[Player #Gypsy King vs #Voldemort006!]
In Version 1, despite the fact that in Planet Darvis, the Elentalist Academy and Summoner Academy had more prestige than the Pugilist Academy, not a lot of players were attracted to the forr 2 main classes.
The reasoning for most of the players was simple.
"Pugilists are much cooler!"
Elentalists were flashy, being able to deal different types of AOE damage from a distance. It was also cool being able to play a Summoner where you could sit at the rear while conveniently sending and commanding beasts into battle.
Despite the ingenuity of both main classes and the unique experience that followed it, it still could not trump the appeal of the Pugilist class to the players.
One of the appeals of VR gas was the fact that players could almost feel everything like it was real. This made lee battles much more real and exciting, and the Pugilist class was the one who embodied lee combat the best.
"Few feelings eclipse the mont as my fist sink into my opponent's flesh".
"Throwing attacks from a distance is flashy and all that, but nothing beats skin for skin, Pugilist is the main class of the big n".
"Elentalists and Summoners are for kids".
Despite Legolas' subtle propaganda to entice more players to beco Summoners to increase his profit, not even the prospects of enjoying the benefits of this hidden NPC were able to beat the appeal of being a Pugilist.
This was why in the first ever National Dominator Cup Tournant, most of the participants in the individual battles were dominated by Pugilists.
The first 2 battles were all between Pugilists, Voldemort006 beca the first player to break this paradigm, this gutsy player was an Elentalist.
Of course, the Gypsy King was a Pugilist.
"You shall be the first that shall die to the supremacy of AOE combat".
"Shut up!" The Gypsy King's tongue was more poisonous than a viper's.
As soon as he spoke once, he equipped his pair of boxing gloves before charging towards his opponent with incredible montum. Despite the insulting words from his opponent, Voldemort006 only scowled, he didn't lose his cool.
He smirked before focusing on his legs. "I'll teach you to be humble".
"Gadget Ability: Gravity Boots!"
Instantly, the player's originally unassuming boots beca engulfed by a bright blue glow. The spectators were surprised, this was when they confird that this player was the first to bring an Enchanted gadget.
Voldemort006 didn't stop at that, he brought out his Elentalist staff.
Then the next mont, this rich player levitated into the skies under the ability of his Enchanted boots. In the skies, the Gypsy King was totally neutralized, this Pugilist didn't have long-ranged abilities to reach him in the skies.
"Here marks your end in the tournant".
Voldemort006 spamd all his Elentalist abilities.
The Gypsy King tried his best but his class limited him too much, he was unable to land a single attack on his opponent before his health bottod up.
"…"
"…"
"….."
This was the fastest and most one-sided battle since the start of the tournant, the spectating players were all left speechless.
[Winner: Voldemort006!]
After 3 individual battles on the first day, the individual fixtures for that day finally ca to an end but what followed was much more exciting to the players.
What followed was the first clash of the pro teams.
[First Team Battle Fixture:]
[Team Blue Autumn vs Team Roaring Tiger!]
"Yayyy!!!" The spectating players went loose!
"You're my hero!"
"I love you Henry! You're the best Sword God!"
"Henry, please marry !"
"I want to carry your kids!"
The ridiculous fanatism and enthusiasm of the players was really demonstrated at this mont as so of their idols were finally about to enter the stage for the very first tournant since Dominator's launch.
It was not surprising that most of the players were all over the Sword God, but he was not the only player who had fans here.
"Tiger King! I love you! You can do this!"
"Beat the Sword God and his barking dogs!"
At another side, a new na was heard.
"Ghost Sentry, we love you!"
"You can do this, we gat you!"
As they walked to the battle arena, Ghost Sentry felt overwheld. Looking around him at the players who were present physically, who either hated or cheered him on, and knowing that more were watching, he felt contented.
'I did it'. He soliloquized absentmindedly.
'I fulfilled my dream, I made it into a professional team'.
'I can't believe I'm about to make my debut alongside the Sword God'.
Despite fighting countless battles in-ga alongside the Sword God already, when it ca to the professional battles, the pressure finally got to him.
Even as he slowly freaked out inside, he suddenly felt a firm hand pat him. He turned to look only to see the familiar funky-styled hair waving to a nonexistent wind, this sight alone made his heart at peace first.
The Sword God's azure eyes looked at him. "Stay calm".
"Don't freak out, just be yourself".
"Follow my lead, free yourself and fight to your own satisfaction". The Sword God radiated total confidence as he spoke.
It was not much but this was exactly what Ghost Sentry needed, he nodded firmly. "I will, thanks Captain".
The Sword God smiled before finally looking up at their opponents.
Unlike the Blue Autumn Team, the Roaring Tiger team was not as much of a local na in the Chinese ga community. It was a new club that started recently, it achieved so much fa mainly because of its owner and captain.
The Tiger King was the owner and also the captain of this ga club.
By pumping in a lot of money to its developnt, he was able to recruit a lot of skilled players to round up his team to a competitive state.
This was their 3rd professional stage to prove their ttle as a big Chinese ga club. Qualifying to this level was already an achievent but to all the teams that qualified, they had a lingering ambition to go even further.
The only obstacle to them was that their first opponent was arguably the current best professional VR ga team in China.
The Blue Autumn Team being fixtured to fight on the first day was not a fluke, the best team starting on the first day was a great way to hype the tournant.
The Tiger King was motivated to try his best though. "Co on guys, we can do this, let's give them a run for their money".
When the fight finally started, things didn't exactly go according to their plan.
"Combination Attack: Continuous Attacks: Ghost and Rain!"
Ghost Sentry's debut on the professional scene was explosive!
Combining with the Sword God, they provided an unforgettable spectacle for all the spectating players. This was exactly what they ca to watch.
With the Sword God's light sword striking with a speed akin to that of light, raining attacks on the enemies, and with Ghost Sentry's saber attacking from the dark like a ghost stalking humans in the night, the enemies were suppressed!
This powerful display enabled the other 3 pro players of the Blue Autumn team to be unleashed, they cornered the enemies from behind.
Despite the Tiger King's impressive display, he could not turn it around alone.
The Sword God's light sword cut him into fragnts of white light.
On his debut, Ghost Sentry managed to kill 2 enemy players!
This was a debut performance for the history books.
[Winner: Blue Autumn Team!]
At the end of the battle, the avid fans were going crazy.
"Henry! You're my love forever!"
"I want your light sword deep inside baby!"
"I love you Ghost Sentry!"
"Damn, they didn't even their substitute player to win!"
Amid the explosive cheers, Ghost Sentry basked in his first victory.
He smiled. 'Winning feels nice…'
