Ten-Directional Mountain Suppression Reduced to Dust

The half-hour rest period vanished in an instant amid the thunderous clamor of the Azure Dragon Arena. After emergency repairs by high-level Soul Engineers and earth-element Soul Masters, the arena had been restored to a level surface, even sturdier than before, enough to withstand even more violent impacts. The Soul Guidance spotlights focused on the center, illuminating the area that would soon become the final battlefield in painstaking detail.

When the referee's booming voice echoed through the venue once more and announced that the ten-versus-ten team battle was about to begin, the audience's pent-up emotions erupted completely. Countless eyes fixed on the giant screen, where the final rosters of both sides slowly appeared.

Li Family ten-man team: Li Xuanbing (Level 72), Li Aotian (Level 72), Li Xiaochen (Level 72), Li Tianyin (Level 67), Li Huajun (Level 66), Li Xuanqing (Level 71), Li Longyue (Level 77), Li Xuanshu (Level 71), Li Qiuqiu (Level 71), Li Huayu (Level 67).

Thick Earth Sect ten-man team: Shi Lei (Level 74), Sun Hou (Level 68), Wang Yan (Level 68), Zheng Shan (Level 68), Zhou Yan (Level 69), Wu Lei (Level 69), Zhao Mang (Level 74), Qian Kun (Level 69), Zhou Ying (Level 69), Liu Wen (Level 67).

The instant the roster was revealed, the entire venue erupted in an uproar, though many seemed to have expected it.

"The Thick Earth Sect is really going all out! Even Captain Shi Lei, who's seriously injured, is fighting again!"

"And Sun Hou, Wang Yan, and the others are all injured too... This is a true last stand."

"On the Li Family's side... just as expected, Young Master Li Xuansheng and several others aren't fighting. It's still the same people from before."

"Even though the Li Family hasn't fielded all its main forces, this lineup is already terrifying enough!
