E27 Parallel World.
After learning about the situation in this world, Ling Yi's face turned completely dark.
The Ancient Country of this world have dwindled to less than 2.2 million square kilometers.
This 2.2 million square kilometers now houses nearly 2 billion people from Ancient Country.
The reason for this is the junk black sphere floating in front of Ling Yi.
This is Duel Battlefield Space where historical generals clash, generated from the World Origin, and which was created by some unknown lunatic.
This thing appeared ten years ago.
The Duel Battlefield Space will appear once a year at 9:00 AM on January 1st.
Each time, one person will be randomly selected from each country to enter the battle arena.
Random pairings.
The method of the duel is very simple: select any famous general from your country's history. As long as the famous general actually exists, a card will be generated.
The outcome of the duel is determined by the battles fought by the famous Combat depicted in the cards.
The victorious side will receive half of the territory of the defeated side.
Logically speaking, with so many outstanding generals in our ancient history, our Ancient Country could easily dominate the entire world.
Unfortunately, almost all the historical records of the Ancient Country in this world have been lost.
Only a few scattered historical records have survived.
This is precisely why Ancient Country in the world know very little about their own historical generals, and many people only know their names but not their deeds, let alone their good or evil.
Ten years, ten decisive battles have occurred, and the Ancient Country has lost more than it has won, which has led to the current situation.
The reason why the history of this Ancient Country was erased is because of this damned black ball.
That is, the origin of the decisive battle space.
Unfortunately, even if Ling Yi knew the reason, he couldn't change anything. His Consciousness Clone could be omniscient in this world, but not omnipotent.
There are less than six hours until the next decisive battle space opens.
Ling Yi took a deep breath and said in an icy voice, "When I get the chance in Laozi future, I will definitely make this piece of trash disappear into nothingness."
Unfortunately, this trashy black sphere couldn't Perception Ling Yi's presence, and it couldn't hear Ling Yi's threats.
"Roar, ha, hey!" Ling Yi swung his fists at the Little Hei ball a few times.
Unfortunately, the fist only passed through the Little Hei sphere's body; it was of no use.
"Pah, ptooey!" Ling Yi spat at the thing before leaving the black sphere and randomly choosing a city to land in.
Although Ling Yi himself cannot take action, he can choose a Protagonist in this world to act on his behalf.
As for who will be the Protagonist?
Six hours later, whoever is chosen in the Duel Battlefield Space, Ling Yi will give them the cheat code.
Now, let's choose a gold finger made of cowhide...
Chen Ming, a student who has just graduated from high school.
Because of the large population and limited land, and the limited number of job opportunities, his parents had already been laid off by the company after the last duel battlefield.
For the past year, he could only barely make ends meet by doing odd jobs or relying on official relief.
At this moment, Chen Ming was holding a thin booklet and reciting the brief introductions of historical figures inside.
This is a booklet of historical figures that was sent out free of charge by the official organization.
The goal is to make everyone familiar with these historical figures, so that when it comes to the battlefield, they won't be at a loss as to which Martial General to choose.
" Qin Hui, around forty years old, Battle Power 12, melee Martial General!"
" Hu Hai, around twenty years old, Battle Power 8, melee Martial General!"
" Zhao Gao, around fifty years old, Battle Power 11, melee Martial General!"
" Hua Xiong, around thirty-five years old, Battle Power 45, melee Martial General!"
"..."
At this moment, Ling Yi's Consciousness Clone was right next to Chen Ming, listening to Chen Ming recite the so-called information about the Martial General, and wished he could tear the booklet to shreds.
This Ancient Country has a history of seven or eight thousand years, and they only recorded 32 historical Martial General?
Furthermore, were Qin Hui, Hu Hai, Zhao Gao even Martial General?
Where are Zhao Yun, Ma Chao, Lü Bu, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, and Huang Zhong? Not a single one of them!
It's practically off the Da Pu.
"Bang!" Chen Ming threw the booklet aside violently.
"The highest Battle Power is only 45, how the hell can we win? What's the use of memorizing it?" Chen Ming cursed.
Ling Yi said, "Most of these guys aren't even qualified to be Martial General!"
Unfortunately, Chen Ming couldn't hear it.
After a while, Chen Ming picked up the booklet again, sighed, and began to flip through the pages of the booklet again, looking at the Martial General recorded in it.
Ling Yi could sense the suppressed anger and helplessness in Chen Ming's heart.
Not only Chen Ming, but almost everyone around him shared the same sentiment.
The decisive battle has taken place nine times, and the various countries are now basically familiar with each other's general cards.
But it is precisely because of this understanding that people feel helpless.
Apart from Ancient Country, the histories of other countries are complete. Even the smallest country, as long as its history exceeds a thousand years, can easily produce a hundred or so Martial General cards.
Countries with shorter histories fared even worse, because the Duel Battlefield only recognizes ancient general cards; it does not recognize modern or contemporary general cards.
