As the saying goes, there is motivation when there is pressure. The competition was bustling with activity, and all the participating teams were working hard to improve themselves.
Those who were competing observed their opponents in the arena, and those who weren't competing worked hard to level up.
Wang Yu's group didn't idle around either. Although they said that winning or losing didn't matter, and that the most important thing was to participate, they still took it very seriously. After all, if you fell behind, you would be beaten. This was the ancient teaching of their ancestors, and to this group of people who loved to fight, it was even more so.
In the next three days, Wang Yu's group leveled up and killed bosses during the day, and watched match videos at night to analyze their opponents and devise strategies. They were all very busy.
In three days, the average level of the team rose to 47.
Two levels wasn't a big improvement, but it wasn't small either. Although they hadn't reached level 50 and couldn't learn new skills, it was better than no improvement at all. At the same time, the results for groups B, C, and D were also out.
As expected of a brand new format, the average level of the teams this time was surprisingly high. There were many dark horses in each region, and Quanzhen's limelight was completely suppressed by the teams that came later. However, the Unparalleled Combat team was still at the top, occupying the top spot.
At this time, in Quanzhen's office, Ming Jian Daoxue was holding a map that he had just drawn. "The results of the top eight are out. Our first opponent tomorrow is called 'Harmony Team'."
"Oh …" No one was very interested in Ming Jian Daoxue's information.
Harmony Team was the winner of group D. Everyone had seen this team's matches. In the top eight in the seventh region, they were a relatively average team, and not much was known about them.
Actually, in general, the level of the winners of groups B, C, and D was about the same. What puzzled everyone the most were the four teams that didn't have a bye.
This was because the four teams that didn't have a bye were the four teams that were judged by the system to be the strongest … Even the Raptor Team couldn't have a bye, so these four teams definitely weren't weak.
With regards to these four unknown opponents, everyone's interest was quite high.
Mingjian Daoxue also knew that Harmony's skill level wasn't that great. Seeing that the others weren't interested, he quickly added, "Right now, the forums have already opened a betting window. All the top eight teams have their names on the leaderboard. Is everyone interested in playing?
When they heard that Ming Jian Daoxue had opened the bets, the eyes of the Quan Zhen people immediately lit up. These gamblers were really stubborn.
Especially Chun Xiang, who immediately jumped up and asked, "What are our odds?"
"1 to 3," Mingjian Daoxue said as he looked at the small notebook in his hand.
"F * ck, why is it so high?" Chun Xiang was both excited and dissatisfied when he saw that his odds were so high.
The higher the odds, the lower the evaluation. Quanzhen's ragtag team was a team that had won the first round. How could their evaluation be so low?
Michio Ken spread his hands and said, "That's because we won the first round, and the excitement of the three days has long since passed … Besides, our squadron has just been established, and our name isn't that famous to begin with. There are also four squadrons that have already gotten a bye, so it's normal for the odds to be high."
This was also the truth. The speed at which internet celebrities changed was much faster than in real life. If there was no one to specially hype them up, they would become famous on the first day and fall the next. This was a common occurrence.
Quanzhen's ragtag team was just a newly established squadron. Other than Yu Huicheng players, not many people knew about them … In addition, it had been a long time since the first day of the competition, so it was normal for them to be forgotten.
"That's fine. I have a thousand gold here. Daoxue, you go and bet on us becoming the champion." Chun Xiang took out a bag of gold and threw it to Mingjian Daoxue.
Chun Xiang was famous for being meticulous with his calculations and winning every bet he made. Seeing that Chun Xiang had placed his bet, the others also took out their money and followed suit.
In the end, even Mu Zixian threw out a hundred gold.
Seeing this, Wang Yu asked in surprise, "Don't you hate gambling the most?"
Mu Zixian said, "I'll make an exception this time to encourage you guys!"
"Then why don't you bet more? It's impossible for us to lose anyway." Wang Yu laughed.
"How can you be so sure?"
"Because I'm here …" Wang Yu said shamelessly.
Everyone: "…"
On the fourth day of the qualifiers, which was also the last day of the qualifiers, everyone finally welcomed the semifinals of the top eight.
The venue was still the City of War God's Public Arena. Because it was the last day of the competition, the standard was several levels higher than the previous few days. Almost all the players in the region put down what they were doing and came to watch the competition.
The number of spectators had already exceeded the system's expectations. The Public Arena was truly full, and the game company had no choice but to temporarily open up an instance dungeon space to avoid the embarrassing situation of "missing tickets".
Other than the top eight teams in the semifinals, there were also two teams that had won the semifinals, for a total of ten teams.
Very unexpectedly, in the resting room backstage, Wang Yu's group met their old rivals, the Scarlet Flame Squadron … Rolling Mario was followed by Mo Xiaobei and Red Spider Lily, who sat beside Quanzhen's squadron in an incomparably coquettish manner.
"Hey, Old Cow, your squadron's flag isn't bad …" Before Wang Yu could speak, Rolling Mario greeted him first.
Wang Yu said, "Hehe, impressive, right? I designed it!"
"Impressive, impressive!" Rolling Mario nodded.
"Speaking of which, why are you guys here?" Wang Yu turned his head and asked in bewilderment, "I remember that you guys were eliminated by us in Thorn City?"
"Hehe!" The rolling Mario smiled proudly and said, "We lost to you last time, okay? Relying on my intelligence, I will soon turn the tables."
"But the team that won this time wasn't you guys? Speaking of which, which team are you in? "To Place One's Pride asked from the side.
Everyone had seen the videos of the four winning teams, and the Scarlet Flame Squadron wasn't among them.
"Team B." Rolling Mario laughed. "It's all thanks to you guys …"
"Oh? What does that have to do with us? "Wang Yu asked doubtfully.
"It's all thanks to you guys beating the Raptor Squadron until they surrendered. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to win the semifinals." Rolling Mario's words were filled with relief.
"Then you guys are really pitiful." Wang Yu shook his head repeatedly.
“？？？”
Rolling Mario was confused at first, then he laughed. "You should say that you were lucky, Old Cow! Don't be jealous of me. "
"Why would I be jealous of you? You resurrected twice in a row just to send us a kill. It must have been hard on you." Wang Yu said with a smile.
What Wang Yu said was right. Luck could only be regarded as a surprise attack. In a competition, what mattered the most was one's strength … The Scarlet Flame Battle Team's strength wasn't too strong. Even if they didn't lose to the Quan Zhen Sect, they would still lose to others … The fact that they had revived twice to die could only mean that Mario, who had rolled, was very hardworking.
"F * ck! You despicable cow! "Mario, who was rolling on the ground, pointed his middle finger at Wang Yu.
