A night of silence.
Early the next morning, Zhou Mingyang took Yu Li to join Wangdu's gambling team.
Zhou Mingyang is indeed doing well in the officialdom. Everyone who meets him is very considerate. Even though Yu Li jumped in temporarily, he did not face any difficulties. When everyone heard about Yu Li's achievements in Xilou City, they were even more impressed by his vision and luck. In Yu Li's impression, the civil and military classes in the officialdom had always been at odds with each other, which was common among the Angel Clan in his previous life. It's not that obvious here, and I don't know if it's just superficial or if it's really unique.
After entering the queue, Yu Li was temporarily designated as a candidate, and he had no objection to this. It would be better if he didn't have to go in, as long as he was given the benefits. Soon, the location of the competition was passed down, and Zhou Mingyang and Xuan Qi were also teleported to the capital of Dongcang as team members.
"Dongcang seems to be more prosperous than Western Desert. It seems that the spiritual power and water vapor here are more abundant."
Someone in the team whispered it as soon as they came out of the teleportation array.
"Well, Dongcang is adjacent to the sea in the east. The woods here are lush and the spiritual power and water resources are very rich. Unlike the Western Desert, which borders the desert, there is nothing comparable."
Zhou Mingyang explained a few words, and everyone else followed suit, seeming to be a little envious of the residents of Dongcang Kingdom.
Follow the receptionist to the school military field, where the other three countries have already arrived. The kings of the four kingdoms were sitting high up, looking very harmonious and laughing and talking about interesting things.
"Okay, the people from the West Desert have finally arrived, let the gambling battle officially begin. King of the West Desert, do you want me to give you some time to prepare first?"
"Thank you for your kindness. Let's get started. Why are our warriors from the Western Desert so squeamish?"
"This is what you said. If you lose in a while, I hope you won't complain!"
The King of West Mo knew that King Dongcang didn't like them and regarded them as country bumpkins. Anyway, they didn't have much interaction between the two countries, and they wouldn't be affected by King Dongcang's preferences.
Yu Li stood quietly below with the other team members, scanning the four teams with his peripheral vision. The people of the Dongcang Dynasty seem to be more like foreigners in appearance. When I observed the people of the West Desert Dynasty before, I found that there were very few people who had awakened the third-eye ability of the aliens, and Xilou City didn't meet any of them. Occasionally, there are obvious traces of the three eyes in the Yintang position of children. The older the age, the lighter the traces. None of the people who participated in this gambling fight have the ability to have three eyes. There are only superficial changes in the color of the hair and skin. If we talk about probability, the probability that people from the Western Desert Dynasty will retain alien characteristics is far less than 10%.
The alien characteristics of Nan Yan and Beixuan are more obvious, and they are probably 50-50 equal. The people of the Dongcang Dynasty have a 70% chance of retaining their alien characteristics.
"Haha, this is interesting."
Looking at the obvious gap between the eyebrows in their team, Yu Li was a little curious. There are also three-eyed races in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, and there is more than one kind. For example, the Demon Eye Clan, the Sky Eye Clan, the Three-Eyed Clan... all have third eyes growing in Yintang, but they have completely different abilities. Some can be used as openings to emit powerful rays, some can be used as assistants to predict future good or bad luck, and some are the source of power formed by the alienation of the origin of the clan... There are also some insignificant and weird abilities that are not used to see things anyway. of.
Since he was able to break into the Sword Tomb and finally merged with the people of the Sword World, he probably had abilities related to swords. He did not continue to observe or ask Zhou Mingyang for advice. The answer would be revealed soon, and he was not in a hurry to take a look.
King Dongcang took the lead and said a few words, telling the bets of the four-party gambling competition. The four families all put one hundred places into the lottery as bets, and the first place took away two hundred of them, and the second place took away two hundred. The first took one hundred and fifty, the third only took fifty, and the last received nothing. Got it, the first place wins the fourth place by 100, the second place wins the third place by 50 points.
After each signed a contract document, the formal competition began. As soon as the rules of the competition came out, King Ximo's face turned black with anger. Obviously Dong Cang, Nan Yan, and Bei Xuan had planned this for a long time. The contract had been signed, and he had no choice but to hold his nose and admit it when the three families agreed.
The competition is divided into three stages, individual battle, team battle and wheel battle. Each team sent fourteen people to participate, and those participating in the competition were allowed to compete repeatedly in three stages. In the first stage, three people will fight three games with each of the other three countries. A win will get one point, and a failure will get no points; in the second stage, four five-person teams will fight in a melee, and they will get zero, five, eight, and twelve points in the order of elimination; Three stages of five-person wheel battles, fighting against the three kingdoms respectively. The winning team gets five points, and the losing team gets no points.
It seemed fair on the surface, but Yu Li could see that the other three countries were already prepared. Especially during the team melee stage, targeted training was carried out, unlike a makeshift team like the West Desert Dynasty.
The general leading the team discussed with Zhou Mingyang and others to see who would be sent to play in the first stage.
"I suggest that Yu Li go up. He should be able to get three points. You can make arrangements for the other two by yourself."
Zhou Mingyang is very optimistic about Yu Li, and he can easily face the third-level Xuan Qi. He doesn't think anyone in the Three Kingdoms can surpass him, so he naturally needs to show his value.
"Master Zhou, are you sure this is the case? Isn't it a bit sloppy? We don't understand Yu Li yet."
"I think I still have some say. I have already let you decide the remaining two places. Is my concession not sincere enough?"
"That's...ok."
Although the general who led the team was reluctant, he did not want to break up with Zhou Mingyang. Zhou Mingyang was the staff officer second only to him who led the team. He, two adjutants, and two councilors selected the remaining two contestants.
Yu Li was also a little surprised when he learned that he was the first to play. Since he thinks so highly of him, it's natural not to disappoint Zhou Mingyang. It's okay to score three points.
"For the first match, Dongcang vs. Beixuan, please go to the east arena to prepare; Nanyan vs. West Desert, please go to the west arena to prepare. Although you are not allowed to kill in the competition, please be merciful and do it till the end, so as not to damage the harmony."
Yu Li is naturally not a fool. The implication is that if you can easily win, I will let you go. If you encounter someone with strong combat power, you may even trade your life for injuries to severely injure the opponent. This is clearly leaving room for manipulation in the next two stages, which is really insidious.
Yu Li stood on the stage. Opposite him was a feminine man with an evil look on his face. His third eye had been opened, and the deep pupils seemed to have a trace of sword energy coming out, attacking Yu Li with a hint of oppression.
"A good opponent. He should have reached the sword power stage. Sure enough, the foreign race also has merits. Unfortunately, his ability is a little weaker. If I didn't improve before, I would still have to pay a price even if I win."
The feminine man realized that his power had no effect on Yu Li and knew that it would be difficult to deal with him. He used 70% of his strength and slashed at Yu Li with his sword. Yu Li knew that he thought highly of himself and did not take himself seriously. Naturally, he would not be polite. He swung the three-foot stick in his hand, locked the long sword in his hand, and kicked the feminine man in the chest. The angle was ordinary and not fancy. The man wanted to draw his sword and defend himself, but found that his sword seemed to be stuck in the mire and was kicked on the chest. He fell to the ring in embarrassment like a broken sack.
"Western Desert wins——"
Zhou Mingyang was overjoyed, and he defeated the enemy with one move.
