Therefore, Xu Luo actually valued these sword cultivators and Dharma cultivators from the Xuantian Realm very highly.
Because these people are powerful and grew up in a chaotic place like Xuantian Realm. Since they were young, they have no lack of combat experience at all. Obviously after coming to the real world, if they are allowed to enter the trial In the land, if you compete with those alien civilizations, you may not be able to weaken others when the time comes.
These people's fighting skills are powerful, but what they lack is that their cultivation is not as good as others.
But if it's just about cultivation, then it won't be a problem at all for the Human Federation. They can spend a lot of resources at any cost to improve their cultivation.
The battle has been going on in full swing, but at this point, Xu Luo actually didn't pay much attention to it.
At this time, Xu Luo had already wandered into the sky, letting his consciousness wander towards the boundless void, looking for various worlds.
In the real world, the battle has been in full swing, and each person has shown strong fighting talents, attracting countless people to gather around them.
Especially for some people who performed well, because of their previous performance, at this time, they have a large number of fans gathered around them and have their own exclusive support group.
Whenever they appear on the stage or fight with others, their support groups will gather together to support them.
At the same time, when they appear on the stage, these support groups will give out a lot of gifts, which will attract a lot of eyeballs to them in the future.
And with the operation of their support groups, these people have a strong reputation. Some people who have just come here don't actually know much about the God Fighter Trials themselves. Therefore, at this time, after seeing these When looking at people's performance, I feel that with the support of so many people, they must be strong and have enough hope to qualify.
Therefore, these passers-by will naturally invest their bets on these people, so that at this time, the strong will become stronger and the weak will become weaker.
But at this time, as long as you show good combat effectiveness on the battlefield, even if you lose, someone will look at you differently.
Just like before, when 1,600 people entered 800, 800 people were directly eliminated. However, among these 800 people, there were a few people who performed well before.
Therefore, in the following period, they were directly spotted by some clubs in the secondary league, and then the two parties signed a contract and signed it.
This is the charm of this platform.
As long as you fight on the field and perform well, even if you lose and do not enter the final competition to win the championship, there will still be people who see this piece of diamond in you and are willing to work on you. .
Because for those who have entered eight hundred and those after eight hundred, the strength gap between the two parties may not be that huge.
Some people just have very bad luck and meet geniuses like Luo Jun and Zhang Xinyan in advance, and then they are eliminated.
Some people were lucky, so they met some weak people, and then defeated them and squeezed in to only 800 people.
If a fight really breaks out at this time, some people who enter the 800th place may not be able to beat some of the outstanding performers who are eliminated after the 800th place.
It’s just that luck is also a kind of strength!
Therefore, there is not always a chance of resurrection at this time, so this time naturally leads to this time. Many people can only be eliminated directly without being willing to do so.
The battle between 800 and 400 was naturally carried out very quickly, and after the 400 people were selected, the group stage naturally began.
The ultimate goal of the group stage is to select the top sixty-four.
Because they are divided into four groups, each group has certain battles every day, so the games are progressing quickly.
Under such circumstances, it is obviously very satisfying for many viewers.
Even if they don't have time to watch the game live all the time, after the game is over, there will be a video of the game, so when the time comes, people like them can naturally watch the video of the game.
And it is precisely because of this that at this time, Hope Star is naturally making a lot of money.
At the beginning, when such a competition was held, many people in the Hope Star just felt that they should respond to the call of the Human Federation. Through this competition, they could select some young people with outstanding strength and talent, and then use them to Just cultivate.
So they were actually prepared to lose money at that time.
It's just that at this time, Hope Star was very financially wealthy, so even if it spent a large sum of money to host such a competition, no one had any objections at the time.
But under Xu Luo's personal control and after making some tricks, it was obvious that at this time, this game became a money-sucking beast.
Just by giving rewards to these players for supporting them, they made a lot of money.
Although it is said that a layer is allocated to the players, the remaining 90% belongs to them personally.
