In the Space-time Fortress.
A piece of news, like an earthquake, sent shockwaves through all the surviving universe-level teams on the battlefield.
The Human Race's Tongfeng Team had been discovered and ambushed by the Demon Race's Sixth Royal Lineage Team!
A powerful universe-level general, Li Ze, had appeared in Tongfeng Team!
Li Ze had unleashed his strength and killed most of the Demon Race Sixth Royal Lineage Team's members!
Only two Demon Race royal lineage universe-level fighters remained in the Sixth Royal Lineage Team!
The Human Race communication channel was boiling over, with messages appearing and vanishing rapidly.
"Quick, look at the score rankings! Tongfeng Team has taken first place on both the individual and team rankings!" Someone sent a message into the channel, along with screenshots of the scoreboards.
Individual Scoreboard (493727/1000000) 1. Li Ze (5th Legion 1st Brigade Tongfeng Team): 17,409 points 2. Feng He (1st Legion 1st Brigade Lanmeng Team): 7,369 points 3. Yuting Tu (46th Legion 1st Brigade Jiuming Team): 6,992 points 4. Nether Frog Si (71st Legion 1st Brigade 7th Team): 6,317 points
On the Individual Scoreboard, Li Ze had killed eight Demon Race royal lineage universe-level fighters when he unleashed his strength against the Sixth Royal Lineage Team. As a result, he received all the points lost by the Sixth Royal Lineage Team, soaring past 17,000 points in one stroke—far beyond second place.
Team Scoreboard (7972/13000) 1. 5th Legion First Brigade Tongfeng Team: 22,163 points 2. 71st Legion 1st Brigade 7th Team: 17,639 points 3. 1st Legion 1st Brigade Lanmeng Team: 16,332 points 4. 46th Legion 1st Brigade Jiuming Team: 11,649 points
On the team rankings, Tongfeng Team had instantly gained more than 12,000 points and surged into first place.
"Whoa! This Li Ze shot straight to first place in points. If our Human Race wins this time, he'll have made a fortune!"
"Exactly. Li Ze is so far ahead of Feng He in second place that he's definitely taking first!"
"Not necessarily. There are still nearly four months left in the Sacred Mountain Battle. The later it gets, the more points the surviving alien race teams will carry. The rankings will definitely change."
"I think Li Ze has no problem taking first. Think about it—he killed most of the Demon Race Sixth Royal Lineage Team by himself. His strength is unquestionably terrifying. Even if killing alien races earns more points later on, Li Ze can keep earning them!"
The Human Race communication channel was incredibly lively.
Atop a towering Great Tree, a human with hair shimmering in multiple dazzling colors and a pair of multicolored wings growing from his back was reading the messages on his communicator, his eyes gleaming.
"Boss, that Li Ze has surpassed your points!" a werewolf soldier beside him said.
"That's right, Boss. We have to find a way to win it back!"
"First place can't be stolen from us!"
The other soldiers in the team also transmitted their thoughts to him.
"What are you all thinking? Li Ze got first place because he's powerful. First place was never mine to begin with. Besides, we should be happy to have such a powerful Human Race comrade. Only then can we surpass the other two races in points and achieve final victory!" the human with multicolored wings told his teammates.
After replying, he no longer transmitted his thoughts to them, but the excitement in his eyes only grew stronger.
This person was Feng He, who had originally held first place on the Individual Scoreboard and now ranked second.
I thought there would be no chance to kill that Demon Race Royal Clan Team on this battlefield, but I never expected the Human Race to produce a Li Ze. Now that plan of mine should be possible to complete!
Feng He then looked at the score rankings and began sending invitations to Tongfeng Team, 71st Legion 1st Brigade 7th Team, Jiuming Team, and other teams near the top of the rankings.
While the Human Race communicator was filled with heated discussion, the Demon Race communicators were also hit as if by an earthquake.
"What happened? Why has the Sixth Royal Lineage Team disappeared from the rankings?"
"Yeah, I just checked. Only their captain, Lu Kan, and Zi Ci of the Shadow Rat royal lineage are still alive?"
"What else could it be? They were killed."
"Who killed them? Do the Human Race or Mechanical Race have any universe-level teams capable of directly killing one of our royal lineage teams?"
"Could they have been besieged by numerous teams from other races?"
Messages flashed through the Demon Race communication channel. Some were shocked, some were gloating, and some were analyzing the situation.
All kinds of messages became a chaotic mess.
At the same time, within another information channel made up of Royal Clan and royal lineage members.
"Lu Kan, what happened? Who defeated you?" A member of a Royal Clan Team directly asked in the group.
"Human Race Tongfeng Team." The deer-shaped demon, Lu Kan, captain of the Demon Race Sixth Royal Lineage Team, had already located Zi Ci in a hidden area of the Space-time Fortress based on the information Zi Ci had sent. Having severed his tail to survive, Zi Ci was gravely injured, and his aura had weakened to its lowest point.
As Lu Kan cared for Zi Ci, he replied to messages through the communicator.
"Tongfeng Team should be outside the Human Race's top ten. They could kill you? What losses did they suffer?" another Royal Clan Team member asked.
"Strictly speaking, the one who defeated us wasn't Tongfeng Team, but one member of Tongfeng Team! He killed eight members of our team by himself," Lu Kan replied through the communicator. When he thought of that human figure, like a god of slaughter, a trace of fear flashed through his eyes.
