The Legendary Man novel Chapter 1095

Aidan’s voice echoed in every Remdik cultivator’s ears.

They knitted their brows, and a hint of fear flickered in their eyes.

According to the war rules set by Remdik, once someone deployed a formation to summon the Divine Realm cultivators, all the commanders involved in the battle would be brought before a military court.

After all, despite being a country with strong military power, they would not be able to gather too many Divine Realm cultivators even if they took all the Remdikian cultivators into account.

Five hundred years ago, an emperor developed a portable portal formation to prevent excessive casualties among their soldiers.

The formation was developed so that the Remdikian soldiers could activate the array in critical situations, allowing the Remdikian Divine Realm cultivators to be teleported to the battlefield and turn the tide.

Initially, this method boosted the morale of the Remdikian soldiers.

After all, having the Divine Realm cultivators in their midst gave them confidence and raised their spirits.

Furthermore, the portal formation had reversed unfavorable situations for the Remdikian soldiers and even led them to victories. It became a remarkable and strategic asset for its military.

However, as time passed, the Remdik Emperor began to notice certain anomalies or concerns with this approach.

Since they relied on the Divine Realm cultivators as their backup, the combat proficiency of the Remdikian soldiers, from the lowest ranks to the commanding officers, had gradually declined. They no longer approached warfare with the same level of seriousness and commitment.

That outcome was not unexpected. When everyone knew they could easily summon the Divine Realm cultivators, there would be a tendency for them to become complacent and unwilling to give their all in battle.

After all, they could simply summon the Divine Realm cultivators whenever they faced danger, and the opposing forces would be easily defeated once the reinforcement arrived.

With the intervention of Divine Realm cultivators, even the low-rank soldiers began to feel that fighting to the death was pointless.

Such thoughts ultimately contributed to the decline of the Remdikian soldiers.

During those years, the Remdikian Divine Realm cultivators were worked to exhaustion.

At times, they would have just returned home after a battle, only to be called to the battlefield again when the formation lit up.

Some three hundred years ago, the Jetroinian troops invading Remdik from the northeast even set a trap for them because they were well acquainted with the latter’s combat style, killing two of the Remdikian Divine Realm cultivators.

At that point, the tsar finally acknowledged the problem of being overly dependent on those cultivators. Hence, he issued a decree to restrict the use of the portal formation.

Once the portal formation was activated, all the commanding officers involved in the battle would face the harshest punishment—death.

This served as a warning to those commanding officers and made them understand the consequences of not giving their utmost in battle.

After the enactment of this decree, the Divine Realm cultivators under the tsar’s rule could finally live peacefully.

Of course, there were instances where the summoning formation was used again.

Each time the formation was activated, Remdik’s Intelligence Bureau would gather all the details of the battle and submit them to the military court’s simulation department to run an analysis.

If the results indicated that the situation did not warrant the summoning of Divine Realm cultivators, all the high-ranking commanding officers throughout the entire army would face execution.

On the other hand, if the summoning of Divine Realm cultivators proved effective in mitigating losses during a crucial situation, the entire high-ranking command would be duly rewarded.

At that point, Avery and the others were certain that they would become casualties in the power struggle between the tsar and the Ivanov family should they lose in the battle.

If they were to summon Ivanov to the battle, they might all be sentenced to death.

That was why Aidan and the others hesitated.

Avery could not pull himself away as he was being held back by Joshua.
