338 The Most Intense Quarter-Finals!

The first round of the top eight was between the host, Eastern University, and Lingwu University, which Eastern University won cleanly.

In terms of strength, there was a gap between Lingwu, one of the top 20 universities, and Eastern University. Moreover, in its last round, Lingwu encountered a substantial obstacle from Shenzhen University.

In terms of overall strength, Shenzhen could have been better than Lingwu. However, they were new members of the top 20 universities. Still, Shenzhen had already created history after entering the top 16.

Hence, they had no burdens and dared to fight. They had created much trouble for Lingwu. After an exciting match, Lingwu won but also paid a heavy price. Three of their leading players had gotten injured to varying degrees.

Even though their team doctor was excellent, yesterday’s injuries still affected today’s game. As a result, they lost against Eastern University in less than 15 minutes.

Although Lingwu had lost, they did not feel dejected. After all, losing to the host, the most powerful contender for this year’s championship, was honorable.

At the end of the match, Lingwu’s team leader gave his blessings to Eastern University. “Baresi, it was a great honor to fight with you. I wish you all the best.”

Lingwu’s team leader smiled as he continued, “You guys won the match. We still feel proud even if we didn’t enter the top 8.”

Baresi, Eastern University’s team leader, responded like a gentleman, “Haha, thank you for your blessing. We will do our best. I wish you a fulfilling and happy life.”

Afterward, he exchanged a few more words with Lingwu’s team leader and led his team back to the exclusive VIP room. Although it was the VIP room, it was a place for Eastern University to watch the matches and study other teams.

There were 64 large screens allowing people to watch the competition from 64 angles. However, other teams could only see the images from eight angles. Some professional cameramen could capture the most valuable images of the competition.

“Kyoto is tough to handle with Moss and Bishop around.”

Moss and Bishop left a deep impression on Baresi after he watched the match between Kyoto and Aerospace.

Therefore, he dared not be negligent. As soon as the match ended, he led his team back to the VIP room to watch the match between Kyoto and Military University.

He would further study Kyoto through the match and make targeted arrangements for the game the day after tomorrow.

Seeing that his team members had already entered their “observation mode,” Baresi worriedly said, “When the match begins, pay special attention to Bishop and the other second-year team members, as well as Moss.

Besides that, he also had to focus on Military University’s performance to see what tactics and skills they would use against Kyoto.

“We must absorb the good parts and avoid similar problems in the next round.”

Seeing how serious Baresi was, the team members became severe. As the host, Eastern University had already developed a good habit of being rigorous and severe.

He was earnest about the competition and rigorous in studying his opponents. Even without Baresi’s reminder, the members of Eastern University started to pay more attention to the members of Kyoto.

Still, they paid most attention to Moss.

…

When the referee blew the whistle, the match between Eastern University and Lingwu ended.

Some of Kyoto’s team members could not help but shake their heads. They had wanted to see new things about Eastern University through this match but were disappointed.

As three of Lingwu’s leading players were injured, Eastern University won the game without hesitation. They displayed even fewer skills than in the match against Divine Farmer University.

They deliberately held back their strength, not wanting their opponents to know more.

“Eastern University is so lucky.” Seeing Lingwu’s situation, Benedict pouted.

Gavin stood up and said, “Luck has always been an essential element that affects competitions. We just have to do our best.” It was evident he was more concerned about the upcoming match.

“Team members, it’s our turn.” Bishop also stood up and stretched.

Looking around, he saw that his team members were in high spirits and full of confidence. They were ready to go out at any time. The corners of his mouth rose slightly.

“Excellent, this is what a defending champion team should look like,” Bishop praised. Then he waved and walked toward the arena.

…

When the Kyoto and Military University appeared in the ring a moment later, some audience members finally realized the highly anticipated quarter-finals were about to begin.

Although the members of both teams mostly had smiles on their faces, the spiritual power they released made the audience present, especially those in the front row, feel waves of surging tension.

Just as the imposing manner spread to every corner of the arena, Aurora’s rich and magnetic voice sounded, “Ladies and gentlemen, let’s give our warmest applause to Kyoto and Military University!

“Next, we will witness the most intense quarter-finals and see who will be the winner. However, no matter who wins, this match will become a classic in the exchange competition’s history!”

Boom! Boom! Boom! The sounds of 20 enormous military drums brought the arena atmosphere to new heights. Meanwhile, the participants on both sides assumed their formations.

Kyoto University still used its 3-4-3 formation they used against Aerospace. Surprisingly, Military University chose a 2-3-5 defensive formation.

After assuming their positions, a wave of heated discussions among the audience broke out.

“Although Kyoto University is still using a 3-4-3 formation, there are still some changes. Moss is in the middle row now.

“It seems Kyoto’s top priority is Moss’s tactical position.”

“With Moss and Bishop together, Kyoto will have enough confidence.”

“Military University’s formation seems to be extra cautious today. It seems they’re also afraid of Moss’s skills.”

“Considering Military University’s formation, they’re already prepared for Moss’s skills. As a result, it will be tough for Kyoto to use their tactics in the next match.”

…

As everyone discussed, someone shouted, “Look. Kyoto is making the first move.”

As soon as the person finished their sentence, every audience member held their breaths and focused on Kyoto’s team members, their eyes filled with anticipation and passion.