And this is an official event, so there is no such thing as taxes.
Although this selection competition is held by the Hope Star City Hall and Tianwen Club mutually.
But Tianwen Club itself only provides some venues and the like.
They have no advantage in terms of money.
It's just that after selecting the top ten, they can negotiate with these people and add them to their club.
This was exactly the purpose of Tianwen Club at the beginning.
Because from the beginning, no one thought that this competition would gather so much money.
In addition to the rewards from the audience, at this time, for the Star of Hope City Hall, in fact, what they got the most from this game was the videos of these games.
The game videos seem very ordinary, but because many people didn't have that much time to watch all the games before, so they could only choose the players they liked. Watch.
But after watching the games of their favorite players, they naturally want to watch the remaining games at this time.
If you want to watch it, you will naturally have to pay.
For a video of a game, what a person needs to pay to watch it once is just a few credits. It may not seem like much, but if more people watch the game, it is actually not a small number.
In addition to those viewers who did not watch in time, in fact at this time, the players participating in the competition also attached great importance to these videos.
Because at this time, they need to know themselves and their enemies, so they are naturally very concerned about the matches of the opponents they may encounter.
So at this time, these game videos were selling very hotly.
There are a lot of game videos produced every day. After a whole game, there are a lot of game videos.
Under such circumstances, just selling these videos has already made them a lot of money.
At this time, the God Warrior Selection Tournament has become a national competition in the entire human federation.
Therefore, at this time, naturally many group companies came to the door one after another, waving money, just wanting to let their companies or their respective products show their faces in this competition. For this reason, they Don't hesitate to spend a lot of money.
Even if your own products are just showing their faces in this competition.
But for them, when so many people pay attention to this competition, this appearance may make their products very popular.
At that time, the prices of their stocks will naturally increase dramatically.
If they carry out cooperative propaganda during this process, they will gain huge benefits by then. In comparison, the small price paid at this time is nothing at all.
But when facing these people, Xu Luo rejected them all.
From the beginning, he had made up his mind that he would not let any advertisers join the first Saint Seiya Selection Tournament.
He wants to ensure the purity of this game, and at the same time, there is another reason, and that is to wait for the price.
He wants to use this success to tell others that the next time he holds an event, let them prepare advertising fees in advance. The competition for advertising will be very fierce by then.
Facing Xu Luo's rejection, although these people were very disappointed, at this time no one dared to offend Xu Luo. No matter how dissatisfied or regretful they were, they could only shake their heads. Sighing and leaving.
Some people saw Xu Luo rejecting these people directly, so they were very puzzled. They felt that at this time, when these people came to give money waving banknotes, Xu Luo directly turned them away, wasn't it? A wise decision.
At this time, some people were even more moved when they saw how popular the God Fighter Trial Competition was. They wondered whether they would hold a similar competition after Xu Luo's side was over, and change the name to attract more people. A lot of people come in.
If we apply the same model and it becomes popular, just the advertising fees paid by these advertisers will make them rich.
They don't care at all about whether this show will have any potential in the future, they just want to take advantage of this opportunity to make a lot of money for themselves.
Time passed by, and the group stage was naturally in full swing.
Some people were still conserving their strength at first, but as they got later, the opponents they encountered naturally became more and more powerful.
In the beginning, some people could still rely on luck, so they were lucky enough to advance.
But later on, the competition became extremely fierce. When the opponents they faced became stronger and stronger, if their personal strength was not strong enough, they would have been eliminated long ago.
Therefore, as the people they met became more and more powerful, those who originally thought about preserving their strength naturally had no choice but to expose their true strength.
Under such circumstances, it is natural for those audiences to enjoy watching it.
Battle of arms, battle of gods themselves!
They were dazzled by the battles one after another.
Although the realms of these people are actually not very high, since these people all have certain combat experience, it is natural that many ordinary people who have never seen any combat in the past will see it this time. It's a boom.
