My Elf Simulator

The provincial competition officially opened.

To be precise, it includes two provincial competitions, the Provincial A and the Provincial Super, which are highly anticipated by the whole province. For ordinary citizens in Hanquan, it is nothing more than a major celebration.

The road is decorated with lights and decorations everywhere, and elf elements related to the provincial competition can be seen everywhere. Shops have also launched various activities in due course.

Joint shirts and shoes of the players' elves; double packages for the competition; toys, figurines, etc.

Early in the morning, Hei Ze followed the Haitang team in neat blue and white uniforms, got on the bus and set off to the venue of the competition.

His photographer Huang Ge also professionally held the camera and filmed with the team. He was mainly responsible for shooting some video materials for later sorting and editing.

As for the live broadcast, it was the minibus following behind.

It is not only the manned minibus of the Dream Building Club, but also a broadcast vehicle. It is a small "TV station" on the vehicle with the characteristics of flexibility and large range of activities. It can remotely record and edit live.

Beside Kurosawa, the players of Haitang team were discussing the upcoming provincial A qualifying round.

Unlike last year, the first round of the qualifying round was held in the form of treasure hunting in the wild. The schedule was tight at that time because of the time squeeze of the core event such as the world competition.

There was no such unexpected situation this year, and the process was basically the same as in previous years.

They need to go to Xinchangchuan Center for a three-day provincial A qualifying round, and finally decide the 16 players who will enter the provincial A finals.

The only qualification for the provincial A finals is to go through the qualifying round, unlike the Haitang city league finals, which has a certain number of guaranteed places, resulting in a high intensity of the qualifying round.

For the vast majority of the hundreds of players who came to Xinchangchuan Center and are about to start the fierce competition, the three-day provincial A qualifying round is the highest hall they can reach in their lives, and it can be said to be their world competition.

When Kurosawa came to Xinchangchuan Center, he saw many people's faces full of excitement, rubbing their hands.

Many of them knew that they would not advance, but wearing their hometown team uniforms and fighting for the honor of their hometown still made them feel excited.

Every team, even the county-level city team, was followed by some media.

They obtained the approval of the provincial competition organizing committee and had the right to broadcast and report the content of this event. Most of them were official TV stations in various places or relatively large newspapers and online media.

The Haitang team where Kurosawa was located was no exception.

Reporters from the three major Haitang media giants, Haitang Official TV Station, Super Competition Haitang Branch, and Haitang People's Daily, carried equipment and surrounded the Haitang team that had landed.

"Please abide by the interview regulations, media friends." The staff of the Haitang team stopped the media to restrict the interview. The game was about to start, and it was not allowed to ask questions to the players at this time. Fortunately, the media that came had certain official media attributes and knew that this was not the time to interview, so they only filmed the players or asked some side questions to other staff members of the team.

Kurosawa looked at the camera that was focused on him, waved his hand, and his face looked very relaxed.

He knew without thinking that many people on the Internet were talking about him, supporting him and opposing him.

In the official online live broadcast room of the Begonia League, the number of people online has exceeded 300,000. The number of comments has been limited. There is a 2-minute interval between each person's comments, but even so, the comments are densely packed on the screen.

[Zebao is cute]

[Please support Zebao. If you don't support Zebao, you are not a Begonia person]

[Who are you talking about]

[Looks very relaxed, very confident. ]

There is no opening performance in the provincial A qualifying round.

Due to the large number of players participating in the competition, in order to facilitate the viewing experience of the audience of each city league and take into account fairness.

This competition is divided into four divisions.

The provincial capital Changchuan and the other three representative teams of Taixiang City, Jinliang City, and Guchuan City were assigned to the No. 1 seed pool.

Other third-tier city representative teams were assigned to the No. 2 seed pool and the county-level city No. 3 seed pool.

The teams from the No. 1 seed pool were assigned to four groups, ABCD, and the teams from the No. 2 and No. 3 seed pools were assigned to different groups according to the draw results.

Hundreds of players gathered in the square of the New Changchuan Center, staring at the real-time draw process shown on the big screen at the top.

The first thing to do was to draw the No. 1 seed pool.

The guests took out the balls from the transparent containers one by one, and showed the results inside the balls to the camera.

Area A: Jin Liang, Area B: Tai Xiang, Area C: Changchuan, Area D: Guchuan

When the results of the first round of draws came out, the players in the square had different expressions.

