Chapter 159: Fredrinn Versus Markelle
Lester fought fiercely against the two, but he was slowly losing ground as the battle continued.
Fire Spear General was the main combatant, while Death Arrow General provided support with his timely arrow shooting.
'Dammit! This old man's defense is too strong! I can't even go through him!' Lester wanted to take down the archer first, but the old man held him back. He was like a tough nail, difficult to pull out.
Meanwhile, on another part of the battlefield, Fredrinn was also facing his own troubles. In front of him was the rumored army commander of the Blue Mountain Army, Markelle Duskhill.
At this moment, this powerful martial practitioner was staring at him cold piercing gaze. "You must be Fredrinn…"
"And you must be Markelle Duskhill. You don't look like much." Fredrinn nonchalantly said.
Markelle's face stiffened as rage welled up in his heart. "Your arrogance knows no bounds." He snorted.
"Enough talking. Show me what you got! Let me see how powerful the so-called half-step Void Tempering powerhouse is!" Fredrinn equipped his Lithinum Shield.
Without saying another word, Markelle pulled out his treasured sword and appeared before him in just the blink of an eye. With a quick swipe, he struck down hard while unleashing a transcendent-rank sword technique.
Fredrinn's face turned serious when he sensed the power behind his attack. He lifted his Lithinum Shield to block it.
When Markelle's sword struck his shield, Fredrinn felt an overwhelming force that almost pushed him off the ground.
With a grunt, he pushed his shield and swung his guandao in a downward cut.
Markelle easily avoided this. 'This guy's isn't that fast or strong, but his defense is even better than that old man.' This was what he discovered after that clash with Fredrinn.
(He is referring to Fire Spear General in the sentence above.)
Fredrinn was no longer as relaxed as he was earlier. He noticed that there was a small dent on the surface of the Lithinum Shield. This was the first time it happened since he got it from the system. If it weren't for the Armor of Eternal Strength taking the brunt of the damage, he would have already been seriously injured in that single exchange.
This was the true power of someone at the half step of the Void Tempering realm!
'I just need to hold back this guy. As long as we destroy his army, he will be nothing!' Fredrinn tightly held his shield.
"Come! Attack me with all that you've got!" Fredrinn's heroic voice echoed in all directions, increasing the morale of the Star Wind Kingdom's troops.
The soldiers who came with him felt an invisible force increasing their power and physical abilities. Despite being surrounded by countless enemies, they managed to fend them off with their newfound strength!
Fredrinn's presence brought them an unprecedented level of confidence. As long as he was there, they will never be defeated!
Empowered by Fredrinn's buffs, the five-hundred-man army tore through the enemy lines, opening a huge gap in their seemingly formidable formation.
Seeing this, Markelle furrowed his eyebrows. He finally realized why Fredrinn managed to conquer two key locations. Turns out that it was because of his soldiers. He wanted to help his troops, but Fredrinn prevented him from advancing further.
"You have to go through me first!"
"Pesky fly! Die!" Markelle's sword turned into a blur as he executed another transcendent sword technique.
Numerous sword phantoms appeared and threatened to turn Fredrinn into a sieve.
"That won't be enough to destroy me!" Fredrinn shouted as he performed a series of hand seals.
In just half a second, a translucent spherical barrier enveloped him.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The sword phantoms punctured the ground and caused massive cracks to appear!
When the clouds of dust subsided, Fredrinn's figure could be seen. His shield had more dents and his armor was covered in dust and dirt. However, he remained standing ever so arrogantly as if the attack did no damage to him.
"Is that all you've got? I'm so disappointed." Fredrinn muttered with a calm look. However, he was actually screaming inside. Half of his Qi has already been depleted after releasing that defensive technique.

Markelle narrowed his eyes. He used all his power in that attack, but it only left a few dents on the enemy's shield. 'Is that shield a legendary relic?' His eyes gleamed with desire the more he thought about this. If he got hold of that shield, he would be unstoppable on the battlefield!
A moment later, they once again clashed.
***
Cain could see Fredrinn fighting with the enemy's commander. Even though he was quite far from them, the shockwaves of their clash still reached his location. 'What fearsome power they both have!'
Suddenly, he saw an enemy cavalry charging at him.
Cain snorted and effortlessly parried the enemy's spear. He then swung his sword which cut the cavalry rider in half!
After dealing with that stray cavalry soldier, Cain raised his sword and shouted. "Onwards! We need to support the general! Push your way through!"
They were still affected by the buffs provided by Fredrinn's Crown of Eternal Glory. Furthermore, the enemies were also affected by the terrify debuff of the Flame Dragon Crescent Blade.
Under the leadership of Cain, the Black Flame Heavy Cavalry Divison and the rest of the Mad Bear Corps gradually overpowered the enemy's defensive formation.
They were like a bunch of tanks mowing through the battlefield.
In the midst of this gruesome battle, Olivia, Alice, and Freya were quietly honing their skills. They were still bottom-level warriors in this grand battle, but unlike before, they were no longer helpless.
There were also Core Formation experts protecting them, ensuring that no fatal injuries would be inflicted upon them.
Among the Core Formation martial practitioners was the princess who was currently covered in full battle armor. With her face fully covered, no one managed to recognize her identity.
'Is there no end to this?' She complained in her heart, but the sight of that lofty figure blocking the enemy's strongest expert made her feel invigorated.
