The current score for the Crowns was 66 points, 9 points away from the Banners.

This meant that if they wanted to win the championship, the Crowns had to score above 50 points in the next round and surpass the battle flag by 9 points. As for the battle flag, it only needed to win the crown step by step and ensure that their score for this round was above 41 points.

The difference was huge.

In the evening, before the battle began, the Crowns team held a meeting and agreed that the chances of winning were slim.

Deng Yunjie looked at the recording of this match and shook his head helplessly.

“If we can’t solve Li Xiaoyin’s problem, then we definitely won’t be able to widen the gap in the arena. Even if we can solve all her teammates, she will definitely be able to stand until the fifth round. At the very least, she can obtain 15 points for Banner… unless any of you can defeat her.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone looked at each other.

After a few seconds of silence, Tang Liu suddenly raised his hand and shouted.

“Leave it to me. I’ll use my extreme speed to push her off the stage!”

“You can’t defeat her.” Deng Yunjie waved his hand in refusal.

Tang Liu was indignant, “Who said that? No matter how powerful her attacks are, I can still dodge them. As long as I find an opportunity, I can defeat her!”

“Then we’ll see.”

Deng Yunjie brushed it off and turned to look at Zhou Jing.

“I know that you defeated four Class S core players yesterday. Actually, you haven’t reached your limit yet. Are you confident in defeating Li Xiaoyin?”

Everyone also looked at him. Even Tang Liu stopped fooling around. He was curious and unconvinced.

Zhou Jing pondered for a while before shaking his head helplessly, “I won’t lie to everyone. I’m really not confident. Li Xiaoyin’s strength far exceeds our level.”

Although they knew that this would be the answer, everyone’s hearts could not help but sink.

After yesterday’s battle, Zhou Jing was already regarded by everyone as the trump card of the arena tournament. Even he did not have the confidence, so there was really nothing he could do about the arena tournament.

Tang Liu scratched his head and couldn’t help but ask, “Isn’t everyone saying that you and Li Xiaoyin are good friends? Can you let her go easy on you?”

Hearing this, Zhou Jing’s expression turned solemn.

“That’s impossible! Not to mention that Xiaoyin won’t do that, even if she wants to, I won’t ask her. Even if we’re friends, we have to rely on our own abilities in the arena. If we can’t win, so be it. There’s nothing to be embarrassed about if we lose. We don’t play these tricks.”

“It’s just a suggestion. Why are you so serious…”

Tang Liu muttered.

At this moment, Li Yun knocked on the table and said seriously as well.

“Zhou Jing is right. The purpose of the academy holding these competitions is to build a stage for everyone to compete actively. The outcome of the faculty is not that important. What’s really important is that the students grow in the competition and have a chance to perform. We can’t cheat for the honor of the faculty. This goes against the original intention of the academy to establish the faculties to compete.

It’s just like how as long as we mess up tomorrow and let the Banners farm points through us, our points can also increase. Our total points will easily exceed 50, and we can win the Gems to become the second… But we will never do that! Even if we want to be second place, we have to work hard to obtain it.

It’s impossible for us to hope to get high points by messing around. Even if we fight hard and might even lose the position of second place, we won’t hesitate. This is the spirit that the faculty wants.”

Everyone perked up and nodded. Their low morale was boosted.

There was nothing to be afraid of if they lost the competition. They just had to do their best. The academy had two years of courses. Everyone would grow up in the future, and there would be more opportunities for competitions. Things would not stay the same.

However, it would be too embarrassing if they lost due to their players and the strategies used.

Zhou Jing nodded to himself. He had such concerns just now.

If the Crowns wished to be victorious and chose to be spineless cowards to feed the opponent, then he would have to seriously consider changing faculties.

This was a right that all freshmen had. It was a two-way choice to begin with.

And he quite liked the attitude of the Crown now.

It seemed good to stay in this faculty and be Li Xiaoyin’s opponent…

Although he and Xiaoyin were best friends and she would definitely be willing to protect him, if he forced himself to her side, even if he could cozy up to her, he would be overshadowed by her glory.

Since the Crown faculty did not have a backer for him, he would be the backer. Even if he could not take charge of everything smoothly, it was still a beneficial experience.

“The logic of ‘If I can’t defeat him, I’ll join them’, I won’t use it this time round.”

Zhou Jing took a deep breath and looked around at his teammates.

He knocked on the table and attracted everyone’s attention.

“I’m not sure about Li Xiaoyin, but leave that Lei Wanjun to me. I can try.”

“Alright!”

Deng Yunjie gave him a thumbs up.

This person was also a trump card of the Banners. Although he was not as strong as Li Xiaoyin, he still had overwhelming combat strength. It was also difficult to deal with him. He wondered if Zhou Jing could defeat him.

If he lost, the Crown would not be able to steadily take on the crushing combat strength of the other Class S core members.

Now that Zhou Jing had taken the initiative to challenge him, he was happy to see it happen.

At this moment, someone spoke faintly.

“Then I’ll set an example as well. If you guys wish to knock Li Xiaoyin down, let me go.”

Everyone looked over with different expressions.

The person who spoke was called Ding Qiu. He was the first specially selected student of the Crown Faculty this year and was also one of the Class S core players for the arena. He had an energy release superpower and could control the power of explosions. He was also extremely lethal.

To a certain extent, his destructive power was not much lower than Li Xiaoyin’s.

However, his greatest weakness was that he could not completely avoid the explosion himself, causing his shortcomings to be too obvious.