The four teams from the No. 1 seed pool were the least important. They were much stronger than the other teams, and they needed to worry about others.

"I hope we don't get drawn to Area C."

"AAAA, I feel that Jin Liang is the weakest on paper among the four teams."

"Please don't get Area C."

There were whispers from the members of the team around Kurosawa, and they were just a microcosm of the square.

The group of death is undoubtedly Group C where Changchuan is located. None of the remaining dozens of teams in the square want to enter this group.

Although for most players, they never expected to advance to the main draw, but at least they would not have to face so many powerful opponents in the qualifying stage. That way, even if they lose, they won't lose too badly in front of the fans of their own league.

The second round of drawing will soon begin, and the representative teams from the second seed pool will be divided into various divisions.

As the guest's hand reached into the second transparent container, Ji Qingwen beside Kurosawa also began to subconsciously become nervous.

"I hope we won't be drawn into Group C. I feel that with the configuration of our Haitang team, if we are assigned to a better group, we really have a chance to get a chance to qualify. A quarter chance should not be enough." So unlucky."

Kurosawa looked at him and was about to say something.

The special guest grabbed a new ball, opened the note inside, and announced to the camera: "Team Haitang enters Area C!"

When the results came out, the atmosphere of the entire Haitang team was obviously tense for a moment. They probably didn't expect that they and others would be assigned to the death group.

There was even more mourning in the Haitang live broadcast room.

[It’s over, it’s over, the group of death]

[That guest’s hands are really smelly. 】

【Unfair, unfair! 】

[To be honest, I originally thought that if the grouping situation was good, Akira Kurosawa and Aoko might be able to give it a try, so now I’m sending it directly]

[How can we compete with those monsters from Changchuan for four qualifying spots?]

[Relax, no one really takes Kurosawa’s joke seriously, it’s very blue and spicy]

【GG】

As teams were assigned to four divisions, some people in the square were sad and some were happy.

"Let's go to the venue and get ready."

Kurosawa patted Ji Qingwen's shoulder and motioned for him to follow the team.

"Why are you so calm?"

"It doesn't matter about drawing lots, right? There is no such thing as a good draw or a bad draw. If you are not strong enough, you will make a fool of yourself if you are lucky enough to advance, right?" Kurosawa shrugged.

"If you think about it on the bright side, this might not be a bad thing. There are many people paying attention to Changchuan. We are assigned to this group and we will get more shots."

This is indeed what Kurosawa is thinking. While others are worried about the grouping, he is a little happy.

Being grouped with Nagakawa means that the number of viewers watching their division will rise sharply, which will help him in his long-term achievement mission of accumulating the number of fans.

The Haitang team followed the flow of people into the venue where Group C was located.

This is a very large outdoor training ground with a large number of battle areas that can accommodate ten groups of matches at the same time.

Kurosawa glanced at the players around him. Including the Haitang team, there were about a hundred people.

After three days of repeated battles among these one hundred people, only four players will advance to the main competition.

The specific rule is to adopt a singles points system.

Intelligent AI pairs players with each other for a 1V1 battle. The winning side will score two points, the losing side will deduct two points, and both sides will not score points for a draw.

It is worth noting that after more than five consecutive wins, you can earn two extra points for each victory, that is, four points for each win. If the winning streak is interrupted, the bonus points will be cancelled.

Finally, the four with the highest scores on the list will be selected to advance.

Kurosawa followed the other players and listened silently to the introduction of the rules.

At the same time, I was thinking and analyzing in my heart.

"In this way, if you want to accumulate points quickly, you must strive for consecutive wins and try not to interrupt. Each interruption means that you need to accumulate five consecutive wins again before you can gain extra points."

His eyes wandered over the many players, and he noticed that among the crowd of the Changchuan representative team, there was one player whose psychic aura was significantly stronger than the others.

It seems that the only person in my half of the area is a master. Kurosawa blinked and thought.

Kurosawa's perception was quite good. Although the man did not release any obvious psychic energy fluctuations, as long as his spiritual energy level was lower than his, he could not escape Kurosawa's detection.

After the introduction of the rules, the intelligent AI program began to randomly match players to everyone, and then divided the battle fields.

One-fifth of the people entered the corresponding battlefield according to the matching.

No Kurosawa in the first round.

Since it is a 1V1 competition format, the battle will not last too long. If the game lasts for more than 12 minutes and there is no winner, it will be considered a draw.

