Chapter 233: One force reduces ten benefits (middle)
Compared with yesterday’s draw, there was obviously a bit more chilling atmosphere in Zhongtian Square today. Teams from various countries arrived one by one, including the four major seeds. Including the team, it's the same. These teams range from eight to more than ten people, but only our Feili team, led by Captain Zhou Weiqing, only has four people.
When Zhou Weiqing led Shangguan Bing'er, Crow Crow, and Ye Paopao to the lounge where Team Feili was, he couldn't help but attract the attention of other teams, even the four major seed teams.
Even the four major seed teams have five regular players and three substitutes, a total of eight players. In everyone's eyes, the Feili team is too arrogant. The presence of only four players is undoubtedly announcing to others that they only need four players to win today's game.
The one with the ugliest expression is undoubtedly Team Feili’s opponent today, Team Miou from the Kingdom of Miou. At this time, they were all glaring at Team Feili.
The thickness of our captain Zhou's skin played a key role at this time. No matter how others looked at it, he looked like it had nothing to do with me, and he came to the lounge and sat down openly.
There was no obstruction to the side of the lounge facing the competition stage. Seeing him sitting there with such force, everyone felt that the arrogance of the Feili team had been raised to another level.
Not long after, all twenty-four teams have arrived. From a distance, you can see that the rostrum is also full of people. Zhou Weiqing just glanced at the rostrum and immediately withdrew his gaze. It's not a good thing to have too high a perception. Just one look at it made him break out in cold sweat from behind. He couldn't judge the specific strength of those on the rostrum, but he was certain that there were at least twenty people on there whose cultivation level exceeded Ming Wu.
What is this concept? In other words, there are more than 20 people on the rostrum who are powerful at the level of Jiuzhu Sect Tianzong and above! That is a powerful existence that is enough to shock everyone.
At this time, on the rostrum, a middle-aged man in his forties stood up and walked slowly to the front of the rostrum. This man was dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe, with a gold crown on his head, inlaid with colorful gems. The jade belt is inlaid with eighteen pieces of snow-white jade. His appearance cannot be said to be very handsome, but it gives people a simple feeling. The essence in the eyes is restrained, with a bit of radiance. It's hard to see how old he really is. He was also one of the people Zhou Weiqing felt was stronger than Ming Wu before.
"Hello, young heroes from the twenty-four countries, I am Shangguan Tianxing, the emperor of the Zhongtian Empire. Welcome to the Zhongtian Empire to participate in this triennial Dzi Bead Competition." His voice was very Gentle, but like mercury pouring down the ground, it spreads pervasively so that everyone can hear it clearly.
Everyone in the lounge around the competition stage hurriedly walked out and bowed in the direction of the rostrum, "I have met your Majesty." Among them, the eight participating members of the Zhongtian Team from the Zhongtian Empire were more It was to kneel down on one knee.
The hundreds of thousands of people watching around Zhongtian Square fell to their knees on the ground at the same time, shouting: "Long live, long live, long live."
How powerful are hundreds of thousands of people shouting at the same time? Shocked, the huge sound rose into the sky, and I am afraid it could be heard even on Tianzhu Island thousands of meters away. This is the power of the emperor of a great country. Even if Shangguan Tianxing did not show any majesty, he became the sole focus and center of the audience with hundreds of thousands of his subjects.
Zhou Weiqing also bowed slightly, but was a little surprised to find that Shangguan Bing'er beside him seemed to be in a trance. "Bing'er, what's wrong with you?"
Shangguan Bing'er shook his head gently and said: "It's nothing, I just think his voice sounds very comfortable."
At this time, Shangguan Tianxing on the rostrum had spoken again, "Dzi Beads" The rules of the competition are as always. Today is the first round. I hope that young talents from all over the world can show their talents and strive for good results. The teams that finally enter the top four will have the opportunity to go to Tianzhu Island for the final battle. At the same time, they will also Get the reward from Tianzhu Island. The competition stage in front of you is your stage. That's all I have to say."
"I am here." An old man stepped forward from the side. Guan Tianxing saluted respectfully.
Shangguan Tianxing said: "Long Yin, you will be the chief referee of this Dzi Bead Competition and supervise all competitions. The Rubbing Palace under your command will preside over the refereeing."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Shangguan Tianxing glanced at the contestants from the twenty-four countries and hundreds of thousands of his own people below, and said solemnly: "The Dzi Bead Competition has officially begun."
"Long live, long live, long live."
Under the cry of long live again, Shangguan Tianxing returned to the center of the rostrum and sat down, while Shangguan Longyin took his previous position. .
