Space: (Gold: 50,000 taels, Silver: 600,000 taels, Copper coins: 900,000 coins, Thousand-year Ginseng: 6 roots, Thousand-year Lingzhi: 13 pieces, Five-hundred-year Fallopia Multiflora: 10 roots, Polygonatum...)
His Kill Points were increasing. Originally, he had used over 2,000 Kill Points to elevate Wild Bull Strength to Great Perfection and to deduce the Flood Dragon Devouring Technique.
Now, he had only about 11,000 Kill Points left.
But as the archers on the city wall continued to shoot down the charging Barbarian soldiers, his Kill Points kept increasing: +1, +1, +1...
They kept growing.
It seemed that whenever his soldiers killed a Barbarian soldier, he would gain one Kill Point.
This was a very welcome change.
Could this be a hidden benefit of the System's Golden Finger upgrading to T1?
As long as his subordinates killed enemies, he would also gain Kill Points?!
Even if it was just one Kill Point, it could accumulate over time.
If each of his 9,000 soldiers killed one enemy, he would gain 9,000 Kill Points.
In this way, Oliver's Kill Points would increase rapidly.
Watching the golden Light Screen where the Kill Points kept increasing, Oliver was overjoyed.
"General Sheng, what are you thinking about that's making you so happy?" Magistrate Chen, standing nearby, couldn't help but ask when he saw Oliver's joyful smile.
"Huh, what did you say?" Oliver snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Magistrate Chen.
"The Barbarian army is attacking the city, General Sheng. Why are you so happy? Did you think of something funny?" Magistrate Chen looked at Oliver, speechless.
Shouldn't he be more serious when the Barbarian army is attacking the city?

This guy was smiling so brightly, anyone who didn't know might think he was getting married.
"Can't I be happy about something? Can't I be happy about earning Military Merit after repelling the Barbarian army?" Oliver rolled his eyes at Magistrate Chen.
The vanguard of the Barbarian army had reached the city wall and began setting up siege ladders and ropes to climb the wall.
They carried battering rams to smash the city gates.
Seeing the soldiers starting to climb the wall, the Barbarian vanguard commander ordered a ceasefire.
He dispatched cavalry to roam and shoot below the city wall, covering the soldiers climbing the wall.
"Prepare to defend!" Xiao Chuyi shouted.
As soon as the Barbarian army's arrow rain stopped, Xiao Chuyi ordered her soldiers to form a defensive formation.
Her soldiers immediately formed the Mandarin Duck Formation, ready to defend and kill on the city wall.
The Barbarian soldiers found it strange that the defending soldiers neither poured boiled feces nor threw stones and logs.
Were the Great Wei defenders planning to give up resistance?
They couldn't figure it out and didn't care. They only knew that climbing the city wall meant merit, killing enemy soldiers meant merit, and occupying the city wall meant great merit.
Opening the city gates would directly earn them nobility through Military Merit.
All the attacking soldiers climbed desperately.
When the first Barbarian soldier poked his head up and saw the defenders on the city wall, a long spear pierced his throat.
He couldn't even scream before the spear was withdrawn, and he fell, crushing the soldiers climbing below him.
And Oliver gained another Kill Point.
In the Mandarin Duck Formation, the front two shield-bearers held sabers, the next two soldiers held wolf-forks to disrupt vision, and the two soldiers behind them held long spears to kill.
The corporal commanded from the center, and four soldiers with sabers, shields, and long spears waited to fill in.
Currently, the lowest cultivation level among Oliver's soldiers was late-stage Martial Disciple. They easily handled the Barbarian army's assault.
They allowed the Barbarian soldiers to keep climbing, but without exception, they were all speared to death by the defenders.
In less than half an hour, over a thousand Barbarian soldiers had died, and a pile of corpses had formed at the foot of the city wall.
Oliver stood on the tower overseeing the battle and gained over a thousand Kill Points.
