Arena

"Old Wang, hurry up and log on! We're waiting for you to carry us to higher ranks!" The next morning, Old Ma called and woke Old Wang up from his sleep.

He was quite exhausted these past few days, considering he had to go down into the Secret Realm five times in the past few days, and each time he had to be fully focused.

So after the Secret Realm event ended, he unusually lingered in bed, and it wasn't until Old Ma called that he was woken up.

"Come on! Come on! We've been waiting for you to carry us to higher ranks. Let's try a few games first, then we'll finish our daily quests," Old Ma called out to Wang Qianduo as he logged in.

Accompanying him were the Yu Sisters and Night Owl. Sword of Miracles, Song in the Clouds, Sister Hua, Lin Qimeng, and Xiao Hai had already gone to the Arena to test their skills.

"Wait, let me see the rules first!" Wang Qianduo said.

In the updated Arena, Player level 10 and above can enter the arena space through Player own Virtual World.

Once inside the Arena, Player can choose between single-player, two-player, or five-player battles.

These competitive modes all have both matchmaking and ranked modes, and Player can also create their own rooms for matches.

These things were announced yesterday, and people were prepared.

However, only the matchmaking mode is actually available through the system; the ranked mode was added by the company operating Mecha World, and the game itself does not have this feature.

Therefore, the season rewards are paid by the game guilds, and the company operating Mecha World is quite straightforward; they simply provide the money directly.

They give 100 million to the top team at the end of the season. Because of this game, their company is really not short of money now.

Although they don't control the game and don't earn much money from it, they do collect commissions from all transactions within the game.

Moreover, although they don't control the games themselves, they control the patents for the gaming devices, and that's the real money.

Old Wang only glanced at the rules casually; there wasn't much to see, as they were really nothing new.

Lin Qimeng and her group were in a team, which was something they had planned the night before.

Those five players are the mainstays of their Future Club. Don't get me wrong, their Club has already been established and is called Future.

Lin Qimeng is the boss, providing both the money and the venue; she also holds the largest share.

Then there's Old Wang, who provided a large amount of goods for the Club's warehouse and held the second-largest stake.

Then there are Sword of Miracles and Song in the Clouds, who are currently the highest-ranked star professional players in the Club globally and are also the face of the entire Club. The other members of the team have equal shareholdings.

However, the Club currently only has 10 people, and they have just established their own Mercenary. Since they haven't made a profit yet, their shares are just so-so.

The reason Lin Qimeng and her teammates are considered the main force is that they will be competing in Professional Competition in the future. Their lineup is already quite Perfect, and they are currently working on improving their teamwork.

Of course, Old Wang's team is also going to the Professional Circuit, but apart from Old Wang, the other players on their team are substitutes for the first team.

Apart from Old Ma, most of the people on their team are pretty laid-back; the Yu Sisters and Night Owl don't seem to have much ambition for their careers.

While Old Ma has ambitions, compared to Top-Tier Profession players like Sword of Miracles, he still needs time to grow.

He Flag Duel against Sword of Miracles in seven duels, and never managed to whittle down even a third of his opponent's health.

The gap between Normal Professional Rank player and a Top-Tier Profession player is truly significant.

Of course, they have made different sacrifices. Sword of Miracles is 30 years old this year, making him the oldest player in the team.

He became a professional player at the age of 16, and from the day he entered the professional arena until today, he has never spent less than 5 hours training every day on average.

Note that this refers to training time, not the time spent on Professional Competition or leveling up in games.

If all of these are taken into account, he works more than 13 hours a day.

He always says that his talent is average, which is true, but there is no doubt that he is a true hard worker.

It was precisely because of such hard work that he was able to achieve his current skill level, but unfortunately he encountered a terrible guild and terrible people.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be awkwardly ranked 11th in the world; he should at least be in the top 5.

Old Wang is actually the main player, and Lin Qimeng is his substitute.

Sword of Miracles is the tank, Sister Hua is the support, Xiao Hai is the assassin, Song in the Clouds is the agile marksman, and Old Wang is the Magic Damage Dealer.

