Chapter 709: An emaciated camel is bigger than a horse
In order to prevent the contestants from colluding privately, the list of matchups in the Seven Nations Qualifying Tournament is determined by drawing lots on the spot. Among the nine gold medal summoners, only one did not need to participate in the battle and advanced directly to the second round.
Victory can become a hero of the empire, and defeat will become a disgrace to the empire. It was precisely because of this thinking that in the previous week's competition, the silver medal dragon summoners from the Seven Empires fought to the death, and they all seemed to be playing with their lives. However, compared to the gold medal dragon summoners, the destructive power and lethality of those silver medal dragon summoners are a bit insignificant. The gold medal dragon summoner is-for-tat, and the result is inevitably a lose-lose situation.
Therefore, whoever can get a bye in this round will be able to enter the next game in full swing. Everyone hurt me, such a physical and psychological state is too beneficial for the next game, so even the five kings who are not smiling on weekdays (there are no gold medal dragon summoners in the Delai Empire) inevitably exposed an ugly face like a gambler when drawing lots, and clenched their fists around the jade pot that was released and shouted: "Bye! Bye!"
"Yay!" As the eight jade sticks with the names of the contestants were drawn out one after another, King Einstein of the First Empire couldn't help but show an excited, excited, and extremely proud smile, and then deliberately said in a disapproving tone: "I have the most gold medal dragon summoners in the Irons Empire, accounting for three out of nine, and it is normal to draw a bye." I hope you don't get discouraged, I believe that strength is definitely more important than luck. ”
"yes, yes. Since everything was a foregone conclusion, the kings were naturally embarrassed to tear apart in front of everyone, so Nobel XX, while inviting five kings, including King Newton of the Delai Empire, to sit and watch the game, said to the heralds waiting aside: "Sign at the table, the game begins." ”
When the sound of "The game has officially begun!" that resounded through the Imperial Martial Arts Arena drifted away in the wind, the first pair of gold medal dragon summoners appeared on the east and west sides of the martial arts arena one after another. But seeing that they waved their big hands, four giant dragons of similar size but different skin colors rushed out of the cyclone leading to the soul house at the same time, and before the battle started, they roared at each other as if they were standing on both sides of the Chu River and Han Realm, obviously wanting to gain the upper hand before the battle!
After a few moments, the two gold medal dragon summoners finished saluting, then climbed onto the dragon's back, rode on the dragon's neck, and grabbed the rough reins that wore on a piece of dragon scales, and then drew their swords and shouted, "Kill——!
When the four dragons are entangled together, the indestructible flesh is mixed with invincible magic and fighting spirit, first fighting from the ground to the clouds, and then from the sky back to the ground. In the pinnacle battle against common sense, the melon-eating masses couldn't help but beg the heavens reverently in this gust of wind and ground movement, so that the four dragons would be as far away from them as possible!
Ordinary people regard the battle of the gold medal dragon summoner as a fight between immortals, but for the owners of the dragon knight legion, that is, the kings of various countries, can they not see pigs running without eating pork? For them, now is not the time to watch the "circus" - in the next twenty years, although the order of the seven empires is determined by this ranking match of the seven kingdoms, the deterrent power of a country and the courage of a king are talked about when these ordinary people are difficult to perceive.
"King Franklin, your Phil Empire only sent this gold medal dragon summoner to participate in the competition this year, presumably you have high hopes for this person, right?" King Einstein asked with a smile: "The top powerhouses of our two countries are so inseparable, I wonder what chance does King Franklin think your gold medal dragon summoner has to win?"
There is an old Chinese saying that a plucked phoenix is not as good as a chicken. However, the opposite is another saying that is more famous: an emaciated camel is bigger than a horse.
The regular game will inevitably divide the winner and loser, but the strength of the gold medal summoner is almost the same, so the victory or defeat of the game does not directly explain the strength and weakness of the two sides of the game. Whether it is the dragon summoner of the First Empire or the dragon summoner of the Fifth Empire, on the premise that their attributes are not mutually restrictive, their probability of winning or losing is basically 50%, so if you really want to ask the gold medal dragon summoner of the Phil Empire if there is a chance of winning, of course there is, and it is definitely not low. But just because his own dragon summoner had a chance of winning, would King Franklin dare to argue with King Einstein? No, of course he wouldn't.
Names like the First Empire and the Second Empire are certainly nice to call, but they are just nominal titles, and they are just psychological comfort. The country with the strongest hard power, even if it is really enough to wear the hat of the Seventh Empire, there are definitely few people in this world who dare to laugh at them - everyone knows that in terms of the number of dragon summoners, the Irons Empire is the well-deserved First Empire on the Samene continent!
Therefore, in the face of King Einstein's "forced questioning," King Franklin could only reply with a sneer: "Where is it, our Phil Empire's national strength is low, how can it be compared with the Irons Empire? ”
King Franklin said this, but what he thought in his heart was: Kill him! Kill him! Kill him! Mader, dare to despise me? Captain Wang, you must win him, and slap this old thing's second face for me!
However, it is a pity that Lady Luck stands behind King Einstein today.
After half an hour of grappling, the four dragons were finally too tired to fly. At the same time, their summoners' soul power is on the verge of depletion, and it is no longer enough to support them in any magic or fighting skills.
However, also standing under this high wall called "Limit", Captain Wang of the Phil Empire chose to stop and watch, while the gold medal dragon summoner of the Irons Empire tensed the green tendons of his whole body, and used his strength to pull the reins in his hand, causing the frost dragon under the seat to raise his head and poke out of the top of the high wall. Therefore, the Irons Empire became the winner of this showdown and won the applause of the audience, while the only gold medalist of the Phil Empire was eliminated in the first round and completely left this sacred stage once in 20 years.
"Good, good, very good!" The first battle was won, and two of the three gold medal dragon summoners of the Erns Empire had entered the follow-up competition, which made King Einstein laugh excitedly: "That's it, keep up the good work for me!"
After the first game, there was a break of about twenty minutes before the second game resumed. The two players in this game are from the Teswan Empire and the Vortex Empire, and since both countries have two gold medalists in the competition, the victory or defeat of this game will inevitably lead to the loss of one of the generals.
Because of the similar stance, the second game was not played as aggressively as the first game from the start. The two gold medal dragon summoners test each other, attack and defend each other, and their well-organized style of play also allows the kings to talk more attentively. It's just that the two sides of this conversation are not the kings of the empires to which the warring parties belong, but King Hawking of the Teswan Empire and Nobel XX of the Zecks Empire.
"King Nobel, you really played a good hand. King Hawking watched his gold medal dragon summoner fight for his country, and at the same time leaned into the ear of Nobel XX, and whispered: "I'd rather not let Su Ze fight, than let me take advantage of Su Ze, as for it?"
At this moment, the battle situation of mutual checks and balances on the martial arts arena suddenly changed! The gold medal dragon summoner of the Teswan Empire was careless, and he was instantly overwhelmed by the double dragon roaring magic on the opposite side with the dragon!
Seeing that this scene could basically decide the winner, Nobel XX replied with a smile: "Your agreement, Su Ze did tell me, but it was his own intention not to fight, I didn't say anything." Speaking of which, I'm also quite curious, what made the always steady King Hawking boast of Haikou, which will definitely reach the final?"
