After a simple breakfast of nutrient solution, the two of them played with the little guy who was in a bad mood for the whole morning and took him out for a walk. In order to take care of the little guy's mood, lunch was a very rich meal.
After dinner it was time for practice and nap as usual. Auckland and the two fur balls, one big and one small, spent another very harmonious afternoon.
Auckland felt that he only needed to practice for a few more days to reach the eighth level of the Qi Refining Stage, and should be able to advance before the next round of team competition, where he should be able to perform better.
Another day passed, and it was time for a new round of individual competition. This time the format was a one-on-one elimination competition. The five hundred contestants who emerged from the mixed elimination competition would be narrowed down to fifty in today's competition.
Each contestant will be randomly matched against three other contestants based on their points ranking from the previous round. The loser will be eliminated and the winner will continue. After the three matches, the top 50 contestants with the highest win rate in this round will advance.
With a one in ten winning rate and a high-intensity game rhythm, the elimination intensity of this round can be said to be unprecedentedly strong.
The top ten players with the highest points in the previous round have the right to win the first game directly, which means they only need to continue two games and win to advance directly. All four members of the Silver Wing Team are included in this list.
After all, the ten people with the highest points in the previous round were all from the mixed elimination tournament. They eliminated the most opponents, which indirectly proved their strength. No one would object to their privilege of winning the first round without fighting.
The competition started soon. Except for the top ten contestants with the highest points, the other 490 contestants started one-on-one battles, and George was naturally among them.
When Hall saw George Campbell's name appear on the big screen, he couldn't help but switch the screen when he saw that he had only 30 points and was placed in Group 59. This was the first time he noticed this younger brother from Auckland.
He looks decent, but from his body shape to his appearance, he has almost no resemblance to Auckland. Auckland is a gentle and polite person, nothing like this guy who frowns and looks bitter and resentful. I wonder if someone owes him millions of star coins.
"Hey, there's a Campbell here too. Could he be Auckland's brother?" Diana was also bored watching the big screen. She saw this familiar name at a glance and turned her attention to George.
"What brother? It's my younger brother." Chris curled his lips.
"What? Such an old brother?"
"Of course he is. He's in the same grade as his brother." Chris winked at Diana.
At that time, Auckland's mother Lisa had just passed away, and her body was still warm, and Auckland was still an infant, but Edmund quickly married Myrna, and George was born two months later. There were many tricks involved, and this incident almost became a laughing stock in the upper class at that time.
If it weren't for Oakland's grandfather, Carter Williams would not have intervened in this matter and allowed the young Hall to get engaged to Oakland, who was still a baby.
"Hey, if the eldest brother hadn't been engaged to Auckland, Auckland might have been killed by his disgusting stepfather and stepmother." Diana had seen a lot of dirty things in such big families.
"That's right." Chris said in deep agreement, "This kid's mother is quite powerful. I don't know how she hooked up with the Percy family and even arranged a marriage for him with General Arnold's only son, Ivan Percy."
"Wow, the Campbell family has a pretty good plan, right? Their two sons are engaged to the sons of two generals. No matter which general becomes the emperor in the future, their family will definitely benefit from it."
"It's a pity that Oakland had a falling out with the Campbell family not long ago. I'm afraid they won't be able to take advantage of our boss's influence in the future." Chris gave a wicked smile.
"Hahaha, that's great. When they find out that the son they despise the most is actually the famous Lancelot, I wonder if they will be so angry that they vomit blood?" Just thinking about Diana made her feel happy.
"That's right!" Chris agreed.
"Wait, if this George is in the same grade as Auckland, then why didn't I see him during the weekend assessment in Arnoldo?" Diana thought she had a good memory. If George was there, she would definitely remember him.
"Yeah..." Chris also remembered that George's name was not on the list of students who registered.
When Hall heard this, his eyes flashed and he looked at George with a bit of hostility. He had long been sure that the final exam was actually a complete trap. George, as a freshman, did not participate in this exam that was bound to lead to accidents. There must be something wrong!
"Go and find out the truth about this matter." Hall said coldly.
"Yes, Boss!"
"If this guy falls into your hands later, don't hold back." Hall will never let this man have the chance to advance, nor will he give him any face, and will definitely make him lose miserably.
"Absolutely no problem, Boss." Chris said eagerly.
"But I think it's uncertain. Look how hard he's fighting. He clearly has three elemental emblems, so why is he fighting so poorly?" Diana curled her lips. "I don't think he can even make it through the first round."
"Do you think everyone's emblems are as high quality as Auckland's? His elemental emblems were probably made by his fiancé. That guy is just an embroidered pillow. He looks powerful, but he's actually useless." Chris said disapprovingly.
In reality, their standards had been raised by Oakland. Even though Alvin's emblem wasn't particularly high quality, it was still an elemental emblem, and people would still scramble for it. However, once compared to Oakland's emblem, Alvin's emblem was no longer attractive.
Several people watched George's fight and commented on him, criticizing him for all his shortcomings.
"You said this guy is just a freshman, how could he think of running to participate in the Rookie Mecha Competition?" The age limit for the Rookie Mecha Competition is 25 years old. He can wait for another three years to accumulate more experience before coming back. Wouldn't he have a greater chance of winning?
"He's so self-righteous. He probably thinks he's so great."
Chris's guess was actually pretty close to the truth. George had been praised since childhood by the good-for-nothing 'Oakland.' After testing positive for A-level physical and mental strength and entering the Federation's premier military academy with excellent grades, he became a true genius. With so much praise, George truly considered himself a genius and went to great lengths to participate in this competition, just to prove his abilities.
It’s a pity that things don’t go as planned…
Even with the three elemental emblems of ice, fire and wind in use, George was still suppressed by his opponent. His opponent was ranked 152nd and had rich combat experience. Even without the help of the elemental emblems, he could use his excellent combat skills and superb combat awareness to fight.
Now the damage rate of the mechas of both sides has reached about 50%, which can be said to be comparable.
"Heh, even with three elemental emblems, I can't beat someone who only has one speed-enhancing emblem. How shameful."
"I think he might win." Ignaz suddenly spoke, not because he was optimistic about George, but because he was stating a fact.
Now the two of them were engaged in a war of attrition, to see who had more energy and could last longer. George's three emblems were slightly better than the other's.
Sure enough, the result of the battle was just as Ignaz had guessed, ending with George's tragic victory. Chris really felt sorry for his opponent.
When the first game was over, the contestants' names reappeared on the big screen and were randomly combined.
When Ignaz saw his name appear at the same time as George Campbell, he smiled rarely.
very good.
