Chapter 80: Domination
Chapter 80: Domination
As the referee's whistle sounded, the match between Team 233 and Team 035 officially began.
At this moment, standing below the platform, Hao Zhijian, the captain of Team 233, felt an overwhelming surge of excitement.
Finally, this day had arrived!
He had finally gotten the chance to compete against the Elite Class and prove his abilities to everyone.
"Don't get too excited yet, and there's no need to be overly happy.
After all, this team isn't one of the core teams of the Elite Class; they're just an ordinary team from the Elite Class."
"No one here thinks they're our rivals, so simply defeating them isn't enough. I need an absolute, crushing victory!"
But what exactly was a crushing victory?
Would the Pig-Bird strategy sweep them in one go?
No!
The audience was already bored of that form of domination; even if they did it again, it wouldn't impress them.
So, Hao Zhijian decided to crush his opponents in a different way.
He would fight three opponents alone!
Yes, that's right, one versus three!
It was challenging, but the confident Hao Zhijian believed he could do it.
On the one hand, he was genuinely overconfident, and on the other hand, the organizers had invited a breeder from Fu Cheng to assist him.
This master was truly skilled; he immediately enhanced the Fridge Bird's strength to a 2-star level and restructured its battle formation, devising a new strategy.
In just one night, the Fridge Bird's combat power had increased by at least fifty percent.
In this situation, Hao Zhijian believed he could pull it off. Even if he couldn't defeat Team 035 in a 1v3, he could still dominate them and then call in his two teammates to effortlessly crush the opponents.
After considering and finding it feasible, Hao Zhijian turned to his two teammates beside him and said, "Let your Summon Beasts retreat a bit; I want to spar with my old classmate."
Hao Zhijian's teammates were quite obedient, following his instructions without question.
As soon as their Summon Beasts moved, the commentators on the platform noticed the anomaly on the arena.
"Look, on Team 233's side, the Fire Lizard and Hedgehog Pig are retreating, while the Fridge Bird is taking the lead. Is this a new tactic?
No, I understand. This isn't a new tactic; Captain Hao wants to go 1v3!
Indeed, Captain Hao had this idea, and it must be said that such a notion was somewhat impulsive. A 1v3 scenario was almost like a fantasy, and it was basically impossible to succeed.
But for some reason, as I watched Captain Hao's back, I had an inexplicable confidence in him.
Yes, that's right, I believe in Captain Hao! Audience, I bet with you that the winner of this battle will be Captain Hao. If Captain Hao loses, I'll eat the commentator's booth right here and now!"
"Well, let's focus on the arena and see how this fateful battle unfolds.
Will it be Captain Hao, who rose from adversity step by step, or Team 035's gifted ones who will claim an easy victory? Let's wait and see!"
As the commentator's words ended, the screen changed once again.
The large screen split into three, with the main screen showing the arena and the smaller screens displaying the members of Team 233 and Team 035.
Hao Zhijian had been waiting for this moment, and when the camera focused on him, he spoke in a deep voice.
"Come, let me see the true capabilities of her student.
Whether they come one by one or all at once, I, Hao Zhijian, will take them all on!"
Hao Zhijian's words ignited the entire arena.
Initially, with the organizers' deliberate guidance, the audience was already leaning towards supporting Hao Zhijian.
After all, Hao Zhijian's victory held more significance as an underdog story, and coupled with Ye Qingsnow's dominance, the audience favored Hao Zhijian even more.
As Zhang Yunkai spoke these words, the audience felt a sense of immersion, feeling particularly proud and eager to see him dominate and take down Team 035 in a 1v3.
And so, at this moment, cheers erupted across the entire arena.
This was exactly the effect Zhang Yunkai desired.
The plan was proceeding smoothly, and now it was up to Team 035 to make their move.
Zhang Yunkai looked towards Team 035, clearly seeing the anger on the faces of all its members.
The angrier they were, the happier Zhang Yunkai became.
This meant they wouldn't immediately go for a 3v1, which would be too humiliating and unsightly.
To save face, they should send out one of their members for a 1v1, giving him the chance to quickly eliminate one of them, and then it would be a 1v1, increasing his chances of victory.
As expected, Team 035's next move was exactly as Zhang Yunkai had anticipated.
Team 035, in their fury, sent out a Summon Beast, and Zhang Yunkai was delighted to see this.
"Fools, you've missed your only chance at victory," he thought.
While feeling triumphant inside, he feigned regret and anger on his face.
"So, you choose a 1v1? It seems you still look down on me as before!
In the book of life, there's no such thing as a mistake-free version!"
"I'm not the same person I was before.
My Fridge Bird isn't the same as before either. It's impossible to defeat it with just one Summon Beast, and a Goblin at that!
It's best if you all come at me together."
Zhang Yunkai pretended to be deep in thought, appearing nervous and hesitant.
Fortunately, they didn't agree to a 3v1.
Their response was calm.
"No need, this one's enough to deal with you!"
As these words left their mouth, Zhang Yunkai's face darkened with a heavy scowl.
Although this was the answer he wanted, the condescending tone was not what he desired.
"Still acting so high and mighty?
You think this one's enough to deal with me?
Fine, let me see what you've got!
Fridge Bird, attack!"
With Zhang Yunkai's command, Fridge Bird launched its offense.
The commentator on the stage continued the show.
"The match officially begins, and the fateful battle between Team 233 and Fridge Bird and Goblin has finally commenced.
Fridge Bird initiates the attack with an Ice Needle to the head, followed by a Dive Attack. Is it going all-out?
No, Fridge Bird has equipped an Ice Shield and, upon approaching the Goblin, it exhales a Cold Breath.
This localized use of Cold Breath seems to have a misty effect, indicating a significant power-up for Fridge Bird.
The Goblin is enveloped in the mist, and Fridge Bird charges in with a Tear attack. It seems this will be the final blow."
"Indeed, Fridge Bird's approach is fierce, but it's understandable. Captain Zhang has been provoked.
He worked tirelessly to earn his spot on the arena, finally getting the chance to prove himself to everyone, only to be challenged by his former classmate.
Anyone would be angry in this situation, so Fridge Bird's assault on the Goblin is, in a way, a protest against the unfairness of fate.
I believe that victory will belong to the striver, and the so-called genius who looks down on others will eventually be trampled by those who strive..."
The commentator's words were cut short halfway through as the mist from the Cold Breath dissipated, and the audience could now see the situation on the arena.
The once ferocious Fridge Bird now lay pinned to the ground by the Goblin, its sword poised at Fridge Bird's neck.
Trash, what a short and soft chapter!!!
