SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 165

Chapter 165: I Believed in Zhou Yi’s Strength! The Roster Was Approved!

TL: Rui88

Inside the Dean’s office.

The over-three‐meter‐tall Dean Wu Mang, even when seated, was taller than Zhou Yi, who had reached a height of 1.9 meters.

Being positioned above naturally created a sense of looking down.

Those who were looked down upon felt a sense of inferiority.

Moreover, as a third-transfer Professional, Wu Mang naturally exuded a formidable aura.

Ordinary students, especially those with slightly weaker mental fortitude, might find themselves at a loss for words when facing Wu Mang’s gaze.

But Zhou Yi stood straight and articulated clearly, “The official team members were as follows: Saint Knight Zhou Yi, Spirit Swordmaster Jiang Churan…”

The top six students in the ranking sequence were, respectively, Saint Knight Zhou Yi, Spirit Swordmaster Jiang Churan, Spirit Master Song Xialan, Mage Liu Yang, Warrior Cai Hua, and Knight Guo Jun.

Furthermore, a well-rounded team was mainly divided into a tank role, a damage output role, and a support role.

Cai Hua, who used a giant shield, was undoubtedly the tank.

Meanwhile, Jiang Churan and Liu Yang corresponded to physical damage and magical damage, respectively, thereby avoiding a single method of offense.

Had it been an ordinary team, a Priest would have been required to serve as support at this point.

However, with Zhou Yi present, the responsibility for providing healing and buff amplification naturally fell on him.

Furthermore, possessing S+ Talent: Death Resistance and B-Grade Talent, he could also serve as a tank.

In addition, with skills such as S-Rank God’s Hand and A-Rank Light’s Punishment among many others, he could equally serve as a damage dealer.

That is to say, Zhou Yi alone encompassed three different roles!!

Of course…

In ordinary teams, such a person would generally be referred to as a jack-of-all-trades.

Involved in everything, yet mastering nothing.

However, for Zhou Yi, it was different; he was involved in every aspect, and he excelled in each one!!

“Apart from the six official members, the remaining four were substitute members.”

After Zhou Yi finished his last sentence, Wu Mang’s brows had already furrowed slightly.

“In that case, the overall healing capability of the team would be somewhat lacking; have you considered that?” Wu Mang looked at Zhou Yi.

He knew that, as a Saint Knight, Zhou Yi himself was capable of applying numerous buffs.

But compared to a Priest, his healing ability was considerably inferior.

According to his plan, the entire team should have included another Priest.

“If the healing ability is poor, then just crush and defeat the other teams without dragging it out, wouldn’t that be fine?” Zhou Yi’s words caused Wu Mang to be slightly stunned.

He then fell into deep thought.

In the National Freshmen Exchange Competition, as a top university, Suhang University naturally regarded the other top universities, Modu University and Qingjing University, as its most important opponents.

Because the teaching strength and new student resources of the three top universities were more or less equivalent.

It was basically impossible for one side to achieve a complete, one-sided crushing victory.

And precisely for that reason, whenever the teams of the three top universities met in the group competitions, the match inevitably dragged into the later stages.

Prolonged battles greatly tested the team’s endurance.

At such times, a Priest who could maintain professional status throughout became an extremely important presence.

Nearly every team brought one.

In previous years, Suhang University also proceeded in this manner.

However, this time, the situation was somewhat different.

As the top freshman, Zhou Yi’s strength almost left the second place far behind!!

Especially once he possessed the Frost Titan Bloodline, his strength soared even more!!

With Zhou Yi present, it might indeed be possible to do without a Priest and directly crush the teams from other schools!!

Thinking of that, Wu Mang’s frown gradually eased, “Since you have confidence, then this roster is approved. But Zhou Yi, whether our school can achieve a five-peat of honors entirely depends on you…”

“Don’t worry, Dean Wu, the first place will certainly be ours,” Zhou Yi smiled confidently.

Whether for the sake of the system tasks or for Suhang University’s honor.

He was determined to secure that first place!

…

…

After Zhou Yi left, Wu Mang pondered for a moment, and then he dialed the phone numbers of the other two deans.

Although Suhang University had a total of five colleges, the National Freshmen Exchange Competition was primarily focused on combat.

It only involved the War College, the Elemental College, and the Weapon College.

Therefore, the composition of the expedition team was managed by him and the other two deans.

Buzz~~

After a while, two holographic projections appeared in mid-air.

They were, respectively, the Dean of the Elemental College, Zhou Huayang, and the Dean of the Weapon College, Song Qi.

“Old Wu, is there anything else?” Zhou Huayang spoke first, noting that he only just returned to the Elemental College.

Song Qi, beside him, did the same, casting a puzzled glance.

“Zhou Yi’s expedition roster had already been submitted,” Wu Mang said. “Let me brief you roughly…”

Next, Wu Mang briefly explained Zhou Yi’s personnel arrangement.

“Wouldn’t this be a bit too risky?” The Dean of the Weapon College, Song Qi, furrowed her brows slightly.

Though it appeared to be merely one less Priest, it had a tremendously significant impact on the overall strength of the team!

With a Priest present, even if a team member made a mistake in the group competition, there would still be an opportunity for recovery.

Without that Priest, the team’s margin for error would be greatly reduced!

“I actually think that this is fine,” The Dean of the Elemental College, Zhou Huayang, said with a hearty smile. “I believe in Zhou Yi’s strength; he won’t drag the match into the later stages…”

As the one who personally performed the Bloodline Fusion Ritual on Zhou Yi, he was well aware of Zhou Yi’s strength!

And he also knew that Zhou Yi possessed an S+ Secret Technique that could transform him into a Frost Titan!

According to his view, even without teammates, Zhou Yi alone could probably secure victory in the group competition!

“Alright then, I’ll approve it on my end,” Seeing that Wu Mang and Zhou Huayang both agreed to this lineup arrangement, Song Qi no longer objected.

Or rather, even if she objected, it wouldn’t make a difference, after all, it was two votes against one.
