The heavy alloy doors were tightly shut, blocking out the sounds of the tense standoff on the landing pad outside.
A massive holographic screen floated in the center of the room, displaying live views of the scene outside from multiple angles.
The enormous crimson-gold hull of Lieyang's flagship occupied the upper half of the screen, while Demon One's ink-black hull stretched across from it. Countless gun ports had locked onto one another, like two giant beasts ready to tear into each other at any moment.
Several instructors from the Super God Academy sat around the long table in front of the screen. Their expressions varied, but all wore the particular calm of spectators watching a spectacle.

An elderly man wearing round-framed glasses turned his head and asked.
The man called Old Li wore a white research uniform, his hands clasped behind his back. His gaze remained fixed on the black demonic figure on the screen, and he was silent for a moment before speaking. "Hard to say. Although Du Kao and his people now have Morgana's support, as long as Di Hongkun steels himself and blows up this region of Dragon Country, Lieyang still has a very good chance of winning."
"So you're leaning toward Lieyang?"
Old Li shook his head. "I've looked into Di Hongkun. He's very ambitious, but he's also clearheaded enough.
