After any civilization entered an advanced stage and solved the basic problems of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, the desire for entertainment would become an indispensable part of the overall needs of society. The new demon realm was undoubtedly in such an advanced stage of civilization.
There were no foreign enemies and no internal troubles. The demons of the new demon realm had enough reasons to have crazy entertainment. And the lightning ball was the favorite entertainment of the people of the new demon realm. In the new demon realm, there were no less than 100 officially certified league tournaments every year. Among them, the Eternal Shield Champions League was the most influential and largest tournament. The lightning ball teams of the entire new demon realm took the Eternal Shield Champions League as the highest honor in their life.
And Zanarkand, a city located at the border of the new demon realm, was famous for its super lightning ball strength. The star team of Zanarkand had won the league championship more than 10 times in the past 100 years, ranking first in the new demon realm. For this, the city master was even rewarded by the great demon king. The level of the city was also upgraded by one level, becoming one of the top 20 level 2 cities in the new demon realm, second only to the 4 major level 1 cities.
It was not difficult to imagine the enthusiasm of the residents of Zanarkand for the lightning ball. On the third day before the game, the whole city began to boil. On the streets and alleys, the topic of the residents was almost inseparable from the lightning ball. Even the food stalls that Wang Lu frequented had launched various lightning ball themed packages … From the powerful and respected great demons to the ordinary ordinary residents, the focus of life was the lightning ball.
What was more fortunate was that the wind of destruction did not come again until the opening ceremony and the opening game of the lightning ball league, so the atmosphere of celebration continued. On the day of the game, the temperature of the entire Zanarkand seemed to rise. Before the sky brightened, the clamor had already filled the city.
"Haha, are you guys ready?!"
Before dawn, Aba hurriedly ran to the door of the courtyard of Wang Lu and others and kept knocking on the door.
After Wang Lu opened the door, he saw five demons in strange clothes: ink clan's Aba and his four Feather clan companions. These five guards who were used to wearing armor were now wearing a black and red shirt with a domineering badge on it. There were numbers and names printed on the back … It was obviously the team uniform of the star team of Zanarkand.
"… The new Demon World is truly terrifying. Has civilization already progressed to such a level?"
Shaking his head, Wang Lu looked at the exuberant face of Aba. At this time, this lively and cheerful guard captain had bloodshot eyes and looked particularly tired. However, his spirit was as excited as if he had taken a forbidden drug. Were it not for the fact that he had seen many such fanatical fans in the city in the past few days, Wang Lu would definitely treat him as if he was possessed by the devil.
But now, Wang Lu just sighed and asked, "Isn't the opening ceremony in the evening?"
Aba nodded. "But it's almost morning."
"… What is the logical relationship between your two statements?"
"There is less than a day before the opening ceremony. A qualified fan of the Zanarkand star team should enter the stadium at least half a day in advance to sing the team song and cheer for them."
"… They entered half a day in advance. No matter how much you sing, can they hear you?"
"That's not important! The important thing is … "Aba wanted to explain, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he found that he was somewhat at a loss for words. How could he explain the romance of the lightning ball to a wood-like inhabitant of the old Demon World?
"Sigh, in your old Demon World, there is probably no sport to speak of, so there is no way to understand the charm of the first sport in the new Demon World."
Wang Lu raised his eyebrows. "Of course there is. In fact, although our civilization has withered, we also have a rich variety of sports."
"Oh?" Aba suddenly became interested. "What is the most popular sport in your world?"
"The most popular?" Wang Lu thought for a moment. "Then it should be the piston sport."
"… Huh?"
"A sport created to deal with the high mortality rate in extreme environments. Both sides of the sport are composed of a man and a woman. The content is to create love and release passion through friction. A sport that is very suitable for reproduction. "
Aba didn't really understand. "Anyway … since you like sports too, that's for the best. But the piston sport you mentioned is a product of the old Demon Realm after all. If you want to truly experience the charm of the Eternal Shield Lightning Ball League, come with me. "
With that, Aba pulled Wang Lu's hand and dragged him out of the door. The four Feather friends put on a fancy hat for Wang Lu and put on the Zanarkand Star Team uniform. He dressed exactly like them, and then they shouted and laughed happily like a group of psychopaths.
However, during the league, the atmosphere of the entire city was generally like this. Wang Lu thought for a moment and felt that there was no need to be pretentious about this matter. After changing into the team uniform, he began to greet the others, "Senior Sister Mumu, you guys come and change your clothes too! Aba and the others have prepared a set for each of us! "
At the entrance of the courtyard, Zhou Mumu looked at Wang Lu who had dressed up like a Top Ten fan with disgust. Then, she asked with great difficulty, "Don't you feel ashamed?"
