Competition
While everyone was buzzing about the treasure chest, the Squad Competition started in the afternoon.
The selection process for the Squad Competition was simple: the system set up 10,000 competition venues and then randomly assigned registered teams to them.
The top 10 teams from each competition advance to the next round of selection; it's very simple and straightforward.
After the competition began, Old Wang and his team found themselves in a Jungle Ruins, an environment filled not only with enemies but also with various traps and mechanisms.
Old Wang and his group had only taken a few steps when a huge rock came hurtling towards them, but Lin Qimeng stepped forward and cleaved it in two with a single stroke.
Then Old Wang unleashed Chain Lightning attacks in one direction, and a team of people screamed in agony as they were instantly eliminated.
This team only heard the commotion and came to check it out, never expecting that they would be eliminated because of it.
Meanwhile, countless people witnessed Old Wang and his team's performance, and because of Old Wang's fame, they were the focus of the broadcast.
Old Wang and his group were unaware of all this. After dealing with the group, Old Wang flew into the sky to observe the battlefield and, at the same time, to find out where the "center of the Poison Circle" was.
In large-scale battle royale games like PUBG, it's impossible not to have Poison Circle), because without Poison Circle control, the entire match would take far too long.
"The center is quite far to the east, shall we go directly there?" Old Wang said to Sister Hua after landing, having confirmed the center.
"Let's just go straight there, there's nothing worth farming on this map!" Sister Hua.
Upon hearing this, everyone cautiously began to head towards the location marked by Old Wang. They were not afraid of the enemies on the battlefield, but the traps made them wary.
What if they trigger a trap that instantly kills the entire team, leading to their elimination? Where can they go to seek justice then?
While Old Wang and his group were on their way, the host had already switched the broadcast to their location for some time.
"The team currently shown on screen is from the first guild, the Future Guild."
We can see that they are really strong. They Tiantian broke through the boulder trap that had killed so many people.
"Indeed! The Second Advancement Dragon Princess is indeed very strong, but I still look forward to that person making a move. It seems his Mecha has also evolved!" Nianmi.
"Okay, look! He suddenly made a move; it turns out a group was approaching them!"
Wow, just one strike, and all seven Mecha were wiped out, without him even glancing at them!
"This is outrageous! Those seven people on the other side must have died without even knowing why. Is this Chain Lightning?"
"Yes! Okay, we saw the system's description; it turns out his Mecha is called Divine Lord of the Elements!"
"They seem determined to go straight to the center; they're incredibly confident!"
The live stream continued, and since Old Wang and his team were heading towards the center and hadn't engaged in any battles with other teams, the main screen quickly switched away.
Only a team like theirs would choose such a route, because they have absolute confidence in themselves.
After all, there aren't many teams in the entire game that can directly confront their team, let alone on this small battlefield.
Opponents of similar stature would avoid them from afar because of Old Wang's presence.
Even ordinary people would avoid a team of Rare Mecha if they saw them, let alone Old Wang's Mecha, which are so extravagant.
Those who dare to attack them are definitely not their competitors.
These people who dare to attack them either have some amazing skills and are very confident, or they're just plain stupid.
Would they be afraid of those with special skills? And those without brains are even less likely to be afraid.
After arriving at the center, Old Wang and the others looked like seven bystanders watching the occasional flares of battle around them.
"Do you think there might be any teams from our guild here?" Sister Hua asked.
"Who knows? We can't get in touch with them!" Old Ma.
On this battlefield, communication was shut down, and only a few of them could communicate normally; of course, they couldn't contact their guildmates either.
"We were too hasty. We should have decided on a combined plan," Old Wang said.
"Who could have known this sooner?" Lin Qimeng asked.
While the group ate melon seeds and chatted, their battlefield gradually stabilized.
The gap between teams is quite large; some teams have all members at level 30, and some even have Rare Mecha.
Some of these teams even included Player who were several levels high; they were just there to collect rewards. These teams had already been mostly eliminated by this point, and the remaining Lucky would soon be eliminated by the Poison Circle.
There are now 21 teams left on Old Wang's battlefield, scattered around Old Wang and his men.
These people clearly recognized Old Wang and his group, so none of the teams dared to step forward.
They are waiting, waiting for other teams to lose patience and rush in to their deaths, or for the Poison Circle to shrink so they can fight each other.
Judging from the situation at the scene, there were clearly no members of the Future Guild among these teams; otherwise, they wouldn't have remained silent and not come to acknowledge each other in this situation.
As the Poison Circle shrank, the battle around Wang Qianduo and his group was reignited, and they were even affected from time to time.
At first, Old Wang and the others didn't want to get involved, but the increasing number of attacks became increasingly annoying, and more importantly, someone was deliberately directing the attacks towards them.
Moreover, such groups are increasing in number, and the quietness of Old Wang and others has emboldened them.
After being deliberately attacked once again, Old Wang took action, unleashing his Photon Ray skill, clearing all the surrounding Player from the battlefield and allowing them to advance directly.
Old Wang could understand what those people were thinking. They just wanted to confirm whether Old Wang and his group were really that strong, and to see if they had a chance to make a name for themselves.
But what Old Wang wants to say is, you can want to make a name for yourselves, but you also need to be prepared to pay the price along the way.
Old Wang's attack was broadcast on the Main Channel, which had just been switched to a different channel.
While some people saw his powerful attack and formidable skills, they also saw his "unreasonableness".
Yes, it's just unreasonable!
What these people witnessed was that the other teams had intentionally avoided them, yet they still managed to eliminate them.
As for their deliberate attack on Old Wang and others in an attempt to gain fame and fortune, they didn't see that at that moment.
If I don't see it, it doesn't exist. If these things don't exist, then you're being domineering.
Old Wang learned about these things after he left the competition, but he didn't care because he loved you.
Since that incident involving stolen equipment, the Future Guild and its reputation have been tarnished.
Even though the person who spread the rumors has already been sentenced, it's not a new saying that spreading rumors is easy but refuting them is incredibly difficult.
As long as those leaked videos exist, they will always face this problem.
At first, Old Wang could still go online and argue with them, but later he got used to it and became too lazy to argue with them anymore.
However, this incident had a much smaller impact than the black market equipment incident because there was no one pushing it from behind.
After all, the Future is different now than it was back then, and those behind the scenes are much more cautious.
Especially after their guilds acquired Starship, they became even more afraid that Old Wang would fight them to the death.

"How's everyone's research going? They're probably our biggest rivals on our road to Claim the Championship. Do you have any good strategies to deal with them?"
After the first day of matches concluded, in the Galaxy Guild's meeting room, Wang Xinghe played all the video footage of Wang Qianduo's moves and then spoke.
"Not easy to deal with!" Light of the Galaxy.
"Yeah, his damage is too high. We might not even have a chance to use our ultimate moves."
"Well, it seems the only way now is to break through level 30!" Wang Xinghe.
Is this one going to be reliable?
"Absolutely reliable, I should have thought of this a long time ago."
"Yes!"
"Who would have thought that Player would be like monsters?"
After the day's competition ended, all the main teams from the major guilds advanced, and they immediately began to study their opponents.
Among them, Old Wang is the one who has been studied the most, after all, his achievements are undeniable and cannot be ignored.
Old Wang, who was being studied by everyone, was not studying his opponent, because he was busy slaughtering sheep.
The massive project of making 10,000 lamb chops is already more than halfway complete. Old Wang senses there must be a big secret behind this task, which is why he's been working so hard on it.
"I hope the reward won't disappoint me too much!"
