On the morning of the first day of the S-Rank League Round Robin, the time was still a little past 8 am. However, there were already people entering the arena. In fact, the first match was scheduled to start at 9 am. There were still more than 50 minutes before the start of the match.
"My great aunt, you're finally here," Li Jianyi immediately said when he saw Li Huailin.
As soon as Li Huailin logged on this morning, he received a call telling him to come over immediately, so he slowly strolled over. By the time he arrived, Li Jianyi and Feng Yiliu were already there. Apart from the two of them, there was also a male player around 40 years old. He was very tall, at least 190 cm, and had a square face. He was a Warrior player with a two-handed greatsword on his back. Li Huailin guessed that this was the Fire Beacon player they were talking about. Apart from them, there were also two of Li Jianyi's subordinates, who looked like employees of the company. They were helping out at the side.
"What's going on? Didn't they say it would start at 9 am? " Li Huailin was the last to arrive. This made him feel a little embarrassed. However, he heard that the match would start at 9 am yesterday. Although Li Huailin woke up at 7 am, he went out for a run and leisurely ate his breakfast before returning. As a result, he was the last to arrive when he logged in.
"Today is the opening match, so the gathering time will be a little earlier. In the future, you can arrive about half an hour earlier." Li Jian Yi also knew that it was Li Huailin's first time playing in a professional competition and did not know the rules, so he did not say much. He pulled over Fire Beacon Consecutive Battle and began to introduce them. "Let's get to know each other. This is Xu Peng, his in-game name is Fire Beacon Consecutive Battle. This is Li Huailin, our company has just signed a contract, his in-game name is Forest Heart."
"Brother Awesome? Of course I know you." Fire Beacon smiled and said, "Nice to meet you. Although we will be facing each other in the S-Rank League, we will be fighting side by side from today onwards."
"Oh, hello." Li Huailin shook hands with Fire Beacon's Lian Zhan. Although he had heard of this guy's name, he didn't expect him to be so old. If he wasn't an idol-type player, then he was definitely a strong one.
"Do you know your opponent for the opening match?" Seeing the two of them greet each other, Li Jianyi immediately got down to business.
"I don't know. I couldn't find any matchups on the forums last night." Li Huailin had nothing to do last night, so he browsed the forums. In the end, his own posts were all over the place, and all of them were pinned at the top. It was simply overwhelming. Of course, they were all posts and videos of his practice matches in the S-rank competition. Li Huailin also looked for the match list, but he couldn't find it.
"This season's match list was released very late. It was only announced on the official website at 2 PM last night." Li Jianyi immediately said, "I don't know what's going on. I think it's because Sky Heng's Like Wind didn't participate. It's giving the organizing committee a headache. After all, he's one of the top three players. But it seems like Wind is really angry this time. He really didn't participate this season. Little Chen, the match list."
After Li Jianyi finished speaking, the staff behind him immediately handed a piece of paper to Li Huailin.
Li Huailin looked at the round-robin match list. The schedule was densely packed. Although there were matches every day, for the players, it was basically one round every three days, and they had to fight three matches in a row. He paid attention to his name. The three players he was going up against today were Priest Zi Wei, Bao Long, and Sky Bearing Jia Hai. Li Huailin wasn't very familiar with any of the three names.
"Because today is the opening match, there will be more matches. The three of you will fight against the three people on the other side. Your opponents will be the three of them," Li Jianyi said.
"Priest Zi Wei …" Feng Yiliu suddenly said with a frown.
"I didn't expect a monster from the top five to appear in the opening match …" Fire Beacon's Lian Zhan said unhappily. "How did they arrange the schedule? Aren't they trying to screw our company over? If we lose three matches in the opening match, it will affect our future matches. "
"Is this Priest Zi Wei a very strong guy?" Li Huailin asked after hearing what they were saying.
"He was ranked fourth in the S-rank last season, and his best result in history is ranked first," Li Jianyi said. Li Jianyi said, "I only found out about this after looking at the schedule, but I can't do anything about it. They are from Zhongxing, and their words carry more weight than mine. Basically, the competition team will consider the wishes of these top players. If they want to participate in the opening battle, the competition team will definitely agree."
"In other words, this guy is targeting me?" Li Huailin looked at the schedule. His first opponent was Taoist Priest Zi Wei. If Li Jianyi said that the competition group would consider the opinions of the top contestants, then it was Taoist Priest Zi Wei who said that he wanted to fight Li Huailin first.
