Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1588 A Little Surprise

Before the spiritual race could react, the soldiers at the front of the Swimming Army swiftly turnedaround and rushed towards the rear of the army. At the same time, the soldiers at the rearunleashed their spears and marched forward to stab the enemies. Their army was like a savagedragon that pierced through everything that stood its way. As they clashed with the vanguardtroops of the spiritual race, blood splashed into the air, and hundreds of corpses instantly fell ontothe ground.

As the Swimming Army continued to attack flexibly, the vanguard troops of the spiritual race lostabout a thousand soldiers in less than an hour. On the other hand, the Swimming Army only lostabout a hundred soldiers.

Seeing this unfavorable situation, Stuart, the deputy commander of the spiritual race, immediatelyordered his army to retreat so that they could regroup.

"You! Do you dare fight me alone?" Stuart instantly thought of challenging the leader of the enemyarmy in a one-on-one battle so that he could cut his team's losses.

Deputy Commander Ma was at the primary stage of the Spiritual Infant. Although he was not asstrong as Stuart, he would not refuse a challenge from an enemy commander. Therefore, he quicklybrandished his spear and shouted, "My pleasure!"

The next moment, Stuart and Deputy Commander Ma rushed towards each other and went all out.They both exuded a tremendous aura as soon as they clashed with each other. As their weaponscollided, sparks flashed in all directions. They also displayed all kinds of spiritual skills one afteranother, creating a wave of energy that spread within the area.

Unfortunately, Deputy Commander Ma's strength was a little weaker than Stuart. Hence, after fiveminutes of exchanging blows, he was not able to dodge Stuart's ax that cut through his rightshoulder. Blood immediately gushed out as Deputy Commander Ma's movements were put to ahalt.

Seeing this, Stuart took the opportunity to finish his enemy with one last attack. However, at thismoment, a figure suddenly swooped down from the sky, and a violent wave of spiritual power burstout, instantly knocking away Stuart's mighty ax. Inmediately after, the figure carried DeputyCommander Ma back into the Swimming Army.

This person was none other than Rocky.

"Basil! Thank you for saving me. I owe you one!" Deputy Commander Ma could not help but thankRocky while his face was still ghastly pale.

"Somebody, please help Deputy Commander Ma heal his wounds. I have to go and take care of therest.” Then, Rocky called for two soldiers to assist Deputy Commander Ma and take him back intothe city. After that, he quickly strode and landed in front of the spiritual race's army, staring coldly atStuart.

"Humph! Who the hell are you? How dare you stand in my way?" Stuart glared at Rocky andshouted in contempt.

"Let me warn you. Two hours later, more than half of your soldiers will either be killed or seriouslyinjured. So, you'd better think of a good reason already once you report to your commander!"Rocky said provokingly.

"I hate arrogant brats like you the most! How are you going to do that with just three thousandsoldiers? Your confidence is baseless!" Stuart retorted as he got infuriated by Rocky's taunts

"Well, don't say I didn't warn you," Rocky replied with a defiant sneer.

"Go and kill them all! I don't have time to play with pathetic losers!" Stuart commanded firmly.

With this, the vanguard troops of the spiritual race shouted at the same time and charged with highmorale.

"Listen! If you want to defeat them, follow me! There is no retreating in this army, is thatunderstood?" Rocky roared in a clear and uplifting voice.

"Yes, sir" The soldiers shouted in unison and revealed a determined expression on their faces."Now! Attack!" Rocky unsheathed his Mystical Dragon Sword and shouted at the top of his lungs ashe stood in front of the Swimming Army. As they charged towards the troops of the spiritual race,he personally led them and rushed forth without any hint of fear.

At the same time, he chanted a skill that was suitable for their current formation. Immediately after,the entire army was enveloped by a water shield. When they clashed against the enemy, they werenot hurt by any weapons within a short time.

Under Rocky's leadership, the Swimming Army charged back and forth through the formation of thespiritual race army with unstoppable momentum. With the protection of the water shield, theyfearlessly went all out and took down over a thousand soldiers within five minutes.

