Chapter 437
The first day of the round of 32 was undoubtedly the day for black horses . Having won their first round convincingly, Giant God Peak had shown an even more domineering performance in the next round . Sweeping their powerful A ranked opponents in an inconceivable 4:0 manner, they had displayed a strength on par with S ranked squadrons . Not only that, the balance in strength throughout their various positions, talent, as well as coordination levels during group battles, had all been given extremely high evaluations .
Nevertheless, despite all of these, all of the radiance had been pulled away by a squadron from Tianjing .
Most importantly, the incomparably domineering stance of that squadron's captain had already taken over the minds of countless people and left an unforgettable impression .
Compared to Wang Zhong, Dicaprio's usage of the cross wheels was indeed somewhat trifling . Wang Zhong's cross wheels were the genuinely frightening Laforgue Infinite Slash Cross wheels, making him a ranged soldier that was more than sufficient to cause any close-ranged soldier to shiver in fear .
This was especially so, as this person was also a frightening close combat fighter!
He was an existence that was sufficient to cause a headache to any squadron who had to face him .
Upon combining with his nickname, All Mouthy King, he had instantly blown away the spotlight from anyone else, with all the S rank squadrons being suppressed by his presence . Naturally, there was no lack of criticism being aimed at him . From this point forwards, Tianjing could no longer act as a pig to eat a tiger . Now, all of their weaknesses would constantly get targeted by all their upcoming opponents, all while facing the immense pressure coming from both within the competition and the external audience .
It was inevitable for S ranked squadrons to be defeated . However, it would also lead to even greater challenges up the hill . The inherent system definitely wouldn't collapse that easily . With Stuart at the helm, the great aristocratic families would definitely dissect and analyse each and every component of the Tianjing squadron .
Both Wang Zhong and Dicaprio gave ambiguous replies during their interviews, with none of them either confirming or denying that claim . Nonetheless, there was already no need to continue pursuing the answer, as 9 out of 9 people already believed Wang Zhong to be All Mouthy King .
Just a casual look at the fights All Mouthy King had won in the OP would allow one to see an assassin's agility, a soldier's powerful close-range abilities and the omnipotent cross wheels he had displayed . With such all-roundedness, who else could All Mouthy King be?
A hopeless trash squadron had just defeated an S ranked seedling squadron . Other than All Mouthy King, who else could it be?
That's right, who else could it be?!
Even though the round of 64 had come to an end, the fireworks continued through the night . Walking around, one could hear voices discussing the CHF, in the hotels, Skylink and even on the streets and alleys . This was a show of strength for the commoner citizens of the Federation . Although they might not possess the ability to evaluate the competitors' strength, they were able to enjoy the liveliness of the event .
Many discussions and debates were going on, especially those on the topic of the Tianjing squadron!
On the Skylink CHF discussion forums, one would be able to see an entire stretch of questions related to the Tianjing squadron!
"What kind of academy is Tianjing?"
"How did the Tianjing squadron fight their way into the best of 128?"
"Is their mysterious captain Wang Zhong really not an aristocratic family member?"
There were many questions sprouting out, with the thoughts of many still being stuck on the match between Tianjing and Bella Dean . There those that were still in ignorance, with some still in disbelief, that an obscure Tianjing Academy could actually eliminate a powerful S rank seedling squadron from the CHF . That's Bella Dean we're talking about! One of the 5 upper families amongst the 10 great families of the Federation!
"I have a feeling as though God has fallen . I don't know if you guys feel the same . "
"More than that . I feel as though I'm a little kid who had shot an arrow into the sky, only for it to strike a valiant eagle soaring across the nine heavens . "
"That's an apt description . I too have the feeling as though the arrow had struck an aeroplane down!"
"Oi upstairs, please consider the feelings of the eagle and aeroplane, okay!"
There were quite a lot of people who were shocked by the results of that match . Having entered this world in the lands that neighboured Bella Dean City, they had grown up under the mighty umbrella of Bella Dean . During that course, they were protected, and were also exploited by the latter . Therefore, they had the greatest feelings and right of speech towards how strong Bella Dean was . Although the Bella Dean squadron participating in this CHF didn't receive a high evaluation, with some saying that they were fallen rulers, the people living under the shadow of Bella Dean were all clear about one matter, or in other words, the truth!
When Bella Dean was underestimated, "it" would be at its most lethal and terrifying!
As for this CHF, Bella Dean had fielded their most terrifying lineup, a lineup that was meant to be a counterattack to the world!
Therefore, when the most terrifying lineup of Bella Dean had fallen, one could imagine the amount of shock surging through the minds of those citizens . Unaware of what's happening, they started posting questions on the Skylink discussion forums and flipping through all the past recordings, while still being unable to believe the results, which had already turned into reality .
A terrifying fellow and his omnipotent cross wheels .
On the other side, Tianjing Academy, no, the entire Tianjing City, had turned wild with celebration . At this moment, a few of the big families in control of Tianjing City had gathered together and issued a citywide announcement . "Tonight's the night to celebrate and drink in merry! All of the expenses from the nightclubs and entertainment establishments will be covered by us few families, for a free-of-charge celebration for the entire city!"
In a brightly lit high rise apartment, Hymin's parents were currently entertaining their friends and relatives in a merry mood .
Envy and jealousy were present in all of the gazes shooting towards Hymin's parents . With such a daughter, there was truly nothing else that one needed to hope for . What's more, it's definite that Hymin's future would be filled with a stretch of brightness, filled with unlimited prospects . It has already been a long time since Tianjing City had seen such splendour . Heroic daughters and sons, and these heroes' parents!
