According to the draw before the game, the 12 players who advanced to the knockout round were divided into two teams, half of which were players from the South District and the other half were players from the North District.
By coincidence, both Lu Li and Liu Yichen were assigned to the North District team.
The two of them came out of the player preparation room and followed the team across the entire arena to the preparation area in the north.
The auditorium surrounding the arena was packed with people and was filled with darkness.
At this time, not only the talent scouts who had come to watch the game with purpose were sitting on it, but also the junior students who had just finished class, and the idle star card masters who were active in Xinghai Town and had nothing to do after dinner. They all came to the competition site.
Although this trial is only a duel between third-level Star Card Masters, and is far less exciting than the Star Card Competition, which is dominated by high-level Star Card Masters, this is the Star Sea after all, and it is the most powerful Star Card Master Academy in the entire Eastern Federation.
Level 3 star card masters who can reach the forefront of this school can be dubbed "top".
These knockout matches can definitely be regarded as the ones that everyone is looking forward to!
At this moment, Liu Yichen took half a step back and walked beside Lu Li. He asked curiously: "With so many people watching the game, don't you feel nothing?"
Along the way, the bustling audience gave the players high respect, they cheered, they whistled and applauded.
The loud noise kept vibrating the eardrums, all of which stimulated Liu Yichen's nerves and made him extremely excited.
But Lu Li, on the other hand, seemed very calm when facing such a big scene, with a level of composure that a young man should not have.
"It's okay." Lu Li smiled slightly.
"You guy, you are obviously just a freshman, how can you be so calm?" Liu Yichen thought about it and said, "That's right, when you made cards in the regional competition of the Star Card Competition, the scene was even bigger than it is now. ..."
Lu Li didn't pay much attention to Classmate Liu's sudden thought.
It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no feeling of excitement before such a scene.
It's just that Lu Li was a little more mature mentally in his two lives and didn't show it too obviously.
The noise was in his ears, but there was no noise at all. Lu Li looked at the crowded auditorium, and then at Lu Qianxing, who was already taking his seat at the preparation table in the south area, and an inexplicable fighting spirit suddenly emerged in his heart.
...
Everyone followed the leading teacher and walked to the preparation area on the north side of the stadium.
"In the first game of the knockout round, Liu Yichen from the North District and Qiu Zijian from the South District, please prepare to play."
As soon as Lu Li sat down, Xia Youran, the little broadcaster, started working, which fully demonstrated his desire to get off work.
"I'll go first."
Liu Yichen didn't sit down at all. He patted his cheeks hard with both palms, making a crisp sound, and then took continuous deep breaths.
Liu Yichen was obviously very nervous, and the two words were written directly on his face.
It's no wonder that the player he is about to face is Qiu Zijian, whose strength is second only to Lu Qianxing and other seed players, and much higher than Liu Yichen.
Lu Li didn't say much, and simply encouraged, "Come on."
"Come on! Come on!" Liu Yichen responded, not knowing whether he was cheering for Lu Li or himself.
There was no suspense in this duel, and there was no upset that everyone was expecting. Liu Yichen was defeated without any surprise.
After he and Qiu Zijian received treatment in the arena, they followed the teacher back to the player preparation room from the south side of the arena, but did not come back to chat with Lu Li.
The second battle...
The third battle...
The situation in the first three games was similar. The strength gap between the two sides was still relatively large, and there was basically no suspense.
The battle process was unremarkable, and the audience's response was neither cold nor enthusiastic. When the contestants decided the winner, the audience only gave polite applause, mixed with a small number of cheers and cheers.
"Knockout round
In the fourth game, Lu Li from the North District and Lu Qianxing from the South District, please prepare to play. "
Maintenance worker Lao Lu had just finished cleaning up the playing field, and Xia Youran couldn't wait to call out the number.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, Lu Li had already picked the star card for this game. He stood up and walked to the arena without hesitation.
To the south of the arena, Lu Qianxing didn't hesitate for a moment. He rubbed his flat head, stood up with a silly smile, and walked forward.
The battle of two continents.
The most eye-catching matchup in the six knockout rounds.
In a world of extraordinary power, the strong will always win more respect.
Seeing that the "right person" of the knockout round has finally come out, the audience cheered like a landslide and tsunami, looking forward to the upcoming peak battle between the two seeded players.
The two teenagers were bathed in the noise and walking on the soft lawn.
It was getting late, and the lighting cards in the arena were rising slowly, like spotlights turned on for the two protagonists to take the stage.
"Please choose the initial position for both players."
Xia Youran's voice came from the radio.
Lu Qianxing took a step and stood directly in the center of the circle, which was the most aggressive position. His intention was obvious, to get close to the opponent immediately and activate his best hand-to-hand combat mode.
Lu Li, on the other hand, chose to stand at the outermost edge of the circle.
In this battle, what Lu Li needed to do was to avoid close combat as much as possible and use the long-range attack advantage of the Bright Spear Blade to fight with Lu Qianxing.
"Both players, please prepare..."
The electronic screen refreshed at this moment, showing the names of both players and their public decks.
Lu Li: [Bright Gun Blade] [Light Explosion Sword] [Ice Mirror]
Lu Qianxing: [Earth Armor] [Active Cells] [Armor Repair]
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"start!"
"Peng!"
As the countdown ended, Lu Qianxing's fists collided with each other, making a dull sound.
The rich earth attribute star power swept out and enveloped his body instantly.
Thick star power was floating in the night sky, and Lu Qianxing had already put on the most defensive [Earth Armor].
"boom!"
Lu Qianxing kicked the ground with his right foot, lifting up a piece of grass leather with his front foot, and rushed forward like a bull.
"So fast!"
Lu Li was shocked when he saw his opponent's movements.
You must know that the attribute values of [Earth War Armor] are all focused on defense, and there is no strength or agility bonus for the Star Card Master.
Despite this, Lu Qianxing's running speed was still astonishing.
"Qiang!"
The sword roared softly, and the pure white beam of light condensed in Lu Li's hand, turning into a bright gun blade.
Seeing Lu Li holding the Star Blade, the fighting maniac Lu Qianxing was a little excited. He used his legs and jumped up from the ground.
"Come! Fight!"
A deafening roar resounded through the sky, and the fist wrapped in armor broke through the night and struck in front of Lu Li.