Although there were various God Fighter competitions in the past, there were naturally not that many regular God Fighter competitions.
So the back and forth is just a few clubs fighting with each other.
At the same time, during the battles between these clubs, the faces that appeared were just familiar ones.
So at this time, for many people, they have long been tired of seeing those people fighting in groups.
In contrast, this time the God Fighter Trials reflected more of personal strength, so it was naturally very comfortable to watch at this time.
The further you go, the stronger the people you encounter will become, and some people will no longer be able to hide their power, so the battles between dragons and tigers will naturally make people talk about it.
At the same time, because the game is very exciting, people who have a certain amount of spare money will naturally invest a certain amount of money in their favorite players. Maybe some people don’t think so much at all, they just see it. After the exciting game, they naturally rewarded them with some gifts.
But at this time, some people also spend a lot of money when they see the player they support performing very well, thinking that when the player they like will directly win the championship, I am also proud of myself.
Because he has contributed to his championship, this sense of accomplishment is something that no one can experience.
Game after game passed, and soon it was time for the top sixty-four.
By the time we reached the top sixty-four, there was no further grouping.
After all, the top sixty-four are just thirty-two battles. At this point, in order to maximize the benefits, these thirty-two pairs of matches are completed every few days.
After all, the God Warrior Selection Competition itself is going to be long-lasting.
It has aroused heated discussion among the people, so naturally it is not going to end in a short time.
For example, other clubs do not have so many battles because they have to face a lot of competitions, such as spring and summer games.
At the same time, in addition to these, there are also cup competitions such as Silver Dragon Cup, Golden Dragon Cup, and Shenlong Cup.
They also have to fight with other alien civilizations in the interstellar world.
Because there are so many games, it is certainly impossible to hold one game in one year.
In comparison, there are not so many worries at this time in the God Warrior Trials.
They just want to carry out bombings for a long time so that many citizens in the Human Federation will know of their existence at this time, so as to strengthen their influence.
At the same time, Xu Luo naturally wanted to use this opportunity to make this important competition, the God Fighter Trials, deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
When the time comes when I hold the second session, I will be able to attract a large number of people to pay attention at once.
At this time, after the top sixty-four were released, in the real world, the huge game viewing venue was filled with darkness in all directions, and it was filled with spectators who came to watch the game.
And on the huge platform in the center of the arena, at this time, figures were naturally standing there.
These sixty-four people are naturally ranked in no particular order at this time.
But at this time, although they are ranked in no particular order, everyone's popularity is different.
Some attract attention because they are powerful.
Some people attract attention because of their handsome appearance or beauty.
Others attract attention because fighting is more interesting.
Such people vary.
At this time, I only saw a few rows of people standing opposite the host.
These people stood in a square formation, and at this time they were marching in an eight-by-eight formation.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome everyone to the scene to watch the game of our God Warriors. At the same time, I would like to thank all the viewers who have been supporting our game on the Internet. Thank you for your support."
Miao Miao, an old familiar face that everyone is familiar with and the host of this God Fighter competition, said her opening remarks in her beautiful voice.
"I believe that these people standing behind me are already very familiar to everyone, but there may be some new viewers who don't know their names at this time, so in this challenge of the selection competition, I will Tell them one by one and let everyone know the information about them!"
"Okay, let's not talk too much. Now let's introduce Luo Jun, who is ranked number one on our popularity list and is popular with thousands of girls!"
As Miao Miao finished speaking, she only saw the light shining on Luo Jun, while the others disappeared at this time, so that at this time, only Luo Jun's figure remained in everyone's eyes.
As a boy who has always performed very well, was born in a wealthy family, and has an outstanding personal appearance, Luo Jun has firmly occupied the first place in the popularity list since his debut.
In the following time, his strength has not been compromised in the slightest, and he has defeated his opponents with very straightforward methods.
So at this time, Luo Jun naturally attracted the attention of countless people.
