The next morning, just as dawn broke, the sun had yet to rise, and the sound of horns and war drums echoed through the Hun army.
“Woo-woo…”
“Boom-boom…”
At the signal of war, the garrison at Peace Pass quickly ascended the city walls to defend against the Hun army.
The vanguard of the Hun siege force surged like a tide. Simultaneously, arrows rained down from the Hun army, covering the sky and shooting toward the city walls.
Hun cavalry roamed below the walls, shooting as they went.
“Kill!!”
The deafening shouts shook the heavens. Many new recruits in the garrison, who had never experienced war, turned pale at the sight.
“Watch out for the arrows, everyone stay calm. The Huns can’t breach the walls,” Harrison Zhou shouted loudly.
Today, it was his battalion’s turn to guard the walls.
To be honest, he wasn’t confident. Most of his soldiers were new recruits who had never seen blood. He just hoped they wouldn’t panic and retreat in terror when the Huns reached the walls.
Soon, after paying a heavy price, the Hun army climbed the walls and engaged in fierce combat with the garrison.
“Kill!”
The sound of battle on the walls was extremely brutal.
Seeing his soldiers climb the walls, Jackson Hun immediately gave an order.
“Five of you, please take action and behead the commander of Peace Pass, Calvin Yang.”
“Left Wise King, just wait. We’ll bring you his head.”
Five Grandmasters simultaneously took to the air, arriving above Peace Pass.
The terrifying pressure of the Grandmasters made many feel a deep sense of fear.
“Calvin Yang, come out and die!” one Grandmaster shouted, his voice booming like thunder across the sky.
“Damn, how arrogant!” Elliott Sun and the others turned pale as they looked at the five Grandmasters.
“I’ll handle them. You all hold the walls,” Calvin Yang said, holding his Overlord Spear, stepping forward to confront the five Grandmasters in the air.
Facing five formidable enemies, he didn’t retreat a single step, even if it meant dying in battle.
“Attack, kill him!”
The five Hun Grandmasters attacked Calvin Yang.
Terrifying True Essence waves surged in the sky like tides.
Boom!!
The battle was fierce. Facing five strong enemies, Calvin Yang didn’t dare to hold back. Three of them were late-stage Grandmasters, and the other two were mid-stage Grandmasters.
Even though Calvin Yang was a Grandmaster at Great Perfection, he had to take them seriously.
The Postnatal Martial Artists and Innate experts in the Hun army also climbed the walls to join the siege.
Elliott Sun, Edward Zhao, Declan Li, and others also took action to stop the experts in the Hun army.
Facing the fierce assault of the Hun army, Peace Pass was in grave danger.
Calvin Yang fought the five Grandmasters without losing ground, which made Jackson Hun frown. Five against one, and they still couldn’t take down Calvin Yang.
He didn’t know that Calvin Yang was incredibly powerful, and his Overlord Spear Technique was terrifyingly fierce. The five Grandmasters combined could only fight him to a draw.
Seeing the five Grandmasters unable to defeat Calvin Yang after a long battle, Jackson Hun couldn’t help but seek help from Seth Helan.
Although it was embarrassing, he had no choice but to swallow his pride to break through the pass quickly.
“My lord, please lend a hand and take Peace Pass,” Jackson Hun requested, cupping his hands.
Seth Helan looked at Jackson Hun and didn’t refuse.
“I’ll help you this once,” Seth Helan said indifferently, implying that Jackson Hun would owe him a favor.
“My lord, please take action. I owe you a favor,” Jackson Hun said, unwilling to owe the favor but having no choice.
To quickly take Peace Pass and sweep through Yong Prefecture and Ding Prefecture, he had to let Seth Helan take action, kill Calvin Yang, and let the five Grandmasters climb the walls to clear out the Great Wei troops.
As soon as Seth Helan moved, he appeared in the sky in the next moment.
Calvin Yang immediately felt a terrifying threat, his gaze fixed on Seth Helan.
A Great Grandmaster!!
The Hun army had brought a Great Grandmaster.
Peace Pass was in grave danger.
Calvin Yang’s face turned ashen. It seemed that Peace Pass couldn’t be defended today.
Inside the city, the veteran waiting to replace the soldiers on the walls frowned, showing a hint of hesitation.
“What’s wrong, Platoon Leader?” Ian Zhang asked the veteran.
“Sigh, it seems our comfortable days are over,” the veteran sighed.
