The Star Armor King League was held on the virtual starnet. But to better reflect the competitive atmosphere, it was divided into home and away games.
Every university had its own virtual starnet home stadium, which was usually designed as a large stadium. During the home games, only 10% to 20% of the tickets were sold.
The tickets were also very cheap, ranging from ten dollars to a few hundred dollars, depending on the grade. These tickets were actually sold to the universities that were playing away games. Of course, there was a market for some exceptional teams to play at home and away games. The passers-by were very enthusiastic.
The Alliance University King League had been held for a long time, and the various systems were very mature. From the ticket price to the broadcasting rights, there was a complete set of pricing mechanisms.
If you wanted to watch the games live, you had to buy a ticket. Or you could watch it through a live broadcast platform. But no matter what method you used to watch it, you had to pay.
Only the national platforms of the Alliance would broadcast the King League games for free. But there weren't enough broadcasts, and there were a lot of advertisements.
The King League's organizing committee could earn hundreds of billions of star dollars from the tickets, broadcasting fees, advertisements, and so on, but the actual investment was very little. It could be said that it was a very profitable business.
The organizing committee was rich, so they would give some discounts to the universities that weren't good enough to ensure that the league ran well.
But for teams like Pegasus University and Zheng Jia University, there were almost no outside audiences, so the ticket prices were very low. The broadcasting fees were also packaged and sold by the organizing committee.
But the students of the university were still very supportive of the school teams. Usually, there would be a lot of students at home games. The lowest ticket price for a school's home game was only a few dollars. Sometimes, there would be free tickets.
There were a total of 60 university teams in the Northeast region, and the entire region was divided into two regions. For example, Pegasus University belonged to the lowest tier. The school team was the most direct manifestation of a school's strength. If the university wasn't strong, then the school team wouldn't be strong.
Zheng Jia University and Pegasus University were about the same level, both in the lower half of the Northeast region, always struggling in the last ten places. In a normal season, there wasn't much difference in the level of the teams. The last fifteen teams had about the same number of points.
But the top eight teams in each region were all traditionally strong teams. These strong teams' rankings would change, but they basically controlled the top eight positions. The other school teams could only enter the top eight if they performed exceptionally well or if they had an exceptionally strong genius Star Master.
However, there were only eight playoff spots in the entire Northeast region. The top four teams in the upper and lower divisions would have to fight each other to determine the top four teams in the playoffs.
Zheng Jia University had been at the bottom of the league for the past two years. Their goal this year was very simple: to enter the top 20. It seemed a bit difficult now, but Pegasus University was weak this year. They had to get three points from Pegasus University.
The league tournament used a point system. Three points for a win and zero for a loss. If the score is the same, the home and away wins will be calculated.
Half a regular season had passed, and Zheng Jia University's team had accumulated 36 points, ranking sixth from the bottom. Pegasus University only scored nine points in the regular season, last place.
Zheng Jia University wasn't confident in beating other schools, but they were confident in beating Pegasus University. Because they were going to bully a weak team, the 80,000 spectator seats were filled.
In a corner, students from Pegasus University sat together in fiery red T-shirts. There was a large group of them. At the New Year's Eve party, Bai Zhihu announced in public that he wanted to get into the top eight of the league tournament.
Naturally, not many people dared to believe such a lofty goal. However, Gao Zhengyang's stunning performance did indeed give many people confidence. Therefore, this time, more than 10,000 people from Pegasus University came to watch the away game.
Many people even held up their self-made screens with the words "Pegasus University will win! Bei Chen will win!"
The bright light screen was quite eye-catching. On the huge screen of the broadcast, the home audience would boo loudly when it scanned the self-made screens of the away audience.
Zheng Jia University's coach, Yu Yi, didn't care about the away audience. He was just very confused about Pegasus University's lineup.
Of the five players who were playing, he only knew Guan Wentao, who was at the end. He was also the most important main attacker of Pegasus University, and his Ghost Tiger Star Armor wasn't bad.
He had never heard of Bei Chen, Tong Ying, or Cheng Qingyun. Forget about these three, what was with the eleven-year-old Wu Shuang?
When Yu Yi saw Wu Shuang's age, his head buzzed and he almost exploded on the spot.
