[This year's support class students are terrifying; they're much better than we were back then.]
[Only Yu Wanyao is left on the attacking side, and I have a feeling she won't last much longer.]
[It's almost here! The winner will be revealed soon! All those late nights watching the live stream were worth it!]
The number of players eliminated from the defending side has increased to eight.
When Xu Jintang arrived at the front city, the broadcast sounded again.
She glanced around.
Several battlegrounds were ablaze with flames, as various supernatural abilities clashed and burned so intensely that the ice on the ground was almost melting away.
"Squad leader, the rest is up to you!" Xue Zhongqi's voice suddenly came.
Xu Jintang turned his head to look.
Not far away, Xue Zhongqi was seen running rapidly towards the power fluctuations of the battle circle, as if he were about to commit suicide.
Yu Wanyao, chasing after him, screamed frantically, " Xue Zhongqi! I'll kill you!!"
The next second, Xue Zhongqi jumped into the vortex of supernatural abilities where the two were fighting. Without any defense, he was instantly "strangled" by the energy fluctuations, and his figure slowly disappeared from sight.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Wanyao, who was linked to him by the Starlight Chain, was also eliminated.
Xu Jintang was stunned for two seconds.
Xue Zhongqi's Life Sharing ability is truly a case of hurting the enemy a thousand, but also losing eight hundred of his own.
However, the Yu Wanyao was taken away with him in his "suicide" is also good news.
[This is too much! Even though the simulated battlefield is just feigning death, the pain is still realistically replicated. How painful would it be to be strangled by an energy fluctuation?]
[Holy crap! I just bet on the melee and ranged attack squads to win, and both squad leaders got eliminated! Am I going to lose money?]
[That concludes the betting match between the support team. Welcome back next time!]
[Hey sis, can I add another bet? I want to bet on the support team to win.]
After seeing Yu Wanyao and Mu Guang eliminated, everyone could sense that the situation was about to change, so they hurriedly went to the bookmaker to ask for more bets.
Within a simulated battlefield.
Xu Jintang, standing on the stone piers of the city gate tower, cracked his knuckles and surveyed the surrounding battleground. " Mu Guang Yu Wanyao have been eliminated. Listen up, everyone in the city defense team! From now on, we're no longer defending the city; we're launching a counterattack!"
The sound spread in all directions.
The support team members were stunned for a moment, then burst into ecstasy.
"The squad leaders of both the close-combat and ranged attack squads have been eliminated! We might actually be going to win!"
"We have to hold this game no matter what!"
From the moment the challenge was signed, the support team members never dared to dream that they could win.
They gradually gained the upper hand, and now they are only one step away from winning the game.
The remaining twenty-odd support players instantly became incredibly energetic, shouting, "Counterattack!!"
The siege team members looked completely bewildered.
Both of their class monitors were eliminated?!
Without a leader, the attacking force began to retreat in defeat.
Some support team members launched attacks with all their might, even resorting to suicidal attacks in order to eliminate their opponents.
Xu Jintang jumped off the city gate tower.
The Domain Slow instantly enveloped the entire area, and the siege team members around her were all hit by the superpower.
Other support team members quickly moved in to finish off the attackers.
Hiding in the back, Yan Yuting quickly chanted an incantation and tossed the still-warm Toast Pineapple Bun to her teammate, "My bread is the best, my bread is the best..."
The number of eliminated members of the siege team has increased to sixty-three.
The number of players eliminated from the city defense team has increased to twenty-four.
Xu Jintang took a slice of toast, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it, then quickly rushed into the battle.
A flash of white light, and the already sluggish siege team members instantly slowed down.
Xu Jintang dodged and circled behind them, raising his hand to grab the two men by the neck.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Shuxue's two hidden darts attacked from the side, shattering the jade pendants of the two people.
Xu Jintang turned around and exchanged a glance with Qin Shuxue before rushing off to the next battle.
More and more people are falling ill.
A few minutes later, only the last two members of the siege team remained on the battlefield.
Xu Jintang walked towards the two, holding two Attack Inscription his hand.
The two stood back to back, looking panicked at Xu Jintang who was glaring at them as he approached. "We... we eliminated ourselves."
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them consciously crushed the jade tokens and disappeared from sight.
Yan Yuting, who had been keeping watch at the rear supplying the team, stood up, raised her hand high, threw away the toast in her hand, and her eyes shone with excitement, "We won!"
Qin Shuxue and Cao Xing'an, who were still alive, exchanged a glance, both of them somewhat excited.
Qin Shuxue muttered incredulously, "They actually won."
Xu Jintang withdrew the inscription from his palm, looked up at the horizon, and waited for the results to be announced.
Two seconds later, the electronic announcement sounded:
"Friendly reminder: No one from the attacking side has survived. This siege mission has failed, and the defending side has won."
Chapter 47
The live stream chat erupted in excitement upon hearing the announcement!