Everyone was roused and inspired by such thoughts, though it was a pity that the heroes were their own children .
Under the current system employed by the Federation, families were always tied together and were categorized into different classes of citizenship . Once one's son or daughter manages to perform or make outstanding contributions, it would increase the citizen rankings of one's entire family . This wasn't only for the sake of face, but also due to the increase in survival benefits .
By the side, a large screen was showing videos posted on the Skylink, and was currently broadcasting a replay of Tianjing squadron's highlights . Among them, there were quite a few scenes with Hymin performing treatment for her squadron members . Naturally, the most important part was her super powerful auxiliary support during the crucial moment in the group battle . As everyone had said, without the protection and tracking granted by her special ability, Tianjing might have fallen short from victory . Although Wang Zhong was very strong, he wasn't a god .
Just at this moment, as the time reached 8 pm, someone shouted out . "It's here! It's here! Right on time! The TOP 10 highlights for the first day of the final competition are out . "
The entire apartment instantly turned quiet, as anxious expressions appeared on everyone's faces . A black screen appeared on the screen linked to the Skylink broadcast, before being broken by a flash . In the next second, glowing words appeared, "TOP 10---"
Starting from 10th place, scene after scene of spectacular combat drew cries of astonishment from everyone watching, though it also caused the apartment's atmosphere to turn into one of slight apprehension . Nonetheless, all of them were sure that the Tianjing squadron would definitely be present in this TOP 10 highlights .
. . .
"In 5th place, Tianjing Academy, Grai, the most handsome trump card, My Grai!"
Bang! In a flash, the entire apartment was filled with applause, with some female academy students even shrieking out in excitement . Though it was somewhat impolite, no one here would shame them for their manners, as everyone was in fact having the same feelings .
On the screen, Grai really was extremely handsome!
He had an invincible appearance, invincible strength, and had with his courteous demeanour . Additionally, he possessed a completely different fighting style compared to Tianjing's captain, one that was always pleasing to people's eyes .
It was obvious that Grai would enter the TOP10 highlights . He had pulled a reversal over one of the 5 great ranged soldiers, Gaden, who was a genuine trump card for Bella Dean . Furthermore, he was handsome, truly handsome, had a handsome character, and a handsome personality . Even males had no choice but to admit that he was truly a lady killer .
The TOP10 highlights continued playing . In 4th place . . . the captain of the Asuna Ocean God squadron . During their group battle, her "Ocean's Immeasurability" that crushed her opponents showcased her terrifying offensive type water attribute special ability . In reality, with the final competition reaching its best of 32 round, there were already no more newbies left standing . Even S ranked squadrons would have to reveal a bit of their real ability, a clear indication of the success of the equilibrium strategy the Federation had employed for the past 20 years . After all, other than the aristocratic families, there were vast numbers of citizens living in its 100 cities . Therefore, it was inevitable for some geniuses to appear within this class of citizens .
In 3rd place, Barbarian squadron's captain Demarco . Being a soldier, he showcased his undying body during their group battle, enduring all of the attacks unleashed by his opponent, before securing victory for his squadron with a single move .
Although humans possessed an addition power known as Soul Power, their bodies were still formed from flesh, bones and blood . The so-called "undying" or "invincible" were just exaggerated descriptions . However, Demarco seemed to truly possess such a mystical special ability . Although they weren't as much of a dark horse as Tianjing, they had displayed their powerful strength in their matches . What's more, they were also hailed as the squadron with a style closest to that of the empires .
The 2nd place belonged to the Blazing Angel squadron's Oli . This squadron seemed to be the first powerful squadron that had taken notice of Tianjing . What's more, the entire squadron had turned up to watch Tianjing's match which was scheduled right before theirs . This move had significantly stimulated their opponents . However, once the match had entered the group battle phase, the powerful Mo's List heavy soldier used her impregnable defence and savage control-oriented attacks to single-handedly dominate her opponents . Radiating with brilliance like a goddess of war, she became the representation of despair in her opponent's hearts .
Finally, the 1st place that everyone was waiting for! At the same time, it was what everyone had hoped for, a mysterious male!
The video flashed, showing a black screen, before the words "1st place" scrolled out .
"In first place!"
"Tianjing Academy, the initial reveal of the king!"
Humm . . claps thundered out .
The temperature of the apartment appeared to have risen by a few degrees, as everyone started to cheer and celebrate . At this moment, Hymin's parents were hugging each other as a wondrous feeling surged within them . Although their daughter wasn't being shown in the TOP10, both of them knew that the greater the fame and reputation of the Tianjing squadron, the more brilliant and promising Hymin's future would be .
While this was happening, the chat feed for the Skylink live broadcast had instantly exploded, with over 10 thousand people posting every second . What's more, the viewership numbers were still continuing to skyrocket in an exaggerated fashion, and the explosive influx nearly bottlenecked the server nodes for the Skylink .
Without a doubt, the 1st place, Wang Zhong, was the focus of everyone's attention . The official evaluation of him was still very subdued . Nonetheless, his squadron already had no need for further exaggeration to gain the attention of the masses, with the official evaluation of Tianjing squadron being very objective and impartial .
However, All Mouthy King supporters were somewhat dissatisfied, as though they had yet to get their fix, and feeling as though something was lacking .
The CHF was such a grand competition, and was famed for being universally astonishing, yet what this fuck was with this evaluation?
"He's definitely All Mouthy King, yet the officials actually don't dare to confirm this fact!"
