August 27th.
For many freshmen at Jiangcheng University, this is a day they have been looking forward to since they entered school.
The first challenge day of the Rising Star List!
The challenge activity obviously started at ten o'clock, but early in the morning, the whole school was in a noisy atmosphere.
Of course, these will not affect Lin You who lives in the villa area.
Although this challenge day has attracted a lot of attention, in the final analysis, Jiangcheng University only enrolls 500 students every year.
The total number of students in the school is only 2,000, so no matter how hard you try, you won't get anywhere.
Especially the entire school covers a terrifyingly large area.
However, Lin You got up quite early today.
For no other reason than to absorb the magic orb again!
This absorption has only been a few days since the last time, and the last time it was absorbed was so full that a lot of magic debris accumulated in the body.
As usual, if you absorb it now, you will be seeking death, and you won't be afraid of magic power being blocked!
But there is no way. The effect of the exercise on the fourth floor of the magic pressure building was so amazing that the magic debris in the body was cleared away in one go.
Without this problem, the absorption interval will be greatly advanced.
At any rate, after a few days, Lin You can no longer be said to be eager for quick success, and is even a bit steady.
It's also really stable.
It's one thing to practice diligently, but it's another thing to take risks out of desperation.
In order to speed up some progress, I am afraid that even the brainless people will not be able to make fun of their own future.
At this moment, the magic power has been frozen in the body, and the effect of the magic orb is reflected.
After absorbing this magic power, some fine cracks appeared on the surface of the magic orb, but it did not completely collapse.
This means that the magic orb has not collapsed yet and can still provide one absorption, but the absorption effect is probably low.
Right now, after completing this absorption, Lin You's magic power increased by only 5 points, which was 2 points less than the previous two times.
But compared to ordinary people, he is still ahead.
And this lead refers to the effect that ordinary people absorb for the first time.
Even if the magic power provided by the magic orb is relatively balanced, the first time it is absorbed, the effect is always the best.
If other people knew about Lin You's absorption efficiency, they wouldn't be envious of baskets of lemons.
The absorption was successfully completed and I felt the magic power in my body.
209 points!
not bad.
Lin You nodded with satisfaction.
So far, the magic orb has provided him with up to 19 points of magic power, and he can barely use it again. After using it, it is certain to break through 20 points.
Purchasing an orb only costs 50 duel points.
Compared with the large magic crystal worth 30 duel points, it can provide 13 points of magic power. The effect is indeed outstanding and the price/performance ratio is very high!
But on the premise that there is no shortage of duel points, large magic crystals are still more popular.
One-time absorption saves a lot of time, relatively speaking.
But for these hours, at least dozens more points are spent, so it is said to be something that rich people do.
Lin You doesn't pay attention to these things. He can use them anyway. As long as the effect is good, nothing else is a problem.
Picked up the phone and looked at the time.
Still early.
There is still more than an hour before the ten o'clock challenge.
With a flick of his finger, he clicked on a message.
"Everything is ready, just waiting for you to pick someone. However, Lin You, don't blame me for talking too much. It's actually not easy to deal with your pick this time. You fought too well with Zhu Hui last time, and you passed it again. I think there are few freshmen who don't know about this fermentation, so in their eyes, you are a bit ridiculously strong, and they don't care about Zhu Hui's level. Even if he is not on the list, he is still an old student. In the end, it was somewhat obvious that you suppressed me."
"With such an incident ahead of you, even if you really fight against a few of the 'lower' ones on the Rising Stars list, no one may think that the other party can win. I feel that most people will have confidence in you. This time the handicap may collapse. , If you really want to make money, it may be quite difficult.”
The news was sent by Guo Rui early in the morning, and the other party was very positive about the opening of the market.
There is no way not to be active. The one-time income is hundreds of duel points. After dividing, you can still keep a lot.
In the entire Class A, there is probably no one richer than him.
This time, he also made preparations very early, but he also had concerns. As he said, this time it was not a guaranteed profit, but he might spit out the Duel Points he earned.
Lin You was speechless when he saw the news. Can these people not have so much confidence in him for no reason?
Delay in making money!
After thinking about it, Lin You replied: "If I challenge the top 180 players, do you think it's enough to make them 'empathize' with my message?"
Not long after he replied, there was a reaction from Guo Rui, who was obviously watching closely.
"So cruel? The first 180... let alone this one, even those in 191 and 2 are quite different from the ones at the end of the list. I checked some previous information, and these people at the end of the list The frequency of personnel transfers is obviously much higher than that of other positions, which means that the gap in strength is indeed not small."
Seeing this, Lin You felt certain, but immediately after, he received another message.
"But other people have just entered school, so they won't care about this. The strength gap between the top 180 and the ones at the back of the crane is obviously not small, but it sounds like the difference between only one or twenty people may not be shaken. Their judgment will most likely overwhelm you."
"..."
Lin You felt tired.
