The gates of Puhe City that had been closed for a long time were slowly pushed open. Groups of armored soldiers came out of the gates and quickly arrived outside of the moat. Then they lined up in formation. The outermost group were spearmen. Every group of spearmen had a few axemen to protect them. In the middle of the group were bed guards. The bed guards of these soldiers were a bit special. These bed guards didn't look very big, but they seemed to be very refined. They were all mounted on carriages and had been adjusted at a good angle. Next to the bed guards were some sword-shield soldiers, they were responsible for protecting the bed guards.
In front of the army, there was also a group of cavalry. However, this group of cavalry was quite special. They didn't have a uniform uniform. They only had a white strip of cloth tied to their clothes to identify them. Moreover, they seemed to be of all ages, which made them look a bit strange.
The speed of this group of cavalry wasn't fast. They maintained the same speed as the army behind them as they slowly moved forward. However, there were no enemies in front of them.
These people were naturally Zhao Hai's group. This time, Zhao Hai proposed a joint attack with Puhe City's soldiers. Lu Jinyan and the others finally agreed. This was because they were at a disadvantage when facing the experts of the Sacred Institute. If they couldn't use ordinary soldiers to resist this disadvantage, then they might suffer a loss in the hands of the Sacred Institute.
Right now, they were fighting on their home ground. Naturally, they had to take advantage of their home ground advantage. And their home ground advantage, aside from the terrain, was naturally these ordinary soldiers.
If an ordinary soldier were to face a single Sky Dance Expert, then they would definitely die. Even if a hundred ordinary soldiers were to face a Sky Dance Expert, then even if they had bed guards, they would still lose without a doubt.
However, when a thousand ordinary soldiers were to face a hundred Sky Dance Experts, it wasn't that they didn't have the strength to fight. If they were given enough nourishment, then they would definitely be able to resist the attack of a Sky Dance Expert. Naturally, the prerequisite was that they were well-trained elite soldiers.
But now, they had ten thousand soldiers. In addition, they had enough ballistas. Even if they were to face a thousand Sky Dance Realm experts, they would still have the strength to fight. This was the advantage of numbers.
Ordinary soldiers were easy to train, but Void Dance experts weren't that easy to come by. Even in the Spiritual Weapon Realm, where the Sacred Academy was constantly training Void Dance experts, there weren't many of them. This was because in the Spiritual Weapon Realm, there would always be all kinds of wars, and these Void Dance experts would often be injured or killed in the war.
However, in the history of the Spirit Weapon World, there had never been an example of a Sky Dance Realm expert working together with an ordinary soldier. Therefore, Lu Jinyan and the others had some doubts about Zhao Hai's suggestion.
But this time, Lu Jinyan didn't come along. He stayed in the city to keep watch. This was because Lu Jinyan was afraid that the people from the Sacred Courtyard would see them leave the city and send troops to attack the city. If the people from the Sacred Courtyard were to attack the city, then Lu Jinyan wouldn't be able to escape.
Zhao Hai and the others kept moving forward. At the same time, the formation behind them was also slowly changing. This was because the road was different from the road outside the city. Ordinary roads wouldn't be able to accommodate the formation, it wasn't that wide.
When marching and fighting, the formation naturally wouldn't be the same. Zhao Hai was very clear about this point. After Zhao Hai took over the Lost Soul City, he began to train them in this aspect. Not only did he train them in marching, he also trained them in how to enter combat mode in the shortest time possible. Naturally, the most important training was how to deal with Sky Dance Realm experts while marching. He even trained them to cooperate with Sky Dance Realm experts.
Zhao Hai rode his horse in the front. It was his idea to have all the Sky Dance Realm experts ride horses. There were strong and weak Sky Dance Realm experts. If everyone used their energy to fly, then how would they fight? Because of this, Zhao Hai proposed to have everyone ride horses. Although everyone felt that it was strange, they still agreed.
Although Sky Dance Realm experts could fly, it was impossible for them to fly all the time. If they had to travel a long distance and didn't have a transmission formation, then they could ride horses, carriages, and ships. They weren't stupid, so they weren't unfamiliar with riding horses. However, they didn't think that Zhao Hai would go out of the city to fight against the Sacred Court. This made them feel very surprised.
They slowly moved forward and quickly left the range of Puhe City's ballistae. However, Zhao Hai didn't stop and kept moving forward. Before long, they heard a sound coming from the nearby woods. Everyone immediately became nervous and took out their weapons. At this time, a sound was heard from the woods. Then a figure rushed out of the woods and directly arrived in front of Zhao Hai's horse.
