Chapter 270 Lively
"Sigh, what a pity. The second time is over just like that." Lin Qi's straight back suddenly relaxed, and he leaned back in his chair, completely losing the excited look he had just had.

Lieutenant Zapp glanced at Lynch, puzzled. This Captain Lynch was quite an eccentric. The group of people gathered here had different thoughts, but the current situation was already quite clear.

Those whose students remained in the training ground were very satisfied; they were there to see what kind of results their students would ultimately achieve.

For some students whose performance is not up to par, the homeroom teachers can only look at other students' performance and make their own evaluations. However, it's not a bad thing to be able to see so many young and energetic students on such a public platform. Besides, they also want to see what makes students in other classes so that they can use it to encourage their own students.

Regardless of the type, the homeroom teachers generally have limited attention spans when it comes to other students. For example, Captain Stark from Class Two diligently observed and recorded every single student in his class from beginning to end. Lynch even glimpsed him once while passing by from behind and saw that he had created a dedicated file for each student, recording a considerable amount of data. That's truly... incredibly responsible.

Zou Shangwei from Class One, on the other hand, represents the opposite extreme. He only sees his own students, and even when he glances at others, it's with a biased perspective. He's more concerned with the final results his star students can achieve in this competition.

However, this captain, one of only three in the combat individual department, differed from the other two, and also from most of the first-year class advisors. He genuinely watched the competition seriously, not just focusing on any particular student or department; he treated it as a comprehensive event, even though everyone knew it was just a small-scale intra-school competition.

He didn't even pay much attention to the people leading his own group, but was particularly interested in the teams led by Jiang Hui and Huo Li. Whenever he saw these two groups clash, he was more excited than the two people's homeroom teachers.

He praised without reservation, and when he criticized, he criticized more harshly than anyone else. His passionate speech made the nearby combat instructors feel as if they were watching a holy ball game.

Oh, the Retro Holy Ball is a sport that originated in interstellar space hundreds of years ago. It is said that in the old human culture it was called Cuju or 'football' and once occupied a very high position in the history of human sports. It was once named 'Holy Ball' by some enthusiastic fans. The professionals involved in the restoration also thought the name 'Holy Ball' sounded nice, so to celebrate its rebirth, they gave it a new name, 'Retro Holy Ball,' giving it new vitality.

While none of them personally liked the Sacred Orb, a few people around them did, and some had even been seen acting fanatically. Sacred Orb fans.

Right now, Zapp feels that Captain Lynch has a similar feeling... so I wonder who Captain Lynch actually favors?

Given the current situation, it seems quite obvious who will win and who will lose.

Lynch was unaware that one of his colleagues was curious about his unusual star-like state, and he remained carefree. Unfortunately, Jiang Hui and Holly's second face-to-face confrontation ended inexplicably.

How can these two be so calm? The arrow is already on the bowstring, yet they're still trying to hold back. Should we say they're too rational, or just too patient...?

Lin Qi also witnessed the entire confrontation between the two. In fact, he knew in his heart that both of them had undoubtedly made the best choice, but watching it made him feel a sense of frustration.

Although he admired the calm and self-assured Jiang Hui more, he had to admit that he also felt sorry for that little guy Holly.

He faced his formidable enemy time and again, yet each time he remained oblivious, unaware of where he had fallen. In the end, due to the circumstances, he was forced to let his greatest foe go.

Put yourself in their shoes... When the match is over and he watches the replay on the school network and realizes he did something incredibly stupid, wouldn't he be furious? However, a competition is a competition. Participants are in the thick of it, and their perspectives and choices naturally differ from those of onlookers. Their words and actions often define the competition itself, and even a slight mistake can affect the outcome. Therefore, there's no such thing as knowing beforehand.

These experiences will later become nourishment for Holly's growth, and perhaps even his chances to survive life-or-death battles time and time again.

So Lynch was actually quite happy to see these freshmen make mistakes.

He actually felt a little sorry for Jiang Hui and the others. Besides their own skill, R186's luck was just too good. The team members either improved or complemented each other, making their teamwork almost divinely aided. Therefore, this team had few rivals in the vast arena, which limited the growth of each member individually.

He glanced at the two people who had already been assigned to Linmu, but then thought again that it wasn't true... It wasn't that the entire R186 team was lucky; perhaps most of their bad luck had just fallen on one particular person.

This girl is incredibly unlucky. Not only was she inexplicably seriously injured, but her movements are now completely restricted. Although her ranking shouldn't change, she'll probably be stuck there from now on, unable to participate in this most intense round of battle, which is quite a pity.

As the large screen broadcast the scene, the audience could clearly see that the most intense and concentrated battle within the training ground was about to begin.

The three strongest groups among the remaining participants in the training ground have gathered together, either voluntarily or automatically, and are about to begin the final battle.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the final rankings for the top ten will be determined soon. After this, those who make it into the top ten are guaranteed to stay until the end, while those who don't will never have another chance. It's incredibly nerve-wracking.

--------------

"It really is L11!" Even though Zhou Xiuwen trusted Jiang Hui's abilities, he was still shocked by the current situation.

How did Jiang Hui know that the old site of L11 was here, and even pinpointed the exact direction...? Could it be that she memorized everything she did on the way here?

However, after the second round of resupply, the map and energy points disappeared, and they could no longer locate themselves or the enemy. Furthermore, most of the terrain and topography within the training grounds were similar, and even those with slight variations were largely indistinguishable.

If they hadn't seen the trench marks they had just made, they wouldn't have been able to confirm that this was the original location of L11, or how Jiang Hui had identified L11's location from three kilometers away.

Huan Xian glanced silently at the messy old L11 area, and after a long while said, "Alright, let's hurry, they'll be here soon."
