Chapter 650: Chapter 650: New Team


    Li Yao swept his gaze over everyone and said, “Even though we are marching into heaven’s trial ground, everyone who participates will gain something. Even those in the teams beyond the ten thousand positions will also receive rewards, two thousand each of both angel and demon crystals.”


    A yer asked, “What if we’re eliminated, do we only get a single chance?”


    Li Yao shook his head, saying, “Of course not. The portal is right here. If you die, you’ll respawn at the nearest graveyard. The first ten deaths will only lose you 10% of your current level’s experience, first fifty will lose you 20% and the first hundred lose 35% of experience. This death count resets each month.”


    “However, if your team gets wiped out during the challenge, that team will lose its qualification for ranking.”


    Someone else asked, “So, we can’t make it past the first stage?”


    Li Yao shook his head, saying, “Not exactly, losing a rank only means you won’tpete in the rankings. Everyone can still participate if the second phase of attack isunched. Those who fail the first challenge will lose their qualifications. But there’s a glimmer of hope. Some teams might be powerful, but had bad luck, and some yers are strong but ended up in a weak team. Therefore, after failing, you can ask the quartermaster for a resurrection mission which, uponpletion, will enable you to rejoin the hero list in the second phase. But the task is extremely challenging.”


    As Li Yao spoke, he waved his arm, and a colossal golden virtual list appeared above the portal. The list was empty for now.


    Li Yao continued, “Lastly, if you want to acquire more advanced sets, don’t lose heart even if you’re eliminated. Monsters inside will drop various kinds of crystals, albeit at a slower rate. Moreover, monsters will also drop corresponding demon or angel prefix equipment piece, wing shards, and so on.”


    Everyone got excited. This is indeed an activity that everyone can participate in! They had seen it, a regr level 25 angel or demon purple equipment was just over a thousand crystals. Level thirty cost over two thousand crystals.


    Meaning, merely by participating one could obtain a set. Moreover, not only do they receive crystals, but they also have a chance to drop items that many ordinary yers simply can’t afford.


    Of course, it’s not that they can’t afford it, but with the level increase, the area will eventually be a transition zone, and much more will be needed for things like mounts.


    Even more unthinkable to yers, the rewards gained here are immense and the penalty for death is much lower.


    In the real world, death results in a level drop, but in the trial ground, the penalty for early deaths is very low.


    Moreover, after ying Age of Gods for such a long time, yers have learned how to stay alive.


    Despite many yers disliking Li Yao, they didn’t dare to voice it. They all knew that the person who would benefit the most from this event was Li Yao. However, under the crazy reward system, no one would foolishly not participate.


    “The stable interdimensional channel will take another half an hour to establish. You all have half an hour to prepare and get your teams ready,” said Li Yao, as a countdown appeared on the enormous hero board.


    After saying this, Li Yao’s figure vanished from the spot and appeared at Starfire’s main city base. Because the real hero board was here, there was also a portal.


    “Big brother, you were too cool just now.” The adorably naive Dang Van excitedly ran over, her eyes lighting up at the sight of the Sword of Justice wreathed in sacred mes.


    However, she couldn’t actually touch the Sword of Justice. It seemed as though the sword didn’t truly exist.


    Li Yao, with the Sword of Justice on his back, said, “You can’t touch it. This is just a projection of the Sword of Justice, and the same goes for the armor I’m wearing.”


    “Damn, you’re not going in with all this equipment are you? That’s too overpowered. What chance does anyone else have?” said the Guardian Angel, green with envy.


    No need to mention it, just from the looks of it one could tell that these were treasures of the Holy Light element.


    “Yup, as I took the main task, I naturally get some preferential treatment. But it’s not as exaggerated as you think. Currently, the boost provided by this Sword of Justice is only an enhanced version of the Light Potion. This armor’s defense is good, but as a ranged unit, I won’t tank monsters, so its function is not very significant. Other features will only kick in once I raise my temporary military rank,” Li Yao exined.


    “What is a temporary military rank?” asked the Unparalleled Seductress.


    “It’s a temporary merit system in heaven. Depending on the number of monsters killed and ranking, the team leader will get a rtively high rank. Raising the temporary rank in heaven would have a simr effect to increasing equipment tier,” Li Yao replied.


    Everyone immediately understood that, also the so-called Lieutenant set and the General Suit.


    “So, even if we exchange for the highest-level Commander Suit, it’s useless if our temporary military rank is not enough?” Li Jie asked.


    Li Yao nodded and said, “That’s right. Moreover, there is only onemander. There wouldn’t be more than fifty to the General Suit, and not more than ten thousand to the Lieutenant, and what I am speaking of is teams, not individuals.”


    “Could Big Brother get us to cheat and get us the title of the Commander Team?” Dang Van’s eyes sparkled at the thought of the attributes of the Commander Suit.


    “As I said, this trial is like a war. While I can make choices about what to do, I can’t dictate the oue. Besides the two items the Archangel gave me, I’m the same as anyone else,” Li Yao gave a bitterugh.


    If it were a task assigned by the queen, he’d pick his own guild and not care about others.


    But he knew that after this event, this map will not disappear. However, the front stage of the Trial Ground will not always be open and one can only stay in it for an hour or two each day.


    This trial ground is destined to be a real daily event, as your level changes it will also vary.


    “Alright, have you prepared your resistance potions and attribute equipment? And have you sorted out your teams? We’ll strive to have Starfire advance as many teams as possible, there are numerous benefits,” said Li Yao.


    Li Jie nodded and said, “We are prepared, and most of the teams have formed spontaneously.”


    Li Yao also joined a team, and Li Jie transferred the team leader’s position to Li Yao.


    Looking at his group, Li Yao noticed some changes among his small team; the veteran group also made some adjustments.


    Main Tank: Fruit Knight.


    Auxiliary Tanks: Guardian Angel and Jin Jin


    Two Healers: Heaven Fragrance and Little Match Girl


    DPS: Li Yao, Feng Yi, Li Jie, Dang Van, Unparalleled Seductress.


    As Da Vinci brought many of her ssmates to join Starfire, she formed her own team. Shadow Dance led an assassin group, and neers like Mu Zi also had their circles consolidate their small teams and were ready to showcase their skills in this event.


    Li Yao was very satisfied with these forms of situations. With these core yers, they could form many impressive teams.@@novelbin@@


    With just their teams, Starfire wouldn’t thrive…
