Chapitre 601: The Birth of a Spirit Weapon

Ten thousand soldiers stood on the newly built drill ground in Ningbo City, forming a square that was six miles wide and stretching one hundred feet deep. A thousand soldiers in the first row, each with a thirty-stone strongbow¹ [1] in hand and an arrow on the string, released the bowstrings in unison and shot the arrows forty-five degrees into the sky at the command of a military officer.

The force of thirty-stones sent one thousand specially made arrows up to ten thousand feet in the sky, and the wind carried them further away. After that, the second wave of arrows was released, then the third, the fourth... Amidst the loud shout of the officer, arrows were being endlessly fired by the soldiers, turning into a dark curtain of death that veiled the sky.
