Airfares, schedules, badges......

As the Gigabyte Invitational arrived in the hands of the team base, the entire Nine-Tailed Fox base entered a state of tension.

The members of the Nine-Tailed Fox were originally immersed in the training in desperate mode, and their nervousness was still very numb, but after they got out of the training, whether they went to the restaurant to eat or met the staff on the way back to the dormitory, they could feel that expectant gaze......

The invisible pressure that gradually gathered still had a slight impact on their competitive state.

Chen Bin didn't have much to do about it, like the mature teams of the Red Nest, the pre-game atmosphere of the team base is an important lesson, but it is impossible for the Nine-Tailed Fox team to do that now-the pre-war quality of the team staff is by no means something that can be formed in a day or two.

Therefore, the pre-game pressure can only be overcome by the players themselves!

March 22nd, afternoon.

The Nine-Tailed Fox team completed their last regular training at the team's base, and boarded the plane to the GIGABYTE International Electronic Technology Park with Xiaoya preparing various pastries and snacks......

The voyage of more than three months and hours is not near or far.

When I arrived at GIGABYTE International Electronics Park, it was dinner time.

The Nine-Tailed Fox team did not go to the restaurant arranged by the organizer for dinner, but ate the pastries brought by Xiaoya and continued to complete today's training......

Tomorrow at half past two in the afternoon, it will be the opening ceremony.

This will be followed by a series of events and interviews with journalists.

What can be predicted is that the time left for them to train before the game will be less and less every day!

It's past nine o'clock in the evening. Chen Bin took the whole team out of Lu to go shopping, and went to find something to eat by the way......

The GIGABYTE Invitational is an exclusive points event for sword fighting. And no other games participated, however. Even if it's an exclusive event, it's already bustling outside, and the Electronic Technology Park was originally a very quiet and deserted place every day, but because of a week-long competition, it ushered in hardware manufacturers, software manufacturers, various media, and new game booths from all over the world.

Small gifts were being distributed at every booth, and there were even direct events at the booth to give away tickets to the Gigabyte Invitational!

Therefore, the entire electronic technology garden is noisy until more than nine o'clock in the evening, and it is still very lively!

For Chen Bin, Lan Bai and Lin Wei, GIGABYTE Electronics Technology Garden. It's not the first time they've been here, and this place boils down to one sentence - no food.

Because each company in the park has its own restaurant, unlike other competition venues, there are many delicious and fun things, and this is a relatively closed competition venue.

However, the advantages of veteran professional players are also reflected in eating, drinking, and having fun......

After coming out of the Electronic Technology Garden, about a few hundred meters after seven bends and eight turns, Chen Bin led the whole team into a restaurant that looked good.

Because there are still a lot of people in the restaurant. They had to ask for a cubicle.

"I'm dizzy, there are so many people outside!" As soon as Eternal Night sat down, he sighed, "I thought. An exclusive event for sword fighting, there won't be so many people to watch the battle. ”

"Sword Battles is now the game with the largest number of players, and the flow of people like exclusive events is normal." Yongqilin Road.

"Ugh. That, maybe this year's 10th anniversary of the sword war. There will also be official events. "Mecha Road.

"Moreover, the Gigabyte Invitational is the first points event of the year...... "Blue and White Road." There is a saying that the plan of the year lies in ...... Spring? ”

The first points event of the 10th anniversary of the sword battle has received more attention than before.

In fact, Chen Bin and the others also clearly felt that there were indeed a lot more players watching this year's Gigabyte Invitational than in previous years......

The fan groups of the major teams are also rushing to the scene one after another.

"Ha Luha," said Yongye, "in the spring we dig a pit and plant a champion, and in the autumn we can harvest many, many champions!" ”

"Makes sense!" Xiao Cang touched the cup with Lin Wei.

"That's right, the first title of the year has to be won without a hitch, then the second, then the third, until, the Grand Slam!" The whole team touched each other with their glasses, laughing loudly and cheering.

Chen Bin and Lan Bai glanced at each other and nodded.

The Nine-Tailed Fox was still a little nervous when they were at the team base, but after arriving at the competition site, they quickly sank themselves into a cheerful and enthusiastic atmosphere.

The pre-match pressure from before shouldn't have had much impact on them, right?

……

Although the accommodation and food conditions of the GIGABYTE Invitational are not as good as those of other points events, there is only one condition that is better than other regular points events, and that is the training venue.

GIGABYTE Robotics Park provides a separate training space for each team, so they can train anytime and anywhere in the middle of a match, without having to share a training room with other teams.

The Nine-Tailed Fox team went to complete their regular training first thing after breakfast early the next morning.

It wasn't until after 11 o'clock in the afternoon that they went to the restaurant arranged by the organizer to meet with the players from other teams.

The venue of the opening ceremony was arranged in the "Sun Moon Lake Plaza" in the GIGABYTE Electronics Technology Park!

Sun Moon Lake Square is also the only one of all the regular points events throughout the year, the open-air arena!

Because it's an open-air venue, the Gigabyte Invitational takes place differently every year, as they have to consider the weather compared to the indoor arena......

After Chen Bin entered the arena, he immediately found the player's seat next to the main stage.

The players of all the teams are basically here.

At this year's Gigabyte Invitational, there are really a lot of new faces......

Two newcomers appeared in the Sky Blade team, the Buyun team directly replaced four people, and the newcomer Li Xue from the Rainbow team brought out by Lin Wei directly became the captain, except for the lineup of the Red Nest team, almost all of the other teams had team members adjusted.

