Chapter 579: Top 8 vs. [Two in One]
On the ring, the thin man who had just won jumped down, and the crowd in the audience had already begun to discuss his identity.
As a new top 8 player, he didn't pay attention to the speculation of the onlookers, turned around and walked in the direction of the [Martial Arts Club Rest Hall].
And right behind him, Han Zheng and his cousin slowly walked out from the back of the crowd.
"It should be that Pingbu...... "The cousin leaned over and whispered, "...... The looks are very similar. β
"That's right, it's him...... Wang Qingyun ......"
Han Zheng looked at his back from afar, whether it was from his appearance or from the number on the [Data Attribute], he could confirm that he was Wang Qingyun!
When he first saw Wang Qingyun, Han Zheng was still a little surprised, the last time he met each other in the living area, he only had hundreds of millions of combat power.
Now goodbye, he has reached the top 8 in the martial arts meeting of [Little Trial], and the total combat power has reached as much as 15 billion!
The speed of progress was somewhat unexpected by Han Zheng.
However, it can also be seen from his data that 8% of his 15 billion combat power is [hidden combat power], and it must be that in this short period of time, he devoured one or several [rare numbers], resulting in a significant increase in combat power.
But even so, this Wang Qingyun is still the weakest one among the top 8 at present.
"That's right......" Han Zheng turned his head and leaned into his cousin's ear: "Private chat messages are allowed in the [Martial Arts Club] dungeon, you try to send him a message and see how he reacts." β
Just before entering the [Little Trial], the network of contact between the cousin and Wang Qingyun had been established, but the other party never replied to any messages, so people couldn't see what he was planning.
"And what do I say?"
"Just say - congratulations on advancing to the quarterfinals......" Han Zheng rolled his eyes: "...... See how he reacts? β
The cousin immediately recruited, and two seconds later, Wang Qingyun, who had almost walked to the gate of the venue, suddenly stopped.
Then he quickly turned back and kept looking at the crowd in the venue.
Although they were far away, Han Zheng could still clearly see the panic on Wang Qingyun's face.
"He still hasn't replied......," said the cousin next to him.
At the same time, after Wang Qingyun glanced around the venue, he had to snort heavily when he couldn't find anything, this news brought him a sense of danger under the surveillance of people at all times, and made him goosebumps all over his body.
The next moment, he gave up this pointless search and hurried out of the venue.
"The qualifiers of this martial arts meeting are officially over, please return to the [rest hall] next to the side to rest and eat, and please prepare for the 8 finalists, the draw ceremony for the top 8 will start at 8 o'clock tomorrow......"
At this time, the proclamation began to resound throughout the venue, and dozens of fighters returned to the [Rest Hall] with their own hearts.
"Let's go back too, it seems that he is more careful than I thought......" Looking at Wang Qingyun who was walking away, Han Zheng shook his head slightly, and then left the venue with his cousin.
Compared with the previous ones, the "rest hall" of this event has become more luxurious and comfortable, and it is also more "multi-functional".
In addition to the restaurant and more than 80 individual rooms, there are also leisure halls, entertainment halls and many other places on the lower two floors.
The entertainment hall, in particular, was simply beyond everyone's expectations.
At the entrance of the entertainment hall, Bulma, aged 16-33, stood in a row, each dressed up in the various stages of Bulma's appearance in the original book (including the Umega Umekawa Uchiku type when he first met the turtle immortal), and greeted the contestants who came by sweetly.
And on the electronic screen at the door, there are scrolling instructions for [Entertainment Hall] -
According to the setting, this "welfare-type service" is unique to this [Martial Arts Club], and the combatants can freely choose various [dungeon characters] in front of the service desk in this hall, and open up various themed spaces such as "love room", "romantic beach", "wild wheat field", etc., to carry out some entertainment activities to relax and cultivate sentiment......
A group of losers who had just been beaten in the qualifiers smiled when they saw this scene and entered the hall one after another to "release the pressure".
Captain Tang, who was defeated in the first round of the qualifiers, ordered a bulma and a bula to enter the "private space......
And Vice President Hong, who also failed miserably, ordered Sun Wuhan and Sun Wutian brothers......
Verkinko came to the front desk and hesitated for a long time before choosing a future Tenanx......
For a while, from the door of the entertainment hall to the front desk, there were bursts of laughter from time to time......
