"When the first video game was born, eSports was born!"

A beautiful woman in a pale pink dress with a purple butterfly tattooed on her left chest, holding a black microphone engraved with the logo of the e-sports league, opened her mouth lightly, and said slowly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"With the gradual development of video games, e-sports is also improving rapidly, and today, when virtual games have entered their heyday, the status of e-sports has been on par with many popular sports, or even surpassed."

"Xiao Butterfly" Liu Xiao fell into the ears of all the spectators at the opening draw ceremony of the CGP Tour with a pleasant voice, and the new CGP E-sports Tour was announced today.

This is a live broadcast of the Internet and TV simultaneously, there are no celebrities, let alone live audiences, the entire opening lottery ceremony is only hosted by Liu Xiao and others around her, and there is also an official from the Huaxia E-sports League to carry out the lottery, as well as the government personnel who are responsible for supervising the official.

Before Xiaodie spoke, every viewer in front of the computer or TV watched a short but exciting video clip of the last CGP Tour and the battle of the three clubs representing China on the WGP Tour. Many well-known players in the Chinese e-sports industry have appeared in this short film, and of course, the three hegemon-level player forces occupy the most time space.

Almost all the members of the club gathered at their respective headquarters to watch the live video broadcast that only decided the opening of the first battle, and the Qingluan Hall was naturally no exception.

In the spacious conference hall, Liu Xiao and other people's figures appeared on the dimly lit screen, and the members of the Qingluan Hall Club, who numbered just over half a hundred, sat on bright red seats according to the latest scheduled seats, and looked at the picture on the screen intently.

Sitting in the first place is naturally Jiang Luan, the head of the Qingluan Palace, as the leader of the Qingluan Hall Club, she has faced many more important events than this, but the Qingluan who was born with a big heart has never been so nervous as now, her palms are sweaty, and her breathing is heavy.

In the past, it must be Xu Sansi who sat next to her, and on the other side of Xu Sansi was the sleepy Li Chunmian, although the reputation and status of the latter two were far inferior to her, but she knew that the reason why the Qingluan Hall after the turmoil was able to not lose the position of overlord had a lot to do with these two people.

However, now, the two of them sat in front of the screen that belonged to Tingyunxuan, looking at the same picture as her.

This is the first battle after the launch of the Dark Shelter, after several months of experience, almost all the forces have undergone a major blood change, especially Qingluan Hall and Tingyu Xuan are the most, the latter aside, the fourteen are selected, only Jiang Luan, Du Xuan, Guo Erli, Li Bingtian, the four old men, and the remaining ten people are either poached from other clubs, or they are pure rookie players.

Such an e-sports team, which was formed only a few days before the start of the game, although it includes many top players who are familiar to players, but many experts are not optimistic about the new Qingluan Palace.

The most important reason is that esports is a sport that tests individual strength and teamwork.

In each game, there are three 1v1, one 2v2 and one 5v5 competitive match, only players with extraordinary skills and psychological quality, only proficient in fighting with the team, can laugh at the end.

Maybe the strength of everyone in the Qingluan Hall is very strong, but those battles that are good at teamwork can exert combat effectiveness beyond the usual, not to mention that in the special competition system, the strength gap between the contestants will be further erased, or even disappear completely.

However, even though the outside world is generally not optimistic about Qingluan Palace, Jiang Luan, who is the head of Qingluan, has always had great confidence in his team, which is not only because of the reason why Qunqiang joined, but also because of Wu Liang who sat next to her.

Although he did not experience the original team qualifying match, Wu Liang, who was newly ranked in the old man, with his outstanding performance in the Dark Shelter, was definitely worthy of the name to be ranked second.

"Hey, who are you talking about fighting whom?"

Wu Liang, who was a little excited, turned his head and whispered to Jiang Luan.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Luan shook his head gently, and the raised hair made Wu Liang's nose itch.

"It doesn't matter who fights with whom, what matters is how?"

"Oh, you're worried about competitive mode, aren't you?"

"Hmm!" Jiang Luan groaned, "If it's a data model, we won't be passive, even if it's a growth model, I'm not too worried, but if it's the last one......"

Jiang Luan's voice was a little heavy, and Wu, who was moving in his heart, directly took the other party's hand and didn't say anything. Jiang Luan felt the warmth of his palm, smiled slightly, and turned his attention to the screen again.

However, Guo Erli, who was sitting in the third place, was not in a good mood, the reason was very simple, the four or five people on his right hand were Du Xuan and the gang leader, and then Hong Feng and Liu Yanxia and his wife, no matter which single dog was sandwiched between three couples like glue, he should not be in a good mood......

