Star Calendar: December 31, 512, the end of the year.
Outside Haicheng Stadium, a bus slowly stopped, with the school badge of Xinghai University printed on the bus.
In the last row of the car seat, Lu Li leaned his head on the window and silently looked at the stadium outside the window that was getting bigger and bigger. He kept spinning the carving knife in his hand, going around and around.
For students participating in the regional trials, Xinghai University, which plays its home game in Haicheng, always provides chartered transportation.
As a candidate for the card-making creative competition, Lu Li naturally took the bus and followed the members of the training team to the competition site.
"Are you... okay with the competition?"
In the row in front of him, Lin Miaohan turned around and asked with concern, "In this situation, I always feel that you will be under a lot of pressure."
In the past week, the "plagiarism" scandal on StarNet has not subsided at all, and even seems to be getting worse. The comment section and private messages on Lu Li's neck are full of malice. As long as Lu Li connects to StarNet, he can see people discussing him.
This puts a lot of pressure on anyone.
"I'm sure there's no problem." Lu Li said with a relaxed expression, "You all should play the game well."
"It's just a regional selection competition. What's there to be nervous about? It's much simpler than the school competition."
Before Xiao Lin could speak, Senior Qiu sitting aside spoke first.
As the competition approached, she held the Star Card Game Console and controlled Meow Leo to run forward, but unfortunately, Meow Leo died heroically not long after because of Qiu Mingxue's operating error.
The number of deaths in the upper right corner increases by one.
"Oops, dead again." Qiu Mingxue sighed, shook the game console in her hand and said, "I even think the difficulty of the regional trials is not as high as that of Meow Leo."
"Wouldn't it be enough for Meow Leo to pass the level if you have some hands?" Lu Li joked with a smile, "Would you like me to show you on the spot?"
"you!"
Before Qiu Mingxue could say the second word, Lin Miaohan immediately cast a spell to interrupt and comforted: "Lu Li, just play your part normally. I believe you can do it."
"Yes, yes, you can use star cards to make such a good game. You will definitely have no problem winning this creative competition." Senior Sister Qiu took advantage of the situation and immediately changed her words: "Speaking of today's competition, are you What kind of game are you going to make? Can you give me some spoilers? For example, try it out in advance or something."
Lu Li shook his head and said, "What we have to do today is not a game."
"Ahem, let me say a few words before the game."
Suddenly, a lazy voice sounded from the front seat of the bus.
The contestants who were chatting immediately shut up, and Qiu Mingxue also immediately turned off the Star Card game machine and sat down obediently, just like the teacher caught him playing with his mobile phone during self-study in the evening.
The contrast between the front and the back made Lu Li burst into laughter.
Instructor Xia's power is so terrifying.
In the front row of the bus, Xia Youran was like a piece of dog skin plaster, glued to the seat and unwilling to move.
He used his star power as a trumpet and said lazily: "Same as in previous years, we must win all the twelve places in the school competition. If you miss one, you will bear the consequences."
The regional selection competition of the Eastern Federation Star Card Competition, any type of competition is divided into four divisions - East, North, South and Midwest.
The regional selection competition for the college competition will ultimately select 32 players from each division, a total of 128 players, leading to the federal main competition stage.
At the same time, in order to prevent the quotas from being monopolized by a certain school and the emergence of one dominant school, the Star Card Association has also clearly stipulated the competition: the maximum quota for each school is 12.
This is why Xia Youran only asked for 12 places.
——After all, some top students get 100 points in the exam because the test paper only has 100 points.
Although the heater was on in the car, Lu Li clearly saw that Qiu Mingxue's body shook unconsciously when Xia Youran said the words "You bear the consequences", and he was very scared.
So what did the lowly guest do to these training team players?
While Lu Li was still thinking about it, Xia Youran spoke again: "Ke Yibin, take the team down and go to the competition venue to warm up."
"yes."
The young man sitting in the second row stood up, reluctantly took out a Xinghai Academy flag from the storage card, and walked out.
Lu Li had the impression that this young man carrying the flag was the captain of this training team.
Seeing the captain starting to organize things, Xia Youran adjusted the backrest of her seat and put her feet arrogantly on the armrest in front of her. Then he took out the eye mask and earplugs from the storage card and lay down leisurely.
All the contestants stood up one after another and followed the captain's footsteps and walked off the bus.
"Then let's go first and cheer for the game."
Lin Miaohan and Qiu Mingxue also stood up and waved goodbye to Lu Li.
"Well, come on for the game."
Lu Li nodded and said goodbye to the two girls.
The competition venues for the battle competition and the card-making competition are not at the same place, so from now on, he will be separated from the main force and act alone.
Sitting in the car and looking at the retreating team, Lu Li was in a daze.
"Aren't you going to report to the competition venue?" Instructor Xia asked as he lay down to take a nap.
"go immediately."
Lu Li stood up.
When he walked to the car door, Xia Youran suddenly said: "Don't be too nervous, your card making skills are quite good."
"Are you comforting me?" Lu Li stopped and asked with a smile.
He didn't spend much time with Xia Youran. He only visited a few times to inquire about the development direction of the card-controlling method.
But Lu Li knew that Shi Ke seemed heartless and his teaching methods were Spartan, but in fact he cared about his students very much.
"Go away, you should lose the game immediately, and then your reputation will be ruined. Don't mention me as your teacher then." Xia Youran flew up and kicked out a wind blade, blowing towards Lu Li with a "whoosh".
Lu Li laughed "haha", dodged the attack easily, and got out of the car: "I'm leaving."
...
Although it was daytime at this time, the outside of Haicheng Stadium was already bustling with people, and a long queue had formed early.
In order to allow the citizens of the Eastern Federation to better enjoy the competition, Star Card Association officials have specially staggered the schedule of the four major competition regions and held the competition in the order of the east, south, mid-west, and north.
At the same time, people in the four major regions will also have a week-long holiday when the trials are held in their regions.
Of course, the venue with a large number of people queuing up is a battle match.
The card-making competition venue that Lu Li was going to was located in the auditorium one thousand meters east of the stadium.
But the scene at the entrance of the auditorium was in sharp contrast to the grand scene outside the stadium.
Standing in front of the sparse team, Lu Li smiled and shook his head.
It was also a regional selection competition, so the difference in attention was a bit too much.
