Chapter 57 Synchronous Ranking
attacking, truly terrifying. 。Each opponent individually is quite strong, a hundred of them joining forces, even top-tier contestants like Xu Jingming and Fang Yu during the competition would have to...Five people, Xu Jingming among them, transformed into five streaks of light and landed in a deserted wilderness.
"Hm" Xu Jingming looked ahead. In the vast wilderness, a massive alien army was advancing in the distance.
“The Li Mu team, in the qualifying round, your weapons and equipment can be supplied indefinitely, but your physical exertion and injuries cannot be recovered through the system before the end of the qualifying round. Please allocate your stamina reasonably.” A voice echoed in the ears of Xu Jingming and his five companions. “In five minutes, the orc legion ahead will launch an attack! What you have to do is completely eliminate this orc legion.”
"The Orc Legion consists of one thousand Orc soldiers. The number of soldiers killed by each participating team will be publicly displayed in real time!"
"Slay all the beastmen soldiers, and the beastman legion shall be considered destroyed."
"Remember, only the top thirty fastest teams will qualify for the main competition."
Xu Jingming and five others immediately began preparing their weapons and equipment.
"Five people against an entire legion" Wang Yi said, "Fortunately, weapons and equipment are supplied endlessly, otherwise so many arrows wouldn't be carried."
"Pay attention to the reasonable allocation of physical strength," Xu Jingming said. "Everyone must wear armor, don't wear leather armor at all costs. I can see... there are quite a few archers among the orc legion's cavalry."
“They are cavalry archers,” Yang Qingxiao nodded solemnly. “And there are heavy cavalry too, what kind of mounts were those generals riding Such enormous steeds!”
Xu Jingming and his companions carefully selected their equipment and weapons while keeping a close watch on the orc legion in the distance.
The Beastmen have brown skin and hideous faces. They are mostly infantry! There are also snow wolf light cavalry armed with bows and arrows, and even more fearsome heavy cavalry. And vaguely visible among them are several leaders, all riding massive earth dragons.
At this moment, the orc army is also observing the five humans. The general has already begun to order his men.
……
The Xia Guo official livestream now has over 1 billion viewers! It can be said that at this late hour, most people in Xia Guo are watching the Xia Guo official livestream.
"There are 821 divine-tier teams," host Liu Xin said. "Each divine-tier team needs to eliminate one orc legion. Only the top 30 teams that complete this fastest will enter the main competition. They'll have the opportunity to battle against teams led by Teacher Liu Hai and Teacher Lei Yunfang."
"This election mechanism is quite interesting," Liu Hai nodded and commented, "All participating teams' kills are synchronized and public. That means every team knows how many others have killed. Even if a team is hiding its strength...they still have to ensure they stay within the top 30!"
"Outside the top thirty, things get much riskier and more intense. Even if you wipe out a beastman legion, beyond the top thirty, elimination still awaits." Lei Yun nodded. "And it seems this beastman legion is no easy opponent either."
"I can tell the two teachers," Liu Xin looked at the materials in his hand and smiled, "The design difficulty of the Orc Legion is that most god-level teams will be wiped out, and the pass rate is controlled at about 10%."
"One tenth" Liu Hai and Lei Yun both nodded slightly.
"If you risk it for speed, the passing rate might decrease even further." Liu Xin said, "Of course there will still be thirty teams who pass! Please trust in the calculation ability of the virtual world system."
"Alright, the Orc army's attack has officially begun!" Liu Xin looked at the live broadcast scene behind him.
***
On the barren plain, there was nothing to shield from view.
On one side were Xu Jingming and his five companions, on the other, the orc legion.
"Orc horde attack countdown, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6……3, 2, 1!"
At the very moment the countdown ended——
I saw a commander in the orc army far away, waving his sword towards Xu Jingming and them from afar, issuing commands in orcish.
Suddenly, the orc infantry began to charge forward with a thunderous roar, and the snow wolf light cavalry also moved. These light cavalry split into two groups, flanking Xu Jingming and his companions on both sides.
"Whoosh!" The snow wolf light cavalry on both sides simultaneously drew their bows and fired arrows.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!
