Bai Ye’s spirit was somewhat hazy, and many past scenes floated before his eyes.
At that time, the world battlefield had reached its final stages, and there were no longer so many regional divisions.
Most areas were either destroyed or merged.
Ultimately, the world battlefield was divided into only four districts: East, West, North, and South, plus the central area where the world battlefield exit was located.
East District: The Twin Whites, Bai Lu and Bai Ye!
The two of them dominated all the technological regions of the East.
Bai Lu alone could destroy a city.
Bai Ye alone possessed the combat power of a city.
West District: Huang Quan, known as the King of the Nine Underworlds, could summon legions of the undead to roam freely. He once fought Bai Ye’s mechanical army to a standstill.
No outsider could encroach upon the West District he controlled.
This was royal power!
North District: Two heroes clashed, Sword God Xia Zhi Feng and Demon Lord Heath.Moras, playing the role of fated enemies, fought each other relentlessly day and night.
During the struggle for the central area, they both went mad and ultimately died in battle.
South District: Lilith.Jara, crowned the Apostle, was the only woman who received divine power. At that time, many experts called her the closest to god.
In fact, Bai Ye’s path to the end also involved an element of luck.
At that time, Lilith.Jara was considered the one closest to the central tower and capable of leaving the world battlefield.
Aside from the top-tier experts…
On Mount Duankong, Situ Chicheng meditated on the Way of the Sword.
In the Nine-Layered Tomb, Duolunoo practiced the flying corpse technique.
In Feilei Tian, Kassala tempered his Thunder Hammer.
By the Sea of Forgetfulness, Ye Yue played barefoot in the water.
But did these named experts drive the course of the world battlefield?
No, not at all!
This matter had nothing to do with strength. Often, there were limits to what one person could achieve. No matter how strong you were, if you couldn’t do something, you couldn’t do it.
The progress of the world battlefield was fundamentally driven by the exploration of regions and the excavation of forbidden zones, which led to the massive appearance of God Stone fragments and large-scale battles.
Then…
To adapt to this rhythm, exploration and excavation of forbidden zones had to continue, in a cycle.
Therefore, what truly drove the course of the world battlefield…
Bai Ye believed it to be the three major factions!
Namely…
The Crouching Dragon Society, the Evil Spirit Gang, and the Flower Street.
These three factions had a large number of personnel and could act in an organized and orderly manner. Their activity was the core driving force of the world battlefield’s progression.
To put it more directly…
Bai Ye's last battle in his previous life—the Central Area War!
Was the struggle at that time among the various top experts?
Of course not!
The total number of participants in that war exceeded ten thousand. It was the final battle and the largest battle in the history of the world battlefield.
And the majority of these participants were from the three major factions.
The so-called top experts were fundamentally few in number.
How could they possibly initiate the Central Area War?
What truly initiated the Central Area War were the three major factions!
They believed that the final hour had arrived and that their factions were qualified to infiltrate the central area.
Therefore, the Central Area War commenced.
Top experts?
The so-called top experts merely went along with the times and joined this war.
And as things stood, the Crouching Dragon Society had already taken initial shape.
This was unavoidable. The controllers of the Crouching Dragon Society were not even within the world battlefield. Instead, they were powerful individuals who had entered the world battlefield before, left it, and then, upon returning to their own worlds, established it.
Therefore, the Crouching Dragon Society possessed natural foundations. At the beginning of their entry into the world battlefield, a portion of them were already allied.
Then, with these individuals from the same world as a basis, they continuously expanded their influence, inevitably leading to rapid development.
As for the Evil Spirit Gang before Bai Ye’s eyes…
Bai Ye had some understanding of them.
The establishment of the Evil Spirit Gang was initially a response to the oppression of the Crouching Dragon Society.
In order to gain an advantage in the early stages, the Crouching Dragon Society had gone too far, and where there was oppression, there was resistance.
Then…
A man named Harvey.Stanson found an opportunity.
He used the oppression of the Crouching Dragon Society to establish the Evil Spirit Gang, and in certain aspects, Harvey was indeed a prodigy.
In Bai Ye’s memory, Harvey.Stanson’s strength was very average. With the support of the Evil Spirit Gang, he could only barely make it into the ranks of first-class experts in the later stages of the world battlefield.
At the same time, he relied on a large number of good resources, and his personal strength was always somewhat lacking.
Combat talent, after all, still existed!
However, Harvey’s talent for command was clearly maxed out.
He used a corporate management approach to create a hierarchy for the Evil Spirit Gang, managing it with different departments each having their own responsibilities.
After amassing a large number of followers by exploiting the oppression of the Crouching Dragon Society in the early stages, he then used his excellent management methods to steadily expand the Evil Spirit Gang.
Naturally, in the early period, they couldn’t compare to the Crouching Dragon Society, but after the mid-stages of the world battlefield, the Evil Spirit Gang took off.
The Crouching Dragon Society’s development reached a bottleneck, while the Evil Spirit Gang continued to develop steadily, eventually creating a situation of mutual opposition.
And if the Evil Spirit Gang could be considered a steadily improving type…
Then, the Flower Street, one of the three major factions, was incredibly legendary.
Bai Ye didn’t know much about Flower Street, or rather, most people didn’t know much about Flower Street. They only knew that the leader of Flower Street was named Hua Zhixiao, and people called her Sister Hua.
The rise of Flower Street was a complete mystery.
No one knew how Flower Street developed, but people always heard about Flower Street’s affairs.
Although Flower Street was one of the three major factions.
However, before the Central War broke out, the generally recognized major powers were actually only the Crouching Dragon Society and the Evil Spirit Gang.
At that time, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a two-horse race between these two.
As a result…
When the Central War began, Flower Street surprised everyone.
Flower Street revealed its terrifying power.
Because, the members of Flower Street…
Were more than half of the members from the Crouching Dragon Society and the Evil Spirit Gang!
This inevitably brought to mind two words: Undercover!
But normal undercover operations involved one person hiding within a group. Good heavens, Flower Street’s infiltration meant that at least a quarter of the members of the two major factions were their own people.
And those famous top experts, who seemed to have no contact with Flower Street, were discovered during the Central Area War to be members of Flower Street.
Therefore, Flower Street actually became famous in the final battle, and it was only then that people realized Flower Street's strength was no less than that of the Crouching Dragon Society and the Evil Spirit Gang.
