In the water attribute territory.

The two captains, He Yang and Jin Cheng, came over.

The complexity of the terrain in this water attribute territory was beyond their expectations.

The temporary camp of the European Federation team was located in the middle of a vast lake.

There was only one narrow path to the island in the middle of the lake.

Without a doubt, if they were to attack rashly, they would be at a disadvantage if they could only take this small path.

They had three times the number of team members on this side, and the state of the team members was much better than that of the European Federation team. However, they could not form a formation despite having many people. Such an attack did not have the slightest advantage.

Even if they managed to attack it in the end, they would suffer great losses.

“Captain Liu, we can’t just attack rashly, right? Otherwise, the losses would be too great.” Jin Cheng couldn’t help but worry.

As the captain of the New Continent team, Jin Cheng knew they were Liu Yan’s prisoners of war. They had to listen to Liu Yan’s orders before the trial on the fifth floor of the tower ended.

At this time, Jin Cheng was worried that Liu Yan would ask them to attack directly. They would suffer a huge loss even if they defeated the opponent.

Even though the New Continent team had been eliminated this time, these team members were still the elites of the New Continent’s students. Naturally, Jin Cheng wanted to bring them back to cultivate and fight again next year.

If Liu Yan were to play any tricks at this time and allow them to attack, it would cause them to suffer huge losses.

He Yang, the captain of the Pan-ocean Community team, also nodded and said, “Yeah, we can’t attack now. It’s too disadvantageous for us.”

He Yang had the same thoughts. As the team captain, he naturally didn’t want to lose too many members.

Liu Yan could tell what the two were thinking with a single glance. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t force you guys. I won’t use you guys as cannon fodder.”

Liu Yan naturally didn’t need to push the people from these two teams to their deaths. Although there were conflicts before, it was for their interests.

After all, they were all humans of the Blue Planet and would be on the same side in the future.

They had only competed with each other on the fifth floor of the tower, so they were temporary enemies. Once they reached the higher levels of the tower, they would not meet again, so they were no longer enemies.

Hearing this, Jin Cheng and He Yang heaved a sigh of relief. After thinking about it carefully, they realized that Liu Yan wasn’t that kind of person.

“Then how do we attack? The temporary camp of the European Federation team is on an island in the lake, so it’s difficult to attack.” Jin Cheng was puzzled.

He Yang chimed in, “That’s right. I’ve just observed. There’s only one way to enter the island in the lake, and it’s narrow. If we attack, we can’t go there at all.

Liu Yan looked ahead. The vast lake was a little messy, and the lake was muddy.

Not all members of the European Federation team had taken the small path. Many of them swam across the lake.

Liu Yan looked at the temporary camp of the European Federation team on the island in the lake in the distance. The members of the European Federation team were making defensive preparations.

If the Land of Origin team chose to attack, they would launch long-range attacks.

Liu Yan turned to Xu Han and said, “Xu Han, gather all the members of your team who are good at long-range attacks, especially control skills, and launch a long-range suppression. Do you have the confidence to suppress the other side?”

Xu Han looked at the team members of the European Federation on the island. They were exhausted from the previous battle, and their combat power was limited.

Xu Han nodded. “I can gather three teams of awakened who are good at long-range attacks to suppress the European Federation team.”

“Alright.” Liu Yan was relieved. He had great faith in Xu Han’s long-range attack and crowd control.

Moreover, Liu Yan could also help.

Liu Yan’s long-range attacks were not weak. Although his crowd control skills were limited, he could still deal AOE damage by flying in the air with the Wings of Wind God.

Then, Liu Yan turned to Jin Cheng and He Yang. He said, “When Xu Han’s side is ready to suppress them, our three teams will wade through the water in one direction. Those who aren’t good at swimming can take that small path, and the rest of the team will all wade through the water. With Xu Han’s team suppressing them from a distance, the European Federation team won’t be able to hurt the rest of us.”

He Yang and Jin Cheng’s eyes lit up.

Liu Yan’s plan was simple, but it was highly effective.

The awakened ones who were good at long-range attacks and control were gathered to cast the spell simultaneously. The spell power suddenly surged, and it was much stronger. It was enough to suppress the European Federation team.

This way, members of the European Federation team wouldn’t be able to pose much of a threat to them as they waded toward the island in the lake.

Soon, Jin Cheng and He Yang left and returned to their team to prepare.

Luo Qingcheng did not say anything, but she looked at Liu Yan in surprise.

The plan just now seemed simple, but it was useful. It was impressive that Liu Yan came out with this plan.

A capable commander never needed to come up with a profound plan. The simpler the plan, the more practical it was. The most important thing was decisiveness. After encountering a situation, one should not hesitate and be able to think of a suitable way to implement it at the first moment.

And Liu Yan had undoubtedly achieved this.

Unconsciously, Liu Yan’s commanding ability had also grown, and he had become good at commanding.

However, Luo Qingcheng stepped forward to remind Liu Yan. “Under normal circumstances, Xu Han’s three teams of awakened ones are good at long-range attacks. They should be enough to suppress the European Federation team. However, this is their last chance. They will fight back with all their might. It’s hard to tell what will happen, so we should be prepared.

When Liu Yan heard this, he could not help but feel it made sense.

In terms of strength, they could naturally completely suppress the European Federation team.

However, the European Federation team was still resisting with all their might, and there was no way to retreat. He might even unleash his potential, so he needed to be careful.

When Murong Xue heard this, she didn’t think it was true. “What’s there to be afraid of? We have three teams against one team. We won’t fail! I’ll be at the front, so their attacks are useless against me. I’ll ensure the safety of my team members behind me!”

When Luo Qingcheng heard that, she looked at Murong Xue helplessly and said, “Murong Xue, it’s important for a member to be strong in group combat. However, there is so much a strong member could do. Hence, a strategy is crucial. If every ordinary member were to display a bit more strength, it would be a terrifying force when gathered together. It’s far more powerful than a top-tier expert.

Murong Xue was confused as she did not understand what Luo Qingcheng meant.

Chu Long pulled Murong Xue over and said, “Sister Murong Xue, don’t bother too much with them. Just listen to their orders. Sister Luo Qingcheng and Brother Liu Yan are enough to give orders.

When Murong Xue heard this, she instantly felt it was very reasonable. She nodded. “Commanding is too annoying. I’ll be in charge of charging and breaking through the enemy lines!

Immediately, Liu Yan and Luo Qingcheng communicated for a while and prepared to let the team members adopt a new formation.

The members lined up in rows, but the space between each row was slightly larger.

Such a dense formation allowed the team members to spread out and quickly rush to the island in the middle of the lake to engage in close combat. Furthermore, it also reduced losses as much as possible when the other party launched a long-range attack.

Apart from Xu Han and the others, there were also the undying Phoenix and Liu Yan in the sky. The battle was relatively simple.

Not long after, Xu Han’s team was ready. He gathered all the awakened who were good at long-range attacks and control from the three teams. They were all under Xu Han’s command to launch long-range attacks and suppress the enemy. It was to cover the main force as they waded through the water to the island in the middle of the lake for close combat.

The Land of Origin team had more members than the European Federation team. The condition of Land of Origin team members was better too. If the main force could reach the island in the middle of the lake, the battle would be one-sided and end in no time.

After everything was prepared, the three team members were ready to go. They were only waiting for Liu Yan’s orders.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yan also unfurled his Wings of Wind God and flew into the sky.

The team members kept staring at Liu Yan’s massive Wings of Wind God.

Members of the Land of Origin team had already seen Liu Yan’s Wings of Wind God before. But members of the other two teams never saw it before, so they were all surprised.