Is this really the case? The last opening of the duel really turned into a one-shot deal. Can’t you make a profit this time?
As for going one step further and challenging the top 170, 160, or even 150...
I dare to challenge him, but to say he is sure of victory is to deceive others.
In fact, Lin You has never competed with the students on the Rising Star List, and he doesn't know their specific strength.
Challenging the top 180, I also feel that I have a high chance of winning.
The reason is also because the last duel between Zhu Hui and him was arranged by Chen Yi, the leader.
In addition, it is a gambling battle, involving 200 duel points, which is a lot.
If you think about it, you will know that Zhu Hui is not a student on the Rising Stars list, but his strength is estimated to be at least qualified to hit the list, or he may be evenly matched with those at the end of the crane list.
Based on this, Lin You judged that it would not be a problem to sort out the top 180 on the list, and he was still a sure winner!
He now has a 'big killer' at his disposal.
With this 'killing weapon', not to mention many, hanging Zhu Hui up and beating him was as good as eating and drinking.
But no matter how much, there will be uncertainty, which is not small.
Just as he was wondering if this matter was going to be pornographic, he saw another message from Guo Rui excitedly.
"Brother, there is good news. I just heard that Deng Zhuo from your advanced class went to the Xinxing Duel Hall."
Deng Zhuo?
Lin You was a little surprised, not because he went to the duel hall, but because it was still more than an hour before the challenge started. This guy went so early?
But he soon stopped caring about it and thought of something.
On the other end, Guo Rui said again: "Here's a chance! If a genius like Deng Zhuo goes so early, he must be 'getting someone to operate', and he can't wait! Wait until he comes first. If he chooses If you find a stronger student, not to mention losing the battle, the fight will definitely be fierce. Deng Zhuo is still quite famous. In the general understanding of us freshmen, even if he is weaker than you, he will not be less. , after this battle, everyone will have an idea of the strength of the students on the Rising Star List. If you pick someone who is in the top dozen, it will be considered a big fish. By then, even if others have confidence in you, I support you, and I won’t place a bet on you casually. I just place a bet on you with just a few points.”
"This is also the best. Actually, I don't want to earn dueling points from the same grade. We are all freshmen, and it is not easy to earn dueling points. If you want to cheat dueling points, it is still the same as those experienced ones. I think they have a lot of savings."
Lin You replied again, and Guo Rui quickly said: "Then it's settled. I hope I can make a fortune this time and enjoy it!"
After seeing the news, he smiled and said nothing more. He put away his phone and looked in the direction of the dining table.
The little guy Li Ziqiu is still eating.
I haven't had much life recently, but my life has been quite nourishing. Apart from eating and sleeping, I only have entertainment and watching movies.
Without interrupting, it was still early, so Lin You walked back to the room to make final preparations.
…
Nine fifty.
Nova Duel Hall.
In the huge venue, there are nearly a thousand people sitting around the main venue No. 1.
Compared to the vastness of the venue, this number of people sounds small, but in fact, it is already very large.
The total number of first and second grade students is a thousand.
Today, it is no exaggeration to say that almost 99% of the freshmen were present.
This excitement, even people who didn't want to join in at first, were infected by the impatient friends around them, and they followed.
Anyway, it doesn’t cost anything to join in the fun!
Not only the first-year students, but also the second-year students, more than 70% came.
There must be dozens of people in higher grades.
But not every challenge day can be so popular. Although this challenge is supposed to be the home field of the second graders, for them, this is a common thing, and there is no need to join in the fun again and again.
In the first grade, that is even more true!
If they don't have anything to do, how can they always have time to come over?
The excitement is only temporary, just keep it fresh.
This time it was time to catch up with the light of the beginning of school and attract so many people.
In fact, the last battle between Lin You and Zhu Hui also contributed to the situation.
Otherwise, the enthusiasm of the freshmen would not be so great.
Participation is very important.
After Lin You's battle, many people were thinking, this old student is nothing special, so what about the rising star list?
There are a few tough guys in their batch of freshmen, and they might even be able to drag a few seniors off the list.
Today, since it is a challenge day, only the No. 1 main venue is open.
The only venue means that it will better focus everyone's attention.
As for the progress of the duel, don't worry about that.
After all, it is not a competition, and the number of people who actually decide to challenge is also quite limited.
There may be many people who have the intention to challenge, but most of them just join in the fun, experience the strength of the students on the list, and measure the gap between them.
In this kind of challenge, there is a huge disparity in strength, and they are often 'killed instantly'.
At this moment, in the center of Main Field No. 1, stood a man wearing an open black cloak, a scar on his face, and a cigar in his mouth.
This man is quite tall, standing upright, and with a rather fierce aura, he looks quite eye-catching.
"That one is..."
Lin You, who had just entered the venue, also saw this person and was a little curious. Next to him was Guo Rui, who had just come out to greet him.
