Chapter 84

The other team members were not to be outdone, unleashing a barrage of attacks like Water Snake Rampage, Stone Edge Dance, Ice Roar, Earth Spike Skyward, and Water Arrow Swarm.

At the same time, they began to move, forming the Big Dipper Formation. However, apart from the central coordinating Yin Star, the North Star was now occupied by two people.

If such an attack had been used in the matches of the previous two empires, those empires would have conceded defeat immediately.

However, the Mitchell Empire would not be so easily defeated. When they reached the island, they also unleashed their attacks, and both sides simultaneously released a meteor shower.

Next came the Earth Canopy Defense Shield, and the surrounding plants seemed to come to life, with countless leaves and branches flying out of the trees.

The nearby lake rose over ten meters high—creating a massive sea wave.

The entire island was in turmoil.

The two teams from the Rexlar Empire communicated quickly through numbers and letters. Harold could control three voice devices, and he also used magic to press the buttons, though his control was not perfect.

The Mitchell Empire did not think of the same method, but they had one person in every three responsible for directing, coordinating the three people, and then coordinating with others. The remaining captain was a free agent.

The island was bombarded with various spells, and various defenses were raised.

No one was willing to lose, but after the initial surprise attack failed, they did not want to reveal all their strength at once.

The match entered a stalemate.

The people from the other empires watched, their thoughts complex.

They knew that the Rexlar Empire and the Mitchell Empire were the strongest of the sixteen empires, with roughly equal economic and military strength.

Moreover, the wars between them had never ceased, and most of their energy was focused on their rivals.

This allowed the other fourteen empires to exist peacefully. Otherwise, they would have been swallowed up long ago.

But even the strongest have their limits.

During the three consecutive losses on the continent, how could the contestants sent by the two empires compare to the current ones?

Back then, the two empires were only slightly stronger than the other fourteen empires, and even after a series of battles, they could not guarantee a first place.

The teams from the two empires in front of them were not like those from the previous three years.

The strength displayed by the contestants from the two empires now clearly surpassed that of the other fourteen empires.

With their equipment, they were truly determined to win the continental war.

The adults who came with the contestants were somewhat better off.

The young contestants from the fourteen empires, watching the match, had already lost their confidence in victory.

They couldn't understand why, when a large rock was about to hit a Rexlar Empire contestant, the contestant did not dodge but instead turned and attacked another position.

But then another contestant deflected the rock.

Also, when the Mitchell Empire contestants tried to encircle and isolate the enemy, a field of ice mirrors and water mirrors appeared before them.

These mirrors could confuse vision and judgment, and there might be attacks behind them.

The Mitchell Empire contestants did not care either. Others placed earth shields and wind shields on those charging forward, and teammates combined to release ten thousand ice spikes.

When they charged forward, the ice mirrors and water mirrors in front of them disappeared.

Although their encirclement plan failed, the Rexlar Empire contestants easily dodged.

But their coordination and teamwork were absolutely perfect.

Was this still the two empires renowned alongside their own on the Lancekent Continent?

They were all the same age, so how could their individual strength and overall coordination be so good?

The sky above the island was overcast, and dust rose from the ground. Between the ground and the clouds, the fog was thick, and there were mirrors created by magic, as well as dancing grass and trees.

The battle continued, with both sides gradually probing, constantly adjusting, and appropriately revealing some of their strength.

The match had entered a deadlock.

The leader of the Mitchell Empire's team, Captain Martin Owen, was astonished.

Their Mitchell Empire had produced many geniuses this year, and they had heard that the Rexlar Empire also had geniuses, so they had ambushed them.

Even if the ambush failed, it wouldn't have turned into this kind of battle, right?

Their contestants did not dare to reveal all their strength immediately, indicating that the captain had noticed that the opponents were not using their full strength either.

Heaven! Could this be the fate of the two empires?

One side strong, the other must also be strong. This had been predicted thousands of years ago, but no one wanted to believe it, so they sent assassins to ambush.

The result was a failure. Could the prophecy not be broken? Could fate not be reversed?

Who could defy heaven?

His unwillingness made him look at Valentin.

Valentin felt the other's gaze and smiled back at Martin Owen.

He had also thought about this prophecy, which said that the two empires would be entangled for generations unless someone who could break the sky and reach the stars appeared.

So he was reassured. Defy heaven? Break the sky, reach the stars?

What about the sunflower?

A family crest that had never appeared on the continent—the sunflower!

