The vanguard forces of The Seven Archdemons were defeated, and the Heavenly Group urgently needed a victory to prove their strength, so they fought particularly hard this ti.
Besides the match between the Mummy Legion and the Heavenly Group, there was another battle that was crucial for the Sun Team to enter the top four, that was the battle of the Hall of Famous Generals.
The Hall of Famous Generals and the Sun Team both had 26 points, and their final round-robin match was against Vietnam’s Hair Wash, Cut and Blow Group, led by Powerful Legs, Vietnam’s number-one female player. This team was currently ranked 16th in Group A, considered a mid-tier team, with no hope of entering the top four, and now they were just fighting for honor. The victory for the Hall of Famous Generals was almost without doubt, just a matter of ti.
At this mont, Lv Bu, the leader of the Hall of Famous Generals, was loudly commanding, "Everyone hit them hard, no holding back, we need to win this battle in the shortest ti possible, so we have the chance to enter the top four!"
All mbers of the Hall of Famous Generals put forth their full effort, quickly driving the enemy back.
Each of them fought while simultaneously cursing the Mummy Legion, hoping they would fall to the Heavenly Group. As long as the Mummy Legion failed, the Hall of Famous Generals had a chance. anwhile, the Sun Team was set to face the Heroes’ Guild, never mind winning, even if they did, the battle would certainly take a long ti, nowhere near as quick as theirs against the Vietnase team.
"Big brother, there’s good news and bad news from outside the arena, which one do you want to hear?" Just then, Zhou Yu, the information officer of the Hall of Famous Generals, found a mont to speak to Lv Bu.
"Good news first!" Lv Bu, hearing his voice, felt a sinking feeling and hurriedly responded. Everyone from the Hall of Famous Generals perked up their ears, ready to hear both pieces of news.
While releasing long-range attacks, Zhou Yu gasped out, "The good news is that the Mummy Legion is at a disadvantage, being countered by the Heavenly Group. Today, the Heavenly Group is venting the fury that had been suppressed by the Giant General before and seems eager to show off their formidable strength, to prove they are still a world top-level team; hence, they are fighting ferociously, getting the upper hand against the Mummy Legion."
The crowd, hearing this news, showed faint smiles, it seed their curses had taken effect, and even the Egyptian Pharaoh couldn’t escape. However, Zhuge Liang’s expression didn’t change; he seed to have guessed another issue and asked in a serious tone, "And the bad news? Is it about the Sun Team?"
"Yes!" Zhou Yu took a deep breath and said, "The Sun Team’s opponent today was supposed to be the Heroes’ Guild, but the Heroes’ Guild unexpectedly found a severely wounded wild boss and rushed to encircle it for the kill. They’re still in fierce battle, unsure if they can finish within ten minutes. If they can’t finish on ti, they won’t be able to enter the battlefield, and the Sun Team will win by default, without any battle ti to consider."
Upon hearing this, those who were initially happy about the Mummy Legion being at a disadvantage suddenly had their spirits sink again. This bad news made the previous good news seem almost like bad news as well.
"God of Slaughter, Heroes’ Guild, you must fight hard! All my ancestors are hoping you’ll be strong enough to kill that damn wild boss quickly! Hurry to join the match! I’ve never longed for your strength as I do now!" At that mont, Zhang Fei, who was known for his straightforward thinking and strong limbs, suddenly started to pray.
His prayer infected all mbers of the Hall of Famous Generals. Although this team had been an archenemy of Huang Yi, everyone began to truly wish well for Huang Yi and the Heroes’ Guild from the bottom of their hearts.
"That’s right! Heroes’ Guild, you have to show your strength, give the Sun Team a good fight. Take Heavenly Group as an example, although they’ve secured their tickets to the next round, they’re still fighting so fiercely. You should use them as a role model to prove your strength isn’t any less than the Sun Team’s!" The Head of the Mage Corps, Guo Jia, standing beside Zhang Fei, also began to pray aloud.
At this mont, the fate of the Hall of Famous Generals was indirectly in the hands of the Heroes’ Guild. Their choice would determine the ranking order between the Hall of Famous Generals and the Sun Team.
...
Within the two-dinsional battlefield of the Heroes’ Guild and Sun Team, the noise was growing louder.
Nine minutes had already passed since the match ti. If the Heroes’ Guild didn’t show up soon, the battle would be declared a victory for the Sun Team.
"Ladies and gentlen, the Heroes’ Guild has not appeared yet, it seems their wild boss fight is not going smoothly. This match will decide the top four of Group A. Just now, news from the other two matches ca in; the Hall of Famous Generals has defeated their opponent and won, currently with 28 points, and their total battle ti is only 27 seconds longer than the Sun Team’s. This ans that as long as the Sun Team can defeat the Heroes’ Guild within 27 seconds in this match, they will surpass the Hall of Famous Generals in ranking!"
