Chapter 1074

.

June 70th, 67: 55 AM and 5: 55 AM in the Summer of Summer.

The number of online players in the World of the Heroes had officially exceeded 67 million. All players in the World of the Heroes received a notification from the main system:

"Dear players, the first Martial Arts Tournament is about to begin. All participants will receive a Void Travel Token. Any players who wish to enter the first Martial Arts Tournament will be able to purchase an admission ticket and be teleported to the main venue. For detailed rules, please check the system information.

"The first round of the tournament will officially begin in ten minutes. A total of 66,242,872 players are present, and 83,654 players are absent. All players present will be randomly selected to fight in pairs. Players without a bye will advance directly and receive the victory reward. Players absent will have an eight-hour extension. If you participate in the tournament within eight hours, the system will automatically arrange your opponent. If you exceed eight hours, you will be considered to have forfeited.

"Countdown of ten minutes. After ten minutes, the main system will begin to teleport all participants. All participants, please prepare in advance!"

The main system of the World of the Heroes, or Izur, reminded all online players five times that the first round of the tournament was about to begin.

Ten minutes later, the first round of the tournament officially began. Nearly 67 million participants were teleported away by the main system under the gaze of a small number of spectators. They entered the Space Overlay Arena arranged by the main system.

Eleven minutes after the first round of the tournament began, all players finished their matches. Storm was unquestionably the winner. With half a Level 95 Legendary Equipment Set, Storm's combat power was very strong.

After the first round ended, the main system gave out nearly six million victory rewards. The victory reward was a lottery box. The lucky players even had a chance to obtain Epic equipment. The unlucky players might only obtain a consolation reward of one copper coin.

Of course, most of the players were not that lucky!

Only a small number of players did not choose to open the lottery box. Instead, they stored it away.

The second round of the tournament continued. Whether it was Izur's logical judgment or Shi Lei's subjective judgment, the second round of the tournament did not stop because of the absence of less than forty thousand players.

The 0,343,119 players who won the first round continued to the second round of the tournament. The interval between the second round of the tournament was reduced to three minutes.

The participants did not leave the Space Overlay Arena map. They were randomly assigned new opponents by the main system to continue the tournament in the Space Overlay Arena map.

The second round of the competition was obviously more intense than the first round, but only by a little. With more than ten million players being eliminated, the remaining players couldn't possibly be that good. Most of the participating players were only here to get the rewards.

However, even though it only increased the intensity of the match, it reduced the duration of the match to eight minutes. Eight minutes later, the number of players in the third round dropped to 7,494,887.

This was the number of victory reward boxes that needed to be given out in this round. Most players still chose to open the lottery box immediately. Just like the previous round, most of the players were unlucky.

However, in this round of the lottery, a lucky person had appeared! A player from the Southern Dynasty actually obtained a peerless shackle-grade saber, the Ash Tooth!

The equipment in the Hero's World was split into seven grades and twenty-eight grades. The seven grades were, from low to high, Normal, Excellent, Excellent, Shackled, Legendary, Epic, and Mythical.

Every rank was divided into four grades, which were Primary, Intermediate, Superior, and Peerless.

A peerless shackle-grade saber was only a hair's breadth away from Legendary equipment!

This lucky player from the Southern Dynasty was called Sir Jin. When the main system asked him if he wanted to hide his name and make a server-wide announcement, Sir Jin chose not to be anonymous.

A server-wide announcement was equivalent to an excellent advertisement!

Even if the Hero's World allowed players to use the same nickname, a server-wide announcement was still the best way to increase one's fame! How could Lord Jin be willing to make an anonymous server-wide announcement like he was walking in the night?

"Congratulations to player Sir Jin for opening the lottery box and obtaining a peerless shackle-grade equipment, the Ash Tooth!" Izur only made a server-wide announcement. The Ash Tooth was only a shackle-grade weapon. Even if it was peerless, even if it was only a hair's breadth away from Legendary equipment.

But shackles were still shackles!

Originally, the players were still complaining that the lottery boxes in the Hero's World were too stingy. But after hearing the system announcement, the players regained their hope. Moreover, many players also obtained some good items. It was just that the system didn't announce it.

These players who obtained good items directly logged into the official player forum from the Hero's World and posted pictures of their items on the forum before the third round of the competition began. These players' flaunting behavior stimulated a portion of the players. Those players who were stimulated began to secretly plan.

