Time passes faster in the free world than in the real world. The slightly cold morning of January 6, 796 in the New Calendar quickly returned to the sky above the Holy Mountain, and the figures of countless well-known guild players from all over the world also followed.
The crowds of people gathered again around the transparent platform at the site of the new league's first large-scale competition. I wonder if they were affected by some undercurrents last night, but the players who gathered here looked around.
Shi also became a lot more cautious, and the rustling whispers were accompanied by the appearance of the vague outlines of those people who were re-revealed on the top of the boulder, and gradually concentrated in the same direction: "Look, that is the Sky-Breaking Blade.
"
"He doesn't look like a master among masters. The cloth robe seems particularly ordinary, and the other equipment doesn't seem to have the brilliance of a divine weapon..."
"Is it something that you can know about other people's weapons and equipment? Not to mention small soldiers like us, even existences like Duan Fenglei or Luo Riguyan probably don't have the qualifications to rule the virtual world with this person.
Let’s compare it to the legendary figures of several years.”
"Don't tell me, I actually met him several times during the time I was running this camp. He even said hello to me! Doesn't he seem like an unapproachable person?"
"He is just an ordinary magician, no different from other ordinary players."
The buzzing chatter was like the chirping of insects, and soon began to get louder as the number of people gathered increased. Liangchen Meiyu, who was paying attention to these sounds, also sneered, and his eyes gradually shifted to the rear.
There are still people coming deep into the camp: "Yes, that's an ordinary magician. Just think of it like that."
"The head-on confrontation is about to begin." Pushing his chin, the handsome man then turned his gaze to the top of the rock above: "In total, this should be the first head-on confrontation between us.
Let’s fight.”
"President, what if he still hides?" A Wings of Freedom member standing behind him asked quietly: "We have made so many preparations, but if in the end he still hides behind -
—”
"I have ten thousand ways to force him to play, so there is no need to worry about this kind of problem." She interrupted the other party impatiently, and Liangchen Meiyu's slightly frowned brows also relaxed: "Besides, I don't want to worry about it at all.
Not here."
"This so-called 'legend' will only become a stepping stone for me."
Different from the evil laughter that the handsome young swordsman was making at this time, the rest of the onlookers standing in the same camp were moving and pointing more and more obviously. They kept looking up and looking for
The figure on top of the giant rock was trying to be the first witness to the Sky-Breaking Blade's long-awaited appearance. He had met him many times in the past, including those from major guilds including Duan Fenglei.
The mood of the presidents at this time seemed less urgent. They were either closing their eyes to relax or contemplating their mood at this time. Only they, who are very deep in the city, can know: "——I said, we
Isn’t it inappropriate to support that guy like this?”
"Just think of it as the five major sects or the six major sects in ancient martial arts novels that cheer for the old alliance leader. The old alliance leader is famous, but usually after making an appearance, he will be beaten by the juniors until he can't hold his head up.
Coming."
"Oh? It seems that President Qingyan is full of confidence this time? How about you go on stage to ask for advice from the other party in a moment?"
"Well, there are so many masters here, no matter how hard it is, it won't be my turn, and even if I am willing to go first, the other party may not be willing to pay attention to me! You know-"
"Should the rules of today's game be changed a little bit?"
As the leader among the elders, Duan Feng Lei, who raised his voice, suppressed the buzz around the arena with just one sentence: "The rightful owner that so many people have been waiting for has arrived, what about the one in the middle?"
Should the process also be skipped?"
"..."
No figure emerged from the top of the invisible outline of the rock. There was no response from the top of the rock that was questioned by Duan Fenglei's representative. Duan Fenglei's posture with his hands behind his back did not change in any way. For a long time, there was no change.
Then he raised his head and shouted directly above him: "Hey, are you ready?"
