Chapter 455: The Brutal Black Dragon! The Selection of the Five-Colored Dragon Throne!
After Little Maggie finished speaking, she said to Su Bai, "Su Bai, you must kill that black dragon!"
Su Bai raised his head and looked at her curiously: "Isn't he from the same tribe as you?"
Little Maggie shook her head and said, "You probably don't know about the struggle within the Five-Colored Dragon Clan, right?"
Su Bai shook his head: "I've only heard about it, but I don't know much."
Little Maggie pouted and said, "The struggle within the Five-Colored Dragon Clan can be said to be one of the most brutal and cruel races in the Endless Continent."
"It's not much different from the way the Barbarian Bloods select the princes and princesses of the tribe. It's even more cruel."
"If you want to sit on the throne, you must not only defeat the veteran masters within the Five Color Dragon, but also kill the previous Dragon King. Only in this way can you sit on the Dragon Throne."
At this point, she looked at the black dragon in the projection of the game and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, this black dragon should be the next Dragon King."
"But if he were to take over, my mother might die in his hands."
Little Maggie's mother is the silver dragon elder of the five-color dragon clan.
According to the rules, the black dragon Archibald must defeat her before he can challenge the Dragon Throne.
But given Archibald's bloodthirsty character, being defeated by him would mean death, with no possibility of survival.
That's why little Maggie said this to Su Bai.
The black dragon Archibald is an unrivaled prodigy of the five-colored dragon clan. In the past thousand years, perhaps only the current red dragon queen Aphra can compete with him.
However, after the dragon race was promoted to the super position, their aging speed was not much slower than that of other races.
One day, Aphra will grow old, and the new Dragon King will defeat her and take the throne.
With such a cruel monarch, some of the Five-Colored Dragon Clan will probably suffer for the next thousand years.
Su Bai nodded, and he understood.
Now it seems that the better the talents of the younger generations in the clan are, the better it is not necessarily a good thing.
For many major races, it is better to have a stable and conservative king than a cruel crown prince.
Su Bai did not refuse Maggie's request and said calmly:
"It's just a black dragon. If you meet it, just kill it."
These words were said with great dominance, stirring up huge waves of shock in the hearts of the contestants nearby.
Is Su Bai so arrogant?
That's Archibald, who is ranked in the top 5 seeded players in terms of support rate on the official website of this competition.
In terms of ranking, he is three places higher than Su Bai.
Judging from Su Bai's tone, it seemed that he didn't take the Black Dragon Archibald seriously at all.
Just kill him?
What a big tone!
The contestants were secretly complaining in their hearts.
Only players like Maggie and Nelson who have seen Su Bai's secret trial know that Su Bai's talk is not just empty talk.
If he says so, then he can definitely do it!
For some reason, they had more confidence in Su Bai than those seeded players.
Little Maggie smiled and said, "Hey, then it depends on you!"
Then, she put her hands on her hips and said, "If we get rid of Archibald, maybe it will be my turn to take the position in the future!"
"If I were to sit on the Dragon Throne, I would change all these cruel competition rules! No one would be spared!"
Nelson and others: “…”
So you are waiting here!
Su Bai smiled and didn't say much.
A few people were chatting in the waiting area, waiting for the preliminaries to end.
As time goes by, the number of clearing qualifiers decreases.
It was not until ten minutes before the end of the preliminaries that the remaining nine seeded players came out one by one.
If you look at the points ranking again at this moment, Su Bai is still stuck in 10th place. I don’t know if it was intentional, but Melody, who was in 11th place, did not squeeze him out.
Melody, who followed Janet out of the tower, waved over here as a greeting.
Even if she follows the big guys in the tribe to get points, Melody knows her own position.
The protagonists of this mid-level competition are the top 10 seeded players.
If she jumped out and took Su Bai's 10th place, she would probably become a "clown"-like character.
So, Melody followed Janet the entire time, tightly holding onto the 11th place.
Almost every seeded player will take a look at the waiting seats after coming out of the qualifying map.
The players and spectators discovered that these seeded players were all watching Su Bai, who had appeared on the stage early, without exception.
Obviously, the seeded players have already regarded Su Bai as an imaginary enemy.
Otherwise, it would be impossible that the first person he paid attention to when he came out was Su Bai.
The audience was shocked.
"What happened to Su Bai being the weakest?"
They found that their previous guesses about Su Bai seemed completely untrue.
If Su Bai is the weakest, then why are these players paying so much attention to him?
This is totally unreasonable!
Could it be that...
Su Bai left early not because he was afraid of encountering other players in the tower, but simply because he felt he had passed enough and left?
Now it seems that the latter possibility is the highest.
"Hahaha, those people who just spoke nonsense to our Su Shen, get out here and get beaten!"
"The slapping sound was so loud! Who said our Su Shen is the weakest?"
"Yeah, I also think it's unlikely. It is said that most of the seeded players participating in this year's competition seem to be Su Bai."
"Haha, you guys take Su Bai too seriously. Those seeded players may not really consider Su Bai as their opponent."
"If they didn't regard Su Shen as their rival, why would they keep paying attention to him? Could it be that they are just bored?"
"I still hold my opinion. The seeded players may just regard him as a special existence. After all, Su Bai is the only low-level race player who entered the knockout stage of this mid-level competition."
"I agree with the above comments. No matter how great Su Bai's potential is, his background and resources cannot compare to those super geniuses who were born with a silver spoon in their mouths."
"What's there to argue about? We'll know the outcome when we start fighting."
“…”
The last sentence directly ended the argument between the two sides.
Regardless, the seeded players should meet in the knockout rounds.
As for who will win the championship, it depends on which four players can enter the final round.
In the eyes of most players, Su Bai should not be able to enter the final round.
Amid the audience's discussion, the second round of eliminations soon began.
The rules of this knockout round are different from the previous divisional competition system.
It's not like a lucky audience member is picked at random and can hit whoever he wants .
Instead, the system directly randomly selects two players to compete in the ring.
The winner advances to the next round, and the loser is eliminated directly!
Because Azriel had predicted long before the game started that the number of people who would make it through the preliminaries might be even smaller than expected.
If we still adopt the previous rules, it will be less interesting to watch.
It is worth mentioning that there were only eighty contestants who made it through the qualifying rounds.
This was simply the second round with the smallest number of participants in the history of the Ten Thousand Races Competition.
That is to say, with such a small number of players, the seeded players are very likely to meet in the first few rounds.
Amid the audience's nervous and expectant eyes, the system quickly carried out a random draw.
