Chapter Fifty-Six: The Competition Begins

t descended slowly, bearing the flag of Xia Country. It hovered above the villa when it landed, shrouded in light that enveloped Xu Jingming's house as well. 。The neighbors couldn't see what was happe...Xia Kingdom official livestream

"There are so many people here." 。Xu Jingming, Li Miaomiao, Wang Yi, Heng Fang, Yang Qingshuo, and Liu Chongyuan's team members all gathered together. Their families and friends also came to the livestream room in groups of three or four. 。"The live stream audience has now surpassed 800 million and is still rising, it's truly insane." 。Xu Jingming sighed. 。"Hello everyone in the live stream, let me introduce..." 。"Besides these two..." As host Liu Xin just opened his mouth on the commentary stage, the stands erupted in a roar of cheers. 。Host Liu Xin also laughed and continued, "I believe the two guests have already felt everyone's enthusiasm. The person beside me is currently the number one person on the Star Chart global ranking, Teacher Liu Hai. Today is Teacher Liu Hai's first time participating in a live broadcast!"

Liu Hai, who is tall and muscular, sits on the commentary stage, but he is much more gentle and reserved. He smiles at the audience. 。

"Hello everyone" 。"Liu Hai waved goodbye." 。

Another wave of cheers erupted, like a mountain roaring and the sea surging. Now, Liu Hai has countless fans among the common people and is incredibly popular. 。

The only thing is that Liu Hai has never participated in any livestreams or activities.

This is my first live stream. 。"Hahaha…" From the stands, Yang Qingxue couldn't help but say, "Master he… usually in front of us, he seems like a lion or tiger…" 。Today I feel like a big, fluffy cat, even waving politely. 。I'll make a note of that, "

" and show it to the master later. 。"Hengfang said, 'To say Master is like a big cat' " 。">Actually, it kinda does look like that." 。Li Miao Miao looked at Liu Hai on the commentary desk. Liu Hai had a stern face, thick eyebrows and beard, and piercing eyes that seemed to glare like a lion or tiger, instilling fear! But at this moment, he was smiling kindly at the audience, indeed resembling a big, fluffy cat. 。"Did you hear, even your sister-in-law said like... " 。Yang Qingshuo immediately said. 。"Well, never mind. I won't tell Master." 。“He looked closely, “You’re right, Master sitting there waving his hands is like a beckoning lucky cat.” 。"Xu Jingming said: 'In the preliminaries, Master and Senior Leiyun can choose not to participate, so they will go as guests.'" 。Then they'll be competing in the main tournament... and won't be able to sit at the commentator's desk anymore. 。"So this is probably their only time on the commentary desk for the whole Hearthstone Fireside Gathering" Wang Yi said. 。"If I am eliminated early, there's a possibility that I could be back on the commentary desk." 。"Li Miaomiao said" 。"Eliminated early" Xu Jingming and the others all looked at Li Miaomiao. 。"For example, if Liu Hai and Lei Yunfang senior meet beforehand, wouldn't one of them be eliminated" Li Miaomiao said. 。

"You make a good point" 。"Wang Yi said, 'But according to the format, the probability of them meeting before the final is low. We should meet one of them earlier.'" 。"Then we'll just eliminate them!" Li Miao Miao clenched her fist, "As a substitute player, I believe in the strength of our team." 。On the commentary stage, Liu Xin continued, "As for this one, he is currently the fifth-ranked master on the Starry Sky List worldwide, Lei Yunfang." 。Lei Yunfang's face bore a scar, his expression cold and stern. He was lean in build and seldom smiled. 。From the commentary booth, facing an audience that has already climbed to 900 million viewers, he also managed a smile and waved his hand. 。Lei Yunfang's senior's smile is so fake. 。Xu Jingming's Commentary 。To make him laugh, it's really difficult. 。"He Fang also nodded, "But at least they're trying to smile." 。"The picture of him smiling, remember to take a screenshot, this is a great picture" 。Yang Qingxue said 。On the commentary stage, Liu Xin said enthusiastically: "Both teachers are very rare, and this is the first time they have come to our live studio. Look, now there are nine hundred million viewers, how enthusiastic." 。"Do our two teachers have anything they'd like to say to us"

"I'm looking forward to it..." Teacher Liu Hai smiled, "This time in the Huǒzhēng Cup competition, there are teams that could beat my team" 。

Another earth-shattering cheer. 。"I'm quite looking forward to" 。"Lei Yunfang said, 'My duel with Liu Hai in the Huozhong Cup was..." 。Liu Hai also looked at Lei Yunfang. This speed-based knife expert, who was the best in the world. 。Then we'll see each other in the competition. 。"Liu Hai said" 。"Wow... I'm already getting fired up for the Firebrand Cup competition even before it starts. " 。"Host Liu Xin excitedly said, 'It's almost 12:00 AM on September 1st. All the teams that have signed up for the Huǒzhīng Cup competition are about to head to the preparation area.'" 。On the other side, Xu Jingming, Wang Yi, Heng Fang, Yang Qingshuo, and Liu Chongyuan all received a prompt: “The preliminary round is about to begin. Please proceed to the battle space.” 。。Xu Jingming stood up, and the other four people all stood up. 。Come on, son! 。"Mother Xu cried out loudly" 。

