King of Assassins

Arctic Hall, the largest comprehensive venue on Taiwei Star. It can accommodate a million spectators.

The finals and sub-regional competitions are all held in the Arctic Hall.

Because it is the opening ceremony, the venue is packed with spectators. The main reason for coming is to experience the atmosphere; what's being watched is actually not that important.

If it's just to watch the competition, watching the live broadcast on the Celestial Net would have a better effect.

The grand opening ceremony performance lasted for about an hour. Mainly songs and dances, all by top celebrity artists.

The culture of the Central Star Realm is close enough to be regarded as a huge whole.

The top stars of the Central Star Realm all have billions of fans. The programs performed live are also very exciting.

After all, it is a live broadcast facing the entire Alliance, with a huge influence. For the performing celebrities, it's also a very important opportunity to show up. They can't mess it up.

After the opening ceremony, as the top seed team from the group and also the host, Taiwei University and Cloud Light University were scheduled to compete in the opening ceremony match.

This is also the advantage of being the host. You can enjoy the treatment of the finals level.

Taiwei University was very well prepared, with Song Yunxi as the captain appearing third. Her Beidou Seven Stars Sword was extremely dazzling, sweeping away two experts from Cloud Light University.

Song Yunxi's debut was nearly perfect, becoming the dream goddess of countless otakus.

The persona of a genius Sword Dao girl was successfully spread to every corner of the Alliance.

The search index for Song Yunxi on the Celestial Net surged to a very large magnitude.

This is the charm of the Sword Dao finals, and also the value of the Sword Dao finals.

After the opening ceremony, the huge venue was divided into eight arenas for eight groups to compete in.

Golden Bull University, as the last in the group, also played in the first round, facing Chang'an University.

According to Gao Xuan's suggestion, the Sword Dao uniforms of Golden Bull University were changed to white.

The head coach Ji Xiuying gently clapped her hands and said, "Next, all matches will be arranged by Gao Xuan. Does everyone understand?"

"Understood."

Lan Tianshou, Bai Yunfeng, and others responded uniformly; they also did not dare to show any opposition.

What a joke, all the major noble families of Taurus have to kneel at Gao Xuan's feet and call him father. How dare these few little people compete with Gao Xuan.

Didn't you see Coach Ji Xiuying was obediently handing over all the power to Gao Xuan?

Lan Tianshou and others all looked eagerly at Gao Xuan; they knew they couldn't win. But this is a competition facing the entire Alliance, and they don't know how many people are watching them.

At least, the Twelve Star Domain would focus on their team.

Being able to compete in front of the people of their hometown, even if they lose, they can still show their face.

Gao Xuan could understand this group's thoughts, he said, "Let's follow the normal order of appearance, Tian Ge first, Bai Yunfeng second, Lan Tianshou third, Qingshang fourth."

Lan Tianshou and Bai Yunfeng were both greatly surprised. Gao Xuan was being gracious by giving them the opportunity to appear.

Gao Xuan also pointed out a few strategies for them to deal with on stage. Although the opponents are all a lineup of Sword Heroes, their cultivation is not high, and at least Lan Tianshou has a little chance to win.

As for Lan Tiange and Bai Yunfeng, it's just a chance to show their face. The main thing is not to lose too badly.

Gao Xuan gave Lan Tiange some special instructions, and during this period, Lan Tiange hadn't sought out Gao Xuan. Facing Gao Xuan's guidance, Lan Tiange just listened silently without speaking.

After the sound of the drums, Lan Tiange, dressed in silver-white armor, appeared. Her opponent was a Silver Sword Hero from Chang'an University. Also a very pretty girl.

After the two girls saluted each other, they brandished their swords and engaged in battle.

With Gao Xuan's pointers, Lan Tiange maneuvered everywhere, trying to roam without fighting. Her swordsmanship was mediocre, but her body technique was practiced well. After spending some time with Gao Xuan, she also got some guidance, and her body technique showed some ingenuity.

After maneuvering for over a dozen moves, the opponent's girl became impatient, directly unleashing Sword Intent to lock onto Lan Tiange, and ended the battle with a sword tip on Lan Tiange's chest.

Although Lan Tiange lost, the audience gave her enthusiastic applause.

After all, Lan Tiange was very pretty, her body technique was agile and elegant, and even though she lost the battle, it was very aesthetic. That was enough.

On the Battle Net platform, there were even many comments saying, "My wife is so beautiful."

"How did my wife lose..."

"Draw your sword, the enmity for taking my wife cannot be tolerated!"

Aside from a few who were there for fun, most of the viewers on Battle Net came from the Chang'an Star Realm and the Twelve Star Domain.

Lan Tiange was not considered very famous at Golden Bull University. This time, her name spread across the Twelve Star Domain. You could say her fame skyrocketed.

The Lan Family People who followed the competition were quite excited. Noble families need fame and honor the most. The value in this is hard to measure specifically with money.

The core experts of the Lan Family were mostly swept away by Gao Xuan. Now they are in a decline and need such fame to boost morale.

The audience of the Twelve Star Domain felt that Lan Tiange performed very well. After all, the opponent was a Sword Hero, and being able to maneuver for over a dozen moves was already very impressive.

Even if one isn't too familiar with Sword Dao, they can see that Lan Tiange's body technique was indeed exquisite.

The on-site spectators, Song Fei, Qin Rong, including Qin Jian and Zhou He, also gave high praise to Lan Tiange's performance.

Qin Rong said, "This little girl's body technique variation is agile and lively; there's something there. She's just at a disadvantage because her cultivation is too poor."

Song Fei also nodded, "It seems the Swordsmanship heritage of the Twelve Star Domain is indeed quite good."

However, the second match greatly surprised Qin Rong, Song Fei, and other spectators.

Bai Yunfeng, who appeared second, was knocked out in one sword's draw as soon as he raised his sword.
