Autumn is crisp and clear, with no clouds in the sky.
Several days passed in a flash.
The specially built central square in Heihe County of Youyun Kingdom was filled with red flags and was bustling with people.
Today is the day of the town selection competition for the Three Realms "League of Immortals".
As an inconspicuous small country under Xiniu Hezhou, Heihe County, which is located on the border of the small country, has not been so lively for many years. Even the annual New Year is far less than today.
It was also the first time for the county guard to see such a big scene.
Looking at the flow of people coming and going in the sky and the earth, as well as those rich and noble young men, his old face smiled broadly.
Nothing else.
The selection competition for "League of Immortals" will last for more than a month.
With so many wealthy businessmen coming here, the expenses will certainly not be small, and the economic benefits brought to Heihe County are definitely needless to say.
This is a big political achievement for him!
The chances of entering the center of the imperial court in the future have also increased a lot out of thin air!
Also feeling happy is the land in Heihe County.
When he received an order from heaven asking him to communicate with the local government and jointly organize the three-realm "League of Immortals" e-sports league, the land god almost fainted on the spot out of joy.
Although he has never left Heihe County in his life.
But after having a mobile phone, I learned about all kinds of cutting-edge news, but it is no less than those practitioners who fly around all day long.
This competition seems like hard work.
But the benefits contained in it are extremely huge!
In addition to the voluntary funds allocated from Black Wind Mountain, this is also a good opportunity to stand out and publicize your reputation. As long as it is operated properly, it is not a dream to climb one or two levels of the priesthood.
But the premise is that this competition must be run well.
"Lord Sheriff."
"The Lord of the Land."
Thinking of this, the two of them looked at each other in unison.
Finally, there was an order from Heaven, and the slightly higher-status Tudong Gong spoke first: "His Majesty the Jade Emperor personally ordered this e-sports league to be hosted by Heaven and our local government."
"No matter what, there must be no mistakes!"
"What's your future with Laochan?"
"But it was all within this short period of one month."
The county guard repeatedly raised his hands and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Landlord, I have already made comprehensive arrangements."
"Fully capable of dealing with any unexpected situation."
"There will be absolutely no mistakes!"
Hearing this, the Earth God smoothed his white beard and nodded with satisfaction, "With these words from the Governor, I will feel at ease."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and checked the time.
"It's almost time, Lord Sheriff, are we ready for the opening?"
"Hahaha, the land master please come first!"
…
"Hurry up, Bajie!"
"You're an idiot who only knows how to eat and sleep."
"Today's selection competition in Heihe County starts at eight o'clock in the morning. If you miss it, I, Sun Fei, will skin you!"
On the road outside the city, Tang Sanzang's master and his disciples ran very fast.
Last night, everyone went to bed very late because they discussed game tactics all night long. In addition, the next day was the start of the game. Under the excitement, the master and disciples had some insomnia. When they woke up, it was already bright.
In panic, they didn't even eat breakfast.
He hurriedly packed his luggage and ran all the way towards Heihe County.
Zhu Bajie also felt very depressed.
It's as if you, the plagued monkey, haven't overslept!
If it weren't for Guanyin Bodhisattva's repeated orders, he wouldn't be able to use his magic power. He would have to keep his feet on the ground and rush to the West step by step.
He had already flown in the clouds to the city of Heihe County.
It’s really fucking inconvenient to run around now with a big belly.
"lose weight!"
"After this, I have to lose weight, old pig!"
Recalling his strong and handsome appearance when he was Marshal Tianpeng, Zhu Bajie secretly decided in his heart.
Carrying their luggage and holding their horses, the five of them finally arrived at the city gate.
I heard that they are here to participate in the e-sports league.
The soldiers guarding the city gate waved their hands and let them go without even the usual routine inspections.
joke!
This three-realm "League of Immortals" e-sports league is jointly organized by heaven and the local government. Immortals are even sent to help. What unsighted people dare to come to the city to cause trouble?
He hurriedly arrived at the central square, where the big screen above was showing the current match between the two teams.
Apparently, the competition has been going on for a while.
Tang Sanzang wiped the cold sweat from his head when he saw this, thinking that the Buddha would bless him.
But don't let them "die before they leave".
"Wukong, hurry up and ask over there to see if it's our turn to appear." Riding on his horse, taking advantage of his height advantage, Tang Sanzang swept around the arena and pointed at a place and said to Sun Wukong.