This is their Perfect team composition.

But if those people were there to hone their skills and teamwork, and not to rank up, then that's fine.

If he brings Old Wang along, he won't be able to kill all five opponents by himself, so what's the point of honing his skills?

So Old Wang was relegated to the second team, to help these lazy bums climb the ranks.

Wow! Old Wang, where did you get those wings?

After everyone entered the Arena and summoned their Mecha, Yu Xiaoyu was surprised to see Dawn behind Wang Qianduo.

"My Champion Reward! Isn't it awesome?" Old Wang said, even Dawn a little.

"Yes, yes! So handsome!" the Yu Sisters nodded in unison.

"It's a pity that everything in that box was bound to the player; otherwise, if you could choose a weapon that you could carry, our Club would feel like we were taking off!" Old Wang said.

"Then why don't you work harder so you can make some unbound ones for us in the future?" Old Ma said.

"Um... I'll just be polite!"

"Ha ha!"

"How do we fight later?" Night Owl asked.

"I'll go up in the first match to test the waters for you guys and see how strong our opponents are."

Then, if you guys also want to practice your skills, you can go first, and I'll support you.

"If you don't want to go, then I'll go, is that okay?" Old Wang asked.

"OK, go!" Yu Xiaoyu

"Sister, be civilized! Be civilized! Mind your manners, or you'll never get married!" Yu Xiaoxin.

"Get out! Don't curse me!"

Haha (ω)hiahiahia

Amidst laughter and chatter, Old Ma selected to start the ranked match, and they quickly found a match and entered the battlefield.

The Arena's battlefield, like the Training Ground, is an unknown space.

The scene where Old Wang and the others were located was a harsh, unpleasant environment next door.

Here, sand and stones fly everywhere, and the mountains are shaped into strange forms by wind erosion.

After entering the space, Old Wang saw their opponents in the distance. After a 60-second wait, he got up and flew out as planned.

Just as the group opposite them saw a white Mecha with blue arms cutting through the yellow sand and heading straight for them.

Just as they were preparing to focus their fire and kill it instantly, the Mecha stopped before it even reached their attack range. Then they saw the Mecha throw a Plasma at them from a distance, and then they were back in the Arena space.

"Confirmed! The strength isn't great; they're all level 10 Mecha!"

Having won by wiping out the opposing team, the group returned to the Arena, Old Wang said to the other four.

"Alright! You can play support next game, you're giving me absolutely no gaming experience!" Old Ma and the others said.

"Okay!"

So they quickly started the second match, which was played in a snowy, icy environment.

Once the preparation time for entering the battle space was over, Old Wang took to the air again. However, this time he wasn't going to wipe out the team, but rather to use his Fiery Golden Eyes' ultra-long-range vision to detect the enemy's location.

"They're at our 6 o'clock position," Old Wang said after looking around. He then cast Damage-Reducing Magic Energy Shield on Old Ma and activated the Basic Skill: Wind's Blessing, which grants +20 Movement Speed to the entire team.

"Kids, you've been buffed! Go and feed them!" Old Wang said after applying the buffs.

Everyone:(_)

They all rolled their eyes at Old Wang, then adjusted their formation towards the 6 o'clock direction and launched Ambush in that direction.

In this snowy terrain, not only did Old Wang and his group lack visibility, but the other side did as well.

Moreover, they didn't have the same field of vision as Old Wang, so they were still confused when Old Wang and the others approached.

So Old Ma seized the opportunity, Ambush into the center of their ranks, and then stunned all five of them with a War Rhino Trample.

The Night Owl immediately followed, throwing out three Stun Grenade in quick succession to provide further control.

The principle behind Mecha dizziness is said to be that the person in the Mecha space temporarily loses control of the Mecha. Old Wang doesn't know the specifics because he has never been dizzy from it.

"Maybe one day I can ask Lao Ye to give it a try, so I won't be caught off guard by fainting!"

Today is a holiday and my birthday, so I'm going out to have some fun. Only one chapter today!
