1703 Second Secret Weapon!
Lin Yuan nodded. He did not make a promise but just emphasized again, “I will do all I can!”
Liu Yifan took a deep breath and replied, “The general is allowed to use one precious weapon during Capture the General. This is part of the rules. You have to remember this! Since you chose to become the general, the team will do its best to assist you before the group battle. You can pick your three teammates. According to the opponent’s strength, I will step in to help you if Qian Yu participates. I’ll also do all I can to protect you.”
Liu Jie became naturally worried when Lin Yuan volunteered to be the general.
As per the rules, Liu Jie would only be able to help Lin Yuan once. But if he participated in Capture the General, he would not be able to participate in the group battle.
However, Lin Yuan had voluntarily put himself in danger.
As his retainer, Liu Jie hated himself for not being able to do his duty of being and fighting by Lin Yuan’s side.
Nonetheless, he could do nothing about this because those were the rules.
Zong Ze and Gao Feng were also fearful for Lin Yuan’s safety, but their thoughts greatly differed from those of Liu Jie.
Both of them felt that Lin Yuan was indeed the best candidate because he was one of the rare healing-type spirit qi professionals.
He could heal himself and even recover his own spiritual power. As such, he would be able to take care of himself during battle.
Even after the three rounds of Capture the General, Lin Yuan would still be in optimal condition.
This would be crucial for the third round.
Moreover, Liu Yifan had said that Lin Yuan could choose his own teammates and would step in if Qian Yu participated.
If the opponent sent out experts who were favored by royalty, they also had their own disciples of royalty.
Thus, before the one-on-one fight, the other teammates would be able to protect Lin Yuan and ensure that he did not expend too much spiritual power before that.
After a decision was made, Liu Yifan took a step back while Lin Yuan stepped forward to stand next to Liu Yifan.
Liu Yifan and Lin Yuan’s actions allowed the audience on Star Web to realize that Black was going to take up the responsibility of being general.
Although the audience had never seen how Black looked behind his mask, there was proof that he was only around 18 years old.
Regardless of how they felt about Black, many members of the audience started shedding tears at this point.
A young man should be attending school. Yet, here he was, holding up the Radiance Federation’s honor and pride with his life.
If anyone there was anyone that still assumed that the Freedom Federation and Radiance Federation were going to take part in a friendly match, they realized the truth once Li Yang mentioned the Major Federation Meeting.
The Major Federation Meeting struck a chord with every person in the main world.
After every Major Federation Meeting ended, there would be a worldwide mourning to grieve for the Radiance Envoys and Radiance Knights that had lost their lives and return their bodies to their families.
The Major Federation Meeting not only allowed the federations to demonstrate their power but would also be an elegy for heroes.
Hence, from the moment Li Yang mentioned the Major Federation Meeting, every audience member knew that the impending battle was going to be a bloodbath.
Lake Spirit: I used to really like watching battles. The fights on Star Web are always exciting, and I used to spend a lot of time watching the recordings in the Celestial Stairway’s video library! But for some reason, I don’t have the courage to watch the upcoming fight.
Sacred Heart White Tiger: Did Black just take a step forward to volunteer to be the general? Oh my God! My heart is beating so quickly! Black has to win!
Person of Action: The general is the most important role in Capture the General. Why didn’t the four disciples of royalty step up instead of Black? I can’t help but feel like Lord Liu Yifan would be a better choice.
Blooming Centerfield: I don’t think you guys need to overthink this. Just pray and give your moral support. I don’t dare to watch this battle either, but I have to. I have to remember how these heroes used their lives to secure the Radiance Federation’s glory!
On the Freedom Federation’s side, it was not a discussion like it had been with the Radiance Federation team.
Rather, Qian Yu decided everything on his own.
At first, he wanted Yan Ling to be the general.
She was one of the Freedom Federation’s elite and did not think much of the Radiance Federation’s young generation. After all, she had not experienced much hardship in her life and was accustomed to a life where she was beloved by three members of royalty.
He said to Yan Ling, “Yan Ling, your power shines when you’re working with Cai Huo and You Changjian. Only the first round of Capture the General guarantees that the three of you will be together. But if Cai Huo and You Changjian participate in the first round, they won’t be able to participate in the group battle even if you manage to kill the silver mask-wearing boy. Without them, you won’t be able to demonstrate your abilities.”
Qian Yu was far from happy.
An anvil of pressure had landed on his shoulders after the member of royalty who favored him had publicly tried to recruit Lin Yuan. He was terrified that he would fall out of the Goddess of Mercy’s graces.
Hence, he brought his emotions into his conversation with Yan Ling.
What he meant to say was that Yan Ling was the most useful when she teamed up with You Changjian and Cai Huo.
However, the feeling that Yan Ling got from Qian Yu was that he looked down on her power. This greatly annoyed her.
Qian Yu turned to look at Lu Ou and said, “Lu Ou, why don’t you take part in Capture the General as the general?”
Qian Yu’s first pick had been Lu Ou all along.
You Changjian, Yan Ling, and Cai Huo were favored by royalty, but Lu Ou was Na Na’s new disciple.
A member of royalty could have many favored experts but only one disciple.
Qian Yu did not expect Lu Ou to reject him just as he was about to confirm his choice.
“I’m not suited for long battles. I don’t have healing or recovery abilities, either! I’ll only take part in the group battle. Don’t involve me in Capture the General.”
By rejecting Qian Yu, Lu Ou had humiliated him.
However, Qian Yu did not comment on this.
Lu Ou did have the right to turn Qian Yu down, given his status as Na Na’s disciple.
Since Lu Ou was unwilling to participate, Qian Yu cast his gaze onto the Freedom Federation’s second secret weapon.
