Ye Shaoyang used [Frost Goddess] to play ranked matches for the whole day.
For those who were ranked above 50 stars in King of Kings, winning a round would increase their combat power by more than 500. If they lost and became the MVP of the losing team, their combat power would be reduced by less than 50 points. His [Frost Goddess] had always maintained a win rate of 80%, so his combat power increased very quickly.
For the next two days, he also used [Frost Goddess] to play ranked matches.
At midnight on Wednesday, his [Frost Goddess] had reached 10,000 combat power.
The netizens who watched his live stream were in awe of the speed at which he increased his combat power.
Many netizens were stuck at the diamond rank, and their hero combat power was at most 3,000. They could not increase their combat power no matter how hard they tried. They might not even be able to get into the city rankings, let alone the national server. However, in just two days, Xiao Bai had played dozens of ranked matches, and his win rate was above 80%. Just like that, he had reached 10,000 combat power!
Are we playing the same game?
Host, are you human? Oh no, you're a cat. Cats are really good at playing games!
Why is Xiao Bai's combo speed like a tentacle monster? And I'm like a handicapped person?
My brain tells me, 'You can.' My hands tell me, 'No, you can't.'
The netizens in Xiao Bai's live stream room spammed the screen every day, and some wild tycoons also appeared on the gift list in Xiao Bai's live stream room.
Although Ye Shaoyang was very popular, he did not have an official fan group until now. Qin Rui saw the flood of requests for friend requests in the bullet screen and enthusiastically suggested, "Brother, you can set up a few groups and pull your fans in. I've seen other streamers do the same. Many streamers even bring their fans in at fixed times."
Ye Shaoyang thought for a while and nodded in agreement, "I don't know how to do this. Why don't you do it for me?"
Qin Rui immediately went to create a new account and changed the announcement in Xiao Bai's live stream room to "Fans with VIP-3 and above can add XXXX. Add everyone to Xiao Bai's fan group."
Immediately, many netizens added Qin Rui's account. In order to reach VIP-3, some of them even signed up for a year's worth of membership cards.
Qin Rui opened a group chat. It was full, so he opened another one …
In the blink of an eye, the dozen or so groups were all full.
Qin Rui said excitedly, "Brother, you're so popular!"
Ye Shaoyang was also pulled into the fan group by Xiao Rui. He changed his name to "Streamer Xiao Bai" and popped up to greet everyone. "Thank you for your support, everyone. I've been busy with the Chinese server recently, so I don't have time to carry you guys. Once I get the eight heroes' national server standards, I'll look at the situation and bring everyone to play ranked games. "
The group members were dumbfounded.
The national server logo of 8 heroes?
Little Bai, are you serious? [Pupil Quake.Jpg]
F * ck, am I following a monster?
I seem to have entered a potential stock? Xiao Bai, if you have time in the future, take me to the next level ~
I remember that Whale's Big Brother Little Wei only got 4 national server titles. Little Bai wants to get 8?
Little Wei had gotten another one in the past two days. Currently, there were five national server emblems and all of them were Archer Heroes.
Streamer, you can surpass Xiao Wei! I have high hopes for you!
There were too many people in the group, and the comments were dazzling. There were also a bunch of emojis.
Ye Shaoyang asked Xiao Rui to help him manage the fan group while he continued to stream.
At the same time, in a group called [Streamer Lianmeng] —
[Streamer Universe]: F * ck, this newbie is crazy!
[Streamer Universe]: [Screenscreen.jpg]
The content of the screenshot was exactly what Ye Shaoyang had said in the group.
Once I get the eight heroes' national server standards, I'll look at the situation and bring everyone to play ranked games.
There was also a fan who said that the streamer was better than Little Wei.
This news immediately caused a stir. Many people popped up to discuss it —
[Streamer Yulin]: What's up with this Little Bai? How dare he challenge our Brother Wei's position?
[Weiwei]: I think he's a newbie from Whale. I saw that he's on the new streamer leaderboard.
[Cute Bear]: He's too arrogant. Does he think that the Chinese server is his backyard? That he can take it as he pleases?
[Streamer Miqi]: A Yuge, didn't this guy take away your Illusionist's No.1 spot?
[A Yuge]: …
A Yuge was angry when he thought of this. On Monday, the system sent him a notification. Although his Illusionist's combat power was 12000, his average score was lower than Little Bai's, so he was pushed to second place in the Chinese server.
Although the top ten in the Chinese server would have the "National Server Logo" in the upper left corner, only the first place would have the golden championship trophy logo. The second place would have a silver trophy.
The Illusionist was Brother Ah Yu's signature hero. He had spent a long time on it, but in the end, it had only been a month since he became the number one player in the country. He hadn't even warmed up to it, and now he had been pushed down?
A Yuge had already scolded Little Bai from head to toe several times in private. He felt that this Little Bai was specifically targeting him. No matter if it was the "Thanks for letting me win ^ _ ^" in the ranking game or the "No.1" in the Chinese server, why did he have to target him and make things difficult for him?!
A Yuge sneered as he typed —
[A Yuge]: He's just a newbie who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
[A Yuge]: I can't even be bothered to argue with him.
