The Medallion

"Okay. It's time to start choosing!" Rocky stated.

Soon, an incense stick was selected, lit, and inserted into the burner beside him.

The soldiers and spirit warriors that were standing on the battlefield looked at each other, unsure of which to choose. Of course, they were afraid of dying, but they didn't want to be deserters because what Rocky had said was true. If their relatives and friends were killed by the spiritual race after they fled, then guilt would consume them for the rest of their days. It didn't seem worth it.

As the soldiers hesitated, Maxwell stepped forward and shouted, "Everyone, we can't be deserters. If we run away now, how can we be strong in the future? How can we explain this to our parents, brothers, and sisters? We joined this army and we have been prepared for the possibility of death on the battlefield. Right now, the Tiger Whisker Pass is faced with great peril, and we have no reason to flee from it. We have followed Commander Wang for a long time, and he has never treated us badly. In fact, he often shows great concern towards us. If we become deserters, how will we live with ourselves?" There was a pause as he looked into the faces of the soldiers.

"We're not deserters! We will guard the Tiger Whisker Pass!" Maxwell continued, yelling at the top of his lungs and thrusting his fist into the air.

Multitudes responded with fervor. Before long, all the soldiers were shouting in unison, and the morale was increased.

That was what Rocky had wanted to see the whole time. However, Maxwell's assistance was beyond his expectations. It seemed that he hadn't wasted his time helping Maxwell.

The most surprise was displayed from Tucker. He hadn't expected anything, let alone Rocky's and Maxwell's words to improve the low morale of his army. Despite leading the army for so many years, he had rarely seen a scene like this.

"Commander Wang, the spiritual race's army will attack within three days. That's all the time we have to prepare. I want to temporarily replace you so that I can train the soldiers," Rocky said to Tucker.

"Basil, do you really have the confidence it takes to defeat our enemy?" Tucker asked, looking at Rocky. At this point, he didn't care about losing face. As long as Rocky could protect the Tiger Whisker Pass, he would do anything. He would even treat Rocky as his ancestor.

"Of course. Why else would I come back?" Rocky answered while certainty swam in his eyes.
