Chapter 630: Gathering of Top Players
Chapter 630: Gathering of Top Players
The list was extensive, comprising a total of 111,000 people.
The list was divided into three parts.
The first part was led by Su Yu's clone and was known as the "Ten Thousand Mage Corps." Currently, it only had about 100 members.
The second part aimed to cultivate 1,000 top players into the "70+700" elite group. These players were almost all from the top 1,000 on the comprehensive power rankings.
The third part, consisting of 100,000 players, were primarily those ranked in the top 100,000 in the game. With a significant resource influx, these players were to be cultivated to reach at least the Fifth Tier.
However, the general public was not very satisfied with this list.
On both the official forums and various social media platforms, many players were discussing and expressing their discontent.
One player on the official forum said, "I took a rough look at the list, and the 100,000 or so players selected are almost all from the top 100 large guilds. Regular guilds don't stand a chance."
Other players chimed in, "This isn't good, right? Many top players from smaller guilds are also very powerful, but they don't get a chance."
"I'm more worried about what happens if the players on the list don't perform well. We can't keep giving them resources if they fail, can we?"
"I think there should be an elimination mechanism. In future versions, new players will rise, and we need to give these new talents a chance to enter the list."
"This list isn't good. Some of the players on it are even worse than me."
After the list was released, the majority of the public opinion was negative.
Even some of the players on the list felt they didn't deserve to be there and thought the opportunity should be given to someone more capable.
After listening to various opinions, the joint government released a "Revised Edition" of the list on the fifth day.
The "Revised Edition" detailed the comprehensive evaluation criteria for cultivation value and opened up the advancement channels, allowing regular players to become part of the list.
It stated that a "Fair Arena" would be established in Forest City. Players of the same profession with equal equipment and skill scores could compete fairly in the arena to improve their comprehensive evaluation scores.
Players without PVP talent could also enhance their scores by completing high-difficulty tasks issued by the joint government.
Once a player's comprehensive evaluation score reached a certain standard, they could replace a player with a lower score on the list of 100,000.
The players on the list of 100,000 were not guaranteed a spot. They had to actively participate in various activities organized by the joint government to improve their scores, or they would be kicked off the list.
After the "Revised Edition" was released, much of the players' dissatisfaction dissipated.
Ambitious regular players began to complete tasks assigned by the joint government or enter the Fair Arena to hone their PVP skills, striving to become part of the list.
Less ambitious players continued to do their jobs as usual, contributing a portion of their income to support the cultivation of more powerful players.
In the afternoon of the fifth day, in a valley north of Forest City.
This valley was several kilometers away from any village or city, with lush trees and a babbling stream, exuding a natural beauty.
On a large tree in the valley, Su Yu's clone sat cross-legged on a thick branch, engrossed in an ancient tome from the Golden Finch Empire.
Below the tree were numerous players learning spatial magic, members of the "Blade of Space" mage corps.
In the clearing among the trees, 144 players were constantly flashing in and out, practicing their spatial spells, while others were busy studying the "Spatial Stone," thoroughly enjoying themselves.
Suddenly, a group of players rapidly approached from the other end of the valley, arriving at their location.
This group of players was quite large, numbering around five hundred.
Noticing their arrival, one of the players put away the ancient book in his spatial ring and waved to the leader of the incoming group: "Snow Leopard, over here!"
The player leading the group was Snow Leopard himself, and the members of his team were no ordinary players. Even a regular player standing there could easily tell that there were many top-tier players in the group.
The group included members from various prestigious guilds: [Range is Truth], [Unbreakable Alliance], [Steel Flood March]; [True Red-Eyed Black Dragon], [Giant God Soldier], [Blue Mountain Well]; [Cloud Shepherd], [Wine Song], [Wind Song]; [Sky Dragon], [Thousand Cups Unfazed], [Neon WasteWater]; and even some independent players like [Ice Black Tea] and [Nerve Blade].
It could be said that, except for Su Yu, all the top 500 players in the game had gathered here!
Of course, Su Yu couldn’t be left out, as his clone was right there.
The clone smiled and waved to the players, leaping down from a branch and issuing an order to the mages: "Form up!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The mages almost simultaneously used [Flash Step], each securing a position and instantly forming a 17x17 square formation.
Seeing the mages' performance, Snow Leopard and the top-tier players were stunned.
While most of the mages were former military personnel, the sudden transformation from a scattered group to a neatly aligned formation was visually striking.
The mages were also surprised.
After all, this group consisted of the top 500 players in the game, all of whom were influential figures in their own right. It wasn’t easy to gather them all in one place.
Besides Snow Leopard, Xu Xiaotian was also at the front of the group.
Xiaotian was seeing Su Yu’s clone for the first time, so she jumped over and flew to his side.
"Is this Su Yu’s clone?" Xiaotian reached out to pinch the clone’s face.
The clone, following Su Yu’s commands, couldn’t make any physical contact with Xiaotian.
So he flashed away from her hand and said coldly, "Of course, you should know this the best, right?"
"I know, but this is the first time I’ve seen your clone."
Xiaotian reached out again, curious about the sensation of touching a clone made of monkey hair.
But Su Yu’s clone was agile, flashing away from her "claw" once more.
"Cough, cough." Snow Leopard, standing to the side, spoke up: "Xiaotian, don’t be silly. Return to the group; we have important matters to discuss."
"Fine." Xiaotian pouted and turned to rejoin the group.
Now, the 500 top-tier players stood in a formation to the right of the mages, though their formation was loose and lacked discipline, it still counted as a team.
Everyone focused on the clone of Su Yu and Snow Leopard at the front, waiting quietly for them to speak.
