Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

Chapter 1425 A chaotic draw, a big war is about to break out!
Therefore, everyone is carefully considering who should be sent to the stage to draw lots.

As the host's urging voice came from the stage, no one from other teams wanted to be the first to go up.

Fang Yun couldn't help but feel helpless.

"Senior, why don't you take over this time?"

After thinking for a while, he patted the shoulder of Liu Ximeng, who was chatting with Sujiu and a few other girls, and asked.

Hearing this, Liu Ximeng was slightly startled, and then she nodded slightly. After tidying up her clothes a little, she went on stage under the guidance of the staff.

Last year, it was Liu Ximeng who took the stage to draw lots, and she drew a trump card for Bianliang City, the Treasure Pavilion representative team.

Normally speaking, Liu Ximeng, who has such incredible luck, should be hidden away.

But Fang Yun didn't think so.

For their Bianliang City, it doesn’t matter who they play against in the quarterfinals, even if they draw 2008.

In this case, if Liu Ximeng can continue her luck from last year, she might be able to create some show effects.

Soon, accompanied by the whistles of the LSPS below the stage, Liu Ximeng, wearing a white plush coat on the upper body and slim jeans on the lower body, stepped lightly onto the stage and came to the lottery pool.

"Wow, another beautiful lady!"

"As expected of Bianliang City, it is truly a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery..."

"You're surprised by what you've seen! Do you think the four beauties of Bianliang City are a joke?"

"What should I do? I feel like all of them are suitable to be my wife, and I just can't make up my mind!"

"Give me a pillow and go to sleep. You can dream about anything!"

As soon as Liu Ximeng came on stage, she immediately caused a commotion in the audience.

After all, Liu Ximeng is regarded as the flower of Beijing University of Science and Technology by countless senior and junior students. A beauty of this level is a pure dimensionality reduction attack to the game geeks in the audience.

Amid countless pairs of admiring or longing eyes, Liu Ximeng came to the lottery pool and casually touched the prize pool.

Then, she was seen holding a small white ball, showing the number side outwards.

"Congratulations to the Bianliang City team for drawing ball number one!"

When the host A Zi saw the number '1' appear on the ball, she immediately read it out loud.

After A Zi finished reading out the number of Bianliang City, Liu Ximeng handed the ball to the draw referee and then left the field amid the reluctant gazes of the audience.

As soon as Liu Ximeng stepped off the stage, she saw that in addition to her own players, the players from other teams were also looking at her with complicated eyes.

Bianliang City is recognized as the biggest boss of this All-Star Game. If possible, no one wants to meet them.

But the reality is that Bianliang City has already drawn the lots, according to last year's rules of the head-to-tail battle.

Whoever draws the eight ball next will have to step on this landmine.

Thinking of this, Mingxiang and the others rolled their eyes, and before others could react, they immediately sent Mingxiang, the commander, to the stage.

There are still a lot of balls in the lottery box. In their opinion, the more balls there are in it, the lower the probability of them drawing number eight.

So they have to rush to draw lots before others. Although this cannot completely avoid drawing the eight ball, it still gives them a better chance than others.

After coming on stage, Meditation immediately went to the lottery box, stretched out his arm and stirred around in the box, and finally slowly took out a white ball.

"Congratulations to the Deyang Confucian Temple team for drawing ball number four!"

As Mingxiang took out the ball, A Zi beside him was quick to announce the number of the ball.

"it is good!"

"Ness!"

"Number four... the implication is a bit bad."

"Superstition! Couldn't the number four ball mean reaching the semi-finals?"

"That's enough. Let's avoid Bianliang City first, and the Deyang Confucian Temple can just be happy."

As A Zi announced the number of Deyang Confucian Temple, the supporters of Deyang Confucian Temple below the stage suddenly looked delighted and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

There is no weak team in the top eight, not to mention that the top eight of this All-Star Game are so strong that they are daunting.

Under such circumstances, it was already a very good result that Deyang Confucian Temple was able to avoid Bianliang City in the first round.

At the same time, just as the audience was whispering about the numbers of Bianliang City and Deyang Confucian Temple, Mingxiuyuan's conductor, the irritable outer shell, appeared on the stage.

It can be seen that after a long discussion, the teams backstage finally decided to let their own conductors go on stage to draw the lottery.