At this moment, Han Zheng didn't have the heart to wander around, he secretly ordered [Da Buu] and [Mysterious Gohan] to stay on the first and second floors respectively, responsible for checking the other people's entry and exit movements.
He ordered a meal and quickly returned to his upstairs room.
Although the three of them successfully advanced to the top 8, many situations in the qualifiers still greatly surprised Han Zheng.
Among the top 8, in addition to their own side, among the remaining 5 people, there are only two legion commanders...... Originally, Han Zheng thought that the top 8 would only be divided between himself and other army commanders, but he didn't expect that there would be so many unexpected spoilers.
In addition to Wang Qingyun, the other two top 8 players, No. 39 Masked Man and No. 23 Verginko, really reassured Han Zheng.
As the only masked participant in this competition, No. 39 has not been beaten off from beginning to end, and even a super-first-class master like the [Beidou] Legion Commander cannot let his true face be exposed, and his strength can be seen.
In addition to his strong combat power, this masked man is also named [Old Rare Number], and Han Zheng can't check his data at all, understand its fiction and reality.
An opponent who doesn't know anything about it is really uncomfortable.
And the other person, Verginko, although his data is clearly in front of his eyes, Han Zheng is still a little worried.
Not to mention the fleeting "weird feeling" on him, it is very suspicious to say that he looked at him after the second game.
Han Zheng sat in the room, carefully recalled, and confirmed that he had indeed never seen Verginko in his true face.
But in the eyes of the other party looking at him, it was indeed as if he was familiar......
Han Zheng couldn't even help but wonder - could this Verkinko be pretended by Qi Shaodong?
Or, what kind of possession will Qi Shaodong have?
After all, Virkinko is Qi Shaodong's deputy, and it's hard not to think about it.
However, I have learned about Qi Shaodong and the abilities of the people in green from the man in green, and I have never heard of such a buggy ability, but it cannot be ruled out that Qi Shaodong obtained this ability in the later harvest......
Just as he was thinking, the food delivery waiter had arrived, and Han Zheng looked at this plate full of delicacies, so he simply put these troubles aside for the time being, grabbed his chopsticks and feasted on them.
Perhaps, when it comes to tomorrow's top 8 matches, everything will be known.
While eating, Han Zheng opened the status bar and turned on the remaining time of [Mystic Gohan], which was decreasing by second......
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
γLoungeγOn the first floor of the building, there is a spacious conference hall.
The 7 legion leaders who participated in this [Martial Arts Meeting] were sitting together, each face was full of gloom, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
"Unexpected...... Alcindo looked at the silent crowd with their heads bowed, snorted, and spoke first:
ββ¦β¦ The dignified top ten army commanders, today has become a joke, among the 7 of us, only Deng Jue and I have entered the top 8, before we were talking about how to monopolize the reward resources of [Little Trial] at the meeting, now looking back, it's just ironic! β
Listening to the shouts of the [Iron Hook] Legion Commander, the 5 defeated Legion Commanders lowered their heads one after another, and Deng Jue, who also advanced to the top 8, wanted to say something, but in the end he still didn't speak.
"It's really a miscalculation, there are too many unexpected masters...... "Cobb was the first to break the embarrassing atmosphere: "...... The person who beat me in the No. 1 ring has almost never been seen before, but he has the strength of [Super Three]! β
"Also, the vicious big man who beat me......" Liu Wan also spoke: "...... Not only is he strong, but he is clearly of the Demon Buu bloodline, and many people are talking about it now, suspecting that Qi Shaodong came to participate in disguise......"
"Joke!" Alcindo interrupted it loudly: "Does Qi Shaodong still need to compete in disguise?" Moreover, based on my induction, the strength of that big man is far inferior to Qi Shaodong...... It's just that this person is indeed of demon blood...... It's a bit of a hassle......"
"And that glasses man, I can't tell the level of his strength at all......" Keaton, who was defeated by [Mystic Gohan], also said: "...... His aura is [Saiyan], but that strength is ...... I'm afraid it's beyond the level of [Super Three]......"
"Could it be a powerhouse of the [Mystic Gohan] bloodline? No way? β
"Mystic Gohan?" The rest of the people changed color in unison.
