Chapter 1: Stormy Chapter 66: Iron Lotus Cloud
In the official live broadcast room of Xia Country, the host Liu Xin looked at the light screen prompt in front of him, smiled and raised his head and said: "The first round of the Fire Seed Cup competition has been completed with all 16 matches. The virtual world has also calculated the actual combat power of each team. Liu Hai's team and Lei Yunfang's team are fixed as Team 1 and Team 2. The other teams have been ranked according to their combat power."
Liu Xin looked behind him, and the ranking of the sixteen teams appeared behind him——
No. 1: Liu Hai Senior Team (Captain Liu Hai)
No. 2: Lei Yunfang Team (Captain Lei Yunfang)
No. 3: Shield Axe Team (Captain Xiong Tianshan), team strength 18100
No. 4: Thunder Team (Captain Gao Chong), team strength 16980
No. 5: Jinpeng Team (Captain Tie Lianyun), Team Power 16960
No. 6: Team Zhou Yi (Captain Zhou Yi), team strength 16660
No. 7: Big Fish Team (Captain Chen Yu), team strength 15910
No. 8: Fuchen Team (Captain Liu Jiuzhou), team strength 15800
No. 9: Xianzi Team (Captain Zhang Qing), Team Strength 15738
No. 10: Tianyin Team (Captain Zhuang Ziyu), team strength 15635

"In the second round, it will still be a head-to-tail match. Team 1 will play against Team 16, and Team 2 will play against Team 15..." Liu Xin said, "This is the match schedule for tomorrow."
The battle schedule is also displayed on the side.
"Zhou Yi's team is ranked 6th, and Xianzi's team is ranked 9th. It's really surprising." Liu Xin said with a smile, "On the one hand, some masters are still hiding their strength, and on the other hand, the competition will become more intense . Tomorrow's competition will definitely be more exciting. The first round of the Huozhong Cup competition has ended. Next is the 'Master Tracking' hosted by my colleague Sister Wan Ning."
Nowadays, Xiaguo’s official live broadcast room has programs available 24 hours a day.
At this moment, the audience quickly left. After all, everyone was tired after watching the game for so long. Even in the later stages of the game, the number of viewers had dropped to 800 million. Because the online time limit for minors under 16 is 8 hours, those children are unwilling to spend all their online time watching the game.
"Go to my personal space." Xu Jingming stood up, and the other five members of the Limu team also stood up.
"I always feel like a Husky mixed in with wolves?" Li Miaomiao thought secretly as he mixed in with them.
…
In Xu Jingming's personal space, through the huge glass windows, one can see the icy lake on the top of the snow-capped mountain. The scenery is very beautiful.
All six members of the Limu team sat down on the sofa.
"When I was watching the game just now, I also took the time to carefully watch the videos of the previous games." Xu Jingming said, "I found some threatening opponents."
"Is there a third-level master?" Wang Yi asked, his eyes lighting up.
Xu Jingming waved his hand, and sixteen teams appeared in order next to him.
"I've carefully watched the slow-motion footage of some key battles." Xu Jingming nodded, "It can be confirmed that Xiong Tianshan of the Shield Axe Team has broken through to the third level in battle, but his evolution method has not reached a high level. But tomorrow, there is a certain probability that his evolution method will break through successfully."
"Zhang Qing from the Xianzi team, Tie Lianyun from the Jinpeng team, and Fang Yu from the Wuling team, all three of them are suspected to have made breakthroughs." Xu Jingming said.
"Suspected breakthrough?" The team members all looked at Xu Jingming.
"The probability that they have already broken through is at least 80%, or maybe I've made a mistake." Xu Jingming said, "Of course, there may be masters hidden in the entire competition that I haven't noticed, but the second round of the competition will be more intense, and their strengths will be revealed one by one. We are in the fifth game tomorrow, and our opponent is the Jinpeng team."
September 3rd at 2:00, Jinpeng Team vs. Limu Team.
"We only need to focus on the Jinpeng team now!" said Xu Jingming.
"Sun Li is in the Jinpeng team." Heng Fang said coldly, "We served as a free sparring partner for this villain for more than half a month, besieging him and training him in close combat archery. He mastered it, but he slipped away before the competition started."
"Just take what you said as fart." Liu Chongyuan was also angry.
"We now have a stronger Sister Yi." Yang Qingshuo said with a smile, "That Sun Li must be very unhappy."
