Kurosawa held the little Shining in his arms and slowly walked down the stairs and down the hall.

When he woke up early this morning, Little Shining was in a low mood, and Kurosawa hadn't figured out the reason yet.

Elves, like people, sometimes feel depressed.

Did the training and competition go on for too long?

He gently rubbed its head and said.

"After the game is over, let's take a few days off to rest."

"beep--"

It's really intense these days.

In fact, he himself was a little tired.

Arena - training room - hotel room to sleep and rest, spinning continuously.

Strictly speaking, he took a relatively long break after the Spring Split, and has been busy since then, with occasional breaks.

From more than March until now, I have basically been conducting various trainings in various venues.

But he is still in a critical period, and he always wants to improve his strength as much as possible before the next game.

This kind of hard-won important competition is the best breeding ground for the elves to improve their strength and grow vigorously. He also has a system that will only grow faster than others.

You need to grit your teeth and persevere these days.

After waiting for the game to end, you can relax for a while and slowly digest the results of this period during the long offseason.

Although there is still a provincial competition waiting for him in August, he does not take the provincial competition too seriously.

Judging from his current level of strength, the provincial competition is really just about participation.

He was thinking about something, looking through the transparent glass curtain wall of the lower-floor office hall to the gray sky outside.

The weather was not as clear as the previous few days, and the sky was gray. It was already the rainy season, and the rain that had only fallen on the eve of the start of the game had now accumulated enough water vapor.

A few crows were picking up food scraps dropped by passers-by on the sidewalk at the edge of the square.

Outside the window, citizens continued to enter the square to visit.

They were not allowed to enter the venue early in the morning, so they chose to wander around.

Ordinary people cannot enter Haitang Base Park on weekdays, but now they finally have the opportunity to come and go at will, so naturally they have to take a good look around here.

Seeing the six- and seven-year-old children jumping up and down excitedly and taking photos in front of the giant doo-doo bird elf statue, Kurosawa suddenly felt much better.

Just like when he was a child, he once worshiped the powerful elf master. Now he may have become the object of admiration for others. His power is not meaningless. Even in the peaceful Begonia, he can still give in corners that he cannot see.

The spiritual support and encouragement of others.

...

"Welcome back, all the viewers on site, in front of the TV and in the live broadcast room, hello everyone, I am the commentator Yu Li."

"I am the commentator Hongguang!"

"After a day's rest, we return to the exciting semi-final stage. Let's wait and see which two players will advance to the finals in today's game..."

The voices of the two commentators were full of passion.

Entering the semi-finals, the four players who are about to appear can basically be said to be the pinnacle of Haitang's local competition circle.

The only top local player who is absent is Wei Lian, who met Ji Qingwen in the previous round.

Ji Qingwen and Zhuang Yanbing in the semifinals are elite players, and Kurosawa and Gu Runchun are both top professional players. (They control the power of intermediate transitional elves)

It may not be a big deal in first- and second-tier cities, but it is already a high-end force in Haitang City.

The siphon effect of big cities is particularly obvious in this era. The development and continuous upgrading and improvement of eviction devices have allowed high-speed rail to connect most cities. After smooth traffic, small cities are attracted not only funds and ordinary talents, but also

A large number of elf masters and reserve talents are being lost rapidly, and small and remote cities are being hollowed out at an accelerated pace.

Moreover, big cities have large populations and high spiritual energy in their surroundings, so the proportion of ordinary people who have awakened spiritual energy is larger than that in remote small towns.

As one goes and the other goes, cities like Haitang are gradually entering "withering".

Kurosawa's business jets used for external communications often receive inquiry calls and text messages from human resources departments in other cities.

...

Kurosawa looked at the screen on the wall, which was broadcasting real-time footage from the venue outside.

There are two games today, in the morning and afternoon.

The competition team may have considered the problem of insufficient game time and added many live performances and activities before and after the game.

We even invited a famous elf performance troupe from the next city to perform on stage.

The audience enjoyed watching it.

