In the Zhongzheng Auditorium, silence could no longer be used to describe the scene of Jinghai University's victory — a close-up shot of the five players.
Oppressive, dead silence.
"Boring, let's go," a Taiwan University student stood up and said.
One after another, more and more Taiwan University students chose to leave the auditorium.
Previously, the school team had used public opinion to bully the visiting team, but the aftereffects of being slapped in the face erupted.
Bai Xiaowen mercilessly ridiculed the home team before the start of the match. In the eyes of the Taiwan University students, he was acting tough. Many people hoped that the school team could defeat Bai Xiaowen, or at least make the match more intense and tragic, and show that the Taiwan University team's strength was not that weak.
However, the Taiwan University team did not even put up a decent fight before they were completely defeated. Jinghai University team actually won by a 0: 5...
Bai Xiaowen not only acted tough, but also did not need to run, he was also preparing to slap them in the face in the second match...
This could not be tolerated.
Looking at the half-empty Zhongzheng Auditorium, the host, Chen Baola, was at a loss. She started to regret listening to the Gemini Stars' rotten idea and participating in the bullying of Bai Xiaowen — this was a bullying accident!
The happiest people about this kind of accident were the reporters from all over the country.
Many reporters kept waving their pens and taking pictures with their cameras. They were already thinking of tomorrow's newspaper headlines...
The Taiwan University team that reappeared on the rostrum also had listless eyes. Even the captain, Jing Chengwen, had a deep sense of loss in his eyes — Bai Xiaowen had used facts to prove the horror of professional restraint. How could they win the next match?
They could not see any hope.
In fact, before the start of the second match, everyone had basically guessed the result.
With Taiwan University's current mental state, they had no chance of winning at all.
In the second match, they drew the resource plunder mode. Bai Xiaowen did not have any intention of showing mercy to the Taiwan University team at all. He launched a fierce massacre, directly trapping the five opponents in their base camp, and continued to kill as soon as they revived...
In the end, even if all five members of the Taiwan University team were revived, they did not dare to come out again. At the 23rd minute, they could not stand the humiliation and chose to surrender.
In the auditorium, most of the Taiwanese university students had already left. A small portion of the remaining students even started booing, mercilessly mocking the Taiwanese school team.
Bai Xiaowen and the other four walked up to the rostrum for interviews. Kacha Kacha Kacha lights kept flashing, and the five of them became the center of attention.
However, the five members of the Taishima University team were holed up in the home team's lounge and did not appear.
"Student Bai Xiaowen, congratulations on leading your team to victory over Taiwan University and advancing to the semifinals with a complete victory. What's your evaluation of Taiwan University's school team? "
Bai Xiaowen said, "This is the easiest round I've won since I entered the nationals."
The reporter immediately became excited. "You mean to say that Taiwan University is actually very weak? Weaker than the opponents in the first two rounds? "
Bai Xiaowen smiled. "You can't say that. If Taishima University's school team competes with other strong teams, they still have a chance to win. Unfortunately, they met me … You should understand what I mean. This is a restraint in terms of professional skills. "
After slaughtering his opponents in two rounds, Bai Xiaowen's anger had dissipated quite a bit. He did not want to ignore the facts and trample Taiwan University's school team to the ground, so he still said a few words of truth to save some face for Taiwan University.
"Can I ask what your goal in this nationals is?" The reporter did not manage to dig up any more juicy information, so he could only change the topic.
"Of course it's to win the championship. For me, not winning the championship is tantamount to failure, "Bai Xiaowen said seriously." I already said this goal in the first round of the knockout round, and it has never changed. "
"Then I wish you success in advance … Yan University is a very strong team."
"Thank you."
Yan University was indeed strong. It was not only strong because of Ouyang Heng, but also because of its overall strength. Every member of the elite class could hold their own. Not to mention, Yan University's school team also had another hero.
However, Bai Xiaowen's goal still did not change.
In the home team's lounge.
The atmosphere was stifling.
"This time … it's my fault. I'm sorry, everyone. I didn't tell you the cause of the incident with my brother Zhao Zhixiong." Zhao Zhilin was the first to express his apologies.
"…"
Ke Xin and the other two members were angry, but since Zhao Zhilin had said so, they could not say anything. They sighed and shook their heads, choosing to leave.
After the three of them left, only Zhao Zhilin and Jing Chengwen were left in the lounge.
"Zhilin, why didn't you use that item?" Jing Chengwen said, "The Bamboo Breaking Curse was something we obtained from our adventure in the Spirit Realm. There's a hint as proof, so it doesn't violate the rules."
Here was a description of the restrictions on the use of "items" in official competitions.
Contestants could use any spiritual item, but there was a prerequisite. The item had to be one's "spoils of war" or something that could be exchanged for merit points in the Spirit Realm. In short, it was something that the contestant had obtained through their own efforts.
If it was a trade or gift with another Awakened, it would be forbidden to use it. Violators would be immediately disqualified, and in serious cases, additional punishment would be imposed.
As for how to prove that the item was obtained through one's own efforts, it was very simple. The hint from the Spirit Realm's rules could prove everything.
Whenever a spoils of war card was drawn, the Spirit Realm's rules would prompt:
"You obtained XX."
When exchanging for merit points in the chosen faction, the Spirit Realm's rules would prompt:
"You exchanged for XX and spent XX merit points."
As for items obtained from trading with other Awakened, the Spirit Realm's rules would prompt:
"Trading with XX was successful. You obtained XX and lost XX."
For example, Xiang Hui's silver item, the Thunder Cast Claw Hook Spear, had been provided by Yan Xiaoxin to the officials before the competition. Therefore, it was not against the rules.
Only items had such a restriction. Equipment, food, and combat potions obtained from trading … did not have such a restriction.
Of course, once a contestant used these items in the Psionic Ability Training Ground, their usage would be depleted. Most items could not be replenished. Every time they were used, they would have less usage. Therefore, was it worth it to use them? Should they use them? They needed to weigh the pros and cons.
Zhao Zhilin shook his head and said, "If it was the third deciding match, I would definitely use it. But as you can see, the Calm Sea is so strong. Even if we use the Bamboo Breaking Curse, can we guarantee victory? Even if we win this match, what about the next two matches? "
Jing Chengwen sighed.
Zhao Zhilin continued, "We are Awakened. Regardless of whether it is a competition, the wilderness, or the Spirit Realm, we have to consider benefits as our top priority … In a situation where there are no benefits, I cannot accept using a precious item."
"But the enmity between you and Bai Xiaowen …"
