Chapter 524: Chapter 330: Reactions from All Sides, the Eve of the Two Federations’ Decisive Battle

"If I don’t do something now, wouldn’t that just make the students from the other federations think I’m inferior to Zhang Yi?"

Candidate Saint Child Elias paused, then lowered his voice.

"Besides, do you really think I’m doing this just for my own selfish reasons?"

’Aren’t you?’

Candidate Saintess Emily thought to herself.

Outwardly, however, she just gave him a puzzled look.

"The Yanhuang Federation students’ total team Points have now surpassed one million, reaching one million and ten thousand."

"And we only have nine hundred fifty thousand."

Candidate Saint Child Elias sneered again.

"On the surface, a gap of sixty thousand Points doesn’t seem like much."

"But you have to remember, ever since we entered the Inner Earth World, the White Eagle Federation’s total team Points have consistently lagged behind the Yanhuang Federation’s."

"If this trend continues and I don’t do something, there’s no guarantee we’ll secure the final team victory!"

"But if we can annihilate the reinforcements sent by the Yanhuang Federation today, we can significantly wear down their active forces."

"At the very least, it will cost them fifty thousand Points!"

"That way, the gap in total team Points between us and the Yanhuang Federation will shrink."

"In the final two weeks, we’ll have ample opportunity to pull ahead!"

"That’s also why the other students are still willing to support me and lend me their Clan Corps."

A wide smile spread across Candidate Saint Child Elias’s face.

"But the risk is too great!"

"Besides, are you planning to make a move yourself?"

"Of course not."

Candidate Saint Child Elias shook his head.

"The rules of the University Federation Training Camp stipulate that participating students cannot intervene personally."

"But the rules don’t say that Clans can’t fight each other directly."

"So, as long as we don’t get involved and rely solely on the Power of our Clans, even Vice Admiral Qin Rui will be helpless to stop us."

Gazing at the approaching Sunbird Clan Army and the distant, faintly visible Elf Griffin Cavalry Corps,

Candidate Saint Child Elias’s smile grew even more sinister.

"Today, I’m going to show Zhang Yi, and all the other students, just who is the strongest in this year’s University Federation Training camp!"

...

Inside the Xuanwu-III Type Integrated Warship, in the Command Center and Instructors’ Observation Room.

Vice Admiral Qin Rui was sipping his tea when suddenly, an alert sounded from the Xuanwu-III Type Integrated Warship’s internal detection system.

"High-energy reaction detected in Large-Scale Inner Earth World Sector 8. Traces of suspected Legendary Level Clan activity found. Suspected Legendary Level Clan is engaged in high-velocity movement. Initiate threat monitoring?"

"Oh?"

Vice Admiral Qin Rui’s interest was piqued.

"Immediately pull up the target’s energy signature and trajectory. Provide a video feed."

Vice Admiral Qin Rui commanded.

However, just because Vice Admiral Qin Rui could remain composed didn’t mean the other officers could do the same.

"If a wild Legendary Level Clan has actually appeared, the consequences will be enormous!"

"A Clan with Legendary Level power is more than capable of injuring a student at the Ninth Transformation Demigod level."

"It could even pose a threat to their lives."

"Besides, if they failed to detect such a dangerous target and properly assess the risk level before the Inner Earth World mission started,"

"then that would be a grave dereliction of duty!"

At this thought, Colonel Zhao Feng’s knees felt a little weak.

However, when the Xuanwu-III Type Integrated Warship’s monitoring system pulled up the Legendary Clan’s direction of travel and the corresponding video feed,

Colonel Zhao Feng let out a sigh of relief after seeing it.

’Ah, so it’s just a Clan sent out by one of the students!’

But once his relief passed,

a new curiosity sparked within Colonel Zhao Feng.

’Which student commands a Clan this powerful?’

’While the other students haven’t managed to raise a single Legendary Level Heroic Clan, this one actually has three!’

Meanwhile, Vice Admiral Qin Rui, who had higher clearance, could see more clearly and knew far more.

