Chapter 1860: Advancing in the Early Rounds

Until they reached level 68, they had no way to farm the next Instance Dungeon for now .

What was more, the professional league had already begun its preliminary rounds . No matter how much they would think they might not be selected, it didn’t mean that they could just be lax about it .

At the moment, the professional league was still the largest competition . After going through the various channels of the gaming association, this time’s league was formally integrated as an international competition . This also meant that the end of the competition would include fighting it out for the world championship .

At the moment, the only place that they could play with overseas players was Alterac Valley battlefield . The chance of facing an overseas player was about 1 in 5 .

Lu Li hadn’t fought on the battlefield for a long time . He didn’t even understand the power of overseas players .

However, he could cross that bridge when he came to it . He didn’t have to particularly worry about it .

If it was a competition like the Shadow Cup or the Donghua Cup, a championship team like Ruling Sword wouldn’t even have to participate in the preliminaries . Such a super club would be promoted in right away .

The league wasn’t the same . Everyone was treated in the same way .

Because of this, in the first match, Ruling Sword faced a team from the internet bar next to the school . When Lu Li saw this information, he didn’t know whether to laugh or cry .

With five players, three of them being level 62, one being level 64 and another being level 65, the levels were all uneven . It looked like they were just trying to fill up the numbers .

This team that was facing them definitely could only cry .

It had been a difficult task to scrape everyone together, and in the 1st round, they were matched up against one of the top teams . They protested against the league match officials, but this was to no avail . Shortly after, they posted on the message boards that their team was immediately splitting up .

This short-lived team became one of the most pitiful teams in the professional league .

Ruling Sword defeated their opponent, and so successfully achieved victory in their first match .

After the first league match, there was a Stronghold battle, which would mark the fifteenth Stronghold wars . Like before, there weren’t any new Strongholds appearing this time . Everyone was focused on fighting for the Strongholds that existed .

With the frightening Fel Reaver, no one dared to meddle with Ruling Sword’s system . However, Ruling Sword already had their fair share of Strongholds, so Lu Li wasn’t powerful enough to snatch more away . This time, they were simply going to watch the action come to them .

Glory Capital went through some struggles, but in the end, they didn’t lose a single Stronghold .

They also completed their swapping maneuver . Stranglethorn Vale went under the name of Eternal Kingdom, while the second Stronghold of the Hillsbrad Foothills went to Gale Legion .

However, anyone could feel that Glory Capital had already begun to be tired out .

They didn’t have many Infernals left, and their Barrenlands were almost snatched away . The attacking ones were Drizzle Court . Water Fairy seemed to harbor bitter resentment, still remembering the time when she first went into the Outland and Glory Capital had tried to ‘capture a beauty’ .

This time, Water Fairy directly sent a Fel Reaver to the walls of the Barrenlands .

This was the first time a decisive battle took place between an Infernal and a Fel Reaver in front of the players . This amazing battle completely overshadowed the developments of the other Stronghold battles .

Fortunately, the Barrenlands were Glory Capital’s main camp . The Infernal was brought along with Sorrowless . All eight Infernals were required to block the Fel Reaver’s devastation and defend the Instance Dungeon .

Despite this, Glory Capital’s people had been slaughtered multiple times .

Even Sorrowless died a few times .

When Lu Li saw this, his heart felt cold . In an instant, he understood why such amazing men would be afraid of their wives .

You really couldn’t offend women .

This time, Blood Red War Flag took Desolace from Seventh Heaven . Although both sides fought intensely, according to some reliable sources, they had made some prior agreements before the battle .

Actually, Azure Guard prevailing against Stellar Union to became the new masters of Arathi Highlights

was the genuinely intense battle .

Majin Temple and Gods of Dusk joined together to attack Wings of Dawn, continuing to maintain their power over the Thousand Needles Stronghold . Unforgettable Maple led his mages to summon a group of Wind Snakes, assembling them so that they were a united bolt of lightning . In an instant, they one-shot all the enemies on the field, reversing the precarious situation there .

There was no doubt that Majin Temple had found a resource point for these sorts of scrolls that could summon so many Wind Snakes .

At the moment, all the top clubs in the game were frantically looking for these sorts of things . It didn’t matter how powerful they were . As long as they had enough, they could serve an important purpose at key moments . After all, even if it was a group of boars, they could still trample some dying opponents .

In this Stronghold battle, there was a cataclysmic announcement for next month’s Stronghold wars .

There was no doubt that there would be a massive change in Stronghold battles .

If Lu Li remembered correctly, the main thing was still increasing the difficulty of defending Strongholds, so that there would never be one dominator in the Stronghold battles .

There were still two or three remaining battles before next month, so they didn’t have to worry for now . This was also the reason Lu Li didn’t go to snatch up other Strongholds, because they would not be able to hold onto them .

By the time the preliminary matches were over, Ruling Sword had fought a total of seven rounds . Winning all of them easily, they moved ahead .

Apparently, in the preliminary matches, the number of teams from just the Chinese region who signed up totaled over 300,000 . The preliminary matches eliminated most of them just like that . In the end, there were about 50,000 teams who entered into the first matches . Of these 50,000 teams, 10 000 of them entered into the intermediate round .

After that, they fought it out to be placed in the final 100, the final 16, and so on .

After entering into the next matches, the teams they met with were relatively professional . It was hard to find a team that had major level differences . There were some teams that didn’t even have any level 65 players .

Lu Li was already level 66, and it would not be long before he reached level 68 .

When the players reached level 65, they wore level 65 equipment .

In the matches this time, they didn’t encounter any particularly rich players . Even so, there were some dirt-poor clubs that visited Lu Li, hoping that he could be lenient with them . The price they offered didn’t move Lu Li, and so he firmly declined their offers .

In fact, Judgement Spear also successfully progressed to the next stage .

There was one particular team they fought in the preliminaries, and in the second match of the first round, they met again .

This was fate destined by heaven . Both teams almost fell into tears on the battlefield .

In order to get Judgement Spear to throw the game, in the preliminaries, they gave them $10 million right away . The second time they faced, they offered $20 million . Later, they made a deal, that if they met in the future, money wouldn’t be an issue .

Lu Li had no idea when it came to these schemes of rich people .

But who would reject someone that had money? Both times when they were took the money, they only did so after Lu Li approved .

Judgement Spear was much weaker than Ruling Sword . All of the competing players were new people from the novice training camp, but they were much better than most of the other clubs in the early rounds . Losing a couple matches wasn’t too big of a deal .

By April, the early rounds had finished . Both Ruling Sword and Judgement Spear entered into the next round, and almost everyone had reached level 68 .