"I understand, Master."
Sun Wukong nodded, got into the crowd, and squeezed to the information desk.
"Hey, I, Old Sun, want to ask you something!"
Hearing the sound, the clerk who was turning to watch the game turned around.
hiss!!
But after seeing the monkey's face, he couldn't help but be frightened. Why did this man look like a monkey?
Not to mention the sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, he also has yellow hair on his face!
He couldn't help but think that the county governor had told them before that this e-sports league covers all three realms, and there might be some monsters coming to sign up, so they should be mentally prepared in advance.
No matter what kind of monsters they are, don't be afraid. Anyway, there are gods in heaven here, and the other side will never dare to make mistakes.
Of course it's best to behave respectfully.
Otherwise, if you get too excited and the other person is eaten, even if there are gods here, they won't be able to save you.
Thinking of this, the clerk forced a smile on his face.
"Brother Monkey, may I ask?"
Sun Wukong then said: "I would like to ask, is it our team's turn to play?"
"Excuse me, what is the name of Brother Monkey's team?"
"Datang Team."
Although I really want to reply, wouldn't you know this kind of thing if you go to the official website of the tournament and check the order and time of the battles?
But facing the fierce-looking monkey, he still smiled and said:
"Oh, there are still three performances before it's your turn to take the stage."
call……
Upon hearing this, the monkey immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
fortunately!
Finally didn't miss the game.
He turned around to leave, but suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, which team is we fighting against?"
After hearing this, the clerk looked through the booklet again.
"Your opponent is called the [Xiniu Hezhou Five Demon Kings] team."
"The Five Demon Kings of Xiniu Hezhou?"
The monkey smacked his lips after hearing this, "What kind of bad name is this? I've never heard of it, I guess they're just a bunch of losers."
"Thanks brother!"
Shaking his head, the monkey bowed his hands to the clerk, turned and left.
Seeing the monkey's tail flicking slightly on its buttocks after turning around, the smile on the clerk's face suddenly froze. It turned out that the county governor was not lying to them. There was really a monster coming to sign up for the competition!!
Mom, if someone comes again later, you must be more careful...
This idea just came up.
A shadow fell on the clerk's desk.
"Hey, kid, let me ask you something!"
The clerk raised his head, and a monster's face with two huge horns suddenly appeared in front of him.
And behind this bull-headed monster, there are four ferocious faces.
A lion, a big bird, and two monkeys.
hiss……
Is it because monkeys are more likely to become spirits? Why did three monkey monsters appear in just a short period of time?
The clerk murmured in his heart.
With Sun Wukong's lesson learned, he was more or less mentally prepared this time. His body only stiffened slightly, and he quickly recovered. He quickly squeezed out a smile and looked at the Minotaur opposite him respectfully.
"Brother Niu, please tell me."
"What, I want to ask about our team's debut time?"
"..."
Haha, another latecomer!
The clerk was slandering, but he smiled and said: "I wonder what Brother Niu's team is called?"
"The Five Demon Kings of Hezhou, Xiniu!"
Um?
Hearing this, the clerk raised his brows. This name sounds familiar. Isn't he the opponent of the Monkey Demon Team just now?
What a coincidence?
He came back to his senses and said directly: "There are still three games before it is Brother Niu's team's turn to take the stage."
"Haha, let me tell you, brother!"
After receiving this news, the tauren laughed loudly.
This is certainly not some other monster.
It was the Bull Demon King and the Lion and Camel King who came from the Fire Cloud Cave.
"Brother, you still have the nerve to say it!"
The Macaque King looked at the Bull Demon King angrily, "I had to play tricks last night and mixed my beer with my monkey beer. As a result, I got completely drunk and almost missed today's game."
"Uh hey hey hey."
The Bull Demon King smiled awkwardly, "I didn't expect it to be so powerful that it made us Taiyi Golden Immortals drunk."
"Oh, if you want to be more open-minded, isn't this a mistake?"
The Lion and Camel King followed suit to smooth things over.
"Yeah!"
King Yu Tao also smiled and said: "If nothing else, I am much more energetic than before after waking up from the wine. I will definitely win today's game, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise."
"Well, that makes sense!"
The Bull Demon King took out his mobile phone and rushed to the venue to take a photo, "Today is the first step for us to win the championship in the three realms!"
…
Ding dong!
