"What if I give you a name?" Lu Li can only hope for the next best thing .
"Even if you know their name, do not tell me . Write the name and what you want to say on this and I'll give it to the esteemed Duke," she said as she brought out a sheepskin .
"Do you really have to take things so seriously?" Lu Li thought to himself; he was speechless .
However, he did not continue to bother her . Otherwise, she might get in trouble with the Ravenholdt Faction .
After the hostess had left, Lu Li wrote a letter to Garona on the sheepskin . He wasn't entirely sure whether she was in Ravenholdt or not, but he took a chance .
When he finished writing the letter, he handed it back to her and left .
On the second day of the tournament, Lu Li was the first to fight in the single elimination match .
This was not because their opponents were difficult to deal with, but because he wanted to test out his new weapon . The team they were up against was a small, low-tier guild . This was Ruling Sword's last match in the preliminaries and they had already accumulated enough points to advance to the next stage .
The first player that entered was a Mage . He used his cleanse active as soon as he was crowd-controlled, but before he could fight back, he was stunned again .
After a few skill rotations, the Mage was already on critical HP .
The fight lasted no more than a few seconds before the Mage fell at the dagger of Lu Li .
"Were you even taking it seriously? You're not this bad usually . You could've casted Frost Nova after the cleanse, then flashed away," their leader ranted angrily .
What was even more embarrassing was that he had barely even made a dent on Lu Li's HP bar .
Lu Li still had 90% HP remaining and was standing proudly on the battlefield .
The Mage was ashamed, but felt like as if there was nothing he could do .
"I know that, but that was Lu Li . Before I could do anything, I was stunned again…"
"Don't you have another active that cleanses?!" the leader shouted as he slapped the Mage across his face .
"Brother, he still had Kidney Strike anyways . There was nothing I could have done . " At this point, the poor Mage was close to tears .
"Stop making excuses, you had no chance anyways . You should've just dealt as much damage as you could to him before you died . "
They were treating Lu Li like a Boss instead of another player, hoping to defeat him as a group . That way, even if they lost, it wouldn't look as bad to the spectators .
Even if they all attacked him at the same time, they might not be able to defeat him .
The second to come out was a Warrior .
Warriors naturally countered Thieves, but this one had no intention of defeating Lu Li by himself . They hoped they he could deal some damage to Lu Li's HP bar in order to increase their chances of defeating him .
Lu Li had just tested his damage on a Mage type class and now he could try it on a tankier Warrior .
If the Warrior knew that he was only being used as an experiment, he would probably be furious .
Lu Li had reached Lv45 yesterday and everyone had seen it on the level ranking . However, only the players who closely followed the professional scene would notice that his weapon had changed .
The pros knew that such a drastic increase in his DPS meant that his newly equipped weapon was most likely a Legendary .
Legendary equips were extremely rare and very few players had one . Apparently, Sorrowless' wrist guards were Legendary, but a wrist guard could never compare to a weapon in terms of DPS .
The Warrior knew that there were no chance of him winning, so he tried his best to deal as much damage to Lu Li as possible .
When he was defeated, Lu Li only had 50% HP remaining .
There was nothing that he could do about this . Most, if not all of his attacks were physical damage and Warriors had the highest physical defense in the game .
Thieves were naturally at a disadvantage against Warriors .
The classes in Dawn were somewhat balanced . Although Thieves tended to be stronger than most classes, they still had obvious counters .
The third player was a Warlock who had a few Lifesteal skills . However, Warlocks can Lifesteal if they dealt damage to their enemies . Against Lu Li's numerous crowd-control skills, he had no chance at all and barely lasted longer than the Mage .
When their fifth player was defeated, Lu Li finally finished his clean sweep .
However, this did not mean that his opponents were weak . Anyone who was willing to spend money to join the tournament was a decent player . They would at least be good enough to compete for a spot on a Major Guild PVP team .
After this match, Ruling Sword completed their perfect preliminary matches and advanced into the Promotional Series .
The Promotional Series were much harder . No matter how lucky a team was, it was impossible to match up against weaker teams every time . As such, the teams that made it to the Promotional Series were mostly from the major Guilds .
The competition rules for the Promotional Series hadn't changed . However, the stadium had been upgraded and the number of spectators had increased to a million . Additionally, there were commentators for each individual match, which made the tournament even more professional and intense .
Based on tickets alone, the total profit came to around a $10 million .
The winner received 30% and the loser received 20%, while the remaining 50% went to the gaming company, sponsors and tournament association .
It was all business for the gaming company and tournament association – if there was no profit from holding these tournaments, they wouldn't bother at all . The costs involved included paying the commentators and the special guests that were invited .
As long as you participated in the Promotional Series, you would earn at least $2 million per game .
This was why everyone wanted to start a major Guild .
Profit!
Although most of the profits went towards the guild, the players who participated in the tournament would still earn a few million dollars after a season .
The gaming scene had become a large-scale business .
After his rebirth, LU Li knew that the best way to earn money was to build up his own kingdom before Dawn rose to its true potential .
Because of the advancement of technology and new ideas, there had never been a game that continued in popularity . However, Guilds could last forever, switching from game to game under the same name . Some of the major Guilds in Dawn had a history of over 100 years .
If he could build up a kingdom of his own, he could pass this onto his children, grandchildren and generations to come .
He had been poor in his previous life, but had sworn that he or his descendants would never go back to that life .
After the match was finished, Lu Li returned home to work on his Engineering again .
He had invested all of his time and effort into Engineering for the past few days . Through sheer willpower and his nearly unlimited resources, he managed to grind his Engineering up to Lv240 .
He could now craft useful items such as Goblin Poultryizer .
Goblin Poultryizer: Turns target into a chicken for 5 seconds, assuming the transmogrification polarity has not been reversed…
Lu Li had been looking forward to using this .
For some people, this item might have given off the impression that it had the same effect as the Mage's Polymorph skill .
While they shared similarities, there was a chance of failing, which could turn the user into a chicken . Not only would that turn the fight against you, it would also be extremely embarrassing .
However, the chances of that happening were quite slim and didn't stop Lu Li from crafting it .
