From the scattered shouts to the collective shouts of over a hundred thousand people, it had already spread to the various academies. Every single Tianjing student stood, raised their hands, and shouted the name of the strongest king with all their might. This was also the case for the other academies. Regardless of whether Wang Zhong wasn't from their academy, had already been eliminated, or didn't have the qualifications to participate in this CHF, Wang Zhong represented everyone's dreams of becoming a king.
All for the man standing in the middle. That's right, he's the genuine strongest king!
In the VIP room, Gui Hao looked as though he had eaten a fly. Although he had a free and unrestrained style, the entire situation had made him appear like a lowly clown. Vladimir shot a faint smile at Gui Hao before leaving. Laura had also disappeared. She was going to celebrate with Wang Zhong. He's too awesome! She had already started to worship that fellow!
One by one, they disappeared, as Wang Zhong's performance had already caused them to lose all grounds for discussion. They could either use their actions to prove themselves, or shut their mouths. There was no meaning in blindly comparing. Tianjing had already entered the quarterfinals. They had to consider who would be Tianjing's opponent.
At this moment, there was probably no one who was willing to be Tianjing's opponent. Weakness?
As long as Wang Zhong was present, who would dare to say that they could defeat Tianjing!
This was the "weight" of a king!
Wang Zhong's control over the cross wheels had already reached an unimaginable level. They could be said to be the supreme killing machine for the middle range.
Alasi was very intelligent, but he had still made a fatal mistake. From the very beginning, Wang Zhong was the most dangerous person in Tianjing. In fact, there wasn't much meaning in dealing with the others. However, if he left them alone, they would still be able to pose a huge threat to Tianjing.
The others were already undergoing emergency treatment. Emily and Lily's injuries were slightly heavier, while Scarlet was slightly better off. Although Barran's injuries weren't light, his physique was stronger, and his recovery rate was also stronger. Having reached this stage, Tianjing had basically reached their limits. Although it might be a problem for how many people would be able to participate in the next match, everyone had done their best.
Although they had sacrificed a lot, this was the CHF. This was also the fate of a soldier. Everyone had to fight with their lives on the line.
This time, victory belonged to Tianjing. With Tianjing advancing into the quarterfinals, the entire world would remember the name of Wang Zhong.
In the afternoon, Seer's duel would be held. If anyone were to say that Tianjing was more popular than Seer, that Seer was basking in Tianjing's glory, and that there was a person called Wang Zhong who was more popular than Divian, that person would definitely be treated as a lunatic.
As of now, the high level of attention given to the afternoon match had indeed extended over the match between Tianjing and Tianjing. Everyone wasn't satisfied yet!
This duel was worth anticipating, as the Barbarian squadron was most likely the most ferocious squadron within the entire CHF. Seemingly, they had given their all in every single fight, with their thirst for victory surpassing that of their lives.
Barbarian City's location was rather desolate. It was obvious that Barbarian City was not well received by the Federation.
This was also the truth. In the Federation's administrative system, Barbarian City had always been at the bottom. However, unlike other weak city-states, Barbarian City had a certain level of strength. The reason why their administrative level fell behind was due to historical reasons.
Because Barbarian City was located at the border, it was considered a sensitive buffer zone. In the beginning, there was only a very small settlement here, and its main purpose was to research mutant creatures. However, as time passed, the original research site gradually changed, and the Federation turned this place into a place of exile for criminals. Many criminals who had committed serious crimes but were not sentenced to death were exiled here.
No one knew when the name Barbarian came out.
To the Federation, there was no need for an additional city-state like Barbarian City. Everyone there wore the label of a criminal, either because of their own sins or the sins of their parents.
Barbarian City was such a place to extract value. In the end, not only did it become a prison for death row criminals, some minor criminals were also exiled here, and darkness prevailed.
However, all of this came to an end with the announcement of Barbarian City's establishment ten years ago.
However, living conditions were getting worse and worse. Not only did Barbarian City have to face a harsh environment, but they also didn't have the support of the Federation's city defense system. They had to rely on pure human strength to defeat the mutated beasts that competed with humans for living space. Every year, the beast horde would be a life and death battle. Every Barbarian City citizen that survived would inevitably be riddled with scars, be it physically or mentally. Everyone had suffered injuries, and everyone had relatives that died in these battles.