About fifteen minutes later, the first round of competition ended, and the schedule was very tight, and then the second round began.

The list for the second round did include Kurosawa.

He came to the C-7 venue and met his opponent.

A third-tier city team, elite level, and a face-to-face male player.

The two reported to the referee's office, signed a declaration of integrity, and then entered the venue.

The elf sent by Blackpool is the Curse Crow.

With the energy value of 610 leaves of the Cursed Crow, it is basically difficult to encounter an opponent, not to mention the spiritual blessing of 875 points from Kurosawa. There is no need for the appearance of super elves in the qualifying stage.

Kurosawa and his opponent saluted each other, and at the same time threw out flash cards to summon spirits.

Half a minute later.

At the C-7 venue, with a crisp whistle, the game ended.

Facing an opponent with an energy value of more than a hundred leaves, Kurosawa did not give too many instructions and allowed the cursed crow to perform on its own.

However, the curse-casting crow probably felt that the opponent was weak, so with one move of splashing and retracting the crow feathers, the energy in the opponent's body was completely drained.

In fact, the fighting process does not take more than ten seconds, and the whole process is neat and tidy.

The referee confirmed the situation with Kurosawa's opponent, nodded to Kurosawa, and declared his victory.

"The first win will add 2 points."

Kurosawa glanced at the big screen, where his name had already appeared. Like the other first-round winners, he accumulated two points.

After the battle, Kurosawa returned to the team.

His companions who had been following his game gave him a thumbs-up to show their admiration. They expected Kurosawa to win, but they didn't expect the victory to come so quickly.

No wonder he was so confident before the game. His strength had reached a breakthrough compared to the winter game.

In the official live broadcast room of Haitang, the barrage was boiling, and people were excited.

Kurosawa's first game would of course be the focus of attention of his local photographers.

[I'm so strong]

[Instant kill! ! ! ]

[Be rational, brothers. The first opponent is relatively weak, so it is easier to win. If you encounter the old elites and those monsters of Changchuan, it will be difficult to fight. ]

[The rationalist is here again. You can't brag about crushing your opponent, right? ]

[Why haven't I seen this elf that Zebao appeared before?]

As time went by, the battle continued.

There were so many contestants on site, and the camera couldn't be focused on one person all the time.

Kurosawa didn't care about winning one or two games. He arrived at the corresponding venue on time for the game assigned to him.

After going through the general process, he defeated his opponent neatly.

Since there were many professional and weak elites on site, for strong players, the battles often went very fast.

In this way, Kurosawa started with a seven-game winning streak in the morning!

"Four more points."

After the battle, Kurosawa shook hands with his helpless opponent and looked up at the big screen.

Unknowingly, his name has slowly climbed up from the crowd.

Kurosawa (Haitang City): 18

Only a few people are left with the same 18 points as him.

Lunch break.

The players who were busy switching games, resting their elves, and adjusting their status in the morning finally had time to look up and observe the points on the big screen.

During the game, they had time to check their scores at most.

During the lunch break, they looked at their scores and looked at the top of the list with great interest.

"There are six players with 18 points and no losses!!"

"I'm so surprised. My score is so low."

"The monsters in Changchuan are so abnormal. All the players who won seven games in a row are from them!!"

"Huh? The fourth one doesn't seem to be one of them."

"Who is Hei Ze from Haitang City? How did he win in a row? Is he so strong?"

The players who observed the list easily found the only outlier among the undefeated players.

The other five players were followed by the suffix of Changchuan City, and only the player named Hei Ze was an exception.

"Do you know who he is?"

"I don't know."

"I don't know either."

"I seem to have some impression, but I can't remember where I heard it before."

Many people were puzzled, wondering why such a person suddenly appeared.

Some people looked bitter and praised Hei Ze's strength to their companions.

"He's quite strong. If we met him in the morning, we couldn't last more than a few rounds."

"Queshi is so strong that we can hardly resist him."

"He's lucky. If he meets the strongest players in Changchuan City, his winning streak will be interrupted." Some people also expressed their views sourly. "Just wait and see. We will meet him soon."

But no matter what, the undefeated record in the morning made Kurosawa enter the sight of the players in Zone C, the staff of the event group and the audience.

Presumably, in the afternoon, the official broadcast channel of Hanquan Province, which had not focused on Kurosawa all morning, would pay more attention to him.