"I heard that he is a senior who has graduated from the school and is also the notary for today's challenge."
Guo Rui had heard about this and explained: "Notarization is actually nothing special. It is mainly to prevent someone from cheating. But what we really prevent is the top fifty on the list, which only involves the reward threshold."
Lin You couldn't help but ask: "Then to judge this, wouldn't it be necessary to have a good understanding of the strength of each top fifty student?"
Is it okay to leave this matter to a senior who has just graduated?
Also, is it really okay for this senior to dress like this and smoke a cigar here?
"This is also recorded with combat images. If you want to release water, the release will be very limited. It is not good to show a performance that is too different from the previous records. After your strength improves, it will be okay to hide this part of the improved strength. OK, but it doesn’t really mean much.”
Guo Rui said with a smile: "In this list, if you let yourself go and give your place to others, you will actually lose. If you really want to make a lot of money, you have to win in a row. If you don't have the strength, how can you hire a bunch of actors?" To be more serious, no one is cheating on this. As for a group of people communicating with each other in private, today we will act for you, and tomorrow you will act for me. The traces are too obvious, no one is a fool."
"That's true."
Lin You nodded and didn't worry about it. Making money and ranking were the main business today. He immediately changed the subject and asked, "Have you thought about the handicap?"
"The budget is ready, just waiting for you to pick people."
Guo Rui narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Speaking of which, today is really lively. Our freshmen are not just you and Deng Zhuo. I see people like Xia Mu, Xiao Yi, Zeng Xi, and Wan Yibin are all here. They are all from various high schools. The new king, a tough guy! By the way, there are also Qi Yuxuan and Chu Ke who have worked with us on the assessment island. These two girls are also very strong, especially Qi Yuxuan. He plans to play in the future, but he may not few!"
"Everyone is here?"
Lin You was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that this challenge was really popular, but then he chuckled and said: "This is a good thing! The more people, the better. This time, it's up to Lao Xia and the others to help me take the lead." , let’s distinguish some things.”
Hearing him mention this, Guo Rui couldn't help but ask: "Speaking of which, Lin You, what is your strength now? Why do you feel like you can really suppress monsters like Xia Mu and Xiao Yi who graduated from prestigious schools!"
"Who knows."
Lin You smiled mysteriously and didn't explain much.
Stable voltage?
It is indeed unrealistic at the beginning of school. If we really compete, evenly matched is probably the limit.
But now, it's really possible.
At least at this stage, Lin You didn't think they could break through the trump card he had just brewed.
Unless they also mastered some new super trump card in less than ten days.
This possibility is obviously very slim.
But at this time, Lin You seemed to feel something, and his eyes moved.
Sure enough, many eyes were looking towards him at this moment.
Not all of them were freshmen, but also many sophomores and even older students.
Lin You's battle that day indeed made him famous throughout the school.
But soon, Lin You discovered something was wrong.
More and more eyes were looking at him, but there was something strange about those eyes.
That look in his eyes obviously had nothing to do with the last duel.
"By the way, Lin You."
At this time, Guo Rui also realized that something was wrong. He suddenly thought of something and his eyes changed. He asked with some confusion: "I suspect that someone was exaggerating the news on the forum to spread rumors for you. They just didn't know how to do it. What’s the point, and the rumors are so outrageous.”
"What about the magic power pressing down on the building?"
Lin You smiled and thought of this matter. Yesterday, the teacher specifically mentioned this matter to him. Unexpectedly, it really attracted a lot of attention.
"Did you hear that?"
After saying this, Guo Rui's eyes suddenly changed and he hesitated: "No, it can't be true, right?"
"What do you think?"
Lin You said with a smile, without explaining, just think whatever you want.
The thing is indeed true.
But if this thing spreads, it may not be a good thing, at least not for today.
It can easily affect everyone's judgment, causing the wind direction of the handicap to deflect.
certainly.
Although this matter caused quite a stir on the forum, everyone's attitude was basically dubious.
Believe it or not, these are all nice things to say.
Most people just thought it was a post on the forum that the poster had no idea about.
This kind of water-blowing post is actually not new.
It was only because of the recent celebrity, Lin You, the new star, that it caused some waves.
A newcomer can easily withstand pressure for forty minutes on the fourth floor. Does he really think he is a fool?
Even a fool wouldn’t believe it!
Fortunately, the poster had the nerve to defend himself, insisting that this was the truth, and involving the iceberg goddess Hua Peiling, so he was not afraid of being picked out and beaten.
What’s even more outrageous is that a group of people echoed it, saying that it was true!
If it wasn't like this, I'm afraid no one would be affected by it and would doubt it.
As the saying goes, three people make a tiger.
There are not just three people, there are thirteen people!
If the content hadn't been too exaggerated and even sounded a bit fanciful, I'm afraid its influence would have been ten times or a hundred times what it is now!
But believe it or not, Lin You's reputation has spread in a real sense.
