On the third day of the exchange meeting, the battle finally came.
The arena in Tower 1 was already buzzing with people, and the venue that could accommodate tens of thousands of people was almost full.
This arena was jointly built by the Council and the Martial Arts Guild. There is one in each tower area. It is a dedicated place for cultivators to duel or challenge on weekdays. Of course, it is also the first choice for all important events.
The martial arts guild is mainly responsible for maintaining order. The team of priests responsible for treatment, the team of mages responsible for defensive formations, and the notaries responsible for notarizing battle results are responsible for issuing tasks and hiring personnel. Over the years, the arena has already formed a complete set of system.
Except for the fact that combatants need to pay a few crystal coins, this arena is completely free. On weekdays, many people come here to watch the battles of cultivators. Some very financially savvy businesses will also pay attention to the battles of famous cultivators. Make betting odds and advertise your own business.
However, this kind of handicap has a clear upper limit, and gambling income will also be heavily taxed. Especially after Speaker Gan Ruyi took charge of the parliament, the implementation of the law has become even more stringent. Areas like gambling that can easily breed darkness have been restrained. a lot of.
However, Roland was obviously interested in this. When Yu and his two sisters finally squeezed out of the crowd and came to the exclusive area of Jialuo Academy, Roland had just come back from the gambling place. He held a lottery ticket in his hand and stuffed it into it casually. In arms.
The sharp-eyed Yu had already caught a glimpse that the lottery ticket was worth five blue crystal coins, and the bet was from Xingluo Academy. Five blue crystal coins was not a small amount for Roland, who was a "work-study student".
Yu was naturally wearing the uniform of a Garo student, but he had an exquisite mask on his face, covering most of his face. On such an occasion, he didn't want to attract attention.
Of course, this mask was carefully made for him by his two sisters, Xiaosan and Xiaowu. The two sisters are so ingenious that they can do anything at home! The white mask was almost exactly the same as his skin color. If you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't notice it at all. However, after putting it on, his temperament changed drastically. When Yu looked in the mirror, he felt that he was just an ordinary young man. The effect was extremely satisfying to him!
Friends who were familiar with him naturally recognized him quickly and praised him one after another. Xiaosan and Xiaowu sat reservedly behind them, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but raise slightly.
In the center of the arena is a standard arena with a height of half a meter, which is extremely spacious. Several magic masters are testing the surrounding space defense formations and completing the most important pre-match preparations.
Above the space formation is a huge four-sided crystal screen provided by the Magic Maker Guild. It is hung high on the huge roof. Dozens of magic photo-taking equipment are arranged in a circle below the crystal screen, aiming at the people in the arena. In each area, the pictures are played in real time on four crystal screens so that people from a distance can watch the game.
The exchange meeting of the five major colleges is an important event with a long history in the human realm. Many people in the tower area are interested in it, and the level of attention in the Magic Network forum is also very high. Of course, these photos will also be stored and transmitted to the transfer owners through the Magic Network. People can watch it by using badges in the tower area with shadow permission. With the current level of magic creation, the delay of this kind of transformation is not too long, but applying for permission requires some crystal coins. This is of course provided by the tower. The district finance department is responsible for this as a welfare for the people of the district.
The areas where the two sides of the competition are located are located on both sides of the arena, facing each other far away. The two academy teams have been waiting there for a long time. However, only two of the four crystal screens are focusing on the status of the participating team members. The other two sides are invariably aimed at Jialuo. College area.
The mood of the people facing these two crystal screens was obviously higher. In addition to supporting the players from their own academy, more attention was paid to the saint who was wearing ordinary priest robes but was in the Gallo team. .
Regardless of the crown and ribbon, Heather is a girl with a beautiful and refined appearance and a calm and elegant temperament. She is the focus of public aesthetics wherever she is placed. Coupled with her extremely noble dual identity, she is even more eye-catching!
Whenever the crystal screen focused on her, Heather had to stand up and wave, which led to even louder cheers.
However, people naturally cannot hear the conversations in the Garo area. While maintaining perfect posture, Heather has already received a promise from her two sisters. She will soon have a share of the magical mask, but of course the size of the mask It varies from person to person, and a lot of facial data needs to be specially measured, and it is also very time-consuming to create. There are only a few days left for the exchange meeting, and I am afraid it will be too late.
The crystal screen camera stayed here for a long time. Many people may have already known the identity of Captain Jialuo as a "sinner" and had been one of the people who scolded him. However, under the cover of that mask, the scene was It didn't stir up much strangeness.
In this regard, although classmate Heather's expression was calm as usual, her subtle and frequent conversations revealed her deep-seated envy. Thinking of what happened that morning, "Brother Yu's" lunch once again became the target of expressing her feelings.
An event of this scale naturally requires a judge, and the usual rule is that the organizer is responsible. On the two seats not far from the arena, Grandmaster Qianyin, who had not been seen for a long time, was sitting there, closing his eyes to rest.
The other one is Tutor Rose, but Tutor Qiang has no interest in the large and comfortable chair today. She holds a magic amplification tool in her hand, and her slightly hoarse voice can be heard everywhere in the arena. She looks very interested. A vigorous look.
The atmosphere in the venue was already extremely heated, and Teacher Qiangwei was even more familiar with her endless warm-up words. Under her leadership, the applause and cheers were getting louder and louder. After Teacher Qiangwei introduced Mr. Mu and the officiant Sanyao, When a powerful figure in the altar began to introduce Her Royal Highness the Princess, the enthusiasm of the people reached an unprecedented peak, and even the roof was about to be lifted off!
It was the first time that Yu saw Teacher Qiangwei like this, and he was very interested.
The introduction of the players on both sides is another important point. It seems that Mentor Qiangwei is already familiar with the information about the Xingluo team. He talked about his personal strength and ethnic background. The people at the scene were warned repeatedly when making the reservation. At this time, there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. A polite response, and of course not stingy with your own applause.
When it was Yuhuo Academy's turn, it was very brief. Except for Nalan Yimin's emphatically introduced introduction, the other four contestants only announced their names.
Meng Zhang, Zhi Ming, Jian Bing, Ling Guang.
These four team members, like Nalan Yimin, wore ordinary blue-ribbon priest robes, and there was nothing special about their appearance.
Even the introduction to Nalan Yimin and Teacher Qiangwei was not biased at all. She seemed very professional in the job of "hosting". It seemed that her knowledge of the four priest contestants was indeed limited.
The other two college teams have also arrived to watch the match. However, the only powerful people on the altar are Mr. Mu of Xingluo Academy and Sanyao, the officiant. After all, the exchange meeting is a battle between junior professionals. It is enough for the strong master to be the referee. There will also be no case where the verdict is unfair and would mean nothing to the host college other than embarrassment.
