Chapter 956: Elder Council enforcers

It was indeed a top-tier banquet. Even the attendants serving the meal were powerhouses of the Azure Spirit-Light level.

"Warriors of my Demonic Dragon Legion, welcome! Although this battle happened suddenly, it was worthwhile for us to discover an excellent force like the Glory Squad for the Demonic Dragon Legion."

The voice was deep and resonant; its source was unseen, yet the sound waves it emitted swept through the entire hall.

Undoubtedly, the appearance of such sound waves immediately drew a serious response from Xu Yang's Glory Squad.

"This person is very powerful! The sound waves are condensed and don't dissipate. There's an eighty percent chance this person's strength has already reached the Blue Peak."

Gugglar lowered his voice and slowly spoke, which naturally brought a significant shock to Xu Yang and the others.

The Blue Spirit Energy Peak level meant this person possessed formidable combat power comparable to Little Gorilla's Ancient Serpent Emperor level.

Of course, while Little Gorilla was also at the Blue Peak, his practical combat ability was definitely far superior to human cultivators of the same level.

As the sound waves slowly subsided, several figures materialized without warning in the center of the spacious pagoda hall.

All of these individuals, without exception, shimmered with blue spiritual light. Two of them were the peak interceptors who had just spoken.

These two were the Chief Enforcement Elders, responsible for the daily management, among the seven current members of the Elder Council.

"Boss, these two are Chief Elders. They are responsible for the operations and daily affairs of the forces under the Demonic Dragon Legion, but they are not necessarily the strongest individuals within the entire Legion. The other five truly powerful Elder Council members usually do not show themselves."

Gugglar secretly transmitted common knowledge about the Demonic Dragon Legion's core leadership into Xu Yang's soul world via spiritual energy. This quickly gave Xu Yang a comprehensive understanding of the Legion's core situation.

Furthermore, with Gugglar present, even the names of the Elder Council's enforcement elders and details about their ancestral lineage for eighteen generations were meticulously transmitted to Xu Yang via spiritual energy.

As the information about these individuals became exceptionally clear in his mind, Xu Yang couldn't help but feel a secret surge of alarm.

He genuinely hadn't expected Gugglar's information-gathering abilities to surpass his initial assessment of the man's limits.

The value this person possessed was far greater than simply saving the team a few rounds of drinks.

"Ah, it's Chief Enforcement Elder Tandin! I've long heard of your esteemed reputation, which precedes you like thunder. Yet, seeing you today, your presence is rather ordinary."

Everyone had expected Xu Yang's opening remarks to be polite pleasantries. However, when they heard his last few words, they almost burst out laughing.

Not a single one of the seven members of the Glory Squad was an easy target.

Everyone knew that Captain Xu Yang was simply using this method to openly mock the other party's unrestrained words.

After all, everyone was well aware of the other party's intentions in this exchange, so there was no need to save them face.

However, Enforcement Elder Tandin was clearly a profoundly cunning individual. Even upon hearing Xu Yang's mockery, he did not immediately show anger, maintaining a smiling expression.

"You truly are quite humorous, sir. But you are correct, I don't have many other virtues, but one thing cannot be overlooked: I value talent greatly! No powerful new-generation squad under the Demonic Dragon Legion can escape my intelligence network. This time, however, the Glory Squad's name was overlooked by my intelligence network, which surprised me the most. Seeing the demeanor of the Glory Squad members today, I, an old man, truly feel humbled."

"Whoa, this guy's got something. You just publicly embarrassed him, boss, and not only did he not get angry, but he managed to flatter you right back. That's an interesting move!"

Prances transmitted a mental message to the team. Everyone communicated telepathically, completely unnoticed by others.

"Heh, what does it matter how cunning he is? These are just so-called 'courtesy before force' tactics. The moment we refuse to join the Demonic Dragon Legion's Elder Council arrangement, they will surely reveal their true intentions!"

Lister's voice resonated in the minds of the team members, and at that very moment, the banquet officially began.

Led by the two Chief Enforcement Elders, more than half of the dozen or so attendees were from the Demonic Dragon Seven Tribulations, occupying the top three positions in the leading squads of the Seven Tribulations.

"Everyone qualified to attend this banquet today is among the finest warriors of our Demonic Dragon Legion. We are gathered here to foster further communication and camaraderie, enabling you to better contribute your strength to the entire Demonic Dragon Legion and lead us all to greater heights! Everyone, please take your seats!"

At the Enforcement Elder's command, the top figures from various squads took their seats. Regardless of the seating arrangement, Xu Yang and the seven members of the Glory Squad were undoubtedly the main protagonists of this banquet; no one could overshadow their brilliance.

However, soon after everyone took their seats, an increasing number of top figures from other squads of the Seven Tribulations began attempting to exert pressure on the Glory Squad.

"I heard that in this border battle, another squad from the Demonic Dragon Seven Tribulations was completely annihilated. Yet, your rookie Glory Squad, despite a vast disparity in strength, managed to repel the formidable forces of the Imperial Soul Squad! I'd like to hear: what exactly did you experience in that battle? Would you mind sharing your battlefield experience with us so we can learn? After all, comebacks in such overwhelmingly disadvantaged situations, where the few defeat the many, are quite rare."

One individual in a blue battle robe calmly spoke, becoming the first to attempt to pressure Xu Yang's Glory Squad.

Before Xu Yang could speak, Gugglar rubbed his ample belly and spoke with a smile.

"Sir Xieweis, you may not know, but the reason we easily won this battle was entirely because the Demonic Dragon Seven Tribulations squad dominated the battlefield. The vast majority of combat on the main battlefield was carried out by their junior forces. Our Sal City-State's defensive strength is very weak. Without the support forces fighting bravely, we absolutely could not have achieved victory so easily."

Gugglar skillfully answered everyone's doubts and perfectly dodged questions about the specific combat process.
