Glory Capital had three Strongholds to their name – the Barrenlands, Stranglethorn Vale and the Hillsbrad Foothills. There was also one more, but that was occupied by Gale Legion, which was in Desolace.
If it was Ruling Sword facing off against the alliance of nine clubs, Lu Li wouldn't be able to defend these four Strongholds even if he overworked himself to death. After all, Ruling Sword only had a core of 110 people. They would not be able to spread out their strength to cover all four Strongholds.
Blood Red War Flag and Glory Capital had always clashed. They wanted to decide the ownership of the Hillsbrad Foothills Stronghold.
Azure Guard had stolen Stranglethorn Vale once upon a time, but it was taken from them yet again.
They were obviously not happy with this, so Jade Flower Lover wanted to ally with the others.
