Many people already know of Ye Zhongming, including super races like the Hall People.
This individual rose like a comet on the novice battlefield; back then, they only heard about him and soon forgot.
Later, whenever they heard his name again, it was often associated with Jie Su, referring to him as a friend of the Su Clan genius.
Then came the previous encounter with Kunz座, where he casually summoned formidable experts, truly making the Hall People realize why he was friends with geniuses from both the Star-Eye Clan and the Su Clan.
It is possible he is the strongest among the three!
In battle, Ye Zhongming’s performance proved this point.
Jie Su was indeed troublesome; his formations could connect different characteristics, making it very hard to deal with in combat, because one could not predict whether the next attack would be a beam of light, a vine, or some debilitating effect.
Moreover, this Su Clan genius was also quite gifted in close combat; without formations, he remained a respectable expert.
Pao Bai was also difficult to handle; as the silver commander of the Star-Eye Clan, after ascending to the level of an expert, he demonstrated just how terrifying an expert assassin could be.
In just a short time, it was unclear how many high-ranking individuals had already been killed by the injured Pao Bai, single-handedly paralyzing half of the Hall People's command system.
Yet now, they found Ye Zhongming to be even more challenging.
He did not rely on formations like Jie Su, steadfastly anchoring himself in a position that made the Hall People uncomfortable, nor did he move like Pao Bai, being elusive and hard to guard against.
However, his lethality was the greatest among the three.
He could function as a hundred-man squad, charging into the Hall People’s formation, where almost no one was his match.
It seemed he could control gravity, making those around him feel heavy, putting them at an inherent disadvantage. He also had a bright area that weakened anyone fighting within it.
He wore a layer of self-replenishing armor that provided exceptional protection.
He could summon the phantom shadows of mountains and real mountains to inflict massive area damage.
Beside him stood a Renyi Level Mechanical Battle Beast with powerful firepower, and a high-ranking lai lai bird, constantly providing air support.
He even possessed the ability to teleport in emergencies, as well as seemingly infinite stamina and strength.
This was a combat machine. Even if he was not yet a high-level expert, he exerted an intimidation factor surpassing that of an expert, combining with the lai lai bird and the mechanical battle beast, effectively equating to over two high-level experts.
Since the battle began, not much time had passed, yet he had already taken out thousands, single-handedly creating chaos in the Hall People’s formation.
Daring not to underestimate him, the Hall People realized they could not continue the fight.
Thus, they concentrated a group of a hundred expert teams, intending to eliminate Ye Zhongming.
They began to clear the surrounding area, but very discreetly, and not entirely eliminating everyone; they left some members of the Su Clan and the Alliance of Small Races as a cover.
Afterward, a high-ranking expert from the Hall People specifically went to deal with the lai lai bird, not wanting it to interfere at a critical moment.
Only when everything was nearly ready according to plan did one person launch a surprise attack on Ye Zhongming.
With the help of his companions, this person quickly killed the opponent before him but did not allow the body to fall.
Then, this person’s hand suddenly reached through the corpse, directing a surge of energy toward Ye Zhongming, who had his back turned.
This energy was very subtle and not particularly powerful; in fact, the true target was not Ye Zhongming's body but the ground beneath his feet.
In the heat of battle, it was impossible for Ye Zhongming to be fully guarded. He only perceived the energy when it hit the ground, but before he could turn around, he felt his footing give way, and the once-solid ground turned into a muddy pit.
