As soon as he finished speaking, a huge light screen appeared behind him.
The images on the screen kept flashing.
The names of the various teams change back and forth at the top.
Xu Jintang leaned back leisurely in his chair, tilting his head slightly back, his gaze fixed on the light screen.
A few seconds later, the image on the light screen froze.
Team matchmaking results are in.
"Damn it, we've been put in the first match!"
"Thank goodness, that scared me to death! We don't compete until the day after tomorrow, so we still have time to prepare."
"Oh no, we're assigned to fight against the Joint Military Academy team..."
Some were happy, some were sad, and various discussions arose at the scene.
The host raised the microphone and continued, "Now, players from the teams matched for today's matches, please proceed to the waiting area to prepare. Other teams may decide whether to remain and watch the matches."
"Today's first match is between the Ur Military Academy Team and the Joint Military Academy Team. Each match in our qualifiers will be a five-player team battle. Now, please welcome both teams to the pre-match preparation area. The qualifiers will officially begin in ten minutes."
Soon, the teams that were not drawn for today's matches left the stage.
In the pre-match preparation area, only two teams remained who were about to take the stage.
The five members of the Joint Military Academy Team come from different military academies and are all top players in their respective academies.
The captain, with his arms crossed in front of him, exuded arrogance and a haughty air.
The other team members mostly had similar expressions; after all, each of them was a top student in their respective military academies, so it was normal for them to have this kind of imposing presence.
Satellite cameras hovering in the air captured this scene.
A large number of real-time comments quickly popped up in the already opened live stream room:
[This Joint Military Academy Team of five looks pretty formidable.]
[Definitely, these five are the top students from their respective military academies.]
[But they probably haven't been together for very long, so their teamwork in team fights might not be very high.]
[Well, we'll see once the game starts.]
The other side is the pre-match waiting area.
The five members of the Ur Military Academy Team stood in a circle, their faces extremely solemn.
"Captain, this joint military academy is not easy to deal with."
The team captain raised his hand to interrupt his teammates, "The match hasn't even started yet, stop talking such discouraging things. No matter how strong the opponent is, we just need to do our best."
The team members exchanged hesitant glances, then nodded. "Yes!"
Time passed by, second by second.
The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly lively.
Various predictions and discussions began to emerge from the audience.
"Come on, let's start betting! Which side do you think will win?"
"It'll definitely be Joint Military Academy Team."
"What if the Ur Military Academy members have a killer move?"
Song Tianqi and the others nearby also started chattering amongst themselves.
"Keep a close eye on these five people from the Joint Military Academy. See if they might pose a threat to us," Song Tianqi said first.
Yan Yuting rested his chin on his hand, sizing up the five men. "They seem to have a strong presence. I wonder how they'll perform in actual combat."
Wei Zixuan raised his hand. "I looked at their information a few days ago. They seem to be fairly strong, but they're probably not strong enough to threaten us."
Xu Jintang rested her chin on her hands and turned to look. "Let's take a look first."
Everyone stopped their discussion and turned their attention to the arena.
The ten-minute break is over.
The host reappeared on the ring.
He raised the microphone high, "Please welcome the members of both teams to the stage to prepare!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the Joint Military Academy Team and the Ur Military Academy Team simultaneously stepped onto the arena from both sides.
Satellite cameras took off simultaneously, capturing close-up shots of the members of both teams.
The members of both teams took their positions and began shaking hands and introducing themselves.
" Sun Mengze the Joint Military Academy Team, Mental Strength Level Fourth Tier."
" Joint Military Academy Team..."
The ten people quickly finished their self-introductions.
Meanwhile, the host, who was in charge of acting as the referee, rode back onto the hovering ball and made a gesture from top to bottom.
"The first match, the Joint Military Academy Team vs. the Ur Military Academy Team, is now beginning!"
As soon as the words were spoken, the members of the two teams, who had been smiling, turned cold and quickly activated their powers, charging towards each other.
The sounds of fierce fighting echoed across the arena.
A wide variety of skills and moves were displayed simultaneously before the audience, dazzling them with their own eyes.
Xu Jintang's gaze followed the members of the Joint Military Academy Team as they moved back and forth.
After watching for about two minutes, she rubbed her shoulders and looked away. "These two teams pose no threat to us."
Song Tianqi, who was standing next to him, yawned, "Hey, I thought he was some kind of big shot."
"The five members of the Joint Team are actually quite strong individually, but their teamwork is terrible, and all their tactics are full of flaws."
"In a 1v1 situation, they might pose a threat to us. But in a team fight, they have almost no chance of winning," Wei Zixuan remarked.
