(Guiying POV)
Things were beginning to look so much better that I even allowed myself to have a sense of hope.
With my senior sisters' assistance, we have managed to stop the Dong army's advance temporarily while our soldiers worked hard on culling the numbers that were present in front of them.
Though it might look like we can actually win this, I know for a fact that my senior sisters were mortals too, even they can grow tired and sluggish from participating in this fight long enough.
There were thoughts of having our Practitioners bolster our numbers with summoned elementals, but since those can be easily controlled by the opposing force's Practitioners if they possess someone strong enough, the idea was shot down quickly.
With everyone committed to the fight, it was now a do or die scenario. No point in us keeping reserves when the entire might of their army now bears down upon us.
