October 11th, sunny, match day, Shiqian City Arena.

The cheers of the mountains and tsunamis were heard in the audience, and all the TV channels and online live broadcasts in Shiqian City turned to these contents.

It's an annual festival, and even if it's just a warm-up rookie race, the in-person tickets are already sold out....... Countless spectators were either on site or at home, waving lottery tickets to cheer for the promising newcomers.

Standing at the entrance of the field battlefield, Zheng Li, who had revisited the old place, still sighed a little.

Just last month, I participated in the rookie competition for the first time, and my feelings at that time were unusually complicated and contradictory.

Although it was only a qualifying tournament to brush up points, I also participated in it in a playful nature....... But the idea of fighting for Feng Mingliu has always lingered in his mind, and he knows that this is someone's heartfelt unwillingness and expectation.

But in that case, exposing more information about himself is equivalent to looking for death, although Zheng Li has participated in many games, it is also used to train rabbits....... Those who can avoid it, those who can hide it, and when they encounter a hard hand that may expose their hole cards, they do not hesitate to abstain.

At the beginning of the competition, the strength of the newcomers was also uneven, most of them just tried their own quality, and occasionally there were pure newcomers to brush up on the qualification points, and they often only tasted it....... No one would be stupid enough to expose their hole cards before the main game.

But this time, it's a different story.

The first round of the official rookie tournament is also a battle royale mode, ranging from 50 to 200 depending on the number of players, but recently it has been so popular that each round has reached 350-450 players.

Predictably, the number will increase dramatically....... The unyielding losers in the first ten days will not hesitate to join the second, third, or fourth challenges, which may be their once-in-a-lifetime chance.

Since yesterday, it has been the middle stage of this year's rookie competition, and the most uncontrollable and most lucky early stage has passed, and the main lineups of all parties have officially begun to enter the field, plus those who have bumped into the man-eating shark The powerful unlucky eggs are not at the same level as before.

There are even those who have already qualified for the next round and continue to sign up for the competition, and there are still a lot of them.

Knocking out more competitive contestants? Some people may think so, but it is definitely a very small minority, and they are more in pursuit of safe combat opportunities, accumulating more experience in dealing with them, and most importantly, ......

"Today, the ratings are 17 percent. It's another all-time high. ”

"Maybe there were a few ruthless people yesterday. Don't mention the battlefield drag racing clan, Yanzijian and Jin Manniu stumbled for most of the game yesterday, so that the venue was urgently reorganized, and there were dozens of unlucky people who were involved in the accidental 'death', and they all participated today, vowing to divide the winner. ”

The communication of the staff made Zheng Li also a little surprised.

After all, this is just a rookie game, or the kind of more than a dozen games a day, and the fact that one out of five people watches shows that the popularity is really a bit high.

In a sense, this is also expected, whether it is a short-term investment, job offering, upward path, or long-term prestige and ethnic recognition, this is the best opportunity.

No, these newcomers who have performed well have "nicknames" given to them by the audience, this is the first step to winning the title, and many people are eager for it.

Since the competition system allows for more brushes, why not brush more....... Can't get out of the line? Isn't there still a vote? Aim to be one of those few votes.

"By the way, did you read it? Yesterday, the anchor laughed to death, his fart and urinated limbs fell to the ground and ran for his life, and there were a bunch of flowers where he ran, this kind of garbage ability is not to be a florist and a soldier, and the Internet media desperately blew him before the loss of what ........"

"Flower Warrior? Heh, he's okay, at least one point. Have you heard of that 'dark bloodthirsty beast', that's just a miserable one, being hung upside down under a tree and exploding, this kind of person can actually go to the battlefield, and there are so many supporters, what a dark hero in the new era, it's like a joke......"

And from other people's discussions, as well as the barrage floating in the live webcast, Zheng Li was also sure that his suggestion at that time had been adopted.

Some people are pulled into the sun, and the live broadcast industry in Shiqian City will undergo a major reshuffle.

It's clear that it's getting harder and harder to qualify as time goes on.

In fact, yesterday's fifteen games, with an average of 400 people per game, due to the large number of participants, the number of survivors in each game was 4, and the number of voters was 8...... But in fact, the number of new qualifiers has not exceeded 50, and many places have been abolished.

Cause? It's not the guys who brush up on their reputation, they first take up the number of survivors, and then defeat the other newcomers in a humiliating or crushing way, making many viewers vote in a vindictive, irrational mess.

In this era, it is normal to prefer to vote for the strong who don't need it than to show mercy to the weak losers.

Will it be accepted officially, and there is no place to postpone? The facts are in front of everyone, the places are gone, and the appeals are not answered.

Is it fair? Of course it's not fair, but that's what the officials were expecting, and he's repeatedly emphasizing one thing, from the format to the organization of the tournament itself.

"As long as you don't violate the basic rules, you can play whatever you want. Weakness is the original sin, and no one in the outside world will be fair to you. ”

The rules are as simple as possible, if you have the ability to exploit loopholes, you can drill as you like, this world has never been fair, at least we will not let you lose your life here, it is already a rare mercy.

