It was supposed to be a proper competition between the seven academies of cultivation, but the atmosphere had suddenly changed because of the participation of Luoshen Cultivation Academy's team.
Lü Xiaoyu and Cao Qingci were expressionless, while Chen Zu An and Cheng Qiuqiao didn't look embarrassed at all. They even waved enthusiastically at the audience around them.
The spectators in the arena were all from Luoshen Cultivation Academy. After all, this was the home ground of the Academy of Cultivation. At first, everyone was wondering if they should learn from soccer teams and loudly support their own team to disturb their opponents' mood. However, the entire arena was silent now, and no one knew what to say …
"They can't be serious, right?" Someone mumbled softly, "Legend has it that Lord Lü Wang values money as much as his life, but isn't it a little too much to advertise in such an occasion …"
No one could tell what exactly it was, but was it really appropriate to advertise in such a serious occasion?
"It must be Lord Lü Wang's idea. Look at how expressionless Lü Xiaoyu and Cao Qingci are. They must be against Lord Lü Wang's idea."
News of Luoshen Cultivation Academy's team advertising quickly spread on the Academy of Cultivation forum. The entire forum was in an uproar at the time. It must be said that Lord Lü Wang's intentions were really hard to fathom.
Lü Shu was all smiles as he watched the income records kept popping up in the backstage. Although the other academies wouldn't have too many negative emotions toward him because of this, and they might even ignore it as a show of interest, Lü Shu estimated that every single one of the ten thousand students from Luoshen Cultivation Academy would be able to help him advance …
Even if each of them only gave him a few dozen points, that would still be hundreds of thousands of yuan in income.
Lü Shu's ambition for the Academy of Cultivation Tournament wasn't about winning the championship, but making money was the most important thing. He was just short of writing the words "get out of poverty and get rich" on his face.
However, on second thought, he still reminded everyone to be more attentive in the tournament. Now that he thought about it, although the students from the other academies weren't present, if Lü Xiaoyu's team could eliminate a team, then Lü Xiaoyu would definitely receive negative emotions from the opposing academies.
If Lü Xiaoyu received negative emotions, wouldn't that be the same as Lü Shu receiving negative emotions? Progressing together …
Based on this goal, Lv Shu arranged for Lu Xiaoyu to be the first to fight since he wanted to gain negative emotion points through her. Otherwise, what if Cao Qingci did not give him any negative emotion points after defeating his opponent?
Not only that, Lü Shu also instructed Lü Xiaoyu to eliminate the other team decisively. He had to crush the other team in order to make them feel despair.
However, he didn't just that. Lü Xiaoyu didn't be.
…
The students below the stage looked at Lü Shu and the others quietly. Forget it, Lü Shu and the others were fighting for the glory of Luoshen Cultivation Academy. As long as they could win this competition, it wouldn't matter even if they had to advertise.
Now, everyone was slowly accepting the fact that the species research major was a school bully. Therefore, everyone thought that since they were all from the same academy, it did not matter who won.
Previously, because Chen Zu'an had successfully advanced to B-rank, the voting for the strongest contestant on the forum had become a joke because there was not a single person from Luoshen Cultivation Academy on the list.
Everyone thought that Hero Luo would have nothing to do with this Academy Tournament, but in the end, she became the boss.
Reality had proven that the school's ranking list was not reliable …
At this time, the other academies on the forum did not care whether or not Lü Shu and the others advertised. The other participating teams did not care either. The people from the Southwest Academy of Cultivators exchanged glances. Captain Lin Yixin said calmly, "As long as King Lu doesn't participate, they can advertise however they want. Our trump card can only be used when blood is shed."
Over the past few days, everyone had come up with many strategies to deal with the three B-rank contestants on the opposing team. The competition format was to take turns. Whoever lost would be disqualified, while the champion of the opposing team would continue to wait for the opponent's challenge. This format was somewhat similar to a game called King of Fighters.
Previously, there was also a team competition format. At that time, it was stipulated that after the individual competition, five of the twenty participating teams would be selected to face off against each other. However, after the Academy Tournament of Cultivators was cancelled and restored, this format had never been used again.
No one complained about whether it was fair or not. After knowing the strength of Luoshen Cultivation Academy, everyone felt that the cancellation of the 5v5 team competition was to protect everyone …
The opening ceremony passed like a farce. Next up was the grouping. The original competition format was relatively complicated. Tengra's Earth Net required each team to fight against six other teams, and then the two teams in the finals would be decided by the score of each team.
Later on, everyone considered that this was a battle in real life, and injuries were bound to occur during the battle. If a team had to fight against six other teams of the same level consecutively, everyone would basically be crippled after the battle.
Therefore, the final format was to have two teams face off against each other. The winner would advance, and one team would have a bye.
Although Zhong Yutang usually hid from Lü Shu, he had to fight for the welfare of his team at this time. Zhong Yutang looked at the other team leaders and said, "Hero Luo's team has fewer people, so let's have a bye in the first round. What do you guys think?"
Lü Shu was amused when he heard this. Although this old fellow Zhong Yutang was a little stubborn and old-fashioned, and almost everything he did was based on the big picture, he was not at all careless when it came to protecting the interests of his academy.
It was precisely this character of Zhong Yutang that made him the chief butler of Yuzhou. However, Lü Shu preferred Zhong Yutang's slightly selfish attitude. Everyone was complicated. For example, Feng Yeming, who loved games as much as his life, would also give up games for the sake of the organization. Another example was the carefree Li Yixiao, who would also nervously write speeches.
This was human nature, and it was precisely because of this contradiction that they were so cute.
However, when Zhong Yutang's suggestion was mercilessly refuted by everyone, Lü Shu looked at Zhong Yutang and argued with everyone, "Hero Luo only has four people. Why can't we have a bye?"
Of course, it was still decided by drawing lots in the end. After all, the individual strength of the Luoshen Cultivation Academy was a little too strong.
Lü Shu glanced at the results of the draw. The first match was between Hero Luo and the Southwest Academy of Cultivators, and the Northwest Academy of Cultivators against the Luzhou Academy of Cultivators. Previously, everyone had said that the Northwest and Luzhou were the strongest, but in the end, these two teams had directly collided.
However, to be honest, the team leaders of both teams breathed a sigh of relief at the same time … As long as they weren't up against Hero Luo.
