Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets now.

After being summoned by Zhou Chun, the Thunder Python, Baibai, and Stone immediately launched an attack.

Baibai’s single horn atop her head flashed with lightning, and a thick silver bolt of electricity burst forth, striking at Yue Feng opposite them.

Thankfully, he had previously summoned a Defensive Dharma Artifact, and a red light surged on the fiery red shield, instantly forming a protective barrier around him that blocked the lightning attack.

This brought him back to his senses in an instant, and he quickly suppressed the shock in his heart, shouting low to propel the crimson spear towards Zhou Chun in a piercing thrust.

The spear tore through the air, and with both the spearhead and shaft surrounded by red flames, it shot towards Zhou Chun like a meteor, almost as fast as lightning!

However, Zhou Chun astonishingly neither dodged nor called forth a Magic Artifact to defend against the flaming meteor-like spear; instead, he formed hand seals and summoned the “Golden Rainbow Sword” to unleash the “Golden Rainbow Thread” Divine Skill, transforming it into a golden line that slashed towards Yue Feng.

How could he dare to be so bold!

Just as this thought flashed through Yue Feng’s mind, he saw Stone suddenly open his mouth and spit out a golden-yellow radiance that immediately enveloped the incoming spear.

In an instant, Yue Feng felt his mind tense up as his connection with his trusted Magic Artifact, the “Flying Fire Meteor Spear,” was severed by almost half, nearly losing control over the artifact!

Then he saw the spear suddenly turn and stab into the ground not far from Zhou Chun, plunging many feet into the earth in an instant.

But Zhou Chun’s Flying Sword had already struck Yue Feng’s fiery red shield, shattering the protective barrier on the spot, followed by a collision with the shield itself.

As a result of the collision, the “Golden Rainbow Sword” was sent flying, as Zhou Chun’s Cultivation Level was still a minor realm below that of Yue Feng.

But before Yue Feng could reassemble his defenses and regain control of the “Flying Fire Meteor Spear,” a strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped his mind.

His eyes involuntarily turned towards the source of danger, only to see the Thunder Python, Baibai’s single horn gathering lightning, seemingly preparing some powerful Divine Skill.

Not good!

Alarmed inside, he didn’t bother with the “Flying Fire Meteor Spear” any longer and quickly focused on channeling Mana into the fiery red shield, causing it to burst forth with another protective barrier to safeguard himself.

Feeling this was still not secure enough, he quickly summoned his Mana to condense a set of Flame Armor around his body.

Just as he completed these preparations, a terrifyingly potent silver lightning blade burst forth from the top of the Thunder Python, Baibai’s head, and in the blink of an eye, it struck the protective barrier in front of him.

Instantly, silver lightning clashed with red flames, unleashing a violent shockwave that spread around them.

Fortunately, the dueling platform itself was protected by a Formation to prevent spectator injuries; otherwise, the Cultivators of lower Cultivation Levels would surely have been collateral damage.

The outcome of the clash between lightning and flame was quickly revealed.

“`

But Yue Feng was sent flying tens of meters from the impact of their collision, not only was his fire-red shield magic artifact blasted to the ground, but his flame armor was also riddled with cracks and soon disintegrated before everyone’s eyes.

Then a flash of pain crossed his face, and he ultimately couldn’t suppress the injuries within his body as a line of crimson blood uncontrollably spilled from the corner of his mouth.

The most crucial point was that Zhou Chun’s “Golden Rainbow Sword” was circling above his head at that moment, and the figure of the Thunder Python Baibai also appeared a few meters away from him.

What this situation represented, even a Qi Refinement Realm cultivator would understand!

Thus, it was soon seen that Zhou Chun, standing with hands behind his back atop a Golden Tortoise, looked indifferently at Yue Feng and spoke, “How about it, Vice Commander Yue? Are you now familiar enough with my Divine Skills, or do you need me to demonstrate a few more?”

Hearing this, Yue Feng’s face turned red immediately, whether from the pain of his injuries or the shame it was hard to say.

But the victor is king, and the loser is the bandit; having cultivated to his current level, he was not about to make a scene under these circumstances.

After his expression went through several changes, he immediately landed on the ground, bowed to Zhou Chun, and said, “Commander’s Divine Skills are impressive; I am wholeheartedly convinced. Please show magnanimity, Commander, and forgive my previous disrespect!”

From the change in his address, it was clear that he was now subdued by Zhou Chun, and he smartly started to admit his wrongs before everyone.

Under these circumstances, Zhou Chun did not want to give the impression of being vengeful to the other newly recognized subordinates, so naturally, he could only gracefully display his generosity.

Indeed, Zhou Chun looked deeply at Yue Feng before landing in front of him with a smile, extending a hand to help him up while saying, “Vice Commander Yue is too courteous. Zhou Mou suddenly dropping in and taking your place, it’s normal for you to bear resentments in your heart, so as long as these feelings don’t break military discipline or affect team unity, I certainly won’t blame you.”

Hearing his words, Yue Feng’s spirit instantly tensed up, and he quickly responded with reverence, “I wouldn’t dare! The rule of the Heavenly Spirit Legion is that the capable rise to the top, and the weak step down. Having Divine Skills like the Commander, serving under you is my good fortune, I definitely will not harbor any second thoughts!”

“Ha-ha-ha, that’s good to hear. With Vice Commander Yue’s words, Zhou Mou is reassured.”

Zhou Chun laughed heartily and then with a smile that was not quite a smile, turned his gaze to another Deputy Commander, Cheng Zhiming, and asked, “Deputy Commander Cheng, what do you think?”

Sporting sideburns and short hair, and coming from a mid-level sect, Cheng Zhiming, upon hearing this, also gave a start and hurriedly bowed, saying, “Vice Commander Yue is correct; I too will follow the Commander’s lead, entirely at your command!”

Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn’t help but clap and laugh, “Excellent! Excellent! With two Deputy Commanders to assist, and the support of these hundreds of brothers, I believe that together we can vanquish the enemy and exorcise demons on the battlefield, achieving great feats!”

“Yes, we are willing to follow the Commander to the death!”

Yue Feng quickly took the lead in showing his loyalty by chanting the slogan.

Seeing that this troublemaker had become so docile, Cheng Zhiming and the other soldiers didn’t dare harbor any other thoughts and also shouted, “We are willing to follow the Commander to the death!”

“This Zhou Zhengchun, he really does have some abilities, no wonder he was able to kill Jiang Zhong.”

In a certain place outside the military camp, the Golden Core Stage Cultivator who had escorted Zhou Chun over, also nodded inwardly upon witnessing this scene, acknowledging Zhou Chun’s competence.
