SSS Grade Saint Knight - Chapter 200

Chapter 200: The First Top University Opponent, Was Zhou Yi Doomed to Lose?

TL: Rui88

The next day, the team match began as usual.

There were three matches in the morning and three in the afternoon.

And Suhang University had two matches that day, held in the morning and in the afternoon respectively.

And at 10:00 in the morning.

Suhang University also welcomed the official first battle of the team match!!

“Brother Yi, come on!”

“Sister Ran, come on!!”

“…”

Every school had four substitute team members; Suhang University was no different.

When the official team members were seriously injured and were unable to take the field, the substitute team members replaced them.

However, since the exhibition match, this still was Suhang University’s first battle.

In the absence of injuries, these substitute team members naturally could only transform into a cheerleading squad to cheer on their team.

In the morning, Suhang University’s opponent was Liyuan University, and the opponent’s substitute players also cheered for them.

In fact, because the match venue for the team competition was extremely large, there was only one team match at the same time.

Therefore, the spectators in the surrounding stands all let out crazed shouts:

“Suhang University!!”

“Suhang University!!”

“Liyuan University!!”

“Liyuan University!!”

“…”

Apart from the university names, players such as Zhou Yi and Jiang Churan also were intermingled with the shouts.

The host announced, “Please have the players from Suhang University and Liyuan University come onto the field!”

Under the host’s announcement, both teams took the field.

They arranged their formations at a distance of two hundred meters from each other.

At the rear of the team, Zhou Yi—who wore black Wrathful Dragon Blue Armor and carried a Totem Stone Pillar on his back—spoke in a low voice, “Just like during the exhibition match, just charge straight over; I will give you all the enhancement buffs.”

Although the two teams were separated by two hundred meters,

they only needed four or five seconds to launch a surprise charge toward the opponents’ faces with the speed of people like them.

For ordinary priests or Saint Knights, four or five seconds might be only enough to cast two or three skills.

But for Zhou Yi, it already was enough to apply buffs to the entire team.

Jiang Churan and the others immediately nodded, “Understood!”

Liu Yang even more excitedly took out his staff: “Yesterday’s single match without Brother Yi’s enhancement always felt as if something was missing. Now it’s good, finally I can once again enjoy Brother Yi’s high enhancement!”

Liu Yang’s words struck a chord with everyone.

Indeed…

They were accustomed to fighting shoulder-to-shoulder with Zhou Yi and enjoying his formidable enhancement.

Fighting solo in yesterday’s single match indeed was somewhat unsettling for them.

The announcement came, “All players, please get ready!!”

“3!…2!…1!… Begin!”

The countdown ended.

Suhang University then initiated the charge first.

Within the entire team, if one had to say who was the fastest besides Zhou Yi, it undoubtedly was Jiang Churan, who was a Spirit Swordmaster.

But she did not detach from the team; instead, she slowed her pace to move forward together with the team.

The entire team seemed like a sharp arrow charging forward.

Cai Hua carried a Giant Shield at the front, while the rest closely followed behind.

And during the entire team charge, Zhou Yi continuously applied buffs, and the entire team was cloaked in a layer of golden holy radiance.

“As expected of a top university, this momentum is too strong…”

“With Zhou Yi, this Saint Knight, present, the entire Suhang University team feels a sense of righteous sanctity.”

“Indeed, the aura of Holy Light is too intense; it makes one involuntarily feel a sense of justice.”

“…”

In the spectator stands, countless people exclaimed in amazement.

In one external live broadcast after another, countless bullet comments flooded the screens.

They all marveled at the strong and oppressive presence displayed by the Suhang University team.

And at this moment, no one dared to question the lineup composition of Suhang University…

In the spectator stands of the competition, Cheng Yongchun of Qingjing University was somewhat dejected, “Had not expected that a Saint Knight could be used in such a way.”

The National University Freshman Exchange Competition, besides showcasing the strength of the new students, also was another means of promoting the schools.

And with Suhang University possessing a Saint Knight, not to mention their strength, merely the scene of all team members being clad in Holy Light was enough to attract attention…

…

…

Liyuan University never appeared in the finals of the exchange competition in previous years.

It was only this year that it emerged as a dark horse from among over three thousand six hundred universities.

The strength of the players from Liyuan University undoubtedly was among the better ones among the seven ordinary universities.

But when facing Suhang University, they only were crushed.

