Upon hearing this rule, almost everyone looked surprised and then subconsciously glanced at the people around them.
Many people on the playground looked surprised; some frowned in thought, while others looked disdainful.
"Tch, I thought it was some special rule, making it sound so mysterious!"
In the camp of the neighboring Songcheng High School, a young man wearing a baseball cap smiled and shrugged: "Isn't it just a battle royale?"
Linnaeus remained silent and continued to listen quietly.
The principal of Kyoto University ignored the noise from the playground below and continued coldly, "Now I will explain the specific rules."
"The area covered by this barrier is approximately ten square kilometers."
"This is your area of activity. The competition will last for three days, or seventy-two hours."
"In a little while, all of you will receive a small bead like this in your system mailbox."
As the principal of Kyoto spoke, he raised his right hand, holding a large, azure bead the size of a ping-pong ball: "This bead is your life bead for this round. You cannot put it in the system space inventory; you can only carry it with you somewhere on your person."
“Once this bead is destroyed, your ‘life’ will be over, and you will be eliminated directly.”
"Snap!" the Kyoto principal said, crushing the bead in his hand.
"Similarly, as long as you defeat an enemy and crush their life orb, your kill points will increase by one point."
"After 72 hours, those who survive will advance to the next round. And your points will affect your subsequent matches."
Listening to the principal of Kyoto University speak, Hua Lingze rested her finger on her chin and pondered, "It really is a battle royale..."
In this way, it is no longer a matter of pure strength.
There will definitely be many weaker players who are good at escaping and hiding, and they will survive to the next round by "playing it safe".
However, if you don't "kill" anyone, even if you manage to survive to the next round, without any points, the subsequent matches will likely be very difficult.
"What I just said was only the basic rules for this round. I haven't finished yet."
The principal from Kyoto University continued, giving a cold laugh: "You should be very familiar with the rules of this battle royale, right? Well then, let's talk about something different."
"In a moment, all of you will be assigned by the computer to teams of three, and you will cooperate to survive as a team."
The principal of Kyoto University said with a playful expression, "At the same time, in order to make the competition proceed faster, we will issue special tasks to the teams through the system. If the task cannot be completed within the specified time, then all members of the entire team will be eliminated!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Nai frowned slightly.
Many students present were also dissatisfied with this rule.
"Why do you need to team up with others?"
"What if I get two useless teammates?"
"Exactly! I don't want to be dragged down by two good-for-nothings!"
"If the team is surviving, how are the points earned from killing enemies calculated?"
Principal Kyoto stood on a platform several meters high, but his hearing seemed to be excellent. He heard some students' complaints and said calmly, "When a team kills an enemy, everyone on your team will receive a kill point, so there's no need to worry about splitting the points with your teammates."
Upon hearing this, the discontented voices of the athletes on the playground gradually subsided.
Their purpose in coming here is to advance towards the final round, to secure better cultivation resources and prizes for themselves, not to make friends.
Who would willingly share points with a teammate they were assigned to?
"Does anyone else have any questions?" the Kyoto principal said. "Please ask them now."
There was a moment of silence. In the distance, a female student from Qingcheng University raised her hand and asked, "Are there any restrictions?"
The principal of Kyoto High School said, "The restriction is that you cannot kill other contestants. If you accidentally kill your opponent, you will be eliminated on the spot. Knowing how to control yourself is also part of the competition."
"Among our referees are the best healing superhumans in the country, and we have a 'sky eye' camera monitoring the condition of every contestant within the barrier, so as long as you're barely hanging on, we can bring you back to life, so there's no need to worry about getting injured."
"There are no restrictions on the items. Weapons and items that can be purchased on the official market, such as smoke grenades, stun grenades, trap tokens, and explosive tokens, can all be used in the competition."
After listening, the girl nodded and stepped back, having no further questions.
Upon hearing this, the white-haired, red-eyed, sinister-looking youth snorted coldly and said in a deep voice, "Tch, can't kill people? How boring..."
"Alright, your match will officially begin in half an hour."
The principal of Kyoto School said, "Now, you will all go to your respective assembly points according to the teams assigned to you by the system!"
......
Sky Eye Room.
Tang Hongshan, Lin Yuxi, Yewan'er, Lao Zhang and others watched the game here, which can be considered as their VIP seats as "family members".
Apart from the final round, which was broadcast nationwide, the earlier rounds were all conducted internally, with only university leaders and internal staff able to watch the entire competition.
"I didn't expect the first round to be a battle royale mode."
Lin Yuxi looked at the Sky Eye screen in front of her.
She was no stranger to this format; it seemed that one round of last year's freshman competition used this format, and she didn't expect it to be used in the first round this year.
Lin Yuxi added, "But I really don't understand why we have to form teams? Isn't this an individual competition?"
"Yeah, it's really strange. It's never happened before." Old Zhang frowned. "I don't know what the organizing committee is up to..."
"You will understand soon enough."
As Tang Hongshan spoke, he picked up the tablet in his hand, looked at the information that had just been transmitted to him, and said with a serious expression: "I just received this as well. It contains the real rules and details of this round of the competition."
