Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

William paused, his face wore a very serious look, one that was impossible for such a kid to have at such a young age, "if you don't, then the survival of your clan will be under a huge test here. I won't force anyone, nor will I try to order you around using anything. I want each and every one of you to make such a decision by yourselves. The fact is…"

William paused when a mighty explosion ranged far behind, violent enough to cause the entire ground shake.

"As I can guarantee the safety and survival of your clan if you follow me out there, I can't guarantee the same for any of you. This is a suicidal mission, take it or leave it, that's up for you to decide."

And as his words landed, screams of shock and panic erupted from the walls.

"Watch out! More monsters are coming!"

"A gate of monsters appeared! Inform the elders, inform the patriarch, a dark gold grade gate of monsters appeared!"

"A gate of what?"

"What the heck?!!!"

"Isn't it… Supposed to be a grade three monster outbreak?!!!"

Just as such exclamations of shock and terror ranged all over the place, the faces of the group here paled.

All of sudden, and like a magical twist of events that none would expect or imagine, the entire battlefield shook with such unforeseen development.

A gate of monsters? That was enough to raise the grade of this monster tide by one grade at least.

Grade two monster outbreak? What the hell was going on in the world?!

Unlike the shock everyone here had, the party around William had a different kind of shock.

They all gazed up at William as if they were eyeing a monster or something.

Didn't William keep claiming that this monster tide wasn't a grade three one? Didn't he go all the way out and endure all kinds of harassments and mean comments, aggressive attitude from all of the spirit masters here, just to make preparations to take down monster tide higher than category three?

They eyed William like they were eyeing a monster. But for Berry and Kong, the two looked at him in such reverie and awe.

"Just how…" Lang was the most shocked one here. He was the one who looked down on William and kept mocking him and moving others against him.

Berry might not have known this, but Claine worked under direct orders from Lang. The latter wanted to harass and teach William a lesson, to make the latter know his true place. And yet, under Berry's protection, he had to make someone else do it.

So, he kept himself on the side, playing neutral and only stepping in when the heat over Claine was too much.

But at this moment… He only felt regret, doubt, and shock.

He couldn't have imagined the nonsense this kid kept sprouting all this time was proven to be right just like this!

It was just unbelievable!

William simply sighed and didn't take to his heart any of their previous deeds against him.

He could understand their position and their train of thoughts. However, right now, he was sure they would never question him anymore.

"I'm waiting for your decisions," unlike what everyone expected him to behave, William stood calm and collected, like a mighty spirit master who anticipated all this and foresaw everything.

William didn't delve into any detail, didn't explain anything. He knew the presence of such a monster gate was enough to make everyone believe what he told them and kept warning them against it for all this time.

Monster gates were such a mysterious thing that only appeared in monster tides of grade two and one. Not a single spirit master here would know about why and how they were formed.

Yet William knew. And that was expected when he heard about the nature of this monster tide in the first place.

Monster gates were a portal that'd link two distant places together. Like this, an army of monsters would appear like magic, out of nowhere, and join any monster tide without the need to worry about getting spotted.

And that was why their presence was an alarming matter. These gates were indestructible, by the current means of the spirit masters in this world.

William knew it wasn't the issue of their lack of strength, but lack of understanding.

How would anyone fight against something he lacked even the simplest and basic knowledge about it?

If one succeeded, then it'd be out of pure luck. And he wouldn't be able to repeat such a feat again even if he tried his best.

The appearance of one monster gate wasn't the main concern. As one appeared, two more were destined to show up soon enough.

That meant the army of monsters the spirit masters here were struggling against just got a boost of three more formidable armies.

And they came out of the blue, bypassing all the traps laid around the clan base.

That meant these monsters were going to just escape a deadly assault and be freshly ready to take down the Lang clan base here.

The grim look over the faces of everyone around was enough to tell how bad this situation was. In each spirit master's heart, they all came to the same conclusion.

They were all doomed!

And that was what William kept telling them about during the past hours, but none truly believed him!

"The reinforcements from the academy just sent a distress signal!"

"The reinforcements from the nearby clans just sent a distress signal!"

"Sigh!" Hearing such scary shouts from everyone around, William couldn't help but sigh, "the two other gates were prepared to stop the incoming reinforcements."

That said everything about how determined the generals and leaders of the monster army were to take down this clan.

William narrowed his eyes. He thought that the monsters would place a great importance on taking him or Berry down.

But it seemed they were adamant on not just taking him alone but taking down the entire clan with it.
