The border battlefield was only a general name for the area formed due to the continuous wars among the three races, and it was divided into several small parts.
Among the three races, the Shura Race occupied the largest area of the border battlefield, while the rest was divided between the spiritual race and the human race. However, the spiritual race still had a slight upper hand, which meant that the human race was the most disadvantaged one on the battlefield.
Since the Shura Race actually manipulated the situation, they were able to sow dissension between the spiritual race and the human race. Hence, all year round, the two races were at each other's throats, fighting to the death. Meanwhile, the Shura Race was just watching on the sideline, reigning supreme over the entire border battlefield.
In other words, the human race was in a very bad situation, and if they wanted to survive on the border battlefield, they would need to strengthen both their offense and defense.
Presently, the Di Clan was the one who led the human army to stand their ground against the invasion of the spiritual race on the border battlefield. Although the Di Clan had actually called upon all the human clans in the Ethereal Region to join the war, only a few of them had responded and deployed their men.
The Sky-suppressing School had sent eight of their strongest disciples, including Rocky, to the frontline, which was rare but not hard to understand.
At the point, the war at the border had already entered an extremely heated stage. The spiritual race and the human race had gone all out to bring each other down, but the spiritual race still had the overall advantage.
If the human race continued to be overpowered, it would be bad for all the clans that resided in the Ethereal Region.
Since the Sky-suppressing Mansion was a force that came from generations with military service, they had a strong sense of chivalry and desire to protect their home.
The school was relatively far away from the border battlefield, so it took the disciples three days and three nights to arrive at their destination.
"The eight of you will be divided into four groups and work in pairs. After you arrive at your posts, the Pass-guarding Commanders will arrange your positions, as well as your accommodation. Although you are disciples of the Sky-suppressing School and are relatively free to do what you want, you still have to abide by the laws and regulations of the entire army on the battlefield," Uriel, the elder who was in charge of the team, briefly explained.
"Elder Uriel, how are the pairs decided?" Eunice asked as soon as she heard the instructions.
"Well, it's up to you. You can choose for yourselves!" Uriel replied indifferently.
"I want to be in the same group as Basil!" Eunice and Carla shouted at the same time.
Hearing that, Moore and the other disciples looked at Rocky with strange expressions on their faces, wondering why the two beautiful ladies would compete to such an extent just to be his partner.
At the same time, Eunice and Carla stared at each other. It was pretty obvious from the look in their eyes that they were filled with hostility.
Even Rocky couldn't help but shake his head and let out a bitter smile.
"If you can't decide for yourselves, I think Eunice and Basil would be a better pair since they're both from the Di Clan. It means that they could cooperate well. Carla, you can team up with Moore instead. I believe that you are also going to make major achievements if you work together." Uriel thought for a moment and came up with a decision to avoid further squabble.
Since Uriel already decided, Carla couldn't object anymore. But of course, it was pretty obvious from her delicate face that she was disappointed with the outcome.
"Soon enough, we will reach the Tiger Whisker Pass. Basil and Eunice, you can go and work in that area," Uriel remarked.
"Okay, sir." Rocky and Eunice nodded at the same time.
About two hours later, the spiritual beasts carrying the team had finally descended in the Tiger Whisker Pass.
Since the commander there received the news in advance about the disciples that would join them, he sent the deputy commander to receive them.
"Greetings! I'm Bertram Fei, the deputy commander of the Tiger Whisker Pass. Thank you for coming all the way here. Please follow me so that you could rest first," Bertram Fei said respectfully. They were instantly given special treatment since they were from the Sky-suppressing School, and everyone knew that their strength and skills are undoubtedly powerful. Because the school sent such capable disciples to provide assistance, it was only natural for Bertram Fei to try his hardest to be on their good side.
