Today, Fang Qi’s shop was very noisy. While the cultivators wanted to see spiritual spells more powerful than Sword 23, the three-day registration was ing to an end.
Tomorrow was the last day of preparation, and the petition would begin the day after tomorrow. The petition schedule was almost done.
About 80 players registered for the individual petition of Diablo, and the registration had slowed down; eventually, the total number of participants reached about 100.
As for the petition for Counter Strike, there were about 40 teams. There were quite a few teams like the Royal Team, where they hadn’t played with guns before and had begun cramming knowledge about them after registration. It was a large number. With more than 40 teams, the number of Counter Strike players was now over 200 since there were more players who didn’t enter the petition.
With so many participants, it was impossible for them to pete with livestream and mentaries; they needed a good plan.
Each participant would pete randomly with 20 different participants for the Diablo petition, and each team in the Counter Strike petition would pete randomly with 15 different teams. Each win would get them one point, and the first 16 places would enter the next round. The people with the same number of points would be ranked according to the overall performance.
Then, the next round would begin.
After the last day of preparation, the masters all gathered in the Origins Internet Cafe on the petition day!
People like Nalan Hongwu and An Huwei who entered the individual petition of Diablo came to the shop very early!
All the participants had their names listed on the big screen.
“How e there are so many sorcerers and sorceresses?” With a bowl of instant noodles in his hands, Song Qingfeng stared at the big screen and found that among the 100 or so participants, more than half were sorcerers and sorceresses.
It was well-known that sorcerers and sorceresses had a very disgusting skill – Teleport. Skills such as Shiver Armor and Energy Shield were hard to deal with as well.
They were very tough to handle for players who played close-range bat characters such as assassins and barbarians.
Song Qingfeng’s face turned dark.
Under the lead of Fang Qi, the number of paladins was second to that of the sorcerers and sorceresses.
After them were classes such as druids, assassins, barbarians, and etc.
Meanwhile, Nalan Mingxue was also looking at the teams on the big screen with a grim expression and making plans in her head.
She still had time since the Counter Strike petition would only start the next day.
Su Tianji glanced at the big screen. Behind her, Fenghua, Yuexin, and two artifact masters of Liuyun Daoist Palace were also looking at the screen.
However, they were being scolded by Su Tianji. “What are you looking at? e and train with me!”
Captain Su was anxious! They had spent two days studying Wind and Cloud, and they still needed a lot of practice!
Tomorrow was the big day. If her Liuyun Team couldn’t enter the top 16, she would be disgraced!
At this moment, Nalan Hongwu and An Huwei went to the counter eagerly. “Kid, when does it begin?”
Fang Qi looked at the time and told them that it would begin at 9 AM. There was still about one hour.
When all of them finished their breakfast, the participants in the Diablo petition were led to the second floor which was set aside as the petition room.
As the referee, Fang Qi stayed in the petition room. At the same time, Jiang Xiaoyue sat on a big couch in front of the big screen.
Today, even Mu Donglai, the guy who seemed busier than the Emperor, also came to watch.
Royal Princess Ji Yu and her team planned to train later, so she sat on the couch and glanced around. “Gongzi Xiao, you’re here to watch the petition?”
[TL Note: Gongzi is the title used by young men with noble or affluent background.]
“Of course!” Xiao Yulv said proudly, “According to my observations in the shop, I’ve analyzed and came up with the list of the most promising candidates for each of the petition. Royal Princess, do you want one copy of it?”
Ji Yu’s face turned dark. “I didn’t know that you were in this business.”
“Just a hobby! A hobby!” Xiao Yulv waved his hand calmly. “But I can ensure you that even the shop owner doesn’t know them as well as I do!”
“Tell us about it!” While sipping her Coke, Nalan Mingxue asked with interest, “What’s your analysis?”
“As for the most promising candidate for the Diablo petition, I’m sure that you all know that Senior Nalan is No. 1. However, I’ve noticed some low-profiled players who have the potential to get into the top eight.”
Xiao Yulv waved his folding fan and said with a chuckle, “Even Castellan An and Senior Nalan might lose to them if they are not careful!”
“Are they really this strong?” The Second Prince clicked his tongue.
“Well… You can just watch. For example, the sorcerer named Bai Lang on the screen.” While he talked, there were eight players in bat. In one of the battles, there was a sorcerer who mained cold spells with the ID of Bai Lang, and he was close to level 40.
“This guy is an old player, and perhaps you’ve met him before,” Xiao Yulv said, “The sorcerers and sorceresses are all very strong!”
They watched the screen and saw that Bai Lang’s opponent was a level 30 paladin.
When the paladin dashed up, Bai Lang was gone with Teleport, and a blizzard hit the spot.
Xiao Yulv waved his arms and explained to the people around him, “See? This is the strength of a sorcerer who mains cold spells. He can freeze his rival and keep his distance from the paladin with Teleport…”
“Ugh…” Nalan Mingxue pointed at the screen. “Gongzi Xiao, that paladin seems to be winning…”
“Bai Lang is winning?” Xiao Yulv said confidently, “It’s about right… What did you say?! Who’s winning?!”
Xiao Yulv turned to the big screen and saw that Bai Lang seemed to make a mistake while he drank mana potion. During this time, that paladin took the opportunity to knock him out with the shield and almost emptied his HP!
How could the paladin do this?!
Confused, Xiao Yulv looked at the big screen and saw the Frozen Orb and Blizzard were not doing much damage to this paladin.
To the contrary, this paladin slowly depleted Bai Lang’s HP gradually with Holy Freeze!
“He alternated Holy Freeze and Resist Cold with perfect timing! Besides, he timed his attacks well, and I believe that he is a master in the real world!” Nalan Mingxue sipped Coke and said calmly, “I must mark this paladin named Fu Jianghe and tell the others to be careful with him…”
Xiao Yulv: “…”