Getting back to the point, others took over the conversation from Xiao Die with a very natural topic, he first said some prospects for the new season, and then introduced the three overlord-level clubs that drew lots today, as a new top party person, he focused on the situation of Qingluan Palace, of course, players are not much dissatisfied with this, because of many reasons inside and outside the game, Qingluan Hall has become the focus of many players after dinner, in this high-profile moment, Other people's moves are in line with the ideas of many audiences.

"I know that the audience on the other side of the camera at this time is very concerned about a question, that is, can the Qingluan Palace continue to retain its supremacy?" Dressed in a black suit, he is quite heroic and dignified, and when he speaks, he shows a temperament without stage fright, and his bright eyes are clearly conveyed to every audience through the lens, "This question can only be answered by time, and what we can do is only wait and see." ”

"yes!"

Liu Xiao responded with a charming smile, "Whether it is the Qingluan Palace, the center of the recent topic, or the aces and Central Plains Pavilion that have been adjusted by the members, or the clubs that are supported by the audience, what kind of performance can they have in the new season, can only be tested by time, and they can only rely on their own strength and hard work to complete this unknown test paper." ”

Then, she smiled at the camera and changed her mind.

"Well, I'm sure we've been talking for so long, and the audience can't wait, and now, let's start revealing the first match of the season on the CGP Tour!"

Liu Xiao raised his hand and introduced the lottery officials of the e-sports league and the supervisors of the conquest, the middle-aged man in a brown suit who didn't look pot-bellied, walked behind the lottery instrument in front of the camera without smiling, stretched out his hand, and pressed it on a glass ball controlled by the mastermind of the game system.

This is recognized, impossible to fake, and the most authoritative lottery instrument, and when the square-faced man in a suit presses his palm against the transparent glass ball, the logos of the three major clubs appear on the camera.

The flame Qingluan of the Qingluan Hall will not be introduced more.

In the center is a metallic card with a dark gold pattern in the background, and at the top of the center is a red pattern in the shape of a crown, and below the crown is an ornate scepter symbolizing royal power. This chapter of cards does not have any form of text, but everyone who sees it will involuntarily think of a name in their hearts, and that is - Ace!

The sign on the right side of the picture is the most complex and also the most poetic, a quaint wooden pavilion hidden in the misty clouds, standing under the starry sky, hidden in the mountains, where you can see the clear waves of the surging river flowing in front of the mountain, intertwined into a web and finally rushing into the sea. Compared with the "straightforwardness" of the Qingluan Hall and the "domineering" of the trump card, the logo of the Central Plains Pavilion is more like a work of art, fully revealing the meaning of Chinese culture, so that almost everyone who sees it for the first time can't help but watch it carefully.

"The person who painted this picture must be terrible!"

Wu, who used to be a "person in the rivers and lakes", touched his chin and pretended to say profoundly, attracting a chuckle and soft white eyes from Jiang Luan next to him, who said: "This is a pattern drawn by a computer!" ”

"No, no!"

Wu Liang shook his head, and was about to explain that he saw an extraordinary realm from this sign, and a free and bold figure gradually appeared in his mind, as well as a name that shocked thousands of special people, when the screen in the conference hall suddenly dimmed, and the logos of the three major clubs disappeared at the same time, leaving only the transparent glass ball and the palm on the ball in the picture.

At this time, the voice of someone else's house sounded.

"In the first game of the CGP Tour, the two sides are ......" The other family deliberately lengthened the voice, and then a pattern appeared in the transparent glass ball, which was a card.

……

"Brother Xiong!" Li Zhongyi, whose muscles and bones were broken, took the pipe in his mouth, pinched the joints on his hands, and made a crackling sound like popping beans, "It's time for us to play!" ”

Sitting in the middle of the club members, the "overlord" Xiongba, the figure is extremely burly, his seat width alone is equivalent to twice that of others, he is a tiger's back, his face is full of anger, but all those who are familiar with the ace know that Xiongba is not a big boss who only knows how to use brute force, but a bully who can really carry the leader of the club.

He stood up proudly, looked at the members of the clan sitting on his left and right, raised his head, and stared at the screen with burning eyes.

He didn't care whether his opponent was Qingluan Hall or Zhongyuan Pavilion, because in his heart, victory could only belong to the trump card.

……

At the same time, at the headquarters of the Nakahara Pavilion, all the club members were intently waiting for another name to be revealed.

Stunned, who performed well in the battle between Denglick and the Ranger North Battalion, was staring at the screen with his arms crossed, but his eyes were a little dazed, obviously not paying attention here, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Isn't it going to happen again last year?"

Xiao Man, who was dressed in a cool white shirt, stretched out his right index finger and tapped his stunned arm, pulling the latter out of reverie and bringing him into a memory. Just last year, the opening match of the CGP Tour was also made up of these three dominant clubs, and the situation was the same as now, with the ace first appearing in front of the world, and then Nakahara becoming the other side of the match.