So much so that at this time, he had a lot of people supporting him.
So when Luo Jun became the only one in everyone's sight, he saw countless people cheering for him, whether in the real world or in the virtual viewing room.
From the first day, the number of gifts Luo Jun received was a very huge number.
Especially in the later time, after he had his own support group, every time he appeared on the stage, he was rewarded with a lot of gifts, so that at this time, Luo Jun's popularity was very scary, as for the amount of rewards , is an astronomical figure, even if it is converted into star yuan, it is not a small amount that can be ignored.
"Okay, I believe everyone is very familiar with Luo Jun, so the person we want to mention next is a very extraordinary person!"
After all, there are a lot of people to be introduced this time, so the light on Luo Jun cannot be too long. At this time, Miao Miao quickly talked about the next person.
At the same time, the light fell on a stern young man.
"The person behind me comes from the Xuantian Realm. He was born in the Demon Suppression Castle, and I believe that everyone who has seen his battles over the past period of time has discovered that he is actually a sword cultivator.
But to this day, at this time, no one has ever seen him actually draw his sword. Therefore, I am actually very curious about who can force him to actually draw his sword. Let us welcome Zhang, the second person on the popularity list. cross! "
Listening to Miaomiao's narration, bursts of thunderous applause erupted from the crowd.
Facing this calm young man, many people thought he was very inconspicuous at first.
After all, when he encountered others fighting, he just fought with his iron fist.
So much so that when he fought with others, winning was actually very difficult and dangerous.
And compared to someone like Luo Jun who can defeat his opponent directly with a crushing force, in fact, what Zhang Yue has shown has always been dangerous.
Therefore, his game is not attractive at all. Because it is not entertaining, it naturally does not attract other people's attention.
But although at the beginning, his game seemed very inconspicuous, but later on, because the opponents he encountered became more and more powerful, he was naturally forced to expose himself. part of the power.
Although Zhang Yue has never really pulled out his natal flying sword, the strength Zhang Yue showed in the competition naturally revealed his identity as a swordsman.
Therefore, in the following time, many people were very curious about what would happen to his opponents if Zhang Yue pulled out his natal flying sword to attack.
Because of this, knowing that this is a sword cultivator who has never drawn his own flying sword, the expectations of the audience are naturally high.
So much so that Zhang Yue's matches have always been dangerous. He struggled to defeat his opponents, but on the contrary, more and more people placed bets on him.
Because it is known to this day that he has been preserving his strength, so he is also a strong contender for the championship.
After introducing Zhang Yue, Miaomiao continued to introduce the next person.
It was a girl with a ponytail who looked fresh and refreshing. At this time, she was standing on the stage wearing a loose sportswear, with a warm smile on her face.
At the very beginning, Zhang Xinyan was the most popular among the girls. Many people felt that Zhang Xinyan could be ranked alongside Luo Jun, and even called them the golden boy and girl.
But in the following time, this girl with a single ponytail suddenly emerged and became the most popular person today.
This is not to say that Zhang Xinyan's performance in the following time was too low, but just because this girl's performance was too eye-catching.
She was so skillful in using spells that the opponents she fought with were very frustrated.
Like Zhang Yue, this girl comes from the Xuantian Realm, and her identity is naturally very prominent, because her identity is actually the descendant of one of the three great immortals in the Xuantian Realm.
Although it seems that those buildings and immortals of Xuantian Realm are just long-term people, but as the exchanges between Xuantian Realm and the real world become more and more frequent, how can there be no difference at this time? We know that the strength of the Xuantian Realm at that time was very terrifying. The realm of those in the Xuantian Realm could be raised by one or two levels, which means that the Xuantian Realm has some intelligence, discerns the truth, and respects their strength. In fact, it is possible. It can be regarded as a god-level or even a true god-level powerhouse.
As a descendant of such a top powerhouse, it is conceivable that in today's human federation, her status is comparable to the core children of some super wealthy families.
