Chapter 422 Opening of the Contest
It has to be said that Bartlett is a very kind-looking person, and his speech is very contagious, and the entire audience in the Arena of Light is already excited.
This time, the East-West Continent College Competition was held in the Bright Arena of Haolixi City. The Bright Arena was Haolixi City, and it was also the largest competition venue in the entire Divine Blessing Alliance, which could accommodate up to 200,000 spectators at the same time.
Even though today was the first day of the competition, the entire Bright Arena was already full of people.
Even the corner seats have been sold by scalpers from five silver coins to more than five gold coins, a full tenfold increase. But even so, it is not easy to buy.
"Now we invite our greatest, most selfless, and most powerful His Majesty the Pope to speak for everyone!" Bartlett suddenly announced loudly after speaking for half an hour.
After hearing Bartlett's words, all the audience were taken aback for a moment, and then they saw a gorgeously dressed man with a golden crown descending from the sky. It was none other than the Pope.
The audience immediately stood up from their seats, then knelt down on their knees and shouted: "Your Majesty the Pope, longevity is boundless!"
Those who were not members of the God Blessing Alliance did not kneel on the ground, but clenched their fists with their left hands, placed them on their right shoulders, and bent over to express their respect and blessings.
"The most loyal people of the God of Light! May the God of Light be with you!" The pope opened his arms, and soft light radiated from his body.
The light enveloped the audience, and everyone who was covered by the light felt much more comfortable physically and mentally.
Delileca stared at this scene dumbfounded. The pope released such a large-scale magic without any help, but casually released it. This shocked him unceasingly, and he had to reevaluate the Pope's strength.
Auxiliary skills are relatively easier to control, but covering such a large area and so many people at once is enough to see how terrifying the pope's spiritual power and control over magic elements are.
"The God of Light has endowed us with sunshine, rain, light, and everything we have. We are all blessed and sheltered by the God of Light, so we must be in awe and have a devout faith! This East-West Continent College Competition , will be blessed by the God of Light, and I hope all the participating students can achieve a good result! Everyone, get up!"
Everyone stood up one after another, and saw that the light on the Pope's body was getting brighter and brighter, but it was not dazzling, it just made people unable to see his appearance clearly. When the light reached its peak, the pope disappeared out of thin air.
Deli Laika vaguely felt a wave of space,
But he is not a space magician after all, so he just vaguely felt it.
Bartlett was obviously no longer surprised by the pope's ignorant style, and directly announced the details and process of the game.
This time, the Eastern and Western Continent Academy Competition, the students are prohibited from using all magic potions during the competition, whether it is attack type, recovery type, or auxiliary type. Sustained recovery drugs, etc.
The types of weapons used by the students are not subject to any restrictions. Whether it is bare-handed or using artifacts, that is the right of the students themselves. During the competition, the Holy See will not provide any weapons to any participating students.
There are nine colleges participating in this competition, four from Carlo Empire, three from God's Blessing Alliance, and two from Twilight Federation.
The colleges of the Carlo Empire are Carlo Royal Academy, Yucai Academy, Chenfeng Academy, and Longwei Academy.
The academies of God Bless Alliance are Guangming Academy, Tiangang Academy, and Wangwang Academy.
The colleges of Twilight Federation are Twilight College and Dark Night College.
The qualifiers draw lots to select opponents, which are divided into individual competitions and team competitions.
There are five individual competitions, one point for winning one, four points for winning one seven-person team competition, and no points deducted for losing. The team with the highest total points wins.
In other words, even if you only win one individual competition, you can still win the final victory if you win the team competition. If all five individual competitions are won, then there is no need to compete in the team competition, they can still win.
After knowing the scoring rules, teams with strong personal strength now want to win five consecutive individual competitions. This will not only save the team competition, but also hide the strength of the team.
Teams with slightly inferior individual strengths began to think about how to win one or two games, drag the game into the team competition, and then win the final victory through strong teamwork.
The competition starts with an individual competition and then a team competition.
After the individual competition personnel are selected, they cannot be changed. The order of personnel's appearance is also drawn up before the start of the competition, announced on the spot and cannot be changed.
The list of players for the team competition is drawn up after the end of the individual competition. The number of players in the team competition should not exceed seven, and there is no problem with less than seven people. Even if only one person participates, it is allowed.
