Xu Wu's shout caught Wan Qingxue and Ke Chen off guard. They didn't think too much about why he would change tactics, but out of trust, they didn't stop at all. Instead, they accelerated and rushed forward.

This scene threw Ren Shuangwen into a state of turmoil. If the three from Qinwang Academy were still chasing after her, her two fourth-tier teammates behind her would definitely be no match for them. Then, the last team of fourth-tier and third-tier teammates would have no chance of winning. They had already been wiped out in individual duels, and they would have no advantage in mixed battles. If they couldn't win in the team battle, then they would have failed the academy's trust. Qingfeng Academy had never won a single victory since the academy's martial arts competition began. Ren Shuangwen wanted to prove herself; she desperately wanted to win.

Based on this consideration, she disregarded the fierce attacks from Li Hufeng and Xu Wen and rushed towards Xu Wu and the other two, determined to stop them. However, this reckless move sealed the fate of Qingfeng Academy's defeat in the team battle of this year's academy competition.

Li Hufeng and Xu Wen seized the opportunity, attacking Ren Shuangwen from both sides. Instantly, Ren Shuangwen was hit hard and sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily into the rock wall. Xu Wu, who was running ahead, turned around upon hearing the sound and shouted to Xu Wen, "Big brother! Leave it to Senior Brother Li, hurry up and catch up!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Wen didn't linger and immediately gave chase, leaving Ren Shuangwen to be dealt with by Li Hufeng alone. Li Hufeng showed no mercy, landing several blows in quick succession, eliminating Ren Shuangwen completely. The Qingfeng Academy members in the spectator area all wore sorrowful expressions and sighed helplessly. With Ren Shuangwen eliminated, the outcome of Qingfeng Academy's team battle was already sealed.

As expected, the remaining members of Qingfeng Academy were unaware that Ren Shuangwen had been eliminated, and their retreat did not speed up. They were quickly caught up by Xu Wen, Xu Wu, and others, and eliminated one by one, until the entire Qingfeng Academy team was wiped out.

"The discipline of Qinwang Academy is truly admirable! Under Xu Wu's command, Qingfeng Academy became the first team to be eliminated in the group battle!" The commentator also expressed his admiration for Xu Wu. After all, each team had a fifth-level student as the commander, but Qinwang Academy had Xu Wu, who was only a fourth-level student, command the entire team, and no one had any objections to his command, which was resolutely carried out.

Tang Wan, standing in the stands, was also feeling down. Her academy had been defeated, and they were the first to be eliminated. How could she not be sad? Lin Anlan, who was beside her, comforted her, saying, "It's okay. If you lose this year, you can try again next year. How can you not win every year?"

"But we fail every year."

"This..." Lin Anlan didn't know what to say.

On the other side of the battlefield, Yunbei Academy faced off against Modi Academy. Neither academy seemed to have any tactical arrangements, and the strength of the middle forces on both sides, namely the three fourth-level students, was roughly equal. Each academy consisted of two fourth-level sixth-grade students and one fourth-level fifth-grade student. The only difference was that one of the fifth-level students was a fifth-level sixth-grade student and the other was a seventh-grade student. Among the third-level students, Modi Academy had produced a demonic genius like Huang Lewei.

It's unclear whether Cao Hongyun was affected by his failed strategy on the first day of the competition, but he seemed to lack energy and spirit on this day. However, upon seeing that his opponent was Tang Tianyu, who had prevented him from escaping the day before, he was consumed by rage and lost all sense of tactics, only thinking of rushing in.

On the other hand, the situation at the Demon Land Academy was quite different. Tang Tianyu, as the commander, was still in high spirits despite his serious injuries yesterday. When faced with the swarm of Yunbei Academy, he immediately made personnel arrangements. He would fight Cao Hongyun alone, while Huang Lewei would fight one of their fourth-level students alone. The remaining personnel would break through the remaining three of the enemy's students first.

The battle was about to begin. Tang Tianyu and Cao Hongyun were both injured yesterday, but there was a difference in their ranks. Tang Tianyu dominated Cao Hongyun from the start, but the fight was evenly matched. On the other side, Huang Lewei seemed to be on a roll, displaying an instinctive fervor for battle. He single-handedly challenged Peng Hui of Yunbei Academy, who was of a higher rank.

"My God! Huang Lewei from Modi Academy is actually fighting Peng Hui from Yunbei Academy all by himself, which is absolutely insane!" Just as the commentator said, this crazy move immediately drew cheers from the audience. After waiting for so long, they finally got a thrilling scene.

Su Yang carefully observed Huang Lewei's every move, wanting to learn how he used two elemental attributes simultaneously. Sure enough, Huang Lewei used fire and air elements at the same time, and each strike was far more powerful than his previous single-element attacks. Even so, he barely withstood Peng Hui's attacks; crossing five levels in a battle was still far too difficult.

However, the time Huang Lewei gained was not wasted. On the other side, the three fourth-level students from Modi Academy fought with exceptional ease. They first eliminated Ma Ruoxi, a third-level student from Yunbei Academy, and then attacked the remaining two. They quickly eliminated Jin Yadan and Xie Yao, and then sent one of them to support Huang Lewei. The remaining two went to besiege Cao Hongyun.

The battle quickly ended with a crushing victory for the Demon Land Academy. Judging from the current situation, the Demon Land Academy is the strongest among the remaining three teams. The key lies in the genius Huang Lewei, who can withstand the attacks of a fourth-level student for several minutes by himself. Don't underestimate these few minutes; in a battle, a few minutes is enough to determine the outcome.

On a stretch of Gobi Desert, the remaining teams from Qinwang, Modi, and Tianling Academy met as if they had planned it. The three teams took their positions and formed a standoff. Since it was a team battle, there was no rule against communication. In front of the Modi Academy members, Xu Wu shouted to Tianling Academy, "Senior Brother Mao! Right now, neither of us is a match for Modi Academy. How about we join forces and eliminate Modi Academy first?"

“Alright, Junior Brother Xu! Then I’ll trouble your Qinwang Academy to take the lead, and we’ll take turns wearing them down, shall we?” Mao Jianxing replied.

"Senior Brother Mao is joking! I know your concerns. This joint proposal is sincere. How about this: neither of our third-tier junior brothers should participate in the battle. If someone betrays us, the side that is betrayed will definitely get second place. What do you think?"

Xu Wu's suggestion was highly approved by Mao Jianxing. Both sides would leave one third-tier student behind, and the remaining eight would surround and attack the other five. They would win no matter what. Moreover, if Qinwang Academy betrayed them, even if all four of them were eliminated, Modi Academy would not spare any more people to eliminate their remaining third-tier students. Instead, they would prioritize eliminating Qinwang Academy, which still had combat power. At that time, Qinwang Academy would have to send all its members into battle, and none of them would escape. Their side could still win by eliminating their last remaining member, and the team would "win" second place.

After a brief moment of thought, Mao Jianxing readily agreed. Seeing the two sides form an alliance, Yu Ze from the Demon Land Academy was the first to curse, "Despicable! Shameless!" He then looked at Tang Tianyu and asked, "Senior Brother Tang, what should we do?"

Tang Tianyu definitely wanted to win the team championship, but he didn't have any good strategies at the moment. He could only say helplessly, "Let's retreat first and drag it out until they make a change. Then we can naturally win the championship."

Xu Wu didn't give them a chance to retreat. The two groups surrounded them from both sides, and soon a three-way battle broke out. Due to their numerical disadvantage, the Demon Land Academy quickly fell into a disadvantageous position. Everyone struggled to hold on, and they were injured one after another. Just when the Demon Land Academy was about to be defeated, a sudden change occurred.