Even if fate was there, the quality of the sunflower could not be changed. Under immense pressure, it still grew towards the sun.

Valentin thought this, and his smile grew brighter.

Actually, he did not believe in fate. He thought his empire had discovered many geniuses in this selection.

In the empire's matches, they would directly overwhelm all opponents.

The problem was that the Mitchell Empire also produced geniuses, and they had not used their full strength.

Their side had Nalasha's perfect formation, and the other side also had excellent means.

Especially the two captains as free agents, their genius command skills were truly frustrating.

Fortunately, their side was not inferior, and even stronger.

Before coming, the emperor had specifically spoken to him, saying that if the entire fleet was in danger and he could not handle it, he should not panic but find Gongsun Murong and Nalasha, tell them the actual situation, and they would take action.

Their team had two Celestial Mages, right?

If they couldn't solve the danger, should he go to two children?

Well, since the emperor said they were powerful, he would trust them once.

Others had their own thoughts.

The battle between the two groups of four teams would not stop.

Now almost all contestants had unleashed their strongest abilities.

The people outside could hardly see clearly, only those with particularly strong abilities could understand the situation on the field through perception.

In the battle, Harold was the first to struggle. His command also required observation and a certain level of perception.

His perception was not that strong.

But the opponents could know everyone's position in the thick fog.

What he did not see was that the two captains of the younger group were not affected at all, and they commanded as usual.

Nalasha was the most relaxed. She even took out a roasted suckling pig to eat, her whole head blocked by the pig, but her command did not stop.

The opponents perceived her situation, their emotions fluctuated, and their command suddenly had a flaw.

Nalasha would not give up. She immediately made targeted arrangements, and now the younger group of Rexlar Empire contestants was pressing the Mitchell Empire.

Nalasha was doing this on purpose. She was not so foolish as to eat a roasted suckling pig during a battle. Her psychological warfare was successful, yay!

Harold did not have this ability or calculation. He was drenched in sweat and shouted, "Gongsun Murong, switch positions."

Saying this, he moved towards Gongsun Murong's position.

Gongsun Murong immediately took over and released six spell equipment voice devices.

He then took out a helmet from his spatial storage and put it on his head. Various data streamed before his eyes, and a 3D image appeared, showing the figures and movements of people in different places.

Then he also commanded the ten groups with numbers and letters like Nalasha.

He did not have Nalasha's perception talent, but he had instruments. Of course, he could also use the Fuxi Technique to perceive.

But that would require more mental effort. The first match was already tiring, so it was not worth it.

Once he put on the instrument, he could not only see his side's situation but also Nalasha's.

While commanding, he glanced at Nalasha, and she, despite the distance, also sensed it and looked back at him.

Then, as if by telepathy, they had an idea and grinned mischievously.

The two of them began to command their teams to move towards a certain place.

Nalasha was now only responsible for casting group support spells, occasionally helping to block ambushes, and not showing much strength, though her support spells were of a high level and cast fluently.

But this was definitely not the means of a sixth-level Earth Mage. Moreover, she had other abilities. For example, if she got close to the enemy captain, she might take out a sword and use seventh-level seventh-grade battle qi to cut off multiple heads.

Gongsun Murong was the same. He was still using battle qi in combat, and his sword technique unleashed 120% of the battle qi's attack power.

His dodging and movement were entirely dependent on battle qi, not using the Starlight Flash, otherwise, combined with his spells and the Fuxi Technique, he could end the battle in seconds.

But what about the next match? The one after that? What about fighting other continent's experts in the final? Could the team be trained without it?

The intelligent butler had said that any qualified ruler, regardless of their own strength, would not rely on themselves to fight and win repeatedly. There would always be times when they were targeted and plotted against.

Moreover, they also wanted to see what other means the two enemy captains, who were also hiding their strength, had, to learn from them.

Learning was fine, but it did not mean they would not use underhanded tactics.

While controlling their teams to fight the enemy, they slowly moved.

After a few minutes, the two teams finally moved into position.

They met in the middle.

The older group could not cross, but the younger group could.

Gongsun Murong did not plan to take the team across.

He and Nalasha only needed one opportunity, one chance to disrupt Nalasha's opponent, one chance to put Gongsun Murong's opponent at a disadvantage.

The surrounding fog was thick.

Just as the two groups were changing formations, Nalasha on the other side stuck out her tongue at Gongsun Murong, and a Meteor Shower flew towards the Mitchell Empire's older group, which was changing formations.

The page turns, and the AD begins.
