SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 190
Chapter 190: An Unreasonable Lineup? A Slap in the Face!
TL: Rui88
“Fuck!! What a powerful Holy Aura!!”
“Is this Suhang University’s Saint Knight?!! This is just too outrageous!”
“I seemed to have heard some whispered prayers from within the Holy Light…”
“…” As soon as the battle began, the myriad Holy Auras enveloping all members of Suhang University gave the audience an immense shock!!
Unlike ordinary Holy Light, this Holy Light seemed to have condensed an incomparable noble faith.
Just a single glance made one feel the sacred solemnity.
And Zhou Yi at the rear of the team was even more like a deity, bearing an indescribable divine pressure.
There were many strong individuals in the audience.
They were well aware that such pressure was not something that an ordinary Saint Knight could possess!!
“Gift of Courage, Weapon Blessing, Gift of Protection… In just one second, this Saint Knight had actually released no less than six buff skills, can you believe it?!!”
“No wonder Suhang University did not need a Priest; with this set of skills, Suhang University’s team had increased its overall strength by at least half! With such an amplification, who the fuck needed a Priest!”
“Saint Knight Zhou Yi!! As expected of Suhang University’s team captain!!”
“Hehe, an unreasonable lineup? Now it had slapped the faces of countless people!!”
“…” The existence of a Priest was to provide the team with as much sustain and recovery capability as possible.
The absence of a Priest meant that the team’s recovery capability would be greatly reduced.
Previously, the Suhang University team without a Priest was criticized by many for this very point.
Some even said that Suhang University’s decision was a major misstep, a symbol of weakness.
But now, Zhou Yi released his skills and activated the full amplification.
All doubts regarding the unreasonableness of Suhang University’s team lineup were self-defeating, and it was a blatant slap in the face!
At that moment, some of Suhang University’s fans immediately picked up their phones, ready to edit and send this information online!
“Old Wu, your team’s Saint Knight captain was really something.” On the field below, Cheng Yongchun, the team leader teacher of Qingjing University, also was slightly astonished.
As a hidden profession, the Saint Knight’s greatest role was on the battlefield.
A buff skill amplification range of hundreds to thousands at a time was what every legion longed to possess.
In such small-scale team competitions, Saint Knights also performed quite well.
Before the competition began, he guessed that the 22nd-level Saint Knight Zhou Yi would likely bring a substantial amplification.
However, he did not expect that with one wave of amplification, Suhang University’s collective strength increased by nearly half!!
It was simply unimaginable!!
‘Thankfully our team also had a trump card, otherwise, just this one Zhou Yi would have been enough to overwhelm us.’ Cheng Yongchun instinctively glanced towards his rear team, and only then did he feel slightly reassured.
Qingjing University already was the runner-up for three consecutive years.
This time, he no longer wished to merely secure second place.
“What a strong Holy Light aura, what a terrifying amplification effect…” In the area where Modu University was located, Su Rui frowned slightly.
With this in mind, how to quickly deal with this Saint Knight in battle became the matter they needed to consider next.
…
…
After applying the buff skills, Zhou Yi at the rear of the team also charged forward along with the team.
Originally, there was a vast gap between top-tier universities and ordinary ones.
With the addition of his own amplification, the entire battle presented a one-sided trend.
In just three short minutes, all members of Rongyang University fell…
Of course.
Because it was merely an exhibition match, everyone refrained from using lethal force.
“This battle is over, the winning side: Suhang University!!” When the battle ended, the electronic prompt on the stage also sounded.
“That was too easy.”
“This difficulty wasn’t even as good as farming an Abyss-level Goblin Dungeon instance.”
“I hadn’t even fully warmed up, and it ended too quickly.”
“As expected, only Qingjing University or Modu University could bring any challenge.”
“…” With an almost crushing victory, Jiang Churan and the others felt extremely at ease.
They walked off the stage, laughing.
Meanwhile, the group from Rongyang University was led off by the Priest team that was waiting by the side.
