Chapter 39 The Magic Games Begins
The days in July and August seem to be extra long.
After parting ways with Ding Yumian, it was already seven o'clock in the evening, but the dusk hanging on the horizon became thicker.
There seemed to be a lot of surprises today. From the Zhilan team group chat, Bai Mo learned the news that Mei Qian had broken through to the intermediate level.
It seems that the 40 million bounty was put to good use by her.
However, if this is the case, Mobi will go to fry fish next semester.
When Bai Mo sat in the September school classroom with his hand, other students had already gone home in the evening.
Together with Zhou Tianyuan, Zhao Qingying and Mei Qian, they listened to class teacher Suning's analysis of other school teams and explanation of the competition system.
He didn’t think he was here to fry fish.
“…Others are not a worry. You only need to pay attention to Mingzhu Affiliated High School and Songjiang Experiment. According to the school’s inquiries, these two schools have mages who can release intermediate magic, and Mingzhu Affiliated In middle school, three of the participating members are all intermediate levels!”
After Suning finished speaking, he glanced at Zhou Tianyuan, "Very good," with a solemn expression and a nervous expression.
Nodding with satisfaction, she moved her eyes to the next student, Zhao Qingying.
Yes, her eyes were full of clouds and her face was foggy. It was obvious that she was interested in her, listened to her words, and paid attention to her words.
Looking down, this is the most outstanding student in their school this year, Mei Qian. As for Bai Mo, he skipped too many classes and was reported.
But after seeing her expression clearly, Suning frowned slightly.
I saw Mei Qian's somewhat soft face as calm as usual, but I noticed a hint of worry between her eyebrows.
Suning nodded with satisfaction, this is right. Moderate tension is conducive to entering a better fighting state.
Her gaze continued down, looking at the main force of the team, Bai Mo.
In an instant, the smile on Suning's face disappeared. The student was also looking at her, with an inquiring, curious, and interesting look on his face.
It’s like I was observing her just now and thought her behavior just now was very interesting and fun!
Suning's face was a little embarrassed, and she coughed twice before continuing:
"Let me explain to you the rules of the competition. There are 136 magic high schools in Magic City participating. The competition system only has three rounds. "
After a pause, seeing the students looking at her, obviously listening carefully, Suning continued:
"The first round of qualifying will be organized by the competition official. Each school's student team must fight against a slave-level demon to qualify for the next round."
"The second round is the regional elimination round. Only by winning the first place in the region can they advance to the next round. round. If only one school in the area enters the second round, it will automatically advance to the next round.”
"Of course, if no school in the area advances, all will be eliminated. This situation is extremely rare."
After that, Suning added, "We have no worthy opponents in Qingyuan District."
Hearing this, Bai Mo and the four others looked calm. This is a matter of course and there is nothing to be happy about.
And Suning's words continued.
"The qualifying competition starts tomorrow at the nearby Plum Blossom Demon Fighting Hall. The regional knockout competition begins on the third day after the qualifying competition ends. There are two games a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. The opponent and the winner are determined by drawing lots. On to the next round.”
"After the first place in each region is determined, the third round of competition will be held on the 15th of this month."
When it comes to the point, Suning's expression also became serious. This competition is related to the school's future funding. Question, I have to act more solemnly.
"The competition adopts the form of random drawing. Just like the regional knockout, the winner advances and the loser is eliminated."
After Suning finished speaking, he looked at the four faces sitting in the audience. With a strange look on his face, he said, "Do you think the competition system is too simple?"
"Yes" Zhao Qingying nodded.
"The competition between a group of top junior and intermediate students doesn't get much attention. This competition is mainly for training. Don't even think about getting the first chance to become famous in the Magic City."
Suning said with a smile: "Except for the referees, teachers and contestants, there will be no other spectators in the competition venue. Do you have any questions?"
"Teacher Su, we don’t need to do this during the competition. Are you in school again?"
Hearing Bai Mo's question, Suning said angrily: "That's all you care about?"
"I just heard that reviewing in the third year of high school is boring. "Teacher Su, don't you really think I am participating in this competition for the rewards?"
"You better be!"
