Wilbur and Michael''s gazes met from either side of the border. They were the strongest fighters and thus faced each other.


    Neither of them was going to let the other party kill their own men.


    One foul move and a huge war was going to break out between both sides.


    A few minutester, both sides gathered before the border.


    The holy warriors'' cross swords all lit up with golden spirit mes.


    A terrifying pressure spread out, making the air ring with a sharp whistle.


    Karl let out a cry, an ice sword appearing in his grasp that he pointed at the holy warriors.


    "Take down the unholy spawns in the name of the Holy Illuminati Lord!"


    The holy warriors chanted the words, charging at Karl.


    Karl let out a cry,unching into a fierce battle against all nine holy warriors at once.


    The holy warriors were absolutely ruthless, ganging up against Karl and swinging their swords at him sharply.


    Karl met their attacks with an ashen expression, deflecting their swords with his own while counter-attacking whenever he could.


    He was certainly pulling the work of going against nine men on his own, and the battle steadily grew with tension.


    At the same time, both church militias charged towards each other and a fierce battle broke out.


    Their weapons shed and nged, letting off countless sparks.


    Cameron and Dawson led the way into the battlefield, wielding their weapons with a fierce roar.


    Wilbur looked at the battlefield silently.


    Michael smiled smugly as if he had the win in the bag.


    The truth was that the Holy Illuminati church militia did have the upper hand in terms of skill.


    It was only because of Cameron and Dawson that the Fire Dragon God church militia could still hold their own.


    Yet as the battle went on, the casualties on both sides grew.


    The air rang with howls and roars of fury, blood staining the ground red.


    Eventually, the nine holy warriors let out a roar in unison. They lit up with spirit mes, their cross swords burning brightly as well and they maximized their spiritual energy tounch a ruthless attack against Karl.


    All nine cross swords burned brightly with rolling symbols, shing wildly toward Karl.


    Feeling the pressure, Karl let out an enraged roar.


    "Under the Frosty Heavens!"


    A pair of ice-cold wings sprouted out of Karl''s back, making the temperature around him drop at an rming rate.


    His ice sword lit up with icy mes, letting off a terrifying chill as he swung it towards the holy warriors.


    The holy warriors lost gusto immediately, seeing as none of them were actually at the Sanctuary level.


    Cameron jumped in on one of the fights, saving a fellow church militia member and killing the knight who tried to kill him.


    Dawson brandished his spear, stabbing left and right amidst the sea of church militia knights as he roared loudly.


    The battle continued to grow with intensity.


    Michael''s expression began to shift as time passed.


    He had not expected these puny me Dragon Lord believers to be such good fighters.


    "The glory of our church shall never be dimmed!" Michael shouted.


    The holy warriors let out a cry, charging towards Karl with all their might.


    Karl swung his sword against one of the holy warriors, leaving a deep crack in his armor. A frightful chill seeped into the warrior''s body, draining his face of color at


    once.


    Yet he took a risk and grabbed the ice sword, swinging his cross sword towards Karl''s neck.


    The other holy warriors took the chance to shoot spiritual mes out of their cross swords, stabbing at various parts of Karl''s body.
