"Ladies and gentlemen......" with a simple greeting that fluctuated spiritually, quickly calmed down the boiling crowd. Nian Qianyao said loudly: "After two days of competition, we finally ushered in the most exciting moment......
The audience's attention was attracted by Nian Qianyao, and the contestants also collected their mood and looked towards the rostrum.
After talking for a few minutes, Nian Qianyao turned to the topic: "...... I think everyone can't wait, and I'm eager to see these fifteen elites fight, so I won't say any more nonsense, so I'll repeat the basic rules and start playing. ”
Nian Qianyao was already familiar with the rules of the game, and he didn't need to bother to organize his words, so he blurted out: "The so-called spell competition is naturally only the use of spells, and any means other than spells, once used, it will be considered a foul." However, the footwork of moving and dodging is not among them. ”
Most alchemists don't practice martial arts, but there are a few who are interested in martial arts because of the exercises they have learned, either to strengthen their bodies, or to improve the efficiency of their spells in battle.
Of course, the alchemist who practices martial arts only uses martial arts as an auxiliary to combat spells, coupled with the limitations of time, energy, resources and other conditions, martial arts is in a secondary position in the life of an alchemist, and it is by no means like Han Chen, who can have both fish and bear's paws.
This rule is designed for alchemists with martial arts roots, after all, this is a spell competition between alchemists, and if martial arts are used, it will become an unlimited field battle.
However, alchemists who have practiced martial arts must have higher physical agility than ordinary alchemists, even if the use of martial arts is restricted, the skills trained by practicing martial arts are enough to give them a considerable advantage in spell battles.
Nian Qianyao continued: "The competition is to consider the alchemist's mana application level, so it is strictly forbidden to use all kinds of equipment - including magic weapons, weapons, armor, elixirs, and so on.
All means must be based on the use of mana, which is the second basic rule. ”
"You are the example of the empire, and you must always pay attention to your influence, so it is strictly forbidden to use the methods and evil techniques of the lower three indiscriminate methods in the game, and it is strictly forbidden to attack opponents who have lost their ability to fight. Win or lose, there must be no insults or provocative behavior. This is the third cardinal rule. ”
"In each match, the solo time is 15 minutes, and the mixed battle is doubled. The winner is decided by knockout, admitting defeat, and deciding in three ways. Staring at the players on the field, Nian Qianyao asked solemnly, "Is there anything you don't understand?"
The detailed rules have long been written to each player, and the conference will be mentioned again before the tournament as usual, mainly to let the audience know the basic situation, and there are usually very few low-quality players who do not read the rule book.
Fifteen people shook their heads in unison.
Nian Qianyao nodded and said, "Okay, I hope everyone strictly abides by the rules and plays their best." As he spoke, he waved to the bottom of the arena, and several referees walked up to the court, and the staff behind him carried a large wooden box and placed it in front of the players.
Nian Qianyao said: "According to the usual practice, please choose a one-time group battle or a one-on-one single-elimination battle. ”
The reason for the choice of group warfare is precisely because of the great role of alchemists in group warfare. Because of the exercises they practiced, some alchemists are not outstanding in solo combat, but in group battles, they can show incomparable strength. The option of hybrid warfare is to give these people a chance to play to their strengths.
But both types of players definitely want to fight in the way they are good at, and for the sake of fairness, the choice of method must be decided by all players.
A female alchemist with a rather heroic appearance stepped out first, she bowed to Nian Qianyao, and said loudly: "The Northern General's Mansion has been marching for generations, and it is best at group combat, so I choose to compete in mixed warfare." ”
The person who spoke was none other than Tu Xuejiao, a three-star intermediate alchemist known as the "cold-faced princess" of the Beijiang Mansion.
After expressing her wishes, Tu Xuejiao glanced at Han Chen intentionally or unintentionally. Han Chen didn't feel anything unusual, but Zhen'er on the side suddenly jumped a few times in his heart.
The deep uneasiness that I felt when I woke up in the morning came back to my heart.
She couldn't help but hold Han Chen's arm.
"The three representatives of the Daikin family unanimously choose to fight in groups!"
Immediately after Tu Xuejiao, the three of them lined up side by side. Tu Xuejiao and the three of them made eye contact, and they all showed a meaningful smile.
Zhen'er's heart is beating again.
"I also choose to fight in groups. "This time it was Ye Xuan who spoke.
As soon as the words fell, Shen Lin also stood up: "Fighting alone is losing the identity of an alchemist, of course I chose to fight in a group." ”
"Seconded!" Yi Yun stood aside with Shen Lin and the others with an indifferent expression.
Whispers rang out from the audience.
