Upon receiving Elder He's order, Gu Wuzheng immediately spoke, "First, target the enemy ahead, attack." Following his voice, the mechanical voice of the Heavenly Sphere echoed, "Target: the enemy ahead, prepare to attack, attack commence." With that, the Thousand Machine Star flew directly towards the enemy group. As it flew forward, countless tentacles extended from the Thousand Machine Star, all aimed at the enemy group. The next moment, countless energy projectiles were launched directly at the enemy.

Upon seeing so many energy projectiles, the enemies showed no panic. Instead, they immediately raised their large shields to block, retreating behind them. The group quickly huddled together, and in an instant, their shields formed a wall. The energy projectiles, upon hitting this wall, were completely blocked. Seeing this, Elder He and the others' expressions changed slightly. The energy projectiles released by Qianjixing were quite powerful, and the fact that they were blocked was truly unexpected. It seemed this enemy group was not as weak as they had imagined.

The next moment, countless fireballs were launched from Thousand Machine Star. At the same time, the energy bullets launched from Thousand Machine Star also began to concentrate their attack, all targeting a single point on the shield wall. It seemed that Thousand Machine Star wanted to break through the surface by focusing on a single point.

But at that moment, a series of greatswords suddenly emerged from behind the shield wall. The greatswords didn't have any complicated movements; they simply thrust straight in. But this thrust allowed the greatswords to pierce the energy bullets with remarkable precision. The energy bullets failed to hit the shields and were instead struck by the greatswords, causing them to explode immediately.

Upon seeing this, Elder He couldn't help but say, "The energy blasts on Thousand Machine Star are still a bit weak; they should be stronger." Everyone else nodded in agreement; the energy blasts on Thousand Machine Star were indeed less powerful.

At this moment, Gu Wuzheng also noticed this change, and he immediately asked, "First, is close combat possible?"

The name "First" was given to their Thousand Machine Star's main control celestial sphere by Gu Wuzheng. At this moment, the voice of "First" came over and said, "Yes, ranged attacks pose very little threat to the enemy's battle formation. Now, prepare for close combat."

With that sound, the next thing Qianjixing did was extend its tentacles forward, which then intertwined to form a large cone. Then, like a nail, Qianjixing charged directly into the enemy's battle formation.

The enemy also noticed the changes in Qianjixing. As soon as they saw Qianjixing attacking, the enemy reacted immediately. Their large shields all flew up and grew larger, eventually turning into huge iron plates that then crashed down on Qianjixing.

Yes, there were no tricks involved; they just came crashing down directly. Moreover, those large shields were lined up and smashed straight towards Thousand Machine Star. Soon, the first shield hit Thousand Machine Star, and with a loud boom, Thousand Machine Star trembled slightly. Then came the second, the third, and countless other shields, which smashed into Thousand Machine Star. Thousand Machine Star was actually brought to a complete stop by the impact, unable to advance any further. This situation surprised Gu Wuzheng greatly.

But at this moment, those large shields came crashing down again. When Gu Wuzheng saw this, his expression changed, and he immediately asked, "Is there no way to advance?" This was, of course, his first question.

The first voice rang out: "Adjust the plan." With that, the tentacles immediately separated, no longer entangled. Facing the oncoming shields, the tentacles met them head-on. Just as the shields struck, the tentacles recoiled, and the shields, as if struck by a spring, slowly stopped advancing, becoming entangled by the tentacles. Then, the tentacles retracted, pulling the shields directly into the Thousand Machine Star. And it wasn't just one shield facing this situation; all the shields were in the same predicament.

After the large shields struck the tentacles, the power in the shields seemed to dissipate, and the shields could no longer be used to strike. Instead, they were entangled by the tentacles, and once the shields were entangled, they would be taken away by the tentacles.

The enemy noticed this and immediately recalled their large shields. They didn't want all their shields to be taken away. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qianjixing charged directly into the enemy formation. The enemy, seeing Qianjixing's movement, rushed forward, seemingly intending to force it to stop. Qianjixing, still relatively small, was only about a hundred meters in diameter. Upon seeing the enemies charging, it instantly grew larger and began rolling forward instead of charging. With this movement, the charging enemies were crushed beneath it. They couldn't withstand Qianjixing's onslaught, despite their various attempts to stop its advance.