As Stuart commanded from the rear side of his army, he failed to notice the increasing loss of hisvanguard troops in time.

Consequently, an hour later, the casualties of the spiritual race army had already reached threethousand.

At this point, the vanguard troops were already routed, instantly shaking their previously highmorale. Soon enough, they were not able to maintain their formation and were forced to scatter."How the hell did this happen?" Only then did Stuart realize that his army had already lost morethan three thousand soldiers in just an hour. Remembering what Rocky said before their battlebegan, he fumed in anger.

At the same time, Rocky continued to lead his troops all the way to the rear side of the spiritual racearmy and headed straight for Stuart's position.

"Conceited bastard! Go to hell!” Stuart was clearly exasperated by the turn of events. Losing histemper, he wielded his ax and swung it towards Rocky.

"Thousand-star Swordsmanship!" Rocky intended to end the fight as fast as he could. Thus, heunleashed a high-level spiritual skill the first chance he got.

In an instant, the starry lights filled the air and rapidly gathered towards Stuart. In a flash, the sharpsword aura surged like blazing meteors.

Before Stuart could even react, he was hit by Rocky's ferocious sword aura. His clothes were rippedoff and his skin was torn open. Just a moment later, he looked as if he was blatantly tortured andwas put in a huge mess.

However, since Stuart was a member of the spiritual race, his body was very sturdy. Even though hewas directly hit by Rocky's Thousand-star Swordsmanship, the injuries he acquired wasn't fatal."Damn it! Everyone, retreat!" Stuart was in disbelief that a mere human would be so powerful thathe found it very risky to continue fighting him. Thus, he quickly ordered his remaining soldiers toretreat right away.

Upon seeing that the spiritual race army had started to retreat, the warriors guarding the TigerWhisker Pass cheered loudly. They did not expect that they could easily win such a crucial battle.Moreover, they were able to deal a huge blow upon the enemy army.

However, Rocky didn't feel very happy about the outcome. He knew that they were just able todefeat their enemies because they had underestimated their abilities. Once they came back andtook serious actions, they might still be in trouble.

After the battle, Rocky led the army back to the city and immediately ordered someone to count theexact number of casualties.

Upon counting, it was reported that only a hundred soldiers from the Swimming Army were killedand about three hundred were injured. This was considered a great win because it was much lesserthan the losses of the spiritual race army.

"Basil, well done! Thanks to your heroic deeds, it seems that we have successfully defended theTiger Whisker Pass!" Tucker said excitedly the moment he saw Basil.

"Well, it's still too early to celebrate. I'm sure that there are more talented soldiers in the spiritualrace, and we should assume that the next battle would not be that easy. For now, please ask all thesoldiers to take their time to rest and replenish their strength. We need them at their best conditiononce the next battle came.” After saying that, Rocky hurriedly left.

"Commander Wang, has Basil ever led a huge number of soldiers into battle before?" DeputyCommander Ma, who had just treated his wounds, asked Tucker as he stared at Rocky's recedingfigure.

"Well, the only time I know is when he helped the patrol troops escape from the army of spiritualbeasts. However, at this point, it doesn't really matter whether he had done it many times or not. I'mafraid to say this but it looks like the fate of the Tiger Whisker Pass is in his hands now." It was alsoTucker's first time personally witnessing Rocky's leadership on the battlefield, and he was shockedand amazed at the same time. Right now, the doubts in his heart had already turned into completetrust.

"Anyway, if we can successfully defend the Tiger Whisker Pass, you must be surely promoted. Bythen, please don't forget about me.” Deputy Commander Ma let out a smile as he took theopportunity to flatter Tucker.

"Don't worry. Of course, I will remember all your services. But before we think of that, we mustensure to keep the Tiger Whisker Pass safe from the intruders!" Although Tucker wanted to beoptimistic, he also made sure that his mindset was correct. After all, this was just the first battle, andeverything would only get harder from this point.

Then, when Rocky returned to his residence, he directly entered the Magic Spiritual Space.

Since he was worried that the spiritual race might make use of spiritual beasts the next time theymet on the battlefield, he thought of preparing a little surprise for the enemies as well.
