Chapter 1950

The schedule for the finals has been announced.

There are 512 teams in total, divided into two tree‑shaped zones; they keep winning until the end, becoming the top two and entering the grand final. The second‑place teams from the two half‑zones also face off to determine the rankings for third and fourth place.

Since the total number of participating teams has shrunk to less than one ten‑thousandth of the original sign‑ups, every team's match now draws the attention of all server players.

Consequently, the competition intensity has sharply dropped; there will no longer be two arenas fighting at the same time, making it convenient for players to watch every match without worrying about missing exciting battles.

Today is the first round of the elimination tournament; the next seven days are all the first round, with over 30 matches each day.

"Thus English: Thus English: Shuiyuecheng," one of the five major cities in the Chaos Secret Realm.

In the square, many players from the Blue Star No. 8 War Zone gathered together to watch today's match.

During the finals month, the system added a "global live broadcast" feature to boost atmosphere and viewing enthusiasm; above the main‑city‑level cities and the city lord's mansions in secret realms, the footage of the 3v3 tournament is streamed.

Before, spectators watched only in virtual space, entering the virtual stands alone; although the experience was good—like being there in person—they couldn't watch and chat with friends, losing much of the fun.

Now live broadcast and virtual viewing run in parallel; those who like excitement go to the vicinity of the city lord's mansion, while those who prefer quiet watch alone in virtual space, allowing everyone to enjoy a pleasant, top‑tier server‑wide match‑watching experience.

"Old Xiao's fight is at 2:15 p. m., the opponent is……uh, a war zone I've never heard of, it looks like

"Not much."

On the roof of the building opposite the city lord's mansion, Li Li, Zhang Fan, Shen Di, Zhu Long and others sat together, watching the 3D projection in midair.

The match has now begun; the two teams locked in combat are respectively from the Heavenly Domain Wasteland and the Sprout Star war zones.

Sitting beside Zhang Fan was Yun Shang Yan in an ice‑blue dress; hearing this, she said, "I've heard Xiao Feng is still unconscious and I don't know how he's doing. Ning Er and the others, however, are quite reliable—they haven't lost a single match so far and should be able to hold out until he wakes up."

"Yeah, they're really steady, unlike us…"

Zhang Fan shook his head and sighed.

In the Blue Star No. 8 War Zone, only Xiao Feng's team remains in the competition; the other three teams have been eliminated.

Shen Di sighed, "Actually our strength is not bad; it's mainly bad luck—we ran into too‑strong opponents in the group stage, otherwise our chances of reaching the finals would still be great."

"Damn it, that Shen Chuo—he logs off when fighting alien races, but when he faces our own people he's brutal! Tell Old Xiao, if he runs into Shen Chuo he must stab him hard to get revenge for us!" Li Li exclaimed, filled with righteous indignation.

He and Zhang Fan are on the same team, with teammates Yun Shangyan, Zhan Tian, and Dao Jie. Although their strength is not particularly outstanding, relying on a full set of top-tier equipment, as well as Zhang Fan who supports them by undergoing tribulation every once in a while, their results have always been quite good.

Unfortunately, in the group stage they encountered two strong teams: one was the seed player of the Blue Star 1 War Zone led by Shen Chuo, and the other was a team of experts from the Giant Beast Clan; ultimately they were eliminated with a third-place finish in the group.

However, this cannot be blamed on Shen Chuo, after all, if that match were to let

If they let water, the team eliminated would be the Blue Star 1 War Zone's team.

The teams of Sword Slaying the Heavens and Shen Di also had similar experiences; although their strength was adequate, it was still difficult to secure a top-two spot in the group stage, and they ultimately fell short, failing to advance to the finals.

"This Li Jinglan is really strong; I feel he's not much inferior to Shen and Han combined."

"Sword Slaying the Heavens" watched the live broadcast; the commander of the "Heavenly Vast Wasteland" war zone in the fierce battle was none other than Li Jinglan, who could also be considered quite familiar.