Take the Ugly Nation for example. It had zero Martial General cards. A year ago, after losing nine times in a row, this country was wiped out.
Since the advent of the Duel Battlefield, all nations have maintained a war-free environment.
The so-called war isolation means that all countries are not allowed to wage war against each other, nor are they allowed to reclaim territory through war.
According to the setting of the duel battlefield space, the black sphere will disappear and the war isolation will also disappear when only one country remains in this world.
Nonsense, if only one country remains, what's the point of its existence or disappearance due to war and isolation?
Ling Yi had nowhere else to go, so he just sat next to Chen Ming.
Six hours passed quickly.
At this moment, a black beam of light descended from the sky and landed directly on Chen Ming.
"Huh? What a coincidence!"
With a thought, Ling Yi followed the beam of black light and chased after it.
At the same time, a live-streamed battleground appeared on live-streaming platforms in all countries around the world.
However, people from different countries can only watch live streams from players in their own country.
Chen Ming never expected that the Duel Space would choose him this time.
But he really didn't want to be that player.
It wasn't that Chen Ming didn't love his country; rather, the Martial General he knew were simply too incompetent.
More importantly, the Ancient Country cannot afford to lose again.
I just hope that this time our opponent is a weaker country.
Each Duel Space is actually only the size of a football field.
When Chen Ming saw his opponent, his face became even uglier.
Not only him, but the viewers in the live stream also looked utterly hopeless.
The opposing player is a thin, old man who is less than 1.6 meters tall, wearing a Black Robe, and around sixty years old.
"Hahaha, damn it! I never thought I, Watanabe Fuji, would be so Luck!"
Ling Yi, standing next to Chen Ming, had an even uglier face than Chen Ming.
That wasn't even black anymore; it was a bluish-purple hue.
"Damn it, what kind of garbage world is this? The Ancient Country of this world were actually bullied by such a trash country?"
Ling Yi raised his hand, and a white Light Ball appeared in his palm. The next moment, he slammed it into Chen Ming's head.
" Chen Ming, give this little piece of trash a good beating!" Ling Yi roared.
Chen Ming naturally couldn't hear Ling Yi's words.
But at that moment, a series of "ding" sounds rang in his mind.
[Ding! The Historical Famous Generals System is binding to the host!]
[Ding, system binding successful!]
[Ding, abnormal data detected in the current world; the system is currently performing synchronization Correction.]

Han Xin, the famous general: Strength 85, Intelligence 108! [Click to select]
{Famous General Yue Fei: Strength 135, Intelligence 118!} [Click to Select]
Looking at the densely packed list of Martial General that seemed to stretch endlessly, Chen Ming was completely dumbfounded.
Chen Ming was naturally aware of the system; there were also online novels in this E27 World, and Chen Ming had read quite a few.
"System, could these all be famous historical generals from our Ancient Country?"
[Ding, yes, host, countdown 22 seconds, please make your choice of your main Martial General as soon as possible!]
Upon hearing the system's reply, Chen Ming's eyes were not just shining, they were practically blazing with fire.
Without any hesitation, he chose Li Yuanba.
A combat power of 208 is just too good to pass up.
As for intelligence, this Duel Space is just a game of brute force between Martial General, what need is there for intelligence?
Besides, he himself is quite intelligent.
[Ding, congratulations on successfully selecting your chosen Martial General. Would you like to Fusion now?]
"No Fusion for now!"
There has never been a situation where players participate in Combat in the Duel Space; it's not that it's not allowed, but simply that it has never happened.
Moreover, he didn't know if uncontrollable situations would arise once Fusion his natal Martial General.
[Ding! The Military General Space has been fully unlocked for the host, and the Reputation Shop Function has also been added.]
[Ding, have fun, host!]
"Hehe!" After looking at the list of Martial General in the [ Military General Space ], Chen Ming looked at the short guy in the distance and laughed cruelly.
The duel arena is divided into two Combat: one is a one-on-one duel Martial General, and the other is a team free-for-all.
One-on-one duels are self-explanatory.
Team battles involve selecting 5 Zhang Wu cards and engaging in a chaotic battle with the opponent's 5 Martial General until one side's Martial General are all defeated.
At this moment, a 10-second countdown appeared in the sky above the Duel Space.
Chen Ming made a grabbing motion in the Void, and Martial General card with a black and gold back and Martial General's image engraved on the front appeared in Chen Ming hand.
Meanwhile, viewers in the live stream also saw the information about the Martial General.
However, viewers can only see the appearance and name of the Martial General, but not their specific rank or surname.
This is a Martial General dressed in silver helmet and armor, wielding a silver spear, and riding a white horse.
Although this Martial General looks handsome and dashing, the audience doesn't recognize him.
I don't recognize him; he's just Wuming Martial General. What use could Wuming Martial General be?
Many people even thought that this guy named Chen Ming must not have memorized the list of famous generals, otherwise how could he not even know how to choose Martial General?
Immediately, some sensitive viewers started hurling insults at the viewers in the live stream.
