Li Huailin's task was to hand Morrisa over to Anthony Alfonso, and he was too lazy to participate in anything else. Anthony Alfonso was surprised to see Li Huailin, wondering why he was still in the main city. Didn't he hear that the second division had started training last night? However, Anthony Alfonso was really busy recently, and he could not stop at all. He only spoke a few words with Li Huailin before he was dragged away. Li Huailin did not have time to stay, so he left Morrisa behind and went to the entrance of the arena to look for Li Jianyi.
"Thank God you are here in time." Li Jianyi was very touched when he saw Li Huailin. Li Huailin was now the star of his company. He had only fought three matches so far this season, and the company had basically earned back the salary they had paid Li Huailin. Because in this month's report, the income had increased by 17% compared to the same period last year. This was a bit exaggerated. Looking at the increased share, it was basically related to Li Huailin, so Li Jianyi was really happy now. He treated Li Huailin like a master.
"What's wrong today? Is the match not held here? " Li Huailin asked curiously. The arena was very quiet today. Usually, if there was a match, it would be crowded with people, but there was no one here today. It was really a bit different.
"Yes, let's go to Brasov now," Li Jianyi said as they walked.
"Brasov? Where is that? "Li Huailin followed Li Jianyi and asked curiously.
"The capital of the neutral country, Vishki," Li Jianyi replied.
"Where is the match today?" Li Huailin asked. "Why?"
"Today is the first match of the inter-faction match. Don't you know?" Li Jianyi asked curiously. "I think I have given you the match list."
"Ahem, don't mind me. I have a bad memory." Li Jianyi had indeed sent him the match list a long time ago, but Li Huailin had long since thrown it away. "You're talking about a cross-faction match?"
"Yeah." Li Jianyi nodded. It seemed that Li Huailin did not know about it, so he explained to Li Huailin, "Today's competition is between three Human players and three Demons. That's why it's a hot topic on the internet. It's the first battle between the Light Faction and the Dark Faction. Don't go overboard today."
"Sigh … Demons are participating as well," Li Huailin said curiously.
"Of course. It's the National Professional Player League. How can there only be Human players? However, there are a lot of Human players," Li Jianyi said and explained the situation to Li Huailin.
As mentioned before, although the game was divided into two factions and six races, the number of players of each race was very uneven. According to the official statistics, the Huaxia region had 51.3% of the players of the Human race. In other words, there were more players of the Human race than all the other races combined. The second was the Nephilim race with 30.8%. One could imagine the number of players of the other four races.
Like most players, professional players generally chose races with more people. The reason was simple. Some quests couldn't be completed by a single person, but the rewards were great. If they chose a race with fewer people, they wouldn't be able to find a reliable teammate during a critical moment. In contrast, it was much easier to form a party with a large population like the Terran race.
The current professional players were the same. The distribution was extremely uneven. After the registration ended, among the 32 contestants, there were 17 Human players, 9 on the Demons' side, and a total of 6 from the other four races. Therefore, after the competition authorities decided that the Light Faction's competition would be held in the main city of the Human race, while the Dark Faction's competition would be held in the main city of the Demons. The few inter-faction battles in between would be held in the capital of the neutral country, Brasov.
It just so happened that today was the first round of the inter-faction battles. The original arrangement of the tournament wasn't like this. The inter-faction battles were arranged later because they took into account that there might be players who hadn't reached Level 30 yet and couldn't use the teleportation circle to participate in the tournament. However, in reality, everyone's leveling speed was much faster than the organizers had expected. When the season had just started, almost all of the experts had reached Level 30.
This time, due to Li Huailin accidentally triggering the upgrade mechanism, the server was shut down for an entire day. The battle that was originally scheduled to be held was delayed just like that, and the S-rank competition was affected. The audience was very dissatisfied, and the organizers immediately rearranged the order of the competition. They deliberately placed the cross-faction battle in the first match after the server was reopened. This was to attract the attention of the audience again. The six contestants that were going to compete were also chosen to be at the top of the game.
Of course, the competition authorities also held a meeting to inform all the sponsors. The sponsors naturally agreed immediately. In terms of winning the audience, the competition authorities and sponsors had the same goal, so it was approved without a doubt.
