Determined to break through enemy lines, ready to die without retreat!
When these words were shouted from the honorable and righteous Zhong Yi’s mouth, they exuded a momentum that could swallow mountains and rivers!
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
In the Death Valley wilderness, battle cries shook the heavens!
Pulling the view to the sky in an overhead perspective, one could see that under Zhong Yi’s command, a thousand Wolf Cavalry Hall members riding Hurricane Wolves surged down from the hillside like a tide.
The scene.
Was absolutely spectacular!
“Awooo!”
“Awooo!”
Wolf howls transmitted through the mountains and wilderness, startling ten thousand warhorses into panic!
If not for the soldiers forcibly controlling them, they would have already fled in terror.
Though these warhorses had undergone professional training and experienced battlefield slaughter, seeing ferocious wolf beasts, they would definitely become weak-kneed.
“No suspense whatsoever.”
Jun Changxiao stood on a distant boulder, watching Zhenyang Prefecture’s cavalry descend into chaos, his eyes showing disappointment.
Dispatching the Wolf Cavalry Hall to intercept was the first operation after formal training. The result—the opponents were too weak. They hadn’t even charged over yet, and the enemy was already thrown into disarray.
It wasn’t that Zhenyang Prefecture’s cavalry was weak—the Wolf Cavalry was too strong!
Ask yourself, who else in the Star Meteorite Continent could use rare wind-element fierce beasts to form a thousand-man Wolf Cavalry Regiment!
“Gen… General…” The sole remaining deputy general struggled to steady his frightened warhorse, his voice trembling, “It’s… Hurricane Wolf… packs!”
“Impossible!” Miao Kuai’s face changed drastically.
He wasn’t shocked by the suddenly appearing Hurricane Wolf pack, but shocked that such rare wolf beasts would actually carry people—so many people!
If someone was lucky enough to subdue a Hurricane Wolf, Miao Kuai could understand.
But a thousand people subduing a thousand Hurricane Wolves—that was something he couldn’t dream of even in dreams!
Wait!
Qingyang Prefecture’s Iron Bones Sect seemed to also ride wolf beasts!
He had heard some things circulating in the martial world recently, though he spent all his time in military camps and only heard them as gossip, never taking them to heart.
Now with a large-scale wolf beast cavalry attacking, it made him wonder—could this be Iron Bones Sect disciples?
Whoosh—
Suddenly, a stream of light shot forth at extreme speed, precisely eliminating the last deputy general.
Xiao Zuiji, lurking in a distant tree, quickly pulled the bolt to chamber a round. Through his eight-power scope, he aimed at the shocked Miao Kuai. Though the crosshairs had locked onto his head, he didn’t pull the trigger.
The Sect Master said to take his head.
If a bullet blew out his brains, that would somewhat ruin the aesthetic.
With the Wolf Cavalry Hall plus snipers in the shadows, Miao Kuai leading ten thousand cavalry on a long-distance raid looked however you viewed it like—delivering one’s head from a thousand miles!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
On the opposite side, under Zhong Yi’s command, the thousand Wolf Cavalry Hall members formed a Single-Point Spear Formation and ruthlessly thrust in.
The Zhenyang Prefecture soldiers struggling to control their warhorses had no time to deploy any defensive formation before their chests were ruthlessly pierced by spears!
Boom! Boom!
Warhorses after warhorse were knocked flying by the burly Hurricane Wolves. Some struck rocks with their internal organs ruptured, blood flowing from all seven orifices, dying on the spot!
To be precise.
This was tanks versus cavalry—complete domination!
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
After the Wolf Cavalry Hall members ruthlessly tore through the defense lines, they vigorously wielded their Overlord Spears, picking the surrounding cavalry off their horses one by one!
“Splurt! Splurt!”
The Hurricane Wolves beneath them all swung their front claws, talons repeatedly slashing through the void, directly dismembering the soldiers who had just fallen to the ground!
Though the scene was bloody, it also demonstrated the cruelty of the battlefield.
In combat between two armies, no one would consider mercy, nor care whether methods were cruel or not, because only by killing could one survive.
“Kill!”
“Kill!”
The Wolf Cavalry Hall members with average cultivation at ninth-rank Wutu, wielding Overlord Spears and riding Hurricane Wolves, facing a group of soldiers mounted on frightened warhorses—it could truly only be described as a massacre!
At first, Jun Changxiao had worried about casualties, but after seeing his own members plunge into the crowd, swiftly slaughtering Zhenyang Prefecture soldiers like cutting through tangled hemp and instantly gaining absolute dominance, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Damn it.
