Seeing that he was up next, Lin Zhen took a couple of deep breaths.
He was somewhat unlucky, having been assigned to the fourth group. Qiong Jing's position was unshakeable, and the three individuals from the Endless Species were undoubtedly aiming for him.
Lin Zhen could imagine their strategy: ensure Yama advances, have the Red Widow compete for the fifth or sixth position, and use the element controller as cannon fodder to exhaust him.
If Lin Zhen wanted to advance, he needed to compete for at least the fifth or sixth position, which meant he had to defeat the Red Widow no matter what.
If he couldn't defeat her, the possibility of competing with Augustine would essentially turn to smoke.
The battle began, and Lin Zhen took the stage.
As per tradition, the person with the lower ranking would take the stage first, and the higher-ranked contestant would enter later. This was a sign of respect for the higher-ranked participants.
