After more than an hour, seeing the city's outline in the distance, the War Soul Squad members finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Captain, ahead, that's Anshan City, right?" someone asked.

"Yes."

Qin Jin nodded, looking ahead, feeling somewhat anxious.

Along the way, they had encountered many dangers and were almost surrounded by Fierce Beasts. Fortunately, each person had Instant Teleportation Items, allowing them to escape without harm.

However, once inside Anshan City, the situation would be different.

No matter how many Fierce Beasts attacked, they would have to fight to the end, unless Anshan City fell or Chairman Li abandoned them, they couldn't expect to escape unscathed.

"Finally here, it wasn't easy." someone sighed.

"Yeah, traveling over a thousand kilometers in two hours. Once we enter the city, I'm definitely going to take a good bath and have a big meal." the green-haired woman laughed.

"Wishful thinking." the man next to her snorted, "Once we enter the city, we must first find Chairman Li. If he assigns us tasks immediately, we might not even have time to rest, let alone take a bath."

"Really? So heartless?"

"Alright."

Qin Jin glanced at them helplessly.

These guys hadn't even realized what they were about to face.

"Let's go, into the city."

After he spoke, he moved forward first.

The others followed quickly, and as they walked, they noticed the ground was covered with craters. With their experience, they recognized these were shell craters, indicating a recent fierce battle here.

Besides the craters, there were various footprints, some a few dozen centimeters, some one or two meters, and some several meters long, extending from behind them to the front, densely scattered.

"It seems a Beast Tide did indeed erupt here." someone in the team took a deep breath, "Not small in scale, at least over a hundred thousand."

"Over a hundred thousand. Looks like Chairman Li wasn't lying, and judging by these footprints, three thousand Elite-level Fierce Beasts should be about right."

"Look, such a large-scale Beast Tide seems to have only reached the city walls but didn't breach them, as there are no signs of damage on the walls."

"So, twenty thousand Fierce Beasts couldn't even touch the walls and were repelled?"

Everyone showed a look of surprise.

They had thought that although Anshan City blocked the first wave of the Beast Tide, it must have suffered significant losses. But from the looks of it, the city was completely unharmed.

A question emerged in their minds.

How did Chairman Li and his companions manage to achieve this?

The group arrived at a ruined area.

It was clear that this was once a gathering place, but due to the Beast Tide, it was now in ruins.

In the middle of the ruins, a few paths had been cleared leading to the city gate.

The group reached the city gate, and several guards cautiously approached, "Excuse me, which one of you is Mr. Qin Jin?"

"I am."

Qin Jin responded.

"Mr. Qin, Chairman Li instructed me to tell you, upon entering the city, go directly to the Awakened Association."

"Alright."

Qin Jin nodded.

"Please follow me."

The guard made a gesture of invitation and then moved forward.

Qin Jin and his group followed behind, observing the small city.

Indeed, the initial impression of Anshan City was quite good, orderly and well-organized.

"Friend, has Anshan City recently encountered a Beast Tide attack?"

Qin Jin asked with a smile.

"Yes."

The leading guard sighed, "I don't know how, but the Beast Tide suddenly erupted. We had no time to prepare. Fortunately, we have Chairman Li, who obliterated the tens of thousands of Fierce Beasts attacking Anshan City."

He spoke with pride in his voice.

"Tens of thousands? Wasn't it said to be more than twenty thousand?" the green-haired woman muttered.

"Heh, yes, it was more than twenty thousand, but for us, it felt like a lot. From the city walls, it looked like a dark sea."

"So how did your Chairman Li manage it?" the red-haired woman asked the most concerned question.

The others pricked their ears, listening attentively.

"It was amazing."

The guard licked his lips, showing admiration, "When the Beast Tide reached the city walls, about to storm in, Chairman Li stood alone on the wall and summoned thousands of Flying Swords in one go, slaughtering the Fierce Beasts below mercilessly."

"What? Flying Swords?"

"Summoned thousands of Flying Swords in one go?"

The group was stunned.

"I'm not lying."

The guard quickly explained, "He really summoned thousands of Flying Swords at once, well, maybe summoned twice more afterwards, but that's beside the point. The point is, the swords seemed to have minds of their own, each sword slashing several beasts effortlessly.

Even the Elite-level Fierce Beasts were killed with one sword slash by Chairman Li's Flying Swords. It was too shocking, to be honest. We privately call Chairman Li 'Sword Immortal.' Of course, I'm only telling you this, don't mention it to the chairman when you meet him."

Qin Jin and his group exchanged glances, bewildered.

What on earth?

Wasn't Chairman Li an Awakener?

His awakened Superpower was supposed to be speed enhancement, right?

This also explained why they were left far behind on the way.