He’d overestimated Zhenyang Prefecture’s strength!
From City Lord Xie’s words, learning that war would soon affect Qingyang Prefecture, Sect Master Jun had prepared and busied himself considerably this past month. The result—the first battle was this easy.
Truthfully.
He really had overestimated them.
Not to mention sending disciples into battle—even just letting the Hurricane Wolf pack charge over could easily resolve this. After all, their average strength was at mid-fifth-rank level.
Mid-fifth-rank corresponded to fifth-rank Wushi!
Ten thousand soldiers of fifth and sixth-rank Wutu forming a cavalry regiment facing a thousand mid-fifth-rank Hurricane Wolves—absolutely no chance of victory.
“Retreat! Retreat!” Miao Kuai shouted in terror.
The defense lines were completely torn apart, soldiers thrown into utter chaos.
At this point, they simply couldn’t mount any effective counterattack. Retreating was the wisest choice.
However, facing a pack known for speed—wind-element fierce beasts—could they retreat?
The answer was no.
Not only could his subordinates not retreat, but he himself couldn’t either, because he had already been targeted by Zhong Yi, who charged over with Overlord Spear in hand.
“Swish!”
Miao Kuai immediately summoned his great blade, slashing out a blade aura of tremendous force.
As one of the White Tiger Legion’s fierce generals, his strength was quite good, having already reached first-rank Wuzong level!
Bang—
Zhong Yi’s spear thrust like a dragon, directly breaking through the blade aura, then leaping from the wolf’s back, spiritual energy infused into the spear tip, ruthlessly thrusting over.
“Impossible!” Miao Kuai was shocked and horrified.
This attacking fellow was only Peak Wushi in strength, yet could easily break through his blade aura!
“Clang!”
Too late to think more, he positioned his great blade horizontally before him, using the blade surface to block the spear tip converging with violent power.
“Thud!”
The warhorse beneath him couldn’t bear the force and directly collapsed to the ground!
“Swish!”
Miao Kuai was also shaken off the horse’s back, then stumbled as he landed on the ground, his eyes filled with shock, “You… are you Wushi or Wuzong!”
This was a battlefield, not a tea party.
Zhong Yi naturally wouldn’t waste words with him. Treading the Cloud Steps to rapidly close in, he immediately thrust out a series of spear lights!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Miao Kuai suppressed his shock, using his great blade to block left and right. Because his opponent’s power was too formidable, his arms were shaken numb.
No good!
This fellow’s strength wasn’t inferior to his own. Continuing to fight would definitely be troublesome!
Miao Kuai’s heart turned to retreat. He hurriedly executed his movement technique, fleeing toward the mountain forest depths. Unable to protect even himself, he could no longer care about his subordinates surrounded by the wolf cavalry.
“Zuiji.”
Jun Changxiao transmitted, “Don’t let this fellow escape.”
Whoosh!
The words barely fell before Xiao Zuiji, who had long been aiming, decisively pulled the trigger. The bullet transformed into a stream of light, explosively shooting toward the mountain forest depths.
Miao Kuai, who had just plunged into the forest, heard the wind-breaking sound and immediately sensed danger!
Just as he prepared to dodge, his thigh was struck by the bullet, and he was sent flying.
“Swish!”
He had just fallen to the ground and hadn’t yet screamed in pain when Zhong Yi caught up, standing before him. The spear tip gleaming with dazzling light was already pressed against his neck.
“Splurt!”
“Splurt!”
Behind them in that area, Wolf Cavalry Hall members continued their frenzied slaughter. Zhenyang Prefecture’s ten thousand cavalry were being eliminated one by one.
Unable to control their frightened warhorses, these cavalrymen were even worse than infantry.
Half an hour later.
Corpses lay scattered, fresh blood pooling into rivers!
At this point, Zhenyang Prefecture’s cavalry regiment, having ridden a thousand miles to raid, had become delivering one’s head from a thousand miles.
“Thud!”
The wounded Miao Kuai was thrown by Zhong Yi at Jun Changxiao’s feet. When he saw the completely annihilated cavalry regiment, his face instantly became extremely vicious.
“Executioner.”
Xue Rengui stood before him, saying calmly, “After slaughtering so many innocent common people, it’s time to repay with your life.”
Miao Kuai raised his head with difficulty, saying in terror, “You… you’re Five-Star General Xue Rengui of Central Sovereign Province?!”