Whether it's Yu Wanyao's team or the five members of Xu Jintang's experimental class, their teamwork is extremely high, and the combat power they can unleash far exceeds their individual abilities.
In this respect, the Joint Military Academy Team poses no threat whatsoever.
Fifteen minutes later, the last member of the Ur Military Academy Team was knocked off the stage, marking the end of the match.
The host jumped down from the floating sphere and raised his hand to stop the match. " The Joint Military Academy Team has won this match!"
Cheers erupted from one section of the stands. "Joint Military Academy! Joint Military Academy!"
The defeated Ur Military Academy Team members stood dejectedly below the arena, remaining silent.
The subsequent matches were all within the audience's expectations, with no Dark Horse Team making a comeback.
Until there were only two games left.
Xu Jintang was getting drowsy watching it and kept yawning.
She was about to go back to sleep when suddenly an exclamation rang out. "Holy crap, I've never heard of this military academy before!"
"They actually managed to beat the Joint Military Academy Team, that's pretty impressive."
"Would you call this a Dark Horse Team?"
Xu Jintang immediately opened his eyes and looked at the arena.
"What's going on?" Song Tianqi, who was next to him, opened his eyes at the same time, leaned forward in surprise, and stared at the situation on the stage.
"It seems that an unremarkable small military academy team won against the joint military academy team," Yan Yuting said with a surprised look.
"Huh?" Wei Zixuan looked up in surprise.
Although they didn't take the Joint Military Academy seriously, in terms of overall strength, the Joint Military Academy is still quite powerful. To defeat them, the team would have to be at least ranked within the top 100.
But the team that just won the battle was only a small military academy ranked very low.
" Green Sail Vine Military Academy emerges victorious in this team battle!"
Chapter 212
As soon as the host finished speaking, all eyes immediately turned to the Green Sail Vine Military Academy Team on the stage.
The Green Sail Vine Military Academy members wore matching bright green school uniforms.
The five team members varied in height and build, all with their hands on their hips and relaxed, calm smiles on their faces, seemingly unaffected by their victory.
The five members of the opposing Joint Military Academy Team, who had lost the match, all looked rather grim.
Although this round was just a points-based competition and losing wouldn't mean elimination, it was still somewhat embarrassing for the five of them, as top students from various military academies, to be defeated by a team from an unremarkable military academy.
The competition ended, Green Sail Vine Military Academy members left the stage one by one.
Xu Jintang's gaze followed their movements until the five members of the Green Sail Vine Military Academy disappeared from sight.
"Have you heard of this Green Sail Vine Military Academy?" Song Tianqi asked curiously as he leaned closer.
Yan Yuting shook his head. "No, it must be a small, unknown military academy, otherwise we would have heard some news about it."
Yu Wanyao said calmly, "I just checked, and Green Sail Vine Military Academy is a small military academy newly established last year, with a total of less than one hundred people. But the five people who just came up on stage all have a mental strength level of over Fourth Tier, which is comparable to the five major military academies."
"Tsk." Xue Zhongqi clicked his tongue. "Their average strength is above the Fourth Tier, which is stronger than ours. It's quite amazing that a military academy established just last year can assemble a team of this caliber."
Xu Jintang chuckled, "That's interesting."
After the first day of the qualifiers, the five members of the Green Sail Vine Military Academy Team became an internet sensation.
[Oh my god, yesterday we were wondering if Dark Horse Team would suddenly emerge, and today it has!]
[This Green Sail Vine Military Academy is truly impressive; all its members possess mental strength at level Fourth Tier or higher, surpassing even the top five military academies in strength.]
[Great, this league seems even more interesting.]
After leaving the scene, Xu Jintang and his group immediately returned to the villa and held an emergency meeting.
"I just checked online. This Green Sail Vine Military Academy was established last year. The entire faculty is mediocre, even poor. Moreover, the person who founded the academy applied in an individual capacity, and their mental strength level is only Seventh Tier."
Qin Shuxue reported the information she had found in succession.
Xu Jintang raised an eyebrow slightly. "So how did an obscure military academy manage to recruit five team members whose abilities far surpass those of their peers?"
Yu Wanyao pursed her lips, her tone becoming serious, "I'm quite worried that this military academy isn't as simple as it seems."
"Sigh, this is definitely not simple. What military academy could produce five Fourth Tier soldiers with nothing better to do?" Song Tianqi rubbed his hands and loosened his wrists.
The expressions on the faces of the others gradually turned serious.
The appearance of these individuals from the Green Sail Vine Military Academy clearly put a lot of pressure on them.
