According to Yan Hua Yi Leng's calculations, as long as Misty Pavilion retained not too many fewer Combination Equipment Awakened Skills than the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances, they would have a strong chance of defending Wushuang City. Once Dongfang Shitian and his group had used two Combination Equipment Awakened Skills, even if Dark Night and Tokyo Myth joined them, they would only have three or four such skills left, not much more than Misty Pavilion.
Based on their previous analysis, one Combination Equipment Awakened Skill used while defending a city was worth two used in an assault. As such, as long as Misty Pavilion retained two Combination Equipment Awakened Skills, they could withstand the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances' siege. This was especially true because, after the alliance mobilized troops to surround Wushuang City and captured its outer walls, they would suffer considerable casualties and expend many resources under the sneak attacks of Misty Pavilion's Elite Squads. That would give Misty Pavilion an even better chance of holding Wushuang City. With that in mind, Yan Hua Yi Leng believed they could use one Combination Equipment Awakened Skill.
As for why Yan Hua Yi Leng cared so much about keeping Breaking Waves Riding Wind in second place, it was naturally because the rewards for second place were far better than those for third. In particular, the top two had a high chance of obtaining a Super * Heart of the City. As she had said before, obtaining another Super * Heart of the City would give Misty Pavilion a better chance of defending its Guild Headquarters. As long as they could hold their Guild Headquarters, they would have ample time to wear down the Dongfang Family and other Guild Alliances.
Of course, Yan Hua Yi Leng also knew
