The next day.
The general selection league has officially begun.
Su Ping was going out today to send Su Lingyue to the general arena, so he could only let Joanna be the "acting store manager". Of course, this was only his verbal authorization and had not been certified by the system.
The only function is to open the door, receive the customers who come to pick up their pet beasts, and return their pet beasts for him. He can also receive some customers to cultivate their pet beasts and work as a cashier.
After all, this is what a store employee should do, but Su Ping had done it himself before.
Now that he has Joanna, it doesn't matter if Su Ping leaves the store, the store can still operate. However, if he wants to cultivate pet beasts, he has to open the world of cultivation himself. This is the core secret of the store.
Driving the chariot, Su Ping sent Su Lingyue to the main venue in Shangcheng District not long after.
This main venue is built in Tianwang District.
Just from the name, you can tell that this district is not to be trifled with. Tianwang District is the economic link of Shangcheng District. It is the most prosperous area, except for the first district where high-level officials from the municipal government live. It is the most economically prosperous area.
Every inch of land here is worth a lot of money, and they are all rich businessmen. With just a few sudden moves, you can kill a group of rich people.
However, the control here is strict and surveillance is everywhere, and riots rarely occur.
This time, by seizing the title of the main venue, the economy of Tianwang District will improve a lot again.
There are a large number of motorcades congested on the streets in Tianwang District. Traffic jams here are usually very serious. After all, every rich family has a car, and there are more than one. The civilians who work and live here are also petty bourgeoisie and buy low-end cars. Cars are a breeze, and the lower your social status, the more likely you are to travel by car.
Even if I have to buy groceries 200 meters away from my home, I still want to drive around.
Nowadays, there are more contestants and people rushing here, and the traffic jam on the road is more serious and blocked.
"There are many times more people today than yesterday."
Su Ping drove his chariot and galloped past a road with fewer vehicles. He looked at the motionless cars on the road next to him and shook his head slightly.
"More than yesterday? Were you here yesterday?" Su Lingyue on the co-pilot asked in surprise.
"Walked around."
Su Ping stepped on the accelerator and increased his speed.
Among the vehicles blocked on the road nearby, some people were honking their horns angrily, while others were looking out of the car windows.
"Can the one in front move forward?"
"Grudge, fuck, it was the female driver who stalled the engine again!"
"Honey, why don't you take the side road? There are no cars!"
"That is a special expressway for pioneers and big shots. If we go up there with ordinary license plates, we will be immediately kicked off and our driver's license will be permanently revoked."
"No, why can the pioneers use it? They are just killing a few monsters outside. What's the big deal?"
"Okay, just wait."
…
Following the dedicated expressway, Su Ping arrived at the main venue not long after.
It has to be said that it is worthy of being the main venue in Shangcheng District. Outside the venue, there is a very large area filled with people. In this area, there are many amusement facilities and some high-definition large screens, which can be displayed on Outside the stadium, I saw the live broadcast of the battle in the arena.
Su Lingyue thought she had seen a big scene, but she suddenly became nervous at this moment.
She looked up at the densely packed figures, and she felt a little embarrassed when she thought that when she came on stage, these people would see her fighting, and any details and flaws would be clearly visible.
When Su Ping saw her like this, he was not comforted and asked her to adjust herself.
"Go this way."
Take Su Lingyue to the player tunnel, where there are relatively few people.
The person guarding here is a high-level battle pet master. He is young, has a strong aura, and is extremely difficult to mess with at first glance.
After checking Su Lingyue's player ID, they let the two of them in.
"Do you know today's selection rules?" Su Ping asked while walking in the player tunnel.
Su Lingyue nodded, "First, through the scoring test, the top 1,000 players will be directly selected. The remaining 400 players will be eliminated directly. Then the real selection will begin. The first game will be a competition, which is similar to the audition."
Su Ping nodded. It seemed that she had done some homework.
"You have to pay attention to the scoring test before the competition." Su Ping said: "The only place where the Liu family can do tricks is here."
The scoring test is conducted directly by professionals and instruments without meeting the audience.
This can easily lead to shady situations.
Su Lingyue's eyes narrowed, and then she thought that in addition to normal competitions, she also had to be wary of other people's dirty tricks.
"I know, I will be careful."
Su Ping glanced at her and nodded slightly. Before coming, he also gave her the soul lamp secret treasure he obtained from the dragon scale area, which can protect spiritual attacks.
He had a better substitute. He didn't need the soul lamp anymore, so he could give it to her just in case.
…
In front of the player tunnel is a testing room.
All players who come in from the player tunnel will pass the test in this testing room.
They worked hard to squeeze into the top 100 from the sub-fields, but in this test room, once the score is ranked outside the 1,000th place, they will be directly eliminated and removed from the list at the back.
Therefore, for most people, entering the top 100 in a division may be the final highlight moment.
"No one in front is allowed to enter."
