The first grade group was assigned to the seventh training field. At this moment, the second floor of the seventh training field was completely opened up. The walls of all the rooms slowly fell down and embedded into the ground.
This design was very novel, turning the entire second floor into a huge square.
The lights in the arena shone brightly, making Moxiu feel as if he had returned to the Underground Arena.
There were only four competition venues in the center of the entire square. The rest of the place was filled with spectators.
“Dear first year students, the exciting time of the year has arrived. Some of you are excited and nervous because you have advanced to the internal competition, while some of you can only become spectators because you have not advanced.”
“But it doesn’t matter. You still have a chance. As long as you maintain your competitiveness at all times, you will be the ones standing in the center of the arena next year!
“Now! Whether you are a participant or a spectator, let us enjoy this feast together. Please welcome the participants!!!”
“First, the power attack system with the best overall results last year! ! The eight contestants walked to the center of the field and received the cheers of the audience.
Next was the elemental system, agility system, ability system, and finally the support system that Moxiu was in.
The number of people in each system was different. There were eight power attack system members, eight elemental system members, six agility and ability system members, and four support system members.
There were a total of thirty-two people. The number of people participating in the competition every year was fixed at thirty-two. The spots for each department this year were distributed according to the results of the previous year.
Last year, in the individual competition, the power attack and elemental
classes were ranked second in total, so they were allocated eight spots. The support classes were at the bottom, so they only had four spots. To put it bluntly, it was like the predecessors planted trees and the future generations took advantage of them.
The rules of the individual competition were very simple. Each contestant would have four matches, and their opponents would be random. The top eight would be chosen based on their results.
In order to avoid eliminating the stronger contestants and maintain fairness, each department had a seeded contestant.
The Power Assault System and the Elemental System had eight participants, so they could choose two seeded players. The other three systems only had one seeded player.
There were a total of seven seeds. These seven people would not meet each other to prevent the seeded contestants from being eliminated.
The individual competition was divided into four days. Every day, everyone would have a match. Time was tight, and the main reason for the rush was to give the students more time to prepare for the team battle.
It was worth mentioning that MO Xiu had two acquaintances in the other Elements. One was Liu Ziyang from the Agility Element, and the other was Zhou Qiuwu from the Power Attack Element.
Liu Ziyang’s skills were more suitable for teamwork. He was not particularly strong on his own, so he was not the strongest among Agility Attacks. Even so, he still fought his way up. The pressure he had been under during this period of time was also quite high. This was also the reason why he did not contact Moxiu.
Zhou Qiuwu was a seed of the power attack system. Looking at the state of the eight power attack system players, Zhou Qiuwu seemed to be the leader.
MO Xiu knew very well that his strongest opponent was most likely Zhou Qiuwu, who came from the same high school as him.
After all, it was the first day of the annual inter-school battle, so the host did another round of warm-up.
Most of the audience members were first-year students, and there were very few people from other grades.
Because the four grade matches were held at the same time, everyone wanted to pay more attention to their potential opponents and pay attention to the matches of the same grade.
The host warmed up and explained the rules. After more than half an hour, the competition began.
The opponents were completely random, but the order of appearance could be arranged.
The school had placed Zhou Qiuwu’s match as the first to open the competition.
It could be seen that Zhou Qiuwu was highly regarded. Moreover, from the cheers in the stadium, his popularity was also very high.
MO Xiu wasn’t in the first four groups, which gave MO Xiu a chance to see Zhou Qiuwu’s performance.
He shouted,” The match begins!” After that, the host did not say another word. After all, it was a formal competition in the school, different from the underground arena.
The host of the Underground Arena would also talk non-stop during the battle to raise the audience’s mood, while the host of the official competition would keep quiet so as not to affect the performance of the contestants.
Although there were four groups, most people were attracted by Zhou Qiuwu’s group.
Zhou Qiuwu’s opponent was a student from the Agility Faculty. The opponent knew how powerful Zhou Qiuwu was, so he activated his skill at the beginning of the match, wanting to seize the opportunity.
This Agility System student’s skill was similar to a clone. He could form a second self at an extremely fast speed. The two of them could attack at the same time. One was fake and the other was real. It was difficult to distinguish between fake and real.
Zhou Qiuwu activated his skill expressionlessly. He spread his hands to both sides, and a glowing circle appeared on the ground. A silver spear slowly rose from the circle.
He held the spear in his right hand and swung it to the side, showing some decisiveness before going into battle.
Moxiu still had a match to attend, so he didn’t use God’s Sight. He didn’t know how strong the skill was, but this was definitely the coolest skill effect Moxiu had ever seen.
Looking at the silver spear’s magnificence, it was definitely not simple.
Also, weapons were not allowed in the competition, but the opponent’s skill was a weapon. This was equivalent to cheating.
The spear emphasized agility. According to MO Xiu’s understanding, the spear had to be coordinated with a nimble movement technique. It could not be restricted by the spear. The spear should use the spear flexibly in order to win by surprise.
However, Zhou Qiuwu didn’t do that. He didn’t even move, let alone his movement technique. His feet were as steady as roots, and he didn’t even wave his spear. He just stuck it straight into the ground.
In the beginning, MO Xiu thought that Zhou Qiuwu didn’t know how to use a spear, and that he should learn how to use a spear.
However, the moment Zhou Qiuwu’s spear moved, MO Xiu knew that this person would be the strongest opponent in his four years in university.
When his opponent got close to Zhou Qiuwu, Zhou Qiuwu quickly struck out with his spear. It was so fast that no one could see it clearly. They only felt a
silver shadow flash past.
The opponent stood still on the spot. Moxiu focused his gaze and saw that the tip of the spear was already pressed against the opponent’s throat. This highly anticipated opening match had ended just like that.
Zhou Qiuwu only used one move and a simple spear attack.
MO Xiu frowned and pondered. Zhou Qiuwu did not even look at his opponent just now, but he was able to distinguish his opponent’s true body. It should be the spear skill that increased his perception.
There was also the speed. The speed of that spear was too fast. Even Moxiu himself did not have the confidence to dodge it.
“Divine Spear Zhou Qiu! Divine Spear Zhou Qiuwu!”
Overwhelming cheers filled the entire stadium. In the noisy environment, MO Xiu saw Zhou Qiuwu look in his direction. He didn’t know if it was his imagination.
Following that, there were two more matches. Each match was very exciting, and Moxiu was also watching with great interest. There were all kinds of skills, and the flexible application of each skill was quite interesting to study.
During the last four groups in the morning, Moxiu’s name was called.
“Next up are the last four groups in the morning. After these four groups are over, we will have a lunch break and continue in the afternoon. The next four groups are the support-type seeded player MO Xiu versus the elemental-type Zhang He. ”
“Support-type?” Zhang He asked after entering the arena. I’m not afraid of you even if you’re a seeded player. Don’t let me beat you until you cry!”
“We’ll know if there’s anyone who can fight,” Moxiu replied with a smile..”