However, the most eye-catching thing is a new team that is participating in the points event for the first time this year - the Twelve Ancestral Witches!

If you want to talk about newcomers, they are not newcomers in the whole team. No matter which one comes out, it is a familiar name in the e-sports circle. Everyone in the ten-man roster is a top god who has stood on the podium of their respective game championships.

But to speak of newcomers. They are really newcomers in the sword battle project......

Soon, all the 12 teams invited to participate in this year's GIGABYTE Invitational have arrived!

On the bright glass stage in spring, Dora Aqiu, the senior stage host of the sword battle, has already stood up.

The opening ceremony of the GIGABYTE Invitational is not only the opening ceremony of a competition, but also the clarion call for a fierce battle in the new year!

"Hello everyone!" Dora Autumn bathes in the warm spring sunshine and stands on the open-air stage. I was also very excited, "Another year of war is about to begin...... Let's first welcome the twelve teams invited to participate in this year's GIGABYTE Invitational - Red Nest Team, God Slayer Team, Berserk Team, Nine-Tailed Fox Team, Twelve Ancestral Witch Team, Sky Blade Team, Rainbow Team, Buyun Team, Battle Ge Team, Dragon Yin Team, Tingxiang Pavilion Team, and Thorn Bird Team! ”

The scene immediately burst into warm applause.

Chen Bin and all the players on their side stood up and waved to the fans in all directions.

Sun Moon Lake Square was filled with the screams and singing of fans......

The youthful enthusiasm and joy under the bright sunshine are not only the fans themselves. Even the players and staff were gradually infected.

It's just that on the player's seat, there are many professional players who have come over from the early days of sword fighting. They all looked at each other silently.

Relative to the excitement of the others, they tacitly noticed the same problem......

This year's participating teams. A familiar name is missing.

"Alas, the Watershed Troopers are really not coming?" Blue and white Chen Bin turned his head. glanced at Chen Bin.

"Since it didn't appear on the schedule, it wasn't reported by the host. I guess it's really not coming. Chen Bin nodded.

Except for Chen Bin and other professional players who have experienced the most glorious era of the river basin, not many people have noticed that at the competition event of the 10th anniversary of the sword war, the earliest, strongest and top team in the professional circle, the river basin team, silently disappeared from the list......

"Actually, this is the world of competition, and there is no hundred days of redness!" Chen Bin's gaze was firm and cold, and he would never want the nine-tailed fox to follow in the footsteps of the river basin one day.

"It's a pity...... "Blue and white, the early players, still remember when they were not yet famous, the River Reclamation Team was a team they looked up to.

However, after the incident of Liang Xiaoze digging a pit and burying people, two of the three top gods of the river basin team retired, one of the competitive states was unbalanced, and the team fell apart, and in recent years, even the ten-person roster has not been completed.

And then until this year, the name of the watershed has completely become history!

The audience was still enthusiastic......

All the flowers and applause, belong only to the winner!

Looking at the enthusiastic reactions of the young faces on the scene, the stage host Dora Aqiu also got into the state even more: "Okay, then let's invite the captain of the god-killing team, Fang Chenqiu, on behalf of all the sword fighters, to make a pre-game oath for us!" ”

Fang Chenqiu!

Although he is also one of the four main gods of sword fighting, due to the limitations of the previous god-killing team, he has never appeared on the main stage of the opening ceremony once, and made a pre-match oath on behalf of all the players!

The pre-game oath is actually some oath of friendship first, competition second and so on.

However, this is not something that just anyone can do on stage......

In the past, such an oath was usually recited by Chen Bin or Ye Jiaoyang, but this year, Fang Chenqiu finally appeared in this position, which can be regarded as expected!

"Team Chen, Team Chen, hello ......" When the whole team of the nine-tailed fox was watching the opening ceremony, a staff member with a sign on his chest ran over.

"Hello, what's the matter?" Chen Bin's gaze immediately turned back from the stage and Fang Chenqiu.

"Over there...... Uh, I'm in a bit of trouble," the staff member said embarrassedly, "Lao Yang would like to ask you to be the guest commentator for the exhibition match later, is it convenient?" ”

"An exhibition match at the opening ceremony?" Chen Bin glanced down at the process arrangement of the opening ceremony, "The exhibition match between the god killer and the twelve ancestors, heh, it's a bit difficult." ”

King's idea is very good, with an exhibition match, a little bit of the Twelve Ancestors, so that they can get the attention of the sponsors at the opening ceremony - just like last year's CES League, he arranged for the nine-tailed fox and the red nest to play an exhibition match.

However, for the commentary, it is a bit troublesome......

One is a team that has been silent for I don't know how many years and just reorganized last year, and the other is a team that has never shown its head in the sword battle circle.

There is too little information on both teams......

I guess even the senior commentator thinks that it may be a little difficult to explain such a game, right?

However, Yang Yuchen and Tang Yiyao have this benefit, as long as they feel that it is difficult, they will definitely not pretend to understand, and they will directly ask for help from the field.

Since it is in the commentary seat, it is the most important thing to bring clear and accurate commentary to the audience!

"That's," the staff member hurriedly smiled, "If it's not difficult, Lao Yang won't let me call you quickly......"

"Okay, you go back to them first, I'll go over right away!" Chen Bin picked up his coat, went to prepare it first, and then went to the commentary seat to do a little favor
