Chapter 148
The National Campus Competition League is the most popular, most participated, most rewarding and most valuable competition in the Great Xia Empire.
The entire league will be broadcast live, with an average of 100 million viewers for each regular season game, and the number of viewers for the finals can even exceed 500 million!
All the top guilds will offer extremely generous conditions to all the contestants who perform well in the league to recruit them.
It can be said that this league is not only a face-saving competition for major universities, but also the best platform for students to enter the top guilds.
When Zhang Yuan rushed to the gymnasium, the opening ceremony of the league had ended, and a blue vortex with a diameter of 100 meters appeared in the center of the gymnasium.
That was the audition copy specially constructed by the Ministry of Education of the Great Xia Empire for this league.
The schedule of the campus competition league is divided into two stages.
The first stage is divided into auditions.
In the auditions, all teams enter the same secret dungeon. The monster level in the dungeon is unified to level 35. Monsters will refresh infinitely after death. For every 1,000 monsters killed, a level 35 boss will appear in the dungeon.
The participating teams get 1 point for killing a monster in the dungeon, and 100 points for killing a boss. The monster-killing time for each team is unified to two hours. Only the top eight teams in the final points can enter the second stage of the knockout round.
After entering the knockout round, the top eight teams will be divided into groups according to the points ranking. The first will play against the eighth, the second will play against the seventh, and so on. The winner will enter the semi-finals, and the last two will decide the champion.
The three categories of five-person competition, three-person competition and single-player competition share the same competition system. The five-person team and three-person team auditions will be held in the morning of the first day, and the single-player auditions will be held in the afternoon. Finally, the top eight teams in the three categories will be decided.
After that, there will be five-person team knockouts, three-person team knockouts and single-player knockouts. Each category of competition will last for three days, and the entire schedule will be ten days in total.
At this time, the auditions have already begun, and teams from various universities are entering the vortex one after another. On the big screen above the gymnasium, the wonderful operations of the teams from various universities in the dungeon are still being broadcast, and there are also real-time points rankings of various universities next to them.
However, Zhang Yuan did not see the points ranking of Kyoto University on the big screen.
"They haven't entered the dungeon yet, it seems there is still time!"
Zhang Yuan glanced at the big screen and immediately rushed to the lounge of Kyoto University in the gymnasium.
At this time, the atmosphere in the lounge of Kyoto University was a little solemn.
Zhu Yongfu was making a phone call outside the lounge, his face was terribly gloomy.
At this time, there were only two people in the lounge.
One was Wang Haoran, Zhang Yuan's neighbor in dormitory 0 and a classmate of Jianxin College, and the other was Li Xueer, who replaced Zhang Yuan as a temporary substitute.
In theory, each participating team should have six people, five members of the main competition plus one substitute.
But now, of the six players from Kyoto University who were supposed to participate in the campus competition league, only Wang Haoran actually came to participate!
When Zhu Yongfu hung up the phone and walked into the lounge, Wang Haoran immediately stood up and asked, "Coach Zhu, what's the situation now? Lao Zhou and the others are really not coming back?"
Zhu Yongfu said in a deep voice, "Well, the four of them said they would withdraw from the competition no matter what, even if I threatened them with expulsion, it would be useless."
Wang Haoran: "What should we do? Can we find other people to participate?"
Zhu Yongfu: "We need to submit an application to the organizing committee to replace the participating team members. Even if we wait for the organizing committee to approve it, we can't get enough people for the two auditions of the five-person and three-person games in the morning."
Li Xueer frowned: "They suddenly withdrew from the competition at this time, which clearly shows that they want us to be eliminated in the auditions."
The campus competitive league is a highly watched competition, and Kyoto University, as the top-ranked higher education institution in China, is even more watched.
If Kyoto University is eliminated in the audition stage, it will definitely cause an uproar, and the reputation of the entire school will be seriously damaged!
