Chapter 338: Unable to Keep a Low Profile
The data for each person, along with many terrifying training photos, left Kuangwu Daren completely stunned. Is this training that humans can actually complete? These people were still just children at the time; is this not insane?
No wonder it had to be completely sealed off in the end, and even a gag order issued to all participants.
He felt as if he were reading a bomb, but... he still had to read it.
The original intention of the Tianqi Youth Class was to gather geniuses, including successors from various schools of thought, to provide them with the best resources while forcing them into intense competition. At this most pure age, under such stimulation, progress would certainly be very fast, and it could also give birth to power beyond imagination.
It was just that the power eventually spiraled out of control.
The Three Gods were already the elite of the elite in Tianqi back then, but when he saw the person called "Xilian," he discovered that the Three Gods seemed like nothing at all. This person could be called a God King, and he also had an impression of this name; after all, he was the first place in this year's Mid-Season Tournament for the NUP. It seems this first place was not a smokescreen.
Sighing was sighing, and marveling was marveling, but this was not what he was looking for. The person he had in mind had not appeared at all.
I do not know how much time passed, but when the data reached its end, a dynamic photo fell out.
The scene was littered with dead and wounded, the gods were in despair, as if trampled by a devil. Only one short child stood there, covered in blood, with a cold expression, body turned to the side, and in the moment of looking back, that gaze was like hell...
A small figure and a large figure suddenly overlapped. Kuangwu Daren shivered, yet he recognized it at a glance. Even though it was just a stored fragment, it still carried an intangible lethality.
... Zhuang Zhou felt the same way.
Zhou Naiyi had not yet gotten used to Ma Long's sudden outbursts. Everyone had also opened their Skynet to see the ranking given by Kuangluo Meiluo. To be honest, they were amused at first, but immediately felt a sense of "it is cold at the heights." This was simply too exaggerated.
What is the basis for this?
A quick look at the comments showed, as expected, nothing good. Currently, Tianjing's strength was at most enough to challenge the top eight; I would be burning high incense if we could enter the top eight. Next year's Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team could definitely reach a higher level, but I dare not think about anything else. Of course, it is fine to motivate Li Hao a bit.
"Naiyi, remember Hao Ge has a streamer fan? Kuangluo Meiluo. He is also a commentator for the S Tournament this year. Holy crap, look at the ranking he gave, I'm scared to death." Although Ma Long knew that support was a good thing, this was too fierce. He looked at the heroes of the world as if they were nothing, smiling as he looked at Li Hao.
Long Danni just smiled it off.
However, this pair of partners was quite similar. His ranking was: 1. Basta, 2. Wu Daren, 3. Zhuang Zhou, 4. Maxis...
Top nine experts of the S Tournament: 1. Puppet God, 2. Xie'an, 3. God of War Maxis, 4. Basta, 5. Anlita, 6. Chao Qinglong, 7. Wu Daren, 8. Cheng Konghai, 9. Klein.
Ranked first???
However, Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team was, after all, an excellent academy of the USE. Even if they were their own people, they had some confidence, but their reason remained, and they were not crazy. Ranking first was a bit excessive, so everyone could only take it as the support of a fan and did not take it too seriously.
Kuangluo Meiluo slept very soundly. When he woke up, he found that his Skynet had almost been blown up. He had actually hesitated about whether to mark Tianqi, but later thought, forget it. I am just a small streamer; this is my own opinion. As for how others see it, that is their business.
Fire Girl first tried a small test, hoping Kuangluo Meiluo would be sensible and spar with him, but Kuangluo Meiluo ignored him. This made Fire Girl feel a bit stifled, yet he was not good at pestering him, as that would make him look low-class. He just assumed the other party was chickening out.
It was precisely this kind of unyielding dispute that caused this ranking to trend, attracting more people to discuss it. The arguments here were not just a little bit; it was not just the Puppet, but also several others he had never even heard of, who suddenly popped up and had almost never been seen performing on the EMP. The key was that Kuangluo Meiluo did not even give a reason.
As for his personal homepage, he just scanned it a few times and then had a refreshing shower. Once a person has Faith, they become exceptionally open-minded. His ranking was truly a synthesis of Tianqi and the recent Mid-Season Tournament and a series of exchange matches. He was very confident, of course,
and also very courageous. If he messed this up, he might lose his job.
"It wouldn't be arranged by you, would it?" Zhou Naiyi said suspiciously.
What is all this?
Kuangluo Meiluo's progress was quite slow. At this moment, Kuangluo Meiluo's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the S Tournament tier list he had prepared. Click, confirm, send!
And what the hell is that Xie'an? A rich second generation? A scientific celebrity?
Li Hao hurriedly waved his hands, "I'm not brainless. Why bother doing this kind of thing before a major tournament?"
Everyone looked at each other. Having spent so much time together, they were already used to Cheng Konghai's way of speaking. He really did not consider social nuances.
Streamers watching the tournament before it starts is also a highlight. Every streamer has their own page to evaluate the S Tournament teams and players they believe in, all of which must be hung on the EMP page. Of course, you can predict however you want before the tournament, but if you lack the level, you will be whipped after the tournament. Currently, streamers from all major battle zones are fine-tuning based on the official version, mainly adding their own understanding of the battle situation. However, the data is public, so they are mostly the same, and no matter how tricky the angle is, there are no big tricks.
