After suffering several crushing defeats, Wulong Country was driven by anger and humiliation, burning with a desire to turn the tables. To salvage their reputation, the Beast-Taming Tribe decided to unleash their secret weapon—the ancient Fire Ox Formation. Legend had it that once activated, this formation was unstoppable, striking terror into the hearts of any enemy in its path.
The chieftain of the Beast-Taming Tribe took personal command, selecting several hundred robust, prime bulls. They bound razor-sharp blades to the beasts' horns and tied oil-soaked reeds to their tails. Everything was prepared. At the chieftain's order, the soldiers ignited the reeds. Fanned by the wind, the flames instantly scorched the bulls' hindquarters. Stung with pain, the frantic animals charged furiously toward the Gale Camp.
Far away in the Gale Camp, a lookout soldier spotted a sea of fire accompanied by a chorus of deep bellows and shouted in panic, "Oh no! A horde of flaming monsters is charging right at us!"
