Chapter 2050 Black Panther Cavalry

Ye Bufan led the Lingxiao Academy group to the residence arranged by the City Lord's Mansion. As soon as they entered, Zhai Lingxiu rushed in from outside.

He smiled slightly, "Young Miss Zhai, is there something urgent?"

Zhai Lingxiu turned around, closed the door, and then whispered, "Dr. Ye, Prince Anshun has tricked you."

Although Song Jian was a Prince of the Tianfeng Empire, Ye Bufan had previously cured her father and now saved both their lives, so Zhai Lingxiu still favored him.

Ye Bufan said, "What do you mean?"

Zhai Lingxiu eagerly said, "You haven't fought against the barbarians, so you don't know how their camps are arranged.

It's true that the north side is the rear, but that's also where their provisions are, and the defenses are extremely tight, making it much harder to attack than the other directions."

Ye Bufan nodded, "It's fine. Anyway, we don't expect to completely conquer the Barbarian King's camp. We just need to kill a few barbarian soldiers."

"It's not like that. It's not as simple as you think."

Zhai Lingxiu looked anxious, "Dr. Ye, have you heard of the Black Panther Cavalry?"

"No, I haven't."

Ye Bufan shook his head. He had only recently arrived on Kunlun Continent and had just heard of barbarians for the first time, let alone any Black Panther Cavalry.

"Are they very powerful?"

Zhai Lingxiu said, "That's right. The Black Panther Cavalry is the most powerful force under the Qingye Barbarian King."

Ye Bufan said, "Wasn't it said that the most powerful was the Rampage Legion?"

"That's different," Zhai Lingxiu explained, "The Rampage Legion is a large army, with a total of thirty thousand barbarian soldiers, while the Black Panther Cavalry only has one hundred men, but their combat power is not to be underestimated at all."

Hearing her say that, Ye Bufan became interested.

"Tell me, how powerful are they?"

"The Black Panther Cavalry, as the name suggests, are barbarian soldiers whose mounts are Fifth-Tier Yao Beast Black Cloud Leopards. These creatures are fierce, fast, and have strong defensive capabilities. Any one of them is comparable to a human Soul Transformation Stage expert.

And the barbarian soldiers of the Black Panther Cavalry are also extremely powerful, all having reached the level of a Second-Tier Barbarian General.

Calculate, how powerful would such a cavalry unit be once deployed?"

"They are indeed very powerful."

Ye Bufan nodded, then asked, "If that's the case, why didn't the Qingye Barbarian King deploy them in previous battles?"

"I'm not entirely sure about that either, but there are a few basic guesses.

Zhai Lingxiu explained, "The main role of cavalry is on plains. Even if the Black Panther Cavalry is powerful, attacking cities and occupying territory is not their strong suit.

Also, this force is the Qingye Barbarian King's treasure. Under normal circumstances, he cannot afford any losses, and they will not be used unless absolutely necessary.

As a final trump card, the Black Panther Cavalry is rarely used and usually stays with the provisions.

You also know the importance of military provisions to an army, so the Black Panther Cavalry has always been guarding the provisions in the barbarian rear.

Prince Anshun telling you to attack from the north was originally a trap. Facing the Black Panther Cavalry, anyone would have a slim chance of survival."

She spoke very urgently, but Ye Bufan's expression remained calm after listening, with a faint smile still on his face.

"Young Miss Zhai, thank you for your kindness. We understand.

But this New Talent Ranking Tournament is very important to our Lingxiao Academy. Since things have been decided, they cannot be changed, so we cannot give up on this competition."

"But…"

She still wanted to say something, but Ye Bufan said cheerfully, "Don't worry. Haven't you understood my character by now? No matter what, I won't suffer a loss."

Zhai Lingxiu thought about it and realized it was true; Ye Bufan had never suffered a loss.

"Alright then, you must be extra careful. As soon as the Black Panther Cavalry appears, retreat immediately."

After repeated warnings, she hastily withdrew.

In another room, the group led by Song Jian gathered again.

Song Yaoji said with worry, "Father, with the power of Ye Bufan's hidden weapons, I'm afraid he will still have the most merit points this time."

"How is that possible?"

Song Jian revealed a cold, sinister smile, "I wonder if you've heard of the Black Panther Cavalry? That's a hundred-man cavalry unit composed of Fifth-Tier Yao Beasts and Second-Tier Demon Generals. Their combat power is absolutely astonishing, the strongest fighting force under the Qingye Barbarian King."

Song Yaoji asked in surprise, "Father, do you mean that the Black Panther Cavalry is on the north side?"

"That's right. Otherwise, why would I want Ye Bufan to attack that direction?"

Song Jian said, "Even if Ye Bufan's hidden weapons are powerful, they cannot break through the Black Panther Cavalry's defense, so he can only wait for death!"

Feng Tianxiang said worriedly, "Prince, that Ye is very cunning. He has escaped danger many times. It might not be so easy to kill him."

Song Jian sneered, "A battlefield is different from Cultivators fighting. The Black Panther Cavalry is an absolute harbinger of death.

Even if Ye Bufan doesn't die, can his subordinates save their lives?

As long as one dies, if they can't gather six people, I can still kick them out."

Hearing him say this, Fang Huayu immediately gave a thumbs up, "Prince, what a brilliant plan!"

Song Jian said proudly, "Go back and prepare well. Tonight is our decisive moment."

As night fell, the entire Tianlang City was plunged into darkness.

The Barbarian King's camp, with a total of three hundred thousand people, stretched for dozens of miles, looking like a giant beast lurking in the darkness.

As time passed, the surroundings became silent, and the Barbarian King's camp also seemed to fall into slumber.

At midnight, a sudden cannon blast pierced the night sky, followed by shouts of battle from all directions.

Not far from the Barbarian King's camp, countless torches instantly lit up. Soldiers of the Tianfeng Empire wielded their weapons and surged forward like a tide.

At the same time, several teams participating in the New Talent Ranking Tournament also launched attacks from the remaining three directions.

Ye Bufan stood on the north side of the large camp, looking at the endless military camp before him, truly feeling the desolation of the ancient battlefield.

As soon as the cannon fired, he immediately led the Lingxiao Academy group towards the camp gate.

Soon, the few barbarian soldiers guarding the gate discovered them and immediately started yelling gibberish, but unfortunately, they couldn't understand anything they were saying.

Before they could finish speaking, Jiang Fangzhou's long saber had already swept through, and the heads of several barbarian soldiers immediately flew high into the air.

After the previous bloody battle at the city wall, his psychological quality and combat experience were much stronger than before.

Ye Bufan glanced at the merit token in his hand. A faint fluctuation of magical power emanated from it, and then several numbers changed continuously, finally settling on an eight.

It seemed this thing was quite useful. The merit points obtained from Jiang Fangzhou's recent strike, which killed several barbarian soldiers, was eight.

At the same time, Hu Yaoyao, Lu Xueman, and others also launched attacks on the nearby gate, cutting down dozens of barbarian soldiers in the blink of an eye.

Although their numbers were not large, they possessed an unstoppable Aura, directly charging into the North Gate.

Feeling the attack, the barbarian soldiers inside the city immediately swarmed out, rushing towards them.
