After quietly greeting Daigo and Hibiscus Chinensis, who were sitting obediently on the sofa, Aoki walked behind Yagyuu Gang and watched the players' battle arrangements on the big screen outside with him.
The top 128 would have an upper limit of three sprites. Unlike the original dozens of arenas that were held at the same time, only two arenas would be opened for the top 128. Moreover, the distance between the arenas was very large, so they would not affect each other.
The spectators who were close to each other could clearly see the competition.
This was a higher exposure rate. For the trainers who had made it here after many obstacles, this was what they yearned for. The feeling of being in the limelight was also what many people pursued. It was the first step to becoming famous.
As long as they won one more match, they would enter the top 64.
Starting from the top 64, they would receive rewards from the alliance and certificates of their ranking in the competition.
The certificate was the key. It would allow them to find a better job in the future. No matter what industry they were in, those who were ranked in such a competition held in five major regions at the same time would play a big role in their future work.
Therefore, after entering the top 128, everyone had to start working hard.
Looking at the flashing heads on the big screen, Aoki quickly found his position. His opponent was not a seeded player.
In a few minutes, all the matches were arranged.
Yagyuu Gang frowned.
Although the top seeded players like Aoki and Daigo did not meet any seeded players from other regions, there were a total of ten people in Feng Yuan, and one of them would meet a seeded player from another region.
As the competition continued, this situation would happen more and more often.
It was not until this time that the real Mystery Competition officially began.
According to the current competition system, the top 128 would only need 64 matches to determine the top 64. The competition would be held in two arenas at the same time, which meant that it would take a total of 32 matches. It would be over in two days at most.
After a day of rest, the top 64 would be held.
The list of players had been confirmed. Yagyuu Gang and Aoki sat down on the sofa together. When it was their turn, it would be shown on the TV in the private room.
As for the person who would meet the seeded players from other regions, Aoki wasn't familiar with him to begin with, so it wasn't something he needed to worry about.
After Aoki sat down on the sofa, Daigo, Hibiscus Chinensis, and Miceli all sat down.
Now, the four of them had vaguely formed a small group in this private room. Even if other people wanted to join, they couldn't, because the four of them were the strongest contestants in this private room.
The three of them sat around and looked at Aoki with a hint of resentment in their eyes.
The suburban manor in Yuanzhi City was reserved by Aoki, but Aoki only stayed there for a few days before leaving the three of them there.
It wasn't a problem if Aoki left, but the problem was that Daigo and the others didn't know how to cook.
It would be troublesome to ask the hotel to deliver food. If they hired someone, many of their sprite training couldn't be seen by others, which was also very troublesome.
Aoki felt the gazes of the three of them and was a little embarrassed. He promised that he wouldn't walk out casually in the future. The competition schedule should be more and more intensive in the future, and he wouldn't have time to go out and train.
After receiving Greenwood's guarantee, the flames of resentment in the three of them were barely extinguished.
Not long after, the competition began. According to the "random" opponents and the order of the competition arranged by the computer, some people's matches were worth watching, but Aoki and the others didn't care much about others' matches.
Among the few of them, Daigo was the first to go. His opponent wasn't strong, and Daigo defeated him by sending out an Armored Bird.
Then it was Miceli's turn. His opponent's strength was average, but Miceli seemed to be training his sprites, so he swapped his sprites midway and let the Gem Starfish and the Heart Fish participate in the battle.
The third was Aoki's turn.
According to the opponent's information, the opponent was a player from the Carlos region.
He grew up in the Carlos region, then collected eight emblems, broke through many battles, and rushed to the top 128. It had to be said that this person had some strength.
But his luck wasn't very good. He met Aoki in the battle to advance to the top 64.
Although Aoki's reputation wasn't as well-known as Daigo and Sirona, after five rounds of battle, everyone knew what Aoki's identity was and what kind of strength he had.
This was a person who was as famous as Daigo in the Fengyuan region.
Aoki's opponent also knew that he might not be able to break through this round, but there was still a strong fighting spirit on his face.
This person was able to reach this stage not because he wanted to be famous or to obtain prizes, but because he liked to fight. He liked to fight and had an inexplicable interest in fighting.
Aoki, who originally wanted to send out the Swamp Monster, suddenly changed his mind.
Since he had met such an interesting person, the equally combative Draconic Scorpion should be more suitable for him. It could also be regarded as a kind of respect for him.
Although the Draconic Scorpion fighting against the opponent might end up being crushed in the end, when the opponent saw the Draconic Scorpion's fighting spirit, the fighting spirit on his face became stronger. At the same time, he thanked Aoki for his respect.
This was a one-sided game, and there was no suspense in the outcome. The powerful Draconic Scorpion was not only recognized by the audience, but also by the opponent.
Because of the training on this mysterious island, the Draconic Scorpion's strength had once again improved greatly.
Now that he had reached level 53, he was worthy of being called a Heavenly King Sprite.
After a week of training, the speed of his leveling slowed down, but the speed of his strength did not.
This was because Aoki put more effort into training his sprites' skills and energy control. In terms of fighting, he also tried to get more sprites to participate in training their combat abilities.
After all, the Swamp Monster and the Frog King were forced to level up to a certain extent. Aoki hoped that they could stabilize their foundations as soon as possible to eliminate the aftereffects of their rapid increase in strength. Therefore, they had a lot of battles.
In short, before this training, Aoki had some doubts about whether he could enter the top 8. Now, as long as he didn't meet those monsters, Aoki had great confidence that he could enter the top 8.
Even if the chip was still dormant, Aoki's confidence would not decrease in the slightest.
After Aoki's match, it was Hibiscus Chinensis's turn. It was just that Hibiscus Chinensis's match was arranged in the evening. When her match ended, the day's schedule was almost over.
The four of them returned to the manor in the suburbs of Destiny City. Aoki spent a lot of effort to cook a big meal for them, which could be considered as making up for the "grievances" they had suffered during this period.
They ate until they were full. In the end, they sat at the table for half an hour and chatted for a while before returning to their respective rooms.