"It seems like that's the case." Li Jianyi said, "After all, your video last night was like a flood. I can only see your post on the forum. It's really popular! Our company's phone is exploding with calls. I haven't slept yet. "
Although Li Jianyi's words sounded like he was blaming Li Huailin, there was joy in his words. This was the effect he wanted when he signed on Li Huailin. Although he didn't know Li Huailin's results, the effect was strong enough. As long as his results weren't too bad, this contract was already a profit.
"There's really a guy who isn't afraid of death. Alright, I'll happily send him on his way." Li Huailin didn't care about his opponent's ranking. It was impossible for him to lose. "By the way, what about Treasure Dragon and Sky Supporting Sea? Are they strong? "
"These two aren't that strong. One was ranked 17th last season, and the other was ranked 26th. They should be players arranged by the organizing committee." Li Jianyi said.
"Well … I have confidence in these two." Fire Beacon Lianzhan also said, "But I really don't have confidence in beating Priest Zi Wei. My second match is against him …"
"I know. I know Priest Zi Wei's strength. Old Xu, you don't have to worry too much. We must win Treasure Dragon and Sky Supporting Sea. As for Zi Wei … just do your best." Li Jianyi also knew that Fire Beacon Lianzhan wasn't Priest Zi Wei's opponent, so he said.
"Director Li, don't worry. I'm familiar with Treasure Dragon and Sky Supporting Sea, especially Treasure Dragon. I just fought him last week, and I won easily," Fire Beacon Lianzhan immediately said.
"That's good." Li Jianyi nodded. "What about you, Little Yu? Do you have confidence in fighting Priest Zi Wei? "
"Yes, my skills are quite good. However, my opponent is Priest Zi Wei. I can't say for sure that I can win," Feng Yiliu said cautiously.
"Hmm …" Li Jianyi also nodded. Although Feng Yiliu's current condition was quite good, his opponent was Priest Zi Wei. Accidents could happen.
"It would be terrible if we were slaughtered by an expert in the opening match …" After saying that, Li Jianyi looked at Li Huailin. "Huailin, what do you think?"
"Me?" Li Huailin smiled. "I already said that I'll win the championship with a clean sweep."
"Uh …" Li Jianyi had heard about this before, but because it was the first time Li Huailin participated in an S-rank competition, he didn't know his opponent's situation. Saying that he would win the championship with a clean sweep was not very convincing. Of course, Li Huailin's words appeared on the forums yesterday. Although there were people who supported him, most of them said that Brother Awesome was ignorant, even if there was a video of him killing He Yan.
Most people said that Brother Awesome only killed an S-rank player who was at the bottom of the ranking. There was no need to be too arrogant. Their idol could also do that. Therefore, although Li Huailin's declaration of a clean sweep had been said, not many people really believed it.
Of course, that was except for Li Huailin's fan club. Li Huailin took the time to browse his fan website yesterday and found that his fan number had doubled. It was now close to 600,000. The leader, Watching Mountains and Listening Water, had held an overnight chat party on the fan website yesterday. Then, he went to various forums to find people who doubted Li Huailin to scold him.
Back on this side, although Li Jianyi had doubts about whether Li Huailin could win a clean sweep, he knew Li Huailin's strength. He was at least a little stronger than Feng Yiliu, so it was possible for Li Huailin to defeat Taoist Priest Zi Wei. He just didn't know if Li Huailin could adapt to the S-rank league. But since it was possible, Li Jianyi decided to give him a little pressure.
"Huailin, you are now the real top player of the whole company, and this is the first match of the opening battle. You must make a good start for our company," Li Jianyi said.
"F * ck … Top card …" This title doesn't feel right. Why does it feel like it's from some ancient academy or something? "Don't worry, don't worry. I've already said that I really don't know how to lose. If you can make me lose, I also want to see how it's done."
"Well, if it's Huailin, there should be no problem." Feng Yiliu also said, "Although Taoist Priest Zi Wei is good, it is obvious that Huailin is more powerful. I have fought with both of them, and the pressure is not on the same level. Ziwei is like a senior brother who is slightly stronger than you, but when you fight with Huailin, it feels like you are fighting with your own master. The pressure is too great."
"Really?" Hearing these words, Li Jianyi's confidence was also boosted.
"Okay, okay, isn't it just a guy who is ranked fourth? Do you need to be so careful?" Li Huailin said, "Since you are so worried, I will defeat the opponent in the first match, so that you can fight the second and third matches easily."
"Oh, this is a good suggestion. Brother Awesome, I am counting on you." Fire Beacon Lian Zhan's eyes lit up and immediately said.
"Well, watch carefully." Li Huailin nodded and said.
