In the principal's office.
Lu Ming looked at the information in front of him expressionlessly.
Well …
The records of the college at the crossroads.
The first batch of teams was eliminated with a 5: 0 score.
The second batch of teams was eliminated with a 4: 1 score.
The third batch of teams was eliminated with a 5: 0 score.
…
The fiftieth batch of teams was eliminated with a 5: 0 score.
It was over.
There were a total of fifty times and they didn't even pass a single round of auditions!
"Didn't the school produce Four Stars before?"
Lu Ming was shocked. There were Four Stars and they didn't even pass a round of auditions?
"They didn't make it."
An Mufeng smiled bitterly. "Our school has limited resources. Even if there are Four Stars, they have to train hard and barely reach Four Stars before graduation. The School Championship Competition is usually held at the end of the year. If they can't make it, they have to work hard for Four Stars. It's even more impossible for them to participate in the meaningless School Championship Competition. "
"What about the other Three Stars?"
Lu Ming pondered deeply.
Four-star cultivators were rare, but there should be some three-star cultivators.
"There is."
An Muxi recalled. "There were a few teams that did have Three Stars as their captain but they were defeated by Two Stars from other colleges during the competition."
Lu Ming was speechless.
This was amazing!
Three Stars were defeated by Two Stars!
However, thinking about it …
In this world, there was a group of people who could challenge those of a higher level and were very powerful. What about those who were challenged by them? Well, it was this group of people from their college.
They were conscientious.
They were never offside.
They did their job as stepping stones in silence. They were like a Buddha and a salted fish at the same time.
"This is worrying."
Lu Ming had a headache.
The principal of this school was too lousy. After so many years, the school had not improved at all. He felt that he couldn't help it.
However, in order to successfully break through to Four Stars, he really had to fight for it!
Wasn't it just the School Championship Competition?
Let's do it!
Lu Ming thought about it.
Although the duration of the School Championship was long, the tournament itself did not take up too much time. It did not affect one's cultivation at all.
This time, they were going to form a team to play around. As long as they reached the top 100, they would retreat. Not only would they not waste their cultivation time, they would also be able to preserve the academy.
Perfect.
Lu Ming was very satisfied with this plan.
As for the name list …
"I'm preparing to form a team to participate in the competition."
Lu Ming thought for a moment. "Teacher An, please go through the procedures later."
"Alright."
An Mufeng nodded. "Which people? Do you want me to look for the Three Star? "
In his impression.
There were still two Three Star students in the academy this year.
"No need."
Lu Ming's mouth twitched. He was about to graduate and was only a Three Star. Useless. He might even be defeated by Two Stars. What was the point of looking for them? Become a stepping stone for others?
"Xia Yu."
"Chang Liang."
"Zhang Xiaopang."
Lu Ming read out these few names.
Xia Yu, Sharpshooter. His ability was unknown. He had a very powerful bow and a Demon Subduing Arrow. He exuded an aura of 'I'm very rich and I'm the second generation'.
Chang Liang. His ability and fighting style were very special. He could catch his opponent by surprise. He might have a higher chance of winning!
As for Zhang Xiaopang …
It was better not to mention him.
This guy's survival ability and ability to cause trouble were very strong. Anyway, he would not die if he was thrown into the cave. His Illusion of One Star could even affect Fu Hongming …
God knew what kind of black technology he had.
Anyway, this guy should have no problem with his combat ability. In that case, he would have three people.
"What about the other two?"
An Mufeng asked.
"Me."
Lu Ming said.
"Huh?"
An Mufeng was stunned. "Aren't you a Card Creator?"
"Isn't it enough as long as I can fight?"
Lu Ming shrugged.
Uh —
An Mufeng scratched his head.
Although Lu Ming performed very well in the mine cave, the vocation of a Card Creator …
How should he put it?
He was at an absolute disadvantage in the competition!
Firstly, the rules of the competition stated that every vocation could only use things with their own aura, be it weapons, bows and arrows or cards!
They had to create the cards themselves!
Even if a Card Creator could hoard cards, there would not be too many of them.
Secondly, their physique was too weak and they could easily be defeated by sneak attacks.
One could use the cards that they had created in advance to hit others, but how many rounds could they hit? No matter what move the card used, they could not avoid the fact that the body was too weak.
As long as they could get close to the opponent, one move would be over.
This point …
A Card Creator was much weaker than an Elementalist.
