Beginning of the war

Fu Xuefeng and the others left their half-finished dinner and quickly followed him to confront the enemy.

As they moved towards the east wall, Bai Zemin could not help but notice some tension in the air, and when he looked back he saw that some of his subordinates had dark faces.

He turned his face to the front and as he calmly walked forward inquired, "Scared?"

"Scared...?" Nangong Yi muttered upon hearing Bai Zemin's question. 

Nangong Lingxin forced a smile and said with some bitterness, "Bai Zemin, it's not that we are scared, but it's just that after fighting for months with goblins you come to respect them a little. Among them, there are some really powerful soul evolvers, and their numbers... Their numbers just don't make any sense. Even Third Order soul evolvers like us could end up dying at the hands of apparently endless seas of Unclassified goblins."

"Respect? For the goblins?" Bai Zemin snorted.
