Chapter 619 Come here, Zhang Yu
Because the four Tianmo schools fell far behind in the previous team competition, they received fewer qualifying spots, accounting for just over 30% of the 55 students present. Meanwhile, the four Wanfa schools, thanks to their lead in the previous team competition, secured over 60% of the qualifying spots.
Zhang Yu's eyes swept over Kuang Tianqing and the student standing beside her, thinking to himself, "Aside from Kuang Tianqing, Yan Xiang, who ranked first at Netherworld University, Mu Qiansi, who ranked first at Hehuan University, and Di Lianzhong, who ranked first at White Bone University, have all advanced."
However, Zhang Yu was not surprised by this. After each school team obtained the qualification to advance according to the ranking of prisoners in the previous game, each school would choose the candidates to advance on its own. The first place of these four demonic schools must be selected.
The next moment, a projection from the spiritual world emerged in the air, and as the names of the contestants popped up one by one, they gradually formed a personal ranking of the top 11.
"The first place is Dao Qiankun, who captured 7 people."
"The second Heavenly Saint Worker, captured 6 people."
"The third one is Kuang Tianqing, who captured 5 people."
…
Zhang Yu looked at the rankings and thought to himself, "Is this the individual ranking based on the number of prisoners captured in the last team match? If the number is the same, the one who captured the prisoners first will be ranked first."
Because it is related to the number of captives, the four schools of Tianmo suffered a great loss in the last game, so the top 11 players are again in the majority from the four schools of Wanfa and in the minority from the four schools of Tianmo.
Looking at the names on the rankings, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "These people...are almost all well-known and talented players from their respective schools."
The top three of each of the top ten universities have extremely strong strength and are the aces at the top of the contempt chain.
But as the Top Ten League progressed and the elite players from each school gathered, even after one elimination game, there were still 27 ace players from each school on the scene.
There were 27 geniuses who were once high and mighty in every school and stood above thousands of students. They gathered together, giving people the illusion that there were as many geniuses as dogs.
But illusion is just an illusion. Compared with the huge group of college students (including junior college students), these 27 people gathered here are just a very small number of people standing at the top of the pyramid.
Although the ranking is based solely on the number of captives captured by individuals, and does not represent the true overall ranking of the players' strength, these top 11 players are certainly the ones that all schools have high hopes for.
Zhang Yu thought to himself, "So what's the point of revealing this ranking? Does it have anything to do with the upcoming competition?"
In a blink of an eye, as the names of the top 11 players were listed, the rules of the second game also emerged.
Zhang Yu took a quick look and a hint of understanding emerged in his mind: "The second game is a competition between the team competition and the individual competition."
Looking at the rules, Zhang Yu mentally concluded, "The top 11 players will become captains and will select teammates from the remaining 44 players, forming 11 teams of five players each."
"These 11 teams will then compete in a relay race, and the top six teams will all advance to compete in the final."
Looking at the relay, Zhang Yu fell into deep thought again: "If we want to advance in this competition, it is very important for the captains to know how to select and allocate players."
In Zhang Yu's eyes, the specific contents of the five relay events emerged.
"The first task is to defeat the siege of 18 powerful gods and demons in a row, break through to the target location as quickly as possible, and hand over to the next contestant."
"Then the second one is moving mountains, the third one is sneaking, the fourth one is racing in water, and the last one... changing the celestial phenomena."
"The time spent on the final five events will be added together, and the six teams that took the least time will advance."
Looking at the contents of these five relay races, Zhang Yu was also thinking about which event he was best at and most suitable for.
After giving the 11 captains half an hour to think, the selection process began.
Starting from Dao Qiankun who is ranked first, the 11 captains will select one player to join the team in turn, and then start from Dao Qiankun to select the second player, until all the players have been selected.
Under the gaze of everyone present and the anticipation of countless live viewers, Dao Qiankun smiled and waved towards Zhang Yu: "Come here, Zhang Yu."
Zhang Yu didn't seem surprised at all. He walked towards Dao Qiankun calmly and stood behind him.
But Dao Qiankun's choice was beyond many people's expectations, and many contestants looked surprised.
An Zhen Zhenjun, who was watching the game, also frowned slightly and thought to himself, "Why did he choose Zhang Yu as the first pick?"
"Zang Shenyu focused on defense in the last match and didn't capture many prisoners personally. He just happened to not make it into the top 11, so he became the captain..."
He looked at Zang Shenyu among the 44 people present, and felt that this number one student of King Kong University was the most worthy of first-hand selection in terms of strength and financial resources.
On the other side of the competition field, Jiu Tianliu, one of the 11 captains, thought to himself, "Although Zhang Yu's advertising quotation ranking has risen to third place, this is just his popularity, not his strength."
Jiu Tianliu looked at the other contestants present and thought to himself, "At least among the contestants present, there are quite a few who are definitely stronger than Zhang Yu, and several of them even have absolute advantages in these five relay events."
"This first-hand selection opportunity was wasted on Zhang Yu. Is Dao Qiankun too confident? Or too careless?"
At the same time, the second-ranked captain, the top-ranked Tianshenggong from Xianbing University, smiled and said to Dao Qiankun beside him: "Since that's the case, I won't be polite."
Tian Sheng Gong looked at Zang Shenyu and said, "Old friend, come to my team."
