CHAPTER TEXT:
"Timing is crucial. No matter how strong you are, you must seize the moment to overcome challenges when you are weak, and ensure success when you are powerful."
"In the face of any opponent, remember not to underestimate them. Eliminate your enemy as swiftly as possible."
"The Novice Battlefield is a place where battles can erupt at any time, and this time, we will undoubtedly face the siege of many races. From the moment we enter, you must be on high alert and ready for battle."
"If you find yourself caught in a group battle or in danger, remember, nothing is off-limits. The priority is survival. Fight if you can, run if you cannot."
"One more thing, when you take action, don't concern yourself with who the opponent is or which race they belong to. As long as they pose a threat to you, they can be eliminated."
"Luo Luo, make sure you keep the items prepared for you. Usually, remember, your main role is to assist. Try to leave the fighting to Gao Yi and Hatsune, allowing you to surprise the enemy during critical moments. Don't hold back these items; once your combat power is revealed, there's no need to hide anything anymore—just attack directly."
"This is the information about this Novice Battlefield; familiarize yourselves with it as soon as possible."
On a spacecraft, Ye Zhongming continuously relayed instructions to the three individuals. This was the last bit of time they had on their way to the Novice Battlefield. In about a day, they would arrive at the designated planet.
The person in charge of the Novice Battlefield this time was Zizikaba, who held a small position within the Myriad Clans Assembly. He had provided Ye Zhongming with a dossier on Novice Planet in advance.
This information wouldn’t provide Liang Chuyin and the others with any significant advantage; rather, it kept them from being at a disadvantage. Super large clans and even some medium races had various ways to obtain this information.
"When will Sister Xia Bai arrive?"
After looking over the materials, Liang Chuyin asked.
Among the four of them, Xia Bai's combat power was second only to the Yama Tree. During her burst phase, even the Yama Tree might not be able to match her. If she did not come, their squad's strength would significantly diminish.
Ye Zhongming shook his head. When he left, he had contacted the Library Palace, but since direct communication was not possible, he did not receive any response. He still didn’t know Xia Bai’s situation, whether she would come, or if she could make it in time.
The preparations he was making were without considering Xia Bai’s presence. If she could come, that would be ideal; but if she couldn’t, Liang Chuyin, Gao Yi, and Yama Tree, along with Ye Zhongming's arrangements, should be sufficient for them to enter the final competition.
As for the ultimate victory, it would depend on Liang Chuyin and the others' performance.
They conversed about the Novice Battlefield some more, and Ye Zhongming shared all the experiences he could think of.
Suddenly, the previously stable spacecraft's interior began flashing red lights, signaling an enemy encounter.
The few of them were in the command room and promptly activated the light barrier, discovering a sizable fleet without any markings rapidly approaching them from not too far away. Their craft had sent out its identification code, but there was no response, and direct communication was ignored.
The intention of this fleet was obvious.
"After being patient for so long, they finally decided to act against me," Ye Zhongming said without a hint of tension, instead chuckling lightly, commanding the spacecraft to flee quickly in one direction.
The pursuing fleet immediately followed suit.
Both sides engaged in a brief chase through the cosmos.
At this moment, the fleet's reports indicated... the enemy's speed was astonishing, far exceeding the maximum speed of their spacecraft, clearly indicating modifications.
The commander, after a moment of silence, had two thoughts in his mind. Upon receiving the news, his first instinct was that it was a trap.
