The Medallion

Originally, it would've taken Tucker and his army two days to get back to the Tiger Whisker Pass. However, by passing through a dug tunnel, they managed to reach their destination in half the time. There, they rendezvoused with the remaining two thousand guards.

Although they had retaken the Tiger Whisker Pass, there was no time to relax. Knowing the spiritual race was going to launch a counterattack at any given moment, Tucker hurriedly deployed his defense.

It took him a day to get his troops in position. By that time, the spy Tucker sent forwarded some information that the army of the spiritual race was three miles away. According to the spy, it seemed that their enemy didn't plan on resting on the way there.

"Hasn't Spiritual King Basil come back yet?" Tucker asked Deputy Commander Ma as soon as he heard the news.

"Not yet." Deputy Commander Ma shook his head.

"Did something bad happen to him and his army?" Tucker looked nervous. He was worried that he wasn't strong enough to lead his soldiers to triumph over the incoming enemy. In his eyes, Rocky was their only hope.

"I don't think so. Spiritual King Basil is a smart and resourceful man. He'd be able to get himself out of any kind of danger. Besides, he has an army of a thousand soldiers. If they didn't take the shortcut, they should arrive at the same time as the army of the spiritual race," Deputy Commander Ma concluded upon analyzing the situation.

"I hope he gets here in time. Otherwise, I'm afraid we won't be able to guard the Tiger Whisker Pass," Tucker murmured.

Unbeknownst to Tucker, Rocky and his army were not far from them. However, Rocky did not intend to return to the Tiger Whisker Pass just yet; he still needed this army to complete another task.

"Maxwell," Rocky called.

"What can I do for you?" Maxwell asked. Judging from Rocky's grave expression, he could tell that he was about to tell him something important.

the spiritual race will arrive at the Tiger Whisker Pass soon. If I'm not mistaken, they don't plan on stopping to rest. Instead, they'll launch their attack on the Tiger Whisker Pass as soon as possible, knowing Commander Wang and his men haven't had the time to settle down yet." Rocky paused. Then, with a glint in his eye, he continued, "If
