A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 256 – Emperor's Order
Chang Song Zhu's daughter then decided to send an envoy to the king's city to inform the emperor of everything. About the arrival of Sung Han and Sung Hwa and the bad possibility.
In addition to sending an envoy, he also ordered his generals and officers to train the ranks of soldiers even more strictly. Creating various kinds of tactics, siege lines or pendam forces. All this was done to add to the war skills of the soldiers.
For the warriors themselves, they have done self-training without being told to first. Meditate in each room, fight with friends, or practice by hunting animals in the forest.
But of all that, the most astounding and amazing was the training of the five second-generation Silat World Kings. This practice sometimes caught the attention of warriors as well as soldiers. So not infrequently many who watch secretly.
For them not, the training they did was too dangerous and if they did not remember they were a high-level swordsman, it was unlikely that anyone would dare to do such a great exercise.
Nie Chi, the Iron Stick Swordsman, practiced breathing techniques in a strange way. He stuck his iron stick into the ceiling of the cave, then his legs coiled up to the stick and made his body hang in an inverted position. In addition to meditating, he must also focus on maintaining balance and the strength of the stick in order to continue to stick. Once it failed and the stick fell, its head could be crushed considering that the ceiling height was ten meters.
Khuang Peng the Blood Sword Swordsman, trained his hand muscle strength and sword sharpness in a way beyond reason. Every day he jumped from the top of the cliff and stuck the sword into the cliff. If his body is restrained, then he will go back up again and repeat his actions. He considered the exercise to be successful if one jumped with a sword stuck on the cliff wall, not stopping at all and creating a straight line from the top to the bottom.
Still near the cliff of Khuang Peng, Gu Ren was even more formidable. Even this one had to be escorted by some Black Dragon members who were worried about his safety during the training.
The reason is, this middle-aged man who has the science of wind at the same time focusing on the science of lightening the body, training his nurse in a way like people want to kill themselves. Jumping from the top of the cliff, then with both fans scrambled over, he tried to descend the cliff using only his feet. His hands only served as a counterweight. Similarly with riding. He did that over and over again.
For the husband and wife surnamed Sung, their training was fairly normal and simple. But actually, in the eyes of experts, their training is the most dangerous and like a bored person living.
The two of them every day do cohesiveness training, not by fighting swords or silat, but fighting magic. The two sat cross-legged at a distance of five meters. With both hands raised forward, then shoot a powerful air at each other.
Later, the magic air will meet and quarrel. This is the dangerous part. All warriors know if they are fighting with deep energy or even the magic air, they should not be disturbed at all or one of them is wretched maybe even the bully who is wretched.
Same with this couple. If only one of them is careless and careless just a little, it does not rule out the possibility of being squeezed by his own energy plus the power of a partner and ending up dead. Even they also change the elements in the magic air. Sometimes it's hot, sometimes it's cold.
To end the exercise, they had to cut back on air shots slowly, simultaneously or one of them would be killed. Even better, all of it is done without sound, only through eye codes and lip movements. It was a crazy compact exercise.
Thus until several days or even weeks, the situation has not changed at all. They were waiting for orders from the emperor and in that time, were focusing on increasing the power.

"His Majesty the emperor!"
Hearing the cry followed by the bell being smashed, all the soldiers who were nearby pulled over and gave way to a commander who was riding on a large horse.
"Welcome brother, let's go in" General Tang said, welcoming guests. He took the saddle of the horse, intending to steer the horse into the stable, but the commander was reluctant to go down.
"Sorry general, but I am in a hurry and want to continue my duties immediately. Please convey this letter to the princess, this is the direct order of the emperor, "the commander said, then jumped down from the horse and handed over a letter. "I have to go to the fort around here and tell you the same thing."
"Let me take you directly to the princess."
The commander shook his head. "No need, I believe in you, General Tang. It's bad."
Then this commander climbed up again his horse and saluted. In a hasty manner, he snapped and his horse then ran quickly out of the fortress.
General Tang did not feel shunned even though that attitude was a little disrespectful. Giving a letter that should have been directly given to the princess, but she instead gave it to someone else.
But given the current situation, general Tang had no time to think about it. He immediately ran to the residence of the princess and when he got there, immediately knocked on the door.
"Lake in!" a distinctive authoritative voice sounded from within.
General Tang walked in and without further ado, saluted then said. "Just a commander from the king's city, sent this letter to your majesty."
Princess Song Zhu hastily snatched the letter and flipped through it. Determine if the letter is really from the emperor. But his forehead is wrinkled. Without distracting him, he asked. "Why not give it to me?"
General Tang understood the princess's displeasure. "Please be advised. The commander said he should report the same to the other forts immediately."
The woman nodded in understanding. Then tear off the end of the letter and open it. Read the letter attentively, the princess's face always seemed tense with both eyebrows as if almost united. This made general Tang tense as well.
After some time, he finally read the contents of the letter out loud. "Your report is correct, many say the same, that Jeiji's troops confined to the north are sitting somewhere waiting. But from your explanation, we now know who the locked forces are waiting for. So by my command, destroy them before the army from the south arrives. Let's just hope your guess is correct that we're getting a helping hand from the mountain-man kingdom."
The princess closed the letter back and sighed. "That's how it is," he glanced at general Tang. "Do what he tells you. Prepare the soldiers, each general brings one army. Then please get World King Silat here!"
General Tang nodded and plunged in. "Okay, sire!"