Eleven years old. She's a primary school student! Why did they let her participate? What's going on! Of course, the league tournament only had an upper age limit. People over 35 years old weren't allowed to participate.
However, the league tournament required official student status. It wasn't something that could be done just by finding someone.
Yu Yi said to his assistant, "Go and check on these people, especially this little girl. Is Pegasus University here to make a joke?"
The female assistant saw that Yu Yi didn't look good, so she didn't dare to ask. Actually, as an assistant, gathering information about the opponents was her basic job. But it was just after the New Year, and Pegasus University was smashing the pot again, so she didn't pay attention to them at all.
The members of Zheng Jia University surrounded Yu Yi with smiles on their faces. They all looked relaxed. They had just enjoyed the New Year's holiday, so they were all in a relaxed state.
They couldn't lift their spirits against a lousy team like Pegasus University.
"Coach, I think they've completely given up …"
"An eleven-year-old girl. Are you trying to kill us by acting cute? Hahahaha … "
All the team members burst into laughter. This joke was indeed funny.
Yu Yi didn't laugh. He said with a sullen face, "What's so funny? This time, Bai Zhihu is personally leading the team. He wouldn't purposely come here to put on a lousy show."
Bai Zhihu had a bad temper, but he was indeed a very outstanding coach. Many of the team members had also seen Bai Zhihu's temper before. They knew that this old man was very powerful. He would scold anyone he disagreed with, and he wouldn't give face to anyone.
According to Bai Zhihu's character, he wouldn't purposely bring a lousy team to lose.
The female assistant came back very quickly. She looked nervous and ran to Yu Yi. "I just went to the organizing committee to check. The little girl is specially recruited by Pegasus University. There's no doubt about her participation. Her registration information is that of a one-star Silver Star Teacher! "
"F * ck!"
"What?"
"Impossible …"
A group of team members were listening at the side. When they heard that Wu Shuang was a Silver Star Teacher, they all exploded. There were twelve people in their team, and the highest level of Star Teacher was a seven-star Bronze Star. She was still very far from being a Silver Star.
Yu Yi also frowned and stared at the female assistant. He didn't believe such a thing and hoped that the female assistant could give him a reasonable explanation.
The female assistant was sweating. She hurriedly said, "This is the registration information given by the organizing committee. I definitely didn't read it wrong. Moreover, Cheng Qingyun, Tong Ying, and Bei Chen are all Silver Star Teachers … "
The team members at the side were all stunned. Pegasus University actually found a team with four Silver Star Teachers. This was a huge advantage.
The traditional top eight teams in the Northeast Star Region all had Silver Star Teachers in their teams. But four Silver Star Teachers were definitely top-notch for the school team!
Yu Yi was also stunned. He said in disbelief, "Where did they come from?"
"Cheng Qingyun is a fourth-year student. Tong Ying and Bei Chen are freshmen. Wu Shuang is specially recruited. "
The female assistant didn't mention Guan Wentao. This person wasn't important at all.
"This …"
Yu Yi looked at the detailed information sent by the female assistant and was speechless. Except for Wu Shuang, there were no problems with the information of the others.
The key was that Pegasus University had so many talents. Why didn't they go last year? What the hell!
Zheng Jia University was a university in the Yunshan Star Region. It was quite far away from the Pegasus Star Region. Yu Yi wouldn't pay attention to the power structure in the Pegasus Star Region. He wouldn't know about the messy changes in Pegasus University.
Yu Yi wasn't very good at adapting to situations. Adapting to sudden problems and adjusting tactics was an ability that only the top coaches in the league had.
Yu Yi felt like he was being f * cked. He could only grit his teeth and act like nothing had happened. "What are you panicking for? Even if the other party is a Silver Star Teacher, they are all newbies. They don't have any team battle experience. Follow the tactics that we prepared beforehand. Use the second set of tactics and charge at them. "
The group of team members hung their heads. They really couldn't lift their spirits. It would be fine if they had prepared beforehand. But when they arrived at the scene, they realized that the other party had changed to a super luxurious lineup. Everyone was a little mentally broken.
Yu Yi was also very helpless. He could only shout and call out their names one by one. He gathered everyone together and pointed at the school team's blue team flag. "Even if it's for this team flag, we have to put in 120% of our effort. We can lose, but we can't lose while kneeling! Remember, there are hundreds of thousands of students watching you! "
They were a group of young people after all. After being encouraged by Yu Yi, they immediately became excited. The captain shouted, "That's right. Who's afraid of who? Damn it, let's f * ck them up!"