Thirdly, they lacked combat experience.
This was the most fatal point.
Combat Professions were built by fighting, and some were built by killing!
What about a Card Creator?
They were all homebodies.
The only place they could exercise was on the bed or in front of the computer. How could they have any combat experience?
There was also a Card Creator in the School Championship Competition last year. He hoarded a bunch of cards and threw them out. However, he did not manage to hit any of them and was kicked out by the opponent in a few steps.
…
Did Lu Ming really want to participate?
An Mufeng wanted to persuade him.
However, on second thought, he had already lost fifty times in a row. What was there to be afraid of? Since Lu Ming wanted to play, he would play happily. Anyway, after this experience, it would be beneficial for Lu Ming to gain some experience.
At the thought of this, An Mufeng became more relaxed.
"What about the other one?"
An Mufeng looked at the name list. There was one person missing.
"Liu Yuan."
Lu Ming said in a low voice.
"Liu Yuan?"
An Mufeng was a little puzzled. He did not have any impression of her. He specially flipped through the information and looked at Lu Ming with a strange expression. It turned out that he was bringing a girl to win points …
"I've noted it down."
An Mufeng nodded. "One more substitute will do. According to the rules of the School Championship Competition, it is more reasonable to have a substitute in the 5 + 1 competition."
"Substitute …"
Lu Ming pondered deeply. "Let's write Jiang Yuebai."
"She is not from our school."
An Mufeng looked bitter. How could he mess around like that?
"The principal's seal is at the side. I'll stamp it later."
Lu Ming waved his hands. "Let's just use her name first. Anyway, it won't affect us much. Besides, Xiao Bai is already a Two Stars. It's good for her to follow me around."
"Alright."
An Mufeng was very relaxed again.
Anyway, it was just for fun. It was up to him.
Hence …
On the same day.
The college at the crossroad signed up for the School Championship Competition. The list of participants: Lu Ming, Xia Yu, Chang Liang, Liu Yuan, Zhang Xuerou, and the substitute, Jiang Yuebai.
The students were shocked when they heard the news.
"Why are only three out of the four geniuses participating?"
"It's strange!"
"Why didn't Zhang Xiaopang participate?"
"Why are Liu Yuan and Zhang Xuerou participating? What about Zhang Xiaopang? "
"Exactly!"
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Obviously …
Most people knew who Zhang Xuerou was …
At this very moment …
In the school conference room.
A few dazed team members had been gathered together.
"This is the school's honor!"
Lu Ming was impassioned. "Now that the school is in danger, how can we not have a sense of collective honor! The higher-ups will only approve more funds if we get a better ranking! "
"Don't they want the teachers' salaries?"
"How can the students not have benefits?"
"At this time, we have to unite as one!"
"The principal gave us this difficult task because he believes in everyone!"
Lu Ming was righteous. "Now, it's time for us to prove ourselves!"
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Xia Yu and the rest nodded one after another.
"…"
An Mufeng took a glance and did not say a word.
That was not what Jiang Feng had told him the other day. Well, fortunately, Principal Jiang was not around. Otherwise, he would have scolded Lu Ming to death …
"The School Championship Competition is actually very simple."
Lu Ming instructed, "We only need to go there for a few rounds of competition."
They fought their way to 3,200 in the pre-selection!
They fought their way to 1,600 in the preliminary round!
According to Lu Ming's estimation, as long as they won six competitions, they would rush to the top 100. By then, they would be at their limit and they would retreat.
Before that, they had to win.
"What if we can't beat them?"
Zhang Xiaopang was terrified.
"Don't worry.
"We will definitely win!
"I have a battle plan!"
Lu Ming smiled faintly. "Our battle plan is like this — In the pre-selection, I'll go first and it ends. In the preliminary round, I'll go first and it ends. In the semi-finals, I'll go first and it ends … "
???
Everyone was dumbstruck.
Crap.
What the hell was this plan?!
"Is there something wrong with this plan of yours?"
An Mufeng was also a little dumbstruck.
God knew.
Fearing that the students would not agree, he had specially spent more than ten minutes consoling and mobilizing them. In the end, he had settled it himself?!
Since he was already fighting one against five, why did he still ask them?
"The rules require five people."
Lu Ming said in a low voice, "Therefore, I need all of you."
Zhang Xiaopang was speechless.
Therefore, they were just audience members who did not need to buy tickets?
"Are you alright?"
Xia Yu was surprised.
