At the end of the seventh round, there were only 2048 teams that still had hope of advancing. Desert Dust only had 106 teams left, and the big guilds in White Jade City were still leading the way.
At 8 o 'clock, Sword Points to the Heavens' eighth elimination round began. Zhang Yang's team faced the Tyrant's second team!
Zhang Yang's team gave them a clean 2: 0, easily advancing to the next round.
There were only two rounds on the third day. After eight rounds, the number of teams from Baiyu City was reduced to 1024. Desert Dust still had 61 Fire Seeds of Hope, far ahead of Angry Beauty's 33 and Lingtian's 24.
As for the Tyrant, which used to be one of the top guilds, they had lost a large number of their elite forces due to the withdrawal from the guild a few days ago. Only 12 teams remained in the promotion list, and this kind of result could barely be considered a top guild.
After the fourth day, the 1024 teams were reduced to 256. The quality of the teams was getting better and better, and their strength was getting closer and closer.
Starting from the fifth day, each team's matches were reduced to one. As long as a team beat a team, they would have hope of advancing.
128 balls, 64 balls, 32 balls …
The number of teams continued to dwindle, and by the end of the ninth day of the tournament, Baiyu City only had 8 teams remaining on the list. To ensure fairness, the leaders of each team drew lots to determine the matchups for tomorrow night's matches.
The matchups for these eight teams were:
Desert Dust's second team VS Sword and Fire Mercenaries' first team.
Angry Beauty's first team VS Lost Paradise's first team.
Lingtian's first team VS Blood Kill Alliance's first team.
Desert Dust's first team VS Tyrant's first team.
"Haha, you guys are really unlucky to meet us at this time!" Modest Gentleman walked in front of Zhang Yang, his tail about to rise to the sky. "It's a pity, you guys only need to advance one more round … tsk tsk tsk!"
"Ugly, you guys are the ones who are finished!" Wei Yan'er jumped out and fiercely waved her fist at the gentleman. "Tomorrow will be your doomsday. Tremble, rookies!"
Zhang Yang couldn't help but laugh. "Little girl, where did you learn that?"
Wei Yan 'er raised her head. "Wasn't I very handsome just now?"
"So handsome!"
"Hmph!" The Modest Gentleman pretended to be profound as he tilted his head.
Thousand Ascension Stranger smiled and said, "Guild Leader, some people will learn to be obedient after tomorrow!"
"Well said!" Modest Gentleman laughed.
Both sides were already enemies, so there was no need for them to conceal their hostility. For a moment, both sides were at daggers drawn, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
"Just wait and see!"
After saying this, both parties parted on bad terms.
December 10th, the final round of the Sword Pointing at the Heavens Conference qualifiers officially began!
Up to this point, the teams that were able to remain in the battlefield were naturally the true powerhouses. Hence, the duel between them attracted a large number of players to watch. The game developers had also specially arranged for the four matches to be held separately so that players would not miss any of the exciting battles!
At 7 o 'clock, the first match was between Desert Dust's second team and Sword and Fire Mercenaries' first team.
The members of Desert Dust's second team were: Fatty Han, Hundred Bullets One, Gujia Luo, Sweetheart Dream, No Return Dream.
The members of Sword and Fire Mercenaries' first team were: Overlord Sword (Shield Warrior, Level 61), 44 Thieves (Assassin Thief, Level 61), Chrysanthemum Destruction (Fire Mage, Level 61), Hit Point (Hunter, Level 61), Seven Foot Soul (Holy Paladin, Level 61).
Five minutes before the start of the match, Zhang Yang, Han Yingxue, and the others all entered the arena's stands in advance, waiting for the match to begin.
Dream Technology had a way of making money. The last day of the competition was actually a fee system! To enter, they had to pay 10 gold! The UI could also see the number of spectators in the arena's stands. When Zhang Yang and the others entered, it was only 5,118, but within a minute, the number quickly rose to 100,000, and then to 1,000,000!
A million people meant a profit of ten million gold coins. This was a robbery!
Zhang Yang couldn't help but laugh at himself. Unfortunately, the extras in charge of fighting didn't get paid. The game company took all the benefits!
"Silly Yu, do you think Sweetheart and the others can win?" Han Yingxue asked Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang shook his head and said, "I don't know. In terms of PvP skills, I'm afraid Sword and Fire's team is better, but Fatty's team has the equipment advantage, so it's hard to say!"
"If you ask me, Fatty's team will definitely win!" Wei Yan'er nodded vigorously.
"Let's watch the match!"
Five minutes later, the number of spectators in the arena reached 2.08 million, and the match officially began!
The members of both sides were teleported into the arena at the same time. The air wall blocking them was removed, and the two teams immediately rushed toward each other in different formations.
