I Am Overlord

hey are allowed to fight.
We can't send our people to their deaths like this.
Our morale is plummeting.”

His suggestion received the support of the majority of the young Gods.
Thus, a committee of judges was selected and formed from the strongest of the young Gods.
They would be the ones to decide on the combatants.

After all, with the strength of these young Gods, it wouldn't be much of an issue for them to detect the stronger ones among the Saints.
Xiang Shaoyun was excluded from the committee, but he did not care.
In any case, he still needed some time.
He would not easily make a move.
When it was finally time for him to make a move, he would accomplish something so great that he would shock everyone with that one singular feat.

The third round would proceed among seventh-stage Saints.
As usual, no combatant from Xiang Shaoyun's group was selected.
However, a lady of the Guangling Palace had been selected as a combatant.

For the third round, they did much better.
Of the ten combatants, three were victorious, while the other seven perished in battle.
Holding the complete upper hand, the aliens became increasingly arrogant.
As for the humans, their confidence had been completely crushed.

After the three rounds, the humans were forced to ask for a break and to resume the fights on a different day.
The aliens did not mind.
They were confident they could deal with any trick the humans might come up with.

The humans retreated to a nearby lifeless planet.
There, Qin Jiu and Gongsun Sanyang gathered the numerous young Gods for a discussion.
Most of them arrived, including even Xiang Shaoyun.
This concerned the fate of humans, so he would gladly partake in it.

“Everyone, you saw what happened.
For the three rounds today, we suffered a crushing defeat.
If this continues, it is only a matter of time before we suffer complete defeat.
There will be no hope for us when the actual war starts,” said Qin Jiu.

“What do you have in mind, Young Master Jiu?” asked someone.

“I suggest that we pick the combatants for tomorrow right now and supply them with some trump cards that they can use to obtain victory tomorrow,” suggested Qin Jiu.

“Would it be proper for us to achieve victory with the help of tools?” asked Gongsun Sanyang.

“Why does that matter? Anything goes for victory,” said Qin Jiu.

“That would only make us look weak,” argued Gongsun Sanyang.

“We have already lost three rounds.
Do you want this to continue?” asked Qin Jiu.

At this time, Ji Feixian said, “Everyone, stop hiding your strength.
I believe all of you have stronger experts under you.
Let them fight and supply them with the best equipment.
If we lost even with that, then there's nothing I can say.”

“That's right.
Some changes are needed if we want to win,” said Mo Du.

“Sure, we can do that for the fight between the Saints.
What about the fight between Gods?” asked Gongsun Sanyang.

Everyone sank into silence.
They could use god-grade weapons to help their Saints win, but for the fight between Gods, who would be willing to hand their trump cards to others? Furthermore, there was the risk that they would lose the supplied equipment in the event of a defeat.

“Let's focus on the battle between Saints first.
We will switch tactics during the battle between Gods,” said Qin Jiu.

“I think we should ask for that overlord's opinion.
He once led an army of one thousand to the outside domain.
He has more courage than many among us.
Perhaps he will have a good suggestion,” Celestial War King suddenly said.

Di Lin, who had been keeping a low profile, also chimed in, “Yes.
That overlord claims himself to be unrivaled among his peers.
He's also the brilliant disciple of Lord Ge Yi.
Perhaps he will have a good suggestion for us.”

That caused everyone to focus on Xiang Shaoyun, curious as to what he would do.

Xiang Shaoyun raised his head and smiled.
“Are you asking for my suggestion?”

“Since everyone is asking, say what you have in mind,” said Qin Jiu.

“I think that there is no need for us to waste our time like this.
We should just directly trash all the aliens,” said Xiang Shaoyun domineeringly.
