While Jared was exuding an indomitable aura, that was all there was to it. No one believed Jared could halt the
advancement of the army alone.
In response to seeing that, Yuven turned to Ivasha, ordering, “We must escort Mr. Chance into the city right now!”
Ivasha nodded and commanded their army, who had been waiting to strike, to charge out of the city gates.
Quinley and the others wished to join the battle, but Yuven stopped them. If anything happens to them, Mr. Chance
won’t ever forgive me! After all, they’re all his women, the wives of Dragon Sect’s leader. I can’t possibly allow
them to risk their lives:
Ivasha personally led the army outside. Soon, they arrived beside Jared.
“What are you doing, Jared? Why aren’t you returning?” Rage was burning in Ivasha’s eyes. I don’t understand why

“Why should I return? Don’t you want to revel in the butchering of our enemies?” Jared grinned at Ivasha.
“Of course I do! However, we don’t have enough men or power to face them. How are we supposed to win in a
direct battle? Right now, all we can do is conserve our strength and bide time for the reinforcement to arrive!” said
Ivasha.
“Who says we can’t win because we have fewer soldiers?” Jared stared at Ivasha impishly. “Inform the warriors to
prepare for war. We’ll teach Norwal City that Imperial Beast City’s soldiers aren’t to be trifled with.”
“You…” Seeing that Jared insisted on standing his ground, Ivasha had no other choice but to face her army.
“Everyone, listen up! Ready your weapons! We’re about to clash against our enemies!”
A little over a thousand troops drew their weapons with an icy gaze. There was no fear to be found in their eyes,
only murderous intent. They knew that, at that point, it was meaningless to be afraid.
The only thing they could do was to give it their all in the upcoming battle. Lucian was excited when he saw his
opposition only had a thousand soldiers. Thus, he roared, “Charge!”
Jared gazed at Lucian’s advancing troops, muttering something. Just as his foes were only a hundred meters away
from the city, Jared suddenly performed a hand gesture. Following that, the Power of Dragons burst forth from his
chest.
A golden light sparkled behind Jared, making him appear like an immortal. Following the sparkling golden light, an
invisible wave of energy enveloped the space before Jared.
Rumble…
At that moment, everyone was bewildered to witness the countless beams of light erupting from the earth. Those
beams then connected to each other at the speed of light to create a mysterious light wall.
The light wall then rapidly enclosed Norwal City’s army, trapping them completely.

“It’s an arcane array! I had a feeling there was one installed in front of Imperial Beast City.” Remus frowned.
“Calm the men and order them to press forward. This is nothing but a defensive arcane array. It can’t hurt us!”
commanded Lucian loudly.
He believed the only arcane array outside of Imperial Beast City was a harmless defensive arcane array. After all, it
would be difficult for anyone to establish a Death Trap Formation at that scale.
Moreover, array masters were rare in the Ethereal Realm. If one wished to install such a large-scale Death Trap
Formation, one would need an obscene amount of resources and spirit coins. Even Norwal City couldn’t afford
something like that, much less Imperial Beast City.
Thus, Lucian was confident the arcane array standing before his army must be a purely defensive one.
The light wall began to morph continuously, as though the entire space was being cleaved by it.
