine Nether Pce was the weakest force amongst the Nine Kings, thus suffering many contempts. But, in the past year, the Nine Nether Pce powerfully rose with a reputation of gradually growing stronger. The most crucial point was that right now, the Nine Nether Pce was the only force in the Great Havew Domain with two Kings!


    That meant that the resources that the Nine Nether Pce would receive would be double that of the other King forces. Under the support of such vast resources, it went without saying that the Nine Nether Pce would grow stronger.


    Perhaps, in the future, the situation of the strongest force in the Great Havew Domain would change... Therefore, it was evidently foolish to offend Mu Chen and the Nine Nether Pce right now.


    In this King’s Ceremony, aside from Mu Chen bing the biggest winner, the Greaw City’s City Lord, Qin Zhong had gotten quite a bit of benefit as well. Although he was not bestowed with the title of King, after seeing his contributions for the Great Havew Domain, Mand promised to help him break through to Fifth Grade Sovereign. As long as he managed to break through to Fifth Grade Sovereign, he would be the eleventh King in the Great Havew Domain after the Hunting War.


    This grace had undoubtedly made Qin Zhong extremely excited. Although many others were envious of him, Mand had also clearly stated that in this Hunting War, there would be rewards for contributors. Furthermore, the rewards were something that even the various Kings were tempted by, not to mention the other experts. Thus, the atmosphere in the entire Great Havew Domain was roused up with soaring fighting intent.


    Seeing this situation, Mu Chen also couldn’t help inwardly smacking his lips. Mand was truly skilled in managing her subordinates. She was, indeed, worthy as the only Ruler of the Great Havew Domain.


    After the King’s Ceremony came to an end, Mu Chen stayed in the Nine Nether Pce to quietly cultivate and stabilize the chaotic Spiritual Energy from his breakthrough to Fourth Grade Sovereign. In addition, his remaining energy was spent on training the Nine Nether Troops. With the Hunting War approaching, Mu Chen could sense the atmosphere in the Great Havew Domain gradually getting tense and solemn.


    Although their Great Havew Domain was a peak force in the Northern Region, there would be peak forces being destroyed and devoured by the other peak forces in every Hunting War. The experts in those forces could only flee for their lives or join other forces. But that sort of failure would be mocked, no matter where they went.


    Therefore, the Hunting War was directly concerning themselves. So, as to not be stray dogs, they had to give it their all so that the Great Havew Domain could survive the Hunting War.


    Therefore, the entire Great Havew Domain was in preparation for war in this period of time, enveloped in an oppressed and tensed atmosphere.


    The Nine Nether Pce was, naturally, not spared from that atmosphere. Although Mu Chen was bestowed the title of King, the Nine Nether Troop was still under his control. With the expansion of the Nine Nether Troop in the past year, the scale of it had increased several folds. In addition to the ample cultivation resources that the Nine Nether Pce was entitled to, the Nine Nether Troop could be considered as a powerful army with a strength several times stronger than a year ago.


    ording to Mu Chen’s spections, he might have to borrow the strength of the Nine Nether Troop in this Hunting War. Therefore, he could not afford to rx, since he needed to be coordinated with this troop.


    Nine Nether Pce, in a vast training field


    The Nine Nether Troop, which was enveloped in ck armour, was training in the field. All of them were quietly sitting as a pitch-ck Battle Will surged from their bodies and gathered above them.


    The Battle Will looked like a ck surging ocean that was filled with roars that caused the entire region to faintly tremble.


    At the front of the Nine Nether Troop, Mu Chen sat on a lion statue with his hands joined together. Light faintly flickered in his eyes as Spiritual Energy gushed out of his body, soaring into the vast ocean of Battle Will above the Nine Nether Troop.


    Mu Chen would need the Battle Will of the Nine Nether Troop to ept him if he wanted to control it, so his Spiritual Energy wandered within the vast Battle Will.


    In the past, Mu Chen’s coordination with the Nine Nether Troop was pretty good. But due to this period of time, when he was busy with the Dragon-Phoenix Haven, the King’s Ceremony and the expansion of the Nine Nether Troop, the coordination between them hadcked behind. Now that he had the time, he naturally had to put in the time to fix the coordination with the Nine Nether Troop.