"Now it looks like if the Heroes’ Guild doesn’t participate in this match, then the Sun Team is sure to overtake the Hall of Famous Generals. However, if they join the battlefield, with their strength, the Sun Team is definitely unable to defeat them within 27 seconds. Now, everything depends on the Heroes’ Guild’s choice! Let us wait breathlessly for the final minute!"
Gradually, the last minute slowly turned into thirty seconds, twenty seconds, and finally arrived at the last ten seconds!
During these ten seconds, all spectators began to count down in unison, every single one of them fixed their gaze on the empty space opposite Sun Team!
At this mont, many mbers of the Hall of Famous Generals were watching the live broadcast of the match, core figures like Lv Bu, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhou Yu, and many others, couldn’t help but clench their fists tightly, staring at the video screen, praying over and over in their hearts to see the mbers of Heroes’ Guild. At this instant, Huang Yi, this detestable enemy, had beco the most lovable person in their eyes!
The mbers of Sun Team, on the other hand, felt completely the opposite. Aside from a few inford mbers of Rose Prison, all of them were praying for Heroes’ Guild to give up the match, eagerly anticipating that the battlefield on the other end would remain empty forever!
"Alright, dear audience, there are only five seconds left, let’s count down together, five, four, three, two, one! Okay, the system has issued a prompt, Heroes’ Guild has given up the match, congratulations to Sun Team who has secured victory directly! Since there was no formal start to this battle, there was no consumption of ti, and their ranking has now surpassed the Hall of Famous Generals, climbing to fourth place."
"Next, let’s switch the video feed to the match between Japanese Aerial Team and Egyptian Mummy Legion. If the Mummy Legion is defeated, then they will remain at 28 points, the sa as Sun Team, but the Mummy Legion has half an hour more total battle ti than Sun Team in all their previous victorious battles! So, Sun Team will ultimately climb to fourth place! By then, among the top four teams in Group A, there will be a total of three Chinese teams: Yanhuang Legion, Heroes’ Guild, and Sun Team. Our chances of winning the team championship for China will greatly increase! Let’s hope for the defeat of the Egyptian Mummy Legion, oh! No, no, let’s hope that Japanese Aerial Team can erge victorious..."
At this mont, the higher-ups of the Hall of Famous Generals, led by Lv Bu, had twitching mouth corners and ashen faces. They could only watch helplessly as they were ousted from the top four of Group A! These were the only two S-ranked Chinese teams, equivalent to Yanhuang Legion, but at this mont, they couldn’t even make it into the top eight!
"Alas!" Lv Bu sighed deeply, as if expelling all hope with that single breath.
The rest of the high-ranking officials were all utterly downcast, for they had nothing to do with the upcoming martial arts conference. They had been completely wiped out in both team and individual matches.
This guild, once on par with the Xuanyuan Clan as one of the two great Chinese guilds, seed to have reached its twilight years at this mont.
...
"Alright, brothers! Those bastards from Heroes’ Guild probably saw how formidable our Sun Team is, so they were too scared to co and fight! Congratulations to us for winning!" At this mont, Thunder God started to loudly celebrate with the mbers of Sun Team, his tone arrogant, completely dismissing Heroes’ Guild.
"Exactly, exactly! I’ve been annoyed by God of Slaughter for a while now; why should he get the best newcor? That award should have been Thunder God’s!" So mbers of Sun Team who were unaware of the truth jeered enthusiastically.
"Everyone, don’t be too happy yet. What cos next depends on whether Heavenly Group can pull it off. If they defeat the Mummy Legion, then it’s good, we can secure fourth place. But if the Mummy Legion wins the match, then our celebration would be in vain," Thunder God said, and impatiently teleported out of the Two-dinsional Battlefield, eager to watch the live broadcast of Heavenly Group versus Mummy Legion.
Their fate, which had been in the hands of Heroes’ Guild, was now in the hands of Heavenly Group.
At this ti, the live broadcast of Mummy Legion versus Heavenly Group had beco the most thrilling match of the last group stage, with both teams being superpowerhouses and nearly all spectators watching the ga!
The style of Mummy Legion was to engage in prolonged battles; their Attack Power was not very strong. Their main strategy revolved around their leader, the Pharaoh, the world’s top priest, who, with imnse Healing Ability, extended the battle duration by relying on their trendous stamina to gradually wear down their exhausted opponents until victory.
However, this approach had a fatal weakness: the battle duration would be outrageously long, causing their ranking to suffer under the sa points conditions.
To fight against a team like Mummy Legion, explosive power is essential; you shouldn’t give them the chance to sustain themselves but instead aim to swiftly and decisively defeat them.
Heavenly Group adopted such a tactic, with Heavenly Dao leading a group of top-level attackers relentlessly slaughtering the mbers of Mummy Legion, not allowing them any chance to heal, treat, or resurrect. Ten minutes into the battle, only a few dozen mummies were left struggling on the brink of death, while Heavenly Group still had a couple hundred people remaining. Winning this battle was just a matter of ti. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welco to vote for Recomndation Tickets and Monthly Tickets at Starting Point (qidian).
