Chapter 1184: Group of Death

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Although it was unlikely that it would happen, Aslan did not want to be the subject of gossip. The group draw for the quarter-finals was drawn by the representatives of the eight teams under the witness of numerous generals and organizing committees. The entire process would not be as exaggerated as other sporting events. The results would be announced under impartial circumstances.

Grouping was most crucial, especially at this stage. The Sea Queen battle team had obviously been labelled as the least popular opponent to meet.

To the contestants, they were more concerned about other stuff.

Almost all the teams were researching the runic technology of the Atlanteans.

Everyone had a certain degree of understanding of runes for some years now. Even Aslan and Elite Academy X had done research on the runes, but everyone had been taught a lesson by the Atlanteans.

This had been a rather shocking situation. Frankly, the Arbiters were not that weak, but listlessness was the likelier scenario. They had never faced such a method of combat before, so they had not recovered from the blow yet.

It was plain bad luck for the Iron and Steel battle team. They had helped the other teams learn a valuable lesson.

Wang Zheng and his team were also researching. He absolutely did not believe in being complacent, nor in the power of god. Any form of attack was dependent on rhythm and routine, and everything was traceable. The mysteries and fears had to be cast aside first. Truthfully, no matter how exaggerated the Atlanteans were, they were not going to affect him. In fact, Wang Zheng had grown up in an environment of fear, so he had built an immunity to fear.

Overall, the runic tactics should be the routine of the spiritual control of the Atlanteans combined with the runic technology. It was a similar concept to the humans’ Ability X spiritual communication, except that this should be a more complicated stage. This should be similar to the creation of a practice by the humans. This inner routine of breathing was the routine used by the Atlanteans.

But there should be at least an eighth octave of breathing method to begin with, to be able to understand the rest. But basically no one knew about Atlantis’ matrix formation, which meant that no one could find any insight.

Under such circumstances, the most important thing was to hone the skills to deal with such changes. From the runes that had already appeared, there were defenses, attacks, and teleportation. No wonder the Atlanteans were not concerned about the teleportation box. They had the transmission runes matrix. However, Wang Zheng did not believe that all Atlanteans were capable of this.

Even if they could, the speed, strength, and stability would not be the same. The Sea Queen battle team at this SIG was also one of the leaders of Atlantis. Every team, including Wang Zheng, had the same reaction after they had calmed their nerves. In truth, they had to give due recognition to the power of Atlantis, but it did not mean that there was no solution.

Understanding aside, it was not a problem yet. This was because only Atlatntis’ next opponent needed to be concerned. Furthermore, each round after that would expose the limitations and characteristics of the opponent.

With more observations, there was bound to be solutions.

The remaining seven teams were relatively calm. They hoped that they would not be the unfortunate sacrificial lamb.

The committee did not waste any time. The night after the final eight teams for the quarter-finals were finalized, they announced the list of the line-ups for the semi-finals. The list spread instantaneously throughout hundreds of nations in the Milky Way Alliance.

Top half:

The Sword Shield Rose battle team versus the Child of Light battle team

The Dynasty battle team versus the Zero Degrees battle team

Bottom half:

The Saruman Snake battle team versus the Soulless battle team

The Sea Queen battle team versus the Heaven’s Arrow battle team

As soon as the list of the line-ups was announced, there were loud exclamations from Earth, especially from Ares College, who was almost completely dumbfounded. This was... even the worst f**king b**ch would not be this unlucky!

The bottom half of the line-ups were practically the group of death. The most repulsive thing was Saruman Snake’s first battle was against the Soulless battle team. Not Zero Degrees, but Soulless. This single difference in word was the difference between heaven and hell. Apart from the strength of the Soulless battle team, even if Saruman Snake were to win, how many of the members would remain standing afterward to get into the semi-finals?

Fine. Even if they were that lucky, and the whole team made it through to the semi-finals, they would still be facing the winner of the battle between the Sea Queen battle team and the Heaven’s Arrow battle team. No matter how huge a dark horse the Heaven’s Arrow battle team was, it was useless!

Ai Xiaolu was the one who had picked the draw, and this was undoubtedly a great honour. Everyone on the Saruman Snake team unanimously thought that she could be a representative. But after the draw, Ai Xiaolu herself was so dumbfounded that she wanted to... chop off her hand!

After this incident, Ai Xiaolu had never picked another draw in her lifetime. But this was another story.

Nonetheless, this was the final result, and no one could do anything about it. Cheating was not a possibility, since it was drawn in the presence of so many people, including the generals of the different countries, and the ambassadors were present too. Furthermore, she had made the draw with her own hands.

However, the Saruman Snake battle team was not discouraged. They had indeed “climbed” from the bottom to achieve what they had today. They were accustomed to the pressure. Furthermore, for a team that had worked so hard together and having gone through several phases of mistrust and trust, these young people had already built a very special bond. Everyone only had a fixed period of youthful days in their lifetime, no one could turn back time. Even if they had never spoken about it, a special trust had already rooted in their hearts.

After this SIG, they would probably be parting ways and pursuing their own individual goals. Therefore, if a storm was coming, they would go against the wind and head into the storm!

The situation for the top half was comparatively better. The Sword Shield Rose battle team had not particularly drawn a good lot either. They would be facing the mighty Child of Light battle team. The extreme energy was perhaps a real concern for Lin Feng.

Comparatively more balanced, and truly lucky, were the Dynasty battle team and the Zero Degrees battle team. Looking at the result of the draw, these two teams probably celebrated somewhat. At least they had a good chance of making it to the semi-finals.

On the other hand, the strongest team, the Sea Queen battle team, was matched up against the weakest team, the Heaven’s Arrow battle team. Even though the Heaven’s Arrow battle team’s performance was impressive when they eliminated the Military Affairs battle team, they had already demonstrated their killer move. The Five Elements resonance was indeed magical. But the principle was the same. When it was employed for the first time, the move was really unexpected. For the team that had come this far, if the same move was used again, a targeted approach would definitely be available. After all, the resonance of the Five Elements was not as mysterious as the runic matrix of Atlantis. All the countries had done their research. It was only a matter of whether they could do it or not.

This period of rest and adjustments was enough for the eight teams to be in peak condition. Despite the evaluations of the outside world, by being there, everyone held the hope of becoming the champion. The contempt of the others was the best incentive for themselves. Allow the opponents to surrender for victory!

At the same time, the arena for the remaining battles had the capacity to host ten thousand spectators. A portion of this would be given to the various embassies and the representatives of the various colleges. The rest would be sold to the public. The purchasers of these tickets were limited to existing students. Among these, as the host nation, Aslan was given an extra five thousand seats. After all, the distance was far, and it was on home ground. I felt as if Aslan wanted to witness the Sword Shield Rose battle team reach the top at home. In addition, judging from the overall situation, the Sword Shield Rose battle team had a seventy percent chance of advancing to the finals.

The tickets were sold out within minutes.

It was amazing that there were a lot of rich students these days.

Apart from Aslan and the nearby regions, the rest would have to take the inter-galactic express. This was an astronomical figure. Of course, this was a perfect time for pretences. By coming to watch once, you could pretend for one entire year.

Although the road to this SIG has been rough, it was the first time in many years that such a large-scale military competition had taken place, and at the same time, it had been opened to the public. The organizing committee underestimated the desire of the average person’s desire to understand the “secret.”
