(Thank you ~ You You ~ for your 200,000 generosity. You have accomplished the Storm Alliance Leader's hegemony. Mighty, mighty!)
It was the same for Dina. He could feel the calmness in Wang Zheng's heart. Only those with strength could be like this. And he did have an inexplicable sense of closeness to Wang Zheng. This was a rare situation. Among humans, they had only felt it from Aslan's Princess Aina. Of course, Her Highness had also felt the glory of the temple. It was different.
The Atlanteans' initiative put a lot of pressure on those who were discussing the battle. Suddenly, they felt that Saruman Snake had not sprung out from a crack in a rock. They had not reached where they were today in a single step.
At least that was the case for their captain, Wang Zheng.
It was hard to say how the battle team would fare. There were too many variables. If it was a duel, at this level of strength, in the entire hall, there was really nothing he could not do.
This was not arrogance, but confidence accumulated from battle after battle. If he did not have this bit of confidence after so many life-and-death battles, then it was not worth mentioning.
The reason why Earth, and even the Solar System, could not keep up with the pace of interstellar navigation was because the path of moderation was not suitable for the pace of crazy expansion.
Following closely behind, Aslan's captain, Lin Feng, led the Sword Shield Rose Knight battle team in. This captain's expression was calm. From start to finish, he did not care too much about the people around him. With his age and maturity, he could not be like a child. The level of SIG was too low for him. He did not even feel like showing off.
He glanced at the Saruman Snake battle team sitting in the middle, and did not say anything. He sat to the side directly.
Those who had thought that the Sword Shield Rose battle team would do something were disappointed.
"Damn, I thought Aslan would make them give up their seats."
"Are you stupid? This is Aslan's home ground. Isn't it embarrassing enough to do such a thing? That's too shallow."
"I just think it's too boring. Back in the days of IG, there were all sorts of noises."
"They were all little kids then. It would be silly to make a fuss now."
As expected, the major battle teams arrived one after another. Every strong battle team attracted the attention of many. It felt like a pre-match recognition session.
When the first row was full, for some reason, the venue suddenly quietened down. The ten seeded teams exuded a powerful aura. This was the spiritual power of confidence. These ten teams still needed to fight to prove that they were the strongest, but they didn't need to prove that they were one of the strongest.
The captain of Arbiter's Zero Degrees battle team, Aragorn, was unassuming and had no special characteristics. The entire Zero Degrees battle team was just disciplined and boring. Even in such an easy-going situation, they were in sync.
The Child of Light battle team had indeed "lit up" everyone's eyes. They were indeed too sparkling. The Mayans' recent performance on the international stage was very praiseworthy.
The Zero Degrees battle team from the Hail Cloud Alliance. Ai Zhengyang's appearance was indeed a little similar to Ai Xiaolu. However, it seemed like the relationship between these two cousins was ordinary.
The Darkness Empire's Dark Knights Battle Team looked more mature and older. Their leader, González, had a certain reputation in the military world. It seemed like the Darkness Empire had their own plans.
From this, one could see the foundation of each country. For example, the Darkness Empire, Versailles Empire, and Lya Sphinx had sent out members who were slightly older. Everyone knew that the older one was, the stronger one was before the age of 30. That was a process towards the peak, and not a process of decline.
But as long as it was a strong country, they would rarely think about this. This was a demonstration of a country's foundation.
Looking closely, among the top 10 teams, the average age of Saruman Snake was actually the youngest.
Because none of them were overage or borderline. Similarly, the four teams of Elite Academy X were the same. They were all around 20 years old, with a difference of one or two years. Other things aside, in this aspect, Elite Academy X was a notch above the other schools.
Of course, this could be used as an argument before the match. On the battlefield, it was still about ability. Otherwise, one would be overestimating oneself.
When all the team members had arrived, Si Jiali walked up. As the student council president of Aslan Royal College, she was also the center of attention. It should be known that all student council presidents would, without exception, become pillars of Aslan. But here, she was also calm and indifferent.
"Hello everyone, I am Si Jiali. Welcome to Aslan, the elites of the military schools from all countries, to participate in this SIG. Actually, I have been secretly observing everyone since the beginning. I found that there are so many handsome guys. You can clearly rely on your looks to make a living, but you insist on conquering the world." Si Jiali said. Instantly, there was a burst of laughter. The tense atmosphere was instantly alleviated.
With such a group of strong people gathered together, the entire venue was about to condense. The competition had not yet begun, so it could not be so stiff.
Of course, Si Jiali also knew that this was not her stage. She was not long-winded. "Now, I would like to invite General Akerlof of the Milky Way Alliance Command to introduce the specific competition schedule."
Lieutenant General Akerlof walked up to the central podium and surveyed the crowd. The general's expression was more serious, and he had no intention of cracking a joke. "The preliminaries are divided into five divisions, and will be held simultaneously. The relevant divisions and opponents will be sent to your Skylinks. Each division will have two seeded teams. The preliminaries will be an elimination system, and the losers will be directly eliminated. Each team has come here bearing the expectations of their countries and schools. I hope that everyone can display their full strength, and not have any regrets."
Lieutenant General Akerlof did not say anything else. The entire process was rather brief. He did not even say what to do next. In other words, if they could not make it through the preliminaries, they could go home. The early stages were screening, and it was very important to each team.
Next, Si Jiali introduced the preliminaries, and the treatment that the Royal College had prepared for everyone, as well as the usage of some of the college's public facilities. Although a copy would be sent to the Skylinks, as the host, the Royal College was willing to do their best.
But most of the members had no time to care about this, because everyone was concerned about the divisions. Of course, the most important thing was the first opponent.
Due to the large number of teams in the preliminaries, virtual battles were used. On the other hand, there could be a huge disparity in strength in the preliminaries, to avoid unnecessary casualties.
In the past, the SIG did not have much value, because the standard of strength was uneven. This was the stage where strength would change qualitatively.
Although the top 10 seeded teams were strong, in truth, none of the top 50 teams were easy to deal with. Although the Asura Battle Team was not in the top 10, with two Earth-rank warriors in the lead, who would dare say they were weak?
There were also teams from Arbiter, Manalasuo, and other strong countries. Meeting them was a blessing in disguise.
Every team looked at their mentality. Those with a good mentality were here to learn. Fighting against a strong team was a good experience, and to be able to step onto such a stage was also a life experience.
Those with a bad mentality were another story. Before long, everyone's Skylinks began to ring. The divisions were secondary. The key was the first opponent. A good start was important to any team.
After reading it, some were happy, and some were sad.