    Mu Chen spent two hours nurturing the coordination between them before he opened his eyes and looked at the Nine Nether Troop, which was like a ck ocean with dense ck clouds of Battle Will above them. Vaguely, there were hissing noises that came from them, which sounded like lightning that would strike fear in the hearts of others.


    Although the strength of a single warrior in the Nine Nether Troop wasn’t anything to fear in Mu Chen’s eyes, he would feel slightly pressured if their Battle Will had gathered together.


    ording to Mu Chen’s spections, if he could control the Battle Will of the Nine Nether Troop with his cultivation at Fourth Grade Sovereign, he could even easily suppress Fifth Grade Sovereign veterans.


    “Although the Nine Nether Troop is powerful, it’s still toockingpared to the Great Havew Army.” Mu Chen sighed as he looked at the Nine Nether Troop. Despite the strength of the Nine Nether Troop having been constantly rising, there was still a huge gap between them and the strongest army in the Great Havew Domain, the Great Havew Army.


    But due to the fact that the Great Havew Army was too powerful, Mu Chen knew that it wasn’t an easy task to control the Battle Will of the Great Havew Army. Furthermore, Mu Chen guessed that not even the Great Commander of the Great Havew Army, Huo Mei’er could fully control the Battle Will of the Great Havew Army.


    There were nearly a thousand people in the Great Havew Army, and every single one of them had their strength in the Sovereign Realm. If such a dreadful Battle Will could be controlled, probably only Mand and the Three Emperors could confront them in the Great Havew Domain.


    “The Hunting War is probably the ce where those troops are put to use.” Mu Chen muttered to himself. In the Hunting War, the strength of an individual was greatly inadequate, unless one was as strong as the Three Emperors. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to control the situation. Thus, they would have to rely on the power of troops.


    “Looks like the Hunting War will not be easy.”


    Mu Chen couldn’t help sighing as he looked out of the Nine Nether Pce. With the Hunting War approaching, he could clearly sense the changes in atmosphere in the entire Great Havew Domain. The troops of the various Kings had been training every day and the killing aura could be felt from so far away. It was so much so that even Nine Nether had started to seclude herself in cultivation, leaving the affairs of the Nine Nether Pce to him. But, fortunately, without a housekeeper like Tang Bing, even he would have the thoughts of escaping from here.


    But from this, he could judge how brutal the Hunting War was. Even their Great Havew Domain was in great danger, since no one could guarantee that the Great Havew Domain would remain in the Northern Region after this Hunting War.


    Thinking about this matter, Mu Chen’s heart felt a lot more heavy. Although there were people that he didn’t like, the shelter that it provided him had allowed Mu Chen’s strength to soar in the past year. Thus, he was grateful to the Great Havew Domain.


    Not to mention that Mand was the Ruler of the Great Havew Domain, and Mu Chen had quite a bit of a favourable opinion about that two-faced little queen that was cute on the outside but possessed absolute strength. After all, Mand had given him quite a bit of help in the past year. The crucial part was that Mand had never treated him as a subordinate, the rtionship between the both of them had exceeded their status.


    Therefore, it would be hard for Mu Chen to ept if the Great Havew Domain was to be defeated and devoured by others in this Hunting War.


    “Looks like I can only give it my all to do my part.” Mu Chen bitterly smiled. With his nasty rtionship with the Sky Profound Pce, Liu Tiandao would definitely not let him off if the Great Havew Domain was gone.


    Mu Chen shook his head and waved his hand,manding the Nine Nether Troop to continue training.


    Buzz!


    But just as Mu Chen waved his hand, he saw space fluctuate before him and a petite figure stepped out from the distorted space. She waved her hand and ten jade bottles flew towards Mu Chen.


    When those jade bottles flew towards Mu Chen, her tender voice was mixed with hatred as it resounded.


    “Take them, the ten Divine Beasts’ Blood Essences that you wanted.”


    “Bastard, I had to travel to all therge auction houses in the Northern Region just to gather these ten Divine Beasts’ Blood Essences!”
