Chapter 669: Chapter 669: The Second Round
Although the Starfire Guild is small, apart from Li Yao, there are still five teams that advanced to the second round. One of these teams even ranked in the hundred-plus spots, which would be a comndable score for many top-tier guilds in Hua Xia.
Among them, the student team ford by Da Vinci and her classmates made a strong entry into the qualifiers.
Their score was only second to the ten-person team ford by the newcor Mu Zi. This passionate student group pooled their best equipnt and selected ten worthy mbers from among themselves.
Newcor Mu Zi’s team was composed of players who were part of the first wave to join Starfire. They were core team mbers who sincerely considered Starfire as their ho within the ga.
The remaining three teams were composed of newcors who joined the guild recently.
These three teams represented the new generation and demonstrated that they were not weaker than those who joined the guild earlier.
Before setting off, Li Yao briefed them on simple tactics and equipped them with corresponding items.
However, these players refused the items. Newcor Mu Zi said, “The guild’s warehouse is already well-stocked, and we have received too many concessions. We won’t take these items.”
“I know you all have prepared your own things. What’s behind is what the guild prepared for you,” Li Yao said. “Your advance to the next round is not only your glory, but also the glory of our guild. People may accuse of cheating if I make it to the next round, as I received the main storyline quest. But if you all make it to the final round, we can give those scoundrels a good smack.”
“Alright, we understand,” Da Vinci moved forward and picked up a backpack.
The others also ca forward and each picked up a backpack.
“Good, I’ve already talked to you about so strategies. I won’t say it again. The most important thing is the glider, which will determine whether you can advance to the next round. Choose a defense-friendly and attack-difficult outpost. I put so repair robots in the backpacks of your team leaders, which can repair so military items. Although they can’t fully repair them, it will boost your strength,” Li Yao gave his final instructions.
“The leader has thought of everything for you, so I hope you work twice as hard,” Sister Li joked. “The leader also prepared a reward. It was originally planned to be announced when you co back victorious. But I think it’s more appropriate to say it now.”
Li Yao helplessly said, “Let say it. I just blackmailed Edward. Therefore, I plan to use this money as the prize for this competition. Apart from the team I lead, the team that ranks the highest among the other five teams will receive a reward of one thousand gold coins and a one-level promotion for all mbers. The second and third teams will receive five hundred gold coins and a one-level promotion. The fourth and fifth will receive one hundred gold coins. This is the guild’s rewards for those who bring honor to the guild.”
A chorus of gasps…
Everyone’s eyes glowed. This reward was amazing.
Needless to say, the gold coins were very generous. Even with the guild credit discount, they were relatively wealthy but would only have one or two gold coins in cash.
If they pass the second round and rank first among the five teams, even with equal distribution, each person would receive one hundred gold coins. At present, credit points and ga coins were still exchanged for copper and silver coins.
Not to ntion, a one-level promotion for mbers, which not only represents better future benefits but also prioritizes them for housing allocation in the future.
The Starfire guild’s expansion to level 2 was ongoing. According to the vice president’s plan, the first batch of five hundred mbers would have their gaming houses.
The allocation was not based on who joined the guild earlier, but on their contribution and personal strength.
The rule of the Starfire guild, “The capable rise, the diocre fall,” had been established long ago. A selection and elimination chanism was in place every month.
Everyone in Starfire was in harmony, but the competitive spirit flared up under the stimulus of the rewards.
Soon, everyone returned to their respective squares.
Li Yao waited for the ti and casually chatted with Edward, who had arrived earlier.
Edward tried to pry out information from Li Yao indirectly, but Li Yao skillfully diverted the topic.
When the event ti arrived, Li Yao floated in the sea of clouds and once again pierced through the endless sea of clouds with his sword.
“Now that the ti has co, the plane channel will open soon. Let emphasize the rules once again. During the first fifteen minutes, all players must not kill each other, otherwise, depending on the severity of the violation, a certain percentage of military rits will be deducted when they’re tallied. Half an hour later, players may fight each other and vie for outposts or important items, but once a team has occupied an outpost, i.e., raised the Heaven’s Battle Flag, all players within the range covered by the flag must not fight each other. Lastly, all players will have ten resurrection opportunities. Use up all ten, and you’ll be teleported out of the battlefield. Being resurrected by a team mber’s Resurrection Technique only counts as half a resurrection. I hope you all rember that,” said Li Yao.
Li Yao tossed his Sword of Justice and declared, “Now, I announce that the trial of entering the Trial Ground begins.”
The Sword of Justice emitted countless golden lights, and a shadow of the Rune Sword appeared on each platform. As long as they were on the square, the team leaders had the right to choose to teleport.
Swish, swish, swish…
Countless teams rushed to teleport, disappearing one by one from the square.
Many spectating players saw that countless players, wrapped by the shadow of the sword, entered the airspace of the Trial Ground and then fell directly.
Most players scread out of fear, but more players had already surmised what was happening and had prepared parachutes.
They didn’t panic at all and directly activated their parachutes, pointing fingers and laughing at those screaming players.
However, they soon stopped laughing because after opening their parachutes, they began to drift with the wind.
Teams were quickly scattered by the wind and then landed on the ground.
Those with good luck landed in remote mountains or places with fewer monsters and began to search for their companions.
But those with bad luck landed directly in areas filled with monsters.
Countless players were instantly killed by the demons who were sleeping with their weapons at the ready. Many players began to curse, and Li Yao didn’t know how many tis he was cursed by others.
The spectators on the square couldn’t help but click their tongues. So wanted to go back to prepare more items, but they all received a prompt saying that leaving the square now ant giving up their qualifications.
With no other choice, more and more players chose to teleport.
Edward smiled and said, “We’re about to leave too. This ti, I’ll definitely surpass you.”
Li Yao replied, “People need to have dreams, but dreams are always charming.”
“We’ll see,” Edward chose to teleport directly.
Li Yao said, “Get ready, we’re about to teleport.”
Whoosh…
A golden sword light wrapped them and they entered the high altitude of the minor dinsion of the Trial Ground.
Everyone was falling quickly,
As the teleportation location was random, Li Yao imdiately summoned his Fire Eagle. The sight from the high altitude here differed from the outside.
Outside, one can adjust freely, but in this minor plane, everything below was blurry.
Only by summoning the Fire Eagle could Li Yao use it to observe the conditions below and find a suitable location…