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded. He roughly understood what was going on. He guessed that the competition authorities must have sent a notice, but he did not pay attention. But he was really busy, how could he have the time to look at these things?
"Whatever, it's the same no matter who comes." Li Huailin waved his hand and said, "That means they still have a chance to win if I don't show up. Who can win if I show up?"
"You better show up properly!" Li Jianyi said.
"Ahem, the last time was an accident. Didn't we still win?" Li Huailin said with a smile.
"You almost put me on the spot last time. Fortunately, the opponent was weak … Phew, forget it. Let's go." After giving the matter some thought, Li Jianyi decided not to tell Li Huailin about this before the competition. Besides, the matter was already in the past. It would be best to pretend that nothing had happened. Waving his hand, he led Li Huailin towards the teleportation point.
Fortunately, the teleportation fee here was paid by the competition authorities. Li Huailin did not have to pay for it himself. Moreover, the teleportation fee was included. After paying the teleportation fee of 10 Gold, Li Huailin arrived at a teleportation point with an architectural style that he had never seen before.
This teleportation point looked very much like a Shrine. The surrounding buildings were very different from human buildings. They looked like the architectural style of a city in Central Asia in the real world. Although they looked a little old on the outside, after looking at them for some time, they gave off an ancient feeling. In short, this place had its own style.
"Alright, over here." Unlike Li Huailin, who wandered around aimlessly, Li Jianyi had long since visited the teleportation point. He was a very responsible person. Otherwise, he would not have personally handled everything. After receiving the notification, Li Jianyi had visited the teleportation point once. Hence, he knew the location of the competition venue.
"A neutral country?" Li Huailin asked as he walked, "Where is this country actually located? Is it bordering the human territories? "
"Of course it is." Li Jianyi did not know why Li Huailin would ask such a question. However, he knew that he could easily answer the question. "In reality, Weishi is located in the middle of the continent. It is located between the borders of several empires. It borders the territories of humans, Demons, Dwarves, and the Undead. However, as a neutral country, it does not participate in any wars. If it can remain neutral, it does so. If it cannot, it surrenders. This country is similar to Switzerland and Switzerland. It focuses on business development. Look, it's developing quite well. "
Li Huailin looked around. Indeed, it was developing quite well. Although Brasov was not a big city, it had a lot of people. The surrounding commercial streets looked very developed. The strangest thing was that Li Huailin could not only see human NPCs, but also Demons, Orcs, Dwarves, and even Undead NPCs. However, it seemed that the different races here did not hate each other very much. At least, they did not fight as soon as they saw each other.
"In other words, this place is very rich?" Li Huailin asked again.
"…" Li Jianyi did not think too much about it. He asked directly, "Why do you ask this?"
"Oh, I have been so poor recently that I have been looking for money everywhere." Li Huailin waved his hand. "Do you think it's miserable for a Duke to be in my position?"
"I really … Forget it, we're already here." Li Jianyi pointed at a very magnificent building opposite them. From the outside, it looked like an arena. However, the style was very different from the arena in the main city. The arena in the main city was simply like a modern sports stadium that could be thrown into the game. This one, on the other hand, was really in the style of an ancient Colosseum. The building materials were basically stone, and there was not the slightest hint of a modern atmosphere. Just from the entrance, it exuded a fierce aura.
"We should be in the South Lounge." The experienced Li Jianyi immediately contacted the staff. To be honest, there were not many bosses who directly brought contestants to the competition. Other contestants would basically come to the competition themselves, and the bosses would just watch. However, Li Jianyi liked to do it himself. Otherwise, he would not feel at ease.
"It's about to start. Let's go in and wait." Li Jianyi said as he opened the door to the South Lounge. Li Huailin nodded and followed behind Li Jianyi.
There were already a few people in the lounge. It seemed like Li Huailin was the last one to arrive. When the door opened, the contestants inside turned their heads to look at the door. Coincidentally, Li Huailin was also looking at the people inside, and the first person he saw shocked him.
"Apart from the Heavens?" Li Huailin was a little surprised. The first person he saw was Apart from the Heavens, who was closely related to him.
"Brother Awesome, you're here." Apart from the Heavens did not have such a big reaction like Li Huailin. He was not like Li Huailin, who did not even look at his own competition list. He already knew who his "teammate" was for the day.
