Su Mo felt helpless about the expedition. However, since he was a squadron leader of the second platoon, he had to obey the military order.
After the army was dismissed, he was called over by the platoon leader, Ren Tianya.
Ren Tianya gathered the 10 squadron leaders under his command, including Su Mo, for a simple meeting. The content of the meeting was nothing more than arranging their respective teams.
The other nine platoon leaders were not weak. They were either Rank 3 or Rank 4 Martial Honoured Realm martial artists.
After the meeting, Su Mo returned to his residence and gathered Heng Fei, Ge Li, Wang Xi and the other platoon leaders. He made some simple arrangements and instructed them to get ready to set off. He also instructed them to manage their own troops.
It was a quiet night. The next morning, the first and second platoons of Red Dragon Camp, led by the two platoon leaders, headed to the southern part of the city.
There was an even larger drill ground at the southern part of the city. When Su Mo and the other soldiers of Red Dragon Camp arrived, the drill ground was already packed with soldiers.
A Black Armor Army of 20,000 soldiers was lined up neatly on the drill ground. They were majestic, cold and murderous. Their terrifying aura dyed the white clouds in the sky black.
This was an army that had been through many battles. They were well-trained and far more powerful than Red Dragon Camp.
Of course, the cultivation level of the soldiers in this army was not on the same level as Red Dragon Camp.
Although there were not many people in Red Dragon Camp, the lowest cultivation level was a middle-rank Martial Emperor. Many of the platoon leaders were Martial Honoured Realm martial artists.
In this Black Armor Army, most of them were Martial Royal Realm martial artists. Less than one-tenth of them were Martial Emperors and there were only a few dozen Martial Honoured Realm martial artists.
Su Mo knew that this was another army of the Imperial Ancestor Court Faction and it was called the Black Cloud Army.
In front of the Black Cloud Army stood a burly middle-aged man. He wore purple armor and looked majestic and domineering.
This man was the commander of the Black Cloud Army, Jin Tai.
In front of the Dark Cloud Legion, there was a square platform that was a hundred feet tall. It was several hundred feet in length and width.
Su Mo and the other two platoons of Red Dragon Camp formed two squads on the drill ground and met up with the Black Cloud Army.
The two platoon leaders stood at the front and faced the platform like Jin Tai and waited patiently.
Be it the Black Cloud Army or the Red Dragon Camp, there was silence and not a single sound could be heard.
Su Mo's gaze swept across the soldiers on both sides and he saw a few familiar faces.
For example, Zhu Ying was still in the Red Dragon Camp and he was also in the Second Platoon. However, he was transferred to another platoon and seemed to have become a squad leader.
Furthermore, Su Mo saw Jin Lu and Zhu Tong in the Black Cloud Army.
These two people seemed to have high positions in the Dark Cloud Army, and they both stood at the very front.
Jin Lu's body had returned to normal and his physical body was not destroyed. However, his face was pale and it was obvious that his injuries had not fully recovered.
As though they had sensed Su Mo's gaze, Jin Lu and Zhu Tong both turned to look at Su Mo.
Their eyes were as cold as frost, without the slightest hint of emotion.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!
After waiting for about fifteen minutes, several figures flew over from the sky and landed on the stone platform in front of them.
When Su Mo looked carefully, he could not help but be surprised. The people who had landed on the platform were all women.
The one in front was wearing a blue armor. She was tall and her skin was as white as snow. Her eyes were like a clear spring.
This woman was the Second Princess of the Imperial Ancestor Court, Gu Feifei.
Beside the Second Princess, there were five female guards. All of them were wearing white armor and they were all experts of the Martial Honoured Realm.
"Greetings to the Second Princess!"
The soldiers of the Red Dragon Camp and the Black Cloud Army shouted loudly and their voices reverberated through the air.
Many of the soldiers looked respectful and passionate. The Second Princess's prestige in the army was strong and it far exceeded that of the three Princes.
This was also because the Second Princess had been with the army since she was young. She had fought in many battles and had forged her reputation.
In the entire Imperial Ancestor Court, no one dared to look down on the Second Princess just because she was a woman.
This was an extraordinary woman with extraordinary talent who was not inferior to any man.
Fortunately, the Second Princess was a woman. Otherwise, how would the three Princes have the chance to fight for the throne?
The Second Princess nodded slightly. Her beautiful eyes were like lightning as she looked at the soldiers and asked loudly, "Is the army in position?"
"Second Princess, the 20,000 soldiers of the Black Cloud Army are ready to go!" Jin Tai said loudly.
"Second Princess, the first platoon of the Red Dragon Camp is ready to go!" The platoon leader of the first platoon of the Red Dragon Camp said loudly.
"Second Princess, the second platoon of the Red Dragon Camp is ready to go!" Ren Tianya said loudly.
Jin Tai and the two platoon leaders of the Red Dragon Camp were all Rank 9 Martial Honoured Realm Cultivation. Their voices were unusually deep and they were like rolling waves.
The platoon leader of the first platoon was a tall, long-faced young man named Hua Xun.
When the Second Princess heard this, she nodded slightly again. Then, a golden token appeared in her hand.
The token was the size of a Jade Slip and it shone brightly like a small golden sun.
What was more shocking was that in the dazzling golden light, there seemed to be a five-clawed golden dragon dancing in it. It was shocking.
This was the Tiger Seal used by the Holy Dynasty to mobilize the army. It was unique and could not be replicated.
"This time, I will be in charge of the army!"
The Second Princess's voice was cold and it spread in all directions. She continued, "According to the news from the border, the army of the Blood Pupil Clan has surrounded the Black Mountain Fort. We will set off immediately!"
"Yes!" The soldiers replied loudly.
Then, the Second Princess waved her hand and 10 warships appeared in the sky. Each of the warships was a few hundred feet long and they were purplish gold in color.
"Within two breaths, everyone will board the warships and head to the Black Mountain Fort!" The Second Princess shouted loudly.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!!
Before the Second Princess's voice fell, countless soldiers flashed and flew to the warships.
In less than two breaths, more than 20,000 soldiers had boarded the warships. Su Mo, Ren Tianya, and the soldiers of the second platoon of the Red Dragon Camp boarded the same warship.
The Second Princess also boarded another warship. Then, the 10 warships were like 10 rays of purple light that shot into the sky and headed towards the Black Mountain Fort.
The warships were very spacious. Even if there were a thousand people in them, it would not feel crowded.
Su Mo stood at the bow of the warship and looked calmly at the Empty Space that the warships were tearing apart.
The speed of the warship was slower than the Virtual Ship that he had taken to the True Sage Territory when he was at Shenwu Academy.
Even so, the speed of the warship was very fast and it was much faster than his flying speed.
"Black Mountain Fort!" Su Mo muttered to himself. He knew about this place. He had been there before and he had guarded the Spiritual Stone Mine nearby for a period of time.
