The faces of the competitors from Sword Flower University turned grim as they watched Reonie retreat step by step on stage.
They hadn’t anticipated that Reonie, who should have been responsible for the leading battle, would show signs of defeat in the second seat battle.
Although the positions of vanguard, forward, midfield, second seat, and lead could be adjusted at will, generally speaking, the stronger ones were placed later, with the strongest as the lead.
If one were to play dirty tactics, such as using a ‘superior horse against an inferior horse, and an inferior horse against a superior horse’ routine to secure an overall victory in the friendly matches, it would be within the rules and beyond reproach, but don’t expect other schools to engage in exchanges with you next year—after all, friendly matches are meant to be a contest for schools to test their outstanding students, and the outcomes do not affect the league scores. If tricks are played in such matches, others will not bother to play with you next time.
Everyone can play tricks, but no one likes to be tricky all the time. If you’re clever in a friendly match, don’t be surprised if others are not friendly with you.
Thus, it also meant—Trajectory University’s second seat could actually contend with Reonie, even gaining the upper hand!
Keep in mind, before recommending Sonia, Reonie was Sword Flower’s top student for this session!
The second best from Trajectory was about to defeat Sword Flower’s former number one!
Moreover, they had already lost one match in the vanguard battle, the forward was a last-minute substitute who also was defeated, and they only recaptured a match in the midfield battle. If they lost the second seat battle, the score would become 3:1, and even if they won the lead battle, they would still have lost the overall score.
Not to mention that Sonia was responsible for the lead battle, a thought that made everyone even more pessimistic.
True, the redhead Sword Maiden’s fame had risen recently, becoming known throughout the school, and she could even force a draw with Reonie in a sparring match. But the competition team members did not trust her strength. Unfortunately, both Reonie and Professor Trozan recommended Sonia for the lead, so the other team members could do nothing about it, even if reluctant, and could only convince themselves with the reason of ‘an inferior horse challenging a superior horse.’
Their distrust of Sonia was not without reason—Sonia’s time as a Mage was too short, and she had too few experiences in battle. Even though the redhead Sword Maiden could draw with the orange dancer, that was because both were Sword Masters with a full understanding of each other, which gave them an informational advantage.