"Kuangwu, that guy, has some level, but he's a bit carried away for his first time on the S Tournament stage. This move is typical grandstanding to gain the support of Puppet fans; it lacks professionalism."
An Anlita, don't know if male or female, ranked above Chao Qinglong and Wu Daren?
What is more interesting is that many Martians follow Kuangluo Meiluo. They like to watch their opponents. Upon seeing this ranking, the Martians were extremely angry. Is this guy crazy? Has he started shamelessly sucking up just to get famous?
Of course, the Puppet's fans immediately found a beacon. He is worthy of being one of our own; this list is beautiful. Of course, most fans do not have the professional discernment for the S Tournament and just rely on intuition and purely believe in the Puppet God.
—A lone gunman like a Shura—half god and half demon!
Kuangluo Meiluo:
Kuangluo Meiluo also became famous overnight for commentating on the battle between the Puppet and Wu Daren. He possesses quite a lot of fans, and his commentary angle is unique. Because of his Ancient Martial Arts background, he provides many stories that ordinary streamers do not understand, which is quite distinctive. With the appearance of the Puppet, many people are also waiting for Kuangluo Meiluo's interpretation of this S Tournament.
Kuangluo Meiluo's trembling gaze gradually became crazy. He saw his Faith...
The social expert of the Tianjing Team is, of course, Ma Laoshi. He just looks at official news during training, wondering if he is mentioned. As long as it is an objective evaluation, he can be happy for a long time. He provides plenty of "milk" during training, although he protested Li Hao's unique method—the more he milks, the more he produces, and the more proficient he gets... what if he runs out of milk?
And Cheng Konghai actually reached the eighth place. Cheng Konghai nodded very satisfied, "This is about right. What is all that other messy stuff in front? Brother Hao, this Kuangluo Meiluo has some level."
Then...
The "Invincible" Fire Girl was excited. The Puppet is not here, and there is no one who can fight. In order to create momentum for the RM to win this S Tournament, he changed his ID to "Fiery Fire Girl." All the teams in the ROM are in an incomparably fiery state, leading the pack.
This is truly a god!
What is he using to rank seventh?
Originally, this was just a brainless, grandstanding ranking that everyone would just laugh off. However, since everyone else's rankings were mostly the same, suddenly having such a controversial ranking, plus Kuangluo Meiluo already having a certain reputation, instantly attracted many fans with nowhere to vent to gather on Kuangluo Meiluo's homepage for a crazy "friendly" discussion.
During that desperate time, it was the Puppet God who brought us light, so we repay it with trust and support.
What is this?
The streamers selected for the S Tournament from the four major battle zones are all the best of their respective zones. Being selected not only represents huge Glory and benefits but is also a status symbol. If you cannot be selected as an S Tournament streamer, you do not deserve the title of a first-line streamer.
What is even funnier is that the defending champion MVP is directly gone.
This ranking also sparked heated discussion among the students of Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts. Zhuang Zhou had already called Kuangluo Meiluo.
Although Kuangluo Meiluo did not say specifically, he is definitely not talking nonsense. He really has a lot of confidence in Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts.
"Holy crap, brothers, we hit the jackpot! Look, holy crap, someone actually thinks so highly of us. We became the number one team, Hao Ge, you are ranked first," Ma Long roared, suddenly interrupting everyone in training.
It exploded.
Having completed his task, Kuangluo Meiluo felt relieved. He had not slept for two days and could finally get a good night's sleep.
He only gave three teams. Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts is ranked first, Hailong is ranked second, and the most favored S9 champion, God of War Maxis's Galaxy Team, is only ranked eighth... The strongest academy in the Solar System, Galaxy Academy, which even the arrogant Martians have to give respect to, is now only ranked eighth...
S Tournament top three teams: 1. Tianjing Mecha Martial Arts Team, 2. Hailong Team, 3. Galaxy Team.
Teams: 1. Fire God Team, 2. Langwu Team, 3. Langsha Team.
The streamers selected for the S Tournament from the four major alliances are actually mostly the same as the official version when evaluating. At most, the ordering is different due to different stances. The controversy regarding the Puppet is only the fluctuation of the Emperor level or Supernova.
However, my name change didn't cause much of a stir; I had thought I could make the trending searches, which made Explosive Brother a bit unhappy, until my old friend Kuang Luo and Mei Luo gave their own rankings. Explosive Brother finally saw an opportunity; not pushing this to death would simply be a disservice to his profession.
"Ma Long, what are you howling about!" Zhou Naiyi walked out of the Gravity Room; Ma Long's voice had too much penetration.
What the hell is Puppet God? Doesn't it have a name? This is the S Tournament, damn it!
In the Tianjing Martial Arts principal's office, Long Danni also saw it, and she couldn't help but laugh or cry. It was a friend who reminded her, saying that Tianjing Martial Arts had become famous. Although she hoped Tianjing Martial Arts would be a bit more famous, this person must have a grudge against Tianjing Martial Arts, right? Hard-nursing it like this is equivalent to putting Tianjing on a fire to roast.
Li Hao was also completely bewildered, "What the heck."
