Shen Xi remained leaning against the broken stone pillar.

Mingying stood behind him, motionless.

The atmosphere around us was somewhat subtle.

Lord Wu'an led his troops to occupy an open area on the east side of the ruins.

Hundreds of soldiers dispersed, advancing in a fan shape, and began clearing away the nearby rotting corpses. Their movements were clean, efficient, and perfectly coordinated. Lord Wu'an stood in the center of the column, his massive battle sword resting on his shoulder, occasionally slicing through the rotting corpses.

Gu Yunting and his family occupied the west side. After observing for a moment, he retreated, choosing to avoid confrontation rather than attacking Shen Xi.

The Gu family's people were quite efficient. The seventy or eighty people were divided into several small teams. Some were responsible for attracting the rotting corpses, some were responsible for output, and some were responsible for logistics and supply. They cooperated quite well.

Naro and his family were the quietest. They left silently, scattering into the depths of the ruins. Occasionally, brief sounds of fighting could be heard, quickly followed by silence. Naro himself also quietly disappeared into the darkness.

The Jin and He families suffered the most.

The two families were leaderless. The remaining people looked at each other in bewilderment. Finally, two older family members stepped forward and led the rest of the group to the edge of the ruins to begin clearing away the scattered corpses.

As for casual players, they are now more focused on participating than on playing.

Those powerful families, military personnel, and those two monsters have firmly secured their spots in the top ten.

No matter how hard they try, they're just there to make up the numbers.

[Regional Channel - Kyoto Ruins Arena]

"It's over, it's completely hopeless. The top ten are all from the military and the four major families, plus those two freaks..."

"Stop talking, I'm already giving up. Whatever, I'm not going to make the top 500 anyway."

"Tell me, who exactly is this Tai Chu? That big guy under him is too powerful! He even killed Helian Tieshu!"

"What do you mean 'big guy'? His name is Mingying. Didn't you check the rankings?"

"With these two around, from this day forward, the landscape of Kyoto will change."

"Let it change, it has nothing to do with us freelancers anyway. Whoever is in charge, we all have to survive."

"Too……"

Shen Xi didn't read those comments.

His mind raced as he quickly calculated his next plan.

The first stage will end in less than an hour. According to the rules, the top 500 players will advance. He and Mingying are currently in the top ten, so they're guaranteed to advance.

Next, he led Mingying to search for traces of rotting corpses in the ruins. He stopped dealing with the people from the four major families because there wasn't enough time.

The sounds of battle in the ruins gradually subsided. After clearing the rotting corpses in the eastern district, the military began advancing towards the western district. The Gu family was not to be outdone and sped up their clearing efforts. The Na family remained elusive, but occasionally Na Luo's name could be seen flashing on the leaderboard.

The Jin family had completely given up. They gathered at the edge of the ruins, forming a circle, as if holding some kind of internal meeting. Occasionally, someone would cast a hateful glance in Shen Xi's direction, but quickly look away.

The casual players completely gave up. Some were chatting, some were trading resources, and some were sleeping. Since they wouldn't make it into the top 500 anyway, they might as well conserve their energy and have it all back for dungeons after the tournament.

As the remaining time dwindles.

Shen Xi opened her eyes and glanced at the points leaderboard.

1rd Place: Lord Wu'an – 2847 points

2th Place: Gu Yunting – 2563 points

3nd Place: Mingying – 2184 points

4st Place: Taichu – 2103 points

5th place: Na Luo - 1987 points

6th place: ...

Wu Anjun and Gu Yunting are still vying for first place, Mingying and Naluo are neck and neck, while he is firmly in fourth place.

Not bad.

The sounds of battle in the ruins completely disappeared.

Everyone stopped what they were doing and waited for the first phase to end.

Shen Xi stretched her somewhat stiff body.

Mingying followed behind.

"Let's go," Shen Xi said. "It's time to end things here."

The two walked one after the other toward the open space in the center of the instance.

Wherever it passed, the crowds automatically parted.

It wasn't because they knew Shen Xi, but because of the aura emanating from Shen Xi and Ming Ying, which made people weak in the knees at first glance.

The countdown has ended.

Everyone is waiting.

at last……

[System Announcement: Phase One, "Break Through the Siege," has ended!]

[Points being calculated...]

[Final rankings have been generated!]

[500 players have advanced!]

[The detailed list has been posted to each player's system panel. Please check it yourself!]

Shen Xi opened the panel and glanced at it.

His and Mingying's names were prominently listed.

Expected.

He turned off the panel and looked up.

The surrounding players cheered, dejected, angry, and wept. Those who advanced were beaming with joy; those who were eliminated were crestfallen.

But most people remain silent.

Because they know that the real battle has only just begun.

[System Announcement: The second phase, "Four-Way Battle," will begin in 30 minutes!]

[Countdown: 00:29:59!]

A new countdown has begun!

Shen Xi did not rush to form a team.

He first checked Mingying's condition. Although this guy had killed Helian Tieshu, he had also been injured. There were several cracks in the bone armor on his chest, and a shallow wound on his left arm that was slowly healing.

Shen Xi took out a bottle of intermediate-level healing potion and a roll of high-level hemostatic bandage from her storage space and tossed them over.

"Drink it, then stick with me."

Mingying took the medicine, tilted his head back and drank it down, then clumsily began to wrap the bandage. Shen Xi couldn't bear to watch, so she went over and quickly wrapped it for him, then patted his shoulder.

