Jamie nodded, his expression serious, while Adrian leisurely leaned back into his seat to watch the showdown.Rustle, rustle, rustle!!!The footsteps through the forest in the mountains were exceptionally loud because of how quiet the forest was. Juno’s team was getting closer. Sage, who was laying low in the bushes, slowly raised her right hand. According to her plan, her team would attack the moment she drops her right hand. Meanwhile, Juno looked oblivious to Sage's presence. Ba-dump! Ba-dump! Ba-dump!!!The spectators on the stand were so nervous they could feel their hearts pounding as beads of cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. 'They're close!’'They're getting closer!'At that moment, Juno and Sage were no more than a hundred meters apart. Judging by the situation, Juno seemed unaware of the ambush Sage had laid out. The spectators were anxious for Juno, while some were wondering if Sage was truly going to eliminate Juno’s team half an hour into the showdown.

Both teams were now at the center of the canyon and were engaged in a fight. Surprisingly, there were only five thousand soldiers in Jerome's team. The others, including Jerome himself, were nowhere to be seen. Similarly, almost half of Remy's men, including Remy himself, were nowhere to be seen. Then, the screen changed again. "Look! Up there!" someone suddenly shouted, attracting everyone’s attention. Boom! Boom! Boom!!!Boulders exploded, while Remy and Jerome were leaping higher and higher with the help of tree branches as they engaged in a mid-air fight. Their fight was so quick that the spectators could not keep up with what was happening. Nobody could tell who would emerge victorious.Meanwhile, Zack was being shown on another section of the screen. Similarly, many of his teammates were missing from sight. He was leading barely half his members to the center of The Dome. The crowd then suddenly realized that Polaris and his men were rushing toward the canyon Remy and Jer

"I'm sure Remy and Polaris' five thousand teammates are somewhere near the canyon, ready to jump in should things go sideways. But Jerome's teammates have probably already left the canyon long ago, which is why I say they're carrying Jerome's victory dreams."This is the backup plan Jerome's come up with against a two-versus-one situation. This is a team competition, so even if Jerome is eliminated, his team will still be victorious if his teammates win. He’s using the rules to his advantage.”The others finally understood what Jerome had planned. The five thousand from Jerome's team had left the canyon and their leader behind. On the contrary, Polaris and Remy's teammates were close by, ready to assist whenever called upon. Based on this, what seemed to be an advantage for Polaris and Remy was now null and void thanks to Jerome's superior tactics.However, Jerome was taking a huge risk with this strategy. It required absolute trust on his part for him to entrust everything to his t

"You must never be hasty and try to win instantly, be it on the battlefield or anywhere else. This will confuse your judgment. The biggest mistake you made today was to try and defeat Jerome as quickly as you can, hence why all of this happened.""I'm sorry, sir. At the time, I thought Jerome's team would be easily crushed if I eliminated him.""You're not fighting alone, but as a unit. You should've used your teammates to achieve victory, not through your own skills alone. Working together as a team to secure a victory is the most important thing, even more so than your life. Jerome understands this concept and uses this to his advantage. He may have been eliminated, but he isn’t the star of the show. Instead, it's his teammates. "He placed all his hopes on his teammates and sacrificed himself to take you two down with him. In this situation, not only will you be unable to crush the remainder of his team, they’ll become even more motivated. This will trigger whatever potential the

Both of them were waiting for the other's team to dwindle in numbers before sending out the ones in hiding to turn the tides. But it was evident that neither of them were going to get what they wanted.They were looking for a chance to make a temporary retreat, but neither of them could initiate the retreat. After all, the team who retreated first may end up being scattered. Thus, their stalemate persisted, and the fight continued, with both leaders gasping for air from exhaustion.Jerome turned toward Adrian and said, "Juno and Sage are stuck in a stalemate, so I think they're going to give it their all now.""How long have they been fighting?" Adrian asked.“Close to five hours," Gloria replied. Adrian frowned. "I don't think Juno's legs can last much longer.""What?" Samantha and Rue nervously looked at the screen, where it was clear Juno's legs were trembling. The five-hour fight was starting to take its toll."Can you stop the fight? I'm worried Juno's leg injury will fl
