The Yan Army deployed a wedge formation, which is a battle formation in which the vanguard is shaped like a wedge. A wedge formation requires a sharp and swift vanguard and strong and powerful flanks. It can attack the enemy through the narrow front with an elite vanguard, break through and sever the enemy's formation, and expand the gains on the flanks. It is a formation that emphasizes offensive breakthroughs.

Simply put, this is the formation for an attack.

Ma Feifei had never seen what battles looked like between two armies in this world, so he didn't know whether the cone formation was something Luan Feng had learned from "The Art of War" or whether she already knew this formation.

However, Ma Feifei was certain that Luan Feng's move, which instantly elevated the combat power of 100,000 Yan Army to the Spirit Master realm, must have been something she had learned from "The Art of War".

Crown Prince Yan, who had been watching this scene from the corner, could no longer contain his excitement. He clenched his fists tightly and muttered something to himself.

The onlookers were already stunned, staring at the projection, and the surroundings were completely silent.

"Knock knock knock!"

"Waaaaah~~~"

As the bugle call sounded, the Qin Army and Yan Army charged towards each other.

The sight of hundreds of thousands of people clashing with each other was still quite shocking.

Dust and smoke rose, creating a magnificent spectacle, and everything in the world paled in comparison at that moment.

"Bang!"

The two armies clashed, producing a tremendous Tackle. From the outside, it looked as if the Yan Army, led by Luan Feng, had pierced the heart of the Qin Army like an awl.

With unstoppable momentum, they forged ahead fearlessly.

However, the Qin Army was slightly stronger than the Yan Army. Under the Qin Army's strong resistance, the Yan Army was unable to break through the Qin Army and was stuck inside.

"Waaah~~"

The Qin Army's bugle sounded, and then 100,000 Qin Army began to change formation, directly surrounding 100,000 Yan Army.

"It's over!" The cultivators outside felt a chill run down their spines upon seeing this scene.

Although they didn't understand military strategy, they could still grasp the situation. If the Yan Army had been able to break through the Qin Army in one fell swoop, Yan Army would have gained a significant advantage, perhaps even turning it into a victory. However, the Yan Army was now trapped, not only failing to break through the Qin Army but also being surrounded, becoming a cornered beast. This caused the Yan Army's situation to deteriorate rapidly, plunging them into a very dangerous predicament.

In a situation like this, attempting to break out from inside would inevitably result in heavy casualties.

"Why choose to charge directly? That's clearly not a wise move!" one of the cultivators who had just defeated Yan Army couldn't help but complain.

"Exactly! The Yan Army is inherently weaker than the Qin Army. At this point, they should set up a defensive formation, let the Qin Army charge, and then look for opportunities to counterattack while defending. Only then will they have a chance of winning." Another cultivator who had bet on the Yan Army to win chimed in.

"It's obvious she doesn't know how to fight. She can't even figure out such a simple problem. What a waste of my 20,000 Spirit Crystal. They've all gone down the drain. Sigh!" sighed another cultivator who had also bet on the Yan Army.

Upon hearing this person's comment, Ma Feifei couldn't help but curl his lip. Someone actually said that the God of War of War of Yan State couldn't fight...

"I wonder what she'll think if she hears this," Ma Feifei thought to herself, watching the Luan Feng on the projection screen wreaking havoc.

Ma Feifei didn't think Luan Feng was wrong in what she did.

The Yan Army was already somewhat weaker than the Qin Army. In a war like this, without any prior preparation, both sides could only rely on the combat capabilities and command abilities of their own armies.

In situations like this, it's actually a very dangerous approach for the weaker party to simply choose to defend.

Firstly, the Yan Army was no match for the Qin Army in terms of strength. Once they were on the defensive, it was questionable whether the Yan Army could even Protect the first wave of the Qin Army attacks. If they failed to Protect the first wave and were breached by the Qin Army, then the Hilbert be over.

Secondly, warfare is all about momentum. The side with the momentum often exerts invisible pressure on the enemy and gives itself courage and confidence.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Luan Feng's choice.