The elf troupe is a performance group similar to the animal circus, except that they domesticate elves.

Unlike elf masters who consider strengthening their actual combat capabilities as much as possible, the performing group pays more attention to the special effects of the elf's attributes. The first priority is outstanding visual effects. It is no longer on the same track as Kurosawa and others who prefer practical combat.

Kurosawa watched the performance with appreciative eyes.

From a practical perspective, the abilities of these elves are simply unreasonable.

Want speed but not speed, want quality but not quality.

The released attribute energy may seem majestic, but in fact it is just a castle in the air. The extremely thin attribute energy cannot harm the tenacious elves at all even if they do not dodge or dodge.

After the performance, there was another exciting lottery ceremony.

Kurosawa stared at the screen without blinking.

I have to say that the Haitang competition team has completely figured out the appetizing aspect.

While watching the performance, he kept thinking about the lottery ceremony, and his heart was always hanging on.

When an audience member read the number and learned that he was on stage to draw lots, his face instantly turned red with excitement. He jogged to the center of the arena and put his trembling hands into the sealed cardboard box.

"Who will be the first player drawn..."

The commentator said in a long voice.

With the trembling hands of the lucky spectators, they squeezed open the plastic ball and straightened the note inside. The name on the note was displayed to the eyes of the spectators through the camera.

"It's contestant Gu Runchun!"

Kurosawa stares into the camera.

With the first player freshly announced, his attention became more focused.

The upper body stood up from the chair involuntarily.

Although it is rude to say this to the unfamiliar player, if his opponent is Gu Rinchun, his probability of entering the finals will be greatly improved.

Kurosawa advocates pragmatism. Being able to advance to the finals and receive an extra round of rewards is always more meaningful no matter what the process is.

In fact, he was not the only one who was nervous. Many audience members who liked him at the scene and in front of the screen could not help but turn their lips and silently chant his name in their hearts.

Although Kurosawa's parents are not young anymore and did not care much about competitions in the past, they now know a lot about elves and elf masters because of Kurosawa.

They knew very well that if Kurosawa's opponent was Gu Rinchun, the difficulty of the game would be much lower.

At this moment, they all clasped their hands and stared at the big screen above the venue in the distance.

In a classroom hundreds of kilometers away in a provincial capital.

During the recess, the students were noisy and playful in the classroom.

And a beautiful girl with a single ponytail was nervously looking down at the mobile phone in the cabinet. From time to time, she had to pay attention to the door to prevent a teacher from suddenly coming in and confiscating the mobile phone.

"Hurry up..."

Li Mianmian's delicate eyebrows like willow leaves were slightly frowned.

I couldn't help but secretly complain in my heart about the competition organizer's little idea of ​​delaying time.

Gu Gou

Class is about to begin, and she is currently watching the Haitang Summer Games via text broadcast on her mobile phone. A signal jammer has been installed in their class. She is sitting by the window and can barely receive some mobile phone signal, but she will definitely not be able to watch the video. .

And once class started, she couldn't even follow the live text broadcast. Although she couldn't watch the competition, at least she didn't want to miss the lottery ceremony.

If she doesn't know who Kurosawa's opponent is in the competition, she won't be able to feel at ease in class later.

Suddenly, a head came closer to me.

She was so frightened that she turned around and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that it was her deskmate Bai Yuzhi who had returned from the toilet.

God does not let down those who are willing. Li Mianmian studies hard on weekdays, his grades improve rapidly, and even his interpersonal relationships on campus are improving little by little.

Her classmate Bai Yuzhi is currently her best friend in this school. After going through "Amway", she naturally became a fan of Kurosawa.

The relationship between two girls with a common topic heated up quickly.

Bai Yuzhi is not particularly beautiful, but she has a cheerful and carefree personality, loves to play and can make jokes. She can get along well with both boys and girls. With Bai Yuzhi as a link, Li Mianmian and other girls Slowly we started to interact with each other, and although we didn't get to the point where we talked about everything, at least we weren't as ostracized by others as before.

"The results haven't come out yet?"