In the eyes of the audience, the three players of the Daikin family must be very effective in cooperating, and it is logical for them to choose a group battle. And Ye Xuan's cultivation is too low, and there is absolutely no chance of winning alone, if he fights in a group, he can be protected by other players, so his choice is reasonable.
As for Shen Lin and Yi Yun, everyone couldn't understand it.
With the strength of the two of them, if they go head-to-head, anyone may be in the top three, but if there is a scuffle, there will be many accidents, and if they are not hit by several opponents at once, they will have to be eliminated.
Originally, one-on-one was more secure, but both of them chose group battles, how can this not be puzzling?
Every time a player chooses a group battle, Zhen'er's heart has to be tightened once.
She didn't know why she was upset, but a woman's instinct told her that these people had bad intentions towards Han Chen.
In this way, seven of the fifteen people chose to fight in groups, and as long as there was one more person, more than half of them would be played, and the final round of spell competitions would be conducted in the form of group battles.
Nian Qianyao looked at the other eight people who didn't make a choice and asked, "Are you going to choose a single-elimination tournament?"
Tu Xuejiao's brows furrowed, and she squinted at Qi Buchen.
Qi Buchen's face was cloudy. For him, whether it is a group battle or a heads-up, he has absolute confidence to win the final victory. However, the order of the shaman made him extremely unhappy.
He really wanted to go against Shen Yuanlong, but he knew in his heart that the reason why Shen Yuanlong agreed to cooperate with the Northern General's Mansion to deal with Han Chen was to find an opportunity to cut his power within the shamanic sect, and if he disobeyed, Shen Yuanlong would have an excuse to make trouble.
There must be no handle in the hands of the other party!
Taking a deep breath angrily, Qi Buchen said helplessly: "I choose mixed warfare. ”
Zhen'er's heart shrank fiercely.
The crowd was in an uproar, and even some of the contestants seemed to be surprised.
The corners of Tu Xuejiao's eyebrows loosened, and the corners of her mouth raised an imperceptible arc.
The strange look in Nian Qianyao's eyes flashed, he nodded, and said: "Okay, fifteen players, eight people choose to fight in groups, more than half, then this spell competition will be decided by means of group battles!"
Group battles are not all players fighting on the field, which does not reflect the value of alchemists, but through the drawing of lots, the players are divided into two factions, the winning side, depending on the number of people, and then the second round of selection until the only winner is determined.
This is a winning method that is both good and bad. The bad thing is that due to the great variability of group warfare, it is not uncommon for one person to be attacked by several people, so that the final champion and the subsequent ranking may not be the best ones.
In other words, pure individual strength is not an absolute factor in ensuring victory in a group battle, and strategy, tactics, and even luck can determine the direction of the game, which is why players with strong strength are reluctant to choose group battles.
And the disadvantages also have a good side, those people who stand at the tip of the pyramid, which one is not a proud person? Which one does not pay attention to his reputation and face? They are similar in strength, they have not really fought, and no one can tell which is stronger or weaker, but heads-up is necessary to divide the winner and loser, and then it is really divided into one, two, three, who is not as good as who is clear at a glance, and the face will not be able to pass.
The ranking of the group war is not so clear, it is defeat, and it cannot clearly represent the strength or weakness of a certain person, they can still maintain their fame and status in the controversy of the people.
What's more, those second- and third-tier players also have the opportunity to compete for rankings.
"Come and draw lots! The three-star intermediate alchemist will draw first. A referee next to the wooden box beckoned.
In order to equalize the strength of the two sides as much as possible, the rules stipulate that if the battle is mixed, players with different cultivation skills must be evenly distributed between the two sides. Therefore, after the three-star intermediate alchemist divides the sides, let the three-star junior alchemist draw lots again.
Tu Xuejiao walked over first, and as soon as she reached out, she took out a blue ball from the mouth of the box less than a foot wide.
The wooden box has been specially treated, and the outside is engraved with runes, and its shielding power is so strong that it is a five-star alchemist, and it cannot be detected through spiritual sense, which is a good way to prevent cheating incidents.
"Tu Xuejiao, Lan Fang. ”
Tu Xuejiao held the blue ball high, one of the referees on both sides announced loudly, and the other took a pen to make a record.
The referee motioned for Tu Xuejiao to stand on the right side of the field, Tu Xuejiao handed the ball back to the referee, and as soon as she walked away, Shen Lin strode up.
Catch it in the wooden box, and it is also a blue ball.
Without the referee reading it, he walked to Tu Xuejiao's side on his own.
Looking at each other and smiling, Shen Lin said: "We are comrades-in-arms, how much support!"
Tu Xuejiao responded politely: "It's a great honor to admire the name for a long time. ”
In a short time, all the three-star intermediate alchemists had drawn lots.
