Chapter 356: Chapter 69: A Duel? Sorry! Now You’re Facing... Guaranteed Victory in Duels!!

Qin Feng remained unmoved by the crowd’s baseless speculation and wild assumptions.

After all, long before he decided to reveal his true strength, Qin Feng had already drawn a clear line. He knew exactly what information could be disclosed and what secrets had to remain buried.

Besides, the God of War, a Destiny Deity, had most likely already detected the anomalies surrounding Qin Feng.

If even that supreme being had said nothing, what right did these Lord Players, mere "Lower-Rank Believers," have to wag their tongues?

’Don’t ask.

If they ask, the answer is Divine Power.

Anyway, I’m no Evil God Believer, nor am I an Abyssal Believer. I’ve got the King of War watching my back, so no one can question my allegiance.’

In an instant, thanks to their overwhelmingly superior combat power, the Holy Empire’s army seized control of the battlefield. They crushed the surging tide of Void Creatures, slaughtering them as effortlessly as snapping dry twigs.

However, the Void Creatures were like an endless swarm, pouring ceaselessly from the dense, black mist.

Even though the Holy Empire’s Warriors could kill the monsters in a single blow, and any injuries they sustained would slowly heal thanks to special abilities like the Evil Aura, their stamina was still gradually giving out under the prolonged, high-intensity battle. Fatigue began to spread through the ranks.

"This is bad!"

"I knew this would happen!"

"The trickiest part of the Void Realm isn’t the individual strength of the Void Creatures, but their terrifying, seemingly endless numbers!"

"Even though we’ve broken through to Extraordinary Two Stars, our stamina can’t hold out against an endless enemy like this! There’s no way we can fight through to the very end in one go!"

"I knew it!"

"We never should have launched a counter-attack in the Void Realm!"

"We should have just stayed put on the Lord Plane and slowly surrounded and destroyed the Void Creatures that invaded our territory!"

Seeing some Lord Players questioning his decision, Qin Feng offered no rebuttal or explanation. With a wave of his hand, he simply ordered the Holy Empire’s second legion to enter the fray and gradually relieve the first legion, which had been fighting bitterly on the front lines for some time.

In fact, he had long anticipated the problem of stamina depletion.

That was why, before the battle even began, Qin Feng had divided his legions into several forces and established an extremely strict combat rotation schedule.

Whenever a Holy Empire unit’s stamina dropped too low, they could immediately follow his pre-arranged withdrawal plan, fall back to the safety of the rear, and slowly regain their strength through extended rest.

As for the Lord Players, they didn’t command such a massive Divine Chosen Army and were completely incapable of continuous, 24-hour combat.

That’s why Qin Feng never expected them to fight for the entire duration. He just needed them to follow a simple pattern: fall back to the rear to rest when tired, then return to the battlefield to farm for points once they recovered.

After all, no matter how the battle unfolded, the Divine Chosen Soldiers of the Holy Empire would be the ones holding the front line, shouldering all the pressure for them.

Soon, the Lord Players who had noticed the Holy Empire’s army constantly rotating its forces understood Qin Feng’s true intentions in a flash.

"Holy shit!"

"This strategy is insane!"

"He’s actually using a shift rotation system?"

"Is Lord Tingfeng planning to have us explore the Void Realm non-stop, 24 hours a day?"

"Just how many Extraordinary Soldiers does he have?"

"How can he afford to burn through them like that?"

The mad madam, who had already discussed the specific tactics with Qin Feng, stepped forward to explain.

"That’s right."

"Exactly."

"The strength of the second-stage Divine Chosen Army that Lord Tingfeng now commands far surpasses that of anyone else I know."

"Combined with the buffs from his powerful abilities like Heaven’s Chosen Ruler and War Blessing, conducting a 24-hour, non-stop, high-intensity offensive is no problem at all."

"So." 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"In this counter-attack."

"We just need to follow behind his Divine Chosen Team and slowly farm for points."

"The real pressure... he’ll bear it for us."

Upon hearing this, the crowd reverted to form. They all shouted about how amazing it was, then promptly declared they were too exhausted to continue fighting and had to fall back.

"Amazing!"

"Then we’ll be counting on you, Lord Tingfeng!"

"My Divine Chosen Army is spent! I have to take them to the rear to rest!"

"Me too, me too!"

"I’ll go with you guys!"

"And me!"

"Me too!"

"..."

In a matter of moments, nearly ninety percent of the Lord Players had withdrawn, leaving only top-tier elites like the mad madam.

Not only did they command larger numbers of Divine Chosen Soldiers, but they also possessed special abilities like Physical Recovery and Energy Retrospect. That was the only reason they could barely keep up with Qin Feng’s high-intensity combat rhythm and remain on the front lines to provide support.

Qin Feng paid little attention to whether the players stayed or left. From the very beginning, his focus had been locked on the Void Apostle.

If the Void Apostle codenamed "one" showed the slightest sign of advancing to attack, Qin Feng would instantly order the Vampire Nesiya unit, hidden behind his legion, to move out. They would activate their Teleportation Magic to rapidly assemble all ranged units from across the Holy Empire’s territory, gathering them in the Void Realm.

Of course, these deployments were by no means a spur-of-the-moment decision.

The Teleportation Magic Tower—the core prerequisite for the Vampire Nesiya to use Teleportation Magic—was already in place.

Furthermore, he had already sent orders in advance for all ranged units on the Lord Plane to assemble and stand by.

Qin Feng had already arranged everything perfectly, achieving his desired objectives.
