Novel Full Chapter 314
314 Pre-battle Analysis!
Moss noticed everyone’s eyes on him, so he blurted out, “I suggest we go in the order of two rookies, two seniors, three rookies, and three seniors.”
Charlie immediately voiced his concerns, “What if Donghu doesn’t go with four seniors, two rookies, and four seniors?”
“He’s right, Moss. If they send two seniors, two rookies, and six seniors, the pressure will be tremendous on the three seniors who will fight later. They must win all of their matches, or else…” Noel furrowed his brows, and his expression was severe as he agreed with Charlie.
Although the others did not say anything, Moss could tell from their expressions that many still had doubts about what he had just said.
Therefore, he continued, “Even if there were two seniors, two rookies, and six seniors, I believe our seniors will drag the competition to the team battles. Moreover, the probability of such a situation happening is minuscule.”
Moss paused for a moment. Since everyone was silent, he continued, “Our first three matches consist of only rookies. The first match will consist of five rookies and five seniors, the second is six rookies and four seniors, and the third is four rookies, three seniors, two rookies, and one senior.
“It wasn’t hard for the other teams to understand our formation. After all, our primary goal was to train the rookies. However, our opponent this time is Donghu, one of the top ten institutes.

“In such a crucial match, everyone, including Donghu, will think we won’t send any more rookies. They would probably think we would try our best to win and place our seniors in the top one to seven positions and that Captain Bishop would probably play in the fifth or sixth place.
“That was because the other party knew that they had many rookies. No matter how they ranked, it was impossible to be foolproof.
“Thus, the safest and simplest way is to let the five second-year members fight for victory. As long as all five second-year members win, they will be invincible. Even if they enter the group competition, their chances of winning will be high.
“This is indeed part of our strategy. Donghu knows this very well, so I think the focus of their formation is to let their number one and two go up against our number three to five and let the two first-year students go up against our captain and co-captain.
“This way, their chances of winning would be as high as possible. To achieve this effect, they were likely to place weaker players in the first two, fifth to sixth places, and there was a high probability of placing two rookies in the fifth to sixth places.
“In other words, they would use the order of four seniors, two rookies, and four seniors. In addition, I think their captain or co-captain will likely be the third to participate.”
Moss also marked the other participants’ positions on the writing board that he had analyzed.
After marking all the labels, Moss sat back down and said, “That was my analysis and why I suggested two rookies, two seniors, three rookies, and three seniors.
Clap, clap, clap! Captain Bishop took the lead in clapping.
“How thorough!”
“That’s great!”
…
The team members sent out their words of praise simultaneously.
Benedict said smilingly, “To be honest, Moss’s thoughts are similar to mine! However, I think I should be the one leading the charge!”
When he finished his sentence, boos and laughter came from the room. Captain Bishop laughed and said to Benedict, “Since you have an idea, just say it. Why keep it in your heart? I can’t read your mind if you keep it in.”
After teasing Benedict, Bishop walked to the board and wrote Benedict’s name at the top. He turned to Benedict and said, “I’ve thought about it, and I think what you said makes sense. You’ll take the lead and kill Donghu’s spirit.
Then he changed the topic, “But if you lose…”
Benedict patted his chest and interjected, “Then I’ll give you my head!”
At that moment, Benedict seemed like he could hold off ten thousand enemies by himself.
“What?! No one wants your head.” Bishop smiled and raised his eyebrows. “If you lose, you must share 10% of your GPA with everyone!”
“B-But that’s…” Benedict’s face turned red. After a while, he said, “S-Sure.”
He instantly attracted another burst of laughter.
After the laughter ended, Bishop looked around and said, “Felix, you’ll fight in the second round!”
“Yes, Captain!” Felix stood up and replied respectfully.
“I’ll be the third to fight. If I meet Donghu’s captain or co-captain, I’ll reduce their morale,” Bishop appeared calm when he said this but gave off an overpowering feeling.
As Bishop spoke, he wrote down Felix, himself, and Charlie’s names on the board. Then he wrote Nat, Noel, and Moss’s names in the fifth to seventh positions, while Gavin, Gerard, and Carolyn were in the eighth to tenth positions.
Bishop knocked on the board and continued, “This is the order Moss mentioned just now, but I’ve swapped the first and fourth positions. Does anyone have any objections to this order?”
“No, we don’t, Captain!” The rest of the team members said in unison.
“All right!” Bishop nodded and then looked at Sofia and the five professors. He asked, “Professors, do you think there are any problems with the order of appearances?”
Although he thought the plan was perfect, he still wanted to hear the professors’ opinions in such a significant competition.
“That’s looking good. I have no objections!” Sofia quickly replied. At the same time, she looked at the other five professors.
The professors nodded approvingly or responded with “very good” or “okay.”
Sofia did not waste any more time and said to Bishop expectantly, “It’s decided then. The rest will be up to everyone. We’ll do a good job in logistics and be qualified cheerleaders!”
After she finished speaking, she even saluted her team members.
Bishop and his team members responded with a bow, then he said clearly, “That’s all for today. Go and have a good rest, everyone!”
Upon hearing this, the team members shouted in unison, “For Kyoto’s victory!”
Everyone returned to their rooms immediately after.
Bishop approached Moss and called him, “Moss, wait a moment.”
“Yes, Captain Bishop?” Moss turned and looked at Bishop curiously.
“If things go according to your prediction, you’ll meet the second-year students from the other side. I know your personality.” At this point, Bishop paused, patted Moss’s shoulder, and continued, “It’s a good thing to go all out to win, but compared to this, we need you more in the team competition.
“I have no restrictions for you in the upcoming matches. You can do as you wish, so there’s no need to hide your strength. However, I have a few requests.”
Moss’s eyes lit up, and he nodded smilingly.
“Firstly, I don’t care if you win or lose, but you can’t get hurt. Secondly, you must not reveal all of your assets. You must continue to hide your ultimate move.”
“Yes, Captain Bishop,” Moss replied firmly and then turned to leave with a smile.
Although his voice was not loud and his answer was short, it gave Bishop an excellent feeling. He revealed an excited smile as he watched Moss’s departing figure. He could see a brighter future from Moss.
At that moment, Moss’s body seemed to be emitting light.
