Note From Developer: I’m a big fan of Chinese web novels, but I often came across great stories with poor translations. That’s why I started this website! My goal is to make this the best web novel translation site out there. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out on Discord or Instagram.

What to do? Everyone's gaze turned to Liang Chuyin.
The movement behind had already been noticed. The two elite teams on the other side had increased their speed significantly after discarding some 'ordinary newbies'. If no changes were made, they would be caught up in about ten minutes.
Should they turn back and deal with them?
This thought had crossed Liang Chuyin's mind more than once, but she knew that was exactly what the enemy wanted—to hold them back. If the Cloud Summit faction did that, they might be able to manage it for a while, but they would definitely be chased down by the other members of the two camps. At that point, it would be a one against two situation, which was essentially a certain death.
"I want to deal with Qabinger," Cave Holder suddenly said beside her. Seeing the others who were running while looking at him, this rookie who had already broken away from the Dwarf Camp continued, "Do you think he's feeling good about this?"
The others were taken aback. Upon reflection, it truly seemed that way. That guy had fought against the Su Clan before. It's worth noting that on the outside, the two sides were allies; not only did he refuse to help his ally, but he also went out of his way to challenge them.
You certainly didn't kill any members of the Su Clan, but that was because you didn't win. If you had won, would you have not killed them?
What was Qabinger's intention in challenging them? It couldn't have been for points, as the few members of the Su Clan had not garnered many. So, it must have been to establish his authority.
Using allies to show off for his own reputation was indeed a detestable act.
When the Su Clan members heard Cave Holder's words, their eyes widened, and they expressed their willingness to help.
Liang Chuyin looked around and saw eager expressions on everyone's faces.
Yes, these were all rookies who had just entered the formal warrior system. They cared deeply about their reputation in combat, their skill upgrades, and how they were viewed by the outside world and their own clan.
Rationality told her to keep running, to drag things out for as long as possible. Even if they were caught by two elite teams, they should try to increase the distance from their main force. With little time left, they could fight and retreat, hoping to hold out until the rookie battlefield ended.
But clearly, that was not what everyone wanted to see.
In fact, for Liang Chuyin and those who were destined to be cultivated, they didn't quite understand the feelings of these rookies who were eager to be valued after making a name for themselves.
"My people and Cave Holder will go to deal with the Lena People. The brothers from the Su Clan will follow us, but Qabinger's team belongs to us. The Su Clan brothers will go around behind them, set up some defensive formations, and then leave. Every moment they can delay is worthwhile. You all, go deal with that team from Hall Planet."
Zhang Jia stepped forward and then looked at the others. "The rest of you should leave first. If we lose, then don’t go to your deaths. If we win, it won’t matter if you go."
This was somewhat insulting, but in a universe where strength was paramount, stating facts was something that had to be accepted.
Liang Chuyin thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
Since her companions were so confident, there was no reason for her to lose faith.
However, she still chose a team to accompany the Su Clan and protect them while they set up their formations.
Once the decision was made, everyone immediately sprang into action.
Seeing the Cloud Summit members move, those in front of the light barrier rallied their spirits. Everyone knew this sudden turn meant one thing.
They were going to fight!
The two small teams from the Cloud Summit simultaneously targeted the elite teams opposite them.
……
Cave Holder looked at Qabinger in front of him and suddenly recalled a saying he'd learned these days from several Cloud Summit members—true villains and false gentlemen; he probably was the true villain, while the guy opposite must be the false gentleman.