"There shouldn't be any problem."
Lu Ming thought for a moment. "I've learned the Two Stars Peak Swordsman Card. After calculating the number of people, I'll prepare one card for each of them. Five cards will be enough to defeat all of them!"
"What if the other party manages to block it?"
Chang Liang asked weakly.
"Then I'll throw another card."
Lu Ming was calm.
At this stage, the Swordsman Card was enough to determine the outcome with one card!
Especially that Two Stars Card, it was comparable to Three Stars!
One sword was enough!
Yes.
This seemed to be a grand competition. However, after Lu Ming's analysis and calculations, it eventually became a matter of 6 * 5 = 30 Swordsman Cards.
Well …
They would be able to do it after two days of hard work.
As for the rest?
He would think about it when the time came.
Everyone was speechless.
So this was how the competition was played?
Then why the hell did he mobilize everyone and select the players so seriously?!
"I was afraid that you guys would be unhappy."
Lu Ming coughed.
"Forget it."
Zhang Xiaopang was speechless. "I'll take it that I've broadened my horizons."
The rest agreed as well.
The few of them had successfully broken through to Two Stars. Before they could rejoice, they saw Lu Ming's great plan of defeating thirty people …
Was there such a huge gap between them?
"Senior is mighty!"
Liu Yuan's eyes were filled with stars.
Lu Ming was very satisfied.
Well …
This was what a qualified team member should be like.
That was right.
Miss Liu Yuan was that adorable junior. Lu Ming deliberately brought this lady along this time because he wanted to broaden his horizons. There were also Xia Yu and the rest.
"You guys don't belong here.
"Don't be too quiet here …"
Lu Ming suddenly said.
Did they really need to shout '666' to choose them?
Obviously not.
He just did not want the incident of 'Li Haoran' to happen again. If a genius like Li Haoran could enter the First College, he might already be a five-star!
What about Xia Yu and the rest?
They were already Two Stars in their freshman year. They also had that kind of courage and talent. If they were to remain silent among the massive number of One Star cultivators at the crossroads, what would happen to them in the end?
They would fade into the crowd.
It was also good to broaden their horizons this time.
"Understood."
Everyone was vigilant and somewhat grateful.
"Okay.
Go back and prepare. The pre-selection will be held in seven days. "
Lu Ming's voice was low.
…
In the next few days, Lu Ming kept a low profile and created cards.
He had too many things to do. He had to digest the legacy of the Moon Shadow, he had to study the card combinations, he had to learn the foundation of Four Stars and he had to gradually increase his energy level.
Thankfully …
There was no conflict between these.
Seven days later.
The pre-selection finally began.
The pre-selection of various places was held separately. The location of Qing Ming City's pre-selection was at the Workers' Sports Center near the city center. It was a huge venue.
It was the first time for Lu Ming and the rest to come here.
They kept a low profile.
It was true.
As they knew very well that they were only there to watch the show, they only came when the competition was about to begin. However, they did not expect that they would be in an uproar the moment they entered the venue.
"Huh?"
"Is that the team from the technical school at the crossroads?"
"6666666 The legendary team that achieved fifty consecutive defeats in the pre-selection?"
"Crap!"
"I can't believe that I can see them participating in the pre-selection again?"
"In my lifetime!"
"This is the first time I have seen such a living legend!"
Everyone was amazed.
Yes.
The crossroads team was not as low-profile as they had imagined.
Or rather …
They were already famous.
The legend of fifty consecutive defeats in the pre-selection was not something that ordinary people could compare to.
"They actually dared to come again?"
"Amazing!"
"This is the real 'I can do it too' series."
"Forget it. Why are you bragging? You can do it too? Are you kidding me? Do you know the concept of fifty consecutive defeats? You can do it? What if you win? "
"… I can't refute you."
Everyone was discussing.
???
Lu Ming and the rest glanced at each other. Who would have thought that the crossroads would become so famous in the past?
"Was the school that amazing in the past?"
Lu Ming glanced at An Mufeng.
"Cough."
An Mufeng felt a little embarrassed.
He had almost forgotten what had happened many years ago.
"Forget it."
Lu Ming shook his head. He looked at the time. They had arrived on time. It should be their turn.
True enough.
Very soon, their names were announced.
Qing Ming Institute of Technology VS Crossroads Technical Vocational College!
"66666 It's a big draw."