"Don't ask me, I'm just a humble and ordinary commentator." Then a helpless response came from the sky above the sacred mountain that everyone was staring at: "Although we are hosting and broadcasting this event, we are indeed
Even if I put in a little effort, I can't control how those premiere characters will be arranged."
"It's not just you and me, more and more viewers are listening to your channel in every corner of the mainland." Then Duan Feng Lei's expression darkened: "Are we going to make everyone in the world wait together?"
"We are not asking you to come forward and explain this matter. After all, you cannot represent that group of people." The demon resurrected on the other side also let out a few low laughs: "We are just curious, why are you here?
Answer our question, where is the Lord of Violet?"
"She's busy with other things."
Finally appearing right in front of the high platform, Duan Qing, who appeared on the edge of the sacred mountain at some unknown time, crossed the dividing line between the giant rock and the sky: "But don't worry, there are still people who will maintain the order of the game - Aha, hello, you guys
good."
"I overslept just now, so my spirit is still a little unclear." Duan Qing put on a careless and careless look, scratching his head, and then raised his hand to gesture towards the countless pairs of eyes below:
"Please forgive me, please forgive me."
"We thought you were really going to run away, along with the stall this time." The calmness on his face was replaced by a few deliberately suppressed chuckles, and Duan Fenglei raised his head and tugged at the corner of his mouth.
: "Isn't it an excuse for you to be timid and avoid fighting by running around in various dangerous and desperate situations in the free world for several days?"
"How is it possible? I wrote that challenge myself." Pointing to the sky above his head, Duan Qing screamed and twisted his facial muscles: "Although I have become less arrogant in the past two years, but
The belief and self-esteem I should have are still there, and the label 'broken promise' doesn't suit me."
"Very good, then, can I start directly?"
Suddenly he put his fists together, and there was a crackling sound between the bones of Duan Feng Lei's fists as he straightened up: "I hate red tape and procrastination, and we don't need so many words to talk to each other anyway, right?
"
"After playing with them for so long, you finally can't help it anymore." Duan Qing's eyes looking down from high to low also showed a bit of smile: "Thank you for your hard work."
"Stop talking nonsense and come down quickly." Ignoring the discussions and protests of other guild presidents and some players around him, Duan Feng Lei shouted upward: "Aren't you not timid? Don't take those anymore
The roundabout rules of the game are used as a shield!"
"No, no, no, rules are still rules. Otherwise, those who have worked so hard to finish the first day of the game will not be able to troll me on the forum for 300 pages?" Duan Qing pointed to his nose, and then made a beep sound.
His voice also became much lower: "Although the posts criticizing me now have three hundred pages... Alas, these young people nowadays are so impatient and have no respect for the elderly at all -"
call!
The roar that broke through the air instantly passed through the long distance between the two people. It flashed past the head of Duan Qing who turned his head away. The falling gravel suddenly exploded on the slope of the sacred mountain behind the gray-robed magician.
He appeared with a loud noise and echoed with Duan Feng Lei who had not yet put away his fists in front of him: "It's time to fight, old man."
"Ah, I'm sorry, it seems I shouldn't mention this word in front of you. But we are all old people -" The gray-robed magician, who half-crouched and raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, repeated what he said.
He didn't care at all about the murderous intent shown by the other party at that moment: "How about you show a little bit of recuperation as an elderly person? The rules set are also part of my promise to keep, how can they be easily changed?"
"So you still plan to let your teammates go first, right?" He raised his hand to intervene in this tit-for-tat conversation, and the short red hair of Demon Resurrection also appeared in the open space not far from Duan Fenglei: "The winner is the one who wins.
To be qualified to fight with you? With all due respect, even the old guys in our guild who have heard about your deeds are a little dubious now."
"You put on such a big show and then shirk it again and again. Do you still have the legendary strength?"
The voices of doubt became louder and louder as the words "Devil's Resurrection" appeared, and the crowd surrounding them also made a burst of agitating noise. Duan Qing, who felt the turbid atmosphere, also waved.