The system directly boosted the Qin Army's combat power to the Spirit Master Third Stage, but the system did not help Luan Feng increase her army's combat power. Instead, Luan Feng herself released a secret technique she had comprehended from "The Art of War," which improved the overall strength of the Yan Army and narrowed the gap with the Qin Army.

Without a system to help improve the army's strength, how to break this deadlock is Ma Feifei's biggest concern.

Just as Ma Feifei was pondering the next move for the Yan Army, Luan Feng on the battlefield suddenly stopped attacking, took the flag from the flag bearer, and began to wave it rhythmically.

Upon seeing this banner, the 100,000 Yan Army began to move, and the cone-shaped formation slowly evolved into a giant nine-square grid. Each square was further divided into countless smaller nine-square grids, and this process continued until only one person could stand in each square. Starting from the smaller nine-square grids, they intertwined with each other in a nine-square grid pattern, growing larger and larger, until finally evolving into a giant nine-square grid that was constantly moving.

'Pop~'

After the nine-square grid formation was formed, a silvery-white light suddenly flowed rapidly across the body of the 100,000-strong army; the morale of the 100,000 Yan Army seemed to slowly rise.

Just as everyone was puzzled by the Yan Army's sudden change of formation, the situation on the battlefield changed at that moment.

The nine-square grid formation directly disrupted the Qin Army's encirclement, reduced the Yan Army's casualties, and the situation began to reverse; the Yan Army, which had been gradually compressed, actually opened up the situation with this nine-square grid formation change, spreading outward step by step and constantly infiltrating the Qin Army.

Even though the Qin Army was stronger than the Yan Army overall, Qin Army was unable to withstand the change in the nine-square grid formation and began to show signs of collapse.

"This looks like the Nine-Character Interlocking Formation?" Ma Feifei said, puzzled, looking at the Yan Army's sudden change in formation.

Although Ma Feifei didn't know much about the Art of War, he had copied "The Art of War, and Ma Feifei still remembered some of the battle formations mentioned in it.

The practitioners outside the Bookstore, witnessing this scene, also began to offer their own perspectives.

"This tactical change is impressive! It actually reversed the disadvantage." The cultivator who had bet on Great Yan exclaimed excitedly.

"A formation derived from the nine-square grid, isn't mentioned in any military books?" said a cultivator who had studied military strategy.

"Who cares if it's mentioned in military books? As long as we win, that's all that matters," another cultivator who bet on Great Yan to win said happily. He didn't care about any messy formations; as long as the Yan Army won, he would get double the reward, which made him very happy.

On the other hand, the cultivators who had defeated Qin Army looked rather grim, staring at the projection with dark expressions.

Ma Feifei glanced at Yun Qingyang and noticed that she was also intently watching the battle on the projection screen. Her face was expressionless, but her hands were clenched into fists.

Ma Feifei subtly moved to the side.

The Qin Army seemed to have run out of tricks and gradually collapsed under the onslaught of the 'Nine-Character Interlocking Formation'. Luan Feng even transformed into a God of War, riding a white horse and wearing red clothes. Wherever her spear went, there were dead and wounded within a radius of a hundred meters!

The blood mingled with her red dress, making her appear like the Grim Reaper, relentlessly reaping the Qin Army.

We lost!

The Qin Army suffered a crushing defeat at the Norman of the Yan Army.

'Ding ding ding~'

Just then, golden light suddenly burst forth from the projection, followed by a beam of golden light shooting out, Luan Feng appeared before everyone.

'Ding ding ding~~'

The book "The Art of War" rose directly from inside the room, flew to the projection point, and shone with golden light, its pages turning continuously.

'Whoosh!'

A golden pillar shot out directly from "The Art of War" and struck the Luan Feng.

'Boom!'

A roar swept through the entire Dubian Town.

All the cultivators around the Luan Feng were blasted away.

'Eek~!'

A giant red bird, accompanied by Luan Feng, soared into the sky, reaching the highest heavens.

"The Sacred Beast Hong Luan!"
