#3230 - Xuanguang Continent

The Wang family's commitment of 20% of the personnel is a significant number, estimated to require hundreds of millions of Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage cultivators in successive batches.

Fortunately, the Wang family is large and prosperous, with numerous affiliated forces, and countless low-level cultivators at its disposal.

Moreover, the Wang family has always been on an upward trajectory, with extremely strong control over its subordinate forces.

"Ancestor, currently, the family has three Grand Ascension affiliated forces, thirty-two Body Integration affiliated forces, and over three hundred Void Refinement affiliated forces. The number of personnel that can be mobilized across the three continents exceeds ten billion. Even if we only consider Golden Core and Nascent Soul stage cultivators, there are at least billions available!"

Wang Hongli said while flipping through a small booklet. This data is only an approximation, as the turnover of low-level cultivators is high, making accurate statistics impossible.

The Wang family's three Grand Ascension affiliated forces are the Chao Tian Sword Sect, the Qing Dan Pavilion, and the Xuan Sheng Palace.

The Yuan family, Li family, and Chen family have also successively produced Grand Ascension cultivators, but they are more independent and have been assigned separate tasks, so they cannot be considered staunch vassals of the Wang family.

"Let's prepare more manpower, aiming for a final number of two hundred million. The family will provide sixty million. Although the risk is not small, the opportunity for experience is rare. Let the younger generations experience some trials and tribulations!"

Wang Hao said in a deep voice.

Talent that doesn't experience hardship is difficult to cultivate.

He thought for a moment and added, "The rewards should be generous, and the compensation as well. The casualties this time may be severe, unlike previous great battles!"

The Void War involves high-level forces. The previous war between the two major alliances rarely used large numbers of Golden Core cultivators. Relatively speaking, the family's Golden Core cultivators lack experience.

The family's environment is too good now. As long as a clansman's aptitude is three spiritual roots or higher, they can easily cultivate to the Golden Core stage by relying on the salary distributed by the family, even without leaving home.

High-level spiritual veins are so heaven-defying. Even without eighth-level spiritual veins, a Golden Core cultivator cultivating on a sixth-level spiritual vein for a day has a better effect than taking a third-level pill.

Cultivators with four or five spiritual roots cultivate more slowly and have more bottlenecks, but it is not particularly difficult for them to break through to the Golden Core stage.

They only need to pair it with some breakthrough pills, which are not expensive. As long as they contribute more to the family on weekdays, it is easy to exchange for them.

In short, cultivation is much easier for today's clansmen than it was for Wang Hao, Ji Xiaotang, and others.

The Wang family now has nearly five hundred million clansmen, four hundred million of whom are branches that have been separated. The main branch has always maintained a scale of one hundred million people.

The number of direct descendants in the main branch is even smaller. Only when a Grand Ascension stage cultivator appears in a branch can it be promoted to a direct line.

The number of people in a direct line cannot be expanded indefinitely. Only the direct bloodline of a Grand Ascension stage cultivator can be called direct descendants.

Of course, the Wang family never simply divides clansmen by bloodline.

Setting up direct lines is mainly a reward for Grand Ascension stage clansmen, to settle their descendants well so that they can concentrate on cultivation and contribute more to the family.

The elite clansman system is the key system for selecting talents. The selection of elite clansmen depends on aptitude and contribution. Wang Hao and other high-level members will also pay attention from time to time to ensure relative fairness.

The family has many talents, and dispatching sixty million cultivators is not a crippling blow.

"Husband, cleaning up the Demon City doesn't require so many people in the early stages. Should we find something else to do?" Ji Xiaotang asked in a deep voice.

The Wang family has enough manpower and resources available, and high-level cultivators are not required to move out on a large scale. It can be said that the Wang family's many Grand Ascension and Body Integration stage experts are somewhat idle.

Obviously, something else must be found to do. It would be too wasteful to leave such a force idle.

Wang Hao nodded. "Wife is right. We do need to find something to do. Although the family's territory is sufficient, with development, there will eventually be a day when it is not enough."

As the family's foundation increases and talents continue to emerge, the family's high-level power is beginning to explode.

The Wang family's total population is not too large, and it occupies vast territory. It can be said that the land is vast and the population is sparse.

This is indeed the case for low-level clansmen. In the Wang family's territory, a large number of fourth-level and lower spiritual veins are idle, and even leasing them to affiliated forces for free cannot find so many people for a while.

However, the number of Grand Ascension cultivators that an eighth-level spiritual vein can bear is limited. As Ji Xiaotang and others grow to the middle stage of Grand Ascension, and Wang Xianyi and other new generation clansmen break through to the Grand Ascension stage, the Wang family's existing eighth-level spiritual veins are already somewhat crowded.

Wang Hao's gaze quickly turned to the Xuan Guang Continent near the Xuan Ling Continent. This place was originally controlled by the Horned Chi clan's affiliated forces. After the war ended, Wang Hao had already seized several important strongholds on the Xuan Guang Continent according to Immortal Rong's orders.

In theory, the Xuan Guang Continent is the war indemnity that the Five Clans Alliance compensated to the Heavenly Xuan Alliance.

It's just that Wang Hao didn't want to provoke incidents again before, and didn't send a large number of people to the Xuan Guang Continent.

Many races also live on the Xuan Guang Continent, but in the previous war, the cultivators of the Xuan Guang Continent were used as cannon fodder by the Five Clans Alliance, suffering heavy casualties. At least 50% of the high-level power was lost.

Moreover, ready-made benefits are originally compensation for them. Why not take advantage of it?

"There are also several powerful races in the Xuan Guang Continent, such as the Tall Body race and the Fine Grain race, which can be compared to the Flying Spirit race. I think we still need to be more cautious," Lin Youwei said with some worry. Although the Wang family is strong, its focus is on the Demon City, and the power that can be dispatched is ultimately limited.

"Their losses are not small, and they are no longer comparable to the Flying Spirit race. Moreover, the Horned Chi clan has abandoned them. Their best choice is to surrender. It won't be that difficult to fight!"

Wang Hao didn't intend to start a killing spree. Ideally, it would be best if the cultivators of the Xuan Guang Continent voluntarily gave up part of their territory, and everyone could reduce conflicts and be happy.

In addition to coercion, there can also be enticement.

The Human Race can now be considered a super race. The Xuan Guang Continent is so close to the Human Race. The best choice is naturally to join the Human Race. As long as Wang Hao extends an olive branch, I believe many races will be tempted.

"Should we notify Daoist Cang Yue and the others? Are we the only ones sending troops?" Chu Xun asked another key question.

Wang Hao pondered slightly and said, "Eating alone is not a good habit. This time, we must not only notify the other forces of the Human Race, but also notify the Flying Spirit Race and the Charm Race. They are closer to the Xuan Guang Continent and can provide many conveniences."

As for the other small races, Wang Hao skipped them. He couldn't be so selfless as to bring everyone to eat meat.