Xu Jingming and his five companions had a taste of what it meant to be "showered with arrows". At the same time, three hundred arrows fell simultaneously. Xu Jingming and his group were also moving, unwilling to become live targets. Dozens of arrows landed in their area.
"Raise your shields!" Xu Jingming, Liu Chongyuan, Heng Fang, and Yang Qingshuo all raised their shields, completely blocking the area above and protecting the entire team.
Only the sound of crackling and arrows hitting leg armor, clanging.
"Fortunately, they were just ordinary arrows. If they had been armor-piercing arrows shot by a divine archer, we would be in trouble." Yang Qingxue said.
"Three hundred mounted archers, if each one were comparable to a god-tier sharpshooter, only the captain might be able to resist them. The rest of us would be done for." Heng Fang said.
"The infantry will be here soon, Yi Jie. Then it's up to you." Xu Jingming said.
"Don't worry." Wang Yi nodded.
The archers had pressed the horde back for three waves, and finally the orc infantry was within reach. The arrows from afar ceased, for if they continued firing, they would endanger their own troops.
"Here they come." Xu Jingming and Liu Chongyuan, both wielding two shields, were responsible for protecting the team, mainly the archer Wang Yi! With so many beast soldiers, using two shields simultaneously was more appropriate.
Heng Fang held a serpent spear, while Yang Qingxue wielded a silver lance. The two of them were responsible for killing the beastmen soldiers that got close.
"Roar!!"
These beastly soldiers roared as they charged forward, and in an instant, more than ten beastly soldiers attacked simultaneously.
Most of them were spear thrusts! There were also chain hammers thrown, and flying axes smashing out, all falling towards Xu Jingming and the others.
"Bang bang!" Xu Jingming blocked left and right with his twin shields, sending the beastmen staggering back on one side and crashing to the ground on the other. Liu Chong, wielding two larger shields in each hand, also held off a group of beastmen soldiers.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Wang Yi began her archery rapid fire, pulling the bow only halfway before releasing, each time shooting three arrows simultaneously!
Three arrows shot forth! In a blink of an eye, nine arrows appeared!
What was most terrifying was that each arrow struck the beastman soldier's skull.
Wang Yi's face was expressionless. Each time she drew an arrow and shot, there was a rhythm to her movements. The only time there was a pause was when the quiver of arrows ran out, and she had to wait for the virtual world system to replenish it with a new one. At all other times, she shot with relentless efficiency.
"Yi Jie is so amazing." Yang Qingxue shouted.
"Yo, Sister Yi is amazing!" Heng Fang laughed, wielding his snake spear. Yang Qingxue, with her long spear in hand, focused on eliminating the beast soldiers who got too close.
While Wang Yi's arrows flew swiftly, slaughtering the soldiers, Heng Fang and Yang Qing Shuo naturally had it easier. Xu Jing Ming and Liu Chong Yuan only needed to protect their teammates.
Wow!
A massive horde of beast soldiers, like waves crashing upon the shore, relentlessly attacked Xu Jingming's troops. Wave after wave surged forward, threatening to overwhelm them entirely!
Xu Jingming's team was like a 'rock' under the impact of a giant wave, resisting the frenzied attacks of the beast people.
Xu Jingming looked up.
High above, the kill counts for all teams were clearly displayed.
First: Zhou Yi's Team (Captain Zhou Yi), with 205 kills.
Second: Fairy Style Team (Captain Zhang Qing), with 183 kills.
……
Fifth: Lǐmù Team (Captain Xu Jǐngmíng), kills 152.
Sixth: Tianyin Team (Captain Zhuang Ziyu), 139 kills.

Nineteenth: Squad (Captain Fang Yu), 98 enemies killed.

……
821: Happy Team (Captain Pang Yun), Kills 12
The kill counts of all teams in the sky were constantly jumping, and the rankings were also changing. The main focus of most teams was still the top thirty. years. Upon his return, he fought his way back into the world top four. This time, with a fractured left arm, he has been forced to retire again.What most impresses the martial arts world is that, de...
