No one had expected that this match would have such a twist.
Almost in an instant, the two main forces of the 233 team were taken down.
Watching from the sky as they fell out of the ring, and the partially giant-sized and paralyzed Tuantuan trapped in the ring.
From the commentators to the audience, everyone thought 233 was finished!
This made the organizers of the Quan City event, who had been watching the battle, frown, cursing 233 as useless. They had given them such a fix, but they still lost.
At the same time, they were pondering what excuse to use to arrange a revival match for Lu Wu and his team.
On the spectators' side.
The three students from Ye Qingxue's advanced class wore mocking and amused smiles.
"I told you there was no need to come and watch, these three guys are a joke.
What fate battle, what comeback, they can't even beat a small team like 023. It looks like their journey in the Quan City Cup is about to end here."
"Whether it ends here is not certain, some people might still use them to stir up some buzz. But it doesn't matter, we've seen their level, which is just average in our class. Not to mention facing those few, we can easily crush them."
Watching 233 being crushed gave the trio immense satisfaction.
On the other side, at the ring, having dealt with two major troubles, a relieved smile finally appeared on Li Yi's face.
Looking at the only remaining Little Skeleton on the stage, and at Lu Wu, whose face looked a bit unsightly, Li Yi said playfully, "Captain Lu, do you think there's any need to continue fighting?"
Lu Wu tried hard to calm his anger, to keep a straight face.
"Why not?"
"Because surrendering would be much more dignified than being beaten down, don't you think?"
"I don't think so, and I don't think I need to surrender!"
"Ah, you won't listen to good advice. Fine, if you want to fight, let's fight. It won't take much effort anyway!"
Three against one, and it's just a Little Skeleton. How much effort could it take?
At this moment, the commentator on the stage saw that Lu Wu seemed unwilling to give up and was preparing to fight, quickly doing his job.
"This match has truly been unexpected.
The 023 team actually kept this in reserve. Relying on something they had never revealed in previous matches, they countered the 233 team's pig-bird strategy and took down the two main players in one move.
Now, on the 233 side, the only one left in good condition is the captain's Little Skeleton.
Although the other side's three Summoned Beasts have consumed considerable energy after a burst attack, they are still in good condition. A 1V3 battle is almost an impossible victory!"
"But despite this, Lu Wu still chose to fight to the end!
This is his dignity as a captain, as a Quan City Cup contestant.
This is the belief in never giving up until the last moment!"
"Look, Little Skeleton is going in, wielding a baseball bat and charging towards the opponent.
This little fellow and its master have an indomitable spirit, a courage to face strong opponents.
Such a spirit is precious, even if they lose the match; they are worthy of respect for having such determination!
Let's see what brilliant moves they have left."
The commentator was speaking very nicely.
But it was clear that he was almost saying that Lu Wu's team was definitely going to lose.
As Little Skeleton charged towards the Paralysis Moth, the commentator's excitement reached its peak.
"Little Skeleton reached the Paralysis Moth, swung its baseball bat, the Paralysis Moth dodged successfully, and shot out a Paralysis Needle. The nearby Swamp Monster used Mud Ball again, and the Slime attacked with Ice Arrow.
Little Skeleton is surrounded, a dead end!
Little Skeleton has no way out, the match tragically en—oh shit…"
As a professional commentator, cursing during commentary was not typical unless truly shocked.
Like now.
In the ring, the 023 team launched a three-sided attack on Little Skeleton.
Everyone thought Little Skeleton was certain to lose, but Little Skeleton twisted its skeleton at an incredible angle to dodge the Mud Ball. It raised its bone hand and shattered the Ice Needle, and didn't even bother with the Paralysis Needle, letting it hit the skeletal frame.
However, the Paralysis Needle's main effect was on paralysis, effective on living creatures but useless against Undead like Little Skeleton.
"Now, get the Paralysis Moth down!"
At Lu Wu's command, Little Skeleton swiftly turned and knocked down the Paralysis Moth with a single blow.
Just after taking down the Paralysis Moth, Lu Wu issued another order.
"Charge, Heavy Slash, and knock out that immobilized Slime for me!"
Little Skeleton instantly burst forward, charging towards the Slime, which was in a frozen state due to its recent use of [Self Ice Seal], and swept the Slime out with a single bat swing.
In a flash, 023 was cleared of two beasts, and Little Skeleton reached the edge of the ring.
Li Yi promptly gave an order.
"Swamp Monster, seize the chance, use Mud Ball to push Little Skeleton off."
At this moment, Little Skeleton had exhausted its old strength and had not yet generated new strength. If attacked, it would surely be unable to dodge.
However, Lu Wu wasn't panicked at all, clearly having a trump card.
Before the Swamp Monster could attack, an Earth Thorn impaled it, followed by a furious giant figure charging forward, sending the Swamp Monster flying out.
This was the recovered Tuantuan, free from paralysis after defeating the Paralysis Moth, delivering the final blow.
As the Swamp Monster was sent flying, the entire arena fell into a deathly silence.
No one had expected that, facing such a dire situation, 233 could still make a comeback from such headwinds.
After a while, the commentator finally reacted, starting to clap excitedly.
"What an extremely splendid match, congratulations to the 233 team for achieving the final victory in this match!"
Following the commentator's lead, thunderous applause and cheers erupted.
"233 is awesome!"
"Lu Wu is awesome!"
"Little Skeleton is awesome!"
At this moment, the applause of victory belonged to the 233 team, belonged to Lu Wu.
This arena had even been renamed to 233 Arena.
The Quan City Cup organizers, who had been following the match, were thrilled too, having prepared to arrange a revival match for the 233 team. They hadn't expected Lu Wu and his team to shockingly win the match.
This thrilling match was perfect for promotion. The organizers quickly arranged for someone to interview Lu Wu and his team, aiming to take advantage of this opportunity and build up the hype.
But when the organizers went to interview, they couldn't find Lu Wu and Dudu. When the interviewers arrived, Li Kai happened to call, and Lu Wu went to answer with Dudu following him, leaving only Hao Zhijian on-site.
He had been fretting over finding an opportunity to clean up his image, seizing the chance, he made the entire interview into his own performance.
