After 41 minutes, the soldiers of the first army appeared in front of their lord.
"Prepare yourselves."
Zhou Zhou said to his soldiers before selecting the function of randomly joining an available human party.
[Matching with your ranking opponents…]
After a couple of seconds, a second notification appeared.
[Match successful!]
[Entering the battlefield!]
As soon as the above notification appeared, Zhou Zhou's body suddenly became illusory before disappearing from his soldier's view.
The next second.
Appearing in an unfamiliar surrounding the moment he opened his eyes, Zhou Zhou realized the sky was way closer than usual.
"How the hell is this island floating?"
Zhou Zhou exclaimed after realizing the reason while the sky was so close to him.
While Zhou Zhuo was busy checking out his surroundings, one of his party members has already discovered him after paying attention to the notifications dropped.
"Blazing Sun?"
"Isn't that Blazing Shit's lord name?"
"Fuck! How the hell did I get paired with Blazing Shit despite losing my first match and receiving a negative ranking?!"
"Did he in a way lose his first match before winning one more to bring his rank back to the Black iron-tier elementary grade?"
Sweet Death rambled on as he stared at the huge city at his right.
The idea of Zhou Zhou just beginning his ranking match never crossed his mind due to the event starting over 2 hour ago.
Standing on the wall of his city, Zhou Zhou glanced at the empty buildings behind him.
"I doubt if they are real."
He muttered before focusing on the cities at his right and at his left.
From their sizes, they were both smaller than Blazing Sun City.
Focusing on the notifications that have been hovering in front of his face, he read.
[You have entered the Black iron-tier elementary grade battlefield!]
[You have been randomly assigned to the Black iron-tier elementary grade battlefield — Sky Island!]
[Your teammates are: 1. Human Race — Red Moon (Black iron-tier elementary grade) (-1)! 2. Human Race — Sweet Death (Black iron-tier elementary grade) (-1)]
[Your opponents are: 1. Gopher Race — Lord Nord (Black iron-tier elementary grade) (-1)! 2. Gopher Race - Lord Hudur (Black iron-tier elementary grade) (-1)! 3. Gopher Race — Lord Dhazer (Black iron-tier elementary grade) (-1)]
[Loots Drop Rate: None]
[Condition to defeat the enemy: Kill all the enemy forces within 24 hours!]
[If you exceed the time limit, both sides will be judged to have negative battle results. Ranking -1!]
[You have 10 minutes to deploy your forces!]
[Countdown: 9 minutes: 59 seconds]
"Hold on a minute."
"The negatives on their profile are due to them owing a rank?"
Zhou Zhou couldn't believe the Supreme Will would make the event so difficult to pass.
"I will pity whoever is so unlucky to meet a whole lot of stronger lords 5 to 10 times in a row."
He chuckled before checking out the white virtual screen in front of him.
"So, I can summon my entire subjects to join me in battle."
Seeing the faction units being displayed on the virtual screen, he muttered.
Without wasting much time, he summoned his first army.
Nezario included.
"Fucking shit!"
"Blazing Shit has a fucking dragon?!"
Sweet Death felt goose-bumps all over his arms as he stared at the huge monster that suddenly appeared in Blazing Sun's city.
Also shocked at the appearance of a dragon towering over the 30m city wall, Red Moon mustered the courage to speak to the unfamiliar lord.
"Blazing Sun, can I know which planet you are from?"
Hearing the voice coming from his right, Zhou Zhou was surprised at the question.
'I doubt there would be anyone who doesn't know of me in the Cerulean planet's world channel.'
'That means she isn't a lord from the Cerulean planet.'
He thought.
"The Cerulean planet."
He said to Red Moon.
'Cerulean planet?'
'I haven't heard of such a planet among the powerful planets of the Human race.'
Red Moon thought before quickly speaking.
"I'm from the planet, Sebter."
"Can we rank together during this event?"
"It will depend on your luck."
Refusing Red Moon's request, Zhou Zhou stared ahead at the castles a distance away.
"Typical Blazing Shit."
"I should lay low and avoid getting his attention."
Hearing the discussion between Blazing Sun and Red Moon, Sweet Death muttered to himself.
A couple of seconds after he summoned his soldiers, they all stood beside him on the city wall.
Nezario lay down behind them with his breathe falling on the wall.
"My lord, do you have an idea how strong they are?"
Standing right next to his lord, Bai Yung asked him.
"No."
"But we'll make sure to deal with them as fast as possible."
"We have a lot of battles to complete."
Zhou Zhou said to his commander.
"Yes, my lord."
Bai Yung acknowledged.
Having no idea of the opponents' strength didn't bother him much.
His spear would be in the face of whatever might come.
Giving up on trying to cozy up to Zhou Zhou, Red Moon stayed silence as she waited for the 10 minutes countdown to reach its end.
"Finally."
Zhou Zhou was almost bored to death at how long 10 minutes was without doing anything specific.
[0:00:01]
[0:00:00]
As soon as the countdown ended, notifications appeared in front of the competing lords.
[Deployment time has ended!]
[The lord war has begun!]
"Get going."
Zhou Zhou said as he gave free rein to his soldiers.
As soon Zhou Zhou's voice sounded, Lu Chong zoomed off.
In a twinkle of an eye, he crossed a third of the distance between his camp and the opposing camp.
"I told Bai Yung not to include the 3 of them!"
Huang Sai shouted as he chased after the heroes at the second position of the race.
"The opponents would all be dead before we even arrive."
Qin We couldn't believe he would go into battle without once using his spear again.
Looking at his soldiers, Zhou Zhou couldn't help but laugh.
"I can't believe Bai Yung placed a reward for whoever killed the most opponents."
He said as he watched the competition which began with a race.
Currently, the first set of competitors includes Lu Chong, Aegon and Maris.
With Lu Chong at first place.
But despite been at first place, the gap between him and the divine-tier entities wasn't much.
His combat strength might be in a realm of his own due to his law skill, but it doesn't affect his movement speed.
With a divine-tier combatant being comparable to an empire-tier combatant an entire tier higher than them, Aegon and Maris could almost compete with the White platinum-tier intermediate grade strength level of the spear demon.
The second set of competitors includes Bai Yung and Monica.
The third set of competitors includes only Zhang Xiang.
And the final set of competitors includes Hui Teng, Sun Can, Qin We and Huang Sai.
"Bai Yung sure knows what can speed up the actions of his subordinates."
Zhou Zhou muttered as he glanced at Red Moon and Sweet Death staring speechless at his soldiers.
"They should be able to save their rebirth tokens by avoiding any death to their soldiers."
Muttering to himself, he focused once more on his soldiers.
Finally sensing the number of fighters, their strength level and combat tier in the opponents' camp after closing in on them, Lu Chong continued straight ahead towards the mud city in front of him.
"Tunneling through the ground?"
"Not the best of moves."
He muttered after seeing the subjects of Lord Nord sinking into the ground without much resistance from the earth.
Hurling his spear at the ground, he incited a few parts of the earth to rebel against the whole.
!!
The next moment, thousands of spike rocks tore through the earth with Lord Nord and its subjects hanging on them.