"It's over. It seems that they are going to lose fifty-one consecutive defeats. Haha."
"Tsk tsk."
"It seems that we are going to witness history again."
The audience was delighted to see this.
Qing Ming Institute of Technology. One could tell from the name that it was one of the key schools in the area. It was also one of the best key schools in Qing Ming City. It was very powerful. Perhaps it was not considered much in the big circle region. However, in Qing Ming City, it was a giant. The team leader this time was a Three Star!
The crossroads …
They were afraid that fifty-one consecutive defeats would happen.
"I reckon that they are under a lot of pressure."
Someone sympathized with them.
"Shouldn't Qing Ming Institute of Technology be under a lot of pressure?"
Someone pursed his lips.
"Why?"
"Think about it. Isn't it a given that Qing Ming Institute of Technology will win? No one will find it strange. However, if they lose … I'm afraid that they will go down in history as the terminator of fifty consecutive defeats … Tsk tsk. "
"… Crap, it's true."
Everyone came to their senses.
Hence …
Everyone passed the cards to each other and it was even more joyous to watch.
At this very moment …
The contestants from both parties went on stage.
"Hello."
Qing Ming Institute of Technology sent a peak Two Star Energy Warrior. He frowned slightly and glanced at Lu Ming. "You are actually a Card Creator? Sigh, your school can't even gather combat vocations? "
"Hehe."
Lu Ming merely smiled faintly.
Shush!
He raised his hand and a card dissipated in his hands.
Swoosh!
Lights flashed.
Before the cultivator opposite him could come to his senses, he felt a terrifying force blasting toward him. He instinctively used both hands to block in front of him.
Bang!
There was a deafening sound.
He was blasted out of the competition venue.
Buzz —
The numbers on the screen changed.
From the original 0: 0 to 1: 0.
Shush!
There was suddenly silence in the Workers' Sports Complex.
This …
He won just like that?
That peak Two Star was actually defeated by that Card Creator?
"Swordsman Card!"
"Interesting."
The team leader of Qing Ming Institute of Technology had a grave expression. "Be careful."
"Understood."
The peak Two Star Assassin went up to the stage.
He loved this kind of auxiliary vocation to show off the most. Card Creator? It was ridiculous. No matter how many cards one had stored, one's body's reaction speed …
Whoosh!
Lu Ming threw a card at his face.
Bang!
The Assassin who had just sneaked up to him was blasted out.
2: 0!
"Let me do it."
Bam!
A figure flew out.
3: 0!
"Let me try!"
Bam!
Another figure flew out.
4: 0!
The huge sports center was as quiet as a chicken.
Four cultivators from Qing Ming Institute of Technology were defeated in seconds and were blasted out. The Card Creator opposite them could not even be bothered to move his feet. He merely threw four cards!
At this very moment …
Less than a minute had passed!
Gulp!
Someone swallowed his saliva.
It was so clear in this quiet sports center.
However …
No one said anything to him because everyone was a little dumbstruck. W-what did this mean?
Four kills in seconds. The team from Qing Ming Institute of Technology was almost defeated on the spot. Were the people from the vocational college at the crossroads that powerful now?
Bam!
Bam!
A clear and crisp sound could be heard.
Everyone instinctively looked over and saw the team leader of Qing Ming Institute of Technology applauding as he walked up.
It was him!
Everyone's heart stirred slightly.
That Three Star cultivator from Qing Ming Institute of Technology!
Interesting.
Everyone felt energized. This battle was going to be interesting.
Fifty-one consecutive defeats?
Or fifty consecutive defeats?
Everyone felt a little excited. Who would have thought that the battle at the crossroads would be able to make them excited? They wondered who would win between the two of them …
"You are very good."
The team leader of Qing Ming Institute of Technology looked as usual. "You are merely a Card Creator and yet you can reach …"
Shush!
Lu Ming lifted his hand.
Bang!
The team leader who had just given himself three seconds of extra acting was instantly blasted out. He crashed into the wall in the distance and fell into a coma.
Shush!
The entire venue was silent.
Those who were looking forward to a hot-blooded battle were dumbstruck.
I-it had ended?
Crap!
What did this mean?!
They looked at the venue. From the beginning to the end, the Card Creator did not take a single step. He merely waved his hands casually and threw out five cards!
Just these five cards!
The team from Qing Ming Institute of Technology was defeated directly!
Was this a joke?
Everyone was silent.
There was no sound in the entire venue.
