Chapter 138: The quarterfinals begin
The news of Scarlett's promotion to the second level of the stars, like wings, soon spread throughout the "Imperial Royal Academy". When the first match of the quarterfinals on the second day began, everyone's eyes were attracted by Scarlett, the leader of the "fighting department" who had been promoted.
"Wow, Scarlett-senpai has advanced to the second level of the stars, which is great. In our 'Imperial Royal Academy', there are only a handful of students in this realm. Now, our 'Martial Arts Department' is really proud of it, and Senior Sister, as the first person in the 'Martial Arts Department', will definitely take us to create brilliance again. Under the stands, a student from the martial arts department said happily.
"Mountain Artillery, you're mistaken! Although Senior Sister Scarlett is powerful, she is not the first person in our 'martial arts department' now, have you forgotten that there is also a first-year classmate Su San? Someone questioned: "I've heard that last night, it was Su San who appeared in time, which helped Senior Sister get through the most dangerous moment and successfully advanced to the second level of Xingchen." ”
"That's right, boar, I forgot that there is still classmate Su San." This classmate named Shanpao sighed: "Actually, it's no wonder that I, this classmate Su San is really good, and he is a freshman, so it's normal for us not to think of him for a while." ”
In the midst of the discussion outside the venue, Su San led his team members onto the field. After helping Scarlett advance yesterday, he hurriedly said goodbye to Vice Dean Philip, Teacher Harris, and Teacher Patricia, who had arrived, and went back to rest.
There was no way, in the process of helping Scarlett advance, Su San's consumption was very huge, almost emptying the energy originally stored in his body. If it weren't for his ability to transform the subtle energy around him with his "Upside Down Five Elements Exercise", Su San would definitely not have survived to the end.
But even so, it will not be easy to fully recover. After Su San returned to his dormitory, he immediately soaked himself in the bathtub and used the cold energy of the ice water to make up for his losses. As for how much Su San has recovered now, only he knows.
The first game of the quarterfinals attracted special attention. The seed team "Mecha Maintenance Department", although the strength is stronger than the "Fighting Department", but in the "Imperial Royal Academy", it has always played the role of a pathetic. This time, due to the existence of the "rookie king" Su San on the other side, they are also not favored.
However, after learning that Su San spent a lot of energy yesterday in order to help Senior Sister Scarlett of the Fighting Department advance to the second level of the stars, the captain of the "Mecha Maintenance Department", Shambaud, felt that his opportunity had come.
When the players on both sides greeted each other, Shambaugh and Su San's hands clasped tightly together: "Su San's name, I really admire it for a long time." When I heard that Your Excellency did another earth-shattering event yesterday, my teammates and I were shocked and admired. ”
Seeing that Su San was still smiling, Shambaugh didn't react, so he changed his words and said, "However, although Su San successfully helped Senior Sister Scarlett advance to the second level of the stars, your own loss must not be low, right?" This makes our 'mecha maintenance department' a little invincible. ”
Su San looked at Shambaud intently, and said with a dumb smile: "Shambaud, don't think too much." We're not in the martial arts department, not my team. Even if I'm not at my best, I still have teammates to rely on. So, it's too early for you to jump to the conclusion now. ”
"It's just that it's not certain who wins and who loses." The big-mouthed Carter said with a big grin: "I said Shambaugh-san, you must know that our 'fighting system' has even defeated the third seed 'telekinesis system', will you be afraid of you, the seventh seed?" ”
When Shambaud heard this, his face sank, and he said coldly: "Very good, since the students of the 'Martial Arts Department' are so confident, then let's see the real chapter on the field!" ”
A word of disagreement, the two sides parted unhappily. Su San shrugged his shoulders, smiled helplessly, turned around and walked towards the preparation room with his teammates.
