"Yes."
The elderly soldier nodded.
His brother-in-law was a lieutenant, privy to many insider details.
"The Martial Sect..."
The soldiers sighed wistfully.
They were martial artists themselves, naturally eager for means to combat the Entering Dao practitioners.
They also held great respect for the Martial Sect.
They shattered the myth of the invincibility of the Entering Dao practitioners.
And survived the court's suppression for so long, only to be besieged by nearly a million troops.
Even forcing the Tao Suppression Department to deploy masters at the Heavenly Master level.
The strength of the Martial Sect was evident.
...
At the rear of the army.
Within a large encampment.
Twenty-three figures gathered.
These twenty-three figures, with strands of Spiritual Power swirling around, creating an invisible cage around the entire camp.
A Heavenly Master level worldly cage.
Each of the twenty-three figures were strong practitioners of the Heavenly Master level.