Compared with the gentleness of Shangguan Tianxing, Shangguan Longyin looked extremely majestic, with an expressionless face and sharp eyes that swept across it, like a physical sword.
Ye Paopao whispered: "I have heard of this person. Shangguan Longyin is the master of the Rubbing Palace of the Zhongtian Empire. He is also a high-ranking figure in the Zhongtian Empire. It is said that he was also born in the Piaomiao Palace. Some people say that the Piaomiao Palace itself is composed of members of the royal family of the Zhongtian Empire. Therefore, although the Zhongtian Empire is large, the throne of the Shangguan family is as solid as a rock. Zhou Weiqing was horrified. The masters of the Rubbing Palace in the Feili Empire are all king-level experts, but this one is obviously even more powerful. Moreover, this Shangguan Longyin must not be the number one person in the Zhongtian Empire. There is the Vast Palace above his head. As expected, you don’t know how big the world is without leaving home.
Shangguan Longyin's majestic gaze swept across, causing Zhongtian Square to become quiet. You know, there were hundreds of thousands of people there! If you look carefully, you will definitely be able to find the fanaticism in the eyes of the people watching the battle.
"In the first round, the first game of a group, the Zhongtian Empire team played against the Tianfeng Empire team. The first player from both sides came on stage, and the Rubbing Palace referee came on stage."
Under the spotlight, first of all, a A referee in his forties wearing a beige robe walked up. His robe is decorated with silver threads, and in the middle of his chest, a gorgeous pattern of silver threads forms a large Chinese character.
The Zhongtian Empire team had a lounge next to Zhou Weiqing. A white figure flashed, and a tall young man had already stepped onto the competition stage. The Zhongtian Empire’s team uniform was white, with lines and The referee's robe is somewhat similar, except that he wears a strong suit, and the decorative patterns are golden, and they also converge into a Chinese character on the chest.
The players from the Zhongtian Empire have just appeared on the stage, and someone from the Tianfeng Empire team has already shouted: "We surrender."
The referee confirmed to the Tianfeng Empire: "You all surrender?"
“Yes.”
The Zhongtian Empire team member's expression did not change at all after hearing the opponent admit defeat. He seemed to have expected such a situation. After saluting the referee, he leisurely stepped down from the stage and returned to his team's lounge. .
According to the schedule, the first four games of today's first round will feature the seeded teams from the four groups. Then there are the other teams.
It is not a shame to admit defeat in the preliminaries against a seeded team, but a smart choice. It is almost impossible to defeat the seeded teams. Even if there were plans to compete, it would never be in the preliminaries. It is also the idea of most countries to avoid their sharp edges and retain their strength to face the next opponents and strive for the second place in this group.
Sure enough, in the next three games, the other three seeded teams also won without a fight, easily winning the first round.
Next, it’s the second game of each group. The highlight of this first round is really starting now.
Zhou Weiqing sat in the lounge and watched coldly, watching the competition between the two national teams in the second game of the first group, secretly surprised in his heart. These two teams are both from small countries, but their strength is quite extraordinary. Among the five players in the battle, there are two from both sides with three beads and three with four beads. This is already quite powerful among young Dzi Jewel Masters under the age of thirty. And their fighting skills are also quite good. The fight in the ring was vigorous and powerful. You know, these two teams are just the last ones among all twenty-four teams.
In the end, the game ended with one of the teams narrowly losing 3-2.
When it came to the second game of the second group, Zhou Weiqing did not watch any more, because they were going to play in the second game of the third group.
"Crow, your first game. Bubble, your second game. In the third game, two versus two, Crow and I will play together." As the acting captain, Zhou Weiqing quickly made arrangements.
Although she was not allowed to play, Shangguan Bing'er did not complain at all. She just sat quietly beside Zhou Weiqing. She absolutely supported her man without any reservation.
The second game ended quickly, because one of the teams was the Grifino Empire team, whose national strength was no less than that of the Feili Empire. They showed their strong strength. Two of the four players on the field With four beads and two with five beads, they won easily.
After every major game, the referee on the stage will be replaced. At this time, a new referee came on stage and loudly said: "The second game of the third group, Feili Empire team vs. Miou Kingdom Team, players from both sides take the field for the first game.”
The crow was already impatient to wait, so he strode forward and came to the competition stage without taking the steps. He stomped his right foot heavily on the ground, flew up and landed towards the competition stage.
Zhou Weiqing covered his ears with his hands at the right time, followed by a loud bang that shocked the entire audience.
