The King's Avatar: The Sword Immortal Returns

Chapter 159 The sense of security that Yu Wenzhou provided, who understands it?

It was the tactics created by Ye Xiu, Xiao Shiqin, and Zhang Xinjie that gave Yang Cong this opportunity.
"It seems Old Ye is trying to hide his strength, making the opponent think that Ye Xiu's unspecialized character can only serve a harassing purpose, but cannot play a decisive role. They're still underestimating Ye Xiu's unspecialized character."

Mo Qian knew that Ye Xiu was probably planning something big, and that he would unleash his unaffiliated master's power at a crucial moment. The opponent's expression at that time was sure to be quite a sight.

This isn't the last match against the Japanese team. The second half is Ye Xiu's home game, and Ye Xiu definitely won't be a mere background character then—

"The match is over, China wins, plus five points! Is there really any hope of winning again?"

The commentator's eyes had lost their light, only a dull glimmer remained, because he truly saw no hope of the Japanese team winning, not even a sliver of it—

"Is there a brave soul who can save the Japanese team?!"

The Japanese team's Yuzuru sat up immediately upon hearing his name called. Wasn't this his name being called?

"Forget about it, you're not good enough."

At this moment, a contestant named "Brave Warrior" silently shattered... He kept repeating phrases like "I can't do it, I can't do it," seemingly due to some mental derangement.

"Alright, the third team match is about to begin. Players, please get ready..."

Not only had the commentators' eyes lost their sparkle, but even the Japanese team players had given up hope for the match.

"What's the use of all this sighing and complaining? Does it help you in any way?"

Only Amaterasu remained relatively calm, assessing the current situation with composure. She concluded that a complete victory was impossible; they had all underestimated their opponent's strength.
They hadn't expected the opposing team to be so formidable; each one was incredibly fierce. However, Tianzhi understood that they absolutely couldn't afford to be swept clean in the first half. If they were, their reputations would be completely ruined.
Although their reputation is practically ruined now, their so-called title of "world's number one" has long been slapped in the face. What "world's number one"? They've been thoroughly humiliated; what "world's number one"?

"The goal of this match is singular: to defeat at least one opponent and secure at least one point!"

Although this statement sounds somewhat sarcastic, it is the truth: they really struggle to even secure a single point.

When Yu Wenzhou's team took to the field, to be honest, their overall strength was probably the weakest, but their teamwork was not bad. The problem was that the opponent might group up all five players and focus their attacks on the weakest one, because that could actually give the opponent a point.
"Game start!"

"We're going to shave that bald head!"

Yu Wenzhou would not allow his team to make a mistake here, even though his team was facing what is arguably the strongest team in Japan right now. Yu Wenzhou was not afraid!

"Jiang Botao, prepare to charge forward with Wang Jiexi and Han Wenqing. Xu Jingxi, don't fall behind, react quickly." Yu Wenzhou intended to fight a positional battle, the kind of warfare he excelled at. He refused to believe that the enemy could break through the formation he had set up.
The fact is, this battle was turned into a protracted war by Yu Wenzhou because the enemy also used positional warfare.

Both sides have set up their formations and are about to charge! Yu Wenzhou's command versus the opposing team leader Amaterasu's command!
When it comes to command ability, Yu Wenzhou absolutely refused to admit defeat; he simply couldn't believe that he was no match for the opposing team's captain!
"Han Wenqing, Xiao Chong, move up three body lengths and use the Overlord Fist at the three o'clock position. Don't worry, someone will come from there."

Han Wenqing has absolute trust in Yu Wenzhou, after all, Yu Wenzhou is arguably the most consistent among the four tactical masters and the professional player with the fewest mistakes.

"It seems Yu Wenzhou's team needs some reinforcement, Lao Mo, what do you think?"

Ye Xiu, observing the somewhat tense battle, realized the problem: Yu Wenzhou's overall strength and skill were slightly inferior to his opponent's. Since the opponent dared to call himself the world's number one...

Even though the opposing swordsman's reaction was somewhat abnormal, Yu Wenzhou still managed to hold his own, calmly directing every movement, and his own execution was flawless.

"That's why I put Yu Wenzhou last—Old Yu is just too reliable—"

In fact, Ye Xiu even felt that Yu Wenzhou would be a better fit as the captain of the Chinese team, but Yu Wenzhou insisted that Ye Xiu take on the role. He only needed to serve as the vice-captain and tactical commander.

Ye Xiu couldn't go against Yu Wenzhou's wishes, so he had no choice but to comply.
"How about we send Shao Tian over next time? And bring Jiang Botao into my team. With Huang Shao, Yu Wenzhou's team should be fine. The 'Sword and Curse' combination—and Lao Ye, don't forget, my team has Jiang Botao's old friend, the Gun King Zhou Zekai—"

After thinking it over, Ye Xiu realized that what Mo Qian said about H was actually quite accurate. Ye Xiu looked at Mo Qian with some surprise, as if he were seeing Mo Qian in a completely new light.
"Old Mo, when did you develop such excellent tactical insight? Aren't you the one who hates tactics the most?"

Mo Qian rolled his eyes at Ye Xiu. Did he hate tactics?

Mo Qian simply disliked Ye Xiu's tactics because they were truly disgusting.
Ye Xiu truly tormented Mo Qian to the point of near death with his tactics. During the training camp, Ye Xiu specifically developed a strategy to counter Mo Qian. This time, Ye Xiu was genuinely serious.

The tactics tailored specifically for Mo Qian were indeed successful during the training camp, but they only succeeded once before failing again because Mo Qian had become wary. To succeed again, unconventional methods would be necessary.
That was to give Mo Qian a laxative. It was a bit dirty, but it was effective.

"Old Ye, please don't use me for experiments anymore. My little body really can't withstand your experiments—"

Mo Qian said helplessly to Ye Xiu, "There are really very few times when Mo Qian has to back down. Ye Xiu can brag now, the Sword Immortal has finally bowed down before the Battle God!"

"Alright, alright, look at you. I haven't even said anything yet. Don't worry, I won't use you as a tactical experiment—"
