"Wherever righteousness leads, through life and death we follow! Let Heaven bear witness, let the white horse stand proof!"
These sixteen words were undoubtedly the nightmare of every enemy of the White Horse Volunteers!
At this very moment, a fierce battle was underway deep within the forest. One side consisted of the White Horse Volunteers led by Zhao Yun. There were not many of them—fewer than a hundred, Zhao Yun included. The other side was a group dressed in strange attire. Some wore bizarre full-body armor and carried greatswords, some wore black stealth suits, while others wore peculiar robes... That was right: they were students from Western God Academy.
This group of Western God Academy students had been sent to rescue Justin. Although communications were unreliable in this Third Epoch world, the death notifications from the Headmaster were accurate and timely. Chihuahua and Esna, stationed at the main camp and discussing how to gain more authority within the allied forces, suddenly received a string of point notifications and immediately realized that Justin had fallen into a trap. However, they did not panic. Only after sending people to investigate the movements of Eastern Victory's key personnel and finding nothing unusual did they dispatch troops for the rescue.
Yet just as they sent people to rescue Justin, a unit of White Horse Volunteers led by Zhao Yun had already set off in pursuit of suspicious individuals. Since the White Horse Volunteers were cavalry, traveling mountain paths overnight was not particularly fast, and they had been unable to catch up with those suspicious people. But before long, rather than catching their targets, Zhao Yun and his men were "caught up to" instead. Those who caught up with Zhao Yun were precisely the Western God Academy members on their way to rescue Justin.
