Reincarnation Of The Strongest Sword God Chapter 2717 - Gambit?

Chapter 2717 Gambit?

Five separate teams?

Frost Heavens Elders gasped involuntarily when they heard Shi Fengs suggestion. They were at a disadvantage in numbers, and even the slightest mistake could put paid to securing the sixth reserve seat. Meanwhile, although Seven Wonderss distribution was conservative, it would allow Frost Heaven to avoid significant problems.

However, Shi Feng was now suggesting that they split their numbers into five additional teamsteams that met the bare minimum requirement of 100 players. This surpassed aggressive action and bordered on madness.

Guild Leader Black Flame, isnt this a little too aggressive a maneuver? Muxin couldnt help but worry.

At this point, everyone already knew that Shi Feng possessed frightening strength. Even if he led the smallest-sized team, he should still be able to handle most of the problems he encountered.

However, the four other teams wouldnt have such an assurance. After all, no one else possessed the frightening combat power of Shi Feng. Among Zero Wings team, the second strongest person was Violet Cloud. And her control over Mana was far from comparable to Shi Fengs. This was something Muxin had verified through Violet Clouds duel with Tian Cheng

As for Zero Wings other members, their average combat standards didnt even reach the Void Realm. While they could still become useful combat power, they couldnt change the tide of battle by themselves. In fact, even Domain Realm experts couldnt do so. This was also why Seven Wonders had decided to have Frost Heavens Grand Elders and Elders lead 300-man teams at a minimum.

At this moment, Muxin wasnt the only person puzzled by Shi Fengs suggestion. Even Youlan and Yan Tianxing couldnt help staring at Shi Feng in confusion.

Zero Wing had indeed made great progress recently. The Guilds top combatants had even experienced continuous improvements. However, they had yet to reach the standard of peerless experts. Aside from Shi Feng, the only other person who could safely lead a team of 100 players in this situation was Violet Cloud.

If they split their forces across five teams of 100, a single mistake could lead to a team-wipe. After all, this competition wasnt some childrens game, nor was it a struggle for just a small part of Gods Domain.

It was a competition for the Twelve Great Guilds reserve seats!

None of the various superpowers would hold back this time. In fact, in this competition, even Void Realm experts would only be foot soldiers. Every participating team would most likely have several or even more than a dozen of such experts assigned to them.

And while Domain Realm experts could be considered high-end combatants, even they would have to flee if they went up against 100-man teams without sufficient support. In this competition, only peerless experts could possibly single-handedly turn the tide of a battle.

Not to mention, 100-man teams were only the bare minimum in this competition. If apex experts came across a 500-man team by themselves, even they would most likely suffer. And if they came across 1,000-man teams, only death awaited them. It is indeed a little aggressive. However, this is also our only chance to secure a seat. Shi Feng did not refute Muxins words. After all, what she said was true. Otherwise, Frost Heaven wont have a single chance at victory. Im sure you understand this, as well.

In the past, due to an inadequate foundation, Frost Heaven failed to secure a reserve seat during the first competition.

Meanwhile, the start of the island battle was incredibly important. If they couldnt spread their forces across as many islands as possible, they would basically have to write off the competition.

There were only six reserve seats up for grabs. Ignoring island sizes, they needed to occupy at least three islands worth of Resource Nodes to have a considerable chance of winning. However, fully occupying three islands was easier said than done.

When Shi Feng finished speaking, Frost Heavens upper echelon fell silent.

After some time had passed, Hong Xinyuan suddenly stepped forward and said, I also agree with Guild Leader Black Flames point of view. We are basically gambling on luck if we only have 21 teams. We might as well put up a fight, in that case.

However, if luck doesnt favor us and one of our 100-man teams gets isolated, the team wont be able to do much, either, Brilliant Blue said, shaking his head.

A total of 30 Guilds were participating in the competition[1]. On average, there would be at least two Guilds on every island. If one of their 100-man teams had bad luck and got isolated on an island, the team definitely wouldnt have a good outcome.

At Brilliant Blues words, Frost Heavens members fell silent once more.

After giving the matter some thought, Seven Wonders looked at Shi Feng and said, How about this? Ill agree to form five more 100-man teams. However, we will support these five teams with only ordinary Tier 3 experts. Im afraid we cannot afford to assign any peak experts to you.

