“Oh, I see…” the Berserker responded after hearing Ye Xiu’s words, sounding thoughtful.

“Then how did you grasp their encirclement formation?” the Berserker asked again.

“I also went through a long period of observation and analysis. Then, based on the distance between their team members, direction of movement, and the size of the map space, I made deductions,” Ye Xiu said.

“You can even do that?” the Berserker was shocked.

Some of what Ye Xiu said had vaguely been heard by Deception before, and he didn't quite believe it at first. But later, after running around with Lord Grim, he realized that this person did indeed have some understanding of the opponent’s arrangements. Not to say he knew everything, but he had at least achieved something that Deception couldn't.

“We have to learn properly!” the Berserker then said to the few who had come with him.

The intelligence Spring Brook Guild had judged wasn't wrong. These five Berserkers were indeed the five members of Yizhan the World: the Berserker was Zhan Loulan, the Battle Mage was Xiao Bei, the Grappler was Ye Xi, the Elementalist was Ahead of the Sky, and the Cleric was Chiliae Holy. It was Ye Xiu who had given Zhan Loulan the message, telling them to come here to practice.

Zhan Loulan and the others were going to enter the professional scene, so leveling was no longer necessary. As for equipment issues, they had to follow a different approach. Ye Xiu didn't inquire about this, he guessed that Zhan Loulan and the others weren't so confident as to think that they could charge into the professional scene with the equipment they currently wore in the Heavenly Domain. They hadn’t spoken about their plans, so Ye Xiu didn’t ask.

But in any case, improving personal skills and teamwork was something that never ended. Especially after fighting against Ye Xiu, and later against Huang Shaotian and Wang Jiexi, Zhan Loulan and his group had completely dispelled their initial overly ambitious thoughts. They were now grounded and set their goal for the first year in the professional scene as "holding their position."

Holding their position meant not falling into the last two places and being directly eliminated.

It wasn't uncommon for newly joined teams to drop out in their first year. Zhan Loulan and the others were now somewhat afraid. If they hadn't met Ye Xiu, with their previous mindset of thinking they could compete for the championship, they would probably have added another page to the list of unsurprising failures.

Improve!

Zhan Loulan and the others only had this one thought in their minds now. They hadn't come to the professional scene to enjoy the scenery, nor were they fans like Chen Guo, satisfied with just having the experience. They were serious and wanted to make a name for themselves in the professional scene.

Knowing that Ye Xiu was the great god Ye Qiu, Zhan Loulan and the others naturally hoped to learn more things from him. So today, when such a big scene occurred, Ye Xiu immediately called them over.

Although this kind of scene would never be encountered in a formal professional match, it was a good opportunity to hone their team. The opportunity to have professional players accompany them to practice like that day was hard to come by.

With these few arriving, the storm-like offensive that they unleashed under Ye Xiu's leadership not only astonished those like Jin Xiang who were hacked into corpses, but even they themselves felt surprised.

Just hacking their way here, they already felt like they had learned a lot.

Aoe (area of effect) attacks, who wouldn’t know them? But to be able to use Aoe attacks to such an extent was not something that could be found just anywhere.

This was the professional level!

What Zhan Loulan had in mind was just this one thought. This also made them realize that if they wanted to survive in the professional scene, they had to have such combat power. But now, without Ye Xiu coordinating and directing them, they believed they couldn't reach such a level.

They were quite proficient in their respective classes, but their coordination between classes, skill combinations, and application techniques were far from Ye Xiu’s level, even if they went all out.

“Record it, record everything!” Zhan Loulan said privately.

“Of course, it’s always being recorded,” Ahead of the Sky replied.

“We have to study it carefully later, and then we'll practice it ourselves,” Zhan Loulan said.

As they spoke, the seven-member team encountered another team from Blue River Guild. Upon seeing the seven coming up to them, this ten-member team panicked and tried to escape.

This time it was real, not some lure. Because orders had come from above, teams with fewer than 30 people were to avoid conflict directly.

The combat power of the seven-member team was estimated by the three guild leaders to be equivalent to that of 30 people, and even then, they didn't feel safe. At this time, they were gathering their forces, striving to form a group directly, to face the enemy with a hundred people.

Without realizing it, the three had forgotten that they were in pursuit, and they had come to understand this situation as an evenly matched kill. They were organizing their forces to attack the enemy.

Since they had encountered each other at a relatively long distance, the ten-member team turned around and left, and the seven had no way to stop them.

“Chase?” Zhan Loulan asked.

“Follow,” Ye Xiu said.

The seven chased in the direction where the ten had turned around.

“Pay attention to my rhythm of movement,” Ye Xiu said.

The people beside him began to pay attention to Lord Grim's movements.

