Chapter 1190: The Start Of The Tournament

Chapter 1190: The Start Of The Tournament


There was no need to doubt how popular <> was. A huge venue like this could easily fit tens of thousands of people and it was already completely filled.


Fans of each squad held up their banners as they set up their own independent region.


Following the staff members, the squads appeared on stage one after another.


Every time a team appeared on stage, their fans would cheer and chant their names resulting in a fantastic atmosphere.


In such an atmosphere, the Quan Zhen Sect walked out in their ‘Supreme Martial Arts’ outfit together with their Bull 13 flag.


All of a sudden, the loud and noisy venue turned silent. Shortly after, the whole place burst out laughing at them.


“F*ck! What squad is that? What kind of outfit is that? Are they shooting a movie?”


“Who knows? But one look and I can tell they are an amateur team. They are probably worried that they are not strong enough to stand out in the compet.i.tion so they dressed in this manner to make themselves known first. If this is truly the case, they are clearly the true winner here!”


“F*ck! A bunch of hype dogs!”


Upon hearing the hissing sounds from the crowd, w.a.n.g Yu was probably the only one walking with his head held high as he led them out. Everyone else lowered their heads and couldn’t wait to hide their heads in their underwear.


Even Nian Liuyun, who had already entered the scene, couldn’t help but let out cold sweat, “A bunch of idiots! Just what are they doing?!”


After all the squads entered, the host started introducing every team.


Presently, the majority of the teams were the same old professional squads. Spectators willing to spend so much money to watch this compet.i.tion were naturally old and experienced players too. They certainly had a great understanding of these squads, some even much more than the host himself.


Everyone was probably more unfamiliar with the squads representing the 15 districts in the game. Therefore, the host did not forget to mention the glorious achievement of these squads during their introduction.


Squads that were able to stand on this stage, even if they were ordinary squads, were still experts with a certain level of strength in the game.


Even though people didn’t recognise them in real life, the moment their names were mentioned, the spectators would realise that they were slightly more familiar than first thought. Words like ‘So it is them’ will pop out every now and then.


When it was the Quan Zhen Sect’s turn, the host held back his laughter as he said, “A Murder Of Crows is the squad representing Twilight City from the 7th district together with Sanguine Squad and Money Is All Powerful. Their guild is the Quan Zhen Sect!”


Hearing the words of the host, everyone in the venue grew excited.


“Quan Zhen Sect!”


“Oh, sh*t!”


“So it is this bunch of lunatics! No wonder they are dressed like that, they are indeed known for their reputation!”


The host cleared his throat as he pointed at w.a.n.g Yu to introduce him, “Leader of A Murder Of Crows is the legendary number one expert Iron Bull!”


“Wa… So this is Iron Bull!” Everyone made all sorts of comments again.


w.a.n.g Yu’s impressive name was pretty popular among the old players. Moreover, he had just lifted a ban on a G.o.d-grade equipment not too long ago so his popularity was not finished. When everyone finally saw him in real life, they couldn’t help but get emotional.


The host also knew how to do his job well. When he saw what a commotion w.a.n.g Yu caused after his introduction, he went on to ask, “Great G.o.d Iron Bull, rumours are that you are the number one expert of the game! May I ask what is your secret?”


“Secret?” w.a.n.g Yu pondered for a moment before putting on a stance, “Because I know Kung Fu!”


“Ah?” The host was shocked, “What?”


“Kung Fu!” w.a.n.g Yu turned over to let the host see the two big words on his back. After that, he turned back to point at the ‘Supreme Martial Arts’. “Understand?”


This time, everyone on the stage was as dumbfounded as the host.


The host replied with an awkward smile, “Is it the same as what we see on TV? Where a swing of your hand can break a ma.s.sive object?”


“No!” w.a.n.g Yu shook his head, “The most important thing about Kung Fu is finding your balance between every strike. This was once explained by my idol and the great and honourable martial artist Bruce Lee…”


“Will you be able to demonstrate for us to see?” Hearing how w.a.n.g Yu spoke like a lunatic, the host quickly disrupted him and asked.


w.a.n.g Yu smiled, “You will be able to see it later on in the compet.i.tion!”


“Then I shall look forward to your performance…”


After the odd cheers for w.a.n.g Yu, the host walked dazedly towards the next squad.


w.a.n.g Yu turned over to see that the rest of the Quan Zhen Sect were already standing very far away from him. He couldn’t help but ask, “What are you guys doing?”


Quan Zhen Sect: “Who are you? Where am I? Do I know you?”



After the introduction, all the squads returned to their seats and the host went on to thank all the sponsors for making this compet.i.tion possible.


Without wasting any more time, it was back to the compet.i.tion again.


The organisers were still kind-hearted enough not to shamelessly mix the amateur teams with the professional teams.


According to the flow of the tournament, the 15 representatives from each district would first fight among each other and the victorious squad would be crowned champion of the amateur teams. The champion of the amateur teams will then be able to compete with the professional experts.


This seemed much fairer but also meant that it would be far more compet.i.tive.


After all, everyone came into this compet.i.tion in hopes of competing with the professional teams. Now that there would only be one team doing so, the threshold was much higher than expected.


After the introduction of the flow of the tournament, it was time for the draws of the squads.


“Pata!” The lights in the venue dimmed as two light rays descended from the sky onto the seats of the 15 representatives.


“Begin!”


The moment the host gave the command, the two rays of lights would start jumping around the seats of the squads randomly.


“Stop!”


The moment the host gave the command again, the light rays slowed down and eventually landed on the seats of two squads.


n.o.body knew whether they were lucky or unlucky but the Quan Zhen Sect was the first squad to fight.


This time, the host also announced, “The fight will be between A Murder Of Crows from the 7th district, Twilight City as well as from the 10th district, Spiritual Shadows from the City of Shadows. May I invite both squads to enter the stage?”


After the host said that, the staff members brought the two teams of players into the compet.i.tion room.


Within the compet.i.tion room, there were two rows of ma.s.sive cabins meant for the compet.i.tion.


Such cabins were of a much higher quality than just gaming helmets. Of course, a thoughtful company like Soaring Dragon Game Studios would definitely reward those who used such cabins to game with more reputation points and attributes. Naturally, this was something only professional experts or rich experts would use.


The main reason to use this for the actual compet.i.tion was that such gaming cabins would not restrict a player’s ident.i.ty or status in life. In this manner, it ensures the fairness of the game as well as the compet.i.tion.


The Soaring Dragon Game Studios was not that shameless to make things unfair for the truly capable but not affluent individuals.
