Chapter 399: Frightened into Peeing their Pants
Translator: Abyssruler Editor: Lucas
"For real? Is it that Wang Zheng again?"
"No, Wang Zheng hasn't made an appearance yet . I heard they're crushing Manalasuo…"
Key personnel in the various battle zones had received the news . A strong team like Manalasuo naturally deserved attention, as a potential opponent . When the news first came in, they had thought it was some breaking new battle strategy by Manalasuo, not the news that they were 0-2 behind .
Raslei walked out by himself, his legs a little unsteady . In that instant, he had not even been able to retaliate . He had been beaten blind .
Back at the gathering platform, Raslei looked towards Lear, but he still refused to even look at him . Such an individual was merely a passing small fry in Lear's life .
Lear's face always looked as though he was mocking the world . But now, those that glanced his way were discussing him in whispers .
Lear sat back down silently at his seat . Fatty immediately hauled his ass over with drinks, with a free bootlicking on the side .
Manalasuo had been beaten 0-2 . Things were not looking good . Vincent frowned slightly . The Solar System Federation team's most famous members were Lear and Achilles . They were legends even in Academy X . Although such a performance was unprecedented, it fell neatly within his calculations . This match was a best of 7, and the Solar System was running out of aces . All they had left was Wang Zheng . Although not much was known about his status, Vincent was not overly worried . The odds still remained in their favor .
It fell to the Solar System to send out their fighter first in the third round . More people were streaming in, clearly having heard the news . The other battle zones were proceeding predictably . The chances of pulling off an upset in the top 16 contests was low .
At this moment, startled cries ensued from the back, and everybody stood up .
A few of the strong teams' intelligence personnel were left gaping as well . After they had sent out the news, they had anticipated that some teams might send some members to watch the match .
But…
My God!
The Atlantis team was in full attendance!
Was this a dream???
The Atlantis team had already easily swept their opponents in a 4-0 . They had faced no resistance . The team that faced Atlantis had no need to struggle either . This team's strength was unparalleled . They were the hot favorites to take the championship this time around . Perhaps only Aslan and Arbiter could pose a threat, but their chances were not good either .
Because this team not only had the unbelievably shining aces Bordia and Azhas, who were nicknamed as protected by God himself, but not a single member of the team was lacking either . Atlanteans were best as controlling their emotions . Because of their faith, they were unshakable .
To the Atlanteans, they were limitless . Unless by their own choice, they were unbeatable .
But such a team had actually brought full attendance here… for Manalasuo?
Clearly Manalasuo was strong, but they were still not worthy .
People were bowing and scraping, because it was not just the members that had come . Atlantis' prince Hao Lin had arrived as well . The little prince, who had human and Atlantean blood, looked more like an Atlantean, although his features were an amalgamation of the two, and irresistibly appealing .
Manalasuo's Bole and Meng Ao and the rest from Earth stood as well . Although the prince was young, his status was unmeasurably high . Because of the special circumstances, they conceded simple gestures of respect as well .
The Atlantis team sat at the extreme back… They were really here to watch the match .
Bordia and Azhas sat on the left and right of Hao Lin . They were obviously uninterested in the Solar System team, but it had been the prince's orders .
But once they saw the score, they were also surprised . The Manalasuo team had always been very strong . No matter how much they had flagged in this iteration, a skinny camel was always bigger than a horse . This was definitely a surprising turn of events .
Wang Zheng looked over as well . Catching the eye of the Aslan prince, he smiled . The prince smiled back as well, a friendly person .
Wang Zheng had no idea what they were doing here .
But the atmosphere was starting to heat up as the news spread .
The Atlantis team had personally made an appearance . Were they really here to watch the match?
This was surely a joke . The immediate response was disbelief, but it could not have been an error by so many people . Unless this was a huge prank involving actors .
The next battle was indeed risky . Nobody was sure of their chances, unless Wang Zheng decided to go . Apparently Wang Zheng had no intentions of fighting in the upper half .
His gaze swept past Lie Xin and Zhang Runan, landing on Fatty, who was still busy fawning over Lear . He had not even noticed the Atlantean prince . One must respect the art of bootlicking without being distracted .
"Third match, Luo Fei"
"Yes . Uh . Wait, what? Me again?" Luo Fei pointed at himself . He had already lost once previously . It had been embarrassing . How could it have fallen to him again?
"You see, uh, Leader, I sustained an internal injury in the last match, and I'm still…" Halfway through his excuses, he saw Lear nod, and his tone immediately changed . "… ready to fight to the death for the team!" he declared with a righteous commitment that inspired reverence . Quite the martyr .
Lear understood the meaning of this match . He would put aside their personal differences . He knew that Wang Zheng saw Luo Fei's true strength, and he respected him for that . Wang Zheng dared to use his team, unafraid of taking losses or criticism . Such a rival was difficult to harry, but he admired him for it . He would add a little color to Wang Zheng's path .
Zhang Shan and the rest were a little nervous . Why would Wang Zheng play with fire at such a crucial time? Manalasuo was not like their past opponents, and would leap at the slightest slip up on their part .
Even Manalasuo was not sure how to take it . They had felt it would be Lie Xin, if not Zhang Runan, who took the field, but it was in fact the trash Fatty .
Was this contempt?
"Ramses, this match is yours . No quarter!"
"Yes, Sir!"
Ramses stood up . His brow bone was a little dented . He had been hit before in a past practice . Although he had been treated, there was still a noticeable contour, which was very intimidating .