"It's no longer impossible for things to get to this point...... Alsindo smiled bitterly: "...... The only good news is that Qi Shaodong did not participate in the [Little Trial]. β
"By the way, there is also the masked one, at least he is also a [Super Three] master...... How did so many strange masters emerge at once when the end of the epoch was approaching? β
"Alas......" Looking at the dejected crowd, Alcindo sighed: "Now it seems that except for Verkinko and the person in the No. 8 ring, everyone else is a master, and tomorrow will be a fierce battle!" β
Deng Jue on the side couldn't help nodding.
The faces of the two top 8 players sank at the same time.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In the private room on the fourth floor, the masked man of the top 8 contestants slowly took off his towel and washed his face.
"Tuk-tuk-"
And just as he walked out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door.
As if he knew who was knocking on the door, the masked man said, "Let's go back, I'm going to be alone before the top 8, so go back to each of you." β
Although his voice was not loud, it vaguely revealed a little superior's momentum.
Soon, the outside of the door calmed down again.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Also on the 4th floor, another piece of room.
Wang Qingyun opened the [Contact Network List], and he tried to open the dialogue channel with Han Lei several times, but finally chose to give up.
Subsequently, Wang Qingyun took out a photo from his arms, in which he and his father laughed heartily, and the blue sky behind him was clear.
He sighed, put the photo away, and then turned off the [contact network].
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Entertainment hall on the first floor, in an intimate space.
Dressed in women's clothes and wearing a wig, Tenanx stood in front of Verginko's bed.
After looking up and down, Verginko's eyes couldn't help but flash with a look of disappointment, and he shook his head tastelessly......
β¦β¦
There is still one day left before the top 8, and all 8 players are preparing for tomorrow's big battle in their own ways......
β¦β¦
Early the next morning.
The wall clock on the wall has come to 7:55.
After a bell, the chime sounded quicklyβ
[No. N2199 combatants, please hurry to Budoji Temple, the draw ceremony for the top 8 is about to begin]
Han Zheng, who was meditating, quickly stood up and pushed the door out of the room.
Before leaving the door, he opened his [Status Bar] again-
At this moment, there was only a little over an hour left before the opening of his [Mystic Gohan] lineage......
As in the previous [Martial Arts Club], in the Martial Arts Temple, the sunglasses referee came to the front of the 8 players with the lottery box.
Eight players gathered here to draw lots one by one.
During this period, Han Zheng wanted [Da Buu] to use magic to try to interfere with the results of the lottery, but in the end, he was warned by the dungeon and failed.
At the same time, Han Zheng noticed that this time to participate in the [Martial Arts Meeting], Wang Qingyun did not use the name "Pingbu", but changed his name to "Yunqing".
And [Da Buu] and [Mysterious Gohan], under Han Zheng's instructions, called themselves "Oubu" and "Qi Sheng (Qisheng)" respectively.
As for Han Zheng himself, he generously reported his usual name - Zheng Han!
Soon, the draw ended, and the matchup table was as follows-
[Scene 1] - Vilkinko VS Yunqing (Wang Qingyun)
[Second Scene] - Deng Jue VS Qi Sheng (Mysterious Gohan)
[Match 3] - Zheng Han VS Alcindo
[Scene 4] - Masked Man VS Orb (Big Buu)
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
In the first round, he actually played against Alcindo...... Han Zheng frowned slightly, this [Iron Hook] Legion Leader is extremely powerful, and he may not be able to pass the test so easily.
As for the [Mysterious Gohan] against Deng Jue, most of the problems of promotion are not big...... But the [Big Buu] one, maybe you can let yourself see how powerful the masked man is......
After a short break, the [Martial Arts Club] Top 8 Tournament officially kicked off!
Outside the open-air ring, it was already boiling, and all the losers of the qualifiers gathered here, waiting for the game to begin.
"Next, the first game of the top 8!" The sunglasses referee held the microphone and shouted: "Virkinko and Yunqing players are invited to appear!" β
With this summons, Vilkinko and Wang Qingyun stepped into the ring one after another, each standing on one side.
Wang Qingyun quickly put on a posture, and at the same time, sweat oozed from his forehead...... Vilkinko, on the other hand, looked like he was in a good position and did not make any gestures.
On the player's bench behind the ring, Han Zheng couldn't help but lean forward.
Virginko's secret situation may soon be revealed......
"Game on!"
