Chapter 36: The Balu Cup Begins
Come to the unicorn's barn. Supersonic has already been released. The current supersonic speed is very different from before, the body size has changed from thin to strong, and the scales and colors on the body have gradually become silver, and they have begun to move closer to the direction of the bright unicorn.
"When I visited these places before, I was eager to have my own mount and a professional training ground."
Su Ning said with interest.
Noel took out a machine, tied a few straps to the supersonic's body, and a flat panel display in his hand, in which a string of data appeared, he looked at it and said, "Boss, the supersonic's weight is maintained perfectly, the fat content and proportion are just right, its physical fitness is simply beyond my expectations, I have been a hunter for so many years, and I have never seen a unicorn reach this level." ”
"With such physical fitness, if a professional mount trainer is tuned, the competitive level of supersonic can be improved by at least two more grades. I'm afraid that those top mount training centers will have a hard time finding a few level 4 mounts with such a perverted body. Rayson added.
Xiao Lin thought about it and felt that this was very reasonable, even though supersonic has the mutation ability to transform, many of it comes from instinct, and there is still a lot of room for improvement in terms of skills.
"When the Balu Cup is over, I'll find a top training team for it."
Su Ning gently stroked Supersonic's head and back, and Supersonic, not only did Supersonic not make any drastic moves, but became relaxed and happy.
Xiao Lin was stunned, although he had his own control, the comfortable expression of supersonic speed was obviously from the heart, and it had nothing to do with him, but because of Su Ning.
Su Ning seemed to hear the doubts in his heart, and said with a slight smile, "I have learned some special massage techniques that can relax creatures before, and one of them happens to be about unicorns, which seems to be really useful." ”
"Such an amazing ......"
Then, Xiao Lin and Su Ning apologized, and began to devote themselves to focused training with SuperSonics, Noel and Rayson would correct their mistakes and remind them of some details that needed attention from time to time.
Su Ning didn't feel bored, so she sat quietly in the far corner, playing with the two little guys, Da Lei and Pisces, while watching, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.
The training lasted until the evening, originally Xiao Lin wanted Su Ning to stay for a meal before leaving, but she still had work to do, as for the Balu Cup, I don't know if there is time to come over to cheer, but I still agreed with Xiao Lin that if he can enter the finals of the Balu Cup, he must keep the tickets, and she will try to ask for leave to come and see.
……
Three days later, the Balu Cup was held as scheduled.
Although it is not as good as the most famous C-level competition, the Dadi Cup, but the Balu Cup is also one of the few amateur mount races in Uto Town and even in the nearby star field, the whole event will last for half a month, many fans of the horse race in the Azure Star Field will come to watch the game, and for the planet of Uto, it is also a considerable event, many local beasts and private mount owners will come to participate in the competition.
The day before the race, SuperSonics was transported to the Utopian Event Center by a professional transport vehicle sent by the Race Committee, where they got used to the environment, after all, SuperSonics had been training in Star Farms.
The area of the event center is quite vast, divided into dozens of competition venues, and there are various supporting facilities such as medical centers and management centers, as well as accommodation, food, entertainment and consumption, which is simply a small city.
The event center is usually used to host various competitions, including mount competitions, but it is only used in less than one-third of the area and part of the venue, which shows the size of the event center.
Before the start of the Bahru Cup, there will be a simple opening ceremony, which is roughly for the competitors and mounts to take turns to show their faces, and then the sponsor of the event, the Balu family, will come out to make a speech, and finally there will be the highlights of the last year's competition and the appearance of the trophy.
Although the competition is only a D-level amateur competition, the scale and prize money are very important, and the heavy golden grand trophy alone is enough to make people covetous.
The Balu Cup is sprinkled with more than a dozen groups and competitions, each with at least hundreds of people and mounts participating, and the entire event lasts up to fifteen days, from the preliminaries to the finals, whether it is for mounts or riders, logistical support, medical teams, etc.
Then there will be a draw, and all the people on Xiao Lin's side have arrived in this competition, not only the housekeeper came, but even Yang Yanchang, who had just recovered from injury and was discharged from the hospital, came to watch.
In the life level three to five groups, the unicorn is not a common participating mount, because this kind of mount is really ordinary and widely popular in the Human Federation, and the most precious of them is the bright unicorn, which is notoriously "flashy", in addition to its gorgeous appearance, physical fitness and other data are very average.
Creatures like the Grass Camel, Thornclaw Leopard, Windstorm, Galloping Three-Tailed Horse, and Nightmare Marten are the main players in this level of competition, and among the popular seeds, there are many mounts worth hundreds of thousands or even millions of Star Coins.
As for jockeys, as an amateur competition, two-thirds of them are driven by the owner like Xiao Lin, but one-third of them are selected to participate in the competition by specialized jockeys or hunters.
On the first day of supersonic there was a race in the "off-road class".
A blood test was taken three hours in advance to check the mount for illegal drugs, as well as a full medical examination, before Supersonic was allowed to be taken to the playing field.
When entering the venue, Xiao Lin also had to be checked to make sure that he did not bring in any electronic devices, only a traditional map machine provided by the tournament committee.
Beside them, there is also a bird-like machine called a hummingbird-shaped recorder, which can not only track the players' game footage at any time, but also play a role in supervision.
The preliminaries were not crowded by a large number of spectators, and were usually only attended by friends of the competitors and mounts, as well as some loyal fans of the mounts, as well as local residents.
The cross-country competition is a large venue, almost built around a mountain, and it is simply a lush forest, and the spectators are located on a high platform, and the competition venue is located on low ground, so that you can overlook the race from a high place and have an unobstructed view.
And at the top, there is also a large screen projection, on which is the official live broadcast of the game, if you want to follow a certain mount or player in real time, then there is a screen in the VIP first class seat in the infield, you can choose to connect to the hummingbird recorder, and see the performance of each player at any time.