He couldn’t bear to see this city fall to the Hun cavalry.
After all, he had been here for over ten or twenty years.
Then, Ian Zhang saw the veteran suddenly fly into the sky.
“Fly, fly, fly…he’s gone?!”
He had followed the veteran for so long, how did the veteran suddenly become a great expert?
“Hmm?!”
Seth Helan looked at the veteran blocking his way, raising an eyebrow. A Great Grandmaster!?
Peace Pass actually had a hidden Great Grandmaster!!
When the veteran appeared in the sky, Calvin Yang, Elliott Sun, Declan Li, and others were stunned.
When did their Peace Army have such a terrifying expert hidden among them?
“Let them fight, we’ll just watch,” the veteran said.
Seth Helan shook his head. “Peace Pass will fall. I must find the one who killed my grandson.”
“Then there’s no room for negotiation,” the veteran sighed. It seemed a fight was inevitable.
He really didn’t want to take action!!
After all, he had finally enjoyed peace for over ten years.
Seth Helan didn’t waste words with the veteran. He raised his hand and struck, wanting to force the veteran to stay out of it. To make him a bystander, he had to defeat him.
With one palm strike, the wind and clouds moved, and the terrifying pressure made countless hearts tremble.
Calvin Yang and the others quickly moved away, changing the battlefield, not daring to get close to Seth Helan and the veteran, fearing the battle would affect them.
The veteran raised his hand, throwing a punch. The rolling True Essence burned like fire, igniting the void.
Boom!!
When fist met palm, it sounded like thunder, echoing through the sky. The terrifying power waves spread out, making Calvin Yang and the others feel a lingering fear.
If that fist or palm landed on them, they would likely be blown apart in one hit.
Seeing the veteran take action to block the Hun Great Grandmaster, Calvin Yang felt a surge of joy and excitement. He had thought he was doomed today.
It seemed he wouldn’t die today, and Peace Pass might have a chance to hold.
He had always thought the veteran was just a skilled old soldier, never imagining he was a hidden great expert.
Seth Helan and the veteran clashed, and he immediately felt that the veteran’s strength was not inferior to his own.
Gathering power in his fist, True Essence surged, his organs resonated, and powerful energy condensed in his fist. His fist glowed with a mysterious light, shaking the void. With one punch, the air exploded.
Boom!!
The veteran transformed his fist into a palm, with patterns of heaven and earth glowing in his palm, shining brilliantly. His bones seemed to emit a crystalline light, possessing immense power.
Boom!!
When fist met palm, it sounded like thunder, causing countless people to experience ear-splitting noise. The overwhelming power was like a god descending to the mortal world, beyond what ordinary people could imagine.
The veteran and Seth Helan fought fiercely, their fists and palms clashing, shaking the void. True Essence surged like tides, making it impossible for anyone to get close.
With the veteran holding off Seth Helan, Calvin Yang no longer feared and continued to battle the five Hun Grandmasters. Both sides fought ruthlessly, aiming to kill each other.
For Calvin Yang, it was either him or the Hun Grandmasters who would die.
In the dire situation at Peace Pass, the veteran exposed himself to block the Hun Great Grandmaster, preventing the fall of the pass.
The brutal battle continued, with the sky being the battlefield for the Grandmasters and Great Grandmasters.
On the walls, it was the soldiers’ battlefield.
The city walls of Peace Pass were littered with corpses, the ground stained red with blood.
Although the veteran blocked Seth Helan, the ordinary soldiers and officers of the Peace Army were at a significant disadvantage against the Huns. Many garrison soldiers died under the Hun blades.
Soon, Harrison Zhou’s battalion was wiped out, with two thousand men dead.
Colonel Lin’s soldiers quickly filled the gap, resisting the Hun forces.
The situation was grim. The Hun army had more Martial Artists, Martial Masters, and Postnatal Martial Artists than the Peace Army. It wouldn’t be long before Peace Pass was breached by the Huns.
By then, even the veteran and Calvin Yang would be powerless to turn the tide!!
“Where’s Oliver Sheng? We can’t hold on much longer,” Elliott Sun and the others couldn’t help the soldiers being slaughtered.
They were all held back by the Hun Innate experts, helplessly watching their soldiers die under the Hun blades.
“Maybe he’s on his way, hang in there,” Declan Li shouted.
At this moment, their only hope was Oliver Sheng’s army.