People were introduced one by one, and Zhang Xinyan, who had attracted much attention at the time, was actually only ranked seventh.
It can be seen from here that at the beginning, although many people appeared to be very eye-catching, but in the subsequent time, as each person suddenly emerged, their strength was gradually revealed. After that, more and more people paid attention to them.
As a result, the rankings of these people rose rapidly in the following time. Therefore, the rankings that did not change much at the beginning have changed a lot compared to the beginning.
The reason for this is not that the people standing in front were not strong enough at the beginning, but because at this time, the power displayed by others was stronger than them, which naturally led to the ranking at this time. Very huge changes.
Sixty-four people were introduced one after another. It took a long time just to introduce the process.
Although it is said that there are only sixty-four people left at this time, in fact, a ranking battle will begin among these sixty-four people at this time, and therefore the subsequent battles will be more intense. At the same time, the schedule is It's also very compact.
A competition between sixty-four people is called a ladder ranking, or it can also be called a challenge or ranking match.
All they need to do is challenge every opponent.
In the following time, the sixty-four of them will have a battle with each other, and therefore their final ranking will be determined by their win points.
It would not be like at the beginning, where they would be simply and brutally caught and killed in pairs, and the loser would be directly eliminated.
When they reach this level, they stand out from countless people and finally reach this level. Each one of them has very good strength. Therefore, at this time, there are naturally no people who are just cheating.
After sixty-four people competed against each other, their rankings were finally determined.
The top ten will have the opportunity to contract with Tianwen Club. At the same time, in such a grand competition, if they actually show their strength, even if they will not enter the top ten by then, if they perform well If it is very good, they can also reach agreements with other clubs by then.
Not only the first-tier leagues, but also the secondary leagues are opening their eyes wide at this time, just to pick a few good prospects at this time.
And because it is a battle between sixty-four people, it means that there will not be two top powerhouses fighting each other, and in the end one of them will unfortunately lose.
After all, there are sixty-three games between sixty-four people, which means that a strong person can directly defeat everyone, and then he will naturally be ranked first in the world with sixty-three points. .
Many people may think that a two-on-one battle should be used to determine the strongest one, so there should be no defeat for the truly strongest person.
But at this time, if sixty-four people are used to fight each other, and then the person with the highest points is determined, in this case, it may happen that the first place is actually defeated by someone else.
But the real purpose of Xu Luo's holding this competition is to select the person with the strongest overall strength.
Therefore, at this time, the person who can suppress everyone is what he needs.
And sixty-four people directly started such a melee. It can be imagined that they naturally had a lot of games.
So naturally, as in the past, the old rules were followed, and the daily schedule was actually very compact.
However, at this time, instead of multiple games being played at the same time like at the beginning, there were ten games every day, and only one game was played in each time period.
Therefore, all the audience's attention is focused on the same live broadcast room, which naturally makes the popularity extremely explosive at this time.
Xu Luo, who had no longer paid attention to the game, appeared in the spectator seats again.
Seeing Xu Luo's appearance, Leng Ningshuang, who had been guarding his position all this time, looked very surprised.
Because she knew very well that Xu Luo was not very interested in the battle between these people at the beginning.
This can also be understood. After all, at this time, Xu Luo's status and realm were completely beyond the comparison of these young people.
So Xu Luo has a lot of things to do, and when he needs to be busy, he certainly won't be like Leng Ningshuang, who has the leisure to stay here and pay attention to the games of these people.
However, Leng Ningshuang soon realized that this was the first day of the points competition after all, so it was very normal for Xu Luo to appear here at this time.
Although it is the first day of competition, there are naturally a lot of people paying attention to the competition at this time.
After the introduction of another sixty-four people, the heads of the sixty-four people appeared on the virtual big screen.
Then I only saw the heads of the sixty-four of them shrinking, then gathering into a ball, spinning quickly, and then two heads appeared directly in everyone's sight. This also became the first scene of the day. Contest.
