The incomparably tyrannical Mo Wen had easily broken through Karl's defences. Exactly what kind of attack was that? Even the 2nd drive might not be able to achieve such an effect?
However, the problem was that no one in the stadium could see it.
In the 4th duel, Lancelot Seer, who carried the last hope of countless Seer fans, had taken to the stage.
Frankly speaking, just from his movements and actions at the start of the duel, one could tell that he was an extremely powerful ranged soldier. Although he wasn't on the same level as the 5 great Mo's List ranged soldiers, there wasn't much of a difference between him and the Mo's List ranged soldiers. Coupled with his Gale attribute special ability and crossbow, it was rather unique.
Faced against the similarly novice ranged soldier, Mo Shang, it was originally a 50-50 situation. Ranged soldier against ranged soldier, with both sides being on the same level, the only thing that mattered was one's mentality and calmness. The most likely outcome would be a long-ranged attack on the surface, with both sides dragging it out for an eternity, before obtaining victory through patience and calmness.
However, the equilibrium that countless people had imagined had been broken in an instant.
At this moment, Lancelot Seer didn't lack anything. The only things he lacked were patience and calmness. After 3 consecutive defeats, he was fighting with his back against the wall, and was still in the last position. Despite having warned himself time and time again, his impatient mentality had still affected him. With a rash advance, he had entered his opponent's attack range. His forceful attack had failed, and he had been easily countered.
4: 0!
Truthfully speaking, basically everyone had guessed the outcome. However, no one had guessed the process. 4: 0! Looking at the calm expressions on the faces of the Heaven's Fate squadron members, no one cared about the outcome or process. They were just chatting amongst themselves, with some even teasing their captain. Could it be that they had gotten serious? Yet, it had ended just like that.
Victory was a given.
Being low-key and modest didn't mean that one was weak. On the contrary, this was true strength. Transcending worldly affairs required strength!
The mentality of the weaker squadrons had always been a problem that was criticized. The stronger squadrons were endlessly mythologized by people, as though their mentality was similarly strong. However, in reality, that was only because they had yet to encounter an opponent stronger than them.
Seer's defeat, especially Lancelot Seer's complete defeat in the final duel, had deeply illustrated this point.
The entire arena gave a standing ovation to the victor, Heaven's Fate. No one blamed Seer. In fact, Karl Seer had already brought out the dignity of the Seer Family. However, their opponent was Heaven's Fate, a colossus that was unstoppable and had no weaknesses!
At this moment, the Heaven's Fate squadron had already leapt to become the number 1 hot favourite for the championship, with Mo Wen being the undisputed number 1. Even Wang Zhong could only obtain the 2nd place. The unfathomable demeanour of a great general caused him to feel as though he was looking down on the entire CHF.
To be able to defeat a powerhouse like Seer so easily, was this glory that belonged solely to the Empyrean Pole Mo Family, or did it belong to the entire S + rank squadron?
How powerful was S +?
The Skylink was filled with differing opinions. However, in reality, this question wasn't hard to verify.
One thing was certain. In the semifinals, the various powerhouses would have to show some of their true abilities.
After the end of the duel, Wang Zhong coincidentally bumped into Mario on his way back. Mario had come to remind the Tianjing squadron to be careful, just like what had happened to him, which had nearly caused him to miss this match. Frankly speaking, although the Blazing squadron had lost, everyone still hoped that the Tianjing squadron would be able to walk further in this CHF. Although the Gui Family was extremely, extremely powerful, it didn't mean that they had no chance at all.
Despite being unwilling, Mario still brought along Sharmie's greetings. If Tianjing was able to defeat Martial Ghost Divine Emperor, Sharmie would treat them to a meal.
However, Mario could not help but to underestimate Tianjing. Tianjing's victory had nothing to do with them. Although he was rather impressed, however …
Before it was their turn to fight, the atmosphere in the Tianjing squadron was still rather relaxed. In reality, Martial Ghost Divine Emperor had placed all of their hopes on Wang Zhong and Grai. The other squadron members could only act as cheerleaders to make up the numbers. Truthfully speaking, people like Colby and the others felt as though they were living in a dream. Even if they were to win without doing anything, it could be considered as them personally witnessing this legend. As for defeating Martial Ghost Divine Emperor, that was something that they did not even think about.
Similarly, the Giant God Peak squadron did not have the mood to be leisurely and carefree. Dicaprio was no longer in the carefree and leisurely manner he had at the start of the match. Instead, he was solemnly looking at every single member of his squadron. Within the resting room, everyone had solemn expressions on their faces. The match against Stuart would determine their future. As long as they could get past the hurdle that was Stuart, they would be like carps leaping through the dragon's gate. From then on, their might would be unstoppable, and they would become the new aristocratic powerhouses. As for them, they would also be the central force, and would receive an all-rounded upgrade. Glory, strength, and status would be easily obtained. Everyone's eyes were burning with the desire to do battle.
