Chapter 85: Didn’t Think Of That, Did You?
In contrast, the few spectators supporting the visiting team felt like a small dinghy in a stormy ocean, seemingly on the verge of capsizing at any moment. In the visiting team\'s preparation area, Fang Buyi and the others wore heavy, dejected expressions. It wasn\'t that they lacked effort. The gap in strength between the teams was simply too great.
Zheng Shou and Guan Guan were both at the tenth stage. Feng Yuzhen and Jia Yiyu were slightly weaker but still at the ninth stage. Even Longteng High School\'s weakest beastmaster substitute, Liu Ye, and medic substitute, Chang Tao, were at the eighth stage.
Moreover, they had all mastered new martial arts techniques and had Inscribed Treasure Bones from star beasts implanted in them. This was a real gap in strength. It wasn\'t something that could be bridged by sheer willpower.
Now, all hopes were pinned on Li Xiaofei. As the main player of the school team, he would participate in the final match. The team members silently watched him, saying nothing. But their eyes were filled with hope. He turned and walked toward the arena without a word.
"Oh oh oh, Red Flag High School\'s ace is entering the arena."
"The Fist King Li Xiaofei, the MVP of the first round of the league, can he win a round for Red Flag High School?"
"Longteng High School has sent out their second main player, Xing Yuantao."
"Xing Yuantao, eighteen years old, 1.84 meters tall, weighing 75 kilograms, with peak ninth stage cultivation. Last season, he ranked thirty-fourth in the individual mode, which is quite impressive, even surpassing Qingye High School\'s star player Swift Blade Gao Shen."
"The match has begun."
Commentators from all sides got to work. The match was the highlight of today\'s solo mode. So the commentators were very excited. But the most excited of them all was Little White Dragon in the Waves Shen Yan.
"Li Xiaofei is finally on the field," he exclaimed, clenching his fist. "He will definitely win, definitely."
The chat was going wild in the livestream, which now had over seventy thousand viewers. The betting segment of the live stream had already concluded. 73 percent believed that Xing Yuantao would win. Only 27 percent thought that Li Xiaofei would come out on top.
The livestream quickly showed the battlefield. The system had randomly chosen the map again, and it was the Ancient Roman Colosseum. The same map as the first match. Two beams of light descended from the sky. Li Xiaofei and Xing Yuantao\'s figures appeared on the battlefield.
"Didn\'t expect this, did you?" Xing Yuantao licked his lips excitedly. "Li Xiaofei, we meet again so soon."
Li Xiaofei responded dryly, "Are you an idiot? You were the one who said this round of the league would be between our two high schools. What’s so unexpected about this? Could you use your brain a bit when you\'re delivering your lines?"
Xing Yuantao\'s expression stiffened. Then his eyes turned violent. Tall and slender with a handsome yet world-weary look, he was the type that girls found very attractive.
"I said I would tear you apart with my own hands," Xing Yuantao growled, gritting his teeth. "You\'ll pay dearly for your actions that day."
Li Xiaofei sneered and gestured, saying, "One move."
"One move?" Xing Yuantao laughed loudly. "Haha, are you trying to imitate Senior Zheng Shou? Do you think this posturing can save face for Red Flag High School? Unfortunately, you could never imagine..."
At that point, Xing Yuantao suddenly released his starforce qi. Dense, azure starforce vortices appeared around him. One, two, three, four, five... Eight, nine, ten! Ten! A total of ten starforce vortices. He was at the tenth stage.
The scene caused the entire stadium to erupt in thunderous cheers. Countless home team supporters in the stands shouted frantically. Originally, they were slightly worried that Xing Yuantao might not be a match for the Fist King Li Xiaofei. But now, that sliver of concern was completely gone.
"My God, it\'s the tenth stage. Xing Yuantao has actually advanced to the tenth stage."
"Incredible."
"The event committee previously reported his level as ninth stage. He must have recently broken through."
"Longteng High School has gained another tenth stage member."
"This is the strength of prestigious schools."
"Red Flag High School\'s last hope is shattered."
In the media section, the commentators burst into exclamations. In the visitor\'s preparation area, Fang Buyi, Bai Longfei, and the others were stunned.
How could this be? Another tenth stage opponent?
They had held onto a sliver of hope. But now it seemed like everything was over. No matter how strong Li Xiaofei was, he couldn\'t bridge this absolute realm difference. All the school team members\' hearts sank.
The same sense of loss, frustration, and powerless despair they had experienced in previous league seasons washed over them again. Except for Yan Chiyu. She stood quietly, her expression very calm. The four consecutive losses were within her expectations.
From the beginning, Yan Chiyu had a clear understanding of Red Flag High School\'s overall strength. Losing the individual matches was inevitable. However, for some reason, despite her antagonism towards Li Xiaofei, she still had complete confidence in this boy.
He can win.
"Come on." She shouted loudly.
The other team members looked at their captain in surprise.
Yan Chiyu continued to shout, "Come on, come on, come on!"
She stood there, shouting loudly amidst the overwhelming cheers of the home team\'s supporters. Even though her cheers were completely drowned out by the almost ceiling-shaking roar of the crowd and could not be heard far. Even though Li Xiaofei, immersed in the light core virtual world, couldn\'t hear her voice. She still shouted loudly. She was stubborn and persistent.
Fang Buyi seemed to understand the captain\'s intention.
Yes. If even his teammates stopped supporting Li Xiaofei and began to doubt him, who else would support him?
At that critical time, Li Xiaofei was representing Red Flag High School, their entire school team, in facing a formidable opponent. At that moment, they should cheer him on, not doubt him. Otherwise, when the battle was over, whether in victory or defeat, Li Xiaofei would not see his teammates’ support when he reviewed the match video. How disappointed would that be?
Fang Buyi joined in the chant, "Come on, Li Xiaofei!"
One by one, the other team members followed, "Come on, Li Xiaofei!"
The entire Red Flag High School team were united in their cheers, their voices filled with determination and support for their teammate.
"Come on!" Fang Buyi also shouted loudly.
Bai Longfei felt his stagnant blood boiling again. Disregarding his image, he twisted his face in a furious roar, "Come on, come on, come on..."
"C-c-c... Come on!" Bai Qiqi stuttered angrily.
"Come on!"
"Come on!"
Ren Dong, Liu Xiao, Du Heng, Zhuge Long, Nan Tianxing also chanted. The school team members shouted at the top of their lungs, tearing their throats in the process. The scene reached the eyes of the visiting team\'s students in the stands.
They had been trembling under the pressure of the home team\'s supporters, but they suddenly felt inspired. They were no longer afraid.
"Come on!"
"Come on!"
They howled like a pack of enraged wolves.
