The match resumed at 2 PM.
There are still differences in strength among the six teams.
The first match is going to be very exciting!
The Forsaken Squad versus the Silver Hand Squad.
Holy Light is the enemy of Shadow and the enemy of the Undead. Holy Light deals double damage to the Undead. Paladin and Priest, on a certain level, completely suppress the Undead. However...
Water can extinguish fire, but it depends on how much water is available.
The Silver Hand squad's leader is Korfax, the " Champion of the Holy Light " from the Brotherhood of the Light, a veteran High-Ranking Paladin. The squad also includes a high-ranking assassin, a high-ranking Priest, a high-ranking mage, and another High-Ranking Paladin.
The all-high-level squad is actually not considered the strongest among all squads, and is even weaker than some eliminated squads, such as the Warsong Clan squad.
The reason they were able to advance to the top six was because they were lucky; their first opponent was the Darkspear team, which was ranked last among all the teams.
The Darkspear Tribe only has two or three thousand members; they can't possibly find many strong individuals. Vol'jin can't very well go into battle himself, can he? Or should he send Rokhan to bully the younger generation?
Even if Rokhan himself were to fight, he might not be able to win, since there is only one Rokhan among the Darkspear Trolls, and the other Darkspear elites are far inferior.
Now they've encountered the Forsaken squad. Despite their natural advantage, the Silver Hand squad was still defeated, not even lasting two minutes!
Thassarian and Koltira easily held off two High-Ranking Paladin. High-ranking mages were no match for high-ranking Undead, high-ranking Priest were no match for the Lich, and high-ranking assassins were no match for Master Onias.
Complete suppression; they had no power to resist whatsoever.
This match is not worth watching.
Uther's expression wasn't good, Tirion Fordring was alright, Old Mograine looked ashen.
The Order of the Silver Hand, the undisputed top-ranked elite army in the entire Eastern Kingdoms, boasting over 15,000 soldiers and 3,000 Paladin, are practically the regular army of Lordaeron. How could the warriors they select be so inferior?
It can be said that the Order of the Silver Hand represent two-thirds of the military strength of Lordaeron and represent the face of Lordaeron!
In fact, the Silver Hand has many powerful figures, including several Grand Knight, one Archmage, one Master Assassin, more than one Bishop-level Priest, not to mention four Legendary Paladin.
The Kingdom of Lordaeron boasts a far greater number of Legendary than any other nation in the Alliance, with only Quel'Thalas coming close, even including the two Kael'thas took to Outland.
Unfortunately, these people are mostly leaders of their respective regions, and it's impossible for them to come and participate, which led to today's defeat.
Uther's gaze occasionally fell on Jiang Jie.
The Silver Hand squad has been defeated; the honor of Lordaeron can only be defended by the Stromgarde squad!
But the one who defeated the Silver Hand squad was actually Forsaken supported by the Grand Duke...
Why do I feel so down?
I really want to beat the Grand Duke up!
"Grand Duke, Highlord Mograine has sent me to tell you that this match must be won!"
As the voice of Archmage Angela reached his ears, Jiang Jie smiled slightly.
Will we win?
Such a simple requirement...
In the second match, Team Kor'kron faced off against Team Kirin Tor.
The Kirin Tor squad is quite strong overall, and its equipment is only comparable to that of the Quel'Thalas squad.
Their previous victory over the Quel'Thalas squad has already demonstrated their formidable strength.
But their enemy is stronger.
The Kor'kron, said to be an ancient Orcs tradition, consisted of elite guards who obeyed only the Orcs Warchief, and had once disappeared.
After Thrall became Warchief, he rebuilt the Kor'kron Guard.
Although the number of people in this unit is not large so far, every member of it is an elite among elites.
After all, being qualified to Kor'kron the Kor'kron is considered the highest honor by the Orcs!
The supreme commander of Kor'kron is the Warchief himself.
However, it is said that the actual commander of this force was High Overlord Saurfang, a Legendary Orcs Warrior strength was said to be no less than that of Grom. This squad was indeed very strong, and when they fought against a mixed squad from the Seventh Legion of Theramore, they almost suffered heavy losses.
In fact, the Seventh Legion's mixed squad, composed of humans, Dwarves, and High Elf, comprised five classes from three races. They cooperated seamlessly and possessed formidable overall strength, ultimately resulting in Kor'kron's narrow victory.
In fact, the Seventh Legion is very strong. After all, they have been tempered by Mount Hyjal and have experienced too many wars with demons. Those who survived are not all elites, but at least they are veterans.
But the Seventh Legion's strength lies in its overall strength, not in its individuals.
In fact, overall strength is true strength.
An invincible elite force is more valuable than a few Legendary!
In comparison, the Kirin Tor squad was clearly much weaker than the Theramore mixed squad, and was defeated by the Kor'kron squad within minutes.
Then came the third match: Stromgarde Squad versus Tauren Squad.
The Tauren squad is very strong!
These behemoths are both Warrior and Shaman, capable of wielding the power of the earth and summoning the Ancestral Spirit, making them very difficult to deal with.
The squad leader is Baine Bloodhoof, son of the Tauren chieftain Cairne Bloodhoof, another remarkable character, a young hero who, in another ten or twenty years, may become as powerful as his father.
However...
They encountered the Stromgarde Squad and White Gorilla suffering from anxiety due to not fighting for a long time.
The moment the nearly four-meter-tall White Gorilla entered the arena, the Tauren felt their breathing quicken.
When the White Gorilla swung the Arcanite Greatsword, they immediately realized:
There's no need to even play this match; they've already lost!
Who would have thought that this monster, who was as tall as a two-story building when he stood up, was actually a martial artist, and Xiantian martial artist who was proficient in both swordsmanship and fist techniques!
In terms of martial arts skills alone, more than half of Jiang Jie's disciples are not as good as him.
There's no way to fight!
They didn't even have time to break through the White Gorilla's Earth Shield before they were defeated by the White Gorilla. The whole process took less than a minute!
If Jiang Jie hadn't intervened in time and slapped the White Gorilla away, the Tauren would probably all be dead, not a single one left...
Darion and his three companions had no chance to make a move, and each of them held their weapons and smiled bitterly.
With the White Gorilla around, why would we need them?
The purpose of forming a five-person team was to assassinate the Legendary leaders of the Scourge, but the White Gorilla itself is a living Legendary; it's capable enough on its own, why would it need help from others?
Even among Legendary, it's not the worst, is it?
Ultimately, under collective protest from both the Alliance and the Horde, Jiang Jie had no choice but to kick the aggrieved-looking White Gorilla out of the five-person team, after all, the gorilla's reasons were quite valid:
How can a giant White Gorilla assassinate someone?
You can see it from several kilometers away, okay?
If it were actually thrown into Icecrown Glacier, it would probably be met with assassination attempts by the Scourge... no, it would be directly surrounded and annihilated by a large army.
Not only will it not survive, it will also endanger others!
Left with no other option, Jiang Jie had to send another apprentice who hadn't made it to the competition.
Although they didn't make the cut, their strength is still quite good; they're at the Houtian Tenth Layer, just one step away from the Xiantian.
After a short rest and recovery, the match between the Stromgarde Squad and the Tauren Squad resumed.
Then, Baine Bloodhoof was utterly desperate!