Holy crap! The defending team won!! They even won by turning the tide of the attack!
[Wow, that went by fast! I thought it would be the seventh day, and it's already over halfway through. This support class is really strong though.]
[Hahaha, the support team won! I'm going to be rich overnight! Before, when the odds were 1 to 10, I bet everything on the support team and they won!]
The students who had been eliminated early stood in a row outside the simulation pod, silently staring at each other.
Yu Wanyao glared angrily at Xue Zhongqi, probably still angry that he had dragged her into this mess.
Wei Zixuan, who was the first to be eliminated, was already numb.
He leaned against the outside of the simulator, his face blank.
Xue Zhongqi, on the other hand, was quite at ease. He was fanning himself with a folding fan, a beaming smile on his face, and seemed to be in a very good mood.
A few seconds later, Xu Jintang and the others were automatically ejected from the simulator.
As soon as his consciousness returned to its source, Xu Jintang was met with resentful gazes from all around him.
She coughed lightly, casually jumped out of the simulator, and waved to everyone. "Hi."
The only response she received Yu Wanyao's resentful gaze.
Mu Guang subconsciously rubbed his waist. "It's finally over. Everyone, go home and recover from your injuries."
Emerging from a simulated battlefield, there are no real injuries, at most only emotional wounds.
Before long, the students from the melee and ranged attack classes left to recover from their injuries.
Only the support team members remained.
A hint of excitement flickered in everyone's eyes as they surrounded Xu Jintang and Xue Zhongqi.
"Squad leader, vice squad leader, you really led everyone to victory!"
"I initially thought we would suffer a crushing defeat in this challenge, but it turned out to be completely different."
"I never imagined that I, a support player, would have such a glorious day. All thanks to the class monitor and the vice-monitor."
As everyone was chattering and expressing their feelings, the loudspeaker in the simulated combat room suddenly blared. " Xu Jintang, Xue Zhongqi, come to my office."
It's Zhuang Silin's voice.
It turns out the military academy instructors weren't sleeping either; they were all staying up late watching the live stream of the three classes' challenge match.
The surrounding students immediately stopped talking, their expressions revealing a hint of tension.
Xu Jintang and Xue Zhongqi exchanged a glance and nodded.
Xu Jintang stepped forward. "Everyone can go back and rest now. We're going to see the director."
It was already late at night inside the Leikdasi Military Academy.
The moonlight appeared even brighter and more beautiful against the backdrop of the darkness.
Xu Jintang and Xue Zhongqi walked into the grade director's office one after the other.
Zhuang Silin sat on the sofa in the reception area, holding a cup of energizing tea. She gestured for the two to sit down and said with a smile, "It was worth drinking so much energizing tea and staying up all night to watch your live stream. You two really gave me a pleasant surprise."
After sitting down, Xu Jintang cleared his throat. "Why did the teacher want to see us?"
Zhuang Silin's meaningful gaze fell on her. "I mainly wanted to talk about your ability, which seems to be evolving."
"Perhaps there's some kind of evolution involved?" Xue Zhongqi looked over in surprise, then suddenly understood. "No wonder your combat power is so monstrous; it turns out it's some kind of supernatural evolution."
Xu Jintang's gaze turned serious. "Teacher, I'm almost certain that once I reach the Second Tier, my ability will basically evolve towards the ice attribute."
"Yes, we teachers have discussed this matter as well." Zhuang Silin took a sip of her refreshing tea, then placed it on the table beside her, and looked up at Xu Jintang. "Your ability evolution is indeed a done deal. Therefore, we've discussed it and are considering transferring you to a different class."
"Transfer to another class..." Xu Jintang murmured to himself, "Does it mean transferring me to the melee combat class or the ranged attack class?"
Xue Zhongqi quickly interrupted, "Teacher, so you're here to steal students from our support class?"
Zhuang Silin smiled and turned to Xue Zhongqi, "We asked you to come along because we're planning to transfer you to another class."
Xue Zhongqi: "?"
He paused for a few seconds, "My superpowers seem to have evolved as well?"
"No, it's because we're planning to set up a special experimental class this year." Zhuang Silin looked at Xu Jintang and continued, " Song Tianqi and Jiang Shiyi will be finishing their special training and returning to school in a few days. They will be assigned to this experimental class with you. I'll explain the details to you after everyone arrives."
Xu Jintang hesitated for a moment, "Is there only the four of us in this experimental class right now?"
Zhuang Silin nodded, "There's still one spot left, and we haven't decided who to give it to yet. But in the end, there will be five people in the experimental class. This matter is currently confidential, so please don't tell anyone."
Xu Jintang and Xue Zhongqi exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously, "Understood."
After leaving the office, Xu Jintang and Xue Zhongqi walked side by side toward the dormitory building.
"Why do you think Teacher Zhuang set up this experimental class? And why are there only five students in the class?" Xue Zhongqi muttered in puzzlement.
