Global Demon Transformation.

Chapter 613 Feeling confident
Seeing Lin Feng's somewhat bewildered expression, the twelve people couldn't hide their smiles.

"You looked so eager just now, and now you don't want it even when it's offered to you?"

The woman, still holding the fire flag and extending it out, said with a smile.

Her gaze swept over Lin Feng, making no attempt to hide the playful intent in her eyes.

Their team consisted of only thirteen members, all of whom were rejected by other teams. They didn't even have a single peak ninth-rank player, let alone a king-level player. They had no chance of successfully defending their title against any challenge from any other team.

From the very beginning, they had already considered giving up.

Of course, according to the rules of the competition, they could ask other teams to help protect the flag, but they only have one fire flag, which they cannot give to the flag protector, so they have no bargaining power.

Which team would be willing to help for free?

Strong teams with real ability won't pay any attention to them; they'd rather they be eliminated so that the points pool can be higher.

Teams of average strength also lack the courage to help protect someone else's flag.

The scene was chaotic, with teams everywhere trying to challenge the flag. Finding a team willing to protect the flag within five minutes was extremely unlikely.

If they can advance, then no one in the third program will be eliminated.

Therefore, they rationally abandoned their unrealistic fantasies.

Rather than giving the flag to another team, it's better to give it to the Avengers.

At least, they have a good impression of the alliance.

"Thank you."

Lin Feng accepted the fire flag and thanked him.

Although he was certain of getting the flag, and could take on ten people by himself, saving time was still a great advantage.

"You're welcome. It was impossible to save it anyway."

"You're destined to become kings, I have high hopes for you."

"Raise my banner and become a king."

Amidst the blessings of the crowd, Lin Feng smiled and disappeared with the two fire flags.

At his location, the middle-aged man who had disappeared reappeared in front of his teammates, looking helpless and bitter.

Lin Feng hadn't expected the start to be so smooth. He captured a fire flag in less than a minute, while the other teams hadn't even started fighting yet.

When Lin Feng returned to the original arena, only Bu Zheng was there.

Lin Feng's appearance with two fire flags clearly surprised him.

"So fast?" Bu Zheng asked in surprise.

"They gave it to me directly," Lin Feng said with a smile.

Bu Zheng suddenly realized, but didn't say anything more.

Lin Feng lightly touched the ground, leaped into the air, flapped his spiritual wings, and floated in mid-air, looking around.

Just as he had predicted, all 55 teams, with the strong teams all challenging the weak teams, were no exception, even Alex's team, the Son of Light.

This is to save time.

All teams are racing against time to capture the flag as much as possible.

The more flags you have, the greater your advantage. Even if you're not confident of defending your title, you'll still have the resources to hire someone to protect your flags.

At the same time, this is also to avoid injury and to always maintain the best condition.

While the various teams were challenging each other, three teams stood out. A group of twenty people stood on the stage, neither challenging nor attacking the other teams.

These three teams are not weak; their members include many King-level players, with an average of more than five King-level players each.

Among the 55 teams, they are considered to be of medium to high strength.

That's why no one challenges them.

Weaker teams naturally wouldn't dare to challenge them.

Strong teams, in order to capture more flags, conserve their energy and won't challenge them at the beginning.

These three teams clearly intend to forgo the points rewards in order to ensure that they are not eliminated.

With their strength, they certainly have a very high chance of advancing.

After all, they only have one flag, and their strength is not weak. When not fighting, the team members are in their best condition. Challenging them for a flag is risky, the reward is too little, and it is time-consuming and laborious.

Compared to these three teams, Lin Feng's team stands out like a crane among chickens. Other teams, even if they're giving up, at least all of them are still honestly staying in the arena.

Only two of them remained. Originally, Lin Feng had run away, leaving only one person. The other eighteen people had also disappeared after Lin Feng vanished.

At this moment, Yu Qiao and the others dispersed and stood on various arenas, like enthusiastic spectators, quietly waiting for the performance to begin.

Lin Feng looked at the arena on his left, where Chen Dali's team was also facing challenges from other teams.

They are still a recognized strong team.

The team that Oni-Assassin Kitahara Sousuke belongs to.

Lin Feng knows at least ten Kings, and the rest are most likely Kings as well.

This team should consist entirely of champions, and there are two familiar faces among them: Chen Junhao and Zhao Zhou.

Faced with such a lineup, Chen Dali and his team had no hope of defending their title. It could be said that any one of the opponents could easily crush them and clear the level.

"Even though I knew I would be eliminated in the first round, this luck is just too bad."

"A team of only top-tier players, how do you win?"

"With this lineup, who would dare to protect the flag?"

"Fortunately."

Chen Dali and the others whispered among themselves, their words serious but their expressions relaxed.

"Let's start quickly."

Seeing that Chen Dali's side had not made any move, a blond young man reprimanded them in an unfriendly tone.

In his view, Alice's students were deliberately stalling for time.

With their strength, there's absolutely no need for them to consider things like fighting.

What puzzled him was why the other person looked so relaxed.

Have we given up hope?
"What's the rush?"

Chen Dali raised an eyebrow, somewhat annoyed. Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, he pulled out his own fire flag, leaped down, and landed behind the arena where Lin Feng was. He then slammed the fire flag into the stone surface, creating a loud bang.

"Damn it, they have no sportsmanship."

Chen Junhao's expression immediately darkened, and he cursed under his breath.

Without Lin Feng's consent, Chen Dali planted the fire flag directly on his arena. This was obviously pre-arranged, which explains why he wasn't nervous at all when facing their challenge and even had the mood to chat.

Protecting the flag right from the start, is this how the rules work?

What benefits would this bring to the Avengers?
Furthermore, to dare to defend the flag against such a recognized strong team, does that mean they don't take them seriously?

"Trying to protect the flag right from the start? Are you out of your mind?"

"Too arrogant!"

"Just plant the flag, what's there to be afraid of? The Avengers only have four kings!"

“Yun Kai and his three companions are no ordinary kings. Even if they succeed in the challenge, they will suffer considerable losses.”

"Don't forget Lin Feng and Bu Yuanlong. They definitely have King-level combat power. That means the Avengers have at least six King-level combat power. Even if we win, it won't be easy, and we might even lose six of our main forces."

Everyone was talking at once, and their faces were all grim.

They never expected to encounter such a difficult problem on their first attempt at the challenge.

Although they were furious and wanted to eliminate the Avengers, reality wouldn't allow them to do so.

Starting with a direct confrontation between two strong teams is not a smart choice.

It's important to understand that beating the Avengers doesn't mean much. The third project's match lasts five hours, and they will definitely face strong teams like Alex afterward. If they suffer losses or are in poor form, they will not only fail to earn any points, but they also have a very high chance of being eliminated.

Perhaps it was precisely because they knew their concerns that the Avengers dared to be so arrogant and fearless.

It wasn't just Chen Junhao and his group who were disgusted; five other teams were also affected.

After Chen Dali planted the flag, five figures holding fire flags leaped onto the arena where Lin Feng was, and planted their fire flags on the arena without hesitation.

Within just three minutes, a total of six teams chose to let the Avengers protect their flag.

The arena where Lin Feng is located now has eight fire flags.

A row of crimson banners attracted everyone's attention and elicited gasps of amazement.
