After the Fourth Prince and Fifth Prince were killed, the only force in the entire south that could stop the White Lotus Army from marching north was the Southern Legion.
The Southern Legion was worthy of being a second-tier legion of the Sun Moon Empire. A single legion, working with several thousand ordinary legion soldiers, had truly stopped the White Lotus Sect from expanding north.
What they relied on was naturally all kinds of Soul Tools.