The only thing that is considered taboo is probably to form a team in private, sell places, and so on....... When this kind of thing is exposed, that person is also considered a waste.

There is not enough strength to force a breakthrough, but the difficulty of the next round is directly increased tenfold, and generally no one is so stupid.

It's worth mentioning that Bunny is out, and she has no intention of participating again at all....... This failure made her realize the real gap, and even made her rarely depressed for two days, causing Zheng Li to spend some time to comfort her.

Officials are even taking the initiative to promote the "rookie champions", encouraging them to eliminate the weak in disguise...... Focusing resources on the most promising seedlings is too convincing reason.

Rabbit's new sister, Tiger Ichisaki, easily entered the next round, regardless of IQ and experience..... cough, if you only look at the combat effectiveness, she is indeed a good seedling of the first grade.

In the novice stage, where there is not much difference in actual combat experience, the Crimson Tiger's melee poison flame can make any living person miserable.

In particular, Zheng Li trained her a lot of practical methods, and she was lucky that she did not meet too strong "cheaters".

She also brushed it twice, won the nickname of 'Little Red Tiger', and the family called her to praise her, increased her loan limit for next year, forgave her repayment time, and made her happy as that.

Looking at the appearance of the tiger, the rabbit was stimulated by her enough, and even took the initiative to go to the dojo to practice for two days...... Well, it's just two days, and on the third day, it's back to salted fish.

Well, Zheng Li already has a new plan, he won't send her easily, but now that he is not free, let her salted fish for two days first.

Zheng Li woke up two days late, and after waking up, he was busy again...... When he remembered to sign up quickly, he was naturally in the middle of the line.

At this time, the staff who were doing the last inspection for Zheng Li were very relaxed, and they didn't even gossip directly with Zheng Li, let alone treat the signature photo package for the star contestants.

Probably, in the eyes of most of the staff, the first time to participate in the competition at this time is probably in the nature of playing tickets...... Aren't all those who want to qualify out of the game as soon as possible, and now go to find abuse.

And the fact that he only carried a double sword on his body confirmed this view.

At this age, no matter how you look at it, you don't want to have a spirit companion who is one with spirit and flesh.

"Race on the edge of your hand? If you want to appear on the scene, you won't be looking for abuse, and at least have a decent ending if you come early. ”

Although he is muttering in his mouth, he will not offend people by saying it casually.

Sure that the "time lock" was foolproof, the young staff member nodded and began to fulfill the final notification procedure.

"Because there are so many entrants, No. 217, you're put in 10 minutes after the race, which is actually a preferential treatment. By the way, if you have a spirit race, you have to release it when you enter, and at the same time, at the entrance, show the audience all your spirit blades, which may give you a shot..... But there are a lot of participants, so don't expect too much. ”

Zheng Li nodded, there is nothing to say, since it is a rule, just do it.

He didn't know that the moment he really stepped into the battlefield, several screens turned around at the same time, and the anchor station turned the big screen directly.

Next to this calm youth, three spirits stood beside him.

As soon as the red-haired girl came out, she couldn't wait to touch the game console behind her waist, and the winged kitten yawned, lay on the shoulder of the sword master, and fell asleep instantly.

And the tallest one of them, the characteristics are too obvious, which makes the guest anchor of the live broadcast station stand up and exclaim.

"Oni Sakura! That's a title hunter! She actually became the spirit blade of the young man?! There is someone who can withstand the ghost cherry blossoms! It's too, that's a bloodthirsty demon sword that has killed countless people! That contestant doesn't do anything, let Onizakura slaughter, and he can easily qualify! ”

After completing the display obligation, Zheng Li only stretched out his hand to Lin Yuying.

"I'm sorry, this time, I need you to be my blade."

Ghost Sakura's combat power, even after being weakened, is still strong enough when taken out alone, Zheng Li will not waste this strength and experience, he has already talked to Lin Yuying about the future.

It's just that this time, as Zheng Li's debut performance, the script has been written, and there is no scene where she appears.

The four-bladed three-spirit clan, as a newcomer, is too exaggerated, and the anchor station has completely turned the camera.

On the big screen, I just saw the blood-red blade being held in the young man's hand, and the synchronous voice amplified his subconscious whispering.

"It's going to be a massacre. You can run away, but ......"

The blood-colored long knife that was waved casually directly split the dead tree behind him, and the assassin who was secretly lurking behind the tree directly became two.

Blood was flowing on the ground, the return of time had been activated, and the face of the assassin lying on the ground was still full of dazed and unbelieving.

“........ There is absolutely no escape. ”

Loosening his muscles and bones, his double swords were placed on his waist, and with a blood-colored long knife in his hand, Zheng Li walked to his hunting ground.

It's a full 400, 50 minutes, eight a minute, and a bit rushed..... But I still hope that I don't lose too much in the infighting, and it's quite expensive for me to come to the ring.

The pleasant smile on the corner of the young man's mouth, as usual flat and formulaic, as if he was practicing his daily service work, made keen witnesses chill inexplicably.

It seems that the trend of this rookie event has completely gotten out of control.
