Popularity is everything; I play a super genius

"Who told you that?" Cho-e asked curiously.

"This is my secret informant. I promised not to betray him," Tianhao said casually, without changing his expression.

But there is no doubt that the lawsuit was accepted!

She considers herself to be of average intelligence, and therefore urgently needs a strategist to step forward in the team.

Now, she feels that Tianhao is very similar!

He seems quite wise!

Therefore, she immediately named the latter and entrusted him with an important task:

“Protecting informants is the right thing to do, Tianhao. Please continue, I’m listening.”

Seeing that his analysis had gained Su Shi's attention, Tian Hao became even bolder.

He paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd, before continuing in a deep voice:

"Therefore, since we possess the 'dictatorship' that determines the outcome of a single game, we should make good use of it!"

When facing teams of average strength, it is perfectly acceptable to preserve the strength of the main general.

That way, if such a situation really occurs, it won't matter even if the other team members are not in good condition.

As long as Su Shi, as the main general, retains her full strength, she can win the victory by herself with her "dictatorship"!

This way, Su Shi's strength can be concealed, reducing Karentia's understanding of her and increasing the chances of winning the final.

This not only prevents unexpected events but also provides an absolute safety net, making it undoubtedly the most reliable way to advance!

Tianhao's analysis sounded "reasonable and well-founded".

The group of people in the lawsuit were not known for their intelligence. For a moment, they all showed a look of sudden realization, and were all shocked by Tianhao's profound foresight.

"Okay, let's do it this way!"

As the team leader, Su Shi made a decision immediately!

If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them!

She believed Tianhao's analysis!

……

Therefore, in the first two matches of the Su Shi team, it was three against five!

The commander-in-chief, Su Shi, and the strategist, Tian Hao, remained neutral and observed from the sidelines.

Pan Yan, Cao E, and Chi An, the three generals fought a bloody battle.

Fortunately, these three are also elites in the top class. Under Huang Lu's special training this month, their strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

Moments later, thanks to the perfect performance of the trio, the Su Shi team won the victory without lifting a finger.

Thus, in a short period of time, another team with two wins was born!

Outside the stadium, most of the audience in Xinzhi City focused their attention on Su Shi's team.

Seeing that Su Shi's team, despite clearly conserving their strength, still managed to secure a beautiful victory and jump to second place, tied with Karentia's Xia Er, everyone was greatly encouraged!

Just as everyone was about to pop in some champagne to celebrate, the sign that had just been printed in front of the line, "tied for second," suddenly dropped to third.

However, Xia Er and his team secured another victory, and together with another team from Kalentia, they were the first to advance to the finals.

"Damn it, these two teams from Kalentia are just too freakish..." someone said dejectedly.

"What's the rush? The main general hasn't even exerted his power yet!" some optimistically commented.

Others offered a calm analysis:

“Listen to me, the world has already won too much!”

In their quest for a quick advancement, both teams from Calentia have revealed their lineage and strategies in these matches.

But Su Shi didn't lift a finger the whole time. He stayed in the lounge with the hooded man in his team, watching Kalentia's matches, gathering intelligence, and making analyses!

Therefore, in the upcoming final, the group from Kalentia will face the mysterious Su Shi, who has hidden his strength, and the Information Su Shi, who has completely mastered their abilities!

The advantage lies in its ability to be presented to the world!

"it is good!"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding audience applauded.

That's what you call professional!

Of course, the ones leading the applause were mainly shills from the Thousand Faces family.

The same applies to this one, which is analyzed in great detail.

At this moment, seeing that the atmosphere had been completely stirred up, the shills of the Thousand Faces family, who earned three thousand yuan a month, couldn't help but puff out their chests with pride.

Master, we did it!

Public opinion has now completely sided with Lord Su!

If Lord Sushi wins the competition, then he will be the rightful and popular heir to the King of Cinder!

At that time, the Thousand Faces family will be able to completely overshadow the other two families and become the undisputed number one family in the City of Fire!

……

Just as everyone was listening and finding it increasingly plausible, thinking that after so many years, Xinzhi City was finally going to rise up and win the competition, the situation on the field changed rapidly.

