she didn't expect lin yi to pick her right away, and without hesitation at that!
his first reaction was naturally to be overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, but what followed was a huge pressure.
lin yi's gaze made he xiyin want to run away. she was really afraid that she'd drag lin yi down and let down the efforts of the others. it'd also affect the jianghai college's fate.
she really couldn't bear such a huge responsibility.
unfortunately, the matter was already set in stone. even if she wanted to refuse, she couldn't. she had no place to speak in this kind of occasion.
the other person with complicated feelings was li jingning.
after the incident at the imperial kitchen, he didn't have any enmity with lin yi and the others, but lin yi's attitude at the time did piss him off.
If Lin Yi had chosen him, he'd be proud as he was, but he'd be able to take it out on Lin Yi.
but lin yi would rather pick a foundation stage trash than pick number three!
In li Jingning's eyes, Lin Yi's actions were undoubtedly an insult to him.
Who couldn't endure it!
"do you think you can defeat me like this? you don't know your place!"
Li Jingning secretly sneered.
he'd never really considered the school from the very beginning-he'd only lost out to lin yi's attitude towards him, that's all. he'd lost far from anything substantial, though.
After all, he had the promise of eternal river Academy.
next, it was time to draw lots for the eternal river academy!
After deliberately remaining silent for a long time and enjoying the attention of the crowd, especially the big shots of the Supreme Board of Directors, Harlin slowly spoke on behalf of the eternal river college.
"our eternal river academy's number four has chosen the bi 'an ren yuxing."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes immediately fell on an extremely tall and thin freshman. At the same time, it was accompanied by a wave of whispers.
The eternal river Academy's choice was somewhat unexpected, but it was also reasonable.
Ren Yuxing was one of the rare top talents in terms of both strength and talent. In some aspects, he even surpassed Qin Shizhen and GUI ning.
Among the freshmen, he was also one of the few people who received attention.
But for a small team, with this person as the core, there was a big hidden danger.
he was a strong archer.
it wasn't that ren yuxing didn't have any close-combat strength at all, but compared to his huge long-range threat, letting him fight in close-range was definitely a waste of god's gift.
In terms of long-range, Ren Yuxing's threat was the same as the other two's s. Once the other party closed in, his threat would immediately drop to the ordinary B class, or even lower.
Choosing such a person as the core of the team was a huge advantage for the long-range, but who could guarantee that the entire battle could be settled by long-range?
putting the others aside, be it qin shizhen or return to zero, which one of them looked like they would be killed by a long-range sniper so easily?
If Lin Yi's choice of he Xiyin was a move that no one could understand, then the actions of the eternal river Academy were undoubtedly a gamble.
ren yuxing's strengths and weaknesses were too obvious. he was invincible if he won the bet, but once he lost, the consequences would be unimaginable.
while the others were discussing, li jingning, who was standing among the freshmen, felt his heart gradually sink to the bottom.
Previously, Harlin had personally promised him that he would be the core of the team, which naturally meant that he would be recruited as soon as possible!
however, he chose ren yuxing instead.
it's fine. The next lot number five is still the eternal river Academy. It's the same if they choose me. It won't affect the result at all!
Li Jingning could only comfort himself in this way.
However, Harlin's next choice disappointed him again.
"Number five, our eternal river Academy will choose Ye Jia."
His target was a giant man who was more than five meters tall among the freshmen. Just by standing there in a daze, the pressure that his body automatically emitted made the surrounding freshmen unable to approach him.
Without a doubt, this was a physical body expert who had broken through the shackles of growth five times!
"one is near and the other is far," xu anshan said faintly,"the eternal river academy's plan is quite perfect."
Lin Yi nodded. at least from the surface, it's a good duo. Although Ye Jia's disadvantage is obvious, his strong close combat ability is enough to make up for Ren Yuxing's disadvantage in close combat. In critical moments, he can even be Ren Yuxing's shield.
with his powerful physical body, ye jia's close combat ability was not as outstanding as ren yuxing's long-range threat. however, there was still a certain gap between him and qin shizhen and return to zero.
however, this difference was completely within an acceptable range.
In particular, the ability to resist attacks as a shield was even better than those two!
with this, the team-building plan for eternal river academy was very clear.
He would first widen the gap and rely on Ren Yuxing's powerful long-range threat to kill the opponent as much as possible, causing the opponent to have a key reduction in manpower.
and when the enemy finally managed to close in, they could use ye jia as the core of the melee and rely on the number advantage they had accumulated to fight against the enemy.
this entire strategy sounded very simple at first, but as long as it was executed properly, it was quite unsolvable.
That was because there was not a single freshman who could fight with Ren Yuxing from a distance. In the next selection of the eternal river Academy, as long as they could assist Ren Yuxing in blocking the distance, their advantage would be great!
"Hahaha, I really have to thank you, Jianghai Academy. If not for your generosity in helping us, I'm sure it wouldn't have been easy to pick such an unbeatable duo!"
Harlin laughed out loud at Lin Yi without hiding anything.
At that moment, even the people from the other two schools looked at Lin Yi with unfriendly eyes.
The Ganges "team was already a real threat to them. If Lin Yi didn't pick he Xiyin, the power of the close-range and long-range team would be greatly reduced if he picked either one of them.
The strong Archer Ren Yuxing was unique, but how could the perfect meat shield Ye Jia not be unique too?
From the other two schools "point of view, Lin Yi's actions were basically giving the enemy resources. Who the hell would believe that he didn't take any benefits from the school?
Lin Yi smiled nonchalantly. if you really want to thank me, you'd better give me something substantial. It's just that cheap thanks is more fitting for the eternal river Academy's reputation, but it'll still affect your public image.
