Chapter 043: Starry Sky Cup (×) Baby Cup (√)
The Star Cup, the most popular event in the world, is held entirely online and is usually held in the summer of each year.
This official event operated by the 'Spark Group' can gain hundreds of millions of attention every summer, attract the attention of countless players, and attract the sponsorship of countless businesses.
Card masters who perform well in it can not only receive rich material rewards, but also have the opportunity to be signed by major groups and become "staff members".
This is nothing more than a gimmick for card masters who yearn for freedom;
But for some cardmasters who lack resources, this is precisely the fastest way to rise.
Every year, tens of thousands of card masters sign up for the Starry Sky Cup, ranging from the first to the sixth level.
The Seventh Order Nationalist may pay attention to the 'Starry Sky Cup', but if they really want to let an old-timer like them play, they can't help but laugh and be generous.
On the other hand, ordinary players will also come to the Star Cup to join in the fun, because the 'Source World' will provide generous participation prizes and encouragement prizes.
For example, the applicant will receive white materials, and the top one will receive a white card...... With the help of these small marketing strategies, the number of registrations and attention of the Star Cup has remained high, and the popularity has intensified in recent years.
And the event of the Star Cup is not a simple ring competition.
Every year in the play-in tournament, it will introduce a new audition mechanism: last year it was [Racing], and players who do not have a vehicle card can also have a drag racing addiction through the free vehicle card embodied in the source world.
This year's audition mechanism has not yet been announced, some players speculate that it is [National Marathon], some players speculate that it is [Shooting Shootout], and even more proposed [Rock Climbing], and the results of the discussion are strange.
It can be said that the Star Cup audition is a national carnival for card masters and players.
After the audition, it will enter the knockout stage, and it will be a real 1V1 showdown.
The Starry Sky Cup is a good opportunity to attract popularity for card master anchors, so Zhen Decai mentioned this matter to Lin Xiao and suggested that he sign up for the competition.
"I heard that the rewards of this year's Star Cup are very luxurious."
Zhen Decai said: "The third place will be able to get a second-order 'Magic Explosion' of the 'Golden Legend' quality, although it is not upgradeable, but it is a 'Golden Legend'!" Xinghuo Group is really generous! ”
Each card of the 'Golden Legend' quality is extremely precious, and the effect of the second-order gold card "Magic Explosion" completely overkills the fourth-order white card "Magic Explosion".
Looking at the exaggerated emoji that Zhen Decai used to express his excitement in the light curtain, Lin Xiao groaned slightly.
Golden Legend isn't very hard to smoke, right...... The first time I made a card, I drew it.
It is not advisable to show cards, and it is easy to lose character.
Lin Xiao shook his head and continued to ask:
"What about the reward for second place?"
There was no reply from the other end of the light curtain, and after a while, Zhen De sent a poster:
"The reward for the second place is called 'Around the World in Eighty Days'!"
Lin Xiao browsed the poster of this starry sky cup and was slightly stunned.
The background of the poster is the vast starry sky and countless planets, in the center is a sparkling diamond trophy, and below is the slogan that the source world changes every year.
This year's tagline is:
[Our journey is the sea of stars! 】
"It's dirty and burning!" Lin Xiao sighed.
This was followed by various rewards, and the third prize was the second-order gold card "Magic Explosion" that the "General" had just mentioned.
Although it is not upgradeable, it can be plug-and-play as a card master to join the deck, which can add a lot of strength to the duel.
Lin Xiao was thinking about how much source dust he could exchange for if he dismantled this card.
'The decomposition of gold materials is 400 source dust, and the decomposition of gold cards is 1600 source dust...... Equal to ten consecutive at a time. ’
Lin Xiao thought to herself: "The third place in the world in the Starry Sky Cup, in the same way, can only take 1,600 source dust. ’
In fact, according to Lin Xiao's intelligence collection these days, he has become more and more aware of the preciousness of source dust.
A fifth-order master took the risk of completing an A-level commission, and the source dust obtained was only 200 to 1000 source dust, not counting the distribution among teammates.