Sitting in the center of the preparation room, Su San looked up at his teammates around him and said with a smile: "Fifteen minutes left, the game is about to start." Don't just look at me, if you have any good ideas, come up with them. ”
Carter glanced at Strickland beside him, and said hesitantly: "Boss Susan, you really won't go to the individual competition and the ring competition, right?" If we have a mistake, both games are lost, even if this team game wins, we will have to play the play-offs. I guess that's definitely not what you intended, right? ”
Carter's words were unanimously approved by Strickland, Will and others, Will looked at Su San, and said hesitantly: "Boss Su San, we all know that you helped Senior Sister Scarlett advance yesterday, and the consumption was very large. However, if you play in the individual competition, this is absolutely a guarantee of 9 out of 10. The other party won't even dwell too much on you and will give up. Do you think about it again? ”
Su San smiled, and just wanted to explain something, but Setler on the side suddenly spoke: "A few of you are wrong, Su San can naturally win this ten points in the individual competition." But, didn't you pay attention to what the other party's Shambaugh just said? He had already seen Su San's weakness, and he would definitely not let go of the opportunity to consume him. In my opinion, the opponent is likely to send a difficult figure in the individual competition, aiming to consume Su San. If Su San plays in the ring, the result will be the same. In this way, do you still think Su San should play? ”
Setler's words made Carter and the others look at each other, and they knew that Setler's worries were not unreasonable. If the other party is ruthless and has to exhaust Su San's oil, it will definitely be done. As everyone knows, the students of the "Mecha Maintenance Department" are most famous for their endurance.
Setler's words were not finished yet, and after seeing the doubts on everyone's faces, she continued: "Another thing we need to pay attention to is that Su San is not just this event today. In the afternoon, he also had to represent the 'Power Department' to the 'Ancient Martial Arts Research Department', without a good physical reserve, it would definitely not work. ”
When Carter heard this, he said in frustration: "If you don't say it, Sister Zettler, I have forgotten about this stubble." Yes, Su San Boss is not only unique to our 'fighting system', he also has another maternal 'power system'. ”
Seeing everyone's loss, Su San said a little embarrassed: "Actually, it's not so suspenseful, the main thing is to let Zettler play more." ”
Su San continued to explain: "Several of you also know that this rookie competition of our 'Imperial Royal Academy' is to prepare for the rookie competition of the four major academies in a few months. Although Zetler's strength is not outstanding, her strong mental strength and willpower are impressive. I think Principal Christine should have noticed her. As long as Zetler can play better in the quarterfinals, there is a good chance of getting a place in the rookie competition......"
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized. Indeed, Zettler is not one of the thirty-eight star-level newcomers in this class. But other than that, her performances are very eye-catching. The "martial arts" competition is not over yet, and there are already good things to do, ranking it 21st in the power list of this rookie competition.
Once Zetler has another amazing performance in this quarter-finals and even in the following games, her position will skyrocket. In view of this, Su San will be particularly concerned about Zetler's performance.
"Yes, yes, it's still Su San's foresight." Strickland said with a smile, "Zetler's strength has been recognized by everyone, and she is also the second leader of our 'martial arts department' besides you." Su San's decision, I unconditionally support. ”
"Yes, yes, Sister Zettler has already overleaped three star level strongmen in a row. If you win another Stellar opponent in the individual competition a little later, you will set a big record. I also support Sister Zettler to take the lead! ”
Zetler didn't seem to expect Su San to lead the topic to herself, she blushed slightly, glanced at Su San, didn't speak, and acquiesced to his arrangement.
Fifteen minutes passed quickly. As Sattler and Shambaugh both stood on the field, the audience suddenly discovered that in this competition, the "fighting department" once again had a moth, and their captain Su San once again missed the appointment.
"Why has the formation of the fighting department always been so strange?" Some viewers discussed: "Other strong teams, often in such a game, will let their most confident players grab the ten points of the individual competition." And the martial arts department is good, their captain Su San has not appeared in the individual competition once. It's really puzzling. ”
"There's nothing hard to understand." Someone explained, "As you can see, it's their No. 2 fighter, Setler. Although the realm of this ice beauty is only level seven of moonlight, its true strength has definitely reached the star level. Moreover, it is still the more powerful one in the star level. It is precisely because of Zetler's excellent performance that the fighting system can be freely retracted when the troops are arranged. ”
"Yes, Zetler, a female classmate, is indeed very powerful. Especially her amazing willpower, even if she encounters an opponent who is stronger than herself, she can still fight back and forth with the opponent. ”
"Yes, Zetler, he is recognized by everyone as the first person below the star level in this rookie competition, and it is precisely because of this."
On the field, Zettler looked coldly at the opponent more than ten meters away, waiting for the bell to start the game.
Shambaugh, the strength of the first level of the stars, the captain of the rookie team of the "Mecha Maintenance Department". In terms of strength, he should be the strongest in the team, even among the thirty-eight star-level players, he should be in the forefront.
In Setler's opinion, the other party sent Shambaugh to play in the individual competition, which should be to snipe Su San. But alas, this time, their wish was disappointed. Thinking of this, a rare smile appeared on Zetler's face.