They needed the Federation's support, true support!
They needed the Federation's defense system, rune cannons, and more importantly, food and better medical conditions.
The struggle between the parliament and aristocratic families had given them an opportunity. If they were able to enter the quarterfinals, the parliament would think of ways to give Barbarian City a spot. This meant that Barbarian City's status would be truly acknowledged, and they would be able to obtain even more resources.
Therefore, they had come here for the quarterfinals!
Entering the top 16 was already close to success. Many people from the Federation were starting to know of their existence. However, all of this was meaningless to them, as they needed to enter the quarterfinals.
Passing through the hurdle of Seer was extremely important. However, the problem was that the Seer squadron clearly didn't want to fall into the hands of such a squadron, and were even more unwilling to become a stepping stone for a chess piece.
However, the outcome of this match had caused people's jaws to drop. Under Divian's leadership, Jormungar had performed outstandingly, while Bierhoff and Lancelot Seer had displayed exquisite standards. Despite the Barbarian squadron giving their all, they were only able to obtain an insignificant victory, before being swept away by the Seer squadron with a score of 4: 1.
Naturally, due to their overall standard being rather unique, they had most likely attracted the attention of the various great aristocratic families. Perhaps, the situation in Barbarian City might change. However, they had already come to a halt in the CHF.
The third day of the quarterfinals had ended. This was undoubtedly a day that had an enormous impact on many people. Tianjing's entry into the quarterfinals had given hope to countless people. Wang Zhong had also made a name for himself through this match. He was no longer All Mouthy King or a dark horse, but had truly entered the ranks of the apex experts of the Federation's younger generation. Torres had lost without any complaints, while Grai had returned leisurely in the afternoon. This brother of his had always had a big heart, appearing as though he wasn't worried about the final outcome. Nevertheless, he was still extremely happy upon receiving the news of their victory.
Other than Wang Zhong, who had obtained a great harvest, Barran was the other person who had obtained the greatest harvest. From now on, no one would dare to ignore this heavy soldier who had pulled down the average standard of the CHF. No one had expected Tianjing to be able to walk this far, causing even more people in the Federation to pay attention to this city.
The final day of the quarterfinals had begun, with Stuart making a mighty appearance in their home ground. Just like before, they were endlessly popular. Being the largest city in the Federation, as well as the most famous and mighty existence in the Federation, this squadron had received the most support in the quarterfinals, with the entire stadium supporting the Stuart squadron.
The Hurricane squadron's summoner tactics were completely useless against the powerful Stuart squadron. The duel ended with Stuart's individual performance, with a 4: 0 victory without any suspense. Even with the Hurricane squadron's strength, they were still unable to force Stuart to reveal anything. Even without Carolyn taking the stage, they still managed to win the duel easily.
In the afternoon, Giant God Peak appeared to be responding to Stuart, with a similarly dominating 4: 0 victory over the Highland Knights squadron. Among them, Borat's giant hammer was still able to send people into despair, with his opponent being unable to evade that strike. Fernandes's instant petrification special ability was also invincible. Unless one encountered someone like Mo Wen, it was impossible to not look at one's opponent. However, looking at one's opponent would cause one to be petrified at any moment, which was too fatal. Angele's 5 transformation beast bloodline was able to challenge Divian's dragon bloodline, and was considerably tyrannical. Coupled with Dicaprio, who was as steady as Mt. Tai, the Giant God Peak squadron had displayed the aura of a aristocratic family that was heading straight for the championship.
Naturally, this victory was a delightful one. There were also people who doubted that Giant God Peak's opponents were too weak, at the very least, when compared to Tianjing. However, from another perspective, there were no weaklings in the top 16. What's more, Stuart and the other squadrons did not have any so-called opponents. What did they mean by their opponents being too weak?!
Giant God Peak had entered the quarterfinals in a domineering manner. Although they weren't as berserk as Tianjing, they still gave people a feeling of unfathomable depth.
Giant God Peak had secured a spot in the quarterfinals. At this moment, the quarterfinals of the CHF had all been revealed.