After struggling for five minutes—even the last player was pressed by the sharp sword edge of Jiang Churan’s Dark Moon Ancient Sword against his neck—they decisively chose to surrender.

As a result, Suhang University also secured a record of 1 win and 0 losses.

After the morning match ended, there was another match in the afternoon.

The opponent in the afternoon match was Rongyang University.

Rongyang University, among the seven ordinary universities, was considered at the bottom in terms of strength.

Thus, once again, Rongyang University was completely crushed by Suhang University.

After this match ended, Suhang University’s team competition record reached 2 wins and 0 losses.

Because this match for Suhang University was the last of the three afternoon matches,

when the match ended, it already was 5 o’clock in the afternoon.

After Dean Wu Mang encouraged everyone, he then announced the disbanding of the team.

Liu Yang exclaimed, “Hey! The match list for the single match had come out!”

As soon as the team disbanded, everyone received the match lists for the next day’s single matches.

Upon seeing the match list on his phone, Liu Yang was on the verge of tears, “I’m done for—my opponent tomorrow is Wei He from Modu University; this is going to be rough…”

As a mage, the type of opponent he feared the most undoubtedly was someone with high mobility and high attack damage.

And this captain from Modu University, Wei He, was renowned in previous matches for his extremely agile speed and a formidable saber technique.

Song Xialan smiled as she said, “My opponent is a mechanic from Qingjing University, so it shouldn’t be difficult to win,”

She also observed several matches of Qingjing University, and this mechanic only performed at a rather ordinary level within the team.

Jiang Churan curiously leaned over, “Brother Zhou Yi, who is your opponent?”

Looking at the match list, Zhou Yi said, “Li Xin from Modu University, an 18th-level Martial Artist.”

There were a total of 22 participants in the third round of the single matches scheduled for tomorrow.

A total of 11 matches were scheduled, and his match just was the first one.

Jiang Churan remarked, “Li Xin? His strength seems pretty good.”

She quickly recalled the information about this person.

He not only possessed an S-Rank awakening talent but also possessed a Special Bloodline.

Within the entire Modu University team, he was among the stronger presences.

Of course, this level of strength was nothing in comparison to Zhou Yi…

…

…

The further the single matches progressed, the stronger the participants’ abilities became.

And the third round of the single matches, one could say, filtered out the strongest batch of new students from universities across the country!

Such battles naturally were more exciting and were more favored by the masses!

Thus, early the next day, the spectator stands were filled with densely packed figures.

Mo Yue estimated that there were at least 120,000 to 130,000 people.

If the holographic projections were added, the number of viewers almost approached 170,000 to 180,000!

Of course, that only was the offline audience.

At that time, people from across the country, who watched the matches through various channels, numbered at least over one hundred million!!

“The third round of the single matches is finally about to enter the most intense stage of the competition!”

“Phew, the participants who make it into the third round are all top-notch geniuses!”

“Yesterday’s match list had already come out; even the lowest-level participant had been at level 18, truly top-notch!!”

“…”

The spectators discussed among themselves, very much looking forward to the upcoming third round of the single matches.

And in one corner of the spectator stands, a group of four from the Zhou Family likewise did not leave.

Zhou Heng smiled as he spoke, his tone conveying a sense of relief, “During the single match the day before yesterday, Zhou Yi had been lucky not to have encountered any top university players.”

“This time, right from the start, he had to face a pure damage-dealing Martial Artist from Modu University; this time, Zhou Yi was bound to lose.”

Only if Zhou Yi realized the gap between his Saint Knight and a pure damage-dealing profession could he have a chance to change his profession and join the Zhou Family Main Branch.

Thinking of the incredible bloodline power that was felt emanating from Zhou Yi’s body that day, Zhou Dong’er was somewhat at a loss, “Brother Zhou Yi, are you definitely going to lose…”

On one hand, she hoped that Zhou Yi would choose to join the Zhou Family Main Branch.

On the other hand, she did not wish for Zhou Yi to be defeated just like that…

Unlike Zhou Dong’er’s inner conflict, after learning that Zhou Yi’s opponent was Li Xin, the students of Modu University were utterly convinced:

“Hehe, Xin Ge, once you make your move, Zhou Yi is bound to lose!”

“He had already shown off too much in the team match; we had long taken a disliking to him!”

“In the first two rounds, he had been lucky enough not to have encountered any of us or the people from Qingjing University; this third round had been like colliding with a gun muzzle!”
