After Edda, Jaime would represent the Heavenly Stars Sect in the third game. Hence, he watched the match even more attentively than others. As Caspian‘s analysis was almost the same as his, Jaime could not help turning his head and expressing his agreement.
Jessica pondered and said, “But… You’re going to lose this way.”
Caspian laughed. “We’re going to win in the following matches. After all, the result is not based on one competition, but nine. Not only do we have to do our best to win, but we also have to believe in our teammates. In this case, victory will surely be ours!”
Caspian’s words immediately reached the hearts of the rest of the Heavenly Stars Sect disciples present. Among these people, Xander, Omar, Solana, Maya, and Sebastian had all fought with Caspian, and his words touched them the most at that time. Although Jaime and the others had not had such an experience yet, Caspian’s words brought back memories in their hearts when they were doing academy tasks with other disciples.
“Yes, we’ll win in the end because this is not a one-person game, but a nine-person game,” Jaime and Ronald murmured.
Then, the match also ended just as Caspian predicted. Even though the spiritual Qi of the two were almost exhausted, Natasha, who was at a higher level, still had the upper hand. She seized the opportunity, intercepted Edda’s route, and blasted Edda offstage with a sway of her sword. However, the inscription pattern on her sword edge could not exert its intended power as she practically ran out of spiritual Qi.
After Edda fell off the ring, there was almost nothing abnormal apart from feeling a little hot on her cheeks. Despite winning the game, Natasha walked back to the stands with such an unsightly expression that not even Winston dared to approach her. The match that was supposed to be over instantly was dragged on for so long. Moreover, Natasha‘s opponent was in a lower realm than her, and she got even angrier when she thought of that fact.
In that way, the Blue Feather Sect might have won the second game, but anyone who did not know would definitely think that they had a two-game losing streak judging from their appearance.
In contrast, Edda returned to the Heavenly Stars Sect with guilt and remorse for losing the game, but she was greeted by the other eight teammates‘ encouragement and congratulations. Edda felt like she was about to burst into tears when she was sure that everyone was sincerely appreciating her performance today.
“The next game is up to me.” Jaime stood up, sweeping his gaze across the faces of everyone present. Finally, he looked at Caspian, “Casper, is there anything you want to say to me?”
Just now, Caspian had used Eye of Insight again to know the arrangement of the Blue Feather Sect. At that moment, he had more confidence in Jaime than anyone else. Then, Caspian said with a gentle smile, “Jaime, I wish you a speedy victory, but remember the saying, don’t rush into action.”
