After the commotion finally settled, the entire first defensive line erupted into cheers.
Like thunder, the sounds of cheering and celebration reverberated throughout the fort.
Both the warriors and the workers who handled menial tasks, such as moving ammunition or supplying spirit stones to warriors who had depleted their spiritual qi, joined in the celebration.
Even the physicians in the infirmary smiled.
But they only paused for a moment.
For those working in the medical field, their job didn't end when the battle did. There were still many injured warriors waiting in line to be treated.
After the initial celebration, the casualties were tallied.
The bodies of the fallen warriors were carried from the walls to the morgue, and their names were recorded so that their families could receive the compensation that the Ximen Clan would provide in recognition of their sacrifice.
