"First match, third team wins!"
When Kui Xu Zi announced the result of the group battle, everyone below the stage sighed. Obviously, they were very surprised by this result.
"What? How could he lose like that?"
"They can't even beat five against four. The members of the eighth team are too weak!"
Most people were belittling Team Eight, but a few people had different opinions.
"You can't really say that. Although the third team only has four people, they are basically the entire team's combat power. As for the Level One Martial Ancestor, his battle power was negligible. Not only will he be of no help if he participates in the battle, but he will also become a burden to his teammates and even affect the victory of the team battle. "
"Now that you mention it, it does seem to make sense."
"You're right. Even if he participates in the battle, he'll only drag us down. But if he doesn't participate in the battle from the beginning, he'll create the illusion that we're in a disadvantageous position. The enemy will think that five against four is a sure-win situation, and they'll lower their guard and underestimate the enemy. This can be considered a psychological tactic."
"You're right. The third team must have discussed this from the very beginning. This is a trap!"
For a moment, everyone was discussing fervently, and the point of discussion was that Lin Yun was trash, trash to the point that he would only be a burden if he participated in the battle, and if he didn't participate in the battle, he would be a burden to his teammates.
As the content of the discussion became more and more reasonable, more and more people agreed with this view.
Just when everyone was discussing intensely, the barrier at the edge of the martial stage was removed and the members of the two teams walked down the stage.
Lin Yun, who had been meditating, stood up as if nothing had happened and followed the crowd down the stage. What welcomed him was the ridicule of the crowd below the stage.
"Trash that only knows how to rely on his teammates. How does it feel to win without doing anything?"
"I think you'd better not embarrass yourself in the next match!"
"I really don't know who gave you the courage. If I were you, I wouldn't have the face to enter the Void Spirits Realm!"
Lin Yun walked down the martial stage expressionlessly. He completely ignored everyone's ridicule, as if he didn't hear them at all.
Lin Yun didn't care about what everyone thought of him. On the contrary, the more people looked down on him, the easier it was for him to hide his strength.
On the other hand, Su Jin, Chu Haoyu and the others felt somewhat awkward. Lin Yun, who could have shown off his abilities and amazed the world with a single brilliant feat, had to endure the ridicule of the crowd.
However, they also understood Lin Yun's good intentions. They knew that Lin Yun wanted to hide his strength and catch the enemy off guard at the most critical moment.
After the mocking voices gradually subsided, Kui Xu Zi quickly activated the void formation again.
After the array flashed with a bright light, the jumping numbers immediately appeared. After flashing for a few seconds, they fixed to the numbers 1 and 11.
"The second match of the preliminary round, team 1 versus team 11." Kui Xu Zi looked at the fixed numbers and announced to the crowd.
"It's our turn, let's go!" A young man with a spear in his hand said to his teammates behind him. Then, he took the lead and jumped onto the stage.
Following that, another four figures ascended the martial platform. There were three men and one woman.
Among them, the woman held two short swords in her hands. She seemed to be an agile assassin-type martial artist. As for the three men, they all held longswords in their hands. It was obvious that they were sword cultivators who specialized in close combat.
Their cultivations were all Level Seven Martial Ancestor Realm. The young man with the spear in his hand had already reached the peak of Level Seven Martial Ancestor Realm.
They were all Level Seven Martial Ancestor Realm. This kind of team was definitely not weak. However, the problem was their lineup.
All five of them were physical close combat types. None of them had the ability to attack from afar, and none of them had the ability to support and control. Furthermore, none of them had the ability to resist pressure. The lineup was seriously imbalanced, and it was very easy for the team to collapse.
After the five of them entered the arena, they looked around nervously. It was obvious that they were looking for their opponents.
Under the nervous gazes of the five people, five young men dressed in black with the Meteor Dart totem imprinted on their foreheads slowly ascended the martial platform. They were none other than the team from the fourth-grade force, the Assassins Society!
When they saw that their opponents were actually the Assassins Society, one of the Seven Devils, the five people on the stage immediately fell into despair.
Although their lineup was imbalanced, the overall strength of the team was still very strong. If they had encountered other teams, it would not have been a problem for them to pass the preliminary round. However, they had encountered the team from the Assassins Society. This was not something that could be solved by improvisation.
Disregarding everything else, just the difference in cultivation between the two sides was something that could not be made up for no matter what.
"There's no need to fight. Just admit defeat." Ye Bugui crossed his arms in front of his chest and looked at his opponents with a face full of disdain. He spoke in an extremely disdainful tone.
Hearing Ye Bugui's words, the five opponents gritted their teeth. They all knew the difference between them and the Assassins Society, but they were not willing to admit defeat so directly. After all, they were all local geniuses and had never admitted defeat to anyone in their entire lives. If they really did so today, their pride would definitely suffer a fatal blow.
"You want us to surrender? Impossible! Even if the result is inevitable, we have to fight with all our strength! "The young man with the spear in his hand said with a face full of determination.
The four teammates behind him nodded their heads. Even if the result was inevitable, they would definitely not surrender without a fight. After all, it was a rare opportunity for them to fight with the geniuses of a fourth-grade force. They could take this opportunity to see the difference between them and the geniuses of a fourth-grade sect.
"You're not going to admit defeat? Hmph, I'm afraid you won't even have the chance to admit defeat later. "Ye Bugui sneered, then turned around and walked to the edge of the martial platform to sit down cross-legged.
He clearly had no intention of participating in the battle. Instead, he left the battlefield to his teammates, just like Lin Yun in the previous battle.
However, it was different from the previous battle. No one would mock Ye Bugui. This was because everyone knew that Ye Bugui did not make a move because such an opponent was indeed not qualified for him to fight.
Moreover, Ye Bugui's teammates were very strong. Even if Ye Bugui did not make a move, the four of them were enough to defeat the opponents in front of them.
"Are you all ready?" Kui Xu Zi asked the members of the two teams.
"Ready," the members of both teams replied in unison.
"Then let the battle begin!" Kui Xu Zi waved his hand after he finished speaking. The edge of the martial platform formed four barriers, completely surrounding the martial platform and isolating it from the outside space.
The five people of the eleventh team all activated their yuan qi and condensed their respective Martial Souls. The Martial Souls were basically in the form of swords.