To everyone's surprise!

The two teams in Kalentia have already won three games. All they need to do is return to the square to teleport to the next level and wait in comfort for their opponents in the finals.

But they didn't do that—

Instead of moving on to the next level, they chose to continue fighting in this level!

……

On the arena.

Nagaki's spirit is slowly dissipating.

"I'm so unwilling to accept this..."

"Even though we tried our best, we still couldn't reduce their numbers by even one person..."

"I'm so sorry..."

"I still haven't been able to do anything."

Watching Dorian kick Nagaki to death as easily as kicking a stray dog ​​to death on the roadside.

Charles yawned somewhat listlessly and began to implement the "garbage cleanup plan" they had initially devised.

He took out two cards and inserted them into the console.

The first one is titled "Scattered Flowers".

This item can be used to split the team into two smaller teams, which can then be matched separately!

The second one, [designated].

After using this item, you can choose any team from all teams and start a battle immediately!

Xia Er's fingertips slid rapidly across the screen, locking onto the elite team led by Su Shi without hesitation.

Seeing the "2-0" scoreline next to the team's score, Charles raised an eyebrow and smiled.

Have they already secured two wins?

So, this is where it ends.

Ate, standing next to Charles, looked at the fox mask projected on the screen and grinned menacingly, unable to wait any longer.

He had been waiting for this moment for far too long!

The next instant, spiritual light shone down, enveloping the two of them.

The spirits of Ciel and Ate vanished from the lounge in an instant.

When it reappears, it has entered a new game!

Meanwhile, in the lounge opposite, the five Su Shi people looked completely bewildered, having been suddenly teleported there.

As for the other three members of Ciel's team, Dorothy, Dorian, and Rina, they also became an independent "three-person team".

Dorothy took out the third card and inserted it into the console.

The card is named—

【Enemy Hundred】.

……

Outside the stadium, a large portion of the audience could not understand it.

They did not understand what the people of Kalentia were trying to do.

"Haven't they already advanced? Why are Karentia and the others still playing matchmaking?"

Of course, there were also viewers who were more sensitive to the rules and quickly realized the true purpose of the Karentia group!

"Damn it! Just like in the previous round of auditions, they want to eliminate all our contestants in the second round!"

If you look closely at the rules displayed in the Sea of ​​Spirits, it doesn't say that teams that advance can't continue to match.

Most importantly, before the final round of the third stage begins, the advancing teams will be cleansed by the Sea of ​​Spirit, and all their previous injuries will be healed!

Even if the spirit dissipates and returns to reality, it can log back in at its peak!

In other words, they have been confirmed to have a second life!

Right now, we're using this extra life to wear us down!

If all the other teams from the City of Fire can be eliminated in the second round, then the final will become an internal battle among the ten members of Kalentia!

Even if they can't, they won't suffer any losses.

"It's an extra life anyway!"

After hearing the expert's analysis from the audience, everyone else felt a chill in their hearts.

In an instant, the situation that was so promising just moments before was once again shrouded in shadow.

The grand competition was held in the City of Fire, but the final was an internal battle among the ten people of Kalentia?

That kind of thing—

Just thinking about it is suffocating!

……

The Su Shi group, who had been pulled into the new match, only realized what had happened after seeing the explanation on the big screen.

For a moment, everyone instinctively looked at Tianhao—

They didn't expect that Tianhao's prediction would actually come true!

Kalentia's team actually has an item that can force a match to start.

"Tianhao! Was all of this within your expectations?"

"Tianhao, just how far have your eyes seen?!"

Faced with this completely unexpected situation, Tianhao was momentarily dumbfounded:

"Huh? Ah, um... cough cough!"

He said that earlier simply to find a plausible excuse for his inaction...

It's also his fault for developing the bad habit of bragging.

Everyone in the class thinks he's a pro, but he isn't!

Once you make a move, you'll be exposed 100%...

I really don't want that kind of socially devastating ending!

So they could only try to maintain their public image, avoiding taking action whenever possible, which led to that seemingly serious but actually meaningless analysis...

Who would have thought that he could stumble upon such a perfect opportunity?!