On the 2nd day of the quarterfinals, Stuart VS Giant God Peak!
The Dimensional Arena Stadium was even more lively than before. Compared to the Heaven's Fate squadron, Stuart's popularity was much higher. The current top 10 on the popularity rankings were:
1. Mo Wen
2
3.
3
3.
4
4.
5
5. Vladimir
6
Napier Mo
7
Karl Seer
8
Gui Xinying
9
Divian
10
Bobo Torres
Naturally, these rankings would be adjusted as the fights progressed. Take Mo Wen and Wang Zhong for example, due to their successive spectacular fights, they had occupied the top 2 spots. However, other people would also perform well in the subsequent fights. To a very large extent, a soldier's performance would be determined by their opponent. If their opponent was too weak, there wouldn't be any leeway for them to display their strength. At this stage, it would be too foolish to put on a one-man show.
This was something that only Noriba would do. Similarly, the stadium was packed with people. Compared to Heaven's Fate, the Stuart fans were the exceedingly fanatical type. This was Stuart's home ground, with 80-90% of the 150-160 thousand people present in the stadium being Stuart fans. They wore silver coloured uniforms similar to the Stuart squadron's uniform, causing the stadium to be filled with a sea of silver. Although Giant God Peak had some supporters, they appeared to be completely overshadowed by the fanatical cheers. Outside of the stadium, there were unexpectedly over 200,000 people gathered, split into 4 square formations, all of them in an orderly fashion.
The Parliament's strength had managed to stop some of the support groups. However, in the face of such a massive lineup, they were all scattered. It had to be said that the Stuart Family had once again fiercely suppressed their opponents in this match. Through the live broadcast, many cities were able to see this, with quite a few of the upper echelons being aware of the underlying meaning behind this match. It had to be said that the aristocratic families had displayed a suppressive control over this match.
However, this was, after all, the Stuart Family's home ground. This was understandable, as one's strength would speak for themselves. Regardless of who it was, there was still a limit to how much they could interfere in a match. In the end, it all depended on one's combat strength. If Giant God Peak was able to display a tyrannical performance, everything that Stuart had prepared would become a contrast.
There were many rumours regarding Giant God Peak. The Giant God Peak squadron had managed to overcome all obstacles along the way, and had proceeded extremely smoothly. In fact, their opponents weren't weak, however, they had displayed sufficient talent and strength. There was also a rumour that Tianjing was, in fact, the protector of Giant God Peak. With the 2 great squadrons working together to conquer the stronghold of the aristocratic families, the one that was truly strong wasn't Tianjing, but Giant God Peak.
Therefore, Giant God Peak had to face off against the strongest Stuart squadron. After all, according to the squadron rankings, Stuart was the strongest.
Faced against the powerful Stuart, would Giant God Peak continue the defeat of Seer yesterday, or would they completely break the monopoly of the aristocratic families?
"The chances are slim. I've always felt that there's only a sliver of difference between S + and S rank. Fuck! The match between Seer and Heaven's Fate yesterday has basically toppled my worldview."
"4: 0! Karl, Divian, and Jormungar are so strong … "
"You can't say that. Stuart isn't Heaven's Fate Academy. What's more, Giant God Peak isn't the same as Seer. "
"Seer's strength lies in their individual combat prowess and techniques. Be it Karl, Divian or Jormungar, they're all the same. However, they just had to bump into the Mo Family, who are the most proficient in techniques in the entire Federation. Indeed, there's no curse for them to lose. However, it can't be said that the disparity between Seer and Heaven's Fate is that great."
"That's right. Giant God Peak isn't the same. Their individual cultivation might not be as strong as Seer. However, you can't compare to their innate special abilities and big moves."
"Things like Fernandes's petrification special ability, and Borat's thousand mile long teleportation ability are too unfathomable in the arena. From the looks of it, the variable will come from here!"
Before the start of the match, the Skylink was already in a frenzy. Frankly speaking, there weren't many people who believed that Stuart would lose.
The Parliament was also paying a high level of attention to the match today. The disparity in strength wasn't an absolute factor that would determine the outcome of the match. It wasn't that the Parliament didn't know about the disparity between them and the aristocratic families in terms of resources and nurturing their elites. However, the outcome of a match of this level wasn't completely dependent on one's individual combat prowess. Rather, one's special abilities were rather important. As for Giant God Peak, ever since the start of their nurturing plan, they had been established with the goal of this match as their goal. Therefore, they weren't afraid of facing Stuart.
The large screens were currently broadcasting the promotional videos of the 2 squadrons.
Compared to yesterday's promotional videos, which were filled with shouting and killing, the background shown on the large screens appeared to be rather peaceful. It was a stretch of boundless wilderness, with a city in the midst of construction rising from the ground. That was the predecessor of Stuart City.
