Chapter 128: Signing
Ryan took a closer look at the players around him, trying to see if there were any masters.
For a while, Ryan couldn't see anything famous.
The piles of more than a dozen players standing in the middle of the field are very conspicuous, and they are estimated to be players from those powerful academies. Almost every contestant is high-spirited and looks superior. It's really annoying.
The four companions beside Ryan were all looking at them angrily, but Ryan didn't feel annoyed, because Ryan could tell from their aggressive eyes that they did have their own proud capital, and they were very strong, and they were extremely difficult to mess with.
Players from other houses, Ryan can't see the depth from the outside.
The players are all very young, the oldest looks to be around 30 years old, and the youngest looks like they have just come of age. Ryan couldn't tell the level of strength of these people, other than the swordsman rank badge on the player's clothes.
Ryan observed the past one by one and found that almost most of the players wore swordsman badges on their clothes were level 5 swordsman badges, and of course, a very small number of players wore level 4 swordsman badges. Even, Ryan found out that there were two players wearing level 3 swordsman badges.
"I didn't expect that I wasn't the only one with the lowest rank here, and there were even two players who were also level 3 swordsmen." Rui Anxin couldn't help but sigh. However, Ryan will not look down on these people, he knows that these people may hide their strength, or they can represent their academy to participate in the sword skills competition, there must be something outstanding, if you underestimate them, maybe you will be planted in their hands. Because Ryan himself is that type of fighter.
Of course, it is not excluded that those small academies do not have high-level players, and can only send level 3 swordsmen to fill the scene. Or, it is not ruled out that those small academies deliberately send a level 3 swordsman to disgust others, but this possibility is really unlikely, if there is such an idea, it is better to send a level 1 swordsman to disgust others.
After waiting for a quarter of an hour, it seemed that all the players had arrived.
At this time, a person who looked like an event host stood up and shouted, "Hello everyone, please be quiet." I am the host of this year's Sword Skills Competition. Now I'm going to tell you about some of the rules of this year's Sword Fighting Competition......"
The host then chattered a lot, and at first, Ryan listened very carefully, as if he wanted to see what rules he could take advantage of. But after listening to a lot of innocuous official remarks and scenes, Ryan had to give up this idea.
In fact, the rules of the game are very simple, draw lots to fight against each other, and no skills that are not related to swordsmen, such as magic, are not allowed. In addition, you are not allowed to use your own sword, you can only use the competition sword provided by the tournament, and you must not injure your life, etc.
Ryan didn't react after listening to it, because he had participated in many competitions, and the rules of these competitions were almost all the same, and it is estimated that the rules of the competition in this world are the same.
About a quarter of an hour later, just when Ryan, who had always been patient, couldn't take it anymore, the moderator finally finished speaking. The draw is finally going on.
There is nothing special about the lottery, except that the name and swordsman level and other information must be reported at the time of the lottery.
Everyone will be drawn according to the order of the college rankings.
The first academy to draw lots was the Pools Public Swordsman Academy, and for the swordsmen, the Swordsman Academy, established in the name of the Grand Duke of Pooles, was indisputably worthy of being the first swordsman academy. Even the host city, Skayas City Comprehensive College, is not as good as it.
Soon, the draw of ten players for the Pools Public Swordsman Academy was completed, and on a large bulletin board next to the podium, several staff members immediately wrote the names of the players, the academy, and the swordsman level on the corresponding matchup groups.
The second college to enter the draw was Skayas City Comprehensive College. In fact, in Scaya City, the Scaya City Comprehensive Academy can only be ranked third, and the Pools Public Swordsman Academy can only be ranked second, and the first place is the Alexandria Academy of Magic. However, because the Alexandria Academy of Magic was a purely magical academy, they did not send anyone to participate in the sword skills competition, so the Skayas City Comprehensive Academy was the second among the colleges present.
After some draws, a number of colleges soon came forward to draw lots.
Time flies, and after half a day, it was the turn of the Pal Comprehensive College to draw lots, and the Pal Comprehensive College ranked more than ten places, which shows that its strength is really not very good. It's less than the above, more than the bottom!
Ryan followed behind the four companions and stepped forward to draw a small note in the lottery box. I saw that it said "Ninety-six Group", and Ryan estimated that he was in the ninety-sixth group for the competition, he didn't care, and handed the small note to the staff who registered on the side, and then told the staff his information.
