824 Second Trial 143 (1/2)

The Angel Clan army burst backward in unison, retreating without flaw.

Seeing this, the opposing army wanted to attack, but Amphorae's timing and micro-management was just too perfect.

In an instant, the Angel Clan army appeared far behind the line Dyon had drawn before the battle began. Dyon had done this very deliberately, accounting for the possibility of him becoming incapacitated during battle. Although Amphorae was very intelligent, she didn't have the same knowledge of formations that he did. It was impossible for her to understand things in a glance like he could. So, he left her a marker.

Obviously, Amphorae's mother also had this ability since she was the one who set up the formation with Dyon's instructions. However, Dyon's mother-in-law wasn't the one commanding the army. Adding an extra step of communication could make or break a strategy. This was why Dyon didn't only communicate with his leaders so that they could then communicate with their squads. Instead, he directly communicated with everyone.

The Moon Clan warriors surged forward after the Angel Clan army.

It wasn't that they were so brave, it was just that they were frustrated. They spent over ten minutes fighting with no results at all, and in the end, they were left with a measly few tens of thousands of their original near three hundred thousand number. It was completely humiliating!

However, those that remained were obviously among the most powerful of them, and with that came added wisdom and intelligence. They could tell that the angels were retreating in order to prepare for what was clearly their reinforcements.

Unfortunately, they were too eager and much too proud of their own analysis. In all of this, they forgot one important thing: The Barrier!

Amphorae hardly had to try. Using the barrier was made easy by the mechanisms Dyon put in place, allowing array plates to work like an off and on switch. Before they could even react, the Moon Clan army was once again trapped within the barrier with no way out!

Their faces burned with rage and embarrassment. How could they possibly fall for the same trick twice? If Dyon was aware of the situation right now, he'd likely be dying of laughter at their stupidity.

In truth, it wasn't entirely their fault. They had simply fallen for Dyon's schemes once again.

When the Viserion clan elder attacked, it had looked like the barrier was going to collapse. In fact, large cracks appeared in it very clearly. And after the attack, Dyon retracted the barrier!

With their knowledge of ancient clan formation, barriers couldn't be so simply pulled up and down like Dyon's could. They should require meticulous preparation. And that was even if the barrier wasn't as damaged as Dyon's was after that dao formation attack!
