1215 Insta-Kill! (1/2)
Other than the fifteen teams that were eliminated yesterday, there were sixteen teams remaining including Team A Murder Of Crows that had a first round bye.
The audience cheered and cursed(everyone knew who the insults were aimed towards), as the teams once again took the platform.
It was the first time that the players from Quan Zhen Sect were seated near professional players.
After the first round, the players that remained were all top tier experts. Everyone was in high spirits and eager to fight.
The players from Quan Zhen Sect were comparatively more relaxed.
As per the rules, the teams were randomly matched.
Just as the host was about to start the selection of the first teams up on stage, there was a sharp sound that came from one of the squads.
”I want to challenge!!”
”Challenge??”
Upon hearing this voice, everyone was taken aback.
For the professional league, there was a randomised selection format and also a right to challenge other teams.
The team could submit an official challenge to another team.
Of course, issuing a challenge displays a targeted vendetta. Since the gaming community was close-knit and players were usually acquaintances, although they might fight fiercely when the situation calls for it, they still had good relationships in their personal lives. There was no need to antagonise other players.
The nature of the challenge meant that it was also issued to the weak by the strong. However, there was no honor in challenging a weaker team voluntarily so few people had used the challenge option in previous competitions.
As everyone turned towards the voice, they saw Deathly Dark Moon pointing towards Fearless, ”Dark Moon Squad wants to challenge Quan Zhen Sect!”
”F*ck you!”
”F*ck you!”
Sure enough, Dark Moon Squad had already won half the battle at this point in time.
The host recovered from his initial shock as he gestured for the camera to pan over to Wang Yu. He asked, ”Does Squad Leader Iron Bull dare to accept his challenge?”
The host was quite cunning with his words, he used the words, ”Do you dare?”. There was nothing on earth that Quan Zhen Sect was not capable of, what more when their challengers were the Dark Moon Squad.
Wang Yu did not even bother thinking things through and simply replied, ”Bring it on!”
At this instance, the host announced, ”Team A Murder Of Crows will fight Dark Moon Squad in the first battle. Battle commence.”
”Hua!!”
In the arena, the audience flew in a frenzy of excitement.
Team A Murder Of Crows consisted of a ragtag gang of charlatans and lowlives yet they were challenged by a professional team. This unforeseen circumstance was shaping up to be an interesting development
”Indeed, indeed!”
The venue of the competition was enclosed and the discussions and gossip of the audience about the Quan Zhen Sect bounced off the walls into the ears of the players.
The players from Quan Zhen Sect were filled with anxiety, ”Are they complimenting or are they scolding us?”
Fearless chuckled coldly, ”There is no need to bother about their opinions. We are going to flex our muscles in this competition. The whole lot of you better be ready and aware to take them down!”
”We know, we know!” The players began to crack their knuckles along with warming up their muscles.
Since Dark Moon Squad were the challengers, they had first pick for the map.