"How is that possible?"
"With that kind of strength, only the boss of our Royal Clan Team should be able to do it!"
"This has to be false information."
"Can you explain the battle in detail?"
"Yes, let us understand it too. Then we can avoid them if we encounter them later!"
After Lu Kan sent that message, the communicator seemed to fall silent for an instant. Then messages from numerous Royal Clan and royal lineage members appeared one after another.
Looking at the flood of questions in the communicator, Lu Kan felt bitter, but he did not dare delay. He sent them the details of the battle.
"It seems that the human from Tongfeng Team really is extremely powerful!"
"Yeah. We thought this Sacred Mountain Battle would be an easy victory, but the Human Race actually produced a universe-level genius with this kind of strength. It looks like the Sacred Mountain Battle is going to face unexpected twists!"
"Based on Lu Kan's account, our royal lineage teams are simply no match for the Human Race's Tongfeng Team! We should avoid them as much as possible in the future!"
After reading Lu Kan's account, the many demons all expressed their amazement.
"Lu Kan, where are you now? How is Zi Ci? Can he still use his tracking talent? We're coming to find you two." Suddenly, the captain of a Royal Clan Team, who had remained silent until then, sent a message.
"Meng Yun, Zi Ci and I are currently in P419 Region. The exact coordinates are XXXXX, XXXXX. Zi Ci is seriously injured and recovering from his wounds. Why are you coming over now?"
"Wait for us. We'll set out immediately. Stay in contact at all times. That human from Tongfeng Team is too great a threat. We need to surround and kill him in advance, to prevent any accidents in the Sacred Mountain Battle," Meng Yun, the Royal Clan Team captain, replied.
With Meng Yun's response, a plan targeting Li Ze began to unfold within the Demon Race.
Mechanical Race communication space.
In terms of technology, the Mechanical Race far surpassed the Human Race and Demon Race. Before entering the Space-time Fortress, miniature virtual spaces had been implanted into the communicators of the many universe-level fighters, allowing their consciousness to manifest as physical forms within the virtual space.
Across the entire universe, the Mechanical Race possessed the highest technological level. Only the great Virtual Universe created by the Original Ancestor allowed the Human Race to surpass the Mechanical Race. In every other technological field, the Human Race lagged far behind the Mechanical Race.
"According to the information, most members of the Demon Race Sixth Royal Lineage Team were killed in their battle against the Human Race's Tongfeng Team," a well-informed Mechanical Race universe-level general said to his clansmen in the virtual space.
"Keep a close watch on Tongfeng Team. Surround and kill them if necessary!" ordered one of the Mechanical Race leaders responsible for this Sacred Mountain Battle.
The Mechanical Race was different from the Human Race.
Its racial structure resembled a pyramid, with higher-ranking Mechanical Race members controlling lower-ranking ones. Every Mechanical Race member had a master, and all of them were ultimately controlled by the Mechanical Father God at the pyramid's peak.
The Mechanical Race itself was like a massive machine, with every Mechanical Race member serving as one component of that machine.
For this Sacred Mountain Battle, the Mechanical Race higher-ups had handed temporary command over all participants to a universe-level general. Thus, although the Mechanical Race did not have any especially powerful individual universe-level fighters in this Sacred Mountain Battle, with Mechanical Puppets and unified command, their points were not far behind those of the Human Race and Demon Race.
While the Three Races were all discussing Tongfeng Team.
"Move!"
After Tongfeng Team finished cleaning up the battlefield, they took Han Fu and the other injured teammate, who had already awakened and were recovering from their wounds, and swiftly left the area.
Although they had gained tremendous rewards after killing the Demon Race Sixth Royal Lineage Team, everyone in Tongfeng Team had also expended a great deal.
They had now become a force that every universe-level team in the entire Space-time Fortress took seriously. To avoid becoming a target for all and being besieged by numerous alien race teams.
After cleaning up the battlefield, they flew toward a distant location without hesitation.
Half an hour later, Tongfeng Team had traveled more than ten thousand kilometers away from that area.
They found the nearest building that had not yet collapsed and arranged the Starry Sky Spirit around the surrounding area.
After entering the building, Captain Lairui'er released a rest cabin made of D-grade metal. Having learned from their previous ambush, Tongfeng Team decided to deploy the rest cabin every time they rested. That way, even if another team ambushed them again, it could absorb part of the damage and prevent them from being so passive.
Once everyone entered the rest cabin, the nerves that had been tense throughout the journey finally relaxed.
"Hehe! Li Ze, you've become famous throughout the entire Space-time Fortress this time. The communicators are all talking about you!" As soon as she sat down, Jirui Yu said to Li Ze with a giggle.
"Not just Li Ze. Our Tongfeng Team has become famous throughout the entire Space-time Fortress too. We've all benefited from Li Ze's glory," Shantuo said excitedly.
Everyone else also spoke with smiles on their faces.
"Captain, let's see what we gained. That Demon Race team was made up of royal lineage members after all. Their items should be useful to all of us," Li Ze said. Seeing everyone constantly talking about him, especially Jirui Yu and the other women, who would not stop for even a moment, gave him a headache, so he hurriedly changed the subject.
At Li Ze's words, everyone's eyes lit up as they looked toward Lairui'er.
