The attackers came in waves, attacking only once before moving back in waves to let the other wave come forward and attack.
Alex was pushed back. The waves were too strong. Not only was the tactic strong, but the soldiers were all physically strong as well. He had decided to use the Azure Dragon Battle Array to fight these people since he wanted to give the old man a chance.
However, it appeared that he was the one who needed that chance.
Alex quickly shifted his array, changing to the Hell Emperor's Divine Battle Array. Then, the battle became much fairer.
Still, he wasn't winning. He focused, having his fighters push back against the waves, trying to disrupt them. So long as he broke their rhythm, he could disrupt them completely.
He was so close to doing that when suddenly a group of soldiers flanked him from the right. He hadn't even seen them coming.