Guild Leader? Hong Xinyuan couldnt help but frown at Seven Wonderss words.

Although Seven Wonders had agreed to form five additional teams, if no peak experts supported these teams, Zero Wings members would basically be walking a tightrope. It wouldnt even be far-fetched to say that Seven Wonders was treating these five teams as sacrificial pieces.

Of course, Hong Xinyuan could understand Seven Wonderss decision. These five teams were a last-ditch effort. They naturally couldnt invest too much combat power in these teams. However, in his opinion, since they were gambling anyway, they might as well add chips to the bet.

Old Hong, dont try to persuade me. Ive made my decision, Seven Wonders said firmly.

I understand. Hong Xinyuan had no choice but to hold his tongue at these words. As Frost Heavens Guild Leader, Seven Wonders was the Guilds authority. Since Seven Wonders had already decided, Hong Xinyuan would have no way of changing the decision.

Guild Leader, Zero Wings members arent familiar with Frost Heavens members. How about I join them? This way, Guild Leader Black Flame can command the teams better, Muxin suggested to Seven Wonders.

Okay. Youll be the liaison with Zero Wing. Seven Wonders nodded in agreement. Just like Muxin had said, Shi Feng knew nothing about Frost Heavens members. Without proper understanding, he wouldnt be able to make the best decisions. Meanwhile, as one of Frost Heavens Vice Guild Leaders, Muxins understanding of the Guilds members was excellent. She was indeed the best candidate for the liaison.

Big Sis, are you crazy? Kerui, who stood beside Muxin, stared at her incredulously. You dare participate in such a gambit?

Dying in this competition meant losing two levels. For players of their level, losing two levels was no laughing matter. After all, they were only one small step away from the crucial Level 120 threshold.

If they died in this competition, it would severely delay challenging their Tier 4 Promotion.

Dont worry, my dear little sister. I will follow Guild Leader Black Flames team. I believe there shouldnt be any problems in that case, Muxin said, chuckling.

Kerui was momentarily rendered speechless by Muxins words.

Afterward, Frost Heavens members split up into different teams according to Seven Wonderss arrangement. Simultaneously, 483 Frost Heaven members were assigned to Shi Feng. As for how Shi Feng would distribute these players, Seven Wonders stayed out of it.

Guild Leader Black Flame, everyone has arrived, Muxin stated after counting the Frost Heaven members on their side. She then asked curiously, How do you plan on distributing them?

Ive thought about it already. Chuckling, Shi Feng said, Ill lead a team by myself. Afterward, Gentle Snow, Aqua Rose, Violet Cloud, and Fire Dance will each lead a team. The rest of Zero Wings members will follow Violet Clouds and Fire Dances teams.

This... Isnt this... Muxin was momentarily dumbfounded.

She had anticipated Violet Cloud leading a team by herself, while the rest of Zero Wings members would be split across the three remaining teams. After all, Violet Cloud also possessed a Mana Domain of her own.

Yet, Shi Feng was having Gentle Snow and Aqua Rose lead teams by themselves, instead?

At this moment, let alone Muxin, even Youlan, Yan Tianxing, Yi Luofei, Alluring Summer, Zhao Yueru, Cola, Shadow Sword, Silent Blade, Turtledove, Ye Wumian, Flying Shadow, and Rampant Blade were stunned.

Of the Zero Wing members present, the ones who needed support the most were the two Vice Guild Leaders. After all, the two of them hadnt improved their levels and equipment in the slightest over the past few weeks. Although Gentle Snows and Aqua Roses weapons and equipment were still far superior to those of the various superpowers peak experts, the two of them were still slightly inferior to Violet Cloud and Fire Dance in combat standard.

Not giving them any support was akin to going all-in on a gamble.Ignoring everyones doubts, Shi Feng turned to the two people in question and asked, Snow, Aqua, are you fine with this arrangement?

No problem.

The two responded indifferently as if this matter had nothing to do with them.

Good. That settles it, then. Shi Feng did not make any additional explanations.

Following this, the various superpowers waited for another hour or so until a loud bell tolled in the War Gods Temple, the sound echoing throughout Flame Dragon City.

The competition for the Twelve Great Guilds reserve seats officially began!

Immediately, the participants thronging the War Gods Temples plaza turned into streaks of light and vanished one after another.