"Let's f * ck them up!"
"Let's f * ck them up!"
The group of people put their hands together. Each of their voices was louder than the other. Of course, these kinds of vulgarities couldn't be directed at a specific person. But when they gathered together and shouted a few words, it seemed very imposing.
At this time, the host at the scene began to introduce the visiting team's name list.
"Cheng Qingyun, 25 years old, 1-star Silver Star. Wow, a Silver Star Teacher at this age. Pegasus University has another genius. Let us see. This female player is really beautiful! "
The league matches all had specially made competition uniforms. They were generally similar to battle uniforms and were more close-fitting. It was just that the style was more beautiful. Pegasus University wore a red competition uniform with a golden-red Pegasus emblem on the chest.
Cheng Qingyun had a slender waist and long legs. Her body proportions were very good and her facial features were beautiful. After her appearance was shown on the big screen, it immediately caused a burst of cheers.
Although the home team's audience was definitely on the home team's side, how could they not suck up to her beauty?
Tong Ying's appearance also caused a burst of cheers. Innocent and cute beauties were always likable. After Wu Shuang's appearance, the cheers became even louder.
Just by looking at the atmosphere at the scene, those who didn't know would think that it was Pegasus University's home ground.
When Guan Wentao appeared on the screen, there was almost no sound in the huge venue. Only a few people in the square formation of red T-shirts applauded in support. Compared to the previous warm atmosphere, the scene was a little awkward.
Guan Wentao, who was standing next to the Landing Pod, didn't show it on his face, but he felt very uncomfortable in his heart. It's fine if the home team's audience didn't say anything, but the students who came to watch also didn't say anything. What's the meaning of this!
However, no one cared about Guan Wentao's feelings. In everyone's eyes, he was just a minor character. Who would pay attention to a cameo?
Gao Zhengyang was the last to appear. Gao Zhengyang, who was wearing a fiery red competition uniform, had medium-short, slightly curly hair and neatly trimmed sideburns. Together with his handsome facial features, he gave off a fresh, sunny, and elegant vibe.
In terms of appearance, Cheng Qingyun and Tong Ying were naturally more beautiful. After all, Gao Zhengyang was a man. In this aspect, he still couldn't be compared to the two beauties. However, his appearance wasn't purely handsome. Combined with the shape of his face, his figure, his temperament, his eyes, and his behavior, he gave off a feeling that he was almost perfect.
Gao Zhengyang was able to achieve this because he constantly adjusted the state of his body with his mental power. His mental power and his body were constantly being strengthened, and his body was gradually becoming more and more perfect.
Of course, this kind of perfection wasn't based on the visual sense. Instead, Gao Zhengyang used his own body as a template to constantly push his body in that direction.
The audience couldn't understand such a deep level of understanding, so they would simply judge whether it was good or not.
Men were always very repulsed by other men, and few men would cheer for another man. Women were different. Two seconds after Gao Zhengyang appeared on the screen, the crazy cheers of women resounded throughout the venue.
At this moment, it didn't matter whether it was the home team or the away team. Only the female fans were venting crazily.
The host thought the scene was very funny. Those who didn't know better would think that it was a beauty contest. He said to his female partner who was cheering next to him, "This is Bei Chen's first appearance, and he's very popular with the female audience."
"Of course, he's handsome!"
The female host clicked her tongue and said, "Based on the current contestants in the League, Bei Chen is undoubtedly the most handsome male contestant. Cheng Qingyun and Tong Ying are also among the most handsome. However, there are a lot of beautiful girls in the League, and there isn't much difference between them … "
Seeing that the female host was going off topic, the male host hurriedly said, "Let's take a look at Bei Chen's profile. Twenty-one years old, one silver star. Wow, there are so many geniuses in Pegasus University this year. Let's see what kind of star armor he's good at, the Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor! "
The male host's voice was very loud, and it was full of disbelief.
The Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor was indeed very cool and beautiful, but it was only for private use. No one would use this kind of star armor in an official competition. It wasn't a joke to be seen on the runway.
Of course, there were people who used the Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor in the League. It was one of the designated silver star armor models in the League.
