Chapter Twenty-Three: The Shuda Competition
The three days passed in a flash, and the members of the Radiance team had reached the initial tacit understanding, and time did not allow them to continue to run in, and they embarked on the journey of the competition.
The tournament was played in the largest square in Shuda, which is the size of 10 football fields, and 51 competition venues have already been set up, except for the middle one, which is used for the final semi-finals and finals, all the other competition venues will be played at the same time, and after the draw we were placed in Group 198, while Beechcraft's Wind Dragons team was placed in Group 803, and we have not seen their players yet.
The five of us went to our own venue, which was surrounded by players from various teams, and the spectators were isolated in the outermost ring of all the rings, where there were many newly erected sheds, which were also spectator seats.
I looked around, most of them were samurai outfits, only a few were other classes, I was wearing the same white samurai outfit as everyone else, and our plan was to try not to use magic to win in the preliminary round.
The organizing committee of the competition announced the rules of the competition, and the competition officially began. According to the lottery, we will be the third to compete. In the first game, both sides were samurai, and in the form of heads-up, it seemed that the strength was very average, and there was not even a player with the strength of the earth knight, it was nothing more than cutting each other, and finally one of the teams won with a total score of 3 to 2.
The second game was similar, and several of us were about to fall asleep, and it was not easy for us to play, and the referee of the 198th group announced: "The third game will be played by the Radiant Team against the Iron God Warrior Team." ”
Xingao smiled and said, "This Iron God Warrior team won't be a pile of broken copper. "We laughed. Shuji said to me, "Let's have a meeting and go straight to the team vs. the team, so as to save some time." ”
I nodded.
When we came to the stage, the white outfit and our height of more than 180 made the other players in the audience look a little flustered. From the other side of the ring came the sound of heavy footsteps, clanging. Damn, that's an exaggeration.
The Iron God Warrior team appeared, it was really exaggerated, the 5 hoplites were all dressed in heavy black armor, the average height was definitely more than 2 meters, and the weapons were all two-handed swords, which seemed to be not light.
Shuji whispered in my ear: "They are very scheming, there is little space in the ring, and when they encounter a slightly almost opponent, they rush over together, and they can win by colliding." ”
I replied, "Unfortunately, they met us." We looked at each other and smiled, filled with confidence.
I was the captain of the team, so I naturally had to come forward to negotiate, and they agreed to fight as a team when they arrived, which was beneficial to them.
As soon as the whistle of the referee started the game, the 5 people of the Iron God Warrior team rushed over with a big sword, looking at the momentum is really unusual, but the speed is slow, I, Dongri, and Xiuji didn't move at all, standing on the edge of the ring, Gao De and Xingao also stood in front with a big sword, Xiuji once said to me, if the strength alone can win them, there are very few people.
The other 5 people rushed to the front, Xingao let out a roar, the big sword emitted a pale yellow fighting spirit, and met the enemy who rushed to the front, the two swords intersected, and the other party who looked powerful was split by Xingao and flew up with the sword, and the opponent's sword was also cut out of a big gap.
The rest is Xingao's personal show, Ding took a few long strokes and the opposing team members staggered, Gao De complained: "You don't leave me one, you beat it yourself." "The other players in the audience looked stupid, and many people were very upset about how they were in the same group as us.
I walked to the front, stopped Xingao, who was about to continue the attack, and said to the other party: "I advise you to admit defeat, you should know the difference in strength." ”
The big man led by the other party supported his body with a sword, and said in a deep voice: "This brother, did your teammates use the Earth Dou Qi just now?"
I nodded, "yes." The results below make us laugh.
The five big men ran to Xingao together, knelt down on one knee, and the big man led by him said: "Big brother, you accept us as apprentices, we came to the competition this time to find a master who can fight hard." ”
Xingao's face turned red, he has been practicing martial arts almost all his life, how could he have encountered this kind of scene, or Xiu Si helped him out of the siege, and said to the five big men to let them come to us again after the whole game, and told them our contact information.
Finally sent the Iron God Warrior team, ended our first game, on the way back to the academy, Gao De stabbed Xingao, and said to him: "Yes, brother, we accepted five apprentices on the first day of the competition, and we can organize a legion in every game in the future, haha." ”
Xingao ignored him and asked Xiuji, "Boss, do you think I can take them?"
Xiuji smiled and said, "In my opinion, they are all very simple-hearted and straightforward men, and there is no harm in accepting them, as for whether to accept them or not, it depends on your own wishes." ”
Then, we played a group stage every day, and it went well, and it was all played by Xingao, Gaode and Winter, while Shuji and I watched from the sidelines, and we came out of Group 198 with a record of 10 wins in 10 matches and entered the semi-finals.
In the interval of the game, we went to see the competition of the Wind Dragon team sent by Beechcraft, and their team only came to a person with the strength of the Earth Knight to participate in the game, all of them were one-on-five, and they entered the semi-finals very easily, and they never saw the appearance of other team members, and Mr. Guwen said that the one sent to participate in the game was probably the weakest one of the opponents. It seems that the situation is not optimistic.
At the end of the preliminary round, there will be a two-day break for the draw grouping, the first round of the knockout round will be held for four days, and we will participate in the competition on the third day, which means that we can rest for a total of four days, so this arrangement is still more satisfactory to us. We don't study each other's strength anymore, but continue to strengthen mutual cooperation. The fastest progress is going to be said to be winter, his fighting spirit has not improved much, but with the relationship between the elves and the natural elements, under the guidance of my magic power, he can already master some elementary and intermediate magic of the light system, and fuse the primary light magic light arrow into his archery, and the power has increased greatly.