His gaze fell upon the green dot representing the Yanhuang Federation student, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

’That kid, Zhang Yi, and the Yanhuang Federation forces he’s commanding are not to be trifed with.’

’Looks like the White Eagle Federation students have bitten off more than they can chew this time.’

’Candidate Saint Child Elias is about to hit a brick wall.’

At the same time, the five lead instructors from the Blue Star Federation were all using the monitoring system provided by the Xuanwu-III Type Integrated Warship to observe their respective students’ performance.

The lead instructors for the White Eagle Federation and the Yanhuang Federation, however, seemed to be watching the same location on their screens.

The White Eagle Federation’s lead instructor, Brian, looked a bit pale.

He thought to himself:

’I clearly warned Elias about this. Why did he still insist on tangling with the Yanhuang Federation students!’

’So reckless!’

As for Chief Instructor Yang, upon seeing the footage of the White Eagle Federation students ambushing those from the Yanhuang Federation,

his face remained impassive.

In fact, when Chief Instructor Yang saw that Pioneer Corps Commander Eric from the Zhang Yi Divine Realm had already set out on dragonback,

he knew the situation was well in hand.

Although he couldn’t immediately identify the type of dragon Pioneer Corps Commander Eric was riding,

he had seen Pioneer Corps Commander Eric of the Zhang Yi Divine Realm during the three-way virtual divine war between Zhang Yi, Gu Yun, and Tuoba Yu, and he knew Eric possessed Legendary Level power.

In a place like the Inner Earth World, where there wasn’t a single wild Legendary Clan,

and with none of the students from the other federations having raised a Legendary Clan of their own,

Chief Instructor Yang was already sitting pretty.

Besides, which of the five lead instructors present didn’t possess the power of a Middle-Level Divine Being?

The differing reactions of Instructor Brian and Chief Instructor Yang immediately drew the others’ attention.

In turn, the projection screens before them changed, switching to the same feed as Instructor Brian and Chief Instructor Yang.

After getting a clear look at the situation,

Instructor Ivan San from the Giant Bear Federation also wore a look of keen interest.

"This is the first direct confrontation between students from two different federations in this entire exchange."

"A spectacle like this is a must-see!"

"I really hope this fight lasts a while!"

Since this conflict didn’t involve students from his own federation,

Instructor Ivan San watched with the gleeful attitude of a mere spectator.

Instructor Williams from the Holy Roman Federation also pushed up his glasses, as if to get a better look.

For Middle-Level Divine Beings like them, who had long since moved past the struggles of being a Demigod,

this was the most exciting kind of conflict—one involving both personal stakes and emotional grudges!

Even Instructor Anade from the Third World Federation silently switched the feed on her screen.

...

High above Sector Seven, over the canyon, Lu Mei’s Blazing Flame Bird Clan Army had arrived.

However, the Blazing Flame Bird Clan Army didn’t descend, instead circling high above the canyon.

The Flame Bird Clan’s reconnaissance had already spotted the legions hidden within the canyon.

Through their Divine Power link,

Lu Mei, who was also witnessing this scene,

relayed the details of the situation to Zhang Yi.

"Commander, after snatching our spoils, the students from the White Eagle Federation didn’t flee. Instead, they’ve chosen advantageous terrain and set up an ambush in the canyon."

"What’s more, the Sunbird Clan Army has also been spotted alongside the Angel Clan."

"Clearly, this is most likely an ambush set by Candidate Saint Child Elias!"

Hearing Lu Mei’s report, Zhang Yi simply shook his head.

"No need to rush, Lu Mei. For now, surround them but don’t engage."

"Wait for my Elf Griffin Cavalry Corps to arrive. Then, we’ll launch a probing attack."

"After that, once all the Clan Corps from the Yanhuang Federation students have arrived and blocked off any potential escape routes, we’ll launch an all-out assault!"

"We’ll cripple them in one fell swoop!"

"I refuse to believe they can withstand a full-scale assault from three Legendary Clans!"

As he said this, a confident smile spread across Zhang Yi’s face.
