ng Lie countered.
”Why? This is good news. ”

”How could it be good news? Seven sura kingdoms are attacking us together! ”

Zhang Lie shouted back, ”It ’s exactly because there are seven! If we can defeat them all, we ’ll leave an indelible mark in history—the whole realm will know our name! ”

”But we ’re fighting against sura kings, and seven of them! ” The troops began to panic.

”Oh? As if we haven ’t already killed a sura king or two! ” Zhang Lie snorted.
”One came by yesterday, and he did wreak some damage on our city walls, but isn ’t he hanging on the wall now? Renhuang will never back down.
If the seven kings think that they can take down this city—well, they ’re wrong, and they ’ll pay the ultimate price for that mistake! Or do you want to run away and watch Renhuang fall? ”

Zhang Lie ’s eyes were so resolute that he calmed down the panicking forces just with his aura alone.

”The sura might have their seven kings, but I have my Team Zenith, as well as the clan leaders of no fewer than three alien races! ”

The members of Team Zenith and the three clan leaders strode forward proudly, quashing the troops ’ fear.

Zhang Lie continued confidently, ”With them around, with me around, Renhuang shall not fall! ”

They had all seen how strong Zhang Lie himself was—he had raided two sura kingdoms successfully and claimed their capitals for himself.
He had always done as he promised, and since he promised that Renhuang wouldn ’t fall, they believed him.

With Zhang Lie around, they would survive.

Zhang Lie raised his arms into the air and shouted, ”We ’ve faced down sura kings before—they won ’t be a threat, not even if we have to take down seven at once! ”

”Renhuang will not fall! Renhuang is invincible! ”

Sun Mengmeng shouted, raising her arms as well.

”Renhuang will not fall! Renhuang is invincible! ”

The other members of Team Zenith and the three clan leaders echoed the chant,

which quickly spread through the crowd.
”Renhuang will not fall! Renhuang is invincible! ”

More and more of the troops raised their arms gaily into the air.
”Renhuang will not fall! Renhuang is invincible! ”

In the end, everyone was shouting the same thing in unison, and the troops ’ morale, which had dipped precipitously as they learned about the upcoming invasion, rose sharply again.

Zhang Lie clenched a fist and made an abortive motion with his other arm, and the chant stopped instantly.

”The sura kings want to take the fight to us, but they won ’t succeed—because we ’ll take the initiative and strike first! Members of Team Zenith, here are your orders! ”

”Yes, Captain! ”

The members of Team Zenith stepped forward.

”Sun Xiaowu, you ’ll set out with your troops toward the west! ”

”Yang Ze and Hong Xi, northwest! ”

”Fang Yi, north! ”

”Li Feng, northeast! ”

”Zhou Ying and the shaman of the wood spirits, east! ”

Theft is never good, try looking at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

”Sun Mengmeng and the leader of the rock spirits, southeast! ”

”Yessir! ”

The six groups of forces set off from the city proper.

Zhang Lie continued standing on the city walls as he observed the forces setting off in six different directions.
Given what he had seen of their strength, he was certain that none of them would lose.

Some of the hunters who had come to Renhuang to provide aid, who had once been imprisoned by the sura, were unqualified for combat for some reason or another, and they were assigned to help out with logistics and administrative issues instead.

When they witnessed Zhang Lie ’s speech, they couldn ’t help but feel invigorated, that they likewise had to do their part.
They recorded the speech and uploaded it to the hunters ’ forums.