Zhang Fan nodded slightly: "As Old Xiao said, he cultivates the Pangu Great Strength Divine Ability, his attributes are explosive, his personal overall strength among all human war zones can rank in the top five, and looking across the whole server he is a solid top-thirty expert."

"He's already an expert in the real world, there's no comparing." The Killing God beside Shen Di sighed incessantly.

"Look, the battle is over."

In the picture, Li Jinglan unleashed his ultimate move, a palm print covering the entire field fell from the sky, ending the match with a single strike.

【Finals period, promotion match first round, winner: Please Advise Team (Heavenly Vast Wasteland)!】

【Winning team members' reward: 10 billion cultivation elixir *5.】

【Losing team members' reward: 10 billion cultivation elixir *5.】

The system announced the match results; although the opponent was eliminated, the participation rewards were actually the same.

The advantage of the winning side is that they can continue to play the next match, and they will also be able to obtain the reward for that next match.

This is the single-match participation reward, unrelated to the final ranking reward.

"In 15 minutes it will be Dun Dun and her team's match; I'm really looking forward to it."

"When Mang Mei makes a move, there will be no survivors; we must take it down!" Li Li clenched his fists, full of confidence in his former teammates.

Very

Quickly, a dozen minutes passed.

On the live broadcast screen, the members of both teams entered the field.

【Finals period, promotion match first round, match 12!】

【One God Four Pits Team (Blue Star 8): Rolling Old Crocodile (Source Water Star 2)】

【One God Four Pits Squad Deployment Status】

Position 1: Blind Archer, level 912, HP 89872 billion.

Position 2: Mud Brother, level 892, HP 166637 billion.

Position 3: Clear Water Sister, level 897, HP 506929 billion.

The live broadcast screen announced the basic information of the participants from both sides.

Zhang Fan took a look and exclaimed in surprise: "The opponent's strength is not bad either; their repaired level is very high, and moreover that Clear Water Sister has a lot of HP."

"How much? It's not even half of yours; you could be shot by Mang Mei with a single arrow and still have a hundred rounds left." Yun Shangyan chuckled lightly.

Old Zhang was instantly speechless.

Thinking of Mang Mei's terrifying output, aside from Xiao Feng among human players, probably only Shen, Han, and Li bursting forth at full power could match her.

Oh, there's also the mysterious Feng Feng Shi!

"This match should be Dun Dun tanking damage, Mang Mei picking off targets, and Xing Yun Miao slacking off." Li Li predicted.

Everyone expressed agreement.

Both sides' team members have 60 seconds of observation time upon entering the field, allowing them to understand the opponent and, incidentally, temporarily adjust their battle plan.

The 60 seconds passed quickly, and the battle started immediately.

Near Cheng Zhu Fu, players

Under the expectant gazes, Jiang Ning and the two others immediately sprang into action!

Only saw Luoli T hugging a giant shield three times larger than her body, leaping up and smashing into the enemy crowd like a deity descending.

The opposing players also reacted swiftly, having previously analyzed their past battles, successfully predicted, and avoided Dun Dun's stunning strike.

The big water turtle named Clear Water Sister flashed aside, appearing at a speed unbecoming of a turtle beside the Xing Yun Miao who had the least health and looked the most fragile.

"Miao Jie, be careful!" the spectators exclaimed.

Everyone knows that Xing Yun Miao's defense is not strong, making her the easiest to kill among the three women.

Clear Water Sister is a player of the Water Civilization with fierce attacks; if caught off guard and hit, even 20 trillion health would not be enough to survive a second.

However, under the watchful eyes of all server players, the healer Miao Jie, a support class, when faced with the enemy's charging assault, was neither retreating nor dodging, nor activating a defensive skill.

But!

She pulled out a sword!

Swish!

A blade of light spread across the sky and earth, engulfing Clear Water Sister.

All server players widened their eyes, watching as a -3103 trillion critical damage floated up, instantly killing Clear Water Sister, leaving not even a corpse.

At this moment, everyone familiar with Xing Yun Miao was dumbfounded.