Monkey, who was sitting boredly waiting to play, immediately saw the photo posted by Niu Dingtian in the King Exchange Group.
His eyes lit up, he was a little surprised, and then he typed:
【What does Ye Ao do to me】: "What a coincidence, brother is also competing today?"
[Niu Dingtian]: "Hahaha, yes, I just arrived at the stadium. Is it possible that I also have a competition today?"
[Ye Ao Nai Wo He]: "Well, we'll be with you in a while."
[Niu Dingtian]: “Ah, that’s really a coincidence!”
[Ye Ao Nai, what can I do]: "Hey hey hey, it's fate, so I wish my brother a successful start and a series of victories!"
Zhu Bajie on the side came over and asked curiously.
"nothing."
Sun Wukong pointed to the screen of his mobile phone and said casually: "There is an old man in the "League of Immortals" king exchange group. It happened that he also had a competition today, so I chatted with him for a few words."
"Why?"
Zhu Bajie took a look at the photo and was a little surprised, "The place in this photo looks a bit like our place."
"What's this?"
Monkey said indifferently: "The competition venues are all the same."
"But it looks quite similar to me..."
Hearing this, Monkey immediately became unhappy. He grabbed Zhu Bajie's ears and said, "You idiot, you have such idle thoughts, why not go and discuss with the master how to play the mid-field linkage in the game later!"
"Master, we haven't been playing for long, so you have to take care of it. If the middle and jungle are exploded and lose the game, just wait!"
"Hey, oh, it hurts!"
Being threatened by Monkey, Zhu Bajie immediately became frightened.
He glanced at Sun Wukong with a rather resentful look, "You plagued monkey, you know how to bully me, old pig!"
I vented a few words in my heart.
Zhu Bajie went to find Tang Sanzang honestly.
…
The waiting time is always excruciating.
Although the three games only lasted for more than an hour, Monkey, Tang Sanzang and his team were already impatient to wait.
Just when Zhu Bajie couldn't help but want to suggest that he go get some food first.
The host's voice sounded on the field.
"Next game!"
"Datang Team vs. Xiniu Hezhou Five Demon King Team."
"Members of both teams are requested to come on stage and prepare as soon as possible within a quarter of an hour. After confirming their identities, the game will begin immediately!"
Hearing this sound, the monkey immediately became energetic.
"Master, it's our turn!"
After hearing this, Tang Sanzang took a deep breath and gently stroked his chest. Although he had been on camera and filmed movies before in Black Wind Mountain, this was the first time he had ever experienced something like this on stage.
On the one hand, it's because he has only played "League of Immortals" for less than a few days in total and is not yet proficient enough.
On the other hand...
There are too many spectators below this arena, right?
In the waiting area on the other side, the Bull Demon King and the demon saints also heard the broadcast. They also looked happy, threw the leg of lamb in their hands, and all said, "We are finally here!"
"Hey, Team Datang?"
"I don't have any momentum at all. I must be a rookie who doesn't join the crowd!"
Demon King Peng wiped the oil stains from his mouth and chuckled.
"Just in time, let these people from the Tang Dynasty team see the real masters!" The Bull Demon King clenched his fists and said boldly.
"Brother."
"Shall we show our true colors to others?"
The Macaque King pointed to the camera in the distance and said hesitantly: "This competition is broadcast live, and it is still in the human city. If it is used in its true form, isn't it inappropriate?"
"You don't understand this."
King Yu Tao immediately retorted: "It is precisely because of the live broadcast that we have to show our true colors to others."
"If you show your style by then, it will be easier to gain your willpower!"
"Lao Liu is right!"
The Bull Demon King nodded appreciatively, then pointed to the arena, "Let's go up and see if our opponent is a human or a monster."
After that, he took the lead and walked onto the stage.
Seeing the Bull Demon King and others on stage, a clerk immediately stepped forward to confirm their identity. Fortunately, the landowner and the county guard had already vaccinated them, and they were still calm after seeing the Bull Demon King and the monsters.
The clerk on the other side also confirmed the identities of Tang Sanzang and his party.
I saw the "confirmed" gestures from both sides.
The host immediately shouted: "Now we invite the players of [Xiniu Hezhou Five Demon Kings] and [Datang Team] to enter!"
Accompanied by Xuantian's gongs and drums.
The Bull Demon King, the Demon Saints, and Tang Sanzang's masters and disciples slowly came onto the stage.
They all appeared in each other's field of vision...
