Chapter 2025: The Tip of the Iceberg

"Warm up? Is it necessary? Do you think too highly of them, or do you think I'm not good enough?"

Hearing the Five Elders asking him whether he should warm up in advance, Zhang Jun replied with a look of disdain.

It's not that he believes in his own strength, but that he believes in the words of that adult.

Since that adult said that his strength alone is enough to achieve the final victory, then it must be true.

After all, this is about whether the World Government can be promoted to a top force, and it has nothing to do with Zhang Jun personally.

Because before he participated in this martial arts competition, he had been practicing in the mountains with that adult.

So whether the World Government is promoted or failed, it will not affect him.

To put it bluntly, he is just a tool, a person sent by that adult to work for the World Government.

If he does well, he may get a certain reward, but these rewards may not be of much use to him.

Because under normal circumstances, he will continue to return to that adult. In such an environment, gold, silver and treasures are no different from a pile of ordinary stones.

Similarly, if he fails and the World Government is defeated by others and fails to get the promotion quota, he will not be punished.

At most, he will be criticized for being so weak that he can't even beat such a strong opponent.

As long as it is not that Zhang Jun deliberately lost the game that he should have easily won, but because there were some opponents that he couldn't fight even if he tried his best, then this can't be blamed on him.

Even if there is a blame, it can only be blamed on that adult for not investigating clearly and being too blindly trusting his own judgment. It can also be said that he trusts Zhang Jun's strength too much and thinks that relying on Zhang Jun alone, he can defeat all opponents.

Otherwise, as long as he plays it safe a little bit.

He needs to send the most powerful one among his many guards, or directly send five guards to participate in this martial arts competition.

He even thinks that Zhang Jun can defeat everything, and then there will be four masters who are not weaker than Zhang Jun.

I believe that no matter what kind of opponent they meet, they can easily win.

It is not an exaggeration to say that, let alone facing a Five Tigers Alliance, even if the three top forces of the Shanshui Alliance and the Yemei Alliance join forces, they may not be their opponents.

It is a pity that this adult did not do so. Even though he has many masters under his command, he only sent Zhang Jun to participate in the competition.

Because from the beginning to the end, the adult did not want to reveal too much of his trump card.

Even if he did, he only wanted to send Zhang Jun, the weakest one, so that he could not only let Zhang Jun win the game, but also let him act as a smoke bomb.

Let others mistakenly believe that Zhang Jun is the strongest combat power of the world government.

Because under normal circumstances, if you participate in other competitions, some unimportant competitions, everyone will naturally not bring out the strongest combat power, and will not let others know their true combat power and real trump cards too early.

But this martial arts competition is different. This is a competition that determines who can be promoted to the top force, and the opportunity may only be this once.

If you don’t get it this time, then if you want to get it next time, I don’t know when you will have to wait.

Therefore, those who come to participate in the competition basically bring their strongest combat power.

Even if they hide their weaknesses, they only target some small and medium-sized forces with weak strength.

If they face a force of the same level as themselves, they will definitely not hide their weaknesses. They will only use their strongest martial arts to attack the opponent as soon as they enter the field, and they must fight quickly.

Because once the game is deadlocked, it is really hard to say who will win or lose.

Even if you are strong, you may be defeated by some opponents who are slightly weaker than you because of physical exhaustion in the end.

So this time, except for the World Government, basically no one who came to participate in the competition has only sent one master.

To put it bluntly, the rules are set that each force can only have five players on the field each time.

Otherwise, they may wish that all the combatants of the entire force would go on the field together to fight.

After all, this is a battle that can only win but not lose. Once they win, they will become the top contributors of the force, and the rise of the entire force is due to them.

How could he be like that master, who had more than five masters under his command, but only sent one person to participate in the competition.

Even if he was fully confident, he could actually send another person to follow.

At that time, only Zhang Jun would have to take action, and the other person would just be a spectator on the stage.

In this way, there would be a double insurance.

In case Zhang Jun really didn't perform well, or the opponent performed beyond his level, then this other backhand could immediately take action to help Zhang Jun win the entire game.

In this case, if it was really as that master judged, and the others were not Zhang Jun's opponents, then the person from the other faction could also not take action from beginning to end.

In this way, it would not be counted as this trump card being discovered by others.

Because some weak forces, when they can't get five people together, will choose some weaker ones to participate in the competition.

To put it bluntly, it is to gather heads, and at the same time, it is also to make them cannon fodder, attract attack power, so that the masters of their own forces have the opportunity to exchange injuries.

In this way, using the weaker forces to exchange for the stronger forces of the other side is also a great trick.

However, no matter whether it is a plan with more people or a plan with stronger strength, this adult did not choose.

He just wanted to take an unconventional path, that is, to use Zhang Jun, the weakest, as the strongest chess piece.

As for why he did this, it is actually very simple. The ambition of this adult is definitely not what ordinary people can imagine.

Many people think that his goal is to make the world government smoothly promoted to a top force this time.

In fact, this is just the tip of the iceberg in his plan.

For him, even without this martial arts competition, the real strength of their world government has already reached the category of top forces, and even surpassed it.

In addition, their economic development has always been one of the top three forces in the Sky Island World.

In terms of comprehensive strength, it has reached the level of the first in the Sky Island World early.

It’s just that he has been hiding very deeply, and other forces are completely unaware of it.
