Zhou Naiyi, Ma Long, and Zuo Xiaotang were helpless. They had to toughen up at this moment. The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and everyone was waiting for the big shots to make a move. Did they really think Offee was easy to deal with? Her nickname is Blood Rose!
The first target of attack was always the weak point. If one could withstand someone else's attack, there might still be a chance to counterattack. But if Offee caught hold of a weakness, it would be a fatal blow.
Robbie, the Mad Lion, was even more arrogant, daring to insult Orient Loong God to his face.
As for Lomachenko, the Roaring Lord, and Milner, the Ghost Shadow, they were even more difficult to get along with. They would never tolerate a few weaklings standing in front of them.
One second... two seconds... three seconds...
Time ticked away, and the four top powerhouses in the second row remained motionless.
Five seconds... ten seconds...
Time continued to pass, and the people from Tianjing Mech Martial Arts Academy were still standing in front, while the powerhouses from the four super teams in the second row remained completely still. Greg was shocked. He knew that the captain had a good relationship with Li Hao, but this was just asking for trouble. If they really started fighting, no one would be able to protect them. They would be inviting the wrath of everyone.
Just as Greg was about to say something, Mo Yu had already stopped the vice captain. Greg finally realized the situation and looked around. Robbie had a smile on his face, even a hint of pride. Milner had no expression, as if he hadn't seen anything. The Roaring Lord just stared at Li Hao's back, his intentions unclear.
At this moment, Ma Long's breathing almost stopped. His forehead was covered in sweat, and he didn't know when his back had become wet. He was well aware of what was behind him.
More teams entered from behind, causing chaos. One group fought against another, and soon the entire team was defeated.
The hall echoed with the voice of Lu Donglei: "Zuma Team eliminated."
At this moment, the faces of Ma Long, Zuo Xiaotang, and the others turned pale. Zhou Naiyi and Wu Zang were already prepared for battle. At this moment, they understood why so many people were watching them.
This was no longer a matter of being smart or not. They were likely to be eliminated directly. Did they not have enough strength to dare to turn their backs on their competitors?
Li Hao also heard the commotion behind him, but he still smiled at Offee and the others. His gaze swept over Milner and Lomachenko, and in an instant, their bodies involuntarily tensed up.
Cang Gongtian and the others also looked at Li Hao. Was this the opponent that the North Carolina Alliance wanted to deal with?
The weak state of these few people was completely within their sight. These weaklings were just asking for death, weren't they?
Uxiya's gaze met Li Hao's for a moment, and her pupils suddenly contracted. Old Li revealed a friendly smile. This female classmate was quite beautiful.
No one in the third row moved, and the fourth row began to stir. It seemed that the big shots were not willing to bother with "small fries." Or rather, since they dared to occupy the first row and challenge the North Carolina Alliance, they would wait for Orient Loong God to solve it.
But what if someone took care of these small fries at this moment and stood in their place? And Orient Loong God didn't care?
It might even earn the admiration of Orient Loong God.
Fortune favors the bold, and there is always a chance!
Sure enough, a team came forward. It was the Maliya Team from the African region. They hesitated for a moment, but under the leadership of their captain, Kyle, they walked towards the front. The crowd became restless, and finally, someone couldn't help but show their face.
But before they could reach the front, Perkins turned around and looked at the approaching group. "Get lost!"
The group immediately froze, gritting their teeth and wanting to resist. But looking at Perkins' expression, they suddenly pointed ahead and said, "Why can they go, but we can't?"
This was not only Kyle's doubt, but also the doubt of a considerable number of people. Unfortunately, Perkins was not an encyclopedia, nor did he have a reason to explain it to them.
Depua from Prometheus laughed, "Try it and you'll know. How did such a stupid brain get in here?"
Kyle and the others were also in a difficult position. When they had just left, their positions were quickly taken by others, making it difficult for them to go back. Moving forward... it seemed that these top teams had no intention of making a move.
Just as they were about to grit their teeth and charge forward, the door opened.
At this moment, the entire hall fell silent, leaving only the sound of footsteps.
Orient Loong God from the North Carolina Alliance had arrived.
Orient Loong God, dressed in the black North Carolina Alliance battle suit, exuded an imposing aura without anger. With the terrifying kings of the North Carolina Alliance by his side, he entered the arena, and everyone blocking their way automatically stepped aside.
The absolute champion of USE - North Carolina Alliance.
In this mid-season tournament, only one spot was given to the North Carolina Alliance, so the competition was fierce. And the only substitute was a girl, but she was none other than the renowned top star of this generation - Ye Tong.
