Chapter 238 Semifinals! (Please Subscribe!)
The next day, amid the warm applause from the audience, the semi-finals of the World Cup officially kicked off at the New Rose Bowl.
The rebuilt Rose Bowl is no longer the same as before, and even the preparation area, the entire middle part of the field is recessed.
It's like paving the big hole that Gu Ci smashed out with his sword three days ago. The slope is much gentler and the shape is very rounded. Stands were built one by one, and a circle of corridors was built. This is the new preparation area.
Looking from top to bottom, it looks like a double-storey building with a hollow center.
If you include the auditorium, there are three floors.
Every position can now directly see the battle situation on the field.
I have to say that Neuer really has two brushes.
It only took three days to solve the visual problems of the auditorium and the appearance of the Rose Bowl.
The site incorporating special materials presents a light porcelain white under the sun, clean, beautiful and completely new.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the governor of California feels that the current Rose Bowl is more temperamental than the previous Rose Bowl.
Like an aristocrat in the arena, low-key and luxurious.
After all, it is something that spent star coins, it just looks different!
Neuer smiled and asked: "How does the governor feel?"
The governor of California nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad."
They are all high-end materials, so this retrospective master can't destroy his beloved venue, right?
Finally, I can watch the game with peace of mind.
Chris walks into the arena with a microphone in hand.
The first is the old rule, the draw.
The eight teams that lost the first knockout round will be drawn first.
Then came the four teams that were eliminated in the quarter-finals.
The last four teams are in the semi-finals.
There are a lot of games today, a total of eight games.
Four ranking games for 9-16, two ranking games for 5-8, and two semi-finals.
The audience was enthusiastic, holding the signs of each team in their hands.
Gu Ci found out that the BKB girl group has quite a few fans.
Many people have photo stickers of Ke Ke and others on their faces, and they don't know where they got them.
Soon, the results of the lottery were announced on the big screen.
The match in the morning had nothing to do with Gu Ci and the others.
It is the decisive battle between Subayli and the White Eagle Kingdom.
The BKB women's team is the first game in the afternoon, against the Dayang State St. Hughes.
The last champion was drawn to Brother Lao Dao.
Not so much luck.
St. Hughes should be the strongest of the other three teams eliminated in the second round of the knockout round.
The winning team will compete against another team for fifth place on finals day.
In the semi-final match, Lu Beibei was drawn to the Holy Dark Team.
The opponent of the Xinglan Academy team is naturally the first team of Olympus.
When Gu Ci came back, he clapped his hands and asked Zheng Fanfan and others to gather.
"In this match, if there is no accident, the Olympus team will still have five players from Damianos. You should assign your goals one-on-one, and don't target the wrong person."
"yes!"
The five of Zheng Fanfan were both excited and nervous.
Unexpectedly, Coach Gu would actually let them play again.
They are just substitute players, they can actually play in the semi-finals...
You must seize this opportunity, perform well, and fight for yourself and Coach Gu!
The five of them finished checking the decks under Gu Ci's instructions, and immediately went into warm-up training.
Even more exaggerated than the girls who played for the first time.
The Xinglan Academy team's game is the last game in the afternoon, and they have already started preparing for the first game in the morning.
In groups of two, they competed with each other, and Xu Tuantuan made up for the difference.
Each of the six people sat on a small bench, spread a few tablecloths with squares on the floor, and played cards seriously.
Coco was dumbfounded.
"Didn't they say they wanted to train?"
What kind of training is this?
Coco also knows how to play cards, Xia Zhi and Xiao Zijin taught them.
In the bar before, they played cards as a drinking game a few times.
But what does this have to do with the game?
Could it be that Mr. Zheng and the others want to relax first, and then officially warm up when the game is about to begin in the afternoon?
"You'll know when the time comes." Gu Ci smiled mysteriously without explaining, "But you guys, don't you seem to be nervous today?"
"Don't be nervous." Ke Ke blinked playfully, "Aren't we a team? Master Gu will help us get the first place, so we can fight casually."
A Li also said: "That is, the three of us form a regiment and appoint Quack to kill randomly."
Well, they are in charge of quacking, Master Gu and Master Lu are in charge of random killing.
The girls really saw it.
They were eliminated in the quarter-finals, and their final ranking could only be between 5th and 8th.
Whether it is fifth or eighth, it makes no difference to them.