Both sides displayed their strengths. Magic spells flew everywhere, and arrows flew everywhere. Just as Zhang Yang said, Sword and Fire's members had the advantage in terms of strength, but Fatty Han's team had better equipment. It was hard to tell who would win in a short period of time.
Because of this, this battle was far more interesting than a one-sided match. Both sides fought back and forth. It was not only a competition of strength and equipment, but also their willpower!
Two minutes later, Fatty Han was the first to die, but Sword and Fire's forty-four Thieves were also caught and killed!
Three minutes later, Gujia Luo was killed by a trap set by the other side, but Overlord Blade was also killed.
In a 3v3, both sides' firepower was greatly reduced, and the role of the healer was undoubtedly highlighted. The two sides were locked in a stalemate, unable to kill each other, and unable to kill each other. After a round of back and forth, both sides understood that the key to victory was who could kill the other side's healer first!
As expected of the future Thief Emperor. With a wave of his hand, he used the "Disappear" skill to force his way into Stealth, grabbing the opponent's Paladin who was hiding behind him. He activated the "Dodge" skill, and while the Seven Foot Nine Feet Holy Shield was still on cooldown, he withstood the firepower of Hit Wherever and Chrysanthemum Destruction to kill the opponent!
The opponent's final counterattack had attempted to kill Sweetheart of Dream and turn the situation around. However, Dreamless had used a "Blind Spell" to forcefully control the Sorcerer for eight seconds. The Sorcerer had survived the crisis, and the only thing that welcomed the sword and fire was a merciless defeat!
In the first round, Desert Dust's Team Two narrowly won!
Five minutes later, the second round began.
As soon as the match began, Sweetheart of Dream made a fatal mistake. Her Holy Shield was clearly a beat too slow, allowing the opponent to kill Nonhui! Losing this super thief, Fatty Han and the others were defeated like a landslide, and were quickly defeated.
Another five minutes later, the final match began!
The two sides returned to the rhythm of the first round. In the end, it was still thanks to Nonhui's outstanding performance that they successfully won this most crucial match!
Desert Dust's Team Two defeated Sword and Fire Mercenaries Team One 2: 1, becoming the first to receive one of Baiyu City's four tickets to advance!
Immediately after, Furious Beauties Team One versus Lost Paradise Team One immediately began. Chi Lianhuo's team was able to make it to the quarterfinals partly due to luck. They didn't meet any strong teams, but in the semifinals, they met Furious Beauties, immediately revealing their true colors and happily surrendered with a 0: 2 score.
Next, Lingtian Team One also cleanly swept Bloodkill Alliance Team One, becoming the third ticket to advance to the finals in Shanghai.
In the end, it was Desert Dust's Team One versus Tyrant's Team One!
Both sides were sent into the arena and observed the other side's lineup through the air wall.
Tyrant's five players were: Modest Gentleman (Frost Mage, Level 60), Thousand Miles (Frost Mage, Level 60), Global Piglet (Shield Warrior, Level 60), Ultimate Bad Man (Assassin Thief, Level 60), I'm Not A Healer (Holy Paladin, Level 60).
Zhang Yang's five players were: Zhang Yang 65, Sun Xinyu 63, Han Yingxue 62, Wei Yan'er 62, Daffodil 62. Sun Xinyu had a Heaven grade jewel that gave 50% experience, so her leveling speed was the fastest.
Whether it was in terms of level or equipment, Zhang Yang's team had the advantage. However, Tyrant's team had recruited Thousand Miles, so they were confident that with Thousand Miles's outstanding performance, they would definitely be able to defeat Zhang Yang's team.
"How do we fight?" Although Wei Yan'er looked down on her opponents in terms of strategy, she wouldn't underestimate them in terms of tactics.
Zhang Yang thought for a moment and said, "Ice Block, go catch their Thief. It's fine if he doesn't reveal himself, but if he does, we'll kill him! We'll attack their Mage first. We'll attack whoever's at the front and force their 'Ice Block' out as soon as possible. We'll focus fire on whoever drops their lifesaving skill! "
"Ding! Team Desert Dust versus Team Tyrant, the match will begin in 10 seconds! "
10, 9, 8 … 3, 2, 1!
The air wall disappeared!
Zhang Yang, as the spearhead, rushed out first. The other side did the same, using Global Piglet to absorb the firepower. The others were about seven or eight meters behind.
30 meters, 20 meters. The two sides were getting closer and closer. There were still 11 meters left!
Zhang Yang suddenly stopped. The big white bear behind him suddenly rushed to the front, and he followed behind!
10 meters. This was the furthest range of Charge!
Global Piglet hesitated for a moment. Should he charge at the big, white bear? Charge was also a CC skill. If he wasted it on a pet …
But just as he was hesitating, the big, white bear used a Savage Charge and charged over. Global Piglet was stunned for a second. Zhang Yang didn't use Charge on him. Instead, he charged at Thousand Times. The big, white bear didn't attack Global Piglet either. Instead, it immediately changed directions and charged at Modest Gentleman.