The ten-member team initially only wanted to run as far as possible, without holding back at all. Seeing the seven being quickly left behind, they felt a little relieved. Who knew that not long after, the seven would reappear behind them, hanging there not too far, not too close. The ten-member team wanted to exert force again, but found that their endurance couldn't keep up. Without endurance, they couldn't sprint, and their speed would drop a level. As a result, from this point on, they watched as the seven got closer and closer.

“Help! Help!” They were still quite a distance away, but the ten had already shamelessly shouted for help, spamming their coordinates all over the guild channel.

“Persist!” The guild members could only say this. It would take time to get there.

“Closer, closer! Even closer!” The ten-member team was in chaos, wanting to cry but having no tears. Watching the threat get closer and closer, they were actually helpless, waiting for death, which was actually more terrifying than death itself.

“It’s no use, reinforcements can’t make it in time!” The captain of the ten-member team looked around in all four directions, and apart from the approaching seven-member team, there wasn't a single figure.

“What do we do?” A team member said with a sob.

“Log off!” The captain decisively said.

“Ah?” A team member was surprised.

“Otherwise, it's just a waste of death! Mengzi's team wasn't weak, but they were wiped out in less than a minute,” the captain said.

“Then let’s hurry up and log off, they’re about to enter our range!” a team member shouted.

Then, with a series of *shuā shuā shuā shuā* sounds, ten white lights bloomed simultaneously. After running for a long distance with the seven-member team, these ten players gloriously logged off.

“No way?” The seven were stunned, including Ye Xiu. They hadn’t expected to force the other party to log off.

“East!” At this moment, Ye Xiu didn't hesitate and immediately gave a new instruction. The team changed their previous circling encirclement and went straight east.

“Why?” Whenever there was an opportunity, every commander, Zhan Loulan, would ask, learning the art of command in theory.

“The other party should have grasped our combat power by now. They should be gathering. Continuing to chase in this direction will probably lead to encountering a large force. Let's avoid it for now,” Ye Xiu explained.

The seven-member team changed to the east, and at the same time, the three major guilds completely lost information on the seven-member team.

Their manpower was gathered, so the area they controlled was naturally small. If the team had been killed, their souls could have acted as fixed-point monitors, but an entire team had decisively logged off. From this moment on, no one but themselves knew where the seven-member team had gone.

So, after a while, the three major guilds were very pleased to have united their forces, and then they communicated the information and were dumbfounded. Where was Lord Grim? They didn't know. Where was that team? They didn't know either.

“Damn! This is too cunning!” Tian Nanxing was depressed! After the addition of Yizhan the World's combat power, the other party had turned from passive to active and counter-pursued them. They had hurriedly changed their strategy. As a result, the other party was ahead of them again. They weren’t taking the initiative now, hiding and changing from active to passive. This was even more difficult.

It was impossible to continue searching separately like before. That would just turn them into meat buns, and they weren’t feeding dogs, they were feeding wolves.

What about continuing to maintain such a bloated team? There were too few units, the controlled area was too small, and people could easily bypass it by just going around.

The three guilds were immediately caught in a dilemma. At this time, it seemed that there was only one way out in front of them, and that was to completely abandon this operation.

They were unwilling! They had invested so much manpower and were so high-profile, and it was just going to end in such a humiliating manner? The three guild leaders suddenly had a feeling, a feeling that they had returned to the tenth server, to the situation where they were helpless against Lord Grim in the tenth server. They had thought that everything would be different when they reached the Heavenly Domain, but this was the Heavenly Domain, how could it still be such a mess?

“What about the other guilds…” Chen Yehui seemed to remember something at this moment.

“Watching the fun…” Tian Nanxing sighed.

They had a good opportunity to hunt down Lord Grim, and they didn't skimp on sharing this information with the other guilds. However, with their three guilds arriving first and making such a big fuss, the other guilds had probably entered watch-the-show mode. The three guild leaders understood this after thinking about it. If it were them, they would do the same. Killing Lord Grim, the benefits were shared, and they were direct, so there was no need to actively compete for them. Everyone was very polite.

“Ending like this, I’m not reconciled!” Spring Brook Guild roared in frustration. But that’s how it was, what else could they do? Continue to increase manpower? Spring Brook Guild thought.

Chen Yehui then silently took off his headset, and then picked up the phone on the table.

“Ye Qiu is in the game now, leading that group of people who just jumped out and claimed to be forming a team called Yizhan the World, showing off their power.” Liu Hao, who had just finished a phone call, turned around and said.

“Hmph, those few? They don’t seem to be anything special,” Sun Xiang said coldly.

“But they're more than enough to deal with the players in the guild,” Liu Hao said. “I heard that there are seven of them, and they easily killed a team.”

“I can do that alone with a team of ordinary players,” Sun Xiang said.

“Hehe, of course,” Liu Hao said. “I happen to have a few accounts on hand, maybe we can give them some surprises.”

“Oh?” Sun Xiang’s eyes suddenly lit up. “Sounds interesting!”