Wang Lu replied, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do. What's shameful about that? When we watch the game live, the surrounding people will be wearing team uniforms and cheering. Only you, a noble and cold person, will act like a green tea bitch. That's the real shame. "
Zhou Mumu had nothing to say, and could only obediently change into the team uniform … The strange thing was, when she put on the shirt, she actually felt a magical joy from the bottom of her heart, as if there was a magical power hidden in this team uniform. In Wang Lu's view, it had nothing to do with any mysterious power. It was simply easier to lose moral integrity than to pick it up.
With Wang Lu and Zhou Mumu taking the lead, the others also changed their clothes. Not long after, a rather professional-looking Zanarkand fan team was formed.
After that, Aba led the way to the Lightning Stadium in the center of the city of Zanarkand – a spherical field floating in mid-air. At this time, there was a sea of people outside the stadium. Thousands of demons gathered here, waiting in a long line to enter. Aba quickly led a few people in through a small door.
"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to you. Sir Advisor has prepared first-class tickets for you. In the past, I could only buy second-class seats at best. The queue is long, and the seats are not good. This time, it's all thanks to being your tour guide that I have the honor of sitting in the first-class seats … "
After Aba sighed with emotion, he led everyone to their seats. The first-class seats were very close to the stadium. Everything in the stadium could be seen at a glance – of course, with the eyesight of the demons, the distance was not important. What was important was that the first-class seats were very close to the most distinguished seats in the stadium.
This was the most important reason why Wang Lu was willing to participate in the opening ceremony of the Lightning Ball League. He had no interest in the Lightning Ball League, nor in the traditional culture of Zanarkand. He was not even interested in the fanatical female fans who wore simple clothes on the field! He was only interested in the Great Demon King who would be there in person!
The master of the new demon world, the legendary Great Demon King who had supreme power, enough to suppress a world. He did not know how useful the magic jade would be when he saw him.
—
After enduring the noise in the stadium for more than half a day with faint expectation, Wang Lu finally waited for the arrival of the new Great Demon King.
The Great Demon King's entrance didn't have any earth-shattering grandeur. The stadium only felt the noise suddenly lighten. Then, at the VIP seats in the center, a thick black shadow suddenly expanded and shrank. As it expanded and inhaled, the originally empty VIP seats were filled with a few more people.
Most of them were the personal bodyguards of the Great Demon King. In the middle were two noble demons dressed in black heavy armor with blood-red cloaks on their backs. As soon as they appeared, they exuded an amazing aura, which made more than 100,000 demons in the entire stadium feel oppressed.
However, the power of the Great Demon King only lasted for a moment, and it was quickly restrained. Just now, it was just a necessary procedure for the arrival of the Great Demon King to show his presence. After that, there was no need to continue to release pressure to dampen the mood.
However, it was that short moment of aura that made Wang Lu frown. "Strange, why do I feel that the aura is somewhat familiar."
Turning his head, he saw several equally solemn faces. Qiong Hua and the others nodded, expressing that they felt the same way.
At this moment, the noise in the stadium became even lower, and the center of the spherical stadium began to change light, indicating that the opening ceremony was about to begin.
The first part of the opening ceremony was when the Great Demon King made a speech and personally raised the Eternal Shield. He used the shield to attract the Heavenly Thunder, turning the entire stadium into a blazing and dazzling ball of lightning. After that, after ten months of competition, the team with the best performance would be qualified to pick up the shield raised by the Demon King and win enough glory to be treasured for a lifetime.
The Demon King of the new Demon Realm was a leader who paid attention to efficiency. After arriving, he did not want to wait any longer and directly started the opening ceremony of the league. Under the joint gaze of more than 100,000 spectators in the stadium, and ten times or even a hundred times more spectators outside the stadium, the Great Demon King stepped out and flashed from the VIP seats to the center of the stadium. The dark and heavy armor did not slow him down in the slightest.
Then, standing under the focus of everyone's eyes, the Great Demon King slowly took off his helmet mask, revealing a young and beautiful face.
The moment the helmet was taken off, Wang Lu, Qiong Hua, Xiang Liang, Zhou Mumu, and Zhan Ziye stood up at the same time, looking shocked.
Because the face behind the helmet was the elder sister of the royal sisters who had disappeared in the old Demon Realm!
Although the figure was obviously taller than the one in the old Demon Realm, and the armor was stronger and more gorgeous, the delicate but unconcealable resolute face was the same!
Turning his head, the other heavily armored Demon King who was still standing in the VIP seats also took off his helmet. Not surprisingly, it was the younger sister of the pair of sisters.
One of the four great joys in life was to meet an old friend in a foreign land. However, at this time, they were in a foreign country, and they had indeed met an old friend, but Wang Lu and the others could not be happy.
Why were the two of them here?!
