CHAPTER 456: 326 BOOKSTORE SPECIAL SUPPLY_2

The bow and arrow darted freely across the field. Using the Hollow Bamboo from Chi Bear to restrain the enemy was nothing short of a stroke of genius...

Even more commendable, Du Yu was not one to be blindly insatiable for merit.

He clearly analyzed the situation, offered the optimal solution for the battlefield, and willingly handed the sand to Snow Deer, Lin Shiwei.

Such an answer sheet, presented in this specific environment, was indeed excellent. But the problem was...

Once the direction is wrong, the harder you try, the more absurdly wrong it gets!

"What is that?" Du Yu’s gaze swept past Xiang Qi, looking at the giant Sandman closing in from behind.

Lin Shiwei’s eyes narrowed slightly, using Extreme Eye Power: "The Northern Commander-in-Chief?"

The Sandman’s body was battered beyond recognition. The wounds on his arms and thighs were exactly like the Sand General who had knelt in the mansion earlier.

Xiang Qi seemed to realize something as well, his speed in flight slowed, and he turned his head to look back.

Soon after, Xiang Qi’s face changed dramatically in shock!

The Northern Corps’ Commander-in-Chief?

What’s going on? Why is he able to join the battle?

Why!?

Why has our Southern Corps’ Commander-in-Chief remained indifferent all this time?

Could it be...

Xiang Qi’s heart skipped violently. Could it be that Lin Shiwei has stacked enough layers of Killing Sand?

Other than that, Xiang Qi couldn’t find any other reason for a Corps commander-in-chief to have ’revived’.

Lin Shiwei... just how many layers of sand did she stack?

Was my choice too reckless? Should I have gone for the Battle of Guandong first?

But Shaohai’s threat was too great. Taking advantage of his absolute advantage to nip Shaohai in the bud—that should have been the right call...

"Hoo~" Xiang Qi flapped the butterfly wings, suddenly dodging to the side.

The battered Northern Commander-in-Chief paid no attention whatsoever to the insignificant humans, and charged straight at Lin Shiwei.

"Buzz!"

Lin Shiwei furrowed her brow, feeling the shaft of the spear trembling incessantly.

The layers of coiling sand wrapped around Lin Shiwei’s body while at the same time streaming toward the incoming Northern Commander-in-Chief.

Du Yu: ???

A third phase?

Ever since the exam began, the students had been led by the nose by the study house.

The first phase was the siege battle.

Only after figuring out the various settings and bringing the subdued Ancient Desolate General into play were they forcibly dragged into Phase Two: Faction Strife.

Under the assassination of the Shandai Student, everyone had no choice but to grit their teeth and enter the second stage of the assessment.

At this moment, Du Yu and Lin Shiwei were still striving in phase two, when the abnormality occurred once more!

The sudden appearance of the Northern Commander-in-Chief completely altered the battlefield situation.

In truth, this wasn’t abrupt at all.

The rule-abiding Divine Weapon·Ancient Wilderness Hammer had always acted according to pre-set rules, never partial or prejudiced.

Aside from the sand bestowed by the commander-in-chief, when any soldier stacks twenty layers of sand, the commander may use that soldier’s body to return to the Ancient Wilderness City!

"Shiwei!" Du Yu grabbed Lin Shiwei’s arm, only to have it easily bounced off by the sand.

Lin Shiwei was swept away by the flowing river of fine sand, heading straight for the Northern Commander-in-Chief.

Not only that, but the two layers of sand coiled around Du Yu’s bow were also taken by the Northern Commander-in-Chief.

"Nai?" Bai Lu was somewhat at a loss, her master having been snatched away while she herself, with Du Yu on her back, was blasted several meters backward.

"Ugh." Lin Shiwei struggled desperately, but the endless quicksand gave her no chance at all.

With a bizarre "pop," Lin Shiwei was utterly swallowed by the commander’s ruined body!

"AH!!" the Northern Commander-in-Chief let out a furious roar, the flowing river of fine sand rapidly repairing the tattered body, which grew larger and larger, meticulously sculpted.

Finally, a sand giant over three meters tall shockingly appeared!

The commander’s body was sculpted from yellow sand into exquisite perfection.

So much so that everyone could see clearly—the template was exactly Lin Shiwei’s body, remolded into a gigantic form.

Upon that beautiful face, sand-carved eyes brimmed with murderous intent, the aura overwhelming.

Rage and killing intent so intense it set hearts pounding in terror.

She stood aloft in midair like this, ruling the world.

"Shi—" Du Yu hadn’t finished his words, but hurriedly ducked his head, hiding behind Bai Lu’s neck.

Because the commander "Lin Shiwei" turned and swept her arm, and a tide of yellow sand crashed forth without end!

"Nai~~~" Bai Lu let out a miserable wail, the Deer Antler Flower Shield shattering with a bang, even the Demon Breath Battle Robe was covered in cracks and blown away directly.

Xiang Qi’s face transformed drastically!

The Spirit Level·Great Success Stage Dust Spirit Deer actually couldn’t put up any resistance!

The commander "Lin Shiwei" reached forward, and an overwhelming wave of yellow sand surged at Xiang Qi.

Xiang Qi frantically urged the Celestial Flash Butterfly, desperately beating its wings, turning tail to flee!

The Northern Commander-in-Chief immediately gave chase; before even reaching Xiang Qi, she flung her hand down, and a surge of yellow sand rushed towards the ground.

"Ah ah... mm." A Shandai Student who had been hiding behind a building was instantly swallowed by the yellow sand.

And not only that, even that entire section of buildings crashed down in ruins.

In this moment, the vast Ancient Wilderness City seemed pitifully fragile beneath the commander’s feet.

"Are you okay?" Du Yu patted Bai Lu’s neck.

"Master is in no mortal danger, but she can’t control her own body." Through the Demon Soul, Bai Lu transmitted a message to Du Yu.

Du Yu’s expression was grave—Lin Shiwei had been possessed by the Northern Commander-in-Chief?

Soul snatching... er, body recasting?

"Ahhh! Ah ah ah... mm." From far in the sky came Xiang Qi’s wretched screams.

Then, the cries were smothered in yellow sand, vanishing without a trace.

Having taken the sand from Xiang Qi, layers upon layers of yellow sand wrapped the Northern Commander-in-Chief’s body, growing even larger!

This time, she surpassed five meters tall, and the entire Hunting Garden below seemed to have become a miniature playground.
