Even with regular troops available for guard duty and patrols, there are simply not enough people with superpowers to go around.
The advanced superhumans have been clearing out the monsters inside the formation, and now that they've finished, they have to rush to the capital to guard the relocated team. They simply don't have any spare manpower.
Although not all the population from the capital will migrate here, a considerable number will still need to be relocated, including several thousand researchers, people with superpowers, and their families from the military.
There are also construction teams that have moved here to build. You should know that the mountains above the top spiritual veins were formed during a major earthquake. There are no human buildings at all. They are real wild forests. Everything needs to be started from scratch.
All of these factors meant that the relocation could not be completed in less than a few months.
Of course, there are also dozens of superhumans in the capital who have broken through level 10. They can handle some spirit beasts on their own, but the problem is that superhumans are slightly weaker than spirit beasts in terms of combat power.
In battles between beings of the same level, it is very difficult for a superhuman to defeat a spirit beast. This gap becomes more and more obvious as the level increases. In other words, a level 10 superhuman has no chance of winning against a level 10 spirit beast alone; at least two people are needed.
However, this also depends on the strength of the spirit beast's abilities. Unlike humans, who only have the five elements, spirit beasts have a wide variety of abilities, some of which are extremely powerful, and they can even take on three opponents at once without any problem.
Furthermore, they were unsure of the number of spirit beasts in the surrounding mountains, and a conflict with them could potentially trigger a chain reaction.
It would be terrible if all the spirit beasts in the top-tier spirit vein region treated them as enemies. You must know that spirit beasts are intelligent and not as easy to deal with as mutated or demonized beasts. If humans and mutated beasts go to war, their base will be surrounded by spirit beasts in an instant.
This is why the Great Xia Base, despite having thousands of level 5 or higher ability users, dares not act rashly. With the Harmony and Cry technique, the chances of human awakening and the speed of cultivation breakthroughs are indeed faster, but the natural gap in physical strength cannot be overcome.
