The following day at noon, after a full day of rest, Li Ce was clearly in much better shape. During the previous battle, he had also wisely avoided pushing himself into a state of depleted strength.
After all, Li Ce knew very well that before he was a True Word Master, he was the commander of the border defense forces!
Analyzing the battle situation and commanding troops in combat were both higher priorities for him.
Of course, he could not leave the stage early because of severely depleted True Word power.
Zhou Xu approved of Li Ce's way of thinking.
Indeed, commanding troops and wielding True Word Spells were two separate professions. A person's time and energy were limited, making it impossible to attend to both sides equally.
Take Li Ce, for example. With Dual Four-star Intelligence and Command, there was no doubt about his talent as a military commander.
The reason Zhou Xu had previously granted them the True Words related to Skeleton Soldiers was so that they could enrich their respective tactical applications and raise their own troops' combat strength while commanding battles.
At the same time, this was because the scale of battles had indeed been small in the early days. A True Word Master could raise two or three hundred Skeleton Soldiers with a lift of his hand, which was enough to alter the course of a battle to a certain extent.
But now, as powerful forces continued to emerge, the enemies grew stronger and the scale of warfare grew ever larger. The benefits produced by those two or three hundred Skeleton Soldiers had begun to diminish.
Under these circumstances, if they abandoned their duties as commanders and buried themselves in cultivation every day, that would undoubtedly be putting the cart before the horse.
But that