Hundreds of thousands of people were like hardworking ants, adding bricks and tiles to the city. Surrounding the wilderness, there were even more people chopping down trees and transporting the various materials needed for the construction of the city. The entire scene appeared to be flourishing. As the camera zoomed out, a sea of elite troops could be seen stationed in the surroundings …
The camera was broadcasted across the entire world. Despite the entire world knowing about this period of history, seeing such a spectacular scene with their own eyes still caused countless people in the various empires to feel shock and awe. Even Solomon, who was seated in the Kaiser Empire's imperial palace, had sunk into deep thought as he gently knocked on the armrest of his chair. Being able to mobilize over a million people to build a city in the wilderness was something that no empire could accomplish.
Not only the empires, even many people in the Federation's parliament had turned silent.
This was also the most shocking thing that the Stuart Family had ever done. When Stuart City had suffered a devastating blow, they had not left. Instead, they had chosen to rebuild it. At that moment, not a single person had left. Becoming one of the core members of the dark era, they had resisted against the darkest era.
This was the most magnificent feat in the history of the Stuart Family, as well as the greatest contribution that the Stuart Family had made to humanity and the Federation. No one could compare to this feat, and no other achievement could replace it!
From the looks of it now, this wasn't just a single city. At that time, there was an incomparably large distance between the cities. If not for the Stuart Family's persistence in maintaining the integrity of the chain of 100 cities, the Federation might very well have collapsed. Furthermore, there wouldn't have been the many great cities that were able to hold on, as every single city was their home!
It was precisely this historical significance that allowed the Stuart Family to remain as the leader of the Federation for a very long period of time. They had braved the dangers of destruction to persevere through.
At this moment, the gates of the city opened up, as the goddess-like Carolyn appeared with the members of the Stuart squadron. Wu Li, Rennes Stuart, Yi Luo and Borhachi. The only 4 people on the Mo's List. There was no need for them to flaunt their might, as they possessed the greatest strength!
Deafening cheers rang out across the entire stadium, as their popularity soared to its peak. The Stuart Family had also started to show their might, with the number of viewers on the Skylink breaking past 19 million, setting a new record. This was Stuart! This was the power of goddess Carolyn!
A sliver of a faint smile hung on Carolyn's absolutely beautiful face, causing her to appear less cold and aloof, while causing countless people to fall head over heels for her. Although she was able to restrain herself a little in the stadium, the Skylink had already exploded. Today, Carolyn had meticulously dressed herself up. Dressed in the silver combat uniform of the Stuart Family, it accentuated her tall and slender figure. That innate aristocratic aura swept away everything in its path. She was absolutely the princess of the Federation.
Countless claps and fresh flowers rang out, causing the Giant God Peak video to appear extremely cold and cheerless. This was a solo show with Dicaprio as the main focus. After all, there wasn't anything worth praising about the Giant God Peak. As for their individual performances … frankly speaking, although the earlier matches weren't bad, they were absolutely not spectacular beyond compare.
At certain times, one's foundation was indeed a fatal thing.
Before the start of the match, there were many people shouting that Heaven's Fate was invincible, or that Martial Ghost Divine Emperor had the strength to deal with Stuart. However, upon truly arriving at Stuart's home ground, and seeing Carolyn's appearance as a sovereign descending from the heavens, as well as reliving the greatness of Stuart, even the highest level of trolls were truly unable to voice out any objections.
The faces of the Giant God Peak squadron members were exceedingly ugly. Clearly, not a single person had treated them as an equal opponent. However, that didn't matter, as the fight would allow everyone to change all of this. It could be said that Stuart was a big boss. As long as they could defeat them, they would definitely drop a pile of treasures and reputation points.
"After today, we'll be the biggest main characters!" Said Dicaprio as he pushed his spectacles up the bridge of his nose. "Borat, the first duel is yours. Regardless of who your opponent is, don't get hung up on fighting! Give us a good start!"
The short fellow gave a cheeky laugh, before swinging his gigantic hammer heavily onto his shoulder. "One minute!"
All of the squadrons below the stage were present, including the Seer squadron that had been eliminated yesterday. Nevertheless, they appeared exceedingly calm and unperturbed, as this was due to the disparity in strength. Furthermore, being an aristocratic family, they needed to have the heart to accept defeat. Furthermore, the competition between them had just started. A single loss in the Casted Soul Stage didn't represent the end.
Carrying his gigantic hammer on his shoulder, Borat cracked open a smile as he stood on the stage.
There wasn't a 50/50 chance of victory, nor was it possible for it to be a 50/50 chance. There was no one that could defend against his special ability. Even the strongest opponent would be sent flying by a single strike of his hammer. Naturally, strong opponents might not be injured. However, the problem was that this was a competition. Entering the stage meant that one would lose. This was the reason why he was invincible!