Suning rolled his eyes and answered the question: "During the competition, you still need to attend classes in the classroom during your free time, but if you get the first place, it means Pearl Academy has admitted you, come to class or not."
After saying that, she glanced at the other three people expectantly, "Any questions?"
"No. "Yes, Teacher Su, we have discussed the competition before," Mei Qian said, "I think Bai Mo is right, we just need to keep winning." Suning:.
She was a little helpless, the student was too much. Excellent, she has no sense of accomplishment as a teacher.
The next day, the Plum Blossom Demon Fighting Hall in Qingyuan District.
Under the leadership of Suning, the four of Bai Mo and others had arrived at the waiting hall here early.
The teams from the other eight high schools in Qingyuan District are also here.
The Fighting Demon Pavilion is a place that Bai Mo and Zhou Tianyuan are familiar with, and both have relaxed expressions on their faces.
However, Mei Qian and Zhao Qingying had never been here before, and they looked slightly nervous due to the atmosphere in the waiting room.
Soon, the Fangcao High School team that had just entered to fight the monsters came out. There were five people in their team. Although everyone's faces were a little pale at this time, they all had smiles on their faces.
Apparently, they successfully defeated the demon.
The monsters are randomly selected from the monsters in the Colosseum, so there is no specific way to deal with them.
The Fangcao team didn’t stay long, said hello and left.
However, they gave the other teams a good start, and the originally tense atmosphere in the room relaxed a lot.
Bai Mo and the others are No. 2. He feels that when they come out, the relaxed atmosphere will be more relaxed.
Although strategically, Bai Mo despises all opponents participating in the game, tactically, he still attaches great importance to them.
So facing a mere giant-eyed rat, all four members of Lanzhi High School took the field.
"You guys handle it." Bai Mo said to the three people around him.
"Okay!" Zhao Qingying nodded, and her figure turned into a gust of wind, standing at the front.
"Bait"
Zhou Tianyuan's Water Control has been hung on her body, and next to him, Mei Qian's hand has purple thunder and lightning, look carefully.
Among these wisps of thunder and lightning, there are still traces of cyan.
This thunder is not ordinary thunder!
I have to say that Mei Qian is willing to spend money.
Bai Mo heard that as soon as she broke through, she asked Zhao Qingying to get a thunder spirit seed through the Zhao family's auction.
It is said to be called Qing Lei, which can enhance the sustainability of some thunder magic.
I saw that Zhao Qingying had attracted the hatred of the giant-eyed fishy rat. In a twist, the demon behind her was exposed to Mei Qian's attack range.
"Anger attack!" Mei Qian's body pulsed with arcs of electricity, her hands glowed with purple light, and whips of thunder and lightning struck at the giant-eyed rat.
With just a few snaps of his fingers, manic thunder covered the giant-eyed rat's body.
The battle ended and the four people walked out of the arena.
Congratulations came from all around, but the atmosphere did not become relaxed.
After listening to it, I realized that these people knew the strength of their school.
In short, he made a mistake in judgment and did not see what he wanted. Bai Mo shook his head regretfully.
Together they followed Suning back to school, and it was already past noon.
Suning left as soon as he returned to school. Bai Mo, Zhou Tianyuan and others looked at each other.
"There is a practical training class in the afternoon. I will go out for a walk. Tianyuan, please tell Lao Xu." After Bai Mo finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the school.
"Okay." Zhou Tianyuan nodded.
The Magic College Entrance Examination involves both theory and practice, so their senior year students usually review the theoretical knowledge they learned in the previous two years in the morning and practice practical combat in the afternoon.
Actual combat target?
Most of the time it is a wooden teacher, or a wooden teacher who can fly and move.
Sometimes the practical class teacher Xu Qi will come in person.
So this is a good opportunity for Bai Mo to go out and exercise his mental strength. He doesn't want to try any new snack shop outside the school.
As soon as Bai Mo left, Zhou Tianyuan also left. The three of them will train in the afternoon and have already made an appointment with the teacher.
As for the notification?
Teacher Xu’s eyesight is not very good either (cross out). Teacher Xu understands the righteousness and knows what they are doing.