They began undergoing various physical examinations.
“Jiang Churan’s swordsmanship was very fast, her agility was graceful, and her timing in releasing skills was spot on.”
“Song Xialan was proficient in the use of various talismans, often providing the corresponding support at critical moments.”
“Cai Hua’s Taunt and Shield Wall had absorbed roughly one third of the damage, and her tankiness was quite good.”
“But those were secondary; the most important was the powerful amplification brought by that Saint Knight Zhou Yi…” In the audience among the teams, many university teams felt extremely troubled.
The buff skills released by Zhou Yi were truly terrifying.
They actually were able to increase the entire team’s strength by more than half!!
“Suhang University’s students were inherently stronger than those of our ordinary schools.”
“Combined with this half-strength amplification, it was simply unbeatable…” At the same time as feeling helpless, Zhu Yu of Hancheng University also felt extremely puzzled.
Their school naturally also had freshmen who transferred to the Saint Knight profession.
Although this freshman was not of high level, only at level 16, she also took the support role path, having learned many amplification-type buff skills.
But even after applying all the buff amplifications, the total amplification only was about 20%…
It was completely incomparable to Zhou Yi’s!
“Could it be due to the S+ Talent Protection of the Holy Angel?” The more Zhu Yu thought about it, the more she believed so.
After all, the S+ Talent Protection of the Holy Angel was able to greatly enhance all divine and light-type skills.
Upon thinking of that, she felt a tinge of regret, wishing that Zhou Yi had joined her own school.
“But that wasn’t necessarily the case; after all, our school could not compare to Suhang University. Not to mention how far one could grow, there was absolutely no way to reach level 22…” Hancheng University’s teaching resources also were good, but compared to Suhang University, they seemed somewhat inferior.
Zhu Yu herself was well aware of this.
“This feeling, that’s right, it really was the aura of the Ice Bloodline…” Within the Hancheng University team, Zhou Xiaobai stared blankly at Zhou Yi in the Suhang University team, his eyes widened.
…
…
“Thank you to both teams for the wonderful battle you had brought us!”
“The team competition will officially begin this afternoon, and here is the matchup schedule.”
“In addition, the individual competition will officially begin the day after tomorrow! Please, those students who wish to participate in the individual competition, sign up by 12 o’clock tonight.”
…
A huge matchup schedule appeared in mid-air.
The team competition adopted a points system, and therefore every university needed to face nine other universities.
In other words, a total of 45 matches were played in the team competition!!
Moreover, the schedule for the team competition was long planned out.
In addition to the fact that there only was a half-day of team competition today, team competitions were held for another 7 days.
Every day consisted of three matches in the morning and three in the afternoon.
Among these, several days were also arranged to host individual competitions.
“There were a total of three team matches this afternoon, and none of them involved Suhang University.”
“Our first battle was scheduled for three days later, one in the morning against Jinzhong University, and one in the afternoon against Xixiang University.”
Zhou Yi and his team quickly found their school’s matchup times and opposing universities on the schedule.
Besides battles with ordinary universities, the first clash with a top-tier university was scheduled for five days later, with Qingjing University as the opponent…
“The schedule would be sent out to each team and to every spectator’s email later.”
“Now, the opening ceremony of the exchange match is over, please exit in an orderly manner!”
Unlike football or basketball games, the month-long final championship naturally did not allow the spectators to remain seated throughout.
And for the subsequent matches, many spectators were free to choose whether to watch or not.
The spectators exited in an orderly fashion, and the major universities on the stage also began to leave one after another.
Because it was on the Floating Mechanical Island.
In order to return to the ground, they needed to take a specialized flying transportation vehicle.
Of course, there were many such flying vehicles, so there was absolutely no need to worry about overcrowding due to too many people.
In fact, the Floating Mechanical Island was much like a small city; besides the competition venue, there were many other buildings, and it was extremely prosperous.
Those spectators were not in a hurry to leave; on the contrary, they stayed behind to take a tour.
