Chapter 683: Bad luck in the first game
Although everyone was eagerly waiting for the appearance of the first place reward, but even Shaoqing did not continue to take out the first place reward, and everyone did not even see the shadow, when everyone was very confused, the human emperor Lu Yuanfeng stepped forward and explained: "I know that everyone is curious about what the first place reward will be, but we can't tell you here for the time being." ”
"Can't tell everybody, why?" asked everyone.
Lian Shaoqing's face was solemn, "I can't tell you, it's because the reward for the first place involves an ancient prophecy and plan of our human race for thousands of years, and for a long time, except for the word of mouth between the emperors and emperors of the past dynasties, no one else knows that the reward of the first place is the final key to the prophecy, so the time has not come, the opportunity has not come, and the emperor and I will not reveal half a word." ”
"Thousands of years of ancient prophecies and plans? Have you heard of them? When did we Terrans have such a prophecy so long?"
"I don't know, do any of you know?"
"I don't understand, I haven't heard of it. "Hundreds of thousands of people present are constantly curious and puzzled, even the emperor and the dozen or so high-level ministers around the emperor are all puzzled, it seems that except for Lian Shaoqing and Lu Yuanfeng, there is really no one else to know, and the prime minister on the side also asked a few generals but no one knows half a point.
Lian Shaoqing said: "I know that everyone is very curious about what kind of reward it is, and I can guarantee that when the time comes, all your doubts will suddenly be cleared, because this ranking tournament will be a turning point in the spiritual capital of my human race, and all the players and teams hope that you can do your best and strive to get a good ranking!"
Under the announcement of the referee, today's one-day single knockout tournament has officially begun, because the top ten teams have eight or ninety people, one by one to eliminate each other, I am afraid I don't know how much time it will take, so it is stipulated that each team can only send three players as representatives in the single duel.
And each player has only one chance, once eliminated then in the next round of the single knockout can not play again, the final team between the score is the result of judgment, the same, in the single knockout will also determine their own captain, the score is naturally different.
Three points for one-on-one wins, and double the points for beating the captain, this is the point system, the first ten teams have to do to randomly draw their opponents, and the winning team can enter the next round of the single-player elimination round, and so on until the top six can be determined.
However, the ten teams of Agni Fire, Sword Sect, Blue Water, Qingfeng, Han Ge, Tianyang, Wuyi, Houtu, Imperial Spirit, and finally Purple Thunder actually added one more team to come in, that is, the team that has been guaranteed to be sent to the finals and exempted from participating in the preliminary round, the joint team of the two spirit departments of Chijin and Green Wood.
For a long time, these two spiritual departments have been stationed in the imperial city, and they are uniformly deployed and cultivated by the human emperor and the royal family, so their strength is self-evident, and not participating in the preliminary round is just to give another chance to other power sects, and the single knockout round is officially launched.
And since the arrangement of the points is still similar to the preliminary round, the captain has naturally become an important choice for each team, but the situation is a little different at this time, because it is no longer a scuffle at this time, so everyone's choice of the team captain is clear, and it is a guarantee to choose the strongest person to serve as a guarantee.
Zhang Fan and their side naturally chose Xiaofei, but Xiaofei's luck was really not too good, in the first round of the draw, the opponent drawn by the Purple Thunder Spirit Department turned out to be the joint team from the beginning, which made Zhang Fan and the others smile bitterly, "No, eldest sister, this is just the beginning, you have drawn such a tricky team for us, you are really lucky!"
Shen Fei also had a black line on his face, "You are a fool, what are you arguing about, do you think I think so? This, how do I know that my luck has been so bad recently, besides, what if it's them? I'm still afraid?"
"Eldest sister, you're not afraid, but a few of us are a little choked, and five of those eight people have never seen each other at all, which is a bit difficult to do. "Nanhuan Liu is observing the eight players of the Kaneki team.
Zhang Fan also saw that among the eight players, except for three of them who were dressed more normally, or Xiaofei and Zigu, who they had seen and understood, the remaining five people were all wrapped in coats and covered their faces with black hats, which looked very mysterious, and no matter who they were, they couldn't detect their true strength, which made the players of other teams curious and cautious.
Li Lao also observed from the sidelines and said, "It's strange, why did the combined team of Chijin and Green Wood send newcomers that I haven't seen before?"
Niu Man also echoed: "Who said it wasn't, you said that they would send newcomers, which made it a bit too much to dress up like the people in black, for fear that others would recognize the five newcomers, which is really funny." ”
Zigu observed and analyzed: "Except for Cai Guokun, Xu Liang and Li Feng, the remaining five people in black can't detect any breath, and there is no information about them on the list of players' information, it seems that it should be the backhand specially prepared by the two spirit departments for this ranking competition, but I don't know their approximate strength, which is a bit ........."
"Well, this team has always been strong, Cai Guokun and the three of them already have good strength, since they are arranged to be the backhand and secret weapon, then the natural strength of those five people is not low, you all have to be careful, although we drew them at the beginning, the luck is really worse, but our Purple Thunder Spirit Department is not here to play, let's try our best to fight!" Jian Tianfeng's encouragement made Zhang Fan and the others also feel a lot more at ease.
Each team returned to their rest area and began to discuss and study their own and their opponents' strength and coping plans, but in the entire arena, the huge arena that was originally located in the center suddenly roared continuously, and a large stage actually began to vibrate, being divided into two halves horizontally.
Xiaofei said: "Okay, concentrate on it, this is just the movement of the outside in order to prepare for the two stages, this time in order to reduce the time-consuming drawbacks of previous years, so the royal family decided to face off against each other at the same time with four teams at a time, and the form of our own internal confrontation in the spiritual department, continue the discussion just now, and decide the three people who will play this game first!"
Qi Qingsheng thought about it, looked at the five mysterious people on the opposite side who still made him feel uneasy, and said to Xiaofei: "Big sister, although we don't know the strength of those five people, but after all, there can only be three people every time they appear, and each person can only play once, since it is only the first round of each team, then I think the other party should not expose their strength, I think the other party should be Cai Guokun and the three of them." ”
Qi Qingsheng's opinion is very reasonable, after all, no one will expose their strength and hole cards at the beginning, so what else to play in the future, right? Xiaofei agreed with Qi Qingsheng's opinion, "Well, then in this first game, we will let Zigu, Han Niu, and Guocheng go up to the three of you, and the other side should let Cai Guokun and the three of them go up, everyone is a soldier, although they are all one to two stars higher than you, but if you try your best, you are not without a chance, give me some courage, especially you, Han Niu!"
