"It's happening!!"
As the Dragon Kingdom team, led by Ling Zhan, appeared in the preparation area, they immediately drew the attention of the entire audience.
It's worth noting...
Before this, the vast majority of the audience looked at Ling Zhan with admiration, praise, respect, and enthusiasm, all positive sentiments.
However, at this moment, their gazes turned into confusion, puzzlement, regret, and even mocking disdain.
Clearly, after Ling Zhan's provocative actions towards the Corrupt Witch yesterday, many people felt that he had probably been blinded by his consecutive victories, becoming excessively arrogant and self-important.
Some even believed that this jobless non-specialist's personality was starting to resemble Norton's.
"These people..."
"They're really a bunch of fair-weather supporters!"
The Dragon Kingdom teammates naturally sensed the change in the audience's gaze.
They couldn't help but complain one after another.
"Dragon Kingdom and Holy Light Empire teams, please prepare yourselves!"
"In three minutes, it's time to take the stage!"
At this time, the official announcer was also making the pre-match announcements.
"Hmm? Take a closer look at the Holy Light Empire's team members!"
All the spectators turned their heads to look at the position of the Holy Light Empire's team.
They were surprised to find that all the team members were now wearing pure white battle armor!
"This..."
All the spectators were stunned.
What is this?
Some well-informed spectators began to explain with a sense of superiority:
"Heh! You all don't know, do you? This white armor is the Holy Light Empire's meticulously crafted trump card!"
"It's called the 'Holy Spirit Battle Armor'!"
"Don't underestimate this armor; it was developed by dozens of divine-level enchanters, divine-level blacksmiths, and several level-100 four-turn Mechanical Spirit Lords and Spell Gods!"
"It's said that even the Corrupt Witch, Cathy, participated in the research!"
"This armor is comparable to a top-grade spiritual artifact, not only greatly enhancing the wearer's combat power but also having an extremely perfect defense and life-saving mechanism..."
"What's more important is that when a certain number of Holy Spirit Battle Armors are within a certain range, they trigger a corresponding set effect!"
"The current information says that the Holy Spirit Empire only produced a hundred of these armors."
"I didn't expect them to bring out nearly fifty of them today as a trump card against the Dragon Kingdom team!"
Hiss!!
Listening to this sensational explanation, many spectators couldn't help but gasp in astonishment!
Wow!
The Holy Light Empire really went all out to win this bet!
And...
It also showed the audience just how determined the Holy Light Empire was to form an alliance with the Corrupt Witch.
After all...
Although both nations signed the agreement for this bet, if you think about it carefully, you'll realize that the Corrupt Witch is playing a role where she only gains benefits without bearing any risks.
If the Dragon Kingdom wins, they will take the benefits from the Holy Light Empire.
If the Dragon Kingdom loses, they have to agree to one of the Corrupt Witch's conditions.
No matter who wins or loses, the Corrupt Witch doesn't have to bear any risk, and the Holy Light Empire gains nothing from the Dragon Kingdom.
Yet, even so...
The Holy Light Empire's king still chose to agree and placed this bet for the Corrupt Witch.
It seems the Holy Light Empire truly values this Corrupt Witch.
"To deal with the Dragon Kingdom, they even brought out the Holy Spirit Battle Armor..."
In the top-tier VIP seats, many ministers of the Holy Light Empire were also a bit dumbfounded.
They hadn't received any news of this.
The secrecy was well-maintained!
"Besides this Holy Spirit Battle Armor, there's also the trump card that the Corrupt Witch left for the two princesses!"
"Oh? It seems that the Dragon Kingdom team is destined to lose..."
"Destined to lose? There's no good outcome when opposing the Corrupt Witch!"
"Unless..."
"Unless what?"
"Unless the Dragon Kingdom also asks the Myriad Law Immortal Lord to assist them; then the Dragon Kingdom team might be able to tie with the Holy Light Empire!"
"..."
Principal Liu Huanran and Dean Zhou Hongfu sat in their seats, listening to the voices around them and sensing the mocking gazes directed at them, all while keeping expressionless faces.
But deep down, they were somewhat anxious.
Meanwhile, the instigator, the Corrupt Witch Cathy, was leaning on the railing, smiling as she watched the scene below.
She didn't seem to notice...
Just how enchanting and seductive her international supermodel-like figure was in this posture, but no one dared to direct their gaze at this witch.
What a joke!
If you want to die, feel free to stare!
...
"Time's up! All team members from both sides, please take the stage!"
"Then enter the battlefield plains!"
The referee solemnly announced at this moment.
This quarter-final match would determine the true championship team!!
Even the other top-eight teams were holding their breath, filled with tension and anticipation as they watched the scene unfold!
As for the championship title...
They had already given up any hope of winning it.
In fact, during the recent days of downtime, they hadn't even conducted their usual team training sessions.
Because they knew that no matter how much they trained, they wouldn't be able to defeat these two teams.
So they might as well seriously watch this "final."
It was the familiar vast plain battlefield.
The distance between the two teams was 500 meters.
This distance...
Was perfectly measured.
It allowed both teams ample time to make decisions and respond to attacks.
And if you wanted to reach the enemy's front lines in an instant, you'd have to use at least an S- level movement skill.
At this moment.
Ling Zhan and Princess Saint Lunie stood facing each other from afar.
With his Eye of Ten Thousand Demons, he could even see the fine hairs on Princess Saint Lunie's delicate ears.
Princess Saint Lunie and Princess Saint Lucy's Holy Spirit Armors were completely different from the other team members' armors.
To accommodate Princess Saint Lunie's light and dark dual-bloodline, this unique half-black, half-white battle armor was specifically crafted.
And to ensure that Princess Saint Lucy's sword demon bloodline wouldn't be suppressed but rather stimulated, an all-black battle armor made from the scales of a giant demon beast was created just for her.
Additionally...
Princess Saint Lunie had undergone significant changes in her features compared to before.
For example, the pair of black-and-white wings that had grown from her back had now become two pairs.
Giving the impression...
Of a four-winged fallen angel!
Both holy and evil!
Even her beautiful eyes had black-and-white dual-colored pupils!
Indeed!
Just like Norton, Princess Saint Lunie had also used some special secret method during this time to further awaken the power of the divine light and dark bloodline within her!
