Jiang Wuyuan had a fairly good impression of Zhuge Wangran.

This statement alone proves that he is a person with a sense of the big picture and a sense of right and wrong.

No one present raised any objections.

After all, the live stream is right here, and whether they are indifferent or genuinely believe that they should fight to the death to defend Fengrao City, they will absolutely not show their bad side at this time.

"Since everyone agrees, and we don't have much time, let's start dividing the tasks." Zhuge Wangran was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. "Based on the current situation of Fengrao City, there are four city walls in total, located in the east, west, south, and north."

The northern and western city walls were the most severely damaged, and they were guarded by people from my Huaxia Academy and Zhantian Academy.

The southern city wall suffered the least damage, so it was guarded by people from the Jiangnan Academy.

The eastern city wall is mostly damaged, but Xijing Academy has the fewest remaining students, so the four students from other universities will join Xijing Academy in guarding the eastern city wall.

Finally, one person from each of the four teams was selected to remain in the city center, in case of unforeseen circumstances.

No one objected to this arrangement.

Jiang Wuyuan guarded the west city wall along with Liu Can and others. As for the people in the team who were separated and left in the city, he did not know them before and did not care too much about them.

"When the barrier breaks and the lava flows back, I will seal the surroundings with talismans."

"However, my strength is insufficient, and the protective range of the talisman is not very large, nor can it withstand much damage." Zhuge Wangran said seriously, "Therefore, please do not let the fire crocodiles get too close, lest they exhaust the power of the talisman, which would be difficult to replenish later."

Everyone nodded.

With the general arrangements in place, the group split into five teams and set off in different directions.

——

"A very meticulous arrangement. Zhuge Wangran is indeed an excellent commander." Baozi praised loudly, "I hope their tactics can help us get through this difficult time."

“Yes,” Little Tang replied, “We must defend Fengrao City!”

We must defend Fengrao City!

We must defend Fengrao City!

Fengrao City must never be destroyed a second time.

[That's right, this is the place the soldiers fought tooth and nail to defend. We look forward to seeing how they perform.]

Fengrao City is merely an inanimate object, but if people imbue it with meaning, then it becomes priceless. We must defend Fengrao City!

[But those people up there really dared to do that, actually moving the entire Phoenix City into the secret realm.]

[It's clear that the higher authorities are placing great importance on this national competition; even the competition events are completely different from before.]

[A very novel and exciting competition.]

——

Jiang Wuyuan followed Ruan Kongyin at a leisurely pace.

He doesn't hide himself, but he also doesn't actively reveal his hand.

"Xiao Yuan, what do you think of this competition?" Ruan Kongyin suddenly asked.

Jiang Wuyuan smiled and replied softly, "You didn't disappoint me."

It was quite interesting, and enough to stir up the passion in his heart.

Fengrao City.

Jiang Wuyuan silently repeated the name in his heart once again.

He understood the meaning of war and was always moved by all the true feelings in the world.

.........

The students from Zhantian Academy arrived at the west city wall.

The damage here is so severe that it's almost impossible to tell that it's a complete wall.

Scattered stones, broken walls, shattered swords and spears, and dried, congealed, black blood.

Jiang Wuyuan calmly surveyed the surroundings.

"It's a pity we don't have any earth or rock elementalists in our team," Liu Can said, scratching his head. "Otherwise, we could have repaired this city wall."

"Isn't this considered a cultural relic? Does our unauthorized repair count as damaging a cultural relic?" Huangfu Ren asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, Ye Wenxian gave him a speechless look.

Ruan Kongyin smiled and said, "It's alright. We'll be standing outside the city, so whether there are city walls or not doesn't matter."

After all, their purpose was to protect Fengrao City from further damage, not to use the city walls of Fengrao City to protect themselves again.

Jiang Wuyuan didn't keep anything to himself at this moment; he took out an array plate and placed it on the damaged city wall.

"Hey, Junior Jiang, you can't use items that aren't part of your abilities during the competition," Liu Can reminded him softly.

"I made this." Jiang Wuyuan placed the array plate, and sensing that the time was almost up, he raised his hand to activate the array patterns within.

At the same time, Zhuge Wangran also made a move.

Buzz—

The earth suddenly trembled slightly.

As the rubble on the ground trembled and rolled, a talisman emitting blue light flew rapidly from the north.

Intricate runes were drawn on the talisman paper.

Its energy was abundant, and the place it flew over emitted a spatial hum.

Suddenly, it stopped in mid-air, connecting with the light of the other three talismans to form a huge blue barrier.

"Zhuge's runes have improved quite a bit again," Ye Wenxian commented, looking at the talisman floating in mid-air.

"Wenxian, you seem to be quite familiar with Zhuge?" Liu Can asked curiously.

Ip Man-sin shook his head: "Not familiar with him."

We just happened to meet during our training.

Although Zhuge's family and her family had a significant connection, the two had never actually met before.

Liu Can shrugged. He was a little disappointed not to hear any gossip.

"It's coming." Jiang Wuyuan coldly interrupted their wandering thoughts.

The next second, as if in response to Jiang Wuyuan's words, the barrier that had been protecting Fengrao City shattered with a deafening roar.

As the shimmering light dissipated, crimson magma surged in instantly.

Within the surging lava, one can see countless fire crocodiles swimming and darting about.

"Everyone, let's charge together! Defend Fengrao City to the death!" Liu Can shouted and charged out first.

"Defend Fengrao City to the death!!" The crowd followed closely behind.

Jiang Wuyuan stepped onto the rainbow and passed through the rune barrier created by Zhuge Wangran, then plunged into the lava again without hesitation.

The heat swept over him, and Jiang Wuyuan immediately urged his qi and blood to overflow.

As for the fiery crocodiles rushing towards him, Jiang Wuyuan's reaction was—

A sword strike was unleashed!

The ultimate swordsmanship!

boom--

The magma surged, and the fire crocodile was instantly shattered by the sword intent, its corpse vanishing into the scalding flames.

Jiang Wuyuan was not intimidated by the group attack at all.

One after another, longswords that had not been used for a long time flew out from the miniature sword box at Jiang Wuyuan's waist and gathered behind the boy.

In the firelight, the boy's eyes were strikingly deep.

He raised his hand and waved it, and the thousands of longswords behind him moved at his command.

Sword Shadow!

Sword Control Technique!