There is one most obvious advantage of doing this, which is that no matter who is drawn and how the game turns out, the commander has to take half the blame and can no longer criticize others without scruples.

A moment later, Angry Outer Skin handed the number six ball he drew to the referee.

The Mingxiuyuan supporters in the audience were naturally happy, but the overall atmosphere among the supporters of other teams became increasingly solemn.

The first three teams were drawn into different groups, which means that whoever comes up next will most likely draw a complete set of matches!
In this tense atmosphere, a man slowly walked onto the stage.

When they saw his appearance clearly, most of the audience breathed a sigh of relief, but the players in Gusu City were instantly in trouble!
"Damn it, what are you doing here, Xilangni?"

"There is still one set of matches that has not been picked. Could it be that he wants to pick number two, or number seven?"

"What were you doing earlier? Why are you just coming here to smoke now? I think there's a high chance I'll step on a landmine!"

"Not really. Our Gusu City is not weak. As long as we don't draw Bianliang City, we can beat the others. Don't worry."

"I say... have you forgotten there is a monster called 2008?"

Xilang's appearance on the stage made the players in Gusu City feel uneasy, but when the time came, everyone knew that this would happen sooner or later.

So after complaining a few words, they quickly shut up and waited quietly for the results to be revealed.

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Xilang looked relaxed. He reached out his hand and casually touched the prize pool, and soon pulled out a white ball.

Then, when he showed the side with the number on it, the originally noisy audience suddenly fell silent!

"Uh... Congratulations to Gusu City for drawing the number eight ball!"

Ah Zi was also almost silenced, but unfortunately she was the host, and after being surprised, she still diligently announced the results to the public.

As the results were announced, the audience finally went wild after a brief silence!
"Damn it!"

"Stinky! It stinks!"

"Xilang, I'm hanging your uncle, what are you trying to do to get your luck?!"

"With a one in four chance, you can even draw Bianliang City. You are such a talented person..."

"Great! In the first round of the offline competition, we can see the duel between the server war emperor and the host. It is really exciting!"

"Brothers from Gusu City, how are you? I have something to announce. I will take in heartbroken girls as much as you can, and men should be strong."

Xilang's "masterstroke" broke the defenses of Gusu City's supporters.

After all, as they said, in the first round, with only a one in four chance.

Miraculously, Xilang drew the tough bone of Bianliang City. It must be said that this guy has some "luck" on him.

The most important thing is that the Gusu City represented by Xilang is the host of this All-Star Game.

As the host team, with certain advantages, the players of Gusu City will definitely want to watch them go further at home.

But I never thought that before I even set out, I would be dealt a heavy blow...

It hurts, it hurts too much!
At this moment, the players from Gusu City in the audience only felt their heads buzzing. A second ago, they were still fantasizing about their team making it to the finals.

As a result, the next second, that bastard Xilang drew the group of living devils in Bianliang City.

This rapid transition from heaven to hell made them lose the desire to curse.

Compared to the audience in Gusu City who looked as listless as eggplants hit by frost, the audiences of other teams felt a sense of relief at this moment.

The biggest risk has been eliminated by Gusu City, so whoever is chosen next will be far better than Bianliang City.

While the audience in the audience was in a state of confusion because of Xilang's magic draw, the lottery process on the stage was still going on.

After Xilang was led off the stage by the staff with a confused look on his face, Abai came up next.

When they saw Abai come on stage, the audience who were originally making fun of Gusu City's heroic mine clearance suddenly fell silent.

It is true that Bianliang City is scary, but they have not forgotten that the 2008 team led by Abai is also a strong contender for this year's championship!
Under the nervous gaze of countless pairs of eyes in the audience, Abai came to the prize pool, touched it casually, and then displayed the drawn ball in front of the audience.

Most of the audience felt relieved when they saw the conspicuous number '5' on the ball.

But the audience at Deyang Confucian Temple were dumbfounded on the spot!

"No... If I remember correctly, the number 5 corresponds to the number 4, right?"

"Which team is number 4?"

"Deyang Confucian Temple! Weren't they the second ones to draw? Everyone who drew Deyang was so happy!"

"Wow, good guys! Now that's all right, let them deal with 2008, and we can just watch the show in Mingxiu Garden."