It makes no difference to the audience.
Star card masters' competitions have always been so cruel, and only by winning the championship—at least the top three—will they be eligible to be remembered by more people.
Since the results are similar, why should they be under pressure?
It's better to open up.
Once a person chooses to open up, he will find that the burden on his body is gone all of a sudden, and even breathing is much easier.
Needless to say, this feeling is really good.
What's more, their participation in the World Cup this time is not without gain.
On the contrary, they gained a lot and directly became Master Gu's exclusive war concubine.
Think about it, with the Xinglan Academy team, they are destined not to win the championship, and the best result is only the second place.
A few silver medals and a few certificates, not even a silver trophy, can this compare to the one given by Master Gu?
nonexistent.
From a long-term and practical point of view, even if you get the first place, it's not really enough to be Master Gu's little follower.
Both honor and applause are imaginary, invisible and intangible.
Master Gu is actually placed in front of their eyes, they can see it, it is very eye-catching, and maybe they can even touch it...
cough cough.
In short, Ah Li and Ke Ke maintained a high degree of agreement on this matter.
The idea of Xiaota and others is similar.
Being favored by Master Gu, their trip to the World Cup this time can be said to be complete, and the rest of the work of winning glory for the country will be left to Master Gu and Master Lu.
They can't beat the Holy Dark team, but sitting off the court and shouting 666 is definitely nice.
Lu Beibei was full of confidence: "Don't worry, I will avenge you today."
Yesterday he asked Ke Ke and the others if they found any strange cards when they played against the Holy Dark Team, and the answer was no.
Under normal circumstances, you can't see what the other party's card looks like.
This answer was expected by Lu Beibei, but it was not a big problem.
From Ke Ke's description, Lu Beibei can basically conclude that the Holy Dark Team has a way to make the opponent's star power recovery card lose its effect.
This is very much like a card specially designed for the three teams of the Eastern Kingdom.
Unable to restore star power, it means that the number of star cards each of them can use will become extremely limited.
It's equivalent to directly erasing Coco's advantage, and there is no star power, so what milkman?
If the Holy Dark team used this card as soon as they entered the field, then there would be almost no chance to combine the combination cards of their Star Marine Corps and Xinglan Academy team.
Even if this card is indistinguishable from enemy to friend, the Holy Dark team itself will be affected, and they will still have a very difficult game.
After all, they have five champion level card masters, and Xia Zhi is the only one who can fight on their side.
Lu Tietie, who has the strongest personal ability in the Star Marine Corps, has an A level of less than ten, which is about the same as Su Xiaoyan, with a 9.8.
So if you want to win the holy dark team, you can only rely on the deck system and find a way to continue the star power.
Or simply destroy the card of the Holy Dark Team.
Otherwise, when Lu Beibei and Saito Asuka shook their heads yesterday, how could they explode cards like crazy?
One reason is that the operation is not stable enough, but with Lu Beibei's current card making level, no matter how stable it is, it will not blow up so many.
Lu Beibei is trying to use more life force to make a regular-level star power recovery card, so as to compete with the Holy Dark team.
The rules of life are one of the highest rules. No matter how advanced the rules of the card of the Holy Dark Team are, how can they have advanced rules of life?
As long as the power of regulation is sufficient, the Holy Dark Team will not be able to prevent them from returning to blue.
After bombing dozens of cards, Lu Beibei finally produced five Star Power Recovery Cards with a HP of 9.99.
Even if the rules of death that restrain each other with the rules of life come, don't let them become invalid.
He wants to defeat the holy dark team, enter the finals, represent the whole world, and have a real peak showdown with the immortal Gu!
Time flickered to the afternoon.
Gu Ci didn't think much of the game in the morning.
He called the little bird over and continued to fuck him.
Spiritual rules are much more difficult than Gu Ci imagined, and the process of comprehension is extremely bumpy.
The main reason is that his mental power is too strong, and the rule cards made by Xiao Feiniao can't do him any harm, which leads to his serious lack of experience with cards.
Coupled with the fact that the mental rules themselves are more difficult to deal with, Gu Ci and Xiao Feiniao have been busy for half the night, and the progress bar is not even 20%.
Xia Zhi was waiting for him again, Gu Ci couldn't go back too late, so he had to come back today.
