The cities and tribes within a hundred miles fell into chaos, with civilians scrambling to escape, and brave warriors voluntarily joining the fray.

The battle gradually expanded, becoming the largest war in the Yunding Empire over the past century.

It was also the first time since the Empire’s split that the Three Feudal Lords united to fight the enemy!

...

Despite their privileged upbringing, Tian Chen and Tian Xi fought fiercely on the battlefield, indistinguishable from ordinary soldiers.

Their bodies were covered in wounds, faces smeared with blood, yet they seemed to feel no pain. Whenever their strength was exhausted, they would gulp down a Recovery Potion and charge back into the enemy ranks.

This was much more exhilarating than the Trial!

Tian Chen was struck by an arrow and briefly slowed, but a Wind Blade swept past him from behind, slicing the attacker in half.

Tian Xi tossed a potion to him, shouting, "Second Brother, focus!"

Tian Chen caught the potion and drank it, scoffing, "Don’t underestimate your second brother; these ants can’t harm me!"

Tian Xi suggested cheerfully, "Second Brother, let’s continue the competition~"

If the Trial Land couldn’t be the battleground, then let the battlefield be the trial!

Tian Chen laughed heartily, "Alright! Let’s see who cuts down more enemies and who breaks through first! Don’t blame your brother then!"

"If Second Brother loses, don’t cry like when you were a kid."

"Nonsense! It was you who cried!"

While bantering, the siblings deftly took down several more foes.

On this life-or-death battlefield, their power became increasingly refined, showing signs of breakthrough!

Meanwhile, Tian Lin looked at his dwindling forces, his face extremely grim.

He thought he could capture the Three Kings in one fell swoop and unify the Yunding Empire, but reality hit hard and fast!

He calculated everything, except the unexpected strength of Shen Tang and Lu Xiao, which turned the tide of battle.

If things continued like this, he was likely to suffer a disastrous defeat!

No, he absolutely could not lose.

He couldn’t afford the price of failure.

This battle, he could only win, not lose!

Tian Lin glared towards the distant Shen Tang and Lu Xiao, who were fighting fiercely against the black-clad men. If it weren’t for these two troublemakers, he would already be on the throne.

Since he couldn’t have it, no one else would either!

Finally, his gaze fell on Tian Chen and Tian Xi, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes, then turned to merciless coldness. He gripped his sword tightly and crept closer.

Tian Chen was in fierce battle with several Beastmen, never expecting to be ambushed by Tian Lin.

Tian Lin’s strength far exceeded his; even if perceived, it was too late to evade. His left shoulder was pierced by the blade, blood gushed out, flesh torn, bone visible.

But being of Peak of Eighth Rank, Tian Chen was no match for Tian Lin. Even with full resistance, he couldn’t withstand more than five moves and was soon rendered almost lifeless.

Tian Lin had long hated this second brother, who had defied him since childhood. He smiled cruelly, "Second Brother, learn to behave in your next life; don’t be so annoying."

After speaking, he raised the sword again to finish Tian Chen.

At the critical moment, Tian Xi rushed forward to block the attack.

She looked sadly at her once-brother, "Big Brother, are you really going to be enemies with us to the end?"

Tian Lin’s face was sulky, "Get out of the way! Or I’ll kill you too!"

Third Sister looked at what her brother had become, feeling extremely unfamiliar.

For power and desire, he had lost himself.

"Since Big Brother is still lost, don’t blame me for being unkind!" Tian Xi wielded her sword fiercely, launching an immediate counterattack.

Swords clashed, lightning sparkled, the air seemed to reverberate with a sharp wail.

The Prince’s sword, made of the world’s hardest material, combined with his superpower, could unleash terrifying power.

Their hair and sleeves danced wildly in the violent energy, their eyes surging with fighting spirit.

Tian Xi made one last plea, "Big Brother, stop."

"Today, anyone who blocks me will die!"

Boom!

The Peak of Tenth Rank’s superpower poured out, and their swords broke simultaneously.

At the same time, Tian Lin’s hands transformed into sharp claws, wind blades swirling in his palms, he aimed straight for Tian Xi’s heart!

"Third Sister!"

"Xi’er!"

Not far away, Tian Chen and Xing Ye saw this, their faces changed drastically, but they were too late to stop it, their hearts seemed to tear.

Only Seventh Rank Tian Xi was no match for Tian Lin!

She was doomed.

However, the bloody scene that was expected did not unfold. A vortex of wind appeared in front of Tian Xi, blocking Tian Lin, who was at the Peak of Tenth Rank!

This turn of events shocked Xing Ye and Tian Chen with delight, and left Tian Lin’s face written with disbelief.

How could it be? How could the weak Third Sister possibly stop him?