Wei Yan'er and Narcissus Bloom didn't attack Global Piglet either. Instead, they locked onto Thousand Heights.
Fighters had high damage resistance and high health. If the team focused fire on them, they could just use Shield Wall to survive! And generally speaking, Tanks didn't do much damage and weren't a threat. They weren't worth being the first target!
But Fighters couldn't be ignored. Not only did they have high damage resistance, they also had "Sacrifice" and "Sacrifice" to reduce damage to their teammates. They also had "Oscillating Wave" and "Thunderous Bash", which were crowd control skills. "Destructive Strike" could also reduce healing. So, even though Fighters didn't have high damage, they would be a frequent target in future team battles!
The other side clearly didn't set their first target on Zhang Yang. Thousand Heights locked onto Wei Yan'er as his first target and began to cast Ice Dragon!
Charge!
Zhang Yang rammed his head into Thousand Heights and activated Blood Rage at the same time. But before he could crash into his opponent, Thousand Heights had already activated a Blink spell. He leaped 10 meters to the left and continued to cast Ice Dragon on Wei Yan'er!
Thousand Rising Stranger's strength was indeed extraordinary. The landing point of his Flash Spell was coincidentally 30 meters away from Wei Yan'er, which was the furthest range of the Ice Dragon Spell. He could definitely use the Ice Dragon Spell before Wei Yan'er launched her Charge!
Counter Spell!
Narcissus Bloom raised his hand and interrupted the spell Thousand Heights had just cast. At the same time, he activated Heart of the Flame. A [Flame Impact] smashed onto Thousand Heights' head, causing a damage of "-2612". Then, he continued to cast Flame Burst.
Thousand Miles also cast a Counter, interrupting Daffodil Bloom's casting. Because he was under the effect of Counter, his Ice Magic had a three second cooldown, so he could only try to escape from Zhang Yang's close-quarters combat.
Global Piglet had already woken up. He immediately used Charge toward Wei Yan'er. After knocking the little girl unconscious, he immediately stomped his feet and used Thunder Strike. The little girl's body immediately had a speed reduction effect.
Three seconds later, Thousand Heights' Counter Spell had ended. He immediately used Ice Ring to freeze Zhang Yang, who was chasing him. Then, he started to cast Ice Dragon on Wei Yan'er again!
Warrior's Rage!
Zhang Yang instantly dispelled his Frozen status and chased after Thousand Shang Mo.
Shift!
-5820! Destructive Strike. Critical Hit.
-180! Normal attack.
Zhang Yang swung his attack twice, but a damage number jumped up on Global Piglet's body! This was because Global Piglet had used the Sacrifice skill on Thousand Heights in time, transferring all the damage that should have been taken by Thousand Heights to him!
"Switch fire to that Hypocrite!" Zhang Yang immediately said.
-5412!
Modest Gentleman endured the harassment of the large, white bear. An Ice Dragon that could have been cast in two seconds was delayed for three seconds before it was cast. A decent amount of damage jumped up on Wei Yan'er's body.
Thousand Heights also started to cast Ice Dragon again. His target was also Wei Yan'er. Global Piglet was still hanging on Wei Yan'er's body, slashing at her non-stop.
Zhang Yang also used the Sacrifice skill on Wei Yan'er and rushed straight at Modest Gentleman.
The Overlords immediately switched targets and locked onto Daffodil Blossom as their target.
-1832!
Zhang Yang swung his axe. A damage number immediately floated up above Modest Gentleman's head!
Shua! Wei Yan'er finally Charged over. She swung her big broad axe at Modest Gentleman.
Flash!
Modest Gentleman's reaction was not slow. Wei Yan'er had just swung her axe, and she had already jumped a distance of ten meters away!
Zhang Yang chased two steps forward and used Oscillating Wave. Immediately, a damage number of "-830" floated up above Modest Gentleman's body. At the same time, Modest Gentleman was stunned for four seconds!
At that moment, Global Piglet raised his hand. A Selfless Bulwark immediately enveloped Modest Gentleman within it!
The Overlords' small party was clearly trained in teamwork. Once the Selfless Bulwark was cast, the others immediately rushed into the area of the shield and started attacking Daffodil Blossom!
As for Sun Xinyu and Exquisite Bad Man, they were still stealthily playing hide-and-seek!
"Attack Global Piglet!" Zhang Yang said in the small party channel. He also cast a Selfless Bulwark, which almost overlapped with the opponent's Selfless Bulwark.
Due to the existence of the Selfless Bulwark, the damage output of both parties had no choice but to change. They could only target the tanks of both parties. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