The guard in front of the testing room stopped Su Ping with a tough attitude. Su Ping glanced at the testing room and thought for a moment.
Su Lingyue seemed to see Su Ping's plan and didn't want him to get into trouble because of her. She grinned and said, "It's okay, I will take care of it myself later!"
As he said that, he pumped up his fists to look cute.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows, it was rare to see this guy acting cute.
While he was relieved, he felt that he had also seen a glimmer of light...
"Okay, be careful and use the dragon beast directly." Su Ping said.
These words made the guard who stopped him raise his eyebrows.
Su Lingyue nodded.
"I'll wait for you nearby and we'll enter the arena together later." After Su Ping finished speaking, he turned and left.
Su Lingyue watched Su Ping leave for a distance, then took a deep breath, turned around and stepped into the testing room.
There was a passage leading underground. The light was darker, and Su Lingyue became a little nervous.
Following the spiral passage and entering the bottom, she saw dozens of figures gathered in the bright light. They were all very young, but four or five years older than her, generally in their twenties.
"Are these contestants?" Su Lingyue took a look and came to the back of the crowd with an idea.
These people are all queuing up. At the entrance of a passage, there is a strong senior battle pet master guarding them. Every moment, they seem to receive a notification in the headset, letting the people in line in front of them enter.
Everyone is waiting to go in and take the test one by one.
Su Lingyue also entered the back row of the crowd.
boom!
Not long after, there was a sudden vibration from the ground, which seemed to be an earthquake.
Many players were frightened, and a dozen of them had fierce temperaments, and star shields and energy armor appeared directly on their bodies.
The faces of the guards guarding the entrance also changed slightly, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes.
"This is...a test, right?"
"Such a big news, my God, can't the shock absorption of the test barrier be weakened?"
"Who is testing inside?"
"Monster..."
"It seems...from the Qin family?"
Many players were talking in low voices, and they were all a little surprised.
Su Lingyue's face changed slightly as she felt pressure in the crowd. After all, she was recommended by Su Ping and aimed at the championship. Strictly speaking, everyone here was her opponent.
But for some reason, she felt like a lamb among a pack of wolves. Everyone around her was at a higher level than her.
"I'm very fierce, very fierce..." Su Lingyue encouraged herself.
"Little sister, what are you talking about?" looked at a burly young man next to him.
Su Lingyue was startled and waved her hands quickly: "No, no, I didn't say anything."
Not long after, the people in front finished the test one by one, and Su Lingyue arrived. Behind her, there were dozens of new contestants lining up.
"Go in." After reading Su Lingyue's player ID, a guard said calmly.
Su Lingyue plucked up the courage to enter the passage and came to the end, which was an underground fighting field.
At this moment, there is a barrier outside the battle field. There are thick cables around the barrier. There are more than a dozen staff and complex instruments outside. In the field, there is a semi-mechanical battle pet.
The mechanization of battle pets is a concept that has been proposed by the Federation a long time ago. Compared with the original method of breeding battle pets, the mechanization of battle pets can greatly improve the strength of battle pets in a short period of time, and can ignore bloodline.
However, due to some reasons, the mechanization of war pets did not become popular, and later it was only used for military purposes and some special experiments.
At this moment, this semi-mechanical battle pet has sophisticated mechanical instruments in its body, which can calculate the speed of its own attack, the power of the attack it withstands, the energy concentration of the opponent, etc.
Coupled with the instruments next to it, this semi-mechanical battle pet can collect a lot of data about the opponent more accurately.
In some interstellar explorations, fully mechanical battle pets are also used, which are equivalent to mechanical soldiers and are specially used to explore paths in dangerous places.
This was the first time Su Lingyue saw a semi-mechanized battle pet, and she was very surprised. This thing was mentioned in textbooks, but it was far away from life, so she didn't pay much attention to it.
"Go in, summon your pet, and stay there for one minute. If you want to give in early, you can, but you will be directly disqualified from the competition." A middle-aged man in a black suit and a high hat said next to him.
The barrier on the battlefield also slightly opened a channel of blue scale light.
Su Lingyue took a deep breath and stepped into the battlefield.
Without hesitation, she directly summoned the Silver Frost Star-Moon Dragon and the Phantom Flame Beast.
Seeing the appearance of Yinshuang Xingyue Dragon, the surrounding staff were startled, and then they knew that this little girl was basically stable.
"start!"
Following the announcement of the person next to him, all the energy infusion tubes on the semi-mechanical battle pet were loosened. It was a seventh-level flame electric tiger, a rare dual-attribute beast, and a more powerful type of seventh-level pet.
When Su Lingyue saw it moving, she showed no mercy and let the Silver Frost Star-Moon Dragon attack directly.
After ten seconds, the battle ends.
It wasn't that Su Lingyue surrendered, but that the people outside the court stopped in time.
Just kidding, if we don't stop this semi-mechanical battle pet that cost a lot of money to modify, it will be scrapped.