Therefore, "source dust" is an extremely valuable substance in the card making world, and because of the relationship between card production and duel, "source dust" has also become a hard currency between card masters.
Continue browsing the rewards, and the second place prize is "Around the World in Eighty Days".
"Around the World in 80 Days: Jointly provided by 100 companies such as Oriental Carrier and White Star Chamber of Commerce, we will customize a travel plan for you to travel around the Federation, Middle-earth, Sara, Glory and other countries within 80 days, and enjoy luxury cruises, presidential suites, and star-rated food ...... throughout the whole process."
To put it simply, the second place in the Star Cup, you can enjoy the pleasure of luxury vacations and traveling the world unbridled in these eighty days.
As for how to go from luxury to frugality after 80 days...... Sorry, this is not in the Spark Group's consideration.
Winners can also directly exchange this million-dollar prize for 7-digit Star Coins.
Lin Xiao was a little moved.
It's not that I'm tempted by luxury travel, but that I am allowed to swap ...... You can take this star coin as a coil and return to Middle-earth!
"Have you seen it, Brother Wufeng?" Zhen Decai's news flashed again, "The reward for the first place is even more outrageous!" ”
"It's a limited-edition "barewheeled motorcycle"! It's said to be in honor of a world-class band, created by Harley's talent pool—"
"The limited-level motorcycle is one level higher than the S-class barewheel motorcycle, which can no longer be measured by star coins!"
"I see it." Lin Xiao was not interested.
As Zhen Decai said, the champion reward of this year's Star Cup is particularly special: limited-level vehicle card light wheel motorcycle.
If it is really an S-class barewheel motorcycle, Lin Xiao is still interested, which means that it will resell 5 million star coins to start.
But the limited bare-wheeled motorcycle...... As the champion reward of the Star Cup, this is bound to be stained with too many external factors, and it is extremely difficult to get rid of it and resell it, which is equivalent to a hot potato.
Assuming that he really participated, Lin Xiao would definitely go to the second place, and when the time came, he would take the runner-up and directly convert it into star coins, which was beautiful.
Champion? It is impossible to be a champion.
The championship reward is not tempting, and it is easy to make a big splash.
I'm fighting for two and three, just paddling.
There are so many bigwigs in the group to participate, is it possible that I am the one who plays a match-fixing game, and I can still win the first place?
The pitch-black sword that was carried by Lin Xiao on his body faintly ignited a fire with red lines.
Meteor Sword: "......"
Is it finally going to a higher stage?
Let's just let me and him show the world our strength together.
Kill!
Lin Xiao glanced back at the pitch-black greatsword behind him with a strange look in his eyes.
From just now, the source power of the Falling Star Sword began to run wildly, and the combat state was so good that it was bursting well.
Could it be that he just beheaded two masters, and he was a little excited?
Lin Xiao took advantage of the situation and glanced at the card data of the Falling Star Sword.
After breaking Roman Ulysses' record yesterday and coming out of the training room, the level of the Falling Star Sword is level 54.
Just now, the Falling Star Sword broke through the two masters, and the experience bar was greatly increased, and the level at this moment was level 56.
There is still half a month before the start of the Star Cup.
In this half month of training, coupled with learning from Lao Wen and others, Lin Xiao was sure to upgrade the Falling Star Sword to level 60.
A breakthrough requires a lot of source dust, or is it more cost-effective to break through with materials...... He has already saved two "dragon bones", and other materials, Lin Xiao is ready to find another way.
Breaking through level 60 of the Falling Star Sword will unlock the new mechanic "Armed Mysteries", so you will be more sure to challenge the Starry Sky Cup.
"I'm ready to go offline, by the way, one last question, Brother Wufeng, are you going to participate?" Zhen Decai was a little curious.
The general is self-aware and knows that he can't compete, but the strength of this super thigh is here, if he really participates, this year's Star Cup will be more interesting, and there will definitely be a large number of players to suffer!
Lin Xiao nodded: "Participate." ”
Not only can you fight for rewards, but also allow Daifuku and Ice Spear, two baby-level players, to train.
Why not!
