Below the platform for exposition.
The crowd watched as the people from the Spirit Immortal Palace did not move, but simply assumed a defensive stance to resist the attack from Ye Qiubai and his group of four.
This left many people puzzled.
In team battles, besides teamwork and individual skill, there is another crucial factor.
That is rhythm.
Once one side gains control of the rhythm in a team battle, the side that doesn't control the rhythm will fall into a disadvantageous position.
Even if someone is stronger, they will still be suppressed!
certainly.
This refers to stronger overall strength, but the overall gap won't be too large and will remain within a controllable range.
If it's too strong, then there's no need to talk about mastering the rhythm; just strike directly and shatter all illusions!
How do you master the rhythm?
Generally, the person who attacks first gains the initiative.
Ye Qiubai knew that the people of the Spirit Immortal Palace were from a hidden sect.
In fact, its strength is probably even greater than that of Heavenly Sword Peak.
Therefore, what he needed to do was to use the Sword Domain as cover to allow Chu Lan and the other two to launch a quick attack. This would serve two purposes: first, to test the opponent's strength and fighting style, and second, to gain the initiative.
In this way, it can, to some extent, compensate for the disadvantage of having a lower overall strength.
Watching this scene from below, Xiao Hei asked, " Junior Brother Mu, something feels a little off?"
Although Xiao Hei never uses his brain in combat—in his view, why bother thinking if you can solve a problem with one punch—...
This results in Xiao Hei having a significant advantage in subconscious perception during combat.
Mu Fusheng also frowned slightly.
"Logically speaking, in team battles, everyone tries to seize the initiative, but Spirit Immortal Palace didn't do that..."
" Lin Zhinan chose the team competition himself; he couldn't possibly be unaware of its importance..."
However, the four people from the Spirit Immortal Palace did not make any move, but simply assumed a defensive stance.
What are the reasons behind this?
Even Mu Fusheng couldn't discern the other party's intentions for the time being.
Only the Su Clan, the Avici Purgatory, and the Blue Heaven and Yellow Springs Hall, all reclusive forces, remained unaffected.
They had long heard of Lin Zhinan's reputation.
He had his reasons for doing so.
Every step was calculated!
now.
On the platform for exchanging ideas.
Ye Qiubai used his Sword Domain to cover Chu Lan and the others' attack.
Among them, Zhuang Zidong ran into Gu Xi directly, while Chu Lan and Chi Bing faced off against the other two members of the Spirit Immortal Palace, Yao Jiuhua and Chen Haoxian, respectively.
Ye Qiubai raised the Primordial Immortal Sword in his hand, stood opposite Lin Zhinan, and slashed at Lin Zhinan with his sword!
Lin Zhinan smiled slightly.
He raised the folding fan in his hand.
A whirlwind suddenly rose from nowhere!
They blocked Ye Qiubai's path!
At the same time, his other three sides were completely surrounded!
Ye Qiubai frowned slightly, trying to sense the outside world, but found that these four whirlwinds not only swept up the dust around him, obstructing his vision, but also had an unknown force that hindered his perception!
As the commander of Heavenly Sword Peak.
Losing control over the outside world is fatal.
Therefore, Ye Qiubai did not hesitate at all and directly used the first sword of the Primordial Immortal Sword!
Using all his strength, he cleaved through the surrounding whirlwind!
In this contest, it was also discovered that Lin Zhinan had reached the Early Turbid Immortal Realm.
However, its actual combat capability doesn't seem to be very strong.
But, at the moment he cleaved it open...
But to their horror, Zhuang Zidong, who was facing off against Gu Xi, was suddenly struck by her powerful strength and was blasted away by a single palm strike!
Zhuang Zidong's expression changed drastically. He could no longer stop the sword that was charging forward, so he had no choice but to forcefully gather his energy and unleash his full power to clash with it!
However, Gu Xi blasted away this sword with a palm strike.
Zhuang Zidong's longsword was knocked aside, and as his chest was wide open, Gu Xi stepped forward and unleashed another palm strike!
Zhuang Zidong was sent flying off the debating platform!
Zhuang Zidong lay on the ground, not seriously injured, clearly indicating that his opponent had held back.
He couldn't help but clasp his hands in a fist salute to the other party.
Gu Xi ignored him and charged straight at Ye Qiubai!
At this moment...
Mu Fusheng frowned slightly and said, "Impressive."
Clearly, the amount of information generated in just a few breaths is substantial.
Mu Fusheng realized the other party's intention.
" Lin Zhinan wasn't unaware of the need to control the tempo; in fact, he anticipated that Senior Brother, due to the overall weakness of Heavenly Sword Peak, would launch a fast-paced opening attack to seize the initiative."
"Therefore, Lin Zhinan decided to go all in, waiting for the opponent's quick attack, and arranged for a highly skilled individual capable of overwhelming one of the Heavenly Sword Peak members to make a full-force attack and eliminate one of them first."
"This not only interrupted the senior brother's intentions, but also completely severed Heavenly Sword Peak's control of the rhythm."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hei asked, "Is the eldest brother in danger?"
"At least that's how it seems for now."
Behind Mu Fusheng, Leng Yinqiu and her group, along with the three from Immortal Ape Village, sighed softly.
They eliminated one person first, disrupting the formation of Heavenly Sword Peak.
This strategy seems very simple.
It appears to be the result of suppressing the opponent through sheer force.
But that's not actually the case.
To do this, you must guess the other party's thought process.
In order to make corresponding plans.
At the beginning, Lin Zhinan instructed the three people from the Spirit Immortal Palace not to make any rash moves, which shows that he must have expected this!
Otherwise, if Lin Zhinan were to order his three men to take action directly...
That would be exactly what Ye Qiubai wanted.
It not only revealed their strength.
Furthermore, they will be under the cover of the Sword Domain.
The four from Heavenly Sword Peak seized control of the initiative!
The current situation.
This led the Immortal Ape Village and the Holy Talisman Sect to believe that Heavenly Sword Peak had already lost...
Beside Su Muyou, Su Lindu's expression turned slightly serious. "This Lin Zhinan truly lives up to his reputation as the strategist of the Spirit Aspect Palace."
Su Muyou nodded slightly. "There's no suspense anymore."
Jiang Chen, trapped in the Avici Purgatory, also cautioned, "If we encounter the Spirit Immortal Palace, they probably won't be able to extract our souls so easily."
Pan Xie didn't speak, his arms crossed, his fingers rhythmically tapping below his shoulders, lost in thought.
The Four Symbols Sect, however, wore solemn expressions.
None of these reclusive forces are simple individuals!
I'm afraid this time, it really will be as the sect leader said.
The landscape of the Mid-Latitude Realm will be drastically altered with the emergence of reclusive forces!
And that's what Mu Fusheng could think of.
Ye Qiubai was already aware of this.
He thought to himself.
This Lin Zhinan is no simple character.
The opening move not only disrupted Heavenly Sword Peak's rhythm but also resulted in one of their members being eliminated.
This is undoubtedly a huge blow!
Due to the difference in numbers.
The win rate of Heavenly Sword Peak will also be greatly reduced!
now.
Gu Xi had already rushed in front of Ye Qiubai.
Without a second thought, Lin Zhinan's next step was to have Gu Xi, who had already reached the Middle Turbid Immortal Realm, face Ye Qiubai alone.
At the same time, take advantage of the difference in numbers to eliminate Chu Lan and Chi Bing!
How can Ye Qiubai break this situation?
Everyone watched this scene unfold.
This is a dead end...
