The Most Entertaining Mode (Third Update)

On the platform, only Bai Xiaowen and Jiang Yi, the two team captains, remained.

Jiang Yi noticed a hint of hostility in Bai Xiaowen's expression.

Host: "The CUAA League has six different formats, which I believe you two students are already familiar with, so I won't go into detail. Now, let's determine the order in which the two teams ban modes by guessing a number."

In the guessing game, Bai Xiaowen won.

Jiang Yi first disabled it. After thinking for a while, he chose to disable "Boss Challenge Mode".

The host chuckled, "Jiang Yi, the Jinling University Team, has disabled the Boss Challenge Mode, which is the Yi-Yi mode where the two teams won't directly clash. It seems Jiang Yi has a very deep understanding of Bai Xiaowen."

During the defense of Jinghai Base City, Bai Xiaowen, as the main force, killed a Horned Demon Chieftain. Although this video footage is not widely circulated, Jinling University had already regarded Jinghai University as its hypothetical enemy and spent a lot of effort collecting information on Bai Xiaowen, so they naturally saw this video.

When it was Bai Xiaowen's turn to disable it, he tapped the LCD screen with his finger.

The host chuckled, "Jinghai University Captain Bai Xiaowen, has disabled... the Conquest Mode in the SOLO Mode. Can you explain why?"

Bai Xiaowen laughed and said, "Because you can't fight five people at once in Conquest Mode."

A chorus of "Oh!" erupted from the audience, followed by applause.

Jiang Yi's face darkened further.

The host paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Bai Xiaowen is truly humorous. Alright, both sides have finished banning. Next, we will randomly select one of the remaining four modes— SOLO Mode King of the Hill Mode, team battle True Kill Mode, Crystal Destruction Mode, and Resource Raid Mode —as the mode for this opening match. Let's count down from five..."

On the LCD screen, a large roulette wheel appeared. After two game modes disappeared, the roulette wheel pointer began to spin wildly.

"Stop!"

Finally, the roulette wheel stopped moving.

"Okay! The match mode has been confirmed as... Team Deathmatch, Crystal Destruction Mode!"

The host loudly introduced, "Crystal Destruction Mode is widely recognized as the most entertaining game mode, derived from MOBA esports games like DOTA, League of Legends, and Honor of Kings from the Common Era! However, instead of virtual Hero Tier, the participants are now awakened warriors from two teams!"

"Now, we will select the map type for the match. The match map will be selected from twenty-two versions of games such as DOTA, League of Legends, and Honor of Kings."

The roulette wheel spun once more.

"The map for the game has been confirmed; it will be the League of Legends 7 version."

"After calculation and rounding, the average level of the awakened players on both sides in this competition is level 4."

"This match will use a Tier 4 map. The power increases for buildings, minions, and neutral monsters have been adjusted."

"The S-01 Psionic Training Ground is currently undergoing map simulation and rule setting. Please wait a few minutes. The two team captains, please take the elevator to the basement level for pre-match preparations."

Bai Xiaowen and Jiang Yi walked towards the elevator one after the other.

In the elevator, Jiang Yi looked at Bai Xiaowen and said, "You're doomed. I know you inside and out, but you know nothing about me. Most importantly, I have complete control over you."

"Want to make a bet?"

Bai Xiaowen used Insight while speaking.

He had always been curious about where Jiang Yi got his confidence from, and how he could possibly have him under his thumb.

Jiang Yi sneered and shook his head, "I don't take such pointless bets. Are you using your talent to Insight my strength? It's useless, you can't see anything."

As Jiang Yi spoke, Bai Xiaowen also received a hint:

"Target is in a disguised state due to the special item: Demon Blood. Insight check failed."

"Unknown factors are interfering, Data Disorder..."

"Unknown factors are interfering... This will cost 400 Psionic Points. Yes/No?"

Bai Xiaowen understood; the same situation had occurred when he subdued the Rageclaw! Clearly, this "unknown factor" that the Spirit Realm Rules could not determine referred to the Eye of Evolution.

The true priority of the Eye of Evolution is definitely astonishingly high; it can "Piercing" Jiang Yi's Demon Blood disguise. However, activating the true power of the eye requires 400 Psionic Points.

Bai Xiaowen chose no. A faint red light appeared in his left eye, but it quickly disappeared.

In his opinion, Jiang Yi's information wasn't worth 400 Psionic Points...

Moreover, once Jiang Yi enters the competition map, the item-enhanced status on him will definitely be automatically removed. At that time, Bai Xiaowen's talent Insight will be free to use, and he can save some Psionic Points by viewing the information.

"You really went to great lengths, even expending a special item," Bai Xiaowen laughed. "However, after today's battle, all your hidden secrets will be exposed, won't they?"

Jiang Yi said calmly, "Winning this match guarantees my team's advancement, so it's worth it."

The two stepped out of the elevator and arrived at the entrance of training field S-01.

The S-Tier training ground has an internal space of one square kilometer and is a dedicated competition venue where many special rules for recreational competitions can be set up.

Based on the results of the guessing game, Jiang Yi's Jinling University had the first choice of which side of the map to play, and he chose the blue side. Bai Xiaowen's Jinghai University team naturally became the Purple Side.

Under the guidance of the notary, the two teams entered the training ground one after the other.

The moment Bai Xiaowen stepped in, he was enveloped in white light. A notification from the Spirit Realm Rules appeared:

"You have entered a private space within the Spirit Realm Plane. This private space has its own independent rules."

"Your level will be temporarily capped at level 1. Killing minions, jungle monsters, enemy awakened beings, or destroying turrets and the crystal will grant you temporary experience points to unlock your level."

"Your equipment will be temporarily sealed, including but not limited to exclusive equipment. The actions described above will earn you temporary gold, which can be used to unseal your equipment."

"Your skills will be temporarily sealed. Currently, all your skills are at level 1. As you level up, your skill levels will increase accordingly, but will not exceed the skill levels you currently possess."

"You will not truly die after your Life Value are depleted; you will respawn at the base's Fountain of Life after a short period of time."

"You have acquired a special item: the Tactical Wristwatch. You can contact your teammates through the Team Channel on the Tactical Wristwatch, and you can also contact your teammates and enemies simultaneously through all channels. The Tactical Wristwatch also has a miniature map function."

"..."

After a series of notification messages, the white light in front of Bai Xiaowen's eyes finally dissipated.

With a whoosh, five beams of light shot straight into the sky as Bai Xiaowen and his four teammates appeared simultaneously in the hot spring at the Purple Side's base.

This is just for fun, please don't take it too seriously. Σ(°△°|||)
