Heritage Law.
As one of the traditional way elves use to cultivate and gain stronger advantages in battle or war, the Ancient Elves tribe create this Heritage Laws to compete for a position within the Dao of Universe.
Divided into 6 different Main Armament, the Heritage Laws is practicable by all the members of elves tribe, as long they had the ritual rites conducted on their body. The Ritual Rites came in the form of Mural Tattoos, attached in the skin on each elf that completed the rites.
First Basic Armament, is the Physical Law Armament. They came in many forms such as Fist Armament, the most basic among all, to Bow Armament, Spear Armament or the rarer one, such as the Mental Armament, and True Sight Armament.
The second Basic Armament is the Magical Law Armament. Came in form of Essence energy conversion, the Armament allows the user to convert the Essence energy around them into a different form, and apply them in many different usages. Usually, this form of Armament came in the form of Yang Essence Armament, Yang Lighting Armament, or the rarer Yin Yang Cloud Armament.
The third Basic Armament is the Spiritual Law Armament. Less variant is discovered within this armament due to the lack of enlightenment in this Law, but few major character within the Elven Tribe possess this Law in the form of Grand Commander Spirit Armament, or the Master Tamer Armament, where they possess special ability to control other elves spirit or demonic beast.
The fourth Basic Armament is the Life Wheel Armament. Life Wheel Armament came in 4 different type of Armament, which is the Blood Life Armament, Physical Life Armament, Essence Life Armament, and the Mind Life Armament. The Blood stands for Cultivation, Physical for the Mortal Body, Essence for the Nature Absorption, and the Mind for Spiritual Strength. The deeper one Armament is trained and enhanced, the better the elf will be able to perform in any condition.
The Fifth Basic Armament is the Material Armament. Through Condensing the essence and anything in nature, the elves have the privilege to use the support from nature to materialize a different kind of ingredients to recreate anything to assist themselves. A few basic type of usage includes Arrow Making, Armours, Weapons, and certain kind of tools. However, this does not mean the material formed will be sturdier or better use than item created specifically by the blacksmith from dwarves, goblins or humans.
The last Basic Armament is an Ability Armament. Abilities, or more likely to be known as techniques or arts, is categorized as the last and also the one with most variants within. Came either born with it or learned along the way to ascension, the elves depend on this armament to further enhance their ability, especially during war.
Overall, instead of being strictly divided, thought and inherited to each generation like how human treated their Martial arts, the elves instead allows all members who succeed in the ritual rites are allowed to learn and practice any Armament as they like. Although some secrets and special Armament would require one to reach a certain level and honor, the elves still pretty open to all in term of inheritance of Heritage Laws.
Finish understanding vaguely on the differences and specialty of the Heritage Laws, Altima waste no time, but make a hasty return to his camp. Along the way, he notices plenty of print marks, as well territorial indication along the trees within the forest. Seeing all these markings, Altima roughly guess that the elves village or territories are nearby their camping location.
As he returns, the Li sisters finally wished to converse with Altima. With the intention of surrendering and willing to serve Altima as his maid or whatsoever he demands. For lady such as the two Li sisters, following a dependable character and thoroughly serve him, would unintentionally benefit their clan. Never to mention, The Li clan is currently on their edge of destruction.
The ruthlessness of time is an unavoidable issue for every clan. Although they flourish in the previous few generation, but if their future generation is lacking with resources, martial arts, and inheritance, very quickly they will be swallow by the passage of time. For a clan to continue to flourish, a strong alliance is required, unfortunately, Li Clan doesn’t have such far-sighted patriarch to lead the clan, and thus the clan slowly walking to its downfall.
For Altima, having an additional servant doesn’t bring him any benefits.
Altima personally nurtures a special cultivation farm. Within the farm, although it is not a large number, but currently Altima is head of a total of 2,000 Heads of Goblins, 1,500 heads of Goblin Berserkers, as well as a total of 3,000 Heads of Lowest-Grade Ancient Elves. With the 500 female elves is pregnant at the moment, Altima could soon expect his total elves will increase into 3,500 in the next 6 month.

"What is the specialty of you sisters ?"
Altima asks coldly, bearing slight intention to reject the sisters.
"I am good in…"
Li Wen tried to answer Altima's question first but hesitates as she understands that she got no specialty at all.
"We sisters are still virgin.. We can warm your bed and be your maid if you wish."
Li Xin answered for both of them instead.