However, the contestants who used the Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor only wanted to show off when facing weaker opponents. For the weak, it was normal for them to show off a little.
Of course, the weak would feel humiliated, but it was even more humiliating for the weak to not be able to win when the opponent intentionally weakened their strength.
Pegasus University had changed four members this time. In terms of star master level, they could crush Zheng Jia University. The question was, how strong were the four contestants who had never been on the field? That was the question!
The League had its own complete internal rules and all kinds of mature tactics. For star masters who weren't familiar with the game, strength didn't decide everything.
The members of Zheng Jia University shouted in dissatisfaction when they saw the Radiant Flying Scale Star Armor Gao Zhengyang was using.
Yu Yi took the opportunity to say, "He's so arrogant. He doesn't respect us at all. Let's teach him a lesson!"
The female assistant wanted to say something but stopped. She suddenly thought of something, but she wasn't sure. Even if she was sure, she couldn't say it out loud. It would be too demoralizing.
After the away team entered the stadium, it was the home team's turn. Since it was the home team, the five contestants all received loud cheers.
Gao Zhengyang didn't even look at the five contestants. He didn't care about a bunch of Bronze rank weaklings.
He said to Wu Shuang, "Don't be nervous. They're just a bunch of weaklings. Just take the top path and defend the base on the top path. Don't worry about anything else. "
Wu Shuang nodded. She was using the Golden Shield Star Armor. According to the Pro League's custom, she was using the Upper Path. According to the League's custom, she had to take the top path because there was a giant Rainbow Demon Star Beast in the opponent's jungle. This Star Beast was extremely useful for long-range star masters.
Therefore, the archer had to take the top path. Wu Shuang had actually only played a few words with the team yesterday. She felt that it was very simple.
Each team had four bases. The most important one was the main base, followed by the three smaller bases. The three smaller bases were divided into three paths, each guarding a path.
The three smaller bases all had defensive weapons and could even charge star power crystals. There was also a special refining furnace that could be used to kill the opponent's star armor and mechanical troops to obtain various parts to upgrade one's own star armor.
The three smaller bases were very important. If the bases were destroyed, the path would be lost. If a star master wanted to upgrade their star armor, they could only go to the main base or the other two smaller bases.
The defenses of the smaller bases were very strong. Both sides had to use the mechanical troops manufactured by the main base as the vanguard in order to charge into the base. Otherwise, the enemy star masters would be easily killed when they rushed into the base.
The three smaller bases guarded the three paths. Outside the paths was a vast area. It was commonly called the wilderness. There were all kinds of star beasts in the wilderness. Players could obtain materials by killing star beasts to upgrade their star armor.
Star Armor King, a team battle game, actually retained many game elements. This included the star masters who fought. Everyone would be given three spirit resonance cores to control the star armor.
In other words, each star master could actually die four times. This setting was completely out of consideration for the game. Although there were spirit resonance cores that could control the star armor, the effect was very poor. Also, spirit resonance cores were very expensive.
Four lives gave the contestants a lot of room for error. At the same time, it made the game extremely complicated.
The match soon began. A large map was displayed in front of the audience. As the camera moved forward, both teams appeared in the main base.
The screen was divided into five parts, each following a player. Of course, this fixed screen kept switching between the host and the guest team.
The male host said, "I'm very curious about Pegasus University. I don't know what strategy they're going to use to start the match. Oh, Zheng Jia University is very bold. Four of them went to the local wilderness to open the Rainbow Demon. If they get this red, it'll be very beneficial for the archer … Contestant Bei Chen went into the red zone. It's too risky, one against four. Wow, wow, wow, wow … "
The male host screamed a few times. After a while, he said, "I can't believe it. Contestant Bei Chen completed four kills alone!"
At this moment, the audience burst into exclamations. No one could have imagined this result. Bei Chen easily completed four kills, one against four. His star armor wasn't damaged at all.
This was too shocking. It meant that the two sides were not on the same level at all.
Zheng Jia University's coach, Yu Yi, also opened his eyes wide. He exclaimed, "What, what's going on?"
The female assistant said weakly, "Coach, I remember now. Bei Chen is the one who played the piano with a star armor …"
Yu Yi looked at the female assistant and thought for a while. He suddenly realized something. "Huh? Oh, f * ck! "