Wang Yi smiled and said: "I will definitely perform well during the competition."
"Sun Li is not worth mentioning." Xu Jingming said, "He is the weakest in their team. Tie Lianyun, Zhao Pan, Zhang Feng, and Zhang Cheng need to be more careful. Especially my senior brother Tie Lianyun... He was one of the three legends in the martial arts world of my Xia country and was ranked first in the world three times!"
Xu Jingming said solemnly, "Speaking of which, in the World Martial Arts Competition, he is the person in Xia Country who has won the most world firsts!"
Heng Fang also nodded, feeling the pressure: " Brother Tie Lianyun is the most hardworking and crazy person I have ever seen in training. He trains so hard every day that his shoes are even worn out... so later he just trains barefoot! All year round, no matter how cold it is, he trains barefoot, and both feet have thick calluses. He trains in the morning, in the evening, and even when he wakes up at night. It seems that his life is only about practicing martial arts."
The fellow students who had been in the national team all had strong feelings about this. Yang Qingshuo also said, "Brother Xu is very dedicated in practicing martial arts, but Senior Brother Tie Lianyun is simply a lunatic."
"Because of this, he inherited the most of Master's shield and sword skills." Xu Jingming said, "And I feel that he has probably made a breakthrough! If he breaks through to the third level, the high level of the evolution method... then we must do our best in this battle."
"Yeah." Everyone present nodded.
"Zhao Pan and Zhang Feng, both of them are as strong as me." Heng Fang nodded, "They are much younger than me and have terrifying potential."
"yes."
Liu Chongyuan said, "Zhao Pan is 18 years old this year, and Zhang Feng is 20 years old this year. They are both amateur players. They have both reached their current levels in just over a month of entering the virtual world. Their talents are truly terrifying."
Li Miaomiao said: "The Golden Roc team selected two young people with extraordinary talents, which shows their ambition. They also invited Tie Lianyun to be the captain!"
"Zhang Cheng is better than me in shield skills." Liu Chongyuan nodded, "He is a person who can hardly find any flaws ."
…
Jinpeng Team, Tie Lianyun’s personal space.
This is a mountain forest, and the entire forest is the residential area of Tielianyun. The six team members and the team manager are sitting on wooden chairs.
"Our opponent in the second round is the Limu team." The silver-haired young man looked at Sun Li, "Sun Li, you were originally teammates with Xu Jingming and the others. Tell me what you know."
Sun Li nodded: "As for Wang Yi, I haven't had much contact with him. But I am very familiar with the other four. In terms of position, Heng Fang is comparable to Zhao Fan, and we need to be careful of his flying spear technique. Yang Qingshuo is slightly weaker than Zhang Feng. Liu Chong is slightly weaker than Zhang Cheng and more clumsy. As for the captains of the two teams, our captain is naturally much stronger than Xu Jingming."
"Yeah." The silver-haired young man nodded slightly.
The short and fat Tie Lianyun sat there and said indifferently: "My junior brother Xu Jingming is suspected to have broken through to the third level."
Wow.
Everyone present looked at Tie Lianyun at the same time.
"Breakthrough to the third level?" Zhao Fan was a young man who was a little immature and full of vigor. He couldn't help but ask, "He only used a shield in the preliminaries and the first round of the competition. Can you be sure that he has broken through?"
"He's too steady! He holds his shield too firmly, and his timing of dodging is too perfect." Tie Lianyun said coldly, "But my junior brother is known for his violence and swiftness, and has never been a steady person. Only when his fighting skills are broken through can he face all kinds of situations with incomparable stability."
The silver-haired young man nodded solemnly: "What you said makes sense. I have observed many players and I also think Xu Jingming is very stable this time."
"The most important thing is that in the preliminaries and the first round, he didn't even use his marksmanship." Tie Lianyun said calmly, "I observed him when he joined the national team. My junior brother has an amazing talent for marksmanship. Combining all aspects, I judge that he has a high probability of breaking through the third level."
"I can be sure that when I left the Limu team, he hadn't yet broken through," said Sun Li.
"That means he broke through after you left." Tie Lianyun said, "Okay, leave him to me! You guys deal with the others."
"Yes, Captain!" The rest of the team responded immediately.
The silver-haired young man looked at this scene with satisfaction. He felt that the wisest thing he did was to choose Tie Lianyun as the captain. Unfortunately, Wang Yi, who was expected to be invited, could not be invited.
