When the Royal Knights team defeated their opponents, the top eight teams in this year's Atlético Royal were produced, so all eyes were on who would win the first place in this year's Athletic Tournament, whether it would be the pious Royal Knights team who would win again, or some other team?

This year's team seems to have given people more topics to talk about, in addition to the Royal Knights team, this year's other teams include the Northland Herdsmen from the northern savannah, the Silent Hunters from the dense forests of the south, and the Gulf Gentlemen from Seabreeze City, an important port in the east of the mainland, and the goddess team led by Catherine Landy, who wears a veil even in the arena, these teams have strong strength, and they have defeated their opponents relatively easily in the previous games.

However, more attention was paid to the team composed of the children of two Imperial Ministers: the son of Imperial Minister of State Chad Reeves, the Thunder Squad led by the electric magician Beree Reeves, who was made a genius by the Royal Academy of Magic, and the Thunder Team led by Faras Redia, the youngest daughter of the Imperial Chancellor of the Exchequer, Luke Redia.

There are a lot of speculations about these two teams, and some nobles even said in private: "The God of Light is above, and this year's competitive tournament is simply a war between the two ministers of the Empire." ”

Despite the different opinions, the actual captain of the Lace team, Ryan, sat peacefully in Faraz's small study, leisurely playing "tarot cards" with his teammates.

"Three shooters. Red threw three tarot cards with the archers drawn on them, and said to Ryan, "Ryan, why aren't you in a hurry? ”

Ryan took out three tarot cards depicting them in sacrificial robes, put them on the table, and said unhurriedly, "Three Light Sacrifices." With their mouths on their faces, they can say whatever they want. ”

Farass placed three knights' cards on horses, dressed in thick yellow armor, on the three cards of the Light Sacrifice of Lane, and said, "Ryan, what are you thinking about now? ”

Faraz's words resonated with everyone, and Oz, who was supposed to play the cards, threw all the cards in his hand on the table, and said in a sullen voice: "This tarot card is really tired to play, and I always think about the game in a few days, how can I be in the mood to play this." Ryan, you're our captain, what the hell are you thinking?"

Ryan looked at everyone, saw that their faces were full of doubts, looked at him with inquiring eyes, and couldn't help sighing in his heart, he gently put down the cards in his hand, and said to everyone: "You guys, you can't hold your breath at all." Do you care about winning or losing the next game?"

Alina pouted, "I don't care if I win or lose, so what's the comparison?"

"Process!" Ryan said with a smile, "What we have to do is what we get in a game like this, not just win or lose." To be able to enter the top eight, the strength of each team will not be bad, and the strength of some teams is even above us. When a team of equal strength competes, the mentality of teammates is very important. ”

Speaking of this, Ryan changed his tone and said to everyone in a slightly reproachful tone: "Look at you, one by one you can't calm down, if you really draw the Royal Knights squad as our opponent in the first game, I'm afraid that you are so anxious that your hair will turn gray, right?"

"Phew, bah, bah. Alina spat on the ground and said to Ryan, "Captain, don't curse us, you lich mouth." ”

Ryan smiled silently, and he looked at everyone quietly.

Red said to Alina seriously, "Okay, let's be realistic. Even if the first game isn't, as long as we keep winning, and the Royal Knights team doesn't lose, we'll always meet them, Ryan's words make a lot of sense. ”

Faraz also nodded and said: "Yes, we care too much about the prestige of the Royal Knights squad for twenty years of undefeated, and before it started, there was fear in our hearts, if we really met them, I was afraid that we would lose half of it before we fought." ”

"So," Ryan explained, "all we have to do now is meditate. If we talk about cooperation, can we compare to the Royal Knights team? Do you remember that Big Brother Orlando said that he randomly found five people to come out and compete with the team about the same strength, which shows how amazing the tacit understanding between them is. So all we have to do now is take it easy, don't care about winning or losing, and just enjoy the process. If any of you still can't let go of it, then you can only be a substitute. If you can't let it go, I'd rather go play alone. ”

Speaking of this, Ryan pressed his hand on the table and said resolutely to everyone: "I'd rather lose alone than you go on the field with hesitation, and then regret this matter for the rest of your life!"

Faraz stood up excitedly, grabbed Ryan's hand on the table and said, "Don't worry, captain!

Red, Oz, Elendor, and Alina also reached out their hands and pressed them hard.

The overlapping hands and intertwined eyes made the hearts of the members of Lace Team tightly connected, and at this moment, they were no longer six people alone, but a whole with a common goal!

There is no such thing as a perfect individual, only a perfect team!

A little drop of water is small and insignificant, but when thousands of small droplets gather together and move at full speed in the same direction, it becomes a torrent that can break everything!

――――――――――*――――――――――*―――――――――― "Captain, what are we going to do next?" said young Calvin, panting as he panted to his captain, Christina, as he supported the weight of his body with the long sword in his hand.

Christina, the captain of the Royal Knights' squad, ruffled the hair on her forehead and said to Calvin, who still had a childish look on his face in front of her, "We have just defeated the one hundred and sixteenth opponent since the Holy Knights participated in the competitive tournament, and the next one will be the one hundred and seventeenth. ”

"Understood!" Calvin replied loudly.

Christina strained her right wrist and drew a lion's head in the air with her bayonet sword, and she said loudly to Calvin, "Come on, let's continue." ”

Calvin let out a loud cry, and the fatigue in his body seemed to be thrown aside, and he raised the long sword in the air with both hands and slashed at Christina with all his might.

Christina dodged the longsword sideways, and the stabbing sword in her hand was against the blade of Calvin's longsword, slashing towards Calvin's fingers, and Calvin's hands spun sharply, blocking Christina's stabbing sword.

......

Orlando silently watched from a distance as Christina was practicing non-stop, the biggest secret of the Royal Knights' dominance of the Royal Athletic Tournament for twenty years was this, except for a short sleep every day, all the members of the First Brigade of the Royal Knights would be constantly engaged in various exercises.

Yes, that's right, "diligence" is the biggest reason why the Royal Knights have dominated the Eslar Continent for two hundred years and deterred the enemy.

"What about this year?" Orlando thought silently in his heart, "Can that boy named Ryan rewrite the history of the Royal Knights' squad being undefeated in competitive tournaments for twenty years?"
