Chapter 718: The Official Name of the Great Allied Army

After his discussion with Rolferth, Alaric summoned all the high-level executives of the great allied army.

"Everyone, our situation is more complicated than we have..." He didn’t hide things from them. He told them about the information he received from the Elderman.

Everyone wore solemn faces when they learned the overall story.

"Lord Alaric, can you tell us how strong this Sacred Beast Pavilion is?" Someone asked hesitantly.

The others turned their heads and waited for his response. They were also curious.

Some of the loyal subordinates of House Silversword were already aware of these matters, but the members of the great allied army were still clueless.

Alaric furrowed his eyebrows. "Since we are talking about this matter, I will tell you everything that you must know about the strongest factions in Cangnan."

He took a deep breath before he continued.

"The leading faction in this continent is the Star Cloud Academy. It is a special institution that gathers all the talented young prodigies in all of Cangnan. They accept one thousand students every year. To qualify as their student, one must be below twenty-five, and they must be a Heroic warrior or a 3-Ringed Beast Soul Master..."

When he mentioned these strict requirements, everyone was stunned. A Heroic warrior was already a qualified general in their great allied army. Furthermore, none of the Heroic warriors under their command were younger than twenty-five. There might be a handful of them, but they are nearly nonexistent.

"The person at the head of this academy is their dean who is a Paragon-level expert. To make you all understand it better, a Paragon expert is two realms above the Beyonder realm."

There was a pin-drop silence when he said this.

Everyone was truly shocked. Their minds were shaken.

To them, a Beyonder warrior was already an existence of absolute power. They couldn’t even imagine what kind of terrifying existence a Paragon was. All they could think was a powerhouse who could dismantle the earth and divide the seas.

Alaric didn’t stop there. "Beneath the Star Cloud Academy are the four divine factions, the Snow Sovereign Palace, Divine Demon Temple, Holy Sun Church, and the Sacred Beast Pavilion."

He paused for a moment before he added.

"Each of these divine factions has a Paragon commanding them from above. They are the true powerhouses of Cangnan."

At this point, everyone seemed to have lost their souls. The information overloaded their minds.

Alaric hadn’t even told them about the elves and the avariels, but he decided to keep it for himself for now. The information he had disclosed was enough to make everyone understand the situation.

After a moment of silence, someone finally spoke. "What should we do, Lord Alaric? If we are facing a behemoth of a faction, we don’t stand a chance. We can only agree to their demands."

As soon as his voice fell, some nodded in agreement, while others kept quiet.

"Lord Alaric..." John Phillip Astania cleared his throat.

Sensing everyone’s gazes on him, he continued solemnly. "We can take this opportunity to have a proper foundation in Cangnan. At this moment, our great allied army can be called a formidable mid-level faction, but we don’t have deep roots in this continent. Compared to other factions, our heritage is limited."

"I suggest that we accept the offer and use the chance to establish ourselves here."

Many agreed with his opinion, with some even voicing their support.

Alaric tapped his fingers on his leg, pondering deeply. "You all make a valid point. If we reject their offer, we will certainly face alienation from all the neighboring cities and powers. They might even use our presence here as an excuse to attack us."

Everyone exhaled deeply upon hearing this.

Alaric swept his eyes and said in a grave tone. "However, if we accept this offer, we will have to face the Golden Lion Tribe. You must know that they have four Beyonders."

Everyone frowned, but there was strong battle intent in their eyes. All the people gathered here were kings and emperors of various nations in the desolate region. Which of them hadn’t faced countless battles? They were not afraid of war.

Looking at their faces, Alaric chuckled helplessly. "It seems like all of you are of one mind. In that case, I will accept their offer."

"Good! That’s the spirit!"

"I know you will say that!"

"I was waiting for you to make this decision, Lord Alaric!"

"Yes!"

Alaric was about to dismiss them, when he suddenly recalled something important.

"Before you go, there is one more matter that we must all decide."

Everyone raised an eyebrow.

Alaric smiled faintly and waved his hand. "You see we have been calling ourselves the great allied army. It would be proper to choose a name for our faction and let the world know of our existence."

Everyone’s eyes lit up.

"That is a good idea! How could our great army remain unnamed? That’s improper!"

"True! What would be the best name for our great army?"

The whole group eagerly exchanged ideas.

"How about this? Dragon Severing Army!"

"No! That sounds too ostentatious!"

"How about the Desolate Sword Hall?"

"Do you want to make our faction sound like a gathering of devil practitioners? Are you an idiot?!"

"Then give us a better name!"

While everyone was arguing, a calm voice suddenly echoed.

"Unified Dominion Vanguard."

The crowd quieted down when they heard this. Some repeated the name and their eyes lit up.

It was a name that represented their origin and also their intention.

Alaric clapped his hands. He was also satisfied with the name. "Splendid!"

He scanned the entire tent and asked. "Does anyone have a better suggestion?"

No one answered. They were all satisfied with the name.

Alaric nodded, looking quite pleased with this name. "Since no one can give a better answer, then from now on, our great allied army is officially called the Unified Dominion Vanguard!"

"Wonderful! Now we finally have a fitting name for our faction! Hahaha!"

"This is great news!"

Looking at their excited faces, Alaric waved his hand. "You are all dismissed. Make sure to spread the word to our soldiers."

"Understood!"

"Yes, Lord!"
