The entire team from Martial Saint Academy.
They were undoubtedly the true stars of today!
Even though there were still matches to come,
No one could steal their spotlight.
Because
They had just taken down the number one academy in the country and successfully advanced!!
The weakest academy had defeated the so-called strongest academy!
This was huge.
In a way,
It was as if they had already claimed the "championship"!
Now,
No one dared to underestimate Martial Saint Academy, nor would they look down on Vincent Fox's team again.
Even the betting websites had significantly slashed Martial Saint Academy's odds...
When the day's matches ended,
As Vincent and the others were leaving the arena, quite a few young spectators caught sight of them and screamed as they rushed forward, seemingly trying to get their autographs!
Just one match,
And they had already gained a pretty sizable fanbase!
Back at the hotel,
The director of teaching was feeling extremely generous and booked the most luxurious private room to treat everyone to dinner!
"The principal said you've all done a great job! You must be well rewarded today! Eat as much as you want, and when we return to school, there will be additional rewards waiting for you!!" As soon as the director finished speaking,
The room erupted in cheers!
"Long live the principal, long live the director!"
Zoe Harper and a few other students shouted excitedly.
The whole room quickly became lively.
Soon after,
One exquisite dish after another was brought in, completely stunning the students who usually ate at the cafeteria. Their appetites instantly went through the roof.
The director also opened two bottles of fine wine to drink with the teachers.
To avoid affecting the next day's matches, the students naturally stuck to soft drinks.
Everyone in the room was in high spirits.
Vincent was in a great mood too.
He had just checked his betting account and saw that he now had over 3.9 million in winnings!
This was the result of the 500,000 he bet on Martial Saint Academy to win.
An eightfold return!
After deducting a few thousand in platform fees, Vincent still pocketed over 3.4 million from this bet...
Although Vincent didn't really care much about money,
Winning was still a satisfying feeling.
And this betting platform had proven quite reliable. After he requested a withdrawal, the bank sent him a confirmation text within half an hour.
Vincent's bank account now had over five million.
Just one match.
And his net worth had multiplied several times over!
After dinner, back in his hotel room, Vincent's phone suddenly buzzed again with a message from that same unknown number.
"Vincent, you're amazing! Keep going, the championship is yours!"
Vincent frowned, ignored it, and went to shower and sleep.
The next day's match.
With Vincent and Autumn Summer leading the team, they easily secured another win and advanced further.
After all, they had already beaten War God Academy, so these ordinary schools were hardly a challenge.
The only thing Vincent found disappointing was that, due to their overwhelming performance in the previous match, Martial Saint Academy's odds on the betting sites had already dropped to 0.6.
What did that mean?
It meant betting 100,000 would now only return 160,000 if they won.
Clearly.
Those sly bookmakers weren't stupid.
With odds that low, Vincent completely lost interest in betting...
On the third day.
With Vincent still on the field, Martial Saint Academy triumphed again and officially broke into the top ten!
With this,
Vincent's initial goal was now complete.
(Top ten teams would receive the right to enter a currently sealed Forbidden Zone.)
From here on,
Vincent had another goal.
That was to win the championship, while maintaining a godlike win streak and ultimately unlocking the "Godlike Achievement"!
So far, in every match, Vincent had scored over seven kills without dying even once.
He was looking forward to it.
What kind of skill reward would the King's Canyon system give him once he achieved the Godlike title?
Soon enough.
It was the fourth day.
Today was the Top Ten Showdown.
And also the day of the finals.
At nine in the morning, all the spectators were already seated, with not a single empty spot left.
The host took the stage and shouted, "Today marks the final day of the competition! The champion team will be crowned today... Now, please join me in giving a thunderous round of applause to welcome our top ten teams!!" Clap! Clap!
In an instant.
The arena exploded in applause.
"Regal Academy! Regal Academy!"
"Skycloud Academy, you've got this! The championship is yours!"
"Karlan Academy for the win! Karlan Academy for the win!"
The cheers from the audience shook the sky...
Countless spectators were shouting and cheering for the schools they supported.
Vincent could hear it.
There were quite a few people.
Loudly chanting "Go Martial Saint Academy!"
"The top ten teams are all present!"
The host's voice boomed again. "Now, will all team captains please step forward to draw lots for your opponents!!"
Autumn Summer and the other team captains immediately stepped forward to begin the draw.
The drawing was divided into two rounds.
First, they drew five teams to select matchups, then those five teams would draw their opponents.
Soon,
The results were revealed.
First Match: Regal Academy vs. Karlan Academy!
Result: Regal Academy won and advanced!
Second Match: Central State University vs. Skycloud Academy!
Result: Skycloud Academy won and advanced!
Third Match: South Sea Academy vs. Martial Saint Academy!
Result: Martial Saint Academy won and advanced!
Fourth Match…
It had to be said,
Any school that made it into the top ten had genuine strength.
South Sea Academy played it very safe, and their students were quite strong, killing Benjamin Tanner and the others several times.
Even Autumn Summer was killed once.
Unfortunately, they ran into Vincent, this walking cheat code. In the end, Vincent wiped out their entire team in one wave. Otherwise, South Sea Academy probably could've kept going...
By noon,
The top five teams were decided.
The first match in the afternoon was Regal Academy vs. Skycloud Academy.
Both schools were among the most prestigious in the country, and their strength and foundations were very evenly matched.
In the end, Regal Academy narrowly clinched the win.
What surprised Vincent was that,
From the very first match, the female captain of Regal Academy never used her hero's gift. Even when facing Skycloud Academy, she still didn't activate it... It seemed her talent must be something extraordinary!
Martial Saint Academy had incredible luck.
In the first afternoon round, they got a direct pass.
Soon,
The top three schools were confirmed: Regal Academy, Eastgate University, and Martial Saint Academy!
