After a heated debate, the meeting room gradually quieted down, and everyone's attention was focused on the top leader who sat in the main seat and remained silent.

He took a deep breath and slowly said, "We did underestimate the influence of Battle Paradise, but that doesn't mean we have no room to fight back."

What we need to do is not to blindly imitate, but to innovate and change while retaining our own characteristics.

We aim to create a unique appeal for the Death Arena, while simultaneously exploring differentiated competition with Battle Paradise.

Remember, history has proven that only by adapting to change can one stand firm amidst the tides of time.

These words were like a shot in the arm, reigniting the fighting spirit of everyone present.

......

The top leader stood up, walked to the window, and looked down at the once bustling arena square, which was now somewhat deserted.

His eyes flashed with a complex light, reflecting both his dissatisfaction with the status quo and his plans for the future.

He knew in his heart that reversing the current disadvantage would be no easy task, but as the leader of the Death Arena, he never had the thought of giving up.

He returned to his desk, lightly touched the surface, and a virtual screen slowly rose up, displaying a series of plans and strategies.

He began to scrutinize each strategy meticulously, considering how to effectively innovate and upgrade it without sacrificing the core value of the Death Arena.

First, he decided to introduce cutting-edge safety technology and establish a "safe mode" event to attract audiences who seek thrills but are concerned about safety.

At the same time, the original high-risk, high-reward traditional events will be retained to satisfy hardcore fans who seek the ultimate challenge.

Secondly, he plans to launch the "Legendary Heroes Challenge," inviting historically renowned warriors to participate in the competition in virtual form.

This gives viewers the opportunity to fight alongside or compete against legends, thereby enhancing the viewing experience and interactivity.

Furthermore, he devised a cross-sectoral cooperation plan to establish cooperative relationships with major forces in the core sea area.

Transform the Death Arena into a stage showcasing the cultures and strengths of various ethnic groups, thereby enhancing its cultural value and social influence.

Finally, considering the competition with Battle Park, a bold plan took shape in his mind—to cooperate with Battle Park rather than confront it.

By sharing resources and even deeply integrating in certain areas, we can jointly create a brand-new competitive ecosystem that encompasses both physical and virtual elements and is compatible with each other.

After finalizing the plans, a glint of light flashed in the eyes of the top leader, and he dialed his assistant's communicator.

He ordered in a deep voice, "Notify the technology department to immediately begin the development of a security protection system, and contact the public relations department; we need to launch a brand new publicity campaign."

In addition, I plan to draft a letter of intent for cooperation and personally visit the Heart of the Divine Island to speak with the management team of Battle Paradise.

After putting down the communicator, his eyes flickered. To be honest, if the Survival Game Awareness hadn't been keeping an eye on things, he would have really wanted to report it to the Survival Game Awareness.

That would be much simpler, what a pity.

......

When the highest-ranking official of the Death Arena set foot in the Heart City of God's Island II, he was attracted by the unique scenery and the rich atmosphere of harmony. However, he did not have time to appreciate it for long, because his purpose was clear—to have a face-to-face exchange with the management of the Battle Paradise.

However, when he stepped into the designated meeting place—a conference center that blended modern technology with natural beauty—he was surprised.

To his surprise, besides Chen Ping, Linafeier, and other key members of the Battle Paradise, there were two other unexpected figures present—Black General, the head of the black market, and Handsome Guy, the city lord of Paradise City.

Black Commander was dressed in a black outfit, with a black cloak that still flowed gracefully. He wore his signature mysterious smile, appearing both low-key and dignified.

Meanwhile, the dashing guy was dressed casually and had a calm and unhurried attitude, as if he could maintain his leisurely and carefree attitude no matter when or where.

The presence of the two added an unusual dimension to the meeting.

The top official was slightly taken aback, but quickly composed himself and politely nodded to everyone present, secretly wondering if the appearance of these two meant that the topics of cooperation had exceeded his initial expectations.

Seeing this, Chen Ping, who was chatting with Black General and Handsome Guy, smiled and stood up, breaking the brief silence: "Welcome to Heart of the Divine Island. I guess you probably didn't expect such a lineup, did you? In fact..."

Since the inception of Battlegrounds, we have been exploring how to build a broader network of collaborations, rather than being limited to a single area.

Linaphile smiled and nodded to the other party, showing that he attached great importance to this meeting: "Yes, Supreme Leader, we believe that in the face of an increasingly complex and ever-changing world, going it alone is no longer a wise choice."

The arrival of Hei Dashuai and Xiaosage demonstrates our desire to build a cross-sectoral cooperation framework to jointly promote the prosperity and development of the core sea area and even the broader region.

Black General slowly opened his mouth, his voice deep and powerful: "The Arena of Death, haha, as a long-established arena, it has a profound heritage and a wide influence."

Our black market possesses unique advantages in resources and information; a partnership would undoubtedly bring unprecedented opportunities to all parties.

The dashing guy added casually, "Although Paradise City is known for its entertainment and leisure, it is also eager to participate in such cooperation. Through resource sharing, we can create more diversified entertainment experiences to meet the needs of different groups of people."

Faced with this sudden situation, the top leader was surprised, but more than anything, he was looking forward to the future.

He realized that this was not just a simple cooperation negotiation, but a convergence point that would have a profound impact on the future landscape of the core sea area.

"It seems I did underestimate the significance of this meeting," the top official said with a smile, his tone revealing a sense of relief and anticipation.

"In that case, let's explore together how to maximize our respective strengths and create an unprecedented super platform that transcends competition, entertainment, resources, and information, so that the entire core sea area, and even further afield, can feel our influence."

As the discussion deepened, the meeting room was filled with sparks of innovation and cooperation, and the outline of an unprecedented alliance gradually became clear through the joint efforts of all parties.

Soon, the group formed an alliance!
