Chapter 959
This year's sophomores should not be underestimated.
But no one thought they could go too far.
…
The afternoon sun was warm, and the open-air duel hall was painted with a layer of brilliant golden color - it really turned golden yellow.
Just like the opening ceremony of the "Silver Cup", the college coated the open-air duel hall with a layer of golden color, making the entire duel hall suddenly become majestic and noble.
After 1:30, all the students of the entire college poured into the duel hall.
The "Golden Cup" has no requirements for the seats of the internal audience, and students can freely choose their seats to watch.
In this way, the students of the four branches were clearly divided into four parts.
Dak was lucky to grab a seat in the first row, and his classmates from the second-year nobles' college were around him.
Diana and Rose sat on his left in turn.
The two were not nervous at all because of the opening of the "Golden Cup".
The high-frequency duels and dungeon explorations did hone their minds.
Dak and Doron on his right whispered to each other, waiting for the opening ceremony.
Soon...
The audience seats in the ring belt were filled with people.
And the host, Judy, who changed into a golden dress, also stepped onto the raised platform a little earlier.
Today, she was even more luxurious and charming.
As the elegant melody played, she raised her hand, let the elf familiar in a princess dress fall into her palm, gently flicked the familiar's forehead, and then let it fly.
Almost at the same time, the projections of audiences from various regions appeared in the audience seats outside the duel hall.
In the area of the duel branch of the royal capital.
Claire, who returned to the royal capital, really appeared in the first row with Alvette.
Beside Alvette, there were "Silver Wolf Knight" Camilla and Viscountess Flotti.
The three mothers' group has become more and more familiar with each other in recent days.
And the three families have become closer and closer because of this connection.
Claire even invited Viscountess Fruti to join the business network of the "National Duel Club". Like the Eugenie Chamber of Commerce, she was responsible for the external sales of "simulated duel" related products.
The Fruti family had already been far away from the power center of the royal capital. Finding one or two trustworthy agents to develop business was also an effort to maintain the family business, so they quickly agreed.
Not long after, Ms. Camilla couldn't stand the loneliness and got involved.
Their small circle became a group of people with common interests.
Now the four people put aside various matters and came to the Duel Hall again. In addition to wanting to take a look at their own treasures at the opening ceremony of the "Golden Cup", they also came together to investigate the response to the first round of version updates of "simulated duel".
After two o'clock, the eldest princess Eliza came late and sat on the other side of Claire.
"I'm not late, am I?" she whispered.
Claire said, "It's just the beginning."
Eliza was relieved.
She missed the opening ceremony of the "Silver Cup" last month due to her busy work, and this time she just had time to come and watch.
There was another reason. She found that her brother was going in and out of the Duel Branch more and more frequently.
Although she didn't know why her brother took time out of his busy schedule to watch the duel, since he did it, she had to follow him. Maybe she could detect something mysterious?
…
Grand Prince Charles also came to the scene today.
And beside him, there was the Chief Archbishop who had not been seen for a long time!
The appearance of Archbishop Caleb Norris seemed to imply that the affairs of the Holy Church had been going smoothly so far.
The "Holy Judgment" operation was effective.
…
"Hello, ladies and gentlemen, I am Judy. It is an honor to be the host of this "Golden Cup"!"
With Judy's formal self-introduction, the opening ceremony of the "Golden Cup" finally began.
The audience listened to her voice, and the atmosphere was gradually driven.
As the representative of "Mock Duel", Eve also took the stage afterwards to introduce the development and updates of "Mock Duel" to the audience, and publicly displayed some newly added card packs and limited edition Halloween-themed cards.
With the cooperation of the academy, the display effect was very good.
After her promotion was over, Senior Judy returned to the stage and announced loudly: "This opening ceremony is over. Next will be the long-awaited first day of the "Golden Cup"!"
"During the short break before the first day of the game, each branch will randomly draw ten lucky audiences. The audiences who are drawn can go to the counter with their tickets to receive a limited edition Halloween-themed card."
"Don't worry even if you don't win the prize. As long as you buy Halloween eggs, you will have a chance to open a limited edition card!"
"In addition, there are limited sales of Halloween-themed duel disks."
"Exclusive voice of star players, unique theme venue!"
"Buy it and you will earn it!"
...
Chapter 642 "Please follow up" Dark Dimon is a dragon (10k)
When the audiences of various branches were attracted by the lottery, some students who signed up for the "Golden Cup" received the day's schedule sent by the Duel Club.
As usual, in order to ensure that the opening ceremony is exciting enough, the Duel Club will intentionally adjust the schedule and bring up the schedule of some star players to today.
And all competitions will be held on the duel stage in the center of the venue for the audience to watch.
