At this moment, the half-beast people on the other side heard their leader Grom Blackhand's analysis and found it reasonable.
"Leader is right. In a siege battle, we not only have to face these people, but we also have to deal with their city."
"Hmm, that's a valid point. Dealing with these humans will be easy, but their cities might pose a challenge."
"In that case, let's play it safe and choose a group battle."
"Choosing a group battle is indeed a safer option, although it's a shame that the rewards aren't as generous as those for a siege battle."
"What's the big deal? The rewards might be slightly less, but they're still good. Most importantly, if we can eliminate all the humans on the other side, their territory will be wiped out!"
Grom Blackhand was currently observing Liu Yan and the others on the opposite side, trying to discern if something was amiss.
However, Liu Yan and the others had calm expressions, and there was nothing suspicious to be seen.
With no other choice, Grom Blackhand reluctantly agreed to the territory battle.
Although Grom Blackhand had a vague sense that something was off, choosing a group battle was already a very safe option.
Regardless of how safe it was, Grom Blackhand couldn't bring himself to choose a one-on-one battle. That would be too cowardly.
After the decision was made, Grom Blackhand declared, "So be it, let's choose a group battle!"
As he spoke, Grom Blackhand carefully observed Liu Yan's expression.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yan sighed in resignation and said, "Why make things so difficult? Since you're so insistent, we'll also insist on choosing a one-on-one battle. Let everything be determined randomly by the Will of the Tower."
Xu Han said, "It all comes down to luck. Hopefully, luck will be on our side."
Ye Yifan added, "Our luck has been decent. We should be able to randomly select a one-on-one battle."
Hans Wilson chimed in, "May the heavens favor us and grant us a one-on-one battle by random selection!"
He Yang remarked, "The other side is truly quite aggressive!"Jin Cheng said, "We can only rely on luck."
After some discussion, neither Team Origin nor the half-beast people could come to a decision regarding the type of territory battle to engage in. Since neither side could agree, they naturally left it to the Will of the Tower to make the random selection.
The voice of the Will of the Tower soon echoed through the area.
[Since both parties have not reached a consensus, you are unable to discuss and determine the battle method of the territory. We will now randomly determine it!]
[Both sides will submit their respective battle methods, and a random selection will be made, which will be final and cannot be changed!]
As the voice of the Will of Tower rang out, a virtual panel appeared in front of Liu Yan and Grom Blackhand.
On the virtual panel, there were three options, representing the three battle methods, which were one-on-one combat, group combat, and siege combat!
Grom Blackhand glanced at Liu Yan and chose the group battle option directly.
Liu Yan, upon seeing this, smiled faintly and silently selected the group battle as well.
This was undoubtedly the outcome that Liu Yan desired the most. It would lead the half-beast people on the other side to relax their vigilance and opt for a group battle.
Although the half-beast people on the opposing side had chosen a siege battle, it would make things easier for Team Origin.
However, this approach wouldn't provide the kind of training that Liu Yan wanted for his team members. This wasn't the scenario Liu Yan wished to witness.
Choosing a group battle was the optimal choice.
Not only could it serve as an opportunity to sharpen the skills of Team Origin's members, but it could also deal a significant blow to the opposing half-beast people and avenge the suffering humans on the Blue Planet!
Soon, both sides had confirmed their choice of territory battle method, and the voice of the Will of Tower sounded again.
[Both sides have confirmed their choice of territory battle method, and no changes are allowed.]
[Both sides have chosen a group battle or a group battle. There is no need for random selection!]
[The territory battle method has been confirmed, and it will be a group battle!]
[The battle will commence in 5 minutes. All members of both sides will engage in free combat until one side is completely defeated!]
[The victor will receive half of the resources from the other party's warehouse, along with additional rewards!]
[The loser will forfeit half of the resources from their warehouse and will also face penalties!]
[The battle will commence in 5 minutes. Please make preparations!]
After a few announcements from the Will of Tower, its voice faded away completely, leaving the area in silence.
In the sky, a virtual countdown created by the will of the tower began, with five minutes steadily counting down.
When the countdown ended, the barrier separating Team Origin and the half-beast people would dissipate, and this brutal territorial battle would truly commence!
In a group battle, both sides lacked any defensive measures and could only engage in free combat.
Furthermore, this was a battle that involved all members from both sides, making it vast and exceedingly cruel.
The cruelest aspect was that in territorial battles, surrender was not an option. This meant that even if one couldn't overcome the opposing side, they had to be utterly defeated for the territorial battle to conclude.
However, if the opposing side chose to be more ruthless, they could opt to eliminate all the members of the weaker party instead of merely defeating them!
In such a scenario, the weaker side had no choice but to endure and wait in this confined space, a testament to the brutal nature of team battles!
At this moment, the half-beast people on the other side expressed some surprise upon hearing the announcement from the Will of Tower.
After all, the humans on the opposite side had insisted on one-on-one battles. So why had they ultimately chosen a group battle?
"What's going on? What's the other side's intention?"
"Perhaps they made a mistake. The captain on the other side is quite a character!"
"Could someone make such a mistake? It's truly ridiculous!"
"Isn't the other side essentially waiting to be defeated?"
"This is making me laugh. If we had known, wouldn't it have been better for the other side to agree to a group battle directly? It would have saved the Will of Tower from conducting random selections and confirmations!"
These half-beast people, who were not particularly clever, still believed that the humans on the other side were weaker than them. They thought Liu Yan had made a foolish choice by opting for a group battle.
In contrast, Grom Blackhand was more astute. The moment he heard the Will of Tower report, he sensed that something was amiss.
Grom Blackhand carefully observed the expressions of the individuals on the opposite side and noted their calm demeanor.
It was evident that this was precisely what the opposing side desired. There was no mistake in choosing a group battle instead of a one-on-one battle!
Grom Blackhand was quite perplexed. Why did the other party act this way? Were they intentionally putting on an act to deceive them into accepting a territorial battle? Was there a concealed conspiracy at play?
Although Grom Blackhand couldn't fathom the motive behind these actions, he also realized that something was awry.
Grom Blackhand reprimanded the half-beast people beside him, saying, "You imbeciles, you've all been hoodwinked. Yet here you are, mocking the other side! Buckle down and prepare. We must give our all in this battle!"
