Chapter 397: Unfair! What About Me?

"It's happening! It's happening!"

"The match-ups are about to be announced!!"

At this moment, all eyes were glued to the screen!

Buzz!!

The massive projection screen was instantly filled with interlacing beams of light, which eventually formed a table that floated into view.

Wow!!

As soon as the first match-up appeared, the audience erupted into a frenzy of noise!

"What the hell!?"

"Oh my god! Am I dreaming?"

"What is the official thinking?"

"Oh no! The first match is Dragon Empire Team VS Holy Light Empire Royal Team!!"

"..."

That's right!

The moment the first match-up appeared.

All the spectators clearly saw the match-up information!

Dragon Empire Panda Team VS Holy Light Empire Royal Team!!

Damn it!!

What the hell is going on!?

The championship battle was happening early!?

Forget the spectators.

Even Princess Saint Luni in the VIP section was momentarily stunned.

She hadn't expected to face the Dragon Empire team this early in the quarterfinals.

"Sister..."

Beside her, Saint Lucy looked at her sister in shock.

"Don't worry, we have the killer move that Cathy teacher gave us!"

"Besides, we've prepared our own trump card! No need to be afraid!"

Saint Luni quickly regained her composure after the initial shock.

She genuinely didn't think this was a big deal.

If she hadn't had Cathy's guidance and help, she might have been very anxious.

Because after seeing how Ling Zhan single-handedly took down forty people from the overwhelmingly powerful Free Federation team, no one would want to face this monstrous non-specialist.

But now it was different.

Aside from the Holy Light Empire's own trump card, they had another card up their sleeve that gave Princess Saint Luni complete peace of mind.

And that was Cathy's help.

As for how she would help...

Tomorrow on the battlefield, everyone would be in for a big surprise.

...

...

"We're actually facing the Holy Light Empire this early..."

The Dragon Empire team members weren't too fazed.

They had gained immense confidence in Ling Zhan's combat power from the recent matches.

In fact...

To be a bit cocky, they already felt the championship was in the bag.

Of course...

They knew popping champagne early could lead to disaster, so they only dared to think this secretly.

Meanwhile, the other teams in the quarterfinals.

Seeing these two powerhouse teams clash early, they couldn't help but rejoice.

"Great! This is a relief! I didn't want to face that non-specialist anyway!"

"Same here, but I didn't want to face the Holy Light Empire either!"

"If I had to choose, I'd rather face the Holy Light Empire. At least Princess Saint Luni is a saintess of the Light Church, with a compassionate heart, and might give us a chance to surrender!"

"You're not wrong. Ling Zhan showed no mercy to the Free Federation team because of deep animosity between their nations. If I were him, I'd do the same!"

"..."

The rest of the quarterfinal match-ups.

Were as follows...

Undead Empire VS Beastman Court.

Ross Empire VS Dark Night Empire.

Amethyst Empire VS Dwarf Empire.

But no one cared about those match-ups.

Everyone's focus was on tomorrow's first match!

Because to the spectators, the winner of tomorrow's first battle would likely be the champion of the team competition!

What a twist!

No one expected the Global Beast Tournament officials to pull this off.

But for the spectators, it was exhilarating and thrilling.

"Alright, let's go! Time to rest up for tomorrow's championship match!"

"I wonder what kind of trump card the Holy Light Empire has to deal with that monster Ling Zhan..."

"Can't wait, can't wait..."

Tens of thousands of spectators left the colossal arena with high expectations.

The Dragon Empire team also began to leave.

Dean Zhou Hongfu arrived at the exit early, waiting for the team.

"Haha! Dean, tomorrow we can practically declare the championship ours!"

"Yes! It's been so long since we've won the team competition—this time, we'll turn it around and take it!"

"If my sister sees me standing on the championship podium, she'll be over the moon..."

"..."

Perhaps because they were so happy.

Or perhaps because Ling Zhan was so strong.

Several team members started voicing their thoughts aloud.

They expected the always kind Dean Zhou Hongfu to gently remind them not to get too complacent.

But instead, the team saw that the old dean wore a grave expression.

"Come here, I need to talk to you," Zhou Hongfu said with a frown, his voice serious.

The team was puzzled.

They didn't understand why the dean looked so serious.

When everyone gathered around Zhou Hongfu.

He spoke in a low voice: "Ling Zhan, Li Zhaoge, everyone... I hate to dampen your spirits, but I must mention..."

"That Corrupt Witch, Cathy, has openly given the Holy Light Empire a trump card..."

"Tomorrow's battle may not go smoothly. Don't celebrate too soon, and be sure to approach it with caution!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

The team erupted in surprise!

"Dean Zhou, that's not fair! How could the Witch do this?"

One of the girls protested in anger.

"Yeah... It's hardly an honorable win for the Holy Light Empire!"

The others voiced their discontent.

"Oh? What about me?"

Suddenly.

A soft, alluring voice interrupted them.

Everyone froze.

Slowly turning around.

They saw three tall, graceful figures standing behind them!

And those three figures...

Were none other than the Corrupt Witch and the two princesses of the Holy Light Empire!

This...

Whoosh!!

In that instant, all the team members instinctively backed up behind Dean Zhou Hongfu.

But Ling Zhan remained calm, locking eyes with the Witch.

Li Zhaoge, too, fixed her cold gaze on the seemingly innocent, but clearly seductive, Princess Saint Luni.

"Go on, what about me?"

Unlike during the match.

Cathy was now dressed in surprisingly casual attire.

A pair of tight white jeans paired with a white T-shirt, her light pink hair tied into a high ponytail, giving her an unexpectedly youthful vibe.

Her exquisitely beautiful face was hidden behind sunglasses.

No one had expected the usually disheveled Corrupt Witch to suddenly start dressing up like this.

Faced with her second question.

The once indignant team members now fell silent, quickly lowering their heads in fear.