In the following time, names appeared one after another, and it became the second and third games.
Soon all thirty-two first-round battles were arranged.
In addition to the first round, the subsequent schedule was actually given out quickly.
Because there are sixty-four people fighting each other in pairs, the ranking arrangement at this time is only related to the order in which they fight. As for the others, the impact is not big at all.
After the battle order was given, some of the spectators quickly checked the number of matches played by these people.
After all, at this time, they naturally focus on the players they have bet on and check their games.
As for the others, they didn't have that much thought at all and kept watching.
So naturally it is the game that you focus on, watch it for a while. As for the others, take a look if you have time. If you don't have time, you can just check the game video afterwards and replay it directly.
At this time, Xu Luo, who was sitting in his seat, was deep in thought.
At the beginning, he saw those little mice secretly paying attention to the distribution of the security forces at the competition site, so he thought about being fully prepared.
If the other party wants to make some small moves at this time, he will completely eliminate the other party by then.
However, it has appeared from the group stage to the current qualifying match, but the opponent has not made the slightest movement.
So much so that Xu Luo was a little doubtful about life at this time. He felt that he was making too much of a fuss by attaching so much importance to it before.
But now, some of my own worker bees have been secretly following these people behind the scenes. They have even followed these people and found the location of the people behind them, and then sent more of these worker bees out to keep an eye on them. in those people.
Even at this time, some of them had already been parasitized by mind-feeding insects without making a sound.
But because at this time, Xu Luo was worried about alerting the enemy, so he only allowed the mind-feeding insects to parasitize in the bodies of these people, but did not let the mind-feeding insects quickly occupy their main consciousness and then transform them into their own people.
Therefore, at this time, although it was said that these people were parasitized by mind-feeding insects, Xu Luo was not entirely clear about their purpose.
So at this time, we can only let our worker bees watch their every move silently and secretly. If the other party makes any moves, he will naturally get the relevant information as soon as possible.
At this time, Xu Luo even asked his butterfly generals to arrange a sophisticated network to directly target these people behind the scenes.
It's okay if they don't move at this time. If they do, they will be captured by the Zerg hidden in the dark as soon as they activate. By then, this net will be closed, and many hidden Zerg can be captured. Fish out the big fish for a long time.
In the past, because there were a large number of outsiders coming in and out of the Hope Star, the security was like a sieve, and many people directly penetrated in.
Even at the beginning, you need to send your own Zerg out and watch behind these people.
But because there are so many people on the Hope Star, there will still be some mistakes after all.
Although these Zerg are very easy to use, after all, when they have no consciousness of their own, it will not be so convenient when marking.
But now that Xu Luo has returned in person, now that he is in charge of the center, he has arranged for his Zerg tribe to sort out the people on the entire Hope Star, and some of the people with problems, Xu Luo He didn't act rashly, he just used the Zerg himself to watch the other party silently.
The purpose is to get these people to deliver some messages that they want them to deliver, in order to confuse the people behind them.
In this qualifying match, Xu Luo appeared in person in order to use this opportunity to completely draw out the people hiding behind it.
But at this time, although the qualifying competition had really begun, there was no movement from the people behind the scenes, so that Xu Luo seemed very disappointed at this time.
Because if there is no movement from the other party this time, we still don’t know when the other party will take any action later.
For Xu Luo, the people who have always been hiding in the dark are naturally not his style.
It's just that although Xu Luo has reached the point of domination at this time, the existence of domination level in the real world, Xu Luo found that it is not as powerful as in the world of gods.
Because he was suppressed by the will of the insulating universe, Xu Luo had to be cautious in every word and deed at this time.
I was afraid that if I accidentally leaked my own power and caused great damage, I would be counterattacked by the will of the insulating universe, so that at this time, I felt very unhappy, not at the legendary level at the beginning. So convenient.