Unexpectedly, after listening to this, the staff was surprised, and then asked, "What?" What do you say your swordsman rank is? ”
Ryan had to reply again, "Level 3 swordsman." After answering, Rui Anxin suddenly felt bad.
Sure enough, the staff opened their mouths wide and counted their breaths before coming over normally, and then registering Ryan.
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, he was also worried that the other party would not let him compete because of his low swordsman level, which seemed to be quite normal. But when Ryan hadn't returned to his original position, there was a sparse exclamation from the audience outside the arena.
"No, it won't. The Pal Academy actually sent a level 3 swordsman to participate. ”
"The strength of the Parr Comprehensive Academy is not very weak, how can they send a level 3 swordsman to participate, do they want to give up the competition?"
"It seems that Pal Comprehensive Academy wants to give up this competition."
……
All kinds of chattering sounded without hesitation. Ryan's face suddenly looked bad, he looked back, and sure enough, on the oversized bulletin board, the column of "Ninety-sixth Group", the staff just wrote his name: "Ryan, Parr Comprehensive Academy, Level 3 Swordsman." ”
Ryan's four rank 5 swordsman companions also turned extremely ugly when they heard those rumors, and one of them seemed to want to have a seizure, but the other companions desperately pulled him to avoid further disputes.
In fact, in the Parr Comprehensive Academy, all the students no longer regard Ryan as an ordinary level 3 swordsman, but as a figure comparable to a level 5 swordsman. However, Ryan's fame only stays within Parr Comprehensive College, and people in other colleges don't know about it, so they look down on Ryan.
Ryan grimaced, but after a moment he let go again, because he wanted everyone to underestimate him so that he could have a chance to win a few more games.
After the draw of lots for the Parr Academy, it was the Moblen Swordsman Academy. This is the academy that Ryan has challenged before, and its strength is similar to that of Parr Comprehensive College, but because there is a lot of competition between the two colleges, the two colleges are full of contradictions.
After that, one after another, colleges came forward to draw lots.
Ryan kept staring at another blank space on the bulletin board for "Group 96," but no one was able to fill in the name. It wasn't until the draw was almost over that Ryan found that the staff had written a line: "Abbott, Charitas Private Academy, Level 4 Swordsman".
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief, this college called "Charitas Private College", Ryan had never heard of it at all, but it was ranked so late before it came forward to draw lots, and it was estimated that it was a third-rate college. Moreover, the player called Abbott that Ryan will be fighting is only a level 4 swordsman, which is a good choice for Ryan, who has always been worried about running into a strong opponent.
Unexpectedly, a young swordsman with an extremely exaggerated hairstyle who was walking down from the rostrum, after seeing the bulletin board, laughed out loud regardless of the occasion, and then shouted loudly: "Haha, I didn't expect my luck to be so good, and only a few level 3 swordsmen actually ran into me." Haha......"
His expression was extremely exaggerated and arrogant, as if he had won the match, which caused some of the players around him to look at him with disgust.
Ryan couldn't help but sigh that in the face of his opponent's contempt, he could only be happy, which was exactly what he wanted. For Ryan, not encountering a level 5 swordsman in the first round is simply a top draw. Ryan has a lot of confidence to defeat such a level 4 swordsman who seems to be a little arrogant.
Ryan's four companions also looked at this arrogant guy with foolish eyes, and they couldn't help but feel sad in their hearts for this guy who didn't know it when he encountered a level 3 swordsman who could be defeated even by a level 5 swordsman.
After knowing his opponent in the first round, Ryan relaxed. Next, he looked around, at the spectators, at the players around him.
There were not many people outside the arena, and they were so scattered that Ryan couldn't tell if Yaselyn was there to watch, so he had to give up.
Soon, the draw of more than 40 colleges was finally completed, and the host spent another quarter of an hour talking about a lot of scenes, and finally ended today's opening in the eyes of all the contestants who wanted to kill.
Ryan and his companions, led by the team leader, went back to Pal Comprehensive College.
On the way, only Ryan's mood was relaxed, because the other companions were not very good, except for one companion who drew a level 5 swordsman from a small academy, the other three were all level 5 swordsmen from some ranked colleges, and one of them was a level 5 swordsman from the Pools Public Swordsman Academy, and I saw that his face became very dark and dark.
After returning to the academy, the group broke up directly, and Ryan went straight back to the dormitory to recuperate, although his injuries were scarred, but they were still not completely healed. Ryan reckoned that in a few days, he would be completely fine. That's why Ryan was happy to meet a player who was a little less strong in the first round.
