When Huyan Li pressed forward a second time, Dong Jian did not try to send all his force to the side.

He lowered his shoulder, locked his waist and hips, and only allowed the frontal contact to deflect slightly, leaving himself room to retreat.

The next moment, the sole of his shoe grazed the table again. One step. Dong Jian retreated.

At almost the same time, the Shi Mo and Shi Mo were also pushed backward by the Elephant Armor team members on both sides.

The three support points moved backward together, Imperial Fighting Team front line retreated by more than a foot.

"Don't disperse."

Yu Tianheng's voice came from the left front.

The Shi Mo did not turn around; the Black Tortoise pressed against the shoulder and arm opposite it, its legs already sinking into a half-squatting position.

"It hasn't dispersed."

The Shi Mo side is even more direct.

"I just can't hold on."

After he finished speaking, he was pushed back half a step. In the rest area, Yu Feng had already sat up straight.

In previous Imperial Fighting Team, they encountered strong attacks and teams with tough defenses, but there were not many instances where the Shi Brothers were simultaneously pushed back.

Elephant Armor, however, can do it. And they don't use any fancy tricks; they just move forward.

Seven Diamond Mammoth Soul Master stood shoulder to shoulder, with the front line taking the hits while the others followed at a distance. If anyone was stopped, the person next to them would immediately fill in half a body length, leaving almost no gaps in the horizontal line.

This playing style is very rough. But rough doesn't mean simple.

In Dong Jianyue's territory, the seven people were pressing down very clearly with each step. He could even tell which person's left leg was heavier and which person would take the next step earlier, but these details had not yet turned into opportunities.

Because the difference is so small, the front-line advances remain connected.

Shi Mo.

Dong Jian called out.

"Come."

The Shi Mo's foot sank. Dong Jian stepped away from Huyan Li's front, moving to the right rear of the Shi Mo. The next member of the Elephant Armor team was pressing down on the tortoise shell as they moved forward.

Dong Jian didn't catch his shoulder, but instead pressed his palm against the side and back of the Shi Mo armor. The Black Stance sank.

The force coming from the opposite side first landed on the Shi Mo, and then traveled from the tortoise shell to Dong Jian's palm.

This time, not directly Elephant Armor gave Dong Jian more room to adjust.

He pulled his waist back and spread his right foot to the side, trying to divert the frontal thrust of the Shi Mo to the side.

Effective. The Shi Mo mill, which had been leaning backward, briefly stabilized.

But as soon as Dong Jian turned aside, the second player from the Elephant Armor had already closed in on the front row.

Bang! The new weight was added. The Shi Mo tortoise shell shuddered violently.

Dong Jian's palms went numb.

The initial momentum that had just been separated was then replenished by the subsequent continuous thrust.

"Give me my money back!"

Shi Mo murmured. The two slid backward together. Dong Jian let go, no longer trying to withstand the attack.

The result is the same as before. One force can turn things around. Two forces might even be able to be separated.

However Elephant Armor's advance has no clear end point. As long as the seven people maintain the same rhythm, as soon as a gap appears in front, the weight will fill in from behind.

Seeing this, Huyan Li simply changed his fighting style. He stopped raising his arm to make any obvious attacks and lowered his center of gravity.

As Dong Jian moved forward and returned to the center line, Huyan Li directly rammed him with his chest and shoulder. Bang.

There was no punching speed, nor any sudden burst of power. The Dong Jian met him, he knew that this would actually make him more difficult to deal with.

If it's a punch, it will eventually come to an end. If it's a charge, if the momentum goes astray, the center of gravity will also shift.

Huyan Li is now only doing one thing: getting his feet on the ground and catching up with his weight.

Then take another step. Each step maintains contact. Dong Jian shifts his shoulder to the right, and he follows suit, pressing down to the right.

Dong Jian stepped back, while he continued forward.

Circular Rotation can only reduce some of the pressure at the contact edge; it cannot create a lateral space out of thin air.

He's blocking your way.

Li Man saw it very clearly.

"Um."

Dong Jian took another half step back. "He doesn't need to beat me once, he just needs to keep close."

Li Man didn't say anything more. Her attention had already fallen on the two sides of the Elephant Armor.

The four jade array points began to extend forward. The first version of the staggered peaks was very simple.

Since all seven people are moving at the same speed, two asymmetrical routes are set up on the outer side, causing the Elephant Armor's wings to deflect slightly. The middle section continues to be carried by Dong Jian, Shi Mo, and Shi Mo. As long as the sides travel a little further, the arrival time of the entire group will naturally differ.

A Green Jade Dragon Bamboo rose from the right side of the arena. It didn't attack; it simply positioned itself diagonally to the right of Huyan Li, blocking the most advantageous spot for his teammate's next move.

On the other side, there is also a bamboo joint breaking the ground. The location and distance are different.

If it were a typical Power Attack System, to maintain the most comfortable footwork, they would most likely circle around. The Elephant Armor didn't have it. The Soul Grandmaster on the right didn't even glance at it.

The Diamond Mammoth's massive foot landed directly.

Click!

The bamboo joints were trampled and bent to the side. Before the jade patterns could fully unfold, a second foot pressed down.

The lattice fragments shattered. The other side did it even faster.

The Elephant Armor team member used his shin to knock aside the bamboo branches and ran over them along the original route, slowing down by only a very brief moment.

