A confusing little system for newbie bosses

This team is the one that the little boy holding the golden staff belongs to.

His strength might not be good enough, and his combat experience is not as good as other contestants, but the defense of the gold element is very strong, and coupled with the magic power continuously provided by the staff, it is more than enough to defend against two attacks.

The first day of the competition ended, and the remaining five magicians from the upper realm did not continue to attack Zhang Jingyi and the other four.

Zhang Jingyi and the others only knew that there were lurkers, but they didn't know how many there were, so they didn't dare to be careless at all.

The competition in the next two days was not as intense as the first day. There were only a few teams with less than seven people left on the field. Zhang Jingyi and her team also achieved their initial goal and occupied twelve arenas.

Yang Haoxuan also successfully advanced to a fifth-level magician within these two days, further expanding his level advantage.

Starting from the fourth day, the heat on the field dropped to freezing point. All participating teams became cautious, focusing on defending the ring and rarely attacking other rings.

This is not okay.

Judging from the current points situation, Zhang Jingyi and her team need to occupy two arenas while maintaining the existing arena to ensure first place ranking.

Only the country ranked first will have priority development rights for secret realms in the next three years; other rewards are secondary.

Moreover, we are now in a period of frequent appearance of secret realms, and the natural treasures and minerals contained therein are important resources for the country to train magicians.

So for them, there is no difference between second place and last place, the only thing they can get is first place.

After three days of elimination, there were eleven teams left. Except for the little boy's team which only occupied one arena, the other teams had occupied at least two arenas.

However, some arenas were not defended twice or more. Although their own country’s flag was raised, the protective shield was not lit, and other teams could attack at any time.

For Zhang Jingyi and the other four, they now have two options to choose from.

One is to attack conservatively, choose two arenas that have not yet lit up their protective shields and capture them, and then just defend until the end of the game.

The second is to use the duel challenge in the competition rules to directly challenge the team that currently has the most arenas. The winning team can get all the arenas of the opponent.

Both options have their own advantages and disadvantages.

Plan 1 is more conservative, but as long as the team ranked second in points challenges other arenas, they will also need to take corresponding actions.

Plan 2 can widen the points gap at once, but there are still unknown magicians from the upper realm lurking inside, so we must be wary of their sudden attacks.

After careful consideration, Zhang Jingyi and the other four decided to adopt option two.

Yang Haoxuan has successfully advanced to a fifth-level magician. When he attacks together with Zhang Jingyi, the effect is doubled. With the assistance of the brothers Zhuang Qi and Zhuang Xi, and support from Kevin in the rear, even if a magician from the upper realm launches a sneak attack, it will not have much impact.

With this thought in mind, the five of them decisively gave up on defense and directly challenged the team currently ranked first in points.

It's a coincidence that the team that currently occupies the most arenas and ranks first in points is Kai's team.

Their team consists of eight people in total, and they have occupied five arenas. Three of them have activated the protective shields, and the remaining two arenas have not met the activation standards.

According to the rules of the competition, a duel challenge can only be initiated to a team with more participating players than the team itself. All players from both teams will participate, and the challenged party cannot refuse.

The challenge is limited to one hour, and the winner is the one who knocks all opponents off the ring first.

At the end of the countdown, if the challenged party has more than one contestant remaining on the stage, the challenged party wins and the challenging party is directly deemed to have lost.

If there is a tie, the challenger is deemed to have failed.

From the perspective of the rules, the duel challenge has many restrictions on the challenger, and most participating teams will not consider this.

However, Zhang Jingyi and the others' decision did not surprise Yunhuang.

Just based on Yang Haoxuan's record of fighting against three level five magicians alone, this duel challenge is tailor-made for them.

As for the challenged team, the atmosphere wasn't so relaxed...

There is a magician from the upper realm in Kai's team, otherwise they would not have such a big advantage over other participating teams.

When the lurking magician heard that Zhang Jingyi and the others were going to challenge him, he almost thought he was exposed.

He was placed in this team in response to a favor given by Tansen in order to help the country win.

So he was the only one lurking in this team, the others were in pairs or threes.

He had witnessed the battle between Yang Haoxuan and Kevin against the magician from the upper realm.

One person is already so terrifying, facing five people at the same time, he believes that he does not have such strength

It’s not that he wants to conquer the enemy without fighting, but that he knows his own limitations.

He comes from a medium-sized force in the upper realm. His strength is only considered inferior among these magicians, and he is considered a marginal figure.

It was because he didn't want to face the opponent who was suspected to be the son of destiny that he volunteered to agree to Tansen's request, but in the end he still couldn't escape.

I don't know whether I should say that those assassinating magicians were useless, or lament my own bad luck (￣◇￣;)
