"Dear friends, we are about to begin the semi-finals of the first season of the Dawnlight Cup. Ruling Sword will be fighting against Gale Legion," Jiu Feng announced as both sides took their places. The countdown to the match was about to begin.
The players from both sides had already laid down in their gaming pods. Their faces were calm, as if they were asleep.
No one would have thought that behind this calm scene was a battle to determine who would enter the finals and compete for the championship.
"The information that appeared on the big screen just now is the information of this season's players. I don't know if you've noticed, but the composition of Gale Legion's players isn't any worse than Ruling Sword's. Gaze and Moonlight are about the same. Although Fei Houzi has risen very quickly, he's still not as good as Cloudy Leaf …" Four Seas Dragon began to analyze the lineups of both sides.
"Wendelian isn't any worse than Sanyue Yu. Angry City Dweller, Flowing Wind and Torrent are all strong players. I think we can actually look forward to Gale Legion's annoying performance," Jiu Feng agreed.
In fact, no matter what they thought, they had to say this.
This was the only way to attract everyone's attention. Otherwise, everyone would think that Gale Legion was going to lose, and there wouldn't be much to see in this match.
The match officially began. Ruling Sword's Fei Houzi entered the field. He was also facing a Mage, Cloudy Leaf. The two commentators had just mentioned the two of them. Four Seas Dragon was very sure that Fei Houzi wasn't as good as Cloudy Leaf. If the result of the match didn't match up, then it would really be a bit embarrassing.
Fei Houzi was also standing there with great ambition. He wasn't nervous because he was facing someone who was more famous than him.
He was the Best Newcomer of the Magic Cup and had already established his own position in the professional circle. Not only was he famous, but he had also become a spokesperson for two products in real life. He bought a house and a car, and when he had nothing to do, he would go out and have fun.
Unfortunately, his reputation seemed to be limited to being the Best Newcomer of the Magic Cup.
When it came to the most powerful Mages in the current day, he was regretted by everyone. Fei Houzi wasn't willing to accept this. His goal was to be the number one Mage, not the so-called Best Newcomer.
Without any nonsense, Cloudy Leaf made the first move and Fei Houzi didn't hold back.
One of them was an Ice Mage and the other was a Fire Mage. Fire Mages had higher damage output and had more continuous damage skills, while Ice Mages were more focused on crowd control. Together with Cloudy Leaf's Water Elemental, the two of them wouldn't necessarily lose much damage.
In the beginning, the two of them were evenly matched. However, as the battle progressed, Fei Houzi began to feel anxious.
Perhaps from this moment onwards, Fei Houzi was destined to fail.
Cloudy Leaf won the first match with a good advantage. His opponent was Moonlight, who was at full health. Even if he had two Ice Blocks, he still wouldn't be able to win. Not to mention, he had to save his Ice Block for the team competition.
Needless to say, a special effect like Ice Barrier would definitely have a long cooldown.
In the arena, Ruling Sword had a slight advantage. After all, they had Lu Li and Moonlight, who were both experts in one-on-one fights. Gale Legion only had Gaze. The final score was 5 to 3, so it was obvious that Ruling Sword was leading by two points.
"Have you noticed that Gale Legion's fighting spirit is actually quite good? They're playing quite steadily." Four Seas Dragon was very keen and could always find some highlights of the game.
"Especially Torrent. He almost crushed Lu Li when he was on half health. If you look at it from another perspective, once Torrent has the same level and equipment as Lu Li, would it be possible for him to beat Lu Li in a one-on-one fight?" Jiu Feng praised Torrent.
Perhaps only the people in Gale Legion knew that the reason why Torrent was able to beat Lu Li was entirely because of their encouragement before the battle.
After the arena, the most eye-catching team competition was finally about to begin.
The current competition system was divided into two rounds. The individual rounds were worth 5 points and the team rounds were worth 6 points. The total score was 11 points, with the team rounds taking up the majority of the points. Although winning the team rounds didn't necessarily mean that they would win, if they lost the team rounds, it would undoubtedly be much more difficult to win.
"Dammit, why is it this map?" Jiu Feng had already lost her composure after the map was shown.
Like many people, she thought that Ruling Sword would choose a simple map like the big round table for their home game. She didn't expect it to be a complex map like the Gobi Desert.
The Gobi Desert!
The Gobi Desert was different from a desert. A desert was dominated by sand, with no gravel and a small number of plants. However, the surface of the Gobi Desert was dominated by gravel, with no sand or soil, and basically no plants.
As a game map, the terrain of the Gobi Desert was even more complex. There were weathered rock cliffs everywhere.
"Tsk tsk, this is probably the rarest of the maps," Four Seas Dragon said with a sigh. He quickly realized that Peerless City had become Ruling Sword's sparring partner, but he didn't even mention it while sitting on the commentary stage.
In his opinion, it was somewhat unbelievable that Peerless City had become Ruling Sword's sparring partner.
Allies weren't all trustworthy. Most of the so-called allies were people who would stab each other in the back. There was no need for Peerless City to waste time with Ruling Sword. Besides, their real ally, Drizzle Court, hadn't been eliminated yet. No one knew if they would face Ruling Sword in the championship.
On the other hand, Gale Legion didn't show much surprise.
Wendelian let out a long sigh of relief. After suspecting that Ruling Sword had a sparring partner, she took her teammates to focus on a few more difficult maps. They had also trained on the Gobi Desert many times, so it was completely within their range of acceptance.
The terrain of the Gobi Desert was a basin type. It was high at both ends and low in the middle. The steepest part was even a cliff.
A normal person would lose at least half of their HP when they fell from above. As such, this map didn't have much HP from the start. However, this situation almost never happened. Some professions had ways to reduce the damage from falling from high places, and Priests were the best. Priests who had learned Levitation could directly buff their teammates and float down one by one.
The terrain was complex, so tactics were very important. After many times of training, everyone had figured out a lot of tactics.
Lu Li would usually scout not far ahead. When he noticed the opponent's formation, he would immediately arrange for the people behind him to respond. As for Gale Legion, they didn't have an outstanding Thief, so they could only passively defend.