[A Yuge]: He put a cat in the livestream. He's quite good at creating hype. Many people in his livestream weren't there to watch him play games, but to watch the cat.
[A Yuge]: He's really shameless for the sake of creating hype.
[Streamer Miqi]: F * ck, you can do that?
[Streamer Miqi]: This is the first time I've seen a game streamer put a cat in the livestream! This person is really unscrupulous in order to get to the top!
[Streamer Miqi]: I've seen him rushing for Goddess of Frost's national server. I remember that Goddess of Frost's No.1 was taken by @ [Cute Bear]?
[Cute Bear]: …
[Cute Bear]: I took it a long time ago. I haven't played this hero recently.
[Streamer Miqi]: This newbie seems to be quite ambitious. Is he trying to get first place in this year's new streamers' annual ranking in December?
[A Yuge]: Don't joke around. With his little fan base, I'll eat my keyboard live if he can get first place!
Just as everyone was discussing heatedly, a voice that didn't fit in with the group suddenly appeared.
[Mumu]: Are you talking about Streamer Xiao Bai?
[Mumu]: His cat is quite cute ~
Soon, someone else appeared.
[Streamer Xiao Wei]: Sister Mu, pull me in to play ranked games tonight. Help me out.
[Streamer Xiao Wei]: I've been losing in ranked games recently. I've lost so much that my underwear is about to fall off. F * ck.
[Mumu]: Don't play ranked games tonight. Play the Pinnacle Tournament.
[Streamer Xiao Wei]: Oh right, the Pinnacle Tournament is on Wednesday. I almost forgot about that!
[Streamer Xiao Wei]: Play the Pinnacle Tournament tonight.
This group was a mix of good and bad people. There were game streamers from all major platforms. There were more than 500 members in this group. Even the big brother and sister, who had more than 10 million fans on Whale Streaming, were blown up. Everyone popped up to greet the two top streamers.
But strangely, the two of them didn't seem to have any intention of scolding Xiao Bai with everyone else.
Instead, they seemed to be changing the topic.
At midnight, the night owl game streamers were the most active. After the topic in the group changed, everyone began to talk about the Pinnacle Tournament. Ye Shaoyang was already asleep.
When he woke up the next morning, the game's login screen suddenly began to update. [Version 9.3.16 Update Pack 1.02G. The update pack is being automatically downloaded for you. Please wait.]
Such a big update pack?
Ye Shaoyang immediately clicked on the update announcement.
The content of this update included skin optimization, skill optimization, and a lot of complicated activities and missions. There were also rewards of gold coins and skin redemption coupons.
Ye Shaoyang would have skipped over these activities in his previous life. His focus had always been on playing games and training heroes. He only felt that these things were troublesome.
However, there was one announcement that caught his attention.
After the update on Wednesday, the entire server would start the new season's Pinnacle Tournament.
The rules of the Pinnacle Tournament were different from the ranked games. Every night from 8 to 12, it would start at a fixed time. Only the strongest players could sign up for it. Teams were not allowed. All players would enter the arena alone. The entire server would be randomly matched. They would start from the 1,000th stage. Points would be added if they won, and points would be deducted if they lost. The server's Pinnacle Tournament ranking would be held every week.
The specific rules for the hero's combat power and points were listed in a table by the officials.
Ye Shaoyang studied the table carefully. He then realized that the Pinnacle Tournament would increase the combat power of the hero faster! If he could reach the 2,000th stage and win a round, the combat power of the hero would increase by a lot compared to when he was ranked! This was because the combat power of the hero in the Pinnacle Tournament would be multiplied by a coefficient. The higher the stage, the higher the coefficient.
This was easy to understand. The difficulty of killing 10 newbies in the bronze stage was completely different from killing 10 experts in the higher stages of the Pinnacle Tournament. Therefore, the higher the stage, the more combat power would increase by winning a round.
Of course, it was not so easy to reach the 2,000th stage.
After the update today, the season's Pinnacle Tournament would officially start. All the strongest players could sign up. This also meant that all the strongest players in the server were standing on the same starting line.
Ye Shaoyang could not help but feel a little excited.
The Pinnacle Tournament was stricter than the normal ranking. Since teams were not allowed, there would not be gay friends, couples, or girlfriends. Some newbies who did not play well and needed "friends to carry" would rarely torture themselves in such tournaments. In addition, the tournament used a point system. Cursing, fighting for position, and AFK would be relatively rare.
It could be said that the Pinnacle Tournament was more like a fair national competition.
Compared to the national server standard, the weekly national ranking of the Pinnacle Tournament would attract the attention of the major clubs.
For the national server standard, players would have to click on a specific hero to check the ranking. However, the champion of the Pinnacle Tournament would be displayed on the home page as long as the Pinnacle Tournament panel was opened.
If he engraved Xiao Bai's name on the champion list of the Pinnacle Tournament, would it not prove his strength? Thinking of this, Ye Shaoyang immediately changed the name of his live stream to "Pinnacle Tournament at 8 PM."
After seeing the name change, the fan group immediately exploded.