"Stay close to me during the second phase."

Mingying nodded.

Shen Xi glanced around again.

Those players who advanced have already started frantically recruiting others.

The military personnel acted the fastest. Nine military players quickly gathered around Lord Wu'an, making them the nine strongest military personnel besides Lord Wu'an.

The Gu family members were not slow either. Gu Yunting also had nine of the strongest core members of the Gu family gathered around him.

The Jin and He families are the worst off; they've lost their backbone and can only form teams haphazardly.

The solo players are the most chaotic. They gather in small groups, some sizing each other up, some tentatively negotiating, and some haggling. Some want to find a powerful ally, some want to form a solo group, and some want to go it alone—it's a complete mess.

Shen Xi and Ming Ying, however, were all alone.

No one approached them to team up.

It's not that I don't want to, it's that I don't dare.

The Gu, Jin, and He families hate them to the bone, while the military's attitude is ambiguous.

Shen Xi didn't care.

He glanced at Mingying, then opened the team interface.

[Team Creation: Primordial]

[Invited Player: Mingying]

[Mingying has joined the team!]

[Current team size: 2/10!]

Should we continue the invitation?

Shen Xi directly clicked "No".

Two people are enough.

The surrounding teams gradually completed their formation.

Ultimately, all fifty teams were formed.

Military: 9 full-strength squads.

Gu Family: 7 full squads.

That team: 6 full squads.

Hejia: 3 full squads.

Jin family: 3 full squads.

For solo players: There are 21 teams, some fully staffed and some not, but all are barely formed.

Shen Xi and Ming Ying are still two different people.

All eyes were on Shen Xi and Ming Ying.

These two people were completely out of place with everything around them.

People were whispering among themselves.

"There are only two of them? How are they supposed to fight?"

"The second phase is a battle for strongholds; ten men might not even be enough. Wouldn't two men be suicides?"

"Are you stupid? Those are Taichu and Mingying! Two of them are worth ten!"

"So what if you're worth ten? Outpost battles are all about numbers! No matter how strong you are, can you defend three outposts at the same time?"

"Too……"

Gu Yunting glanced coldly at Shen Xi, his cruelty undisguised.

Two people?

court death.

He turned his head and whispered a few words to the Gu family members beside him. They nodded repeatedly, their eyes gleaming with excitement.

Lord Wu'an also glanced at Shen Xi, his brows furrowing slightly.

He wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

Everyone was ready.

Some were checking equipment, some were taking medicine, and some were whispering.

Countdown is over!

Shen Xi opened her eyes.

He raised his head and looked up at the gray sky.

The second phase is about to begin.

[System Announcement: Phase Two "Four-Way Battle" Begins!]

[Teleportation initiated!]

A blinding white light descended from the sky, engulfing all five hundred players who had advanced!

The feeling of weightlessness lasted only a moment.

When Shen Xi opened her eyes again, she found herself in a completely unfamiliar environment.

It was dark, damp, and cold.

Above was a mottled concrete dome, with crisscrossing pipes coiling like giant blood vessels, some broken, long rust marks hanging from the dangling iron pipes. Underfoot was an uneven concrete floor, covered with a thin layer of sewage, emitting a pungent musty smell.

Scattered all around were abandoned ticket machines, overturned turnstiles, broken GG signs, and some corpses that had long since decomposed beyond recognition.

In the distance, the faint sound of dripping water and a barely audible roar could be heard.

Kyoto subway station.

[System Notification: Kyoto Subway Station instance, all map functions are now unlocked!]

Shen Xi quickly scanned his surroundings and saw the system notification.

Open the map panel.

The entire layout of the "Kyoto Subway Station" instance unfolds before your eyes.

It's a massive underground transportation network, formed by the intersection of three subway lines. With numerous stations and a complex network of passageways, it resembles an underground labyrinth.

In the center of the map, five golden dots are flashing.

stronghold.

Five locations are situated in different parts of the subway station.

Occupy a stronghold and gain 1 point per second.

Ten people, five locations, three hours.

This is the ultimate test of teamwork, tactical execution, and resource allocation.

Shen Xi closed the map and looked up.

In the dimly lit subway station, the figures of other teams could be vaguely seen flickering in the distance.

Fifty teams, five hundred players, are scattered throughout this underground labyrinth.

They both seemed somewhat lonely.

[Regional Channel - Kyoto Subway Station]

"Holy crap! This place is huge! I can't even understand the map!"

"Stop talking nonsense, find a stronghold! First come, first served!"

"Our team only has seven people, how can we fight against those full-strength teams?"

"If you can't beat them, hide! If you can't hide, run! If you can't run, admit defeat!"

"The military is in the East District! The Gu family is in the West District! The Na family is in the South District! The He family is... Why are the Jin and He families heading to the North District?"

"The North District? Isn't that where Tai Chu and the others appeared?"

"Are they seeking revenge?"

"What revenge are they seeking? They couldn't even defeat Helian Tieshu, and now that Helian Tieshu is dead, what makes them think they can?"

"It's all about numbers! Sixty people against two, how can they lose?"

"Too……"

Shen Xi glanced at the regional channels and got a general understanding of the current situation.

This regional channel can be quite useful sometimes.

Are the Jin and He families heading to the North District?

There are sixty people in total, and you're going to take on just the two of them?

court death.

He looked at Mingying.

"Let's go," Shen Xi said. "Someone has delivered themselves to our doorstep."
