Xu Zhi looked away after staring at her for a few seconds. For some reason, she felt that the way the girl looked at her was a little subtle.

She could understand curiosity, as many people were curious about her now, but the way she looked at her was different from the simple curiosity of others. Xu Zhi always felt that her eyes carried a certain sense of familiarity that made Xu Zhi feel strange.

It's not that she is familiar with the other person, but that the other person looks like she has seen her somewhere.

It's so weird.

After Xu Zhi retracted his gaze, he poked Su Ran's shoulder and asked quietly, "What's the name of that particularly conspicuous light on the left? Which academy is it from?"

When Xu Zhi asked this, Su Ran knew who she was talking about.

After all, it is hard not to know about such an obvious external manifestation of the [Light] attribute.

"Jiang Qing, the core of Lingzhou Guangming Academy."

Xu Zhi just thought Lingzhou sounded familiar when she heard Su Ran continue to explain to her, "Lingzhou Guangming Academy is the leader in this Guangming Academy Civil War. They are also the favorites to win the league championship. Many people predict that the final will be between them and Tianxin Association or Yingtian City."

After saying that, Senior Sister Su Ran, who usually doesn't talk much, couldn't help but sigh, "She's very beautiful, isn't she? She doesn't look like a human being at all."

Xu Zhi nodded: "It is indeed very beautiful."

"They are incredibly strong. They haven't lost a single match in Guangmingyuan. Some people say that the reason Yingtian won the championship last time was because Jiang Qing didn't join the team at that time."

Shu Yushan heard the conversation between the two and added, "If we had Junior Sister during the civil war, our ranking would definitely move up a bit, but it's hard to say whether we could defeat them. It might be difficult."

"Is he that powerful?" Xu Zhi was a little surprised. He could even make his usually confident teammates become less confident. It seemed that he was really strong.

"I think they're a little stronger than Yingtian this year, but who knows?"

Shu Yushan shrugged. "This year's situation is a bit strange. Who knows what changes might come."

Xu Zhi nodded in understanding. She hadn't watched much of the opening ceremony performances, having been absorbed in listening to her teammates' gossip. She also understood that this year, from the outside world's perspective, three teams were the favorites to win the championship:

Lingzhou Guangming Academy, Yingtian City College, Wenyuan Tianxin Club.

These teams are generally considered by the outside world to be able to steadily enter the top ten:

Liancheng Guangming College, Sangluo City College, Hejiang City College.

The competition for the remaining seats was quite fierce. Everyone listed a bunch of colleges that had a high probability of breaking into the top ten, but they were not as stable as the first six.

The six cities of [Yingtian], [Lingzhou], [Liancheng], [Wenyuan], [Sangluo] and [Hejiang] have always been among the top ten cities in the rankings. These six cities have the right to speak and the best resources on this continent, which naturally leads to a certain degree of "ranking monopoly".

Liancheng City College is actually also one of the top ten favorites, but its performance in the previous session was slightly inferior to Liancheng Guangming College, so most media did not rank it ahead of Liancheng Guangming College this time.

After the opening ceremony, Xu Zhi had basically gotten to know all the colleges that could be considered rivals. Of course, it was her predecessors who enthusiastically took her to guide other teams, and she got to know these people one-sidedly.

The teammates seemed to be subtly dissatisfied with the fact that although their team was a recognized "powerhouse" and a top ten favorite, it was not the favorite to win the championship. Xu Zhi could fully understand this mentality. If everyone believed that "we are not championship material", she would feel that her teammates were a little bad. After all, it was enough that she was the only one who was playing badly.

Who doesn’t have a youthful spirit?

Even someone like her who came from another world felt that coming first was definitely better than coming second.

The opening ceremony draw was not what Chen Min expected. The top ten favorite teams were almost not divided into the same team. Naturally, Ji Muge got his wish and played in the first game.

After a few days of rest after the opening ceremony, the finals will officially begin.

Countless spectators were looking forward to the day. In order to respond to the audience's expectations and, of course, to increase the popularity, the event team arranged many "heavyweight" competitions directly on the first day.

The six top teams were also arranged in different time periods on the first day, and even all of them were in the official main live broadcast room, with Xiaoxiao and Dianfeng Ge as the commentators. It is said that the advertising fees in the live broadcast room were sold at a sky-high price that day.

In the finals, each team does not need to confirm in advance who will play in this game, which members the opponent will play in different stages, and the opponent's extraordinary level and extraordinary ability are all part of the final game. Compared with the group stage, the finals are undoubtedly more favorable to big cities.

During the meeting the day before the main competition, Xi Min specifically asked Xu Zhi if she wanted to go on the court to play. Xu Zhi didn't care and just said that if Xi Min felt it was necessary, she could be arranged to go up and have a try.

If it's not necessary, she would rather sit on the bench.

After all, their first opponent was just a group stage team, and their ranking was only in the lower middle of the teams that advanced from the group stage, so there was really no need to be on high alert.

Xi Min nodded when he heard this: "If nothing unexpected happens, in tomorrow's match, Tongzhou Shu Yushan, you two have to win the 1v1, is that okay?"

The two nodded: "No problem."

Then she looked at Xu Zhi and said, "Xu Zhi, Ji Muge, Tong Zhou, Shu Yushan, Qiu Hou, the five of you go in for the team fight."

"After you go up, the three of you will quickly deal with the other party. Qiu Hou will assist you and protect Xu Zhi at the same time. Xu Zhi does not need any command and should try not to use his supernatural powers."

"You just go up there and pretend to do it, okay?"

Xu Zhi understood. It was just an exhibition match. She was very good at being the "boss" who led the team.

She nodded: "I understand."

Xi Min's idea is easy to understand. He hides Chu Xiaoyue, doesn't use healers in team battles, and rushes in at the beginning, focusing on going all out against a player who has no backup energy.

Of course, it was the others who gave their all, because Xu Zhi was the one who went up there to be the boss.

It gives the outside world the illusion that "I am hiding something" and that Xu Zhi is really just gilding himself.

So gloomy!

Chu Xiaoyue simply nodded in agreement with this arrangement. If it were another extraordinary being with the same powerful talent and strength as Chu Xiaoyue, he might think, "If I am allowed to play, I can directly win the game with a series of five points in a 1V1 match, so why not give me the opportunity to perform?"

But Chu Xiaoyue would never do that.

"Well, that's it for now. I've sent you the team's information. Take a good look at it and plan your battle plans for tomorrow."

When facing such a team, Xi Min and the coaching staff will not teach them what to do. They will only assist them and correct some overly outrageous ideas. For the rest, they will try to let the players think for themselves at this stage, which can also be regarded as a kind of experience.