, and simply ignored those voices in the crowd who were still "denounced" themselves: "So I promised you yesterday."
"Today's game is a continuation of yesterday's game."
The white-haired female swordsman, the heavily armed shield bearer, the berserker carrying the giant sword, and the pretty girl in a maid outfit... The members of the Qing Ling Adventure Group burst into laughter as Duan Qing finished speaking.
As soon as he appeared behind the dividing line between the giant rock and the sky, he faced the people under the high platform with the same smiling expression as Jian Beidong: "After all, the interrupted game yesterday has not been finished. I
I also owe two games that I haven’t played, so——”
"For the sake of fairness, I will give Mr. Wizard, the president, a chance to choose."
He gestured in the direction of Lu Rigu Yan, who had been silent and had an extremely solemn expression around the competition venue. Duan Qing's smile also had a somewhat meaningful feeling: "Your Excellency, Lu Ri Gu Yan, please choose one."
There are four opponents on our side who are still qualified to compete in the competition..."
"——Four people? Are you kidding me?" The strong man in red robe who did not reply for a moment immediately heard Nifeng Leisure's voice of protest: "Forget about the Jian Beidong, including the Snow Spirit Huan Bing, there is only one left.
It only took two people to do it, so why did it become four people?"
"Of course there are four more people, the remaining members of our Qing Ling adventure group." Duan Qing replied matter-of-factly: "In addition to the two of them, there are also Ciyu Ninglan and -"
"I."
Pointing to his nose, Duan Qing used one word to calm the atmosphere in the temporary camps up and down the sacred mountain: "Of course I am also a member of the Qingling Adventure Group. According to the previous rules, I am also qualified to substitute, right?
?”
"Can you play?" The entire free world seemed to be trembling with the subsequent chorus of players: "Do you want to participate directly?"
"Of course." Duan Qing seemed to be very satisfied with the reaction of the people below, and nodded with a smile: "As a 'legend', I am the ultimate leader-level figure, but as a member of the adventure group, I am qualified
As a substitute for participating in the challenge qualifying tournament, the confirmation of this relationship shouldn’t be too much, right?”
"Do you want us to admit that you can take the lead in participating in the challenge?" Finally understanding what Duan Qing meant, Duan Fenglei's eyebrows darkened again: "If I defeat you in this level, you can still appear in the next level.
--do you mean this?"
"After all, our Qingling adventure group is alone, we have to find some way to gather more people who can fight." Duan Qing helplessly spread his hands: "Including Ninglan, the two of us were outside before and had nothing to do.
It shouldn’t be too much for the returning members to ask to rejoin the battlefield now, right?”
"Isn't this too much? You already have two lives!" Mephisto jumped up and shouted: "Do you still want that old face?"
"Two lives can only take effect once. Once used, it cannot be used again."
Still trying his best to persuade everyone present, Duan Qing continued to answer with an innocent look on his face: "In the end, it's just one more fight and one more 'communication' between us."
"You even have a chance to humiliate me a second time." The smile on the gray-robed magician's face also had a bit of a devilish feeling when he said this: "If you really have the strength and confidence to defeat me,
, these problems will no longer be a problem, right?"
"Even if I admit that you have a chance to fight again, it doesn't mean that others will admit it."
The constant buzzing in his ears gradually turned into a new round of denunciations and protests. Duan Fenglei, who was sitting among them, crossed his arms and gestured to the surroundings: "I don't have any objection to one more fight, but you
I’ve also seen that not everyone will buy it.”
"Then let's ask the person involved for his opinion first. After all, he is the one who is going to play next." Duan Qing changed the subject with confidence, and then showed an encouraging expression: "Your Excellency Lu Rigu Yan."
"Are you interested in choosing one of our four people to be your next new opponent?"
"...let me discuss it."
The expression on his face changed for a long time, and Luo Rigu Yan finally sighed with a long breath.
