Just when everyone was caught in a wave of self-doubt, Quan Ji spoke up.
She said, "If you haven't thought it through, then I can give you a very universal answer: a belief in becoming stronger, which will support you in becoming a strong person."
"The strength of a person lies not in how much ability they have, but in how strong their heart is, and whether they can live up to the name of a strong person!"
"The strong are supported by their beliefs, like towering trees that can cover the sky!"
"Why become stronger? I'll tell you!"
"You are the proudest warriors of my Holy Glory Empire, the mighty lions who charge into battle to defend our homeland. You must use your swords to protect your loved ones, and you must use your bodies to form the most indestructible wall to protect our land and safeguard our empire!"
"If you are not strong, the gates of my Holy Glory Empire will be wide open, allowing other wolves and tigers to come in, burn, kill, plunder, and loot!"
"If you are not strong, the fine sons and daughters of my Holy Glory Empire will never be able to hold their heads high, will become slaves all over the world, men will have no dignity, and daughters will have no human rights. They will be worse than animals, and their lives will be worse than death!"
Quan Ji's voice was steady and deep, like a rock, yet it ignited the boiling passion in everyone's hearts like a raging fire, awakening their deepest wildness and love for their country.
Quan Ji: "I ask you, do you want the land that nurtured you to be trampled on at will, leaving it barren?"
Without further hesitation, their eyes blazed with anger, and they roared in unison, "No!"
"Do you want your wives and children to die a violent death, or to be played with at will?!"
"In no mood!"
At the height of the atmosphere, Quan Ji coldly mocked, as if pouring cold water on a raging fire.
"What's the use of not wanting to? You're too weak. You're just weaklings with no one to protect you. You can only be trampled on and played with."
The warriors, who had just been utterly annihilated by Quan Ji, were all plunged into despair and confusion.
Yes... they didn't have a direct feeling about it before, but now they really feel it; they are too weak.
The swords in their hands cannot protect people, let alone the cruelty of the battlefield. How can they defend their homes and country?
Quan Ji chuckled again, "However, I can make you stronger, to the same level as me, or even surpass me."
Hope rekindled in everyone's eyes.
They are all lions with blood in their hearts, how could they be willing to be trampled on the ground?
Fang Bading, who was also ignited, took the initiative to speak.
"So, what does Miss need us to do?"
"Good question!"
Quan Ji glanced around again, and seeing the unwavering determination in their eyes, she felt it was time.
"I will help you become stronger, and you must protect our country and fight for me to conquer the world. In return, I can make the same promise to you."
"I promise that if you do this, I will guarantee that within my Holy Glory Empire, no diligent family will suffer from hunger and cold, no talented person will have their ambitions thwarted, and no capable person will have nowhere to display their talents!"
"I promise, I pledge, but... can you really do it?"
These words ignited the soldiers' hopes, and they could hardly contain their passion.
What did they fear most on the battlefield?
The family members are not getting enough to eat or wear!
What are those from humble backgrounds most afraid of?
Birth is the end; you'll never be able to look up again in this lifetime!
Why are capable people afraid to use their talents?
Because they're afraid of being suppressed, afraid of being targeted!
Now, Kwon Ji has promised them everything they feared, promising to make them stronger.
Then they can also reply to Quan Ji.
Fang Bading spoke first:
"I am willing to use the sword in my hand to protect the eternal peace of the Holy Glory Kingdom! I am willing to use the blood in my head to ignite every speck of dust on the battlefield! I am willing to use my flesh and blood to become the most indestructible wall of the empire, to resist countless enemies!"
"Please guide us, Miss! We... are willing to promise!"