Martial Ghost Divine Emperor squadron, Stuart squadron, Heaven's Fate squadron, Grozny squadron, Tianjing squadron, Copperfield squadron, Seer squadron and Giant God Peak squadron.
These 8 squadrons represented the highest standards of the Federation's Heroic Soul Academies.
At this moment, no one dared to talk about luck or luck. Being able to enter the quarterfinals represented absolute strength.
In the arena, the legendary soldier Rodriguez announced that the quarterfinals would be held 7 days later.
Although 7 days seemed like a very short period of time, for soldiers who had experienced so many battles and were already at the peak of the Casted Soul Stage, every single day was extremely precious, as they could gain new understandings and breakthroughs every single day.
This was also the reason why everyone had forcefully stayed in the Casted Soul Stage, all for the sake of improving under such stimulation.
"That's very normal. The quarterfinals have already been extremely intense, especially the last match. That was truly the final match of the quarterfinals. Did you see how Franken died? Now, even the full video can't be uploaded, as it has to be censored. That's because it's too brutal. The quarterfinals will definitely give the various squadrons more time to prepare! "
"Truthfully speaking, Giant God Peak is truly strong. At the beginning, when I saw them being ranked 7th by the officials, I was extremely unconvinced, as I felt that they weren't as strong as the Tianjing squadron. However, from the looks of it, I've made a grave mistake. Giant God Peak is the most frightening and hidden one. That's because everyone can clearly see how strong the Tianjing squadron is. One, two, three, four, they can all be said and done. However, Giant God Peak is super hidden. Truthfully speaking, if not for Franken having a grudge with that Angelo, that Angelo might have given the round-of-16 a super gigantic surprise."
"I've long said that there's a reason why Giant God Peak is ranked above the Tianjing squadron."
"Speaking of which, other than Tianjing and Giant God Peak, the rest of the commoner squadrons have been annihilated. I originally thought that the Blazing Angel and Blazing squadrons would have a chance to break through."
"An S rank evaluation will always be an S rank. The strength of the aristocratic families is still the same as before. I estimate that the quarterfinals will be the limit of the Tianjing squadron. It's still hard to say for Giant God Peak, but in the final match, they've truly displayed something strange and mysterious. That's the greatest surprise of this CHF."
The Skylink was like a tidal wave of discussions, with some of them tying Tianjing and Giant God Peak together, with some even looking at them in a higher light.
The aristocratic families were extremely calm, as they felt that this was a natural outcome. The Tianjing squadron was slightly surprised. As for Giant God Peak, they had bumped into the Highland Knights squadron. In their words, this was a fight between noobs. Clearly, such an evaluation had immediately triggered an intense battle, with many of the audience in the stadium erupting in anger. Do you know how intense and terrifying that match was?
Stuart, Heaven's Fate, Grozny and Martial Ghost Divine Emperor squadrons were undoubtedly in the upper echelons of the quarterfinals. As for Tianjing, Seer, Giant God Peak and Copperfield, they were in the lower echelons.
The entire Federation was currently discussing about the quarterfinals. Naturally, it would depend on the matchups. It could be said that the opponent would directly affect the outcome of the quarterfinals.
As for the Tianjing squadron …
Wang Zhong and the others were prepared to drink beer, with the euphemistic name of "striking a balance between work and rest".
However, the reality of the situation was that Tianjing wasn't even the slightest bit prepared for the quarterfinals. They truly weren't prepared for it at all, yet they had actually charged their way into the quarterfinals! To the Tianjing Academy, this was a pleasant surprise that bordered on the terrifying! However, this had caused their intelligence network to appear to be stretched thin, causing them to feel slightly embarrassed. The amount of data they had gathered wasn't much, with only the combat footage that had been shown in the CHF. There wasn't any more than that. At this stage of the CHF, it wasn't something you could obtain just because you wanted to, as the other party had their own security measures.
Up till now, the entire Tianjing squadron was extremely proud of themselves. Everyone just needed to put down their burdens and fight, causing the entire Tianjing squadron to be at their most excited.
As for how they would fight in the future, that would have to wait until they had confirmed their opponents. As for every single member of the Tianjing squadron, they already had their own thoughts, as Wang Zhong had already decided on the attributes of this squadron.