Zhu Yongfu sighed, "As for their motives for doing this, we can only let the school investigate later. In this situation, we must give up the five-person team competition and focus on the three-person competition and the single-player competition."
"Wang Haoran, you have a dragon, and Li Xueer's profession is the Elf Saint. If the two of you cooperate well, you should be able to enter the top eight in the three-person dungeon. In the afternoon, Wang Haoran, you will go to the single-player dungeon and enter the single-player top eight. It won't be a problem."
"If we can achieve good results in those two categories of competitions, we can still restore some of our reputation."
Wang Haoran smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen just after the start of this competition. If Zhang Yuan was here, it would be great. With him, the three of us would have no problem getting first place in the five-person dungeon."Zhu Yongfu sighed, "Who made Zhang Yuan have such bad luck? It's the best outcome for him to be able to return to campus now. He has experienced such a big blow, and I can't force him to participate in the competition." "Teacher Zhu, I'm here!" At this time, Zhang Yuan's voice sounded at the door of the lounge, and the eyes of the three people in the room all lit up. Li Xueer stood up excitedly, "A Yuan!!!" Zhang Yuan nodded to Li Xueer, then glanced at the lounge, and couldn't help but wonder: "Why are there only three of you, where are the other players?" Wang Haoran spread his hands and said, "They all withdrew from the competition, now there are only three of us." "Withdrawn?" Zhang Yuan was stunned, "What's the situation?" Zhu Yongfu: "It is not clear why they suddenly withdrew from the competition, but it doesn't matter. Zhang Yuan, let me ask you, if you three are asked to play a five-person game, do you have the confidence to enter the quarterfinals? "
Zhang Yuan smiled and replied: "Teacher Zhu, don't worry. I can clear a level 35 team dungeon like this by myself. If I don't get the first place in the gap, my name will be written backwards!"
Zhu Yongfu's eyes lit up, "Are you so confident?"
"Of course!"
Zhang Yuan's answer was like a shot of adrenaline for Zhu Yongfu, making him excited again.
With Zhang Yuan, his position is likely to be saved!
At this time, the host's voice came from the lounge radio: "Kyoto University representative team, the entrance to the five-person dungeon will be closed in five minutes, please go to the dungeon in time to avoid missing the game."
Zhu Yongfu heard the words of the radio host, took a deep breath, and handed the Kyoto University uniform to Zhang Yuan, "Change your clothes, the reputation of Kyoto University depends on you to maintain."
"Yes. ”
Zhang Yuan went to the locker room to change into his uniform, and then went to the center of the gymnasium with Li Xueer and Wang Haoran.
Since Kyoto University has always been a popular school to win the championship, it has a very high level of attention.
When Zhang Yuan and the other two, wearing Kyoto University uniforms, walked to the entrance of the dungeon, the camera suspended in the air was aimed at them.
The big screen above the Phoenix Nest Gymnasium and the national live broadcast suddenly showed the images of Zhang Yuan and the other two.
The host immediately shouted: "The Kyoto University team has entered the field. Judging from the state of their five players, they must have already..."
The host was halfway through his words when he realized that only three players from the Kyoto University team came out, and he was embarrassed on the spot.
At this time, the audience also began to whisper.
"Why did Kyoto University only send out three people? Where are the other two people? Did they go to the toilet?"
"This audition dungeon has been open for more than ten minutes. Those who need to go to the toilet have already done it. They don't think this is a three-person audition, do they? ”
“Even such a small mistake can be made. Is this the Kyoto University, the favorite to win the championship? I think it is just a name!”
The host saw that the situation was a little out of control, and immediately showed his professionalism, saying: “Haha, Kyoto University is a veteran and strong team that often wins the league championship. They have never made mistakes. I guess they want to play a joke on us this time.”
“Everyone, please be patient. The other players of Kyoto University will soon…”
Before the host finished speaking, Zhang Yuan and the other two walked directly into the dungeon.
The host choked, and the whole audience started a commotion!
