Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 467 Attack
"Shhhhhh!"

The arrows fired from Zhuge's crossbow are far more powerful than those from a normal bow and arrow, and they are also easy to carry and attack swiftly and quickly.

Soul Masters at the Soul Master level cannot withstand the power of the Zhuge Crossbow without using their third or fourth Soul Skill to defend themselves.

The Heaven Dou Empire's first display of overwhelming combat power against the Spirit Empire's army greatly excited Prince Xue Xing, who was the commander-in-chief.

"Excellent! The power of this Zhuge Crossbow on the battlefield is truly extraordinary!" Prince Xuexing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Even if the Spirit Empire has a Spirit Master army, it is impossible for it to be composed entirely of mid-level or high-level Spirit Masters; most of them are low-level Spirit Masters.

Low-level Soul Masters would find it very difficult to withstand the attack of Zhuge Divine Crossbow.

This has led to the current situation, where the army of the Spirit Empire has been easily crushed by the army of the Heaven Dou Empire.

The easy victory over the Spirit Empire's army boosted the morale of the Heaven Dou Empire's side, with soldiers letting out deafening roars to vent their resentment at being suppressed by the Spirit Empire over the years.

The speed at which they captured seven cities surprised even the high-ranking officials of the Martial Soul Empire.

The orders they received indicated a plan to relinquish some territory, but they couldn't simply return it to the Heavenly Dou Empire; they had to make them pay a price.

But the current situation is completely different from what they had imagined.

"What's going on? Why was the Heavenly Dou Empire able to seize seven cities so easily?"

"I heard that their army is equipped with a special weapon, which greatly increases their combat power. They also have the help of soul masters from the Thunder God Sect and the Clear Sky Sect to attack the city, which is why we are in the current situation."

"Especially the Soul Masters of the Thunder God Sect, once they enter the Martial Soul True Body stage, they are comparable to Soul Beasts with ten thousand years of cultivation. The city's defenses are easily breached by them."

"No, we can't let them take our territory so easily, otherwise their appetite will grow. We must make them back down."

"..."

After discussions among the high-ranking officials of the Spirit Empire, the defensive forces of the Spirit Empire in the eighth city were made exceptionally strong.

There are seven Soul Douluo-level experts alone. Keep in mind that the Thunder God Sect and the Clear Sky Sect only sent a total of five Soul Douluo-level experts.

The army guarding the eighth city included the Xuan Shield Legion and the Giant Strength Legion.

This is a low-to-mid-level Soul Master Legion trained by the Spirit Empire. It cannot be compared with the Soul Master Legions of the Seven Great Sects, but it is definitely stronger than ordinary Soul Master Legions, let alone Legions composed of ordinary soldiers.

As their names suggest, the two legions are formed by Soul Masters with shield-type Martial Souls. They have undergone special training by the Martial Soul Empire, possessing excellent defensive capabilities and playing a significant role on the battlefield.

The Giant Strength Legion is composed of Strength Soul Masters. Besides strength, defense is the second most important attribute for these Strength Soul Masters. The Martial Soul Empire is prepared to cultivate the Giant Strength Legion, which may become a high-quality military force.

"Marshal, this time it seems we won't be so easy to deal with."

The general standing next to Prince Xuexing spoke up, saying that he had seen the two major Soul Master legions of the Spirit Empire. They were clearly well-trained and their Spirit configurations were not weak; one could tell from their imposing presence.

"Hmph, our army has won consecutive victories and its morale is high. Even if the Martial Soul Empire is prepared, it may not be able to withstand us."

The series of victories over this period of time made Prince Xuexing somewhat arrogant, and he felt that the army of the Martial Soul Empire was not a threat.

Among the three major sects, Bing Yun was out for training. As the future peak master of Thunder Dragon Peak, Bing Ju had high expectations for him. During his time at Thunder God Sect, Bing Yun also received instruction from Tie Li, and his mastery of the Six Sounds of Thunder Dragon was the most comprehensive among this generation of disciples.

"Brother Yun, this battle seems different."

The young man beside Bing Yun couldn't help but look at the Martial Soul Empire army below the city, with the two major Soul Master legions standing out.

And those who control these two major Soul Master legions are Xie Yue and Yan.

Bing Yun recognized them, his eyes narrowing. The golden generation of the Spirit Empire? He wondered how they compared to himself.
As the most outstanding genius soul master of the Thunder God Sect, Bing Yun's pride was no less than that of Xie Yue and Yan.

"Act according to the situation. Don't forget what the peak master told us before we left. Protecting ourselves is the most important thing."

The leading elder of the Thunder God Sect immediately reminded them that their main task was to protect these Thunder God Sect disciples, not to risk their lives to help the Heavenly Dou Empire.

Recently, the Heavenly Dou Empire has provided assistance to the Thunder God Sect in many ways in an attempt to ease tensions between the two.

The Thunder God Sect needed to develop and did not refuse the assistance of the Heavenly Dou Empire. Both sides had a common enemy, which led to a slight easing of tensions between them.

However, in aiding the Heavenly Dou Empire in its war efforts, the disciples of the Thunder God Sect must prioritize their own safety and minimize any losses.

"Elder, we understand."

The elders of the Thunder God Sect were still very worried. On the previous battlefield, these disciples had gone all out and killed many soldiers of the Martial Soul Empire. Several disciples had suffered serious injuries.

I need to keep a close eye on them to prevent any casualties.

Prince Xuexing and the Soul Masters from the Spirit Empire engaged in a fierce verbal exchange, which included some vulgar insults. Amidst the heated exchanges, the battle between the two armies commenced.

With the Zhuge Divine Crossbow in hand, the Heavenly Dou Empire gained the upper hand the moment the battle began. The sound of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, combined with the sound of arrows tearing through space, became the most feared sound by the Martial Soul Empire army.

In an instant, a large number of soldiers collapsed in pools of blood.

"Immediately have the Xuan Shield Legion stand at the forefront."

The Martial Soul Empire was prepared for the Heaven Dou Empire's Zhuge Divine Crossbow, which is why it dispatched the Xuan Shield Legion.

Three colors of spirit rings appeared: white, yellow, and purple. The yellow, century-old spirit ring was the main color. At the same time, the martial spirit was released, and the Xuan Shield Legion was like a huge shield, easily blocking the attack of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"呲呲呲!"

The disciples of the Thunder God Sect were the first to strike, their gathered lightning bolts aimed at the Xuan Shield Legion.

At first, the Xuan Shield Legion could hold on, but they soon began to struggle. These Thunder God Sect disciples had strong soul power and also knew how to use combined attacks, so how could they be controlled by the Xuan Shield Legion?
"The Mighty Legion is launching its attack. You will lead your respective troops to support the Mighty Legion's assault from the sidelines."

Upon seeing the Martial Soul Empire launch a full-scale attack, Prince Xuexing immediately organized his army to counterattack according to the trained formation. In addition to the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the army was also equipped with other hidden weapons.

In an instant, soldiers from both sides fell one after another into pools of blood, and the stench of blood permeated the battlefield.

"Boy, who are you? How dare you come looking for trouble?" Xie Yue entered the battlefield and was immediately attacked by Bing Yun.