Everyone stared. Just as they were about to make their move, Zhao Hai said, "Are they still there?"
The person replied, "Replying to the Young Master, they are still there. However, they seem to be very angry. Moreover, they are preparing to send people to Puhe City. They want to carefully investigate the situation before attacking at night."
When everyone heard the conversation between the two, they knew that the person who came was actually one of their own. They looked at the person and saw that he was wearing black clothes. He didn't have any special features, but he looked very spirited. He gave people a feeling that he was very capable.
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, you can go. Continue to monitor those people, but don't let them discover you. Go." The person nodded, then his figure moved and entered the woods. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared. Naturally, this person was Ironwire. How could Zhao Hai give up on monitoring those people from the Sacred Institute? Letting Ironwire monitor them was the best choice. Not only because Ironwire can escape, but also because Iron Sword can turn into Ironwire Grass. Ironwire Grass was a physical plant, it was no different from an ordinary plant. For people who haven't seen magic plants before, Ironwire was the best choice to scout for information.
After Ironwire left, Zhao Hai said, "Pass down the order. Get ready for battle, but don't stop. Keep moving forward and pretend that you don't know about the Sacred Institute's attack." Stonehammer, who was by Zhao Hai's side, nodded. Then his figure moved and went to the back to pass down the order.
The others were looking at Zhao Hai's movements. They didn't expect to meet the enemy this quickly. They also didn't think that Zhao Hai would give such an order. However, they also knew that Zhao Hai brought soldiers from the Lost Soul City. Therefore, they didn't say anything.
The army was still slowly moving forward. However, everyone's spirit was raised as they paid attention to the sky. After less than ten minutes, black dots appeared in the distant sky. Then more and more black dots appeared. In the end, the number of black dots reached 100. These black dots were flying forward at a very fast speed.
However, these black dots quickly discovered Zhao Hai's army. After all, more than 10 thousand people were moving together. It was impossible for them not to be discovered.
After these 100 black dots discovered Zhao Hai's army, half of them immediately flew back. The rest flew towards them, but they stopped far away. They were still monitoring Zhao Hai's army.
Zhao Hai looked at these black dots and said, "Pass down the order. Everyone stop and get ready for battle." The order was quickly passed down, and the Iron Armored Army was ready to fight at any time.
However, Zhao Hai didn't fly up. He was still sitting on the carriage. The other Sky Dance Grade people were puzzled as they looked at Zhao Hai. Now that the enemy had discovered them and they were ready for battle, why didn't they fly up?
Zhao Hai and the others just stood there. Before long, black dots appeared in the sky. These black dots gathered together with the black dots that were monitoring Zhao Hai's army. Then they flew straight towards Zhao Hai's army.
Zhao Hai narrowed his eyes as he looked at the black dots flying towards them. Then he said, "They're really arrogant. It seems like we didn't hit them enough today. Get ready for battle." After he said that, Zhao Hai's figure moved and flew up. The others also followed suit and flew up. Then they arranged themselves in a very simple formation. Then they slowly retreated until they reached the top of the army.
At this time, the people from the Holy Institute also stopped. They stopped outside of the range of the arrows. However, the range of the arrows wasn't short, it was more than a kilometer. Therefore, they stopped two li away from the army.
When the people from the Holy Courtyard stopped, they immediately shouted to Zhao Hai, "Zhao Hai, you're finally willing to come out of your turtle shell. You killed Sir Wu Ya, our Holy Courtyard will definitely not let you off. We'll tear you to pieces and destroy your Lost Soul City. We'll make sure that you don't have a good death!"
Zhao Hai faintly smiled and said, "Threats are useless. As long as you have the strength, you can kill me or cut me up. But if you don't have the strength, then I'm sorry. What you're saying now is just nonsense. I think you should save your strength."
The leader of the Holy Institute looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Zhao Hai, don't be arrogant. You're dead today. If you were in the city, we might not be able to do anything to you. But since you came out, then you'll die. Don't think that those ballistas can save you. They won't be able to save you, you're dead."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Then why don't you try?" Zhao Hai could hear that the other party's tone was full of hatred. At the same time, there was also a little bit of fear. This couldn't be blamed on the people from the Holy Institute. Wu Ya dared to be called the strongest person under Broken River, then he must be very strong. He might even be the strongest person in the Holy Institute army. But such a strong person was killed by Zhao Hai. For these people, the impact was very big. These people didn't think that Zhao Hai would be this strong. Therefore, although they wanted to kill Zhao Hai, they were still afraid of his strength.
