More than 3,000 swordsmen gathered in the Great Snowmountain overnight. Many of whom were women and children, who could barely hold up the heavy swords. The five chiefs checked through all of them one by one and a lot of them were dismissed. There were about 2,000 people left after that.
The people of the Great Snowmountain had never felt so confident before. All of them felt that the future war would be an overwhelming victory.
Long Qinying, the chief of Luoshen Peak, changed his mind. He was willing to bring along the remaining few of his tribe to follow the Dragon King.
Gu Shenwei decided that it was better for him to remain behind and guard the Great Snowmountain. He announced that Long Qinying would be acting on behalf of him as "Chief of the Dragons and Leader of the Five Peaks", taking charge of all matters, and would continue to provide at least 100 swordsmen to the frontline every three months until Golden Roc Fort perishes.
