"Im sure that everyone here should know about the upcoming monster stampede next week." Duan Li said.

Everyone nodded solemnly.

Unlike those in the past, the monster stampede that will come around knocking at the Jiu Border this time would be massive in numbers!

For even the whole student populace were being put into a standby, this was probably the first time that it had ever happened and showed how grave the entire situation to be.

Naturally, they now knew the cause of it, and it was because 'Time' has retaliated against the changes that they were trying to make.

Duan Li turned towards Shen Lu as the latter nodded.

"First of all, let me just tell everyone here that the purpose of this meeting would be to discuss on our group formation, and basically, we have two roles here, the Vanguard and the Rear-guard." Shen Lu said.

"I'm pretty sure that everyone here knows what these roles meant, but for the sake of completeness, let me just describe them out briefly."

"Vanguards, their job would be to take on the frontlines, whittling out the enemy numbers. Rear-guards on the other hand, will protect the rear while at the same time making sure that any monsters that the Vanguards missed would be eliminated. Furthermore, the Rear-guards would carry out supportive roles for the Vanguards as well."

Flip!

Shen Lu whipped out a jade slip and inserted it into one of the slots on the round table.

Woongg!

The projector in the middle of the round table displayed a large map in the form of a hologram.

"In this monster stampede, the whole 81 members of the First squad of the Subjugation team will be deployed, with the Second and Third squad being put into standby."

"For the main attacking force, the academy will deploy 6,000 students to participate in this battle, and the battlefield would be split into three fronts namely, the Blastwinter desert on the North where they will emerge from, the Grand canyon of our borders, and finally the Greenplains of the Jiu Empire."

Shen Lu said as he circled out three location on the map using his spiritual Qi.

"Therefore, our forces will also be split into three as well, which means; 27 members from the First squad along with 2,000 students for each front! The 2,000 students will then be divided further into smaller groups consisting of 30 to 50 people each, and they are called 'Division'. Each of these 'Division' will then be commanded by a captain from the First squad."

"So there would be a total of 27 divisions altogether for each front then?" Xu Rong asked.

"That's right! Any other questions so far?" Shen Lu asked the others.

Shen Murong raised his hand.

"As we are being split into three fronts, does that mean the first front will take most of the brunt of the monster stampede and would pass the baton to the second front once they got tired of fighting or something like that?" he asked with a confused expression.

"No.." Shen Lu shook his head.

"The 30,000 One star monsters in this monster stampede would be forcefully split into three as well. Imagine them coming as rivers from upstream, by placing a wedge in between their flow, they would be split into two!"

"Using this analogy, the monster stampede would be split into two on the first front. About 10,000 of them would be allowed to enter before closing the path down. The remaining monsters would then meet at the second front, and repeating the same method, another 10,000 would be redirected and the remaining monsters will then go towards the third front." Shen Lu explained.

"What about the overall battle prowess from each fronts?" Fei Longwei spoke out.

"Among the 2,000 students from each fronts, about 300 would be Early stage Core formation realm seniors, 700 would be Pinnacle stage Foundation establishment realm Sophomores while the remaining 1,000 would be Late stage and Middle stage Foundation establishment realm students." Shen Lu answered.

Fei Longwei nodded, the ratio should be about right. Being an ex-member of the Subjugation squad, he naturally knew how their operation works;

They would use the weaker students to support them from behind while taking over the glory!

"That reminds me, rumors said that you were part of the Subjugation squad before, why did you leave?" Xu Rong by the side asked.

Fei Longwei sighed as he reminisced about the past before answering.

"I was recommended by one of the Senior Teachers because my Dark arts were mostly useful in an area attack. I did join in a few missions before, but I couldn't stand their constant ridicules of me.. so I attacked them."

"You attacked them? So because someone died, you got kicked out?" Xu Rong inquiried with a frown.

Pu! Fei Longwei choked out.

"Don't be stupid! Attack and murder are two different things! They only came out with bruises in the end, but because they made the complaints to the upper management, I was kicked out." he explained with gritted teeth.

"I see.. well, its not that hard to guess the reason as to why you were being ridiculed. A sophomore that had yet to reach the Core formation realm was able to join part of the Subjugation squad, they must've think that you used the back door." Guo He said as he popped down a pill as if eating snacks.

Fei Longwei nodded to Guo He statement.

"So that's the case.. but let's get back to the topic.." Shen Lu said as he continued;

"Everyone here were probably already aware that the groups would be assigned randomly by the management of the Academy. However, for followers under the banner of a Lord, we will be forming a group of our own, separate from the others."

"Although this could be considered as an advantage due to us being able to coordinate much better this way, but our small numbers also proves to be our disadvantage as well."

Hearing this, Shen Murong laughed out loud.

"HAHA! I alone could beat a few dozens of them single-handedly. What we have here is quality, not quantity! We don't actually need a lot of people!"

Shen Lu chuckled and nodded when he heard this.

"Indeed, but if no one were to support you from behind, would you be able to survive? These are monsters we are talking about here, the kind that would try to kill you without a second thought. Compared to fighting against humans, the difficulties are vastly different!" Shen Lu reminded him.

"Hmm.. yeah you're right." Shen Murong said slowly as he scratched the back of his head, feeling a little bit embarrassed for speaking too soon.

"That is why we need to finalize the roles for each one of us! By which, this would be decided by our Lord." Shen Lu said.

Duan Li nodded.

"As Shen Lu just said, we need to fix our roles and formation for the upcoming battle. But before that, I have a few objective in mind for us to be able to coordinate properly." he said.

"Our first priority, contrary to my first thought, was that instead of attacking, we would be defending instead!"

Eh?

Defending? Not attacking?

The others were caught a off guard and showed an expression filled with confusion.

Even Shen Lu was surprised and had not expected for Duan Li to propose them to defend instead of attacking!

He had thought that Duan Li would be planning on going all out, but after thinking about the matter deeply, he vaguely understands the reason why.

"The reason for this is because we now know the cause for this unusual monster stampede. Therefore, in my opinion, there would probably be some unaccounted variables being put into play by 'Time'!" Duan Li explained.

"By holding our fort down, not only would we not subject ourselves to those uncertainties, we could also observe how the battlefield will turn out. If things turn dangerous, the Second and Third squad would definitely move forward to help us."

"But, if we move carelessly into the battlefield, once we are getting overrun, even if they came to help, it would be too late for us to retreat into the safe zone!"

Hearing this from Duan Li, the others nodded their head in agreement to his insights.

So its like that!

"Our second priority, would be to collect monster cores as much as we could! I have uses for them in the future, and right now, I could not explain it yet, but it would be beneficial for us!"

Oh? Monster cores!

Fine by us, its good for cultivation purposes anyway.

"Our third priority, if the battlefield somehow turns out easier than expected, would be.. to show off our battle prowess to the others!" Duan Li said with a little bit of an excitement apparent in his tone.

Huh?

The others were strucked with dumbstares as they listened to that last sentence.

Showing off our strength? What for?