Although they seemed far away, the North Carolina Alliance team quickly approached. Kyle and the others didn't dare to block their way, let alone walk in front. They could only make way. At this moment, everyone's gaze was fixed on Orient Loong God.
Orient Loong God's footsteps didn't change, but it felt as if time had suddenly slowed down. In an instant, the entire hall seemed to be under the invisible pressure of several times the gravity.
This was the aura of the strongest champion from USE.Many people were expectant, looking forward to Chao Qinglong's move. Perhaps it wasn't even necessary, any random member from North Carolina Academy could wipe out the opposition.
One second... two seconds... three seconds...
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Chao Qinglong led his team to the front row on the right.
At this moment, a tidal wave of shock surged in everyone's hearts. Words could not describe their astonishment. Everyone knew the tradition of the mid-season competition: the left side was superior!
Chao Qinglong might not care about the small fry, but how could he tolerate them taking the upper hand?
On the side of Tianjing Mecha, everyone except Li Hao was completely stiff. This was the overwhelming aura from the champion team, North Carolina Academy. As peers, the members of North Carolina looked at them with strange eyes, all the pressure directly dumped on them.
The Maria team was in trouble. What should they do?
Should they go up or not?
Before they could make a decision, the last of the top ten teams appeared. It was the Dome Royal Military Academy from the Oceanic Region. As the ambitious leader of the new Five Tigers, Curtis looked straight ahead. When he saw that the front row was already full, his face immediately darkened.
Seeing that the opposing team was unknown, Curtis sneered and walked forward.
His place was not in the third row!
For the strong, what they needed was not an empty seat, but their own ranking.
Pompeii immediately recognized Tianjing Mecha and burst into laughter. These country bumpkins who had never seen the world dared to participate in the mid-season competition.
The Round Table Knights had voluntarily given up their seats. It was the trend of the times. How dare Tianjing Mecha take their place?!
Just then, the voice of Lu Donglei echoed in the hall, "I am Lu Donglei, the person in charge of this mid-season competition. In ten seconds, any team without a seat will be directly eliminated."
Although it was expected, some teams without seats were still hesitating. Curtis frowned slightly. Obviously, there was not enough time. He decisively took the last seat in the third row. Of course, after settling down, Curtis's gaze was fixed on Tianjing in front of him, his killing intent no longer concealed.
The other teams without seats were tragic. Before they could react, the time was up. Soldiers appeared and took away the team members without seats. Kyle and others were unwilling. They originally had seats. How did it turn out like this?
"It's unfair, this is unfair!" Although Kyle was held back, he was still roaring, "We are ranked thirty-five, we have the chance and the strength, this is totally unreasonable!"
The other team members also struggled desperately.
Lu Donglei's voice rang out again, but this time he had walked to the front of the hall, signaling the soldiers to let them go, "This is the first time I meet you all, I'll make an exception and explain once. First, misjudging the situation, second, indecisiveness, third, impotent rage, all are unforgivable!"
After saying that, he waved his hand.
The soldiers forcibly took the remaining people away. Those who dared to resist were immediately knocked down with a gun. Soon, the hall returned to calm.
Lu Donglei's gaze swept over the crowd, a friendly and harmless smile on his face, "Alright, it's finally quiet. You can relax a bit. I'm a very easy-going person. First of all, on behalf of the USE military, I welcome all of you who represent the top combat power of Earth to participate in this training camp."
Applause broke out in the hall. Finally, it could begin. No one cared about the losers.
"I am Lu Donglei, you can call me General Lu or Old Lu. There is another person in charge named Sazerac. We two will be responsible for the selection of this mid-season training camp. You may have noticed that this mid-season training camp is a bit different from the past. There are many surprises waiting for you. Our only goal is to select the strongest sixteen teams to compete for the highest honor of the S competition and to defend the dignity of Earth. So, elimination is not terrible. The possibility of casualties in this training may be a bit high. If you want to quit, do it as soon as possible. Once it starts, you may only be sent back in a box."
Lu Donglei looked at everyone with a smile on his face. His voice was not loud, but it could clearly reach every corner of the hall, as if he was speaking directly into everyone's ears.

Of course, no one would be scared off.
Lu Donglei knew this, of course. But being in this position, he still had to say what needed to be said. Since Sazerac was slacking off, it had to be him.
The people present didn't know much about this General Lu. Lu Donglei's gaze fell on North Carolina Academy. Chao Qinglong's momentum was steady, and he had made a huge improvement compared to last year. Not to mention the other team members, North Carolina Academy was a behemoth to the entire USE.