Next, as the captains selected their players one by one, Dao Qiankun's team quickly gathered 5 people.
Zhang Yu glanced at his teammates. Apart from him and Dao Qiankun, the remaining three were Yan Qianji, Wen Rongjue, and Li Shiwei.
As the third best student in the school and the first in the weapon refining department, Yan Qianji's strength is naturally unquestionable.
Li Shiwei is ranked second in the Taoism Department, and Wen Rongjue is ranked third in the Finance Department. They both have impressive strengths.
After the selection is completed, it is time to assign events, and each team will arrange its own players to participate in different events.
Dao Qiankun said calmly, "The last of the five relay events requires changing the celestial phenomena. I will be responsible for this stage. Tell us which one you would like to be responsible for."
Yan Qianji said, "The first task is to break through 18 powerful gods and demons. I am quite familiar with these military-grade puppets, so I will be responsible for it."
Wen Rongjue smiled slightly and said, "I have learned more about concealing one's luck, so I will be responsible for the third item, stealth."
Li Shiwei, who ranked second in the Taoist magic department, said, "There are two levels left: one is moving mountains, and the other is racing in water. My Taoist magic is better at moving mountains, so I'll choose this one."
Listening to everyone's discussion, Dao Qiankun nodded slightly. This was similar to the arrangement he had in mind.
However, Dao Qiankun still looked at Zhang Yu and asked, "Zhang Yu, what do you think?"
After watching the specific content of each of the five relay events, Zhang Yu felt that he was best at moving mountains or racing in water.
Especially now that his Green Water Golden Crystal Armor has been pushed to level 20, his advantage in water racing has greatly increased.
Thinking of this, he nodded confidently towards Dao Qiankun and said, "Then I will be responsible for the fourth level of underwater racing."
After the five people reached an agreement, they reported the project arrangements and then went to different competition locations according to their respective instructions.
Zhang Yu looked at the map and thought to himself, "This five-event relay basically circles the entire floating continent."
"We five contestants have five different starting points..."
Zhang Yu soared into the sky, flying at high speed according to the guidance of the spiritual world that emerged from his eyes, breaking through the heavy air waves, and in the blink of an eye he arrived at a corner of the floating continent.
Looking at the shimmering, boundless water before him, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "What a huge lake! At first glance, it feels like I'm looking at an ocean."
"Is there such a place on the floating continent?"
"It's really... a huge project."
"How much did they spend on this game?"
At this moment, Zhang Yu even had a feeling in his heart that compared to players like them, the companies that contracted the stadium construction projects were the ones who really made money in the top ten leagues.
As Tian Kunlun's mountain-moving power began to work, Zhang Yu slowly landed on the coast with the sword box.
The beach in front of you is the starting point of the underwater race.
When Zhang Yu arrived, he found that many players had already arrived.
"Zhang Yu, are you also in charge of this level?"
Zhang Yu looked up at the message above his head and thought to himself, "4th place from Immortal Soldier University, Ling Pojun."
Zhang Yu still remembered that during the previous game, the opponent had tried to take advantage of his popularity and had a conflict with him, saying that the logistics department had nothing to do and why did he want him to build a laboratory.
Ling Pojun looked at Zhang Yu in front of him and thought to himself, "This guy is super popular right now."
"Although he's in the top three in popularity, his overall strength is definitely far from the top three. He's best at supporting. He was able to hold off Kuang Tianqing in the last match thanks to everyone's help, the formation, and the advance preparations..."
But... facing Zhang Yu's high popularity, how could Ling Pojun not come and take advantage of it?
However, Ling Pojun changed his approach this time. He looked at Zhang Yu seriously and said, "Junior, although we were comrades in the last match, we are competitors this time. I will not show any mercy."
"Let us fight with all our might and work together to achieve stronger and better results."
At this moment, accompanied by a dragon roar, a dragon shadow fell from the sky and landed on the beach.
"Zhang Yu, you're actually participating in this round? God is really helping me!"
Zhang Yu turned his head and saw a giant dragon over a hundred meters long staring at him with its dragon eyes.
Zhang Yu's eyes swept over the other person's head, and he thought to himself, "The second place in Tianyao University, the demon department Ying Zhoufan."
"Why does this name sound familiar?"
The next moment, Zhang Yu remembered that in the previous team competition, he met a high-level demon-blooded student named Ying Yufan who looked very much like a human.
Zhang Yu asked curiously, "What is your relationship with Ying Yufan?"
"That's my brother." Ying Zhoufan sneered, and his dragon eyes looked at Zhang Yu with cruel eyes. He said, "That guy didn't seize the opportunity to capture you when he met you in the last battle. What a useless guy."
In Ying Zhoufan's opinion, the last encounter with Zhang Yu, who was acting alone and had not yet started to deploy his formation or construction, was the best opportunity to capture the opponent.
But his useless younger brother wasted the opportunity.
"But this is fine."
Ying Zhoufan swung his dragon tail, blowing out a gust of wind that seemed to have created a storm on the coast.
He thought to himself, "Zhang Yu is already at the top of the list of people discriminated against by demons. Insulting him will earn me enough demon energy."
"He's so popular right now, it's just right for me to devour him completely in this one fight! I'll digest him completely!"
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became. His dragon eyes seemed to glow. "I will severely humiliate him, insult him, and completely trample on his dignity, turning him into my traffic and popularity."
