Chapter 1075 - 1075 Battle of Spear and Shield
1075 Battle of Spear and Shield
The White Elf Clan’s strength was far superior to the Lighthouse Territory.
Fortunately, their ranking hadn’t reached the level of the Lakon Territory, and their strength wasn’t on par with the Lakon Territory.
Therefore, even though the White Elf Clan was formidable, Liu Yan and the others still had a chance to win, and it wasn’t impossible for them to emerge victorious.
The good news was that the White Elf Clan powerhouses weren’t particularly adept at single battle, which was advantageous for Liu Yan and his team.
Finally, the White Elf Clan had a good relationship with the humans on the Blue Planet.
As a result, in this battle, both sides could essentially avoid life-or- death battles. They only needed to determine the victor.
Huang Yuan also provided an analysis. “Although we didn’t randomly get a weaker territory and lack confidence in winning, it’s a typical outcome. Most weaker territories tend to avoid single battles. After all, even if they lose without significant loss, there isn’t much chance of winning. Losing, in this case, would be a waste of a precious single battle token. Weaker territories, after obtaining a single battle token, often choose to trade it for other items that would be more beneficial to them. Therefore, it’s perfectly normal for us to be randomly assigned to the 3,000 to 4,000-strong White Elf Territory.
Wei Feng also chimed in, “Regardless, our lives won’t be in danger in this battle. It’s still quite advantageous for us.”
Lu Dajiang smiled and commented, “I never expected to run into an old acquaintance. What a stroke of luck.”
Huang Yuan looked at Liu Yan and suggested, “Captain, let’s select the first participant to go on stage. In this situation, I recommend choosing someone relatively strong, though not the absolute strongest. In other words, I suggest you don’t be the first to step onto the stage, keeping yourself in reserve. Furthermore, the individuals on the other side are familiar with our associates from the Lighthouse Territory. Therefore, it would be more advantageous for both parties if we send one of us up to discuss the battle’s terms. This will help minimize casualties.”
Liu Yan contemplated for a moment and decided. “Then let Lu Dajiang take the stage. He previously served as the captain of the Lighthouse Territory, so he has greater authority. Lu Dajiang can approach the other side and negotiate the terms of the battle without risking casualties. Moreover, among us, Lu Dajiang is the strongest. He can attempt to win several rounds.”
Huang Yuan and the others agreed to the plan.
Soon, Origin Territory confirmed that Lu Dajiang would be the first to step onto the stage.
With their selection made, Liu Yan and the rest waited in anticipation.
There were still two minutes remaining before the time designated by the Will of Tower.
At this moment, Liu Yan couldn’t help but feel a sense of anticipation. This was Liu Yan’s first single battle experience, and he eagerly awaited the unfolding process and the eventual rewards.
Although the others believed that securing the final territory battle might be challenging, their primary focus was to win as many smaller battles as possible to acquire additional rewards. Simultaneously, they aimed to provide a learning opportunity for newcomers like Luo Wei.
However, Liu Yan’s objective was somewhat different.
Although the strength of the White Elf Territory was not bad, that was the strength of the entire White Elf Territory.
In a single battle, it wasn’t a competition of the entire territory’s combat strength, but the combat strength of the top ten people.
In terms of personal combat strength, Liu Yan was undoubtedly extremely confident in himself.
Liu Yan had once searched through the memories of a few Lakonians and had some understanding of the strength of the powerful Lakon Territory.
Through their memories, Liu Yan understood that with his battle prowess of 21 Stars, he would be considered a top-notch expert in the Lakon Territory. He would at least be ranked in the top five.
The strength of the White Elf Territory was not even comparable to the strength of the Lakon Territory.
Therefore, as long as Liu Yan performed well, he could defeat the strongest person in the White Elf Territory and obtain the final victory.
However, the specific situation would depend on the previous matches.
The arena system not only tested the individual’s strength but also the order in which they entered the arena.
Even if he was strong enough, if he was exhausted by the opponent in front of him, or even injured, his chances of winning would be much lower if he faced the strongest opponent later.
Therefore, Liu Yan had also made up his mind. Unless the strongest person on the other side went up early, Liu Yan would not go up early. He would try his best to let the others defeat the weaker ones first.
In other words, in this single territory battle, Liu Yan would try his best to enter the stage later!
Soon, the time was up, and the voice of the Will of Tower sounded.
[The first round of battles begins. Both sides will send out a member to fight!]
[There are no rules for the battle. You can fight in any way you want until one side dies or chooses to admit defeat, ending the single battle!]
[The side that wins a single match will receive a random reward based on the strength of the opponent’s team member!]
[The losing party will leave the field, and the winning party must stay in the field to continue fighting with the other party’s next member!]
[The final side that stands in the arena will obtain the final victory in the territory battle. The previous rewards will be randomly doubled, and at the same time, you can obtain an additional reward!]
Hearing the Will of Tower’s notification, Liu Yan’s eyes lit up.
From the looks of it, the rewards from a single battle to the final territory battle were all randomly based on the opponent’s strength.
In this way, it seemed to be a good thing that the Origin Territory was randomly assigned to the White Elf Territory.
After all, even though they could easily obtain victory in a weaker territory, the rewards would not be much. Team Origin would also use up a precious single battle token!
Thus, a strong opponent was randomly selected, but not too strong. It was a strong opponent that the Origin Territory had a chance of defeating. It was the most suitable opponent at this time.
At the same time, only by randomly selecting a strong opponent could the new members of Team Origin be trained and improved through fighting against strong opponents.
If he were to fight against some weaker opponents, how could he obtain a battle of his strength?
Liu Yan was very clear that in a single territory battle, winning wasn’t the most important thing. The most important thing was to gain experience, gain rewards, and improve!
From this point of view, it was most appropriate to randomly choose the powerful White Elf Territory, but at the same time, it was an existence that Team Origin had a chance of defeating.
At this moment, the countdown had ended.
A small opening appeared in the barrier in front of them.
Lu Dajiang, who had already finished his preparations, turned around and glanced at the few of them. He smiled and said, “Wait for my good news!”
After saying this, Lu Dajiang entered the arena and began the first single battle!
At the same time, another White Elf entered the arena.
Liu Yan relied on the powerful vision obtained by the SS-grade skill, Extraordinary Five Senses, to observe that the opponent was a White Elf holding a shield.
The other party was more reliable. Without knowing the opponent’s strength, he chose the shield warrior to fight in the first round.
This way, even if they encountered a powerful opponent, they could rely on their powerful defense to withstand it. At the very least, it was not easy for any danger to occur.
It had to be said that the choice of the White Elf Territory was relatively wise.
Lu Dajiang’s weapon was a huge Warhammer, an offensive melee class.
The first players sent out by both sides were both melee classes. One was an offensive melee class, and the other was a defensive melee class.
This battle was destined to be a battle between spear and shield. It would depend on whether Lu Dajiang’s hammer attack was stronger or the opponent’s defense was stronger.