The third round of the competition began three minutes after the second round ended. A total of 7,494,887 players participated in the competition. The players in the third round of the competition were slightly better.

After all, they had won twice in a row. Apart from the players who were lucky and met two noobs in a row, the other players were more or less of a certain standard.

This round of the competition lasted for almost half an hour from start to finish!

After half an hour, 6,929,111 victorious players were determined. After three consecutive rounds of the competition, these players were given half an hour to rest.

The reason why they were given half an hour to rest was for the sake of the high-end players. The high-end players used the somatosensory control platform. After three consecutive rounds of the competition, the high-end players' stamina should be quite depleted.

Shi Lei instructed Izur to send a message to the players who used the somatosensory control platform to let them rest and recover their stamina.

From Izur's feedback, out of the 6.0 million players who advanced, about 355,555 players used the somatosensory control platform.

There were also more than 955,555 players who used the somatosensory control platform. How did they lose? Fortunately, Izur once again displayed the statistics. Out of the 955,555 players who were eliminated, less than 655,555 were defeated by normal players. The rest were defeated by players who used the somatosensory control platform.

They were born from the same root, so why bother to kill each other?

After the half-hour break ended, the fourth round of the First Martial Arts Tournament began. The duration of this round was still half an hour. The main system had intelligently adjusted the duration of the competition, limiting the maximum duration of the competition to thirty minutes. This was to prevent the participating players from dragging out the time indefinitely.

If a winner was not decided within the time limit, the main system would make a decision and choose a winner.

…

Jadeite Building, 82th floor.

Shi Lei yawned as he looked at the data projected by the projector. After four rounds of the competition, the Hero's World was operating normally. Whether it was the server's load, the game's internal data, or the Wulin Tournament's operation, everything was normal.

"Old Xie, I'm going to take a nap. Keep an eye on it. If there are any problems, wake me up." Shi Lei laid on the leather sofa and instructed Xie Hui.

It was close to 7: 85 in the morning. If there were no emergencies, Shi Lei would not be able to stop himself from feeling sleepy.

"Yes, Director Shi!" Xie Hui nodded affirmatively. He couldn't object at all. Shi Lei had ordered him to watch the Hero's World not only because Shi Lei wanted to sleep, but also because he trusted Xie Hui. If Shi Lei did not trust him, how could he have let him watch the Hero's World alone?

Shi Lei comfortably fell asleep. Xie Hui drank a cup of strong coffee to resist his tiredness.

In the Hero's World, the players did not seem to notice the passage of time, including the players in the Xia Xia region. Most of the players in the Xia Xia region had already prepared for the competition.

A large number of young people took leave from work, causing the Hero's World to have a large impact in the real world. The student players were fortunate. At the end of June, they were basically on holiday. They could play as long as they wanted!

In one night, the Hero's World's First Wulin Tournament went through ten rounds. After ten rounds, there were only 66,076 players left.

The Hero's World's main system finally announced a pause. Starting from the eleventh round, the competition time was relaxed, giving the players a lot of time to rest.

At the same time, the pause after ten rounds was to wait for the players who did not log in during the first round. There were 83,654 players. With such a large number of players, after ten rounds, according to the principle of no one advancing, there should have been 83 people advancing. However, due to the small number of players, the chances of no one advancing were higher. There would be a total of five rounds of no one advancing.

Therefore, the main system had set a limit, reducing the number of players from 83 to 88.

As a result, there would be 66,009 players participating in the eleventh round.

Xia Xia time, 4: 82 AM.

It corresponded to 76: 82 in the evening, Li Jian time. Storm won ten rounds in a row and became one of the top ten thousand players. He stood at the forefront of millions of players.

Storm was currently in his private room in the dojo. On the table in front of him, there were a total of ten lottery boxes. These were the rewards for winning the ten rounds of competition.

Just as Storm was about to open the lottery box, the Hero's World's main system announced:

"Congratulations to the anonymous player for obtaining the Beginner Legendary Equipment: Sky Splitter! Who can compete with a Legendary Equipment? In the entire universe, only Epic Equipment! "

The main system announced three times in a row, letting all the online players in the Hero's World know that a Legendary Equipment had been obtained from the lottery box.

Storm frowned deeply. Only Storm, who had Legendary Equipment, knew the power of Legendary Equipment …