"Arrogant and overestimate yourself. Our lord is an Earl under the Wu Di Royal Faction, even the city lord daughter and alliance core member are queuing up to let our earl choose as the marriage partner."
Said Ganesha. If one look clearly on Ganesha, she is the only female captain in Soul Practitioner Tier. Standing alongside with Altima for the longest time, one can easily read how attached she is towards her Earl.
With strength and essence in the Soul Tier, Ganesha possesses an exquisite aura which causes people who look on her smitten easily into a daze. Being said to be the prettiest female captain among the Female members of the Royal Faction, Ganesha chooses to stand alongside with Altima instead of behaving like a girl waiting for her marriage.
"Ah!"
Li Xin suddenly shouted as she remembered something.
"Earl, I know what is we sisters specialty is."
Li Xin quickly appeals for another chance.
"Said it, make sure it's helpful to me, instead of treating me like the usual womanizer you see on the roadside."
Altima gave them another chance.
"We from Li Clan are naturally born archers. Our archery skills are amazing to the state where we could easily score a bullseye without depending on any special technique or further training in archery."
Li Xin quickly describes their specialty.
"How far can you shot accurately ?"
Ganesha questions their capability.
Ganesha Cenia Ignizem. A special household where the members of the family are proud of their talents and capability in Martial Arts, Archery and strategy Skills. Comparable to the legend of Sun Tzu in Altima's previous life, The Ignizem Household produce a countless number of talents, few remarkable one would be the current General under Yang Wu Di personally, General Howard Warlock Ignizem, or the retired Quadruple Swordmaster Cecil Demon Ignizem.
Even the current Royal Guards, is lead by Ganesha's two oldest brother, the Southern Tyrant of Archery Seyren Cenia Ignizem, and the Southern Tyrant of Wolf Fang Mace Sura Cenia Ignizem. Except for Ganesha whom still in the Soul Tier, almost all of her brothers and other named title bearer already reach the strength of a King Practitioner of Zen Tier.
Especially for the Oldest brother Seyren, he had been well known as the King among archers due to his capability to accurately hit his target as far as 600 Metres distance. Be in moving, still, heavily armored, protected with magic, none of them could escape from having the life taken away after being aimed to death by Seyren.
"We can accurately hit the target as far as 500 meters, be it moving, still or armored."
Li Wen answered. Among the two sisters, Li Wen archery possesses even better strength, due to her talent in physics, while Li Xin is faster in continuous firing.
Without wasting a single second, Altima allows the sisters to perform their skills. Totally up to his expectation, the sisters manage to give Ganesha a shock when they casually aim at 500 meters distance bullseye and hit accurately on targets.
"You are taken, from now on, you will be the archers under Captain Ganesha's command."
Altima ordered, and two sets of uniform are passed to them by the supplier's troops, getting them ready for battle.
"Thank you, Earl, Thank you!"
The sisters happily receive their uniform and followed Ganesha to her troop's section as she bid farewell to Altima. Only she herself know her disappointment, as she excuses herself with a sour yet unhappy face.
"This Ganesha, don’t she know that my age is younger than her by at least 5 years ?
Altima, who is only 12 this year, felt like a joke as he sees how infatuated Ganesha is towards him, but unfortunately, Altima had been a girl before his incarnation, and a bisexual on top of that due to her risky and complicated profession. Although falling in love is never easy, but for a person with a firm resolution such as himself, love is an only distraction to his cultivation at the moment.
Unknowingly to them, the elves actually have some scouts running patrols around their village. Almost immediately, the camp is thoroughly exposed to the elves who excel in Stealth Armament, Sight Armament, and Sign of Life Reading Armament. Moments later, a large number of elves starting to appear within the camps perimeter, but maintain hidden from the guards and patrols point of view.
(This human group is pretty big, I'm sure they have good amount of food we can steal and bring back to village.)
One of the Elf speaks quietly.
(Yes, we should be able to steal a lot of food from them, see the foods they arrange beside the dining table ?)
Another elf spoken, pointing on the dining table where the troops keep stacking more and more Lan Shen Dalu's special fruits and nature plantation produces.
(Only having 10,000 members, and yet they dare to bring such number of foods with them, we should steal all of it and let them return empty handed!)
The elves prepared themselves, and ready to charge as they found an opening.
But.
10,000 Members ?
Are the elves sure on the numbers of human camped around that area ?
Unknowingly to the elves, Altima himself too had a plan.
