Chapter 1033 Triangular Array
Xiang Nan said, "Since you have always been in Amethyst City, why didn't you personally come out to protect Su Ran?"
The little boy said, "First, I am a Xuandao cultivator, not a martial artist. Second, I have more important things to do."
"Alright, you'll meet me when you win the fifth level of the Heaven Scryer Puppet Prize."
With that, the child's body sank into the building like water.
Xiang Nan and Su Ran arrived at the arena the next morning.
Today was the semi-final of the Puppet Realm Tournament. The commentator announced the rules amidst the clamor of the audience.
The semi-final is a team competition, divided into two groups in the morning and afternoon.
Three hundred and fifty-six puppets participated in the competition, and 178 puppets participated in each team competition. In the end, the top 50 puppets of each group were selected to advance to the finals tomorrow.
Each group had three hours to compete. If the number of remaining puppets still exceeded 50 after three hours, the puppets with more severe damage would be selected and eliminated.
If the number of remaining puppets is less than 50, the least damaged puppets will be selected from the eliminators and promoted to fill the vacancy.
For the sake of fairness, the grouping pattern is a combination of strength and weakness, with the first strong and the first weak grouped into one group, the second strong and the second weak grouped into one group, and so on.
This was to prevent all the experts from meeting in the semi-finals.
However, it was not fair to the weak.
Xiang Nan's Su Ran squad was assigned to the afternoon team competition, so they could observe other people's battles in the morning.
In the arena, there was a staff member holding a horn and a drummer in each of the sixteen directions.
Within the huge field, all the arenas had sunk into the ground, replaced by a pocket-sized battlefield with a complicated terrain.
There were small mountains, jungles, and rivers in this battlefield. There were no desert ice fields or other environments.
The mountains and trees here were all made of composite metal. They were not easy to destroy and could be used as temporary barriers and shelters.
Following the order of the referee, 178 members of the first half team entered the arena.
The audience applauded loudly. They had been waiting for this day for a long time.
Every single squad had won applause when they walked out. These squads were famous in the Iron and Steel Continent, and they had achieved remarkable results over the years with many supporters.
Among them, the provincial squadron consisted of the Big Three, the Bluesea squadron, the Ark squadron, and the Hansha squadron.
As for the private squads, there were also three giants, the Xue Clan squad, the Qin Clan squad, and the Hua Clan squad.
The Xue Clan squad that Xue Bufan was in also stepped into the battlefield this morning.
Amidst the cheers, the horns of the sixteen directions blew and the war drums sounded.
Ten commentators went on stage at the same time, each on a high platform in ten different directions of the battlefield, so as to observe the progress of the game in all directions.
Rows of majestic battle puppets entered the arena and chose their own positions.
As soon as the horns and drums ended, the battle began!
The audience cheered loudly.
Xiang Nan and Su Ran arrived at the top of the spectator stands and watched the progress of the match.
"This time, it's not simple." Su Ran hugged her shoulders and said, "The Xue Clan squadron has encountered the squadrons from Bluesea Province and Fangzhou Province. I'm afraid it will be a fierce performance."
"Even though Xue Bufan is despicable, his team's strength cannot be underestimated."
"Their team is even more interesting." Xiang Nan pointed at the Xue Clan squad.
On the field, the members of the various squads had already gathered together, ready to attack or defend at any time.
There were actually as many as six remaining battle puppets in the Xue Clan squad! And their assemblies are very thoughtful.
There were six puppets, three shield hands and three hammer hands.
Each of the three shield hands held a heavy shield that was ten meters tall and five meters wide, while the left hand held a long hinge.
The three hammers each held a seven-meter-long heavy warhammer.
Warhammer has a special meaning in this kind of competition, because it is not afraid of deformation, nor is it afraid of shattering blades. Even if it is deformed, it can still be used to hammer enemies.
At the beginning of the battle, the six battle puppets of the Xue Clan's squad set off majestically!
They took the lead in landing in the mountains and snatched away the commanding heights, forcing the other squadrons to enter the jungle.
Afterwards, the Xue Clan squad marched towards the jungle.
Three shield hands stood in front of the giant shield, while three hammers hid behind the shield hands. The three shield hands held the shield with their right hands, and the hinges on their left hands kept buzzing. At the top of the hinges, there was a meteor hammer covered with curves and thorns.
"Not good! It's a member of the Xue Clan's squad! Get out of here!"
In the jungle, a three-man team was quietly sneaking through the dense vegetation. They pushed open the leaves and saw the Xue Clan squad at a glance!
The three-man squad immediately turned around and fled in fright.
Xue Bufan hugged his shoulders and stood high up in the spectator stands. He sneered and said, "Not a single one of them is left!"
Whoosh whoosh!
The three meteor hammer hinges were immediately thrown away. Two of the three puppets in the squad did not dodge in time and were immediately wrapped around their bodies by the hinges. Then, they were pulled back by the shield hand.
The three hammers were already prepared. They all raised their warhammers high up, waiting for the moment the enemy was pulled in, the three hammers fell at the same time!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The two puppets that were dragged in were immediately smashed flat on the spot!
"My God!" The audience was both shocked and excited. This kind of combination was simply too savage!
However, there was still one member of the three-man team who had not been hit by the hinge, and he had already sprinted wildly.
"You want to run?" The three shield hands slammed the heavy shield onto the ground fiercely.
The ground shook violently, and the three-ring Yuan Qi shockwave exploded against the ground, sending the escaping battle puppet flying.
At the same time, a hinge flew out accurately, wrapping the enemy combat puppet in mid-air, and then dragged it back abruptly.
The two hammers jumped out with their warhammers in their hands, intercepting the local puppets halfway. When the two hammers descended, the lone person would be blown up on the spot!
The air and the earth were trembling.
After that, Hammer Hand immediately hid behind Shield Hand.
"As expected of the Xue Clan, it's too formidable!" The audience cheered excitedly.
Seeing this scene, Su Ran's face was a little pale.
Xiang Nan was thoughtful.
Puppets were unable to use martial arts techniques, but they could release pure Yuan Qi, which was usually used to assist in striking movements.
Suddenly, twelve combat puppets ran out from the left and right of the jungle.
"Ambush?" A member of the Xue Clan squad laughed, "So those three puppets were bait."
"Xue Clan Guild, stop!" The twelve combat puppets had clearly been rehearsed countless times in advance. They attacked in an orderly manner, advancing and retreating together, striving to maximize their attack power.
The twelve puppets jumped high and fell towards the Xue Clan squad at the same time.
"Insignificant skill." A middle-aged man from the Xue Clan smiled coldly and shouted, "Triangular Defense Formation!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three Hammer Hands rushed towards the three Shield Hands, forming a shield for two people. The six of them crouched down at the same time and surrounded the three-sided ten-meter shield into a triangular defensive barrier!
Rumble rumble rumble rumble!
The attacks of the twelve sneak attackers rained down on the three heavy shields, but they were unable to shake them in the slightest.
"Triangular charge!" The middle-aged man shouted.
The three Hammer Hands lay on the ground at the same time, pressing their legs against the back of the Shield Hands. Immediately after, a sudden burst of fire erupted!
The three shield hands were like war chariots, and the top shield exploded in three directions, completely dispersing the twelve enemy's offensive formations!