Now, as a military commander, he needed to oversee the overall situation and couldn't just grab a saber and fight on the wall like a common soldier.
Using military formations to defend, his soldiers only suffered some injuries. The reserves quickly replaced the injured soldiers, who then took healing pills.
After killing over a thousand enemies, Oliver's subordinates had no casualties. This was the advantage of having strong soldiers; they could easily keep the enemy outside the city wall.
An hour later, less than a thousand of the three thousand vanguard soldiers remained.
In the Barbarian army's central camp, General Yu Han of the Xianyou Tribe frowned slightly as he looked at the defenders on the city wall.
This garrison seemed quite strong.
"Who is the commander of the River West County garrison? Their soldiers are formidable."
"Uncle, the commander is the Great Wei Cavalry General, named Oliver Sheng. He has 5,000 soldiers, but according to the scouts, he actually has 9,000 soldiers," Kaden Yu said resentfully.
This time, the army was not led by him, the prince, but by his uncle, his father's brother, General Yu Han of the Xianyou Tribe, who was at the mid-stage Grandmaster realm.
"Nine thousand men, not many, but these defending soldiers seem to be elite." Yu Han said.
With his strength, he could see that the soldiers on the city wall were all late-stage Martial Disciples, which was a terrifying ratio.
His most elite cavalry unit barely reached the late-stage Martial Disciple level.
Looking at the defending commander on the wall, his aura seemed to fluctuate between mid and late-stage Innate, which was quite strange.
"Send another 5,000 soldiers to attack the city. Yu Fei, go kill the enemy commander. I want to sleep in the city tonight," Yu Han ordered immediately.
He wouldn't slowly battle the defending soldiers; he wanted to crush the River West County garrison in one decisive blow.
As an experienced commander, he wouldn't make the same foolish mistake as his nephew, Kaden Yu.
"Yes, General!" Yu Fei stepped forward and led 5,000 soldiers to attack.
"General, the Barbarian army is intensifying their attack and has sent a powerful Innate Martial Artist to lead the charge," Cameron Guo said, looking at the 5,000-strong army charging from outside the city with a serious expression.
Yu Fei's aura was not concealed at all, and the pressure of an Innate Great Perfection realm was felt by the defenders on the wall.
Oliver looked at the attacking Barbarian Innate Great Perfection expert, clearly targeting him.
The Barbarian army's commander was not one to dawdle; he wanted to take River West County in one fell swoop.
Yu Fei leaped up and flew onto the city wall, ready to start a massacre.
Oliver couldn't let him slaughter the defending soldiers. Before Yu Fei could act, Oliver leaped from the tower to the wall and punched at Yu Fei.
Yu Fei quickly dodged and looked at Oliver, laughing.
"Hahaha, so you're the defending commander. I thought you'd hide in the back. Die, this River West County belongs to the Xianyou Tribe now." Yu Fei drew his saber and slashed at Oliver.
He spoke in the Great Wei language, which Oliver understood. Seeing an Innate Great Perfection expert being so arrogant in front of him, Oliver couldn't hold back and punched with full force.
"Clang!"
Yu Fei's saber shattered under Oliver's punch, and the terrifying force of the punch hit him.
He couldn't react at all. He thought he was fighting a mid-stage Innate Great Wei commander, easy to kill.
But the opponent turned into a raging dragon, and the force of the punch made his heart tremble, unable to resist.
"Boom!"
The punch landed on Yu Fei, and the immense force blew him apart, blood raining down.
On the tower, Cameron Guo, Wesley Hu, Felix Wu, Zane Wang, and others were all dumbfounded.
They watched as their general punched an Innate Great Perfection expert to pieces.
That was an Innate Great Perfection expert.
Xiao Chuyi, seeing this, was also shocked. What did she just see?
Oliver Sheng, at mid-stage Innate, punched an Innate Great Perfection expert to death?!
Was she seeing things?