Under such circumstances, as the brightest new star among the new duelists, Dak's probability of winning the lottery on the spot is actually very high.
He was also ready to compete early.
Sure enough, when the sound of sorting cards started to sound around him, his card bag also vibrated.
"As expected of Dak!" Doron's eyes showed envy, but his sorting card did not shake.
Being able to receive schedule reminders at this time can be said to be proof that both popularity and strength have been recognized.
"Hey, I didn't receive it either." Diana looked at the sorting card and said slightly frustrated.
Rose grabbed her hand and shook it: "The second-year contestants should rarely receive today's schedule reminder, right? But if you think about it carefully, most of today's opponents are also the elite among the senior students. We do It’s hard to have a great match against them.”
Diana pouted and said, "I'm not afraid of losing."
Rose smiled and said: "Calm down, let's lose again tomorrow, okay?"
Diana's eyes widened and she rushed over with a "ouch".
"Haha, don't make trouble." Rose quickly blocked Diana's tickling dragon claw hand.
The two played around for a while, and then saw that Dak was already getting ready to get up.
Diana stopped and asked curiously: "Dak, is it the first round again?"
"Although... it's indeed the first round." Dak looked at the sorting card and was slightly surprised.
The Gold Cup is supposed to be a senior-focused event.
Since the sixth-grade students are busy with graduation practice and other related subjects, it is basically the fifth-grade contestants who dominate the "Gold Cup".
Among the fifth graders, there is a very popular star player like "Silver Dragon Girl".
Therefore, it seems that she is the most reasonable choice to open the show.
But the Duel Club did not choose Pandora-senpai as the duelist for the first game.
Moreover, Dak's opponent in this game is not a senior in the fourth or fifth grade, but only a third grader!
"It's really the first round! Then who is your opponent?" Diana asked immediately.
Dak showed the sorting card and said: "Elsie Kevin, the senior of the third-year noble house."
"Senior Kevin?" Deanna rolled her eyes and recalled, "Isn't he the opponent you encountered in the debut match of the rookie competition?"
Dak said with some nostalgia: "Indeed, at that time, I officially stepped onto the duel stage for the first time, and it was great that my opponent could be senior Elsie Kevin."
In that freshman competition, senior Elsie Kevin showed the top level of strength in the second grade. The "Mechanical Dragon" hatched from the "Eggshell Arms" also left a deep impression on him. impression.
If it hadn't been for his successful "fusion" to summon the "Basdi Beast", the final winner might have been Elsie Kevin!
As his opponent in the debut match, Elsie Kevin undoubtedly allowed him to enjoy the great pleasure of dueling.
After that, Dak rarely encountered such a hearty duel.
Unexpectedly, his first opponent in this "Golden Cup" would be Elsie Kevin!
"Is it a deliberate arrangement?"
Duck couldn't help but think.
The current head of the Duel Club is Senior Sister Inia Knight, but Senior Sister Inia Knight does not look like the kind of girl who is more emotional than rational.
Maybe it’s because people can’t be judged by their appearance?
…
Duck cheered up slightly.
Senior Elsie Kevin is also a student in the "Alchemy Class".
Although we are not familiar with each other yet, we have communicated with each other.
I wonder to what extent his strength will improve in another duel nine months later?
"No, the anticipation is coming!"
Dak clapped his hands, closed the sorting card in his palm, and said, "I'll go first."
Diana and others encouraged and cheered him on.
…
Dak left his seat and hurried to the entrance of the player tunnel.
At this time, the entire schedule for today has been projected on the stage.
It starts from 3pm to 6pm, and then from 7pm to 9pm, divided into afternoon and evening sessions.
Depending on the speed of each duel, the game time will be advanced or postponed accordingly.
So everyone's schedule only has the number of games and reference time.
Dak's game today was not just one.
I don’t know why, but he always has the illusion that Senior Sister Inia Knight really treats him as a fat sheep...
From the three games at the opening ceremony of the "Silver Cup" to the two games at the opening ceremony of the "Gold Cup", it is almost impossible to find anyone with similar treatment to him.
"Forget it about the Silver Cup. Can you not catch a second grader in the Gold Cup?"
Dak really wanted to find a time to question that senior!
…
But unlike him, those who came to watch the duel specifically for him naturally felt that the more games with him, the better.
"What's going on? Are there only two games today?"
Some people are even very dissatisfied!
Arvite pinched the fat cat in her arms, looking unhappy.
She also thought that the opening ceremony of the "Golden Cup" could be the same as the opening ceremony of the "Silver Cup", and she could watch Dak's three duels in a row.
Then her trip was worthwhile!
Lady Camilla and Viscountess Flotti beside her were even more disappointed and asked, "Are there no schedules for Diana and Rose?"