"Come on, Dad!" 。Yang Qinghuo's son cheered 。"Honey, you're the most handsome!" Hengfang's wife was shouting too. 。"Come on, Dad!" The three little girls all looked up at Liu Chongyuan with admiration. 。"Mom, you're the best in the world!" A young girl looked at Wang Yi and cheered. 。"Lǐmù team, invincible!" Lǐ Miǎomiǎo cheered. 。Xu Jingming and his five companions, amidst cheers from their loved ones, all headed into the battle space. 。Whoa, the battle space, the Fireseed Cup competition's preparation area 。

There are so many people. 。Xu Jingming and five others appeared out of thin air, seeing a dense crowd at once. 。This time, there were 821 teams signed up. Most of the top-tier experts participated. 。"He said, 'I heard that on the last day of registration, many top-level experts live-streamed to gather teammates! As long as they are at the divine level and can form a team, no one will mind.'" 。We easily invite teammates because we are strong and know many skilled players. 。"Liu Chongyuan said, 'Many folk masters have few friends, and some might only break through to the divine level in the last day or two! Their strength belongs to the bottom of the divine level, and they don't know many divine-level masters... If they want to assemble a team, they can only publicly recruit.'" 。Five unfamiliar, god-level players barely making up a team, coming to join in the fun is perfectly normal. 。"Amateur players, in the beginning, did indeed face difficulties. " 。"Xu Jingming nodded, "But with a population of billions in China, their numbers in the God-level will continue to increase." 。"

There are now nearly five thousand demigods. There was a rough estimate before.

" 。“Wang Yi said, 'Similar to you guys, and me, those who have had professional training, there are less than two thousand people.' " 。All the rest are amateur fighters, which means... now that there are more amateur fighters than professional ones among the top-tier masters!

"In the past, there were already fewer professional martial artists..." 。Xu Jingming said, "Over the past thirty years, there have only been around 300 male and female national team martial arts athletes." 。"Master, Master!" A handsome young man suddenly shouted from afar and ran over. 。"Hmm" Xu Jingming saw the other party and looked carefully, "Little Fatty, you've lost weight"

The handsome young man ran over excitedly, "Master, I practiced the Yingbao Evolution Method, the weight loss effect is particularly good, look, much more handsome, right" 。Many girls from my class back then are now chasing after me, haha, they just dream! Now, I Páng Yùn, have the qualifications to choose. 。Let me introduce myself. 。Xu Jingming smiled at his teammates, "This is a disciple I had when I was in Binhai. My disciple is a little chubby and lazy." 。Unwilling to train his body, he held a very light spear and only practiced swordsmanship with me. 。One-on-one tutoring, I've been learning from him for three years. My marksmanship, he's learned about 50 to 60 percent of it. 。He chose right. 。Wang Yi said, "Now that there is an evolutionary method, the body can naturally evolve to its limit." 。Only one thing matters, gun skills. Now, it's nearly impossible to get Xu Jingming to personally teach you gun skills. 。"Yeah, I made a killing! I even reached the God level yesterday!" 。"Páng Yùn was delighted. "I immediately flaunted it in our high school class group chat and then tried my best to recruit some top players, putting together a team." 。No matter what, this is the first time for Xia Guo's National Cup... I Pang Yun also participated. 。"

Pang Yun, come on!" 。Xu Jingming said. 。"Master, I'm definitely not going to pass the preliminary round." 。But Master, you must keep going! 。"Pang Yun clenched his fist, "Even if I can't beat Liu Hai, Lei Yun, or Master Fang, I have to at least get third place!" 。Just shut up. 。"Wishing me third place, is that congratulations" Xu Jingming kicked him on the butt. Pang Yun laughed and ran away: "Master, I'm eliminated, I'll definitely watch your livestream and give you a tip." 。

Pang Yun ran to the distance and met up with his teammates. 。"One-on-one private lessons, and you've been doing them for three years" Heng Fang exclaimed in surprise. "Your time is precious, isn't it I remember at the fighting gym, you rarely had time to teach your disciples." 。"This was entrusted to me personally by Senior Brother Fang Xinglong." 。"Xu Jingming said, “Moreover, the annual private tutoring fee is in the seven figures.” 。As soon as the words were spoken. 。The space began to hum with sound. —

“The preliminary rounds are about to begin, countdown, 10, 9, 8…”

All the teams in the preparation space fell silent. At the end of the countdown, all the teams instantly vanished, being sent to the qualifying battle arena. 。miao's talent should have made her a god-level player. 。After all, the virtual world provides an excellent training environment. 。The fact is, Li Miaomiao, my girlfriend, only has decent talent in m...