Li Man's fingers tightened. She didn't try to save those two nodes.

"Remove it."

The remaining Green Jade Bamboo was immediately recycled. Yu Feng, watching from the sidelines, frowned.

"This is absolutely unreasonable."

Qin Ming remained silent. The Elephant Armor was precisely this kind of team.

If Li Man wanted to force them to take a detour by relying on the array's core itself, it would be tantamount to making his control structure Diamond Mammoth.

The wrong question was chosen. On the field, the first version of staggered attack didn't materialize. The entire Elephant Armor Team moved forward two steps.

Imperial Fighting Team continued to retreat. The sideline on the other side of the arena was getting closer and closer. Dugu Yan raised her hand.

A turquoise poisonous fog spread out from the right side, close to the ground.

Instead of covering the crowd directly as in the past, it only forms a very narrow strip of land.

The man on the outermost right flank of the Elephant Armor paused. He could step on the bamboo formation, but that didn't mean he was willing to step directly into the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison.

But he didn't take a roundabout route. He only moved in half a foot. His teammates next to him moved in as well.

The entire line remains intact.

There has been a change.

Dong Jian saw it in Mountain Domain. Li Man saw it too. But that wasn't enough.

A half-foot position only changes the lateral position, not the arrival time. The Elephant Armor still arrive together.

"Press again!"

Hu Yanli gave a low Huyan Li. The seven men stepped forward simultaneously. This time, Yu Tianheng did not wait.

The Fourth Soul Ring lit up: Thunder Dragon Body.

Lei Guang cut straight through the gap between the Shi Mo and Dong Jian, extending from his right arm down to his shoulder, chest, and legs.

Hu Yanli was Huyan Li forward. Yu Tianheng didn't strike his chest directly. The first punch landed on his left shoulder.

Boom!

Lightning exploded. Huyan Li's body shifted slightly. His second punch followed immediately, striking the same spot.

This time he finally stopped. Yu Tianheng confiscated it.

With his right leg stepping forward, the third Thunderclap impact pressed directly into the defensive position that had already been shaken red by the two punches.

Bang!

Huyan Li was forced back half a step. A chorus of voices immediately rose from the stands. This was the first time Huyan Li had truly retreated since the entire Elephant Armor began their advance.

Yu Tianheng himself was also jolted back, his right arm going numb. But he didn't show any sign of it, only staring at Huyan Li.

"Refund is possible."

Dong Jian heard it.

"Um."

This is important. Elephant Armor is tough enough, but not so tough that it's completely impossible to hit.

The problem remained with the entire row. Huyan Li took a half step back, and the two teammates on his left and right immediately filled the gap. If Yu Tianheng continued to chase, he would directly crash into the three people's carrying capacity.

So he stopped and retreated. The lightning marks on Huyan Li's shoulder were still emitting wisps of smoke, but he regained his footing.

"You're better at fighting than the previous one."

Yu Tianheng looked at him.

"Too much nonsense."

Huyan Li. The next moment, the Diamond Mammoth Soul Power pressed down again, and the entire horizontal line continued to advance.

That half-step was quickly gone. Imperial Fighting Team retreated again. Shi Mo's breathing began to become heavy.

Two clear tracks had already been left by Shi Mo's feet. Dong Jian's back and waist were also accumulating soreness and numbness.

Ye Lingling's Nine Heart Begonia lit up, and the healing spell fell on the three of them. It could repair minor damage caused by the collision, but it could not bear their weight for the next time.

The sideline was less than four steps away. Li Man surveyed the field again. The bamboo formation's attempt to block had failed.

The narrow band only allows the outer side of the foot to be slightly tucked in.

Yu Tianheng could Huyan Li, but if he pursued, the entire line would fill the gap.

If this continues, the Imperial Fighting Team will eventually be completely pushed out of the arena.

"Li Man."

Yu Tianheng didn't urge her, he just called her name.

"Know."

She crouched down and pressed her palm against the ground. Three new jade arrays lit up. This time, their positions were strange.

They were all behind Imperial Fighting Team, even close to the area they had just retreated from. Dong Jian glanced at them and suddenly understood.

They had been trying to figure out how to get the Elephant Armor Elephant Armor go around them, but it wouldn't budge. So they changed their approach.

Imperial Fighting Team allowed Elephant Armor to walk in a straight line. However, Imperial Fighting Team had to arrange the positions for the seven people who entered.

Huyan Li pressed closer. Shi Mo instinctively prepared to push back. Li Man suddenly spoke.

"Don't block it."

The Shi Brothers were both taken aback.

"What?"

"First row, come in."

The three array points under her command lit up simultaneously, and the originally side-by-side carrier positions were shifted backward.

The left side is closer. The middle is half a step further away. The right side is the deepest.

Dong Jian already understood.

He didn't continue to Huyan Li with Huyan Li, but instead stepped back, voluntarily giving up the first step in the middle.

Huyan Li forward due to inertia. At the same moment, the Shi Mo and Shi Mo also retreated in different directions.

The first rank of the Elephant Armor, which had been consistently engaged with the well-organized front line of the Imperial Fighting Team, lost its target for the first time.

The person on the left is there first. The person in the middle is a little short. The person on the right needs to take another step forward.

Li Man watched them land.

"Come in."

Huyan Li stomped heavily into the area that Imperial Fighting Team had voluntarily vacated.
