More than two hundred arrows whistled through the sky and fell down like rain .

Swish~ Swish~…

Because the people running at the front were peasants in rags carrying the ladders and ropes; they were not able to defend themselves from the arrows . Almost half of the arrows. .h.i.t their target, harvesting numerous lives at one time . The vanguard from the enemy side continued to fall down to never stand up again .

The death of these peasants didn't shake Cole's army . They had more than thousands of such people running towards the wall and a hundred was only a small part .  

Not to mention that behind them the 2000 soldiers of Jordan's regular army that were closely following them . They wouldn't just let the archers on the wall to continue shooting . In response, the archers on the ground side would shoot back so that the vanguard could place the ladders onto the wall quickly .

The commander of Jordan's army shouted out for the soldiers to rush forward . Arnet and his fellow sect brother were also following closely behind them .

Advertis.e.m.e.ntIf the momentum of the charge was broken the losses would be more serious . They had begun the a.s.sault and the only option was to rush to the walls . They had to set up ladders and climb all the way up . The role of archers would be minimized as soon as the soldiers reached the wall .

However, the enemy was able to pa.s.s and reach the foot of Dorbank City . The soldiers began to put the ladders

It took some time but some ladders were finally erected onto the walls . These ladders had barbs on one side so that they could attach themselves to the walls with a good grip making it difficult for their enemies at the top to push it back .

"Block them! Don't let them get on the wall . " Captain Aiden commanded three hundred soldiers on the wall and ordered them to greet the enemy soldiers that had come to siege them .

The sound of arrows echoed as if the main music theme of the battlefield .

The archers did their best but they weren't very effective in close range . As a result, many enemy soldiers were able to climb up .

Once the enemy soldiers reached the wall and turned the battle from long range to melee combat the role of archers would be reduced tremendously .

The most useful part the archers played in the battles was in the initial stage . However, that initial stage was a relatively short amount of time .

A smile appeared on Cole's face as he watched the soldiers climb up the ladders . As long as the soldiers positioned themselves on top of the walls than half of the war would be won .

"Where are those three houses that you allied with, Cole? They are still not here . " Joseph questioned him from behind .

"…I don't know . The messenger that I sent has still not come back . And no words from our spies are being sent back since yesterday . It's very odd . I believe those idiots have some brains and they are not going to come and take part in this war after all . "

"Oh, do you think they know about your plan . "

"I…doubt that but who knows . But they are going to die anyway whether they come here or not .   After the war, they will be the first people that I will eradicate from this world . " Cole Jordan did not know until now that Lord Damon, Cameron, and Hestia have already died in the hands of a third party .

Cole continued "Not that we need them now if the people inside the city do their work properly . "

Everyone's ears were filled with mournful screams and loud battle cries .

Both the attackers and the defenders were giving the battle everything they got . It was either you die or I die .

As time went on, more and more enemies had gotten onto the walls of the City walls .

It was not a good situation for Dorbank City; there were 3 times more enemies than the Dorbank city soldiers .

…

Inside the manor of Master Clayton, there were people waiting for someone in the main hall .

When Master Clayton saw Alex come in, he said, "Alex, it's late enough . I think now is the time to act . "

Alex nodded .

He turned around and saw a crowd waiting for his instructions . "The plan is the same as I had explained to you before, only that we need to fight fewer enemies now . We don't need to worry about Damon, Hestia and Cameron's family as it has already been dealt with yesterday . "

"They have been dealt with? Did you . . " Julie asked him in surprise .

"Yes Aunt Julie, I had gone outside for two days specifically to deal with them . My subordinates were there with me so it was easy . Their villages are now being controlled by my men . The private armies of those three family's have also surrendered to me and now they only listen to my orders . I have ordered them to take back the weakly guarded Pearl village back after Cole Jordan and his men leave for the city . They should have reached there by now . "

"Alex, how did you defeat those three Dantian Formation Realm cultivators and that in just two days . Did you also form your Dantian" Jack couldn't help but ask? The speed at which Alex is progressing in his cultivation is already heaven-defying in their eyes . Particularly, Hank and Tom, both of them were feeling frustrated as they couldn't keep up with Alex in cultivation these days, even when they are a year older than him and work equally hard to cultivate .  

"No, I am still a 9th stage Body Tempering Realm cultivator . As for those Early-Stage Dantian Formation Realm Cultivators, I defeated them mostly because they underestimated my cultivation level and strength and also because I took them by surprise as they let their guard down . I even beheaded Lord Hestia, that fatso in his sleep . I did not let them use their Martial art skills and finished the battle as quickly as possible . " Alex then went on to explain them in detail about the fight .