Lu Beibei's fire rules and Lei instructor's thunder and lightning rules Gu Ci are easy to understand, as well as Lu Maomao's "wind".
This young girl calls after Lu Beibei every day, she looks obedient and well-behaved, if it wasn't for the almost overturned car last night, Gu Ci wouldn't have known that Lu Maomao was also a real star card master.
That knife came down, not to mention how sour it was.
Others have no wool to pluck.
Gu Ci comprehended the three rules overnight, and worked hard with Xiao Feiniao, the fourth rule is just around the corner.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, it was the turn of the BKB women's team to play.
Gu Ci was still immersed in the fantasy card made by Saito Asuka.
This is a card that needs to be cast continuously, and it can make people fall into a sea of fire.
The bubbling magma seemed real, exuding a scorching hot breath, making it hard to tell whether it was reality or an illusion.
This is the strength of spiritual cards. It does not have actual damage, but if you think it does, then it really does.
It all depends on the mental state of the target.
Saito Asuka is relatively confident about the cards she is best at. The average star card master who hits her illusion card will be confused for at least ten seconds, and will wait until he receives a certain amount of damage, and his body will give a danger signal , will realize that this is an illusion.
But Xiao Feiniao looked at her teacher, but found that the teacher's face was only slightly rosy, and there were a few traces of sweat on his cheeks.
Gu Ci was lying on the beach chair with a relaxed expression on his face, not like falling into a sea of fire, but more like taking a sauna...
When Saito Asuka used to hone his mental strength, he would ask Miko to help her like this, and use the illusion card she made herself on her.
Basically, if she persisted for three to five minutes at a time, she couldn't stand it anymore.
Resisting the illusion requires the consumption of mental power, and if the mental power is consumed too much, the ability to discern things will be greatly reduced.
Even if I know in my heart that it is an illusion, I will still be deeply trapped in it.
But the teacher...
They have been in for half an hour, and there is no sign of coming out at all.
On the contrary, she was about to die.
"Teacher, why is it taking so long today..." Saito Asuka murmured in his heart, it was obviously less than ten minutes last night.
Xiao Feiniao didn't know that Gu Ci was just testing the relationship between durability and depth last night.
See if the longer you stay in the illusion, the harder it is to have a deeper understanding of spiritual rules.
Gu Ci knew that illusions would drain one's spiritual power. At first he thought that the reason he had less comprehension when he entered the illusion the first two times was because his spirit was affected.
Although he felt that there was nothing wrong with himself, he was actually bewildered by the illusion.
Just like drunk people never feel that they are drunk.
That's why Gu Ci specially came out every few minutes to catch his breath and wake up.
But in fact, after Gu Ci went in and out several times in a row, he realized that he was really not "drunk".
Xiao Feiniao's illusion really didn't have any effect on him, and it was precisely because of this that he couldn't comprehend too many things.
Can't experience the real effect of the illusion.
After trying to understand this level, Gu Ci simply soaked in the illusion.
When you consume more mental power and get lost in a little distraction, you may be able to comprehend faster.
So there is the scene above.
When Gu Ci was awake, the magma was like a hot spring to him. Not only was it not hot, but the more it soaked, the more comfortable it became.
The star power in Saito Asuka's body continued to decrease, and it would be drained in a while.
Fortunately, Gu Ci also came from a sixth-level card maker, and he knows how long the little bird can last in the illusion.
"Are you tired?" Gu Ci opened his eyes and asked.
Saito Asuka shook his head: "Not tired."
Help the teacher, no matter how tired you are, you will never feel tired!
Gu Ci: "Then shall we come for another half an hour?"
Saito Asuka: "..."
No, teacher, I'm just kidding!
Your little flying bird is almost gone, woo woo woo...
"I'm teasing you." Gu Ci laughed, "Take a rest, just in time to watch Ke Ke and the others compete."
Saito Asuka breathed a sigh of relief, nodded hastily: "Yeah, listen to the teacher!"
At this point, the girls begin their pre-match inspections.
The audience was thrilled.
"After three days, I can finally see beautiful girls fighting again."
There is nothing in this world that you can't get tired of, except for beautiful women.
"Wait, I suddenly thought of a question."
"I also thought of a question, which should be the same question as yours."
"What do you say."
"Isn't Brother Lao Dao's bright rules purifying the opponent's clothes? Then wouldn't Keke and the others..."
"!!!"
...