Since today was the first day, the Holy See did not allow all the colleges to participate in the competition, but was only preparing for two competitions.
There were nine teams in total, and each team sent a student representative to draw lots. It was neither Li Zhenbang nor Murong Bing who went up to draw lots on behalf of the Carlo Royal Academy, but Zhang Dayou.
During this period of running-in, everyone has basically determined their positions. Li Zhenbang's special ability is equivalent to the brain of the entire team, Murong Bing is the sharpest knife point in the entire team, and Zhang Dayou is the strongest shield.
Originally everyone recommended Li Zhenbang as the captain. As the brain of the entire team, being the captain is well-deserved.
However, Li Zhenbang declined. After becoming the captain, the responsibility is heavier, but if he wins, he will get more attention in the end. However, Li Zhenbang still likes to make a fortune in silence. Those so-called fame and fortune have no meaning to him, but may become a kind of shackles. He prefers to be a behind-the-scenes pusher.
If Li Zhenbang is not the captain, then Murong Bing is the most qualified, no matter in terms of strength or background, he is definitely qualified. However, Murong Bing is not interested in this new captain. If she becomes the captain, she will feel awkward in her heart, after all, she is not the first choice.
Murong Bing gave up the captain, Liu Yishuang naturally became the most powerful, but she has no interest in this captain.
In the end, the candidates for the captain fell on Haonan and Zhang Dayou. Relatively speaking, Zhang Dayou was naturally more popular. You know, among the ten-member team, including Zhang Dayou, there are a total of six people related to him, more than half of them.
Regarding the candidate for the captain, Haonan finally gave up directly. One is because he doesn't want to make trouble with everyone because of the captain's affairs, and the other is that he knows that even if he votes, he has no advantage.
The most important thing is that the captain may sound like a captain, but in fact it is just a title without any real power. Taking a step back, even if he became the captain, could he easily command Murong Bing or Li Zhenbang? He might as well give him a favor.
In order to show the importance it attaches to the Carlo Royal Academy, the Holy See asked them to draw numbers first. There are a total of nine cards in the lottery box, one of which is promotion without a battle, and the other eight are No. 1 to No. 8.
The team that draws card No. 1 competes with the team that draws Card No. 2, the team that draws Card No. 3 competes with the team that draws Card No. 4, and so on.
Zhang Dayou's luck may have been exhausted when he became the captain, and he did not draw a free promotion card. Not only did he not get a promotion card, but instead he got the No. 2 lottery, which meant that they would have a match today.
What made Zhang Dayou feel depressing was that the one who got the free promotion card was actually a member of Guangming College. What made him even more depressed was that the number one lottery was drawn by a college in the Carlo Empire——Yucai College.
In other words, the first match turned out to be an infighting between the colleges of the Carlo Empire. This would not only eliminate one of the colleges of the Carlo Empire, but might even expose the strength of everyone prematurely. This can be said It's very bad.
The students of Carlo Royal Academy and even many teachers felt a little helpless, but they could only do nothing about it.
The number three card was drawn by the Tiangang Academy that they had contact with before. Although they were humiliated by Master Deli Leka at the time, the strength of their students cannot be denied.
Everyone felt a little relieved that it was not the Academy of the Carlo Empire that got the No. 4 card, but the Dark Night Academy of the Twilight Federation.
The Dark Night Academy is a very strange academy, unlike the Evening Night Academy, it has all kinds of students. The Night Academy is actually an exclusive academy for the night elves, and there are only students of the night elves in the entire academy.
The night elves are completely different from the elves. All the elves are fair-skinned and beautiful, and even men have looks that make women jealous. The skin of the night elves is darker than that of the elves, and they have black textures on their bodies, which are carried at birth.
The warriors of the elves are all excellent archers, and the magicians are good at wood magic, healing and assistance, similar to the emerald dragon Omega.
Warriors of the night elves are better at assassination, sneak attack and poisoning. Magicians are magicians with dark attributes. Dark magic is different from undead magic. Dark magic is very corrosive and has no ability to manipulate corpses and souls. It is also an important reason why the Holy See can allow the night elves to exist.
The night elves are called the family of betrayal by the elves. The elves believe in the goddess of nature. It is said that the night elves were the elves in ancient times, but because they betrayed the goddess of nature, they were cursed and became the current dark night. Elf family.
