On the electronic screen hanging high in the field, the information changes.
The screen was divided into two parts, and the names and titles of the students in the first battle were written on the top of both sides.
Qiu Mingxue and Li Yao are both fourth-level card masters.
Below, 10 blank cards are displayed in a ladder-like manner. From top to bottom, they are the player's star cards from level 4 to level 1, with one row for each level.
"This seems to be the standard format of the Star Card Competition." Lu Li said while looking at the big screen.
In the previous competition process, in order to save time, the players from both sides started fighting as soon as they came on stage. There was no such battle at all.
"Yes, it is a semi-open star card competition system." Geng Xiaowen nodded, "Both sides will disclose a fourth-level star card, a third-level star card, a second-level star card, and two first-level star cards. These five star cards are called public The deck, and the five hidden star cards are called the countermeasure deck.”
As mentioned briefly before, in the Star Card Competition, the public deck cannot be changed throughout the entire schedule, while the countermeasure deck is changed every game and is used to target enemy players.
As he spoke, patterns and text began to appear on the blank cards on the screen.
The public deck emphasizes "self-contained system", so generally speaking, it will have the same attributes.
Therefore, the five star cards revealed by Qiu Mingxue were all blue, while Li Yao's side was red like a flame.
In fact, the restrained relationship between water and fire is rather mysterious.
Water itself restrains fire, but its branch, ice, is restrained by fire.
However, if you think about it with your feet, you will know that the countermeasure decks of these two players cannot be all of a single fire or ice attribute.
Qiu Mingxue, for example, would definitely hide a few water attribute star cards to restrain Li Yao.
Li Yao, on the other hand, might have predicted Qiu Mingxue's prediction and hid several earth attribute star cards in the deck that could restrain the water attribute.
It is precisely because of this special competition system that various thousand-layer games and old six players appear in the Star Card Competition every year, which amazes the audience.
This kind of "full of unknowns and surprises" makes the Star Card Competition have particularly high ratings and continues to flourish year after year.
After both sides announced the five star cards, the game did not start immediately.
Qiu Mingxue and Li Yao stood on both sides of the duel field, making final adjustments.
——That is to say, load the Yin people (crossed out) and the star cards of countermeasures into the sea of consciousness space.
If it is in the preparation stage of the Star Card Competition, the commentators on the rostrum will briefly comment on the public decks of both sides for the audience, and predict the countermeasure decks brought by both sides to restrain the other side.
Even when watching the live broadcast on the computer, viewers can use the mouse to click on the player's public card group to view detailed star card introduction.
But everyone has seen how bad the man at the radio station is, and he doesn't bother to explain anything to the audience.
What he hopes most is that the three battles can be decided with one card, and then he can get off work and leave.
After about ten minutes, Qiu Mingxue, who was standing in the north of the field, took the lead in raising his right hand to the referee to indicate that he was ready.
Li Yao from the south also raised his right hand almost in no particular order.
The referee standing in the center of the field nodded to both sides.
"Star card overload."
Brother Zhanlan's voice came from the radio again.
Star card overload is a way for the card master to use star cards. It can use all star cards at the same time and put the cards collectively into a five-minute cooling state.
But the star card used in this way will not produce any effect.
This kind of useless method of use basically only exists in the preparation stage of a fair battle to prevent someone from accumulating energy first and unexpectedly starting a high-level star card.
"Enter."
After the decks controlled by both parties entered the cooldown, a lazy voice came from the broadcast again.
The two players who were originally standing at both ends of the field walked forward.
Both sides were wearing training uniforms distributed by Xinghai Academy. The loose trouser legs and hems swayed gently in the wind as the players moved.
Li Yao is very tall, a full head taller than Qiu Mingxue.
As for Senior Qiu herself, Lu Li had seen her before, and she was not inferior to Lin Miaohan in terms of height.
In other words, Li Yao's height is most likely over two meters.
It has to be said that with the nourishment of star power, the enhancement of the human body is very intuitive.
In the center of a field the size of a football field, there is an oval with a diameter of 40 meters, divided by a white line that runs through the east and west sides.
The two semicircles are the preparation areas for the players.
Players from both sides can choose the starting position in the preparation area according to their own preferences and fighting style.
For example, melee players will definitely prefer a shorter starting distance, while long-range players will do the opposite.
"The old rule is, when facing the north, the back hand is used, and when the back is facing the south, the back hand is used."
As soon as the man on the radio finished speaking, the referee threw a coin from the air and pressed it lightly on the back of his hand.
The camera connected to the big screen also gave a close-up of the coin.
The number facing up is the front.
"Contestant from the south, be the first to choose the starting position." The referee raised his right hand, which was facing Li Yao.
Both of them are in the same grade and have been teammates in the training team. Of course they know each other's fighting style very well.
Li Yao, a classmate who was over two meters tall, nodded and strode to the center of the circular area without hesitation.
It can be seen from his powerful appearance that Li Yao is a card master who likes close combat, and this is indeed the case.
The center of the circle is the most common position for melee players to take the lead. Here, no matter how the opponent distances themselves, they can only distance themselves by 20 meters at most.
And Qiu Mingxue did not hesitate. She tied up her hair on the back of her head as she walked and stood tall and graceful at the far end of the preparation area.
It can be seen from the position that this battle is between melee and long range.
"Countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,"
"start."
The voice announcing the start of the battle was not exciting at all, it was just a formality.
But for the two players on the field, this "start" was like a starting gun, and both sides had different reactions at the first moment.
Li Yao strode forward, the flames of the star card in his hand flowed, and in an instant it turned into a seven-foot sword, carrying the flame tail and rushing forward.
This is the third-level star card he revealed, and it is also the resident card in the deck.
[Pyrotechnic Great Sword]
Type: Star Blade Card
Level: third level
Attack: 35
Durability: 10
Effect description: 1. Fire enchantment, attacks using the Pyroblast Sword are all fire attribute attacks; 2. Explosion, each slash of the Pyroblast Sword will cause a small-scale explosion effect.
The length of this big sword is so big that it even exceeds Li Yao's height.
He dragged the giant blade behind him and strode forward, leaving behind a trail of charred black.