Upon seeing this, the wooden horse in the enemy ranks moved. It reared up and neighed loudly. With the sound of the wooden horse, all the longswords in the hands of the enemies flew out of their hands. The next moment, these longswords combined in the air and became an enormous greatsword, which pierced straight towards Qianji Star.

Upon seeing that the enemy had produced such a longsword, Qianjixing immediately changed. His tentacles intertwined once more, turning him into a giant nail, which then collided directly with the longsword.

With a deafening roar, the giant sword transformed into countless longswords that shattered upon impact. At the same time, Thousand Machine Star's advance was forced to a halt, as the longswords brought it to a complete stop.

Although Qianjixing stopped, it immediately started moving again. The tentacles spread out once more, and Qianjixing rolled forward again. As it rolled, the tentacles were swung around like giant steel whips, lashing out at the enemy. With this action, casualties immediately appeared in the enemy's battle formation. Anyone hit by the tentacles was turned into a pile of minced meat. The force of the tentacles when they were swung was simply too great.

Moreover, Qianjixing charged straight towards the wooden horse. Upon seeing this, the wooden horse let out a long neigh, and the next moment, a flash of blue light appeared on its body, after which the wooden horse disappeared. Along with the wooden horse, those people also disappeared; they had actually run away. Upon seeing this, Gu Wuzheng couldn't help but reveal a smile. These people from the Divine Realm seemed to be very powerful, but in reality, their combat strength seemed to be only average, not very strong at all.

They didn't give chase, because it wasn't the right time for them to attack the Divine Realm yet, so they couldn't pursue them. They could only retreat back to the Ten Thousand Serpent Wall. At this moment, Elder He's projection appeared in their command hall. Gu Wuzheng and the others immediately bowed to Elder He. Elder He smiled and said, "Very good, well done. It seems your training is indeed over. You should all rest well." Gu Wuzheng and the others all responded, and then Elder He ended the call.

After Elder He hung up, Gu Wuzheng immediately activated the internal communication system and then said to everyone in the team: "We won this battle, and this battle was entirely commanded by the First. It seems that the First's command ability is indeed very strong. We can confidently entrust the command of battles to the First in the future. I am just responsible for giving some suggestions from the side."

Everyone nodded, and Gu Wuzheng continued, "As we can see from today's battle, the people from the Divine Realm aren't as strong as we imagined. However, these people are probably the weakest in the Divine Realm. We all know that the Divine Realm is using this place as a training ground, so of course they're sending weaker people here to practice. Real experts rarely appear here, so we can't underestimate the people from the Divine Realm. We must be careful when facing them in the future and not let our guard down." Everyone responded in unison. Of course, they didn't dare to underestimate the people from the Divine Realm. The fact that their sect hadn't attacked the Divine Realm yet already showed how powerful the Divine Realm was. Moreover, they had fought against powerful people from the Divine Realm before, and they knew how strong they were. Therefore, they really didn't dare to look down on the people from the Divine Realm.

Gu Wuzheng continued, "Our training cannot stop now, especially the training of the human combat team. Although Qianji Star is good, you should have noticed in today's battle that its energy weapons are not very powerful. This is a big problem. If the energy weapons are not powerful, they cannot kill the enemy. That is to say, in long-range attacks, Qianji Star is not much of a threat to the enemy. And in close combat, there are too many variables. It is very likely that Qianji Star will be destroyed. If it really comes to that, then we can only rely on ourselves. So everyone must not give up training in battle formations. We must ensure that our battle formations can operate freely regardless of whether we use divine light or ride aliens. Does everyone have any objections?"

Everyone shook their heads. They knew very well that battle formations were sometimes a matter of life and death. They were the foundation for their courage to fight the enemy. Only by mastering battle formations could they truly engage the enemy and save their own lives.

Gu Wuzheng looked at everyone's expressions and then said, "Alright, it's settled then. From now on, we will continue to enter the Real Illusionary Realm every day for battle formation training. At the same time, we absolutely cannot neglect our own cultivation. Alright, that's all for now. Everyone, go and rest for a bit, and then enter the Real Illusionary Realm for training."
