"Let's go back to the competition venue of the freshman competition. That's right, although we selected the top 10,000 contestants for the individual competition the day before yesterday, in order to successfully enter the finals the day after tomorrow, we must determine the top 32 contestants."
If any third-year students were present, they would certainly know what happened in the previous two freshman competitions. That's right, it was a cooperative competition!
SSS-level contestants are not invincible. At least in the first two editions, the final champions of our freshman competition were all S-level contestants. This is because during the main competition, these SS-level and SSS-level ability users were all targeted and defeated in the competition.
Although it looks like an individual competition, it is actually a different kind of irregular team competition. Unfortunately, the players in the individual competition will not be grouped together.
As for whether they will join forces or fight alone, let's wait and see!
Fu Zirui briefly introduced what happened in the previous freshman competition, and then Zhou Xuexue made a final confirmation. Not long after, accompanied by the referee's whistle, a series of teleportation portals were opened at the entrance.
"Once we step through this portal, we'll be separated. I've heard the school has a sophisticated algorithm to maximize the separation of students between classes, so we'll likely have a hard time meeting in the early stages. Good luck to everyone!"
Bu Xiaosai raised an eyebrow and looked at the portal in front of him.
"Let's go! We're just here to have some fun in the individual competition anyway, and we can also check out the strength of those SS-level players."
Liu Shenjun took the lead and rushed in, followed by Liu Lang and Xiao Dai, who nodded to Bu Xiaosai and entered the competition venue.
Thump!
Liu Lang opened his eyes, and the space in front of him changed. He was teleported to an unfamiliar place. In front of him was a lake, and behind him was a large forest. Hmm... this seems to be a park?
Liu Lang looked at the repaired bluestone road and the benches by the roadside, and then found the large sign for the competition map.
Am I in the bottom right corner? What does this circle mean?
Liu Lang stroked his chin, then his pupils suddenly widened in shock. Holy crap? The poison circle?
The lower right corner is not surrounded by the circle, which is located slightly to the upper left of the center. This means that Liu Lang needs to move towards the upper left.
So...no wonder there were rumors before the competition that, apart from the batch of freshmen under Mentor Wei Sha who graduated every four years, in the previous freshman competitions, there were basically no S-level or higher contestants among the top 32.
Just after Liu Lang rounded the lake, he saw a B-level ability user sitting in a chair, and at that moment both of them noticed each other.
"I'm lucky. Although I can't make it to the finals, it's good to improve my ranking. Sorry, classmate."
The B-level ability user unleashed white lightning, and the ground was covered in puddles. If he wasn't careful, he could even kill an S-level ability user.
Does it have environmental advantages?
Liu Lang stretched out his right hand and conjured a giant hammer in the air, which stunned his opponent.
Holy crap? Wasn't this guy taking a weapon out of his spatial ring?
Is it formed by supernatural abilities?
This move immediately made the B-level ability user in front of him lose confidence. However, he had been gathering his strength ever since he saw Liu Lang, and the arrow was on the bowstring, ready to be released.
He made his move after a five-second standoff.
"A flash of lightning!"
"Holy crap? Pokémon?"
Liu Lang watched as he charged towards him with his speed increased dramatically and the water's paralyzing effect made him appear to be on top of him in the blink of an eye, about to attack Liu Lang!
We won!
That's what the B-level ability user thought. After all, he was only an F-level ability user. It seems he was overthinking things.
His face immediately froze, because the attack had failed to penetrate Liu Lang's defense!
"Tsk tsk, is this what real-time casting is?"
Suddenly, Liu Lang's giant hammer transformed into half-body armor, and with a rang out, a powerful hammer strike slammed into the rear.
The B-level ability user dodged backward in a hurry, but the giant hammer continued to strike downward with all its might.
It's an area-of-effect (AOE) attack!
One instance of passivity leads to passivity everywhere.
He could have used his speed and environmental advantages to slowly wear down Liu Lang, but he was directly trapped in a dead end. After the twenty-fourth strike, his supernatural energy became unbalanced, and he was hit by Liu Lang and forced to leave the competition field.
"Wonderful! Although we don't know why contestant Liu Lang has such superhuman strength, since his special ability should be Divine Craftsman, everyone has also noticed from the battle just now that during Liu Lang's battle, his weapon can change into other forms at will."
This student clearly underestimated Liu Lang's F-level superpower. This serves as a reminder to everyone: never underestimate any superpower, and never underestimate anyone.
Fu Zirui broadcasts the overall situation, occasionally interjecting with commentary on the battlefield, while Zhou Xuexue focuses on specific individuals, such as SSS-level and SS-level ability users, and now, F-level ability users as well.
The mentors and classmates watching the broadcast couldn't help but look at Liu Lang and his group with new respect. They had managed to avoid being eliminated so quickly, which showed that Director Wei Sha had a reason for it.
Not long after Liu Lang's battle ended, Liu Shenjun, Bu Xiaosa, and Dai Shanren also encountered their respective opponents. However, Liu Shenjun... well, it's hard to say whether he was lucky or unlucky, because he encountered an SS-level ability user—Lan Hao.
Compared to the A-level and C-level ability users the other two encountered, this SS vs. F battle was clearly more worthy of Zhou Xuexue's broadcast.