Xiao Bai was going to play in the Pinnacle Tournament?
The Pinnacle Tournament at the beginning of the season was especially scary. There were countless demons and monsters!
Everyone started at the 1,000th stage. There were many experts. Streamer, why don't you wait a few days and start at the 1,000th stage after those experts have reached the 1,500th stage? It would be much easier.
Yes, the Pinnacle Tournament had just started today. The 1,000th stage would probably be very crowded tonight!
Since the registration requirement for the Pinnacle Tournament was to be in the "Greatest King" division, the threshold was very high.
At the beginning of the season, everyone was in the 1,000th stage. Even world-class professional players like Chi Shuo and Fang Zhengqing had to start at the 1,000th stage to play in the Pinnacle Tournament.
This also meant that the 1,000th stage at the beginning of the season was really "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".
Ye Shaoyang was not afraid of the situation where there were so many experts. On the contrary, it was more meaningful to be able to kill his way through the Pinnacle Tournament. It would also be a good way to hone his skills compared to simply obtaining the national server standard.
Moreover, there was no conflict between competing in the Pinnacle Tournament and obtaining the national server standard.
The strength of the heroes in the Pinnacle Tournament would be even higher.
After the update was completed, Ye Shaoyang practiced his heroes in the Human and Machine Training Camp for half an hour. At 10 o 'clock sharp, he started his ranked live stream. When he went offline at 12 o 'clock, his [Frost Goddess] combat power had reached 12000. Although the system hadn't announced it yet, his average score was more than 15 points (out of 16 points). This hero was destined to be number one in the country.
He looked at the rankings. [Frost Goddess]'s original first place in the national server was taken by a streamer called [Cute Bear]. He would definitely offend some game streamers if he took away someone else's first place.
However, he had no choice. This was what he had to do. Moreover, the ranking of heroes was a fair competition. If you couldn't maintain your first place in the national server, it would only prove that your skills were not as good as others.
He did not start his live stream in the afternoon. Instead, he continued to watch the recordings of the Professional League as he had planned. After dinner, Ye Shaoyang washed his face and sat in front of his computer at 7: 45.
There were still 15 minutes before the Pinnacle Tournament. He went to the training camp to practice his heroes. At 8 o 'clock sharp, he saw the [Pinnacle Tournament] logo on the top left corner of his screen light up. After he opened it, a notification popped up. [Season 9.3's Pinnacle Tournament has begun. Do you want to register?]
Ye Shaoyang pressed register.
Your current Pinnacle Tournament stage is: 1000 points.
Win a round + 20 points. Lose a round -20 points.
At the end of the season, players above the 2000 stage in the Pinnacle Tournament will receive 100,000 gold coins and a limited skin for the Pinnacle Tournament. The top 100 players in the entire server will receive 10,000 points. The top 10 players will receive a limited season peripheral and a customized trophy.
With such generous rewards, there must be a lot of players participating in the Pinnacle Tournament.
Ye Shaoyang closed the notification window and pressed the [Start Pinnacle Tournament] button in the center of the screen.
[Looking for teammates and opponents for you.]
[Matches have been matched. Please get ready.]
Ye Shaoyang clicked into the competition room and saw that there was one more ban slot than usual for the Pinnacle Tournament. Usually, both sides would ban two heroes each. In the Pinnacle Tournament, both sides would ban three heroes each. A total of six heroes would be locked in a small black room. Of course, in the Pro League, both sides would ban four heroes each. Eight heroes would be locked in a small black room, which tested the hero pool even more.
Due to the anonymity system, the team list only showed: Player 1, Player 2 …
He was Player 5.
He was on the lowest floor, the fifth floor, and the last hero would be chosen.
Ye Shaoyang was just about to type, "I'll take the middle lane," when his teammate banned Lord of the Abyss.
Of course, it was understandable that a newly released hero would be banned. Many people were not familiar with the new hero.
Following that, his opponent banned Illusionist. Heroes like Illusionist, who had a burst of power, were especially easy to suppress in the early stages. They would snowball continuously and end the game quickly. The losing side's gaming experience would be very bad.
Then, our teammate banned [Frost Goddess].
Ye Shaoyang did not understand why his teammate banned Frost Goddess. Maybe it was because he had encountered the abnormal Frost Goddess when they were playing ranked, so he was traumatized?
The netizens in Xiao Bai's live broadcast room laughed like crazy.
Xiao Bai was so pitiful. All three of his heroes were banned!
Lord of the Abyss, Illusionist, and Frost Goddess, did they peek at Xiao Bai's hero pool?
Xiao Bai, they must have sensed that Player 5 had a murderous aura, so they banned your heroes.
Hahaha, his teammate was a spy sent by the enemy, so he only banned Player 5's best heroes.
Ye Shaoyang was speechless.
Ye Shaoyang did not know whether to laugh or cry when his teammate banned his three heroes. When he entered the competition, he seemed to have forgotten to set the "Best Heroes" column.
Fortunately, he had increased the proficiency of all six goddesses to 100 in order to play ranked.
Frost Goddess was banned, so he could play something else.
