Lugiel is weak? Have you ever heard of Dark Spark?

Chapter 20. The Four Nations Arrive: Great Bear Country, Eagle Country, Pasta Country, and Goryeo Country.

"It might be a bit difficult."

Luo Jia frowned slightly and suddenly spoke with a worried expression.

"It's a war for the fate of a nation. The rules stipulate that a country can only have a maximum of 4 people participating. We currently have 3 people, including the princess."

“But there are at least eight athletes from other countries.”

Luo Jia shook her head helplessly, her eyes filled with worry.

"Think about it carefully, the other side of 14 people could easily band together, so why would they give up their advantage of having more people?"

"Why not instead join forces with the mere three of us?"

Luo Jia's tone was heavy; the seemingly disparate power dynamics made forming an alliance extremely difficult.

"Besides, this is a competition after all, and there will always be teams at the bottom," Luo Jia continued, her tone tinged with helplessness and worry.

“I know this better than you do.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye fell silent. He raised his hand and gently rubbed his temples, feeling a faint pain there.

The situation Luo Jia described was indeed thorny. In this fiercely competitive national tournament, the disparity in strength made their situation exceptionally difficult.

How to break through the predicament and find a glimmer of hope became the urgent problem facing him, but for a moment, he was at a loss for what to do.

Inside the live stream, the barrage of comments scrolled like a tidal wave.

"Why do I feel a little hopeless? I wish I hadn't joined this competition. Is Lin Shen regretting it?"

"But don't forget, this war for the fate of the nation has entered its countdown. There are only two days left, which coincides with the end of this special opportunity."

"In just two days, where could Lin Shen find any other opportunities? The increasing strength of other countries means that we are getting weaker. If we don't move forward, we will fall behind."

"If he doesn't get involved, Lin Shen's situation alone is practically a slow death!"

The audience was discussing it enthusiastically, getting more and more excited as they talked, and finally everyone's attention was focused on Lin Ye's reaction in the live broadcast room.

Lin Ye remained silent, not uttering a single word, which led everyone to speculate whether Lin Shen was truly in despair.

"It is better to die speaking out than to live by remaining silent."

Lin Ye finally broke the silence and slowly spoke, then looked directly at Luo Jia and Fu Kesi.

"Why didn't you withdraw, but instead entered the game directly?"

Luo Jia met Lin Ye's gaze calmly and said firmly, "China and Belarus are both my motherlands, and the blood of both countries flows in my veins."

"Belarus no longer exists, and all that remains of my homeland is the Dragon Country."

After Luo Jia finished speaking, she asked Lin Ye in return, "Since you were the first to realize that the situation was difficult, why did you still get involved?"

Lin Ye gave a slight bitter smile, his tone heavy yet extremely resolute: "Because there is no way to retreat. If I withdraw, it means that no one in the Dragon Kingdom will be able to fight."

"Like those who have just awakened, a horse will not get fat without night grass, and if you don't advance, you will fall behind; it's like rowing against the current."

“I was once a dying man, and God gave me a second chance to come back to this world. I understand the feeling of death very well.”

"Because life is finite, and the oppression of grief will continue until death, I'm not sure who in the Dragon Kingdom will accept it in the future?"

[The quota for the eldest prince has been filled; the countries are Great Bear Kingdom and Eagle Kingdom.]

The quota for the second prince has been filled; his country is the Noodle Country, Goryeo.

[The quota for the Eight Princesses has been filled; the countries are China and Belarus.]

[All spots are filled. The first battle will begin in thirty minutes. The match consists of three rounds; winning two rounds will allow you to advance.]

[The first battle begins!]

[China vs. the Eagle] [Belarus vs. the Bear]

[Limited participation: Only 4 people per country.]

There will be two matches in total. If the score is tied, extra time will be played.

"This started way too quickly; the actions of other countries are astonishingly swift."

Luo Jia frowned slightly and couldn't help but speak up.

"The limit of four people per country is good news for us."

"At least, I don't have to worry too much about the number of people."

Lin Ye's expression was solemn. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke.

"Isn't it because you're all alone? No matter how meticulously you plan, only you can actually play?"

Fukos glanced at Lin Ye and spoke with a hint of helplessness.

"I have to fight in the first match." Lin Ye's eyes suddenly sharpened.

One against four, and I'm the best.

Lin Ye pondered to himself, his gaze firm yet resolute.

He quickly planned in his mind, preparing to summon his powerful allies: Golza, Melba, Super Gob, and two Zettons.

These are five formidable monsters; their combined appearance could disrupt the entire battle.

"Let me see what kind of lineup the Eagle Nation has sent this time."

Lin Ye muttered to himself. When he saw the list of players from the Eagle Nation, he couldn't help but gasp.

The lineup sent by the United States was extremely impressive:
The strongest synthetic beast, Orb King, is a fearsome boss-level existence in the Heisei Three Heroes theatrical films;
Ultraman Gaia, the Light of the Earth, draws his power from the earth, the light of the planet.

The combined monster Grand King, as a powerful boss, combines the power of many monsters, making it virtually invincible;
DarkLops Zero, with his dark power and a copy of Ultraman Zero, is also a major threat on the battlefield.

Support: Zoga Bird.

"..."

Lin Ye fell silent instantly, faced with such a powerful opponent.

A fierce battle is inevitable.

The live stream chat instantly exploded, with comments scrolling like a torrential downpour.

"This ranking system is so amazing! Just looking at the lineups of these two teams, you can feel the overwhelming pressure!"

"If Lin Shen could transform into Dark Lugiel, he might still have a fighting chance, right? After all, this lineup is practically like the Sakura Country team versus the Eagle Country team."

"Come on, the Eagle Kingdom is the 'father' of the Sakura Kingdom. The Sakura Kingdom has never won against the Eagle Kingdom. This time, Lin Shen is probably in grave danger."

"My Lord Gods, are you communicating using some kind of special language?"

Karen asked curiously at this moment.

The automatic translation capability can be turned off, which is why she was puzzled by the way Lin Ye and the others were communicating.

At that very moment, "knock, knock, knock," someone suddenly knocked on the tightly closed door.

The abrupt sound was particularly loud in the quiet space.

This broke the slightly tense and doubtful atmosphere.

The moment everyone's attention was focused on that door, it was clear who had come over.