As the first game of the season, both forces paid the most attention, and that battle was not a special format, allowing both teams to play to their full strength without hindrance. As a result, the game that became the focus of the battle, with its high intensity, good ornamentation, and ups and downs of the game, lived up to expectations and became the most textbook classic game.

Even though the Central Plains Pavilion was defeated by a slight disadvantage in the end, Xiao Man and Jing, who were among the participants, wanted to experience that scene again, so the hearts of the two of them couldn't help but become hot.

"Regardless of the outcome!"

At this moment, a voice full of energy resounded in everyone's ears, the owner of this voice was a young man with a "Yan Bufuyin", wearing an ordinary plaid shirt, with ordinary short hair on his head, and an ordinary face with a few pimples, but it was a striking sunny smile.

Gu Yu Xiaoman, whose face is not inferior to Jiang Luan's gang leader, the cold and handsome sting, the shiny mango seed with a shiny head, and the frost and cold who always maintain a cold posture...... All the members of the Central Plains Pavilion focused their attention on this young man.

Because he is the leader of the Central Plains Pavilion - the vernal equinox.

"It's going to be a good game!"

As he spoke, the eyes of the spring equinox narrowed slightly, and then he saw a beautiful fire-eyed Qingluan on the big screen.

……

Ace VS Qingluan Palace!

There was an uproar on the other side of the camera, and although this ending had been imagined countless times by countless individuals, everyone couldn't help but sigh when it became a reality.

Compared with the Central Plains Pavilion, these two forces can be described as a mixture of love and hate. Not to mention the cooperation in the jurisdiction of the Ranger North Camp, just those highlights listed by the good deeds have made many players interested in this game.

First of all, the problem of "Shenlun Heroes", you must know that it was the outstanding performance of Hong Feng and his wife last season that established a huge advantage for the ace and defeated Qingluan Palace, but this season, Shenkou Heroes actually switched to Qingluan Hall without warning, which made players very interested in the scene of the battle, and whether Hong Feng and his wife could show their due strength in the face of their old club? Can the ace who knows the Archer Warriors the best come up with corresponding countermeasures?

Then there is the relationship between the flower monk and the drunken Arhat, the news that the two are brothers in the same sect has long been spread, since the two "parted ways", players are looking forward to this scene of fighting with the same door, is it the drunken Arhat defending the reputation of the supernova, or the flower monk can shoulder the glory of the "senior brother"?

Finally, there is a comparison between the two new players, Wang Shengchuan and Dou Dou, who are also from the training camp, one enters the ace and the other enters the Qingluan Palace, and the two who have the same good luck have both successfully elected to the team in the first season, and this has greatly spawned the gossip psychology of the players. Or can Zhengtai Doudou laugh at the end?

If Zhao Huangqi, Zhao Laoshi, Zhao Someone (important things to say three times) and Qingmei a pot of wine are pulled out by the paparazzi, then it is destined that this game will be more thorough, after all, single dogs very much want to see the situation of "love and kill".

Of course, in addition to these conflicts and contradictions that are put on the table or hidden behind the scenes, there are many highlights in this game, such as which is stronger or weaker between the overlord and the madman? The question of the ownership of the first furious battle in the country? What is the contrast between hard power?

However, the most important and most anticipated thing is Wu Liang's strength.

April Fool's Day, which has attracted attention since the beginning of the game, successfully defeated the undefeated god of war Ares in the peak 1000 list, and single-handedly stirred up the land of Canduras, becoming one of the most successful players in the current stage, and now he is the first person in the rank leaderboard. In addition to attracting envy, many titles are more of a war of words in the forum.

Because the battle in the arena is more of a test of the player's competitive level, if the character data cannot be transplanted, then the combat technique has become the biggest reliance of the players. Although Wu Liang's battle videos are varied, there are few that can truly reflect his competitive level, so whether Wu Liang can dominate in another arena has become the focus of everyone's attention.

……

Call!

Seeing this result, everyone in Qingluan Hall did not feel too much pressure, but the high hanging stone in their hearts had already landed, which was a contradictory special feeling, just like in the classroom, you know the correct answer, but your heart is still uneasy when the teacher asks questions.

"The results of the draw have been announced, and the aces of last season's CGP Tour champions and runners-up and Qingluan Hall will start the first battle of the new season!"

When others spoke, they waved their fists a little excitedly, and then Xiaodie Liu Xiao also made a few appropriate speeches.

However, this draw ceremony did not end there, because in addition to selecting the two sides of the match, the live broadcast also had to announce the battle scene and competitive mode of the opening match in advance.

The alliance official in a suit and leather shoes, whose palms never left the glass ball, just as Liu Xiao said, "Let's take a look at the details of the opening game", a series of data appeared on everyone's screens.