"I'm sure that the reason why Deyang was the second one to be drawn was definitely because he wanted to avoid Bianliang City. However, he didn't expect that he could avoid the first day but not the fifteenth..."

Abai's No. 5 ball instantly changed the atmosphere in the audience.

The players in Gusu City were still unhappy, but at this moment they were no longer lonely.

Players from Deyang Confucian Temple took the initiative to accompany them.

Although 2008 does not seem as terrifying as Bianliang City, their foundation is still much shallower after all.

But no one dared to deny that this was a group of ruthless people who could compete with the city of Bianliang if they broke out.

If the players of Deyang Confucian Temple say they are not afraid at all when faced with such a group of ruthless people, they would definitely be lying.

But whether you worry or not, the lots have already been drawn.

The only thing they could do was to discuss countermeasures before the game officially started.

At the same time, after Abai drew the lots and stepped down from the stage, the commanders of the remaining teams also came on stage one after another and quickly completed the drawing of lots.

Since the two minefields of Bianliang City and 2008 were eliminated early on by Gusu City and Deyang Confucian Temple, the suspense of other groups was not that great.

Soon, as the first round of competition groups were officially announced, the audience immediately fell into heated discussions as they looked at the competition list displayed on the screen directly above the stage.

"This round will definitely depend on the group between Bianliang City and Gusu City. The host will fight against the local tyrant. How exciting!"

"I actually kind of want to watch Deyang Confucian Temple play 2008..."

"I heard from the staff that there are five screens in the venue this time, and four sets of confrontations will be broadcast simultaneously. The most popular confrontation will also be synchronized to the main screen on the stage, so everyone hurry up and vote!"

"Why are we still voting? With Cheng Ge and the host here, the first round of the main screen will definitely be theirs."

"I think so too……"

As the first round of the round-robin groupings were officially announced, the audience naturally began to discuss which group to watch.

If it were last year, they would have had no choice at all, because there was only one screen at that time, and the viewing windows of all teams were crowded on it, and those with poor eyesight could not see clearly.

This year, Wangyi learned its lesson and immediately made adjustments, installing five extra-large screens surrounding the stadium.

Whichever group you are interested in, just go and watch that group's game, and the most popular group will be automatically synced to the largest main screen so that everyone can see it clearly without having to look for a telescope everywhere.

While the audience below was discussing which match to watch in the first round.

After the first round of draws, the players from each team have returned to the locker room and started preparing for the game.

"Isn't it a bit rude to hit the host right away?"

Sitting on the sofa, Shouye held a drink in his hand and said after drinking it in one gulp.

Hearing this, Fang Yun spread his hands, shrugged and said, "This kind of thing depends on luck. If they insist on picking us right away, there's nothing we can do..."

However, that’s what it’s said to be.

I thought that Xilang had a similar personality to me, and he had also stopped a conflict involving Abai in time.

Fang Yun had actually already made a rough decision in his mind.

The game must be played, but there is no need to use heavy hands right from the start.

While ensuring victory, they can try to give the other party more gaming experience.

But that's it.

Thinking of this, Fang Yun clapped his hands and said, "Okay, now that the first round of matches has been decided, let's quickly discuss the lineup!"

As he spoke, he first took the notebook that recorded various game information from Sujiu, and then discussed the tactics of this round with everyone around the notebook.

As one of the four recognized giants, Gusu City’s strength is undoubtedly unquestionable.

In order to ensure winning the game while preserving a certain degree of gaming experience for the opponent, the choice of lineup is crucial.

In the end, they quickly finalized the lineup for this round.

The Tang Dynasty of Qiancheng must be on the scene, after all, he is the symbol of Bianliang City.

He must appear in the first round of the offline competition when all players are paying the most attention to him.

And with Qiancheng as the stabilizing force.

They discussed the other output position and finally decided to give it to Qianren.

That's right, they plan to use double physical strength this round.

Qiancheng and Qianren appeared at the same time. At first glance, this lineup did not show any intention of giving face to Gusu City. It was completely aimed at slaughtering.

But Mr. Fang Yunshan had a clever plan of his own.

After the dual output was finalized, they discussed the candidates for support and finally decided to give it to Liu Ximeng's Putuo, Liu Siyu's Wuzhuang and Huang He's Daughter Village.
