Chapter 114 This is too contemptuous
"By the way, aren't we opening the game?"

Jiang Yu looked at the lottery sign and said seriously.

Everyone was focusing on who their opponents were at the beginning and forgot to look at the order of the competition.

After seeing the match list on the big screen, I suddenly realized that they were actually the opening match!!
The opening match is naturally the top priority, as it truly attracts worldwide attention.

If you perform well in the opening match, you’re basically famous!
Although strength is the most important thing for a magician, luck is also very important! !

"I'll deal with those Japs!"

Guan Yu was particularly eager to attack. When he heard that it was the opening game, his heart was filled with excitement.

They traveled the world just to become famous in this arena, especially since there are such huge forces behind each of them! !
"The opening match is a 5-on-5 team competition. We will select five people and Japan will select five people."

Mentor Feng Li said.

Since the instructor is on site, everything is decided by the instructor.

Feng Li glanced at everyone and then said, "Mu Ningxue, Jiang Shaoxu, Guan Yu, Nan Jue, Jiang Yu, the five of you go on stage."

"It's not a good idea to conserve our strength like this when playing against an island nation, right?"

Seeing Instructor Feng Li’s arrangement, Song He and several other teachers couldn’t help but speak up.

The strongest players in the Xia team are, in order, Qin Xiao, Mu Nujiao, Ai Jiangtu, Mu Ningxue, and Mo Fan.
Simply put, only one of the top five was on the list?
Although they look down on small island countries, they cannot preserve their strength in this way.

Not to mention, the overall strength of the island country is not weak.

If Qin Xiao and Mu Nujiao were excluded, the strength of the Island team would even be 40:60 compared to that of the Xia team!

Hearing this, Feng Li thought for a while and looked over the team members again.

"Lao Feng, you still have to win this first game."

A voice that sounded somewhat old came from behind the dugout.

He was an old man with gray hair and ordinary clothes.

Those bright eyes naturally fell on Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu also hurriedly stepped forward and called him "teacher" respectfully.

"Chief, why did you come down here?"

Looking at the old man with short gray hair, Song He was quite surprised.

"He is the chief mage of the palace - Pang Lai, the strongest summoning mage in our country. Jiang Yu is his favorite student."

Zhao Manyan knew that Qin Xiao didn't know anyone, so he explained to him in a low voice.

Qin Xiao nodded as if suddenly realizing something.

Panglai?!
He still had some recollection of how, when he was young and hot-headed, he broke through the steps of the Parthenon and was badly beaten.

To Qin Xiao's surprise, Pang Lai was followed by an old acquaintance of his.

The president of the Clock Tower Magic Association - Han Ji.

Han Ji was not surprised to see Qin Xiao, but nodded to him.

After all, how could a supermodel like Qin Xiao not come to Venice?

"There are so many things at stake in this first match. We can't lose!"

"Otherwise, public opinion will put a lot of pressure on the players and bring a sense of urgency to all of us."

Pang Lai thought for a moment and said, "Let Mr. Qin play. This way, there will be no risk."

Feng Li thought about it carefully and finally agreed to let Qin Xiao play.

Qin Xiao replaced Nan Jue, and the captain fought in this first battle.

Next, the Xia team discussed tactics briefly and began to prepare for the game. There are many magic arenas in Venice, and this is just one of the opening venues.

But the magic flat battlefield alone is about the size of four football fields.

This is a rather exaggerated scale. It is really not easy to free up such a piece of land in Venice, where every inch of land is valuable.

The magic arena is large, which means the viewing seats are also densely packed.

But considering that magic battles are dangerous, even if there is a protective barrier, not too many people will be allowed to gather in the arena to watch.

Anyway, with the magic technology we have now, the battle scenes can be transmitted to the viewers without any omissions.

The duel arena has been tightly surrounded by a barrier.

There are also defense mages outside the barrier, and they will be responsible for resisting the huge amount of energy that may overflow.

The contestants are basically high-level wizards, and the destructive power caused by a high-level magic is enough to shake an entire street.

Therefore, even in a duel arena the size of four football fields, we cannot let our guard down.

The site initially appeared to be muddy and covered with fine dust.

It seems that just a random wind magic can raise a large amount of dust.

However, several old wizards soon entered the venue.

Relying on their earth and plant magic, they began to change the shape of the venue on the spot.

Just like magic, hard soil, mud, high rocks, and hills.
A different landscape soon took shape in full view of everyone.

Then, several old plant wizards began their performances.

You can see towering ancient trees rising from the ground, with lush green woods forming a dense canopy, covered with long vines and tendrils, intertwining to form a primeval forest!
The bare magic duel arena has completely turned into a wild battlefield.

If the entire venue was not surrounded by a barrier and the walls of the Colosseum, it would seem as if one was completely in a forest outside the city!
Mages can be roughly divided into two categories: combat type and auxiliary type.

Mo Fan and others are typical combat mages.

There are many types of auxiliary mages, such as forgers, smelters, alchemists, gardeners, builders, and site managers.
They are all auxiliary mages. Although their combat effectiveness is not very good, combat mages will not be able to do anything without their backup.

With different terrains, the mages' battles will not be so rigid.

How to use the surrounding environment to gain an advantage is also a must-learn lesson for combat mages.

Considering that each wizard possesses different magic, changes in terrain will bring some convenience to the wizard to a certain extent.

Therefore, for every match of the Venice Showdown, the battlefield will be temporarily arranged after the players appear on the field.

"The players on both sides are in position."

The referee's voice has sounded.

"It's my first time competing in front of so many people. I'm a little nervous."

Jiang Yu lowered his voice and said.

"What are you afraid of? Just beat them to death!"

Jiang Shaoxu was quite confident.

"Guan Yu, I'll leave Ming Bu Song to you. That guy majors in the shadow system."

Qin Xiao said to Guan Yu.

"understand!"

Guan Yu nodded.

Both sides roughly deployed their tactics, and then the countdown of fireworks sounded in the sky.

When the fireworks bloom in the center, the competition between the two schools officially begins!
