Seemingly everyone's gazes turned towards Mo Wen. This Heaven's Fate captain was actually that ferocious? He had gotten rid of Carolyn, Vladimir, and Gui Hao?
Although everyone knew that Mo Wen was very strong, he was extremely low-profile compared to the previous few squadrons. Furthermore, his results didn't seem to be that good.
Joseph did not continue on this topic. Instead, he started to announce the final scores. The calculation of the scores was extremely simple. For the previous few rounds, S ranks were worth 50 points, A ranks were worth 40 points, B ranks were worth 30 points, C ranks were worth 20 points, and D ranks were worth 10 points. Other than that, there were also some fluctuations in the scores. For example, A- was worth between 40 and 44 points. This number was determined after various evaluations, and was rather accurate in determining one's strength and performance. Furthermore, there were also bonus points. The top 10 squadrons in the first elimination round would have their total score increased by 10 points. Furthermore, if they were able to obtain the highest evaluation in all of the regions, they would be able to obtain an additional 20 points. However, this was not something that an ordinary person could imagine. Only 5 people would be able to obtain these points in the 5 elimination rounds. Thinking about it, they should be those Mo's List squadrons.
"23rd place, Caliban Academy. Total score: 188 points."
"22nd place …"
There was no need to continue. When the first squadron's score was announced, the faces of a large number of people instantly turned ashen.
A total score of 188 points for the 5 elimination rounds meant that they had to obtain 3 A's and 2 B's. This result was already a death sentence for many squadrons.
Casio was one of them. However, he was still anxiously waiting for the results. Their squadron's current score was 1 A and 3 B's. Including the 10 bonus points from the first elimination round, what if they managed to obtain an S rank in the captain arena? Although Casio felt that this was a bit of a daydream, he still held onto that sliver of hope. However, as Cole Joseph's name list continued to move downwards, with an average score of over 200 points, he had completely given up on such thoughts.
Casio did not have too many curses. Although he was unable to advance to the next elimination round in this CHF, his performance was still rather outstanding. In the first elimination round, he had roped in over a hundred squadrons, and was even able to obtain a 10th place. There was a high possibility that he would be able to enter the sights of some of the great families in the Federation. Furthermore, quite a few squadrons had already been announced. However, Tianjing wasn't among them. This was a piece of good news that allowed Casio to feel less depressed.
A trash squadron was a trash squadron. So what if they were Assassin? So what if they were a heavy soldier that could defeat an S rank? What could a warrior who could insta-kill an instructor do? He acted like a big-tailed wolf all day long, but in the end, didn't he get eliminated just like him? With the B rank scores of their ranged soldier and heavy soldier, it was impossible for them to have the chance to hear their names in the top 20 rankings.
"Eleventh place, New Holy City Academy, total score 211 points."
…
"7th place, Giant God Peak Academy! 213 points. "
"Yay!"
"Captain is mighty!"
The members of the Giant God Peak Academy, whose backs were completely drenched in sweat, were so excited that they started to clap their hands together. Only at this moment did they feel relieved. Although they were rather confident in captain Dicaprio's theoretical results, other than Dicaprio, the rest of the people had already started to feel slightly uneasy when the top 10 rankings were announced. If their captain had really obtained a D, they would have wasted the 4 A's he had obtained earlier.
Wang Zhong, Scarlet and the rest also expressed their congratulations. Nevertheless, Ma Dong did not have the mood to do so as he stared closely at the stage. Similar to the situation over at Giant God Peak, Tianjing was also one of the squadrons that could advance to the next elimination round. However, they had already obtained a high score of 213 points. It was slightly hard for Ma Dong to imagine what would happen. After all, their squadron had obtained 2 B's. Even if Wang Zhong obtained an S, it would be useless!
There definitely wouldn't be any problems with Wang Zhong's theoretical results. Could it be that his earlier scores were lower than everyone's expectations? Or could it be that some accident had occurred?
"Wang Zhong …" Excitement filled Dicaprio's heart, though he was too embarrassed to reveal it. If Tianjing's name had not appeared in the top 5 rankings, it was very likely that Tianjing had already been eliminated.
However, before he could finish his thoughts, Cole Joseph's voice had already rang out once again. "5th place, Tianjing Academy. Total score: 221 points!"
Many squadrons in the entire competition zone were paying considerable attention to Tianjing and Giant God Peak, the 2 dark horses that were originally evaluated as C rank squadrons. They were also aware of Tianjing's situation in the earlier rounds. Despite obtaining extremely ordinary scores in the ranged soldier and heavy soldier arenas, they were actually able to obtain 5th place in the competition zone?!
"That's impossible!" Casio subconsciously shrieked out.
A stretch of silence filled the entire stadium, as this result was truly too explosive. Many people had their mouths wide open. How was that possible?
"Where did that score come from? Their ranged soldier and heavy soldier are at most B rank! Their assassin is only an A! As for their soldier arena, didn't an expert say that a sneak attack wouldn't result in an S rank? "
"It's useless even if they get an S rank! With 2 B's dragging them down, even if they get an S rank in both the soldier and captain arenas, it's absolutely impossible for them to obtain a score of 221! "
"There must be some sort of shady dealings, right?"
The entire stadium instantly erupted into an uproar. Everyone did not care about whether Tianjing was able to make it out of the group stage. What they cared about was whether there was any shady dealings involved. It would be a pretty good excuse for them to return home.
"In the captain arena, the Tianjing squadron has obtained the S + rank for the entire competition zone, being the only one to obtain a full score of 60 points. Therefore, they have obtained an additional 20 points for the first place in the entire competition zone." Cole Joseph shot a look at the audience, before turning his gaze towards Tianjing. "Tianjing squadron's captain, Wang Zhong, has obtained the highest score with a full score. At the same time, his thesis has been evaluated by the Federation's Institute of Sciences, and will become a fixed topic for discussion. Student Wang Zhong, those arrogant old fellows from the Institute of Sciences are full of praise for you. If not for the CHF being ongoing, they might have come looking for you."
Instantly, the entire stadium turned deathly silent. … Tianjing??? Federation's Institute of Sciences?
Which Tianjing? What Tianjing? Who the hell was Wang Zhong?
Casio felt as though he had been struck by lightning. Was there any fucking humanity left? A mere Tianjing? How was that possible!
Without talking about them, even the members of the Tianjing squadron were dumbfounded. Although Wang Zhong had obtained the first place in the annual examinations … that was only in Tianjing. How could he do that within the Federation?
Most likely, only Ma Dong and Scarlet had a matter-of-fact expression on their faces. There was nothing they could do about it. He was the strongest king! What could a mere exam count for!
Nevertheless, Wang Zhong did not care too much about it. To him, this was just a test to enter the main competition. Nevertheless, obtaining the first place was still extremely strange. He had assumed that obtaining an S was already an extremely good result.
Although being a member of an aristocratic family gave him an advantage, there was no one who had the same way of thinking and perspective as him. Ever since he was young, Wang Zhong had been proficient in thinking. Furthermore, his adoptive parents were extremely knowledgeable. Although his father and mother specialized in different areas, they seemed to know a little about everything. Ever since he was young, Wang Zhong had obtained a completely different understanding of things compared to his peers. Therefore, after entering the Heroic Soul Academy, he had been successful in every endeavor. From Wang Zhong's point of view, it was extremely normal for his parents to know a lot. Any child would feel that their parents were the greatest in the world, and Wang Zhong was no exception to this point. Under such a perspective, coupled with his experiences in the hyperdimension and Simba, Wang Zhong had completely exceeded the level of thinking of ordinary people.
